Chapter 383: Holy Spirit Cult landing_1
"Three lazybones!" Xu Ying said with a light smile, "This is a special tonic I’ve brewed for you!"
"A special tonic?" Chu Qin said, slightly startled.
"Mm, deer antler soup!" Xu Ying said with a grin.
"Deer antler?" Chu Qin raised an eyebrow.
The benefits of deer antler were no mystery to him. However, what did it mean for Xu Ying to specially prepare deer antler for him? Was she looking down on him?
"How about it, you must have been very tired last night, so quickly replenish yourself!" Xu Ying said with a smile, handing one bowl of soup to Chu Qin, "Since they haven’t woken up yet, Chu Qin, you try it first and see how it tastes. I simmered it on low heat for several Shi Chen!"
"Alright!" He took the deer antler soup and tentatively sipped it, immediately raising his brow!
It had to be said that the deer antler soup Xu Ying had brewed was truly exceptional!
"How is it?" Xu Ying asked with a smile on her face.
"It’s delicious!" Chu Qin smiled and nodded, "Auntie, you have some good skills here!"
Xu Ying didn’t mind that Chu Qin still referred to her as Auntie because she knew Chu Qin was afraid of Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing hearing.
"Wow, what’s this lovely smell? What kind of soup is this!" Just then, it seemed that the enticing aroma of the soup had roused Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing from their slumber as they sleepily got out of bed.
"It’s a soup brewed by auntie..." Chu Qin was about to explain, but he suddenly started, realizing that these two gluttons, wearing only their thin pajamas, were up!
Xu Ying quickly turned her head to the side!
"Mom, what’s wrong?" Zhu Zhuqing said, startled.
"Eh, Zhu Qing, your clothes!" Zhu Zhuyun exclaimed in surprise.
Zhu Zhuqing immediately woke up with a start and, after glancing at her body, quickly covered her key parts and hid behind Chu Qin before shouting, "Sister, you too!"
"Ah!" Zhu Zhuyun screamed even louder, then hurriedly ran to the bed and dove under the covers!
"What are you shy about!" Seeing Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing like this, Xu Ying was actually no longer embarrassed and said with a nonchalant smile, "Here, it’s just me and Chu Qin. Who are you afraid of seeing you?"
"No, no, your daughters are all grown up now! Mom, please go out!" Zhu Zhuqing called out from behind Chu Qin!
"Fine, fine!" Xu Ying said with a helpless shrug, "Well, Chu Qin, make sure you finish the soup. I’m off now!"
"Okay!" Chu Qin nodded.
After Xu Ying left, Chu Qin quickly closed the door, "Alright, auntie’s gone now!"
Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun both let out a sigh of relief, then Zhu Zhuyun crawled out from under the covers again, still in her pajamas, and walked over to Chu Qin’s side, taking a bowl of deer antler soup!
Seeing her sister do this, Zhu Zhuqing also picked up a bowl of deer antler soup and started drinking with no reservations!
"Zhu Yun, are you two still not going to get dressed?" Chu Qin asked with a smile, tinged with a slight reprimand.
"What’s there to be afraid of!" Zhu Zhuyun said triumphantly, "In front of you, we’re not the least bit shy!"
"Mm-hmm!" Zhu Zhuqing chimed in, "Besides, it’s so hot today, I don’t want to wear clothes!"
"I give up on you two!" Chu Qin said helplessly, shaking his head as he fastened the door lock.
"Chu Qin!"
Just at that moment, Chu Qin was startled awake by a series of knocks and a rough voice.
It was Zhu Zhuqing’s father, Zhu Zhentian!
Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun were immediately shocked and quickly hid under the covers again, while Chu Qin also started, gulped down the deer antler soup, pulled open the door, closed it again after stepping out, and then looked at Zhu Zhentian with a small smile, "Uncle Zhu, what brings you here?"
Ever since his conversation with Xu Ying yesterday, Chu Qin had greatly changed his opinion of Zhu Zhentian before him!
"Something has happened, something has happened!" But what was seen was Zhu Zhentian’s shift from a playful smile to Chu Qin to a look of panic.
"Don’t panic, take it slow, what exactly happened?" Chu Qin’s face changed, signaling Zhu Zhentian to calm down.
"I can’t calm down!" Zhu Zhentian took deep breaths and sighed.
"What in the world happened!" Chu Qin’s eyebrows furrowed.
"Here’s what, you quickly go to the imperial palace, and ask the Emperor and Empress!" Zhu Zhentian replied.
"Alright!" Seeing Zhu Zhentian’s demeanor, Chu Qin’s heartbeat began to accelerate, "Then Uncle Zhu, when Zhu Qing and Zhu Yun wake up, tell them I’ve gone back to the imperial palace first!"
"Mmm, okay!" Zhu Zhentian nodded his head.
Wait, Chu Qin got halfway, then returned to the room, ordered Zhu Zhuqing and the others to get dressed properly, and told them he had to go back to the imperial palace first, then he rushed out of the room!
Following that, Chu Qin spread his eight-winged attached soul bone and made a beeline for Xing Luo Imperial Palace; in no time, he was stepping through the air, arriving at the grand hall where Zhu Yundi was!
"Lord Wang Jue, you’ve finally shown up!" Waiting outside the grand hall was Li Hu, who, upon seeing Chu Qin, seemed like he had found a life-saving straw.
"Why are you saying the same thing, what on earth has happened!" Chu Qin said and hurried into the grand hall!
"Chu Qin!"
The moment Zhu Yundi saw Chu Qin, she excitedly ran over.
Seeing that Zhu Yundi was unharmed, Chu Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief; he had thought something had happened to Yundi!
"Yundi, Uncle Zhu said something happened, he wouldn’t tell me what, and Li Hu couldn’t make head or tail of it either. What actually happened?" Chu Qin asked calmly.
"They’re overthinking it; it’s not a big deal actually!" Zhu Yundi gave a small smile, "It’s just that last night, we received an urgent report! Seaside City has been occupied by a group of oceanic bandits! I’ve already dispatched two hundred thousand Star Luo Soldiers to suppress the rebellion!"
"Oceanic bandits?" Chu Qin’s eyebrows rose, "Who are they?"
"I don’t know!" Zhu Yundi shook her head, "I’ve already sent spies over!"
"Then do you need my help?" Chu Qin asked.
"No need!" Zhu Yundi said with a gentle smile, "You work so hard every night, a mere band of bandits, you don’t need to worry about it!"
Chu Qin showed a heartwarming smile and gently embraced Zhu Yundi’s waist, "Then you should also rest well, don’t work too hard, I would be heartbroken if you got tired out!"
"Mhm!"
Zhu Yundi leaned sweetly into Chu Qin’s chest with a blissful smile.
"If you ever need me, make sure to say so!" Chu Qin said softly.
"Yes, I will!" Zhu Yundi nodded her head.
Meanwhile, in Seaside City!
At this moment, it was occupied by countless figures shrouded in black cloaks, and these people were none other than members of the Holy Spirit Cult Secret Division!
The one leading them was Mirror Young Master!
"Young Master, all the people of Seaside City have been captured by us!" said a figure in a black cloak, landing beside Mirror Young Master.
"You didn’t kill anyone, did you?" Mirror Young Master asked.
"No, not a single one!" the black cloak replied.
"Good, that’s good!" Mirror Young Master nodded.
"Also, this is the map of the continent, it looks very vast, initially estimated to be twice the size of our Sun-Moon Empire!" the black cloak continued, taking out a map.
