Chapter 4432: Leaving

Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Listening to his words, the Black Tortoise Monarch nodded, “I see, since that’s the case, I’ll also send some people to secretly inquire about their whereabouts, and if there’s any news of them, I’ll definitely let you know at the first opportunity.”

“Many thanks.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze arched his hand.

“Since you are here, stay on for some more days!” Saying that, remembering that he only saw the two of them and did not see anyone following, his face was slightly surprised as he asked, “Only the two of you came together this time? Your subordinates didn’t come?”

“No, we arranged for them to go searching and didn’t let them follow us.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said, glancing at Feng Jiu by his side, saying, ‘This time, only the two of us came out.”

Seeing this, Black Tortoise Monarch nodded and said, “Then I’ll have someone prepare a resting place for you guys, you”ve come all the way here, so you can rest here with us first!”

Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu stood up and said, “No, this time, we mainly came to talk to you about Hao’er’s situation, so we won’t stay long.”

Seeing that they insisted on leaving, Black Tortoise Monarch didn’t force them any further and said, “Alright then, I’ll see you two off!” With that, he made a gesture of invitation and walked out with them.

He personally sent them away before returning, and when he saw his wife standing at the entrance of the hall with her child in her arms in a daze, he walked over and asked gently, “Why haven’t you gone back yet?”

“Husband, do you think our son can still come back?” She couldn’t help but ask, worry evident in her eyes.

“Sigh, who knows! Nowadays, we don’t even know where his whereabouts are, so how do we know if he can still come back?” Black Tortoise Monarch let out a light sigh, and his mood was also a bit gloomy.

“If he had obediently stayed here and didn’t run off to that Peach Blossom Ridge, I guess he wouldn’t have encountered Feng Jiu and the others, not to mention that nothing like this would have happened.” She couldn’t help but complain, “You say, in case if he can’t come back, then …”

Seeing her heart complaining, Black Tortoise Monarch shook his head, sighed softly and said, “Madam, back then, if Feng Jiu did not save our child, and brought him around to teach him carefully, there would not be today’s him, although our son is only eight or nine years old, but what he learnt since he was young was different from other people, don’t worry about it! Even if he is out alone, he will definitely be safe and sound, but their pair of children are still less than three years old, which should be fine if they are with Hao’er, if not, I’m afraid that …”

Upon hearing this, Lady Xuanwu then said, “I know, that’s why I didn’t blame them just now, after all, no one wants to see something like this happen.” Saying that, she patted her son in her arms and said, “The child is going to sleep, I’ll take him to rest first.”

Looking at his confused wife who left with the child in her arms, the Black Tortoise Monarch’s heart sighed. In fact, they as parents also knew that they were more partial to favouring their younger son than their elder son.

One reason was because the eldest son had grown up beside Feng Jiu and the others since he was young, and was more intimate with them, plus his nature was cold, even after coming back to live beside them for a few years, he still remained aloof from them, so naturally, they were more biased towards the youngest son.

Now that their eldest son has an accident, when they as parents heard about it, their hearts were still filled with worry, with only one hope, that he could return safely as soon as possible!

Leaving the Black Tortoise Palace, Xuanyuan Mo Ze and Feng Jiu came to an inn, looking at her with little spirit, Xuanyuan Mo Ze opened his mouth and said: “Let’s stay here for one night first! I think this place can be ruled out, let’s pick another place to look.”
