Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family

Chapter 785 555: Living Dead

When people talk about something not so important, their thoughts tend to drift away.

What you're thinking and what you're talking about are completely different things. Ironically, the person chatting with you becomes extremely delighted because you're just echoing their words.

Simply put, it's like saying, 'Ah, yes, yes!'

At Chen Zhixing's level of divine sense, situations like this obviously don't happen. Even if he didn't engage his mind during a conversation, his speech would still be quite appropriate, always looking out for his own interests.

The problem is, you can't fend off the sly old fox you're chatting with, who sets you up now and then!

"Your Majesty Star Venerable..."

"Senior, you flatter me. I am good friends with Sister Qingyue. Since you are Sister Qingyue's mentor, feel free to call me Zhixing."

"Is that appropriate?"

"Very appropriate."

"Hahaha, then I won't stand on ceremony. Zhixing, you don't know, before I came here, that girl Qingyue wouldn't stop talking about you. Although she didn't say it directly, anyone could tell from her demeanor that she holds you in her heart." Mo Zhen said this while smiling, carefully observing Chen Zhixing, clearly becoming more satisfied with what he saw.

"When I have time, I'll visit Sister Qingyue at the Celestial Saint Palace."

"Yes, you should meet. It's been over a decade since you last saw each other. Now that everyone has some free time, you might as well get together more, get along well, and reminisce about the old days. It would indeed be quite amusing."

"Senior, you speak wisely. Zhixing has been enlightened." Despite echoing these words, Chen Zhixing's mind was still occupied with matters of the Ancient Immortal Divine Court, not really paying attention to what he was saying.

"Then I'll go back and tell that girl Qingyue to wait for you in the palace?"

"Alright..." Chen Zhixing casually agreed, then felt that Mo Zhen's words were not quite right.

What did he mean by having her wait in the palace?

It was as if he was implying that if he didn't go, Mo Qingyue would turn into a forlorn widow awaiting his return!

Ahem.

Though that was somewhat the case, since Mo Qingyue stepped down from her position as Saintess to assume the role of Elder, she barely left the mountain and had no husband to accompany her, indeed resembling a widow in certain respects. But when this old fox uttered it, it felt distorted.

'This old man has no good intentions!'

This was Chen Zhixing's first thought, followed quickly by a second thought that startled him.

'Could he be here under the guise of picking up herbs, proposing on behalf of Sister Qingyue?'

The moment this thought appeared, the suppressed humanity in Chen Zhixing's mind started to boil. Subsequently, an uncontrollable thought split off from his Sea of Consciousness, transforming into a human figure, ignoring everyone present, and headed straight towards the Celestial Saint Palace!

Chen Zhixing: "???"

He intended to stop it but ultimately decided not to.

That thought was from his first heart-throb as a child, and naturally, the object was the Saintess Mo Qingyue, who had once represented the Celestial Saint Palace in visiting the Ziwei Chen Family.

Who doesn't have a 'white moonlight' in their heart?

Chen Zhixing doesn't deny that he is very interested in Mo Qingyue, especially now with his current level and status. Whether to develop a more intimate relationship with Mo Qingyue depends entirely on a single thought.

Since that's the case, and given that Mo Qingyue indeed seems interested, why should he stop it all from happening?

With this thought, when his emotions calmed down, Chen Zhixing, with a composed expression, bowed to Mo Zhen in front of him:

"During this visit, I have greatly benefited from Senior Mo Zhen's guidance. If things work out in the future, there will definitely be good gifts in return."

"Hahahahaha, that's all easy to say. I'm just an old man who can't stand seeing you young folks knowing each other but acting aloof. As I grow older, I love to see some festive matters. I hope His Majesty Star Venerable can forgive my meddling..."

Saying this, a radiant smile spread across Mo Zhen's face.

To be able to turn this Star Monarch into his family's son-in-law was undoubtedly a great blessing for him.

Ignoring other influences, at least his Longevity Pill was secured, wasn't it?

The only thing that surprised Mo Zhen was Chen Zhixing's recently split thought... why did it appear as a young child?

...

Celestial Saint Palace.

Inside the Frost Snow Hall atop Flying Immortal Peak.

Mo Qingyue half-leaned by the window, her gaze softly tender as she looked toward the red plums outside.

When a small child descended from the sky, transforming from illusion to reality, there was not an ounce of surprise in her eyes.

Without rising, she beckoned to the child underneath the plum tree, a gentle laugh in her voice:

"What brings you here today?"

"I missed you, so I came to see you."

The child, transitioning from virtual to real, hopped and skipped to the window. Under Mo Qingyue's amused gaze, he clumsily clambered in from outside the window.

Landing gently on the ground, he acted like a little adult, climbing onto a chair and even pouring himself a cup from the jug on the table.

Surprisingly, the jug contained plum juice instead of wine.

Tasting it made the child a bit unhappy, shaking the cup as he spoke to Mo Qingyue:

"Your Celestial Saint Palace's Mountain Protection Array is really annoying! I was so careful coming here, hoping to surprise you, but you figured it out ahead of time."

"Pfft."

Perhaps seeing Chen Zhixing like this, his pretentious act made Mo Qingyue find it quite amusing. This former Saintess in the Celestial Saint Palace, now quite high-ranking, rarely showed a hint of a girlish demeanor.
