The two of them patiently gave Xuanyi enough time to slowly dissipate his anger.
The beautiful woman in the black dress could barely understand her son's choice, but she just couldn't accept it emotionally.
Bai Sujin has indeed been with him for a longer time, and her appearance and temperament remain the same as they have been for more than ten years. She is the person Chu Wuji is most familiar with, so it is understandable that he would give priority to Bai Sujin.
If Chu Wuji had not made this choice, Bai Sujin would have met another ungrateful person after the White Snake Temple.
Her appearance in Xuan Yi was indeed much more abrupt. If it weren't for the miraculous fortune of the golden thunder tribulation, she probably wouldn't have had the chance to stand in front of Chu Wuzhi.
But I still feel depressed.
She and Bai Sujin were naturally incompatible because they each represented the opposing moods of the past.
After a long while, Bai Kongque saw Xuan Yi's expression ease, and then he asked what happened:
"Can you talk now?"
"Well, after that, help me investigate something."
Xuan Yi gritted his teeth and told them about the little friction just now. Bai Kongque and Bu Miao were speechless.
It really was...it scared everyone, we thought it was some big deal!
Bu Miao didn't say anything sarcastic, but murmured softly, "To be so hostile over the name 'mother', this is probably the first time in the world, right?"
Bai Kongque then said, "Xuan Yi, you just said you wanted to investigate something. What was it?"
"Before I woke up, someone had their hands on this body of merit. Can you find out who it was? I'm going to skin him alive!"
Xuanyi wanted to vent all his frustration on this person.
White Peacock was in a dilemma. This incident didn't happen in the Western Regions, and there was no way to investigate it.
She pondered, "I suggest you go directly to your sister and ask her. Doesn't she know the clues? There's no need to go through all the trouble of looking for her from my side."
Xuan Yi held his forehead and nodded:
"That's right, I was really confused and angry. I didn't even react to what I just said to you."
Chapter 417 Aunt is Invited
Chu Wuji said something to the maid, followed her steps, and moved to the room prepared by Bai Kongque.
The maids here are also very generous in their clothing. Due to the hot climate, their clothes are cool. Even if their upper chests are tightly wrapped, their lower abdomens are exposed, flat and smooth, with soft waist lines.
Even though the skin tones are different, the tenderness of the skin is quite pleasing to the eye.
There is no need to change clothes. It seems that as long as she puts on a piece of gauze, she can immediately transform into a dancer who can sing and dance well.
"Mr. Chu, if you need anything, you can always tell me to wait."
After the maid brought Chu Wuzhi to the room, she bowed and left, returning to her seat to wait.
Bai Kongque arranged a lot of rooms for Chu Wuzhi, but they were all redundant. The great demon elders would definitely stick to him and rest together.
"It's the same room as last time. White Peacock is thoughtful and has really preserved this room." said the Sky Fox Queen.
"The room from last time?" Aunt Qingshe recalled, but she couldn't remember the last time.
"At that time, the Little Green Snake and the White Snake were recuperating in the Sericulture Kingdom. The Drunken Taoist broke into this room and took away all the wine and drinks that the White Peacock had confiscated."
"So it was that time. I was wondering why I couldn't remember it." The green snake thought he had forgotten.
Chu Wuji jumped up and then lay down, dropping his body onto the cashmere bed, enjoying the softness and comfort.
The White Snake and the Sky Fox Goddess bounced along with Chu Wuji's body, but the Green Snake Aunt was in a miserable state. She was still wrapped around Chu Wuji's waist. With that blow just now, the Green Snake Aunt was caught off guard and her tongue was spit out.
"You're going to die! Why didn't you remind me to change my position?" The green snake cursed and returned to coiling around his arm.
The Sky Fox Queen no longer maintained her fox form. She changed back into human form and rested her head in Chu Wuji's arms, intending to let Madam Jiang get some fresh air and see the exotic scenery of the capital of the Sun and Moon Kingdom.
The fox girl picked up a strand of snow-white hair and gently stroked Chu Wuji's neck, tickling him, and said:
"I'm really surprised that Young Master is so determined to support White Snake. He's not afraid of the cooperation falling apart."
Chu Wuji smiled bitterly and said helplessly:
"It shouldn't lead to a falling out, and we should be on Mother's side."
The Fox Goddess was not afraid of trouble. When she heard Chu Wuji's "mother" without any specific reference, she responded with an "Ah~", and she was eager to provoke another verbal confrontation.
"Why are you helping me? My dear, you are so considerate of me!"
Chu Wuji could only force a smile. Fortunately, the White Snake Mother would not be easily provoked and did not take it to heart, otherwise he would have a headache.
However, Chu Wuji was more curious about his aunt. Why didn't she angrily scold the Sky Fox Queen for being shameless?
Chu Wuji was a little uncomfortable with such quietness and calmness.
Because the Fox Goddess was resting her head on his arm, Chu Wuji had no choice but to hook his arms around the fox girl's slender waist, turn over her beautiful body, and let it lie on his chest, freeing up space for his arm. Only then did Chu Wuji look at his Green Snake Aunt in his sleeve.
"Aunt, what are you thinking about? Why are you silent?"
The delicate and beautiful green snake's little head drooped listlessly on his wrist. It wasn't that it was uncomfortable, but it felt guilty somewhere in its heart.
"Nothing, I just feel a little uncomfortable about the way we treated Xuan Yi just now... Of course, I didn't say that I did anything wrong."
Chu Wuji bent his palm, slowly pulled out the green snake, stroked it gently, and said comfortingly:
"I know, I know. My aunt is just too hard-hearted and tender-hearted. When she suddenly saw someone who looked like mother, she felt pity for him."
"Correct!"
Aunt Green Snake accepted the title of "iron-blooded and tender-hearted" without any ambiguity.
She was afraid that her sister, White Snake, would blame her for being disloyal, so she quickly added:
"Let me be clear, I'm not disgruntled with my sister. I'm simply too kind-hearted."
Bai Sujin had no intention of blaming her sister. Her thoughts were simple and easy to understand. She said softly:
"That Xuan Yi is the incarnation of my inner demon. She has become independent through the body of merit. It is normal for Xiaoqing to think that she is very similar to me.
...But it was truly unexpected that the inner demon could actually escape like this and even survive the golden light and thunder tribulation."
The Fox Goddess pressed her pink cheek against Chu Wuji's chest, her expression lazy. She listened to his heartbeat in a comfortable and tender manner and said:
"Perhaps it's because he survived the golden lightning tribulation and broke free from the shackles that he's now where he is~?
A normal great demon who could survive that kind of thunder tribulation would have no problem becoming a regional overlord, but her current cultivation level is comparable to yours, White Snake. This shows that the only reward she gained from successfully surviving the tribulation was independence."
There are many people in the world who have received great opportunities and taken a huge step forward, but in the end they are just standing at the starting line of others.
Aunt Green Snake pondered this and angrily condemned her own younger generation, saying:
"Wu Ji, you're so cruel! My sister didn't even forbid you from calling her 'mother', yet you decided not to call her that and instead called her 'Madam Xuan Yi'!"
Chu Wuji glanced at his aunt unhappily and retorted:
"Then why didn't you call her 'sister' just now, auntie?"
"I......"
The Green Snake's aunt was speechless. She glanced at the White Snake secretly and tactfully skipped the topic that was not in her favor.
She began to understand Chu Wuji's intention. Although Bai Sujin did not forbid it, it did not mean that she could do so. If she suddenly called the person opposite "mother", Bai Sujin would be the one who was sad.
The green snake could only act like a rogue and say some stupid things:
"It's difficult to do either way. Wuji, you just called Xuanyi 'mother', so I don't have to be so depressed. I feel bad inside."
Chu Wuji was puzzled and didn't understand, so he asked:
"You don't need to be depressed anymore. Aren't you afraid that your mother will be sad?"
"I can comfort my sister, but then I can turn around and condemn you with passionate words!"
"...Aunt, you are really good at calculating."
Chu Wuji was filled with admiration. If it weren't for the inconvenience of lying down, he would have at least performed a fist-clasping salute.
As we were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
The maid's voice came from outside:
"Master Chu, Master Xuanyi wants to talk to Miss Xiaoqing."
Aunt Green Snake blinked and asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Chu Wuji confirmed, "Did they say anyone else should come along, or can Miss Xiaoqing go alone?"
"Master Xuanyi didn't specify anything, but it seems he only wanted to call Miss Xiaoqing. I will wait outside the door and lead the way for her."
"Okay, I understand. I'll go out later." Chu Wuzhi agreed on behalf of his aunt.
Chapter 418 Is the pressure too great, Xiaoqing?
The maid's footsteps faded away from the door, and the room was silent for a moment.
The Green Snake Aunt transformed into a human form and sat cross-legged in front of Chu Wuji, completely ignoring the fact that her horse-faced skirt was lifted up, revealing a beautiful scene.
She stared at Chu Wuji in confusion and asked:
"What's going on?"
Chu Wuji reached out to help his aunt adjust her skirt, lifting it up even more, revealing her two snow-white legs.
However, Aunt Green Snake didn't care about these details at all, and she couldn't play around anymore. She waited anxiously for Chu Wuzhi's answer. Seeing that she was so serious, Chu Wuzhi would not play around anymore.
He thought about it carefully and shook his head:
"How would I know? It's so random, and they want you to go alone. Maybe they want to drag you over to chat?"
Xuanyi seems to be an independent individual, but her sister Qingshe occupies a considerable part in her cognition and emotions.
Now that we've met, wanting to call him over to chat is a normal expression of emotion, right?
Aunt Qingshe was even more worried. If Xuanyi really treated her as a sister, just like Bai Sujin treated her, it would only lead to one result -
If she gets angry while talking later, Xuanyi might rely on her status as an older sister to teach her a lesson!
And because of the suppression of the sisterly relationship, Qing Snake dared not refute back and could only be a punching bag...
It’s humiliating just to think about it!
"Wu Ji, come with me." My aunt wanted to ask for help.
"I just told you to go to the meeting on your own. If I go, the content of the conversation will change." Chu Wuji honestly tidied her clothes and appearance, and tied up the messy hair.
"I'm afraid Xuan Yi will take the opportunity to scold me. If Wu Ji were here, she might get angry when she thinks about what just happened and start scolding you~"
"Wow, Auntie, you've never stopped thinking... I'm not going!"
Chu Wuji had made up his mind, and he also wanted his aunt to help him sound out the situation and confirm what Xuanyi's mother's mood was.
How dare I show up now?
Bai Sujin urged her sister:
"Okay, Xiaoqing, stop being shy and go now. You've been delayed for a long time."
"Sister, you're so confident in letting me go!"
"You're already a dragon, what's there to be afraid of? The worst that can happen is you can just run back. Who can stop you?"
"...That's okay."
The green snake was also disgusted with being uneasy here, so he decided to go to the meeting alone to find out the truth.
She jumped lightly off the bed, and when her white and delicate toes were about to touch the ground, her shoes slowly emerged and wrapped around her jade feet. She quickly left the room and looked for a maid to lead the way.
The Fox Goddess turned to look at the White Snake and smiled with a bit of surprise:
"White Snake, aren't you afraid that Xuan Yi won't be able to snatch your son away, so he'll snatch your sister away instead?"
Just by looking at how White Snake and Green Snake were inseparable in the past, you can tell that Xuanyi has the same feelings for his sister Green Snake.
Bai Sujin transformed, got out of bed and walked to the window, looking at the boundless sky, as if reminiscing, and said:
"I naturally wouldn't allow Xuan Yi to snatch Xiao Qing away, but she should definitely meet and talk with Xiao Qing. At least, she should see how Xiao Qing has grown since she met Wu Ji!"
