All of Them! Pah, Scumbag!
Fengyang Daoist left in a hurry, and Chixu and the others took the opportunity to get up and say goodbye.
Having already enjoyed the delicious food and fine wine of Purple Jade Mountain, there was no need to stay any longer and endure this awkward atmosphere.
Although some of them didn't understand the source of this anger, since they weren't that familiar with each other yet, there was no need for them to stay and join in the fun.
Upon seeing this, Eastern King Duke smiled and bid farewell to Wu Chu and Qingqiu Li.
Wu Chu couldn't help but smile wryly, "Look at the mess this has made... We'll meet again someday!"
Eastern King Duke laughed heartily, "There will be a time when we meet again. Perhaps this humble Daoist will wander around this Primordial Land and then bother you again at your Purple Jade Mountain!"
"Welcome!"
And so, the Eastern King Duke took his leave.
The once lively scene suddenly became quiet and deserted.
"Ah, Brother A Chu, I'm so sorry!" Little Moon Spirit stuck out her little tongue, glanced at everyone, and then carefully apologized to Wu Chu.
Wu Chu suddenly smiled and reached out to rub her little head.
"What's there to apologize for? Their departure saves me from having too much good food and wine! If they save us some money, then we can eat more!"
Qingqiu Li, who was also a little worried that Wu Chu angry with them, couldn't help but chuckle when she heard this.
Her smile made everyone laugh along, and the atmosphere immediately relaxed.
Wu Chu glanced at the smiling Little Fox and snorted, "Xiao Yu, how dare you laugh? You were part of it too, weren't you? What? You won't even let the Little Phoenix like me!"
Upon hearing this, the Little Fox's eyes widened, and then it ran to Houtu's side, shaking Houtu's arm, "Sister, he bullied me! He didn't say anything to anyone else, only to me, hmph!"
Houtu rolled her eyes at Wu Chu and snorted, "You always pick on the weak. What? You're so proud that a Phoenix Clan girl likes you?"
Upon hearing this, everyone silently looked at Wu Chu.
The Little Flower Fairies and their pets, on the other hand, quietly watched the drama unfold.
Wu Chu ran his hand through his long hair and smiled nonchalantly, "I am certainly a little proud. After all, being liked is never a bad thing! It means I'm charming!"
Houtu smiled upon hearing this and said, "That's perfect. On our trip to the south, we can stop by the Undying Volcano and settle things with the Phoenix Clan..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chu coughed lightly, "Sister, let me finish what I have to say! Being liked by someone is something to be proud of, but that doesn't mean I have to accept them!"
"Why not accept it! Although Miss Feng Xi looks young, she is still a strong member of the younger generation of the Phoenix Clan! She's beautiful and very cute..."
"Sis, relationships are all about feelings. Just because someone is pretty doesn't mean it'll work out. It also depends on... Um, we've been away for so many years now, why don't we go back? I suddenly miss the leisurely life on Purple Jade Mountain."
Wu Chu suddenly realized that if he continued talking like this, he might fall into the trap set Houtu Miss Houtu, so he changed the subject.
Suddenly, Qingqiu Li chuckled and said, "I heard that Little Phoenix is preparing to head north. Is A Chu so impatient to go back and secretly meet that Little Phoenix?"
"..."
Wu Chu was speechless for a moment, then rolled his eyes at Qingqiu Li.
The Little Fox chuckled softly, as if to say: Serves you right for bullying me!
"Little Moon Spirit, give me a glass of iced yogurt, I need to cool down!"
"Tsk tsk, so you're already furious?"
Qingqiu Li clicked her tongue and shook her Houtu and said, "You're already this impatient? What will you be like in the future? Little sister, you'd better think this through!"
Houtu glanced at Qingqiu Li, smiled slightly, and nodded, saying, "Sister is right! So, does Sister plan to return to Qingqiu for seclusion after you go back?"
"..."
Wu Chu quickly turned around and went to the bow of the ship, feeling somewhat conflicted.
Bai Ze, crouching on the bow of the ship, hugged the milk tea in his paws, his eyes wide with a mixture of wariness and curiosity as he looked at Wu Chu.
In fact, it couldn't understand the conversation those people had just had at all.
For Bai Ze, who didn't yet understand what love was, their conversations seemed rather inexplicable.
Could it be that the little Phoenix Clan girl also wants to be their pet? Wants to gain their affection?
Bai Ze looked at Wu Chu with its self-assuredly wise gaze.
Wu Chu rolled her eyes at it and said, "Don't be nervous, I won't fight you for your milk tea!"
At this moment, Yibao's voice rang in Wu Chu's Consciousness Sea, "How about it? So many pretty girls are jealous for you, aren't you a little smug? Want to laugh? It's hard to hold it in, isn't it!"
Wu Chu sighed softly, "Things have gotten beyond my comprehension, and you're still laughing? Why don't you give me some advice?"
"Isn't your world all about 'wanting it all'?"
"You make it sound so easy. Don't forget, they're Daluo Realm experts. If they really get angry, do you think I can handle it?"
Yibao seemed to be scoffing, saying with a hint of disdain, "You can only take on a bowl as big as your appetite. How am I supposed to give you advice on this? If I really wanted advice, I'd suggest chasing them all away. You have me, don't you?"
"Seriously, stop messing around!"
Upon hearing this, Yibao couldn't help but chuckle. "Isn't it obvious? You like Sister Houtu, and Sister Houtu doesn't dislike you. That old fox from Qingqiu is interfering, trying to steal your love away. He flirts with you all the time, and you, you scumbag, actually don't reject him. You're having a good time, aren't you!"
"..."
"No need to say anything about Little Moon Spirit. That little fool's liking for you is probably just simple liking, maybe it hasn't risen to romantic love yet. But that Little Fox..."
"Alas! Perhaps this is just the inherent weakness of men!"
"Pah! You scumbag!"
"..."
Wu Chu was somewhat speechless, but then he thought about it and felt quite wronged. He hadn't done anything! Besides, he had been single for hundreds of thousands of years, which would be tens of millions of years in Earth time.
He hasn't done anything outrageous in all this time, so how did he become a scumbag?
Compared to the real scumbags on Earth, I'm nothing!
Seeing Wu Chu remain silent, Yibao asked again, "I'm telling you men, is it true that if a pretty girl tempts you, you can't resist?"
Wu Chu thought for a moment and said, "Right now, I can use my Primordial Spirit power to slay those evil thoughts. I can still endure it. Haven't you seen how many years I've been single?"
"What about before?"
"Before? As a single guy, even if a not-so-pretty girl tempted me, I might not have been able to resist! Let alone a pretty girl."
"Pah! You scumbag!"
"..."
