"Mo Chen, it's been a long time indeed. Are you doing well?" Feng Jiu stepped forward, smiling. As she walked forward, she let go of Xuanyuan Mo Ze's hand.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze lowered his gaze, staring at his now-empty hand. Within him, a wave of inexplicable melancholy arose. His lips were pursed as he glanced at Mo Chen, who was dressed in spotlessly white attire. Then, he stepped forward and sat beside Feng Jiu.
"It's been years and your temperament hasn't changed," Xuanyuan Mo Ze said to Mo Chen as he kept his deep gaze on him. He thought the man in front of him radiated a lot more stillness than he did five years ago.
While he appeared to be smiling, he felt distant. Especially noticeable was the faint light coming from him, which made him like a luminous body in the middle of the night.
pandasnovel.com Mo Chen smiled gently as he heard them speak. He glanced at them and said, "After I came here, I was appointed by my master to become the Temple's Holy Son. I've been cultivating in the Holy Tower all these years, and only recently came out of seclusion."
With a few simple sentences, he summarized his experiences over the years. He looked at them both and said, "It seems you've had quite a few lucky encounters these few years. In just five years, you have become a Divine King Strong Exponent."
Feng Jiu looked at him and chuckled. "We used medicinal pills to progress at this speed. But you are different because you worked hard to climb each step. Now you've reached the Upper-level Divine Peak. It's just one step away from becoming a Divine King."
He smiled without saying much, adding, "I heard about your challenge to the Skylink Monarch on the mountain summit. Is this true?"
"Yes, it's true." Xuanyuan Mo Ze confirmed the news.
"Are you confident, battling him one-on-one?" Mo Chen asked again.
"There shouldn't be any problem," Xuanyuan Mo Ze replied.
"That's good," Mo Chen nodded. Glancing at Feng Jiu, he told Xuanyuan Mo Ze, "You're not alone. Always think of Ah Jiu. If you're unsure about fighting in a battle, avoid it."
Feng Jiu chuckled, "Don't worry! Ze knows his limits, and I trust him."
Mo Chen looked at her, his gaze gentle. "Have you been well these recent years?"
Xuanyuan Mo Ze, who sat next to her, raised an eyebrow. "She's been doing very well, you don't need to worry. We plan to return and marry after the battle on the mountain summit. When the time comes, you must come to drink our wedding wine."
Amused by Xuanyuan Mo Ze's eagerness, Feng Jiu turned to Mo Chen and said with a smile, "I've been doing quite well these years. We're getting married, so have your gift ready by then. You must come to drink our wedding wine."
Mo Chen smiled as he listened to them and then asked, "Are you going back to the Phoenix Empire to have the wedding?"
"Mm, we're getting married in the Phoenix Empire," Xuanyuan Mo Ze answered.
"I'll definitely be there, and I'll prepare a generous gift for you two," Mo Chen said gently, his eyes on Feng Jiu, "Ah Jiu, I believe that you will be happy to marry Mo Ze."
"Mm hmm. We will be happy." Feng Jiu held Xuanyuan Mo Ze's hand, her eyes shining with joy as she looked at him. As their gazes met, they exchanged a knowing smile.
Turning her gaze towards Mo Chen, she said sincerely, "Mo Chen, whoever marries you someday will be very happy, too."
Mo Chen continued to look at her with a tender smile on his lips, but he said nothing…
