Emperor of Nine Suns

"With this little monster here, it seems that Duxu Peak's rise is unstoppable."

The last remaining person among the five is Li Yu from Phantom Demon Peak. He is usually taciturn and has a very deep city.

Seeing everyone's various discussions about the mysterious senior brother Duxu Peak, he finally couldn't help but sigh.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and everyone felt extremely depressed.

Li Yu's words revealed what everyone was most worried about and what was also the most undeniable point.

The dark and empty cell suddenly fell into a deathly silence, and everyone felt heavy in their hearts.

According to legend, the day when Duxu Peak rises again is the time when the Moming Sect will be bloodbathed? !

"call……"

The billowing heat spreads in the air along with the alluring fragrance, giving the cave on the empty mountain top a warm smell.

The curling smoke rises like a layer of fairy mist, forming a layer of hazy white clouds on the top of the cave.

In this beautiful dream-like scene, a slim and slender figure carefully walked up to Chu Chen carrying a steaming pot of soup and gently placed it on the clean stone table.

At this time, several exquisite side dishes have been placed on the stone table. The dishes are full of color, fragrance and flavor. One glance at them will make your index fingers move.

Chu Chen, who was sitting next to the stone table, looked at the indifferent face of the purple-haired girl in front of him, as expressionless as a doll, with an expression of admiration that could not hide his amazement.

To be honest, if he had not lived with Zixi for so many days, he would never have thought that this seemingly indifferent girl was actually a good family woman.

Zixi likes cooking, cooking, cleaning the room, and when she has nothing to do, she likes to go out and collect some fruits and plants that even Chu Chen can't recognize to make a sumptuous dinner.

And the most speechless thing is that Zixi herself can't eat much... She often cooks a table of dishes, but she only takes a few bites, and more than 90% of them end up in Chu Chen's stomach.

This woman seems to cook purely because of her hobby. She just likes to do it, but she doesn't like to eat that much.

Having said that, it would be a waste if you don’t marry such a woman...

The corner of Chu Chen's mouth curled up slightly, and he saw Zi Xi carefully placing the soup pot on the table, then lowering his head and taking a sip, seemingly relieved.

He glanced at Chu Chen indifferently and saw that the boy was holding his chin and his eyes were moving around, as if he was thinking about something.

"This is ready to eat."

After a moment of pause, Zi Xi was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Chu Chen: "Don't leave."

"What's up?"

The indifferent purple eyes looked over again. For some reason, Chu Chen found that Zi Xi's eyes seemed a little different from before. They were no longer as unwavering as before, like a pool of stagnant water.

Nowadays, this purple gaze seems to be gradually gaining more aura, and it seems to have a different kind of charm.

"Every time you cook a meal, you just take a bite and leave. It's so boring. Of course, two people eat together, so it tastes better."

Chu Chen chuckled, "Also, we all live under the same roof, but there is no chance to communicate at all. We just take this time to chat, so we feel like a family."

Purple eyes stared at Chu Chen calmly for a while, and a wave of waves suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes, but it soon calmed down again.

Then Zi Xi shook her head gently: "There is no need to understand, just eat it yourself."

"Hey, this is too disrespectful to me."

Chu Chen's voice was slightly higher, "I am the master here after all, you are just a guest staying overnight. As the saying goes, guests do as they please. This is tantamount to breaking the rules here. Let me ask you a question. If you answer, I will let you go."

Zi Xi paused for a moment, turned around, and looked at Chu Chen expressionlessly without speaking.

"Have you...had anyone you liked growing up?"

Chu Chen's voice became a little deeper, with a sense of curiosity that could not be concealed.

"the person I like?"

Zi Xi was stunned for a moment, and a look of confusion flashed across her clear amethyst-like eyes, "What kind of person is considered a person you like?"

"That is the person you are willing to do anything for, want to be with him all your life, no matter what difficulties you face, no matter what danger you face, you don't want to be separated, no matter what the cost, you don't want to hurt him."

Chu Chen grinned and asked with a wicked smile.

The confusion in her lavender eyes became deeper and deeper, as if Chu Chen's question had plunged her into some kind of confusion.

Zi Xi's usually indifferent expression actually changed several expressions in an instant. The next moment, in Chu Chen's surprised gaze, he saw the purple-haired girl narrowing her eyes as if out of instinct...

She remembered that that windy night, she leaned against Chu Chen and looked up at the dark sky.

Relying on each other, feeling each other's warmth in this dark world.

That feeling is very special to her, very special!

The confusion in the beautiful purple gem-like eyes only lasted for a moment. Zi Xi shook her head as if she suddenly thought of something.

The look on her face quickly turned into one of determination: "I don't need someone like that."

"Oh, you're sure?"

Chu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "That's not necessarily the case..."

Zixi shook her head lightly and glanced at him: "What else is there? You wasted a lot of my time."

"Okay, I do have one more thing I need your help with."

Chu Chen smiled and pointed upward, "What I want to say is that you haven't been to the top of the mountain for several days..."

"I have no reason to go."

Zi Xi's indifferent face showed no expression.

"Didn't you say you were going to sit back and wait for a young golden-winged roc?"

Chu Chen asked softly, "Don't you plan to do that now?"

"You're right, I'm waiting for that big roc."

Zi Xi nodded numbly, "But after I thought about it, there is no need to guard there every night. If the golden-winged roc really comes over, I will naturally feel it."

"Are you afraid of going to the top of the mountain?"

"I... didn't." Zixi suddenly realized that her eyes were avoiding her.

"Uh...well, since you are not afraid of the top of the mountain, just do me a favor."

Chu Chen smiled as if he were harmless.

Zixi took a step back instinctively.
