The system didn't respond. Yaohua couldn't bear to eat all the fruits. She put some away in her space.
There weren't many types of grains in the Phoenix Clan. Her elder brothers must rarely get to eat such fruits. Moreover, her fifth elder brother, Zhuyuan, was quite good at planting. Maybe he could figure out a way to grow them.
Thinking of this, Yaohua suddenly lost her appetite.
Her elder brothers were still missing!
"Brother System, can you find out the whereabouts of my other elder brothers?"
The system remained silent, as if it hadn't heard her.
Yaohua sighed silently. She put down her chopsticks and prepared to go out for a walk.
Zhao Wu had stepped in for her several times. The demons in the mansion had seen the situation clearly and no longer dared to provoke her easily.
When Zhao Wu came over, the sunlight was filtering through the dappled tree canopy and falling on Yaohua. She was sitting on a swing, and her purple dress glowed like jade. The whole phoenix seemed to be shining.
However, when she tilted her head, all her sorrow fell into Zhao Wu's eyes.
"Brother Zhao Wu, are you done with your work?" Although she tried to cheer up, she still sounded a bit listless.
"Who has upset you again?"
As soon as Zhao Wu said this, he was surprised to find that his voice was unnaturally soft.
He frowned slightly, dissatisfied with his own performance just now.
"Brother Zhao Wu, why did you put on the mask again?"
Although Zhao Wu, this demon, wasn't that great, it had to be said that he was good-looking. Although he couldn't compare to her master, Yaohua was making the best of a bad situation and thought he was okay.
"I don't have to wear it." Zhao Wu averted his gaze. He turned his head and took off the mask.
Seeing that Yaohua was in low spirits, he turned back again. "Are you unhappy?"
It would be strange if Yaohua could be happy after being forced to come here.
"Brother Zhao Wu, I'm thinking about my elder brothers." She gave Zhao Wu a mournful look. "Do you know the whereabouts of my other elder brothers?"
Zhao Wu frowned. His eyebrows seemed a bit solemn. Just when Yaohua thought something bad had happened to her elder brothers, he finally spoke.
"You have more than two elder brothers?"
Yaohua sneered inwardly. See, he didn't even know how many elder brothers she had, but still wanted to be joined with her. The demons these days were really going downhill.
Seemingly seeing the condemnation in Yaohua's eyes, Zhao Wu began to explain. "The Demon Clan doesn't pay much attention to kinship. So, I haven't specifically paid attention to this aspect."
Yaohua rolled her eyes. She shook the golden chain on her hand. "Loosen this a bit for me. I'll show you what my elder brothers look like."
Zhao Wu flicked out a cold demonic aura, and the golden chain on Yaohua's hand was immediately untied.
She looked at him in surprise.
"I'll put it back on later."
Yaohua pouted.
She thought this guy really wasn't going to let her use it anymore.
"If I don't put the golden chain on you, you'll run away." Zhao Wu's good-looking face was a bit cold and hard. "You're my Taoist partner. You can only stay by my side."
Yaohua ignored his words. She used the True Fire of the Phoenix to draw the images of her elder brothers in the air.
After she finished drawing, the golden chain closed tightly around her wrist again.
"Have you seen them?"
"I've seen him." Zhao Wu raised his hand and pointed at Yanling. "When I went to look for you, he was protecting some mortals and hiding underground. He seemed to be seriously injured."
"Injured?"
Zhao Wu suddenly felt Yaohua's gaze was a bit piercing. He pursed his lips and was a bit unhappy. "It wasn't the demons who injured him!"
"Then can you take me to find him?"
"Now the outside is filled with the Karma Fire. I can't take you out."
The beads on Yaohua's head seemed to dim a bit.
Zhao Wu said, "Don't worry. I'll send a message to the Phoenix Clan. Your father and elder brothers should find a way to save him."
Yaohua thanked him listlessly.
For some reason, seeing her like this, Zhao Wu felt as if there was a stone blocking his heart.
"Your Highness, the Left General has returned."
The deputy general's voice suddenly woke him up from that strange emotion. Zhao Wu hardened his heart again.
After Zhao Wu left, Yaohua was about to follow him when the female immortal came over again.
She was holding a fruit drink and looked a bit at a loss. "Fairy."
"Did Zhao Wu send this again?" Yaohua was a bit surprised. Zhao Wu had left in such a hurry. She thought he had forgotten about her.
"His Highness said the breakfast was too greasy and asked the fairy to have some fruit drink to get rid of the greasiness."
If the female immortal hadn't said this, it would have been fine. But after she said it, Yaohua really felt a bit uncomfortable in her stomach.
She took the fruit drink, and suddenly a strange feeling welled up in her heart.
The female immortal looked at her timidly. "Fairy?"
Yaohua put down the fruit drink. "I'm too full. I'll drink it later."
Watching the female immortal leave, Yaohua was a bit confused.
Could it be that she had felt wrong just now? There was actually nothing wrong with this female immortal?
Forget it. First, go and see what Zhao Wu was in such a hurry to do.
She followed the direction Zhao Wu had left in and deliberately avoided the demons on the way.
A faint female voice came from the study. It sounded a bit familiar.
Yaohua pressed her ear against the door, but the voice inside suddenly stopped.
Then, there was the sound of footsteps.
Yaohua was just about to hide, but then thought it was unnecessary. After all, Zhao Wu's cultivation seemed to be higher than hers.
She took two steps back and confronted Zhao Wu who had just opened the door boldly.
Zhao Wu paused. His expression didn't seem surprised. "If you want to listen, come in and listen."
"Can I listen?" Yaohua pointed at herself in surprise.
She was even more curious. What were they talking about that they didn't even try to avoid her?
"Are you coming in or not?" Zhao Wu had limited patience. Seeing her like this, he was about to close the door.
"Come in, come in, come in!"
Yaohua quickly slipped in under Zhao Wu's arm and immediately saw another person in the study.
"Yo, little princess. Long time no see." Dian Zhu sized her up and down. The teasing in her eyes grew stronger. "Your cultivation has improved a lot. Have you dual-cultivated with His Highness?"
What did dual-cultivation mean?
Yaohua was full of doubts. But seeing Dian Zhu's malicious look, she immediately understood that what she said must not be something good. "It's none of your business! Didn't I beat you hard enough last time?"
When it came to the last incident, Dian Zhu's smile stiffened a lot, but it returned to its previous state in just a moment.
"The little princess's marriage ceremony is approaching. Why don't you invite the Sixth God Lord over too? I haven't seen him for a long time. I miss him a bit."
"You don't even think about harming my Sixth Elder Brother again!" Yaohua was furious. This woman had harmed her Sixth Elder Brother last time. What kind of tricks was she up to this time?
"The little princess will marry His Highness. In the future, the Phoenix Clan and His Highness will be a family. I'm working for His Highness. How could I harm the Sixth God Lord?"
She spoke more and more smoothly, completely ignoring that Yaohua's little face was already red with anger.
Zhao Wu coughed lightly. "Dian Zhu."
When he spoke, a hint of threat flashed across his purple eyes, but Dian Zhu wasn't afraid at all.
"Your Highness has a new love and has forgotten the old one?"
Yaohua's look at her immediately changed.
So, Zhao Wu and Dian Zhu had that kind of relationship?
