Chapter 71: Auntie Long, Is My Dad Handsome?
Ai Kaorou?
The Spirit Body glanced at Chu Chen, speechless. Even though they were told to use aliases, they shouldn’t have chosen such a fake-sounding name.
“Yes!”
Chu Chen nodded his little head, munching on grilled meat while asking.
Liu Feilong murmured, “Many years ago, a mysterious person in blood robes gave it to me. Saintly Sense cannot detect it, so I don’t know who he is. He asked me to join them and helped me cultivate. The condition was to find an opportunity to kill the old Provincial Governor and secretly control Lánzhōu. I was about to succeed, but unexpectedly, two damn brats came out of nowhere and ruined my plan.”
“Sister, is he talking about us?”
Chu Chen, while eating grilled meat, turned to look at Chu Xin and asked.
“Yes!”
Chu Xin nodded.
“Then did we do a good deed?”
Chu Chen asked with a hopeful look.
“Of course, the people we beat up are all bad guys,” Chu Xin said with certainty.
“Good, good, good! Hehe!”
Chu Chen laughed excitedly, then looked at Long Yufei and asked, “Auntie Long, do you have any more questions?”
Long Yufei pondered for a moment, then shook her head, “No, I don’t.”
The truth about the previous Provincial Governor’s death had been revealed, but another mysterious person in blood robes had appeared.
Liu Feilong was just a tool, and the person in blood robes behind him was the real mastermind.
But there was too little information about the person in blood robes, and he was obviously wary of Liu Feilong, never appearing in his true form. Even if they asked further, they wouldn’t get any answers.
“Okay.”
Chu Chen nodded his little head. With a wave of his small hand, the Truth Talisman stuck to Liu Feilong’s head instantly turned into ashes.
Liu Feilong instantly woke up and angrily said, “Even if you kill me, you will all die sooner or later.”
While being interrogated by the Truth Talisman, his consciousness was actually clear.
If he could mobilize the True Qi in his body, or the power of Rules, he could completely get rid of those Saint-level Truth Talismans.
It was a pity that the giant hand was gripping his body, suppressing the True Qi and the power of Rules within him. He had no way to resist.
He knew he was doomed, so he didn’t waste his breath begging for mercy.
The Spirit Body looked at Chu Xin and Chu Chen and said softly, “Close your eyes and cover your ears. Don’t look, don’t listen.”
“Oh!”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen nodded obediently, washed their little hands with water, then covered their ears and closed their eyes.
The Spirit Body made a grasping motion in the air, and the giant hand instantly contracted.
With a bang, Liu Feilong’s body instantly exploded, leaving no trace behind.
“Alright, you can open your eyes now.”
The Spirit Body landed beside Chu Xin and Chu Chen and said softly.
“Dad, have some grilled meat.”
Chu Chen opened his eyes, picked up a large piece of grilled meat, and handed it to the Spirit Body with a smile.
The Spirit Body sat down in front of the grill, took the grilled meat, took a bite, and smiled, “Not bad, your skills have improved.”
“Of course, I practice grilling every day.”
Chu Chen immediately raised his little head, his chubby little face full of pride.
Chu Xin pulled Long Yufei to sit beside them and said with a smile, “Dad, this is Auntie Long.”
“Hello!”
Chu Feng nodded to Long Yufei and said, “The two children are naturally mischievous. I apologize for any trouble they may have caused Provincial Governor Long.”
“No, no.”
Long Yufei quickly waved her hands and said, “Ai Chirou and Ai Kaorou have helped me a lot along the way. If it weren’t for them, I might not have made it to the Provincial Capital. I should be thanking them.”
Chu Chen looked at the Spirit Body, then at Long Yufei. He scooted closer to the Spirit Body and asked in a low voice, “Dad, is Auntie Long pretty?”
“Quite pretty, why do you ask?”
The Spirit Body glanced at Long Yufei and truthfully answered with two words, then asked with a puzzled look.
Chu Chen asked with a smile, “Should we let Dad marry Auntie Long and bring her home to be our little mom?”
◈◈◈
When Long Yufei heard this, her face turned red, and she was at a loss for words.
The Spirit Body glared at Chu Chen and said apologetically to Long Yufei, “Children’s words are innocent, please don’t take offense, Provincial Governor Long.”
“It’s alright!”
Long Yufei shook her head.
*Pa!*
A delicate little hand lightly slapped Chu Chen’s head. Chu Xin, with a look of disappointment, scolded, “You brat, are you itching for a spanking? How many times have I told you, we’re not here to find a wife for Dad, we’re here to find Mom.”
“Oh!”
Chu Chen rubbed his little head, shrank his neck, and focused on eating his grilled meat, not daring to say another word.
*Pfft!*
Long Yufei couldn’t help but laugh as she watched the two siblings bickering.
These two little ones were just too adorable.
The Spirit Body shook his head slightly. He didn’t have this part of the memory and didn’t remember the two children’s mother. He patted Chu Xin and Chu Chen’s little heads and said, “My time is up. Remember what I said, if you encounter a Martial Emperor, don’t try to fight them yourselves. Summon me immediately, do you understand?”
“We understand, Dad.”
Chu Xin and Chu Chen threw themselves into the Spirit Body’s arms, reluctant to let go.
The Spirit Body looked at the two children, a hint of reluctance also appearing in his eyes.
Other memories and emotions were blocked by the main body, but the memories and emotions related to the two children remained.
“When you go out and cause trouble, um, I mean, when you go out to play, it’s best to wear the masks I made for you.”
The Spirit Body thought for a moment and added.
Those masks were specially made for the two children, not only to conceal their faces and prevent detection by Martial Saints, and even Martial Emperors, but also to serve as Peak Saint Weapons that could resist soul attacks.
“We understand, Dad.”
“We’ll put them on now.”
The siblings nodded, and masks appeared in their hands, which they put on their faces.
Chu Chen’s mask was in the shape of a coiled golden dragon, while Chu Xin’s mask was in the shape of a phoenix with spread wings.
Both masks only covered the upper half of their faces, revealing their mouths and noses, and overall exuded an aura of dominance and nobility.
The moment they put on the masks, Long Yufei felt the two little toddlers disappear from her senses. If she couldn’t see them with her eyes, she would have thought they had vanished.
These were two more extraordinary treasures.
Long Yufei sighed inwardly. It was good to have a powerful father.
After a moment, the Spirit Body’s figure slowly dissipated.
“Sister, I miss Dad a little. Should we go back and find him?”
Chu Chen, with his mouth full of grilled meat and tears in his eyes, asked with a sob.
Chu Xin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said stubbornly, “No, we haven’t rescued Mom yet, we can’t go back. We can still summon Dad’s Spirit Body many times. If we miss him, we can just summon him to see him.”
“Alright.”
Chu Chen also wiped his tears and nodded his little head.
Long Yufei was a little speechless. That was a Martial Emperor-level clone. Its summoning times shouldn’t be wasted unless absolutely necessary, not just to see him.
“When we rescue Mom and bring her back with us, Dad will be very happy,” Chu Xin said with a hopeful look.
“Yes!”
Chu Chen nodded vigorously, took a bite of grilled meat, then leaned closer to Long Yufei and asked in a low voice, “Auntie Long, is my Dad handsome?”
“He is.”
Long Yufei was still thinking about how to comfort the two little toddlers when Chu Chen suddenly asked her this question. She subconsciously nodded.
Then she reacted, and just as she was about to explain, she saw Chu Xin slap Chu Chen’s little head and scold him like a little adult, “You little rascal, are you doing this again? Just watch, I will beat your butt for sure.”
“Sister, spare me! I won’t ask again.” Chu Chen shrank his neck and ran away.
“You, stop right there,” Chu Xin chased after him relentlessly. “When we rescue Mom, I’m going to tell her that you keep trying to find a wife for Dad. Let’s see if she doesn’t beat your butt.”
*Pfft!*
Long Yufei, watching the two siblings chasing and bickering, burst out laughing.
