The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler

She insisted on bringing Tuan Zi back because she wanted her to acknowledge her ancestors and have a family in the future.

Even though it seemed like it was unknown if this place could still be considered 'home,' Tuan Zi had to acknowledge her ancestors. If not, they would've made a wasted trip.

"Huh? Oh, okay, okay!" Hearing that she could leave, Tuan Zi instantly became elated. There's nothing much about completing formalities! It's best if we can leave in the end!

Chu Liuyue stroked her head and looked at the few people in a stalemate. "Clan Leader, thank you for your kind praise. But Tuan Zi is still young now, and… she should be following me for a very long time in the future. I'm afraid she can't bear the responsibility of being the young mistress. Please… take back your order."

Countless gazes landed on her with complicated feelings.

Actually, other than Tuan Zi, the biggest beneficiary of this matter was Shangguan Yue.

She was Tuan Zi's master. If Tuan Zi really became the young mistress, her status would naturally rise—not to mention when Tuan Zi became the clan leader in the future.Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on N(o)v????l(F)ire

At that time, she could throw her weight around in Godly Phoenix Mountain!

Everyone listened to Tuan Zi, and she was extremely loyal to Shangguan Yue. That was akin to having the entire red-gold heavenly phoenix as her strongest backer!

Shangguan Yue would definitely understand this, yet she still swiftly and directly rejected it…

Yi Zhao knitted his brows slightly and looked at her. His impression of her changed silently.

This Shangguan Yue is indeed quite different from the other humans. With such a huge temptation before her, how many people in this world can resist it? According to how intimate and dependent Tuan Zi is on her, as long as she wants Tuan Zi to fight for it, Tuan Zi would definitely agree without a question. However, she didn't do it and rejected it for Tuan Zi.

In the depths of her black gem-like eyes, it was clear. It was crystal clear without any hints of fakeness or reluctance.

She really looked like she didn't care about these things.

Yi Zhao eased his tone. "Does Tuan Zi think that way too?"

Chu Liuyue looked down and glanced at Tuan Zi.

Tuan Zi looked up and said crisply, "What's so good about being the young mistress? I want to follow A'Yue!"

Her expression was pure and carefree, and every single word was genuine.

Chu Liuyue was touched and lightly heaved a sigh of relief.

Tuan Zi seemed young, but it had actually followed her for many years. There were many things that she knew very clearly. However, she still made such a choice without hesitation. How could she not be touched?

Luckily, the matters here should be solved quickly, and I can directly leave with Tuan Zi then. In the future, we can be relaxed.

Upon hearing this, the crowd had varying expressions.

Quite a few people secretly exchanged glances.

Some people found it a pity, others despised her, some mocked her, and the rest were nonchalant. Without a doubt, in their eyes, Tuan Zi was extremely stupid for willingly giving up on being the young mistress in order to continue staying with Shangguan Yue.

Something that many people begged and could not have was thrown away by her so easily.

She… can't be saved!

…

Elder Yi Gong suddenly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. "Clan Leader, Tuan Zi has already said so herself. Do you still want to insist?"

However, Elder Yi Shang glanced at Chu Liuyue deeply. I wonder what kind of skills this woman has to make Tuan Zi follow her so willingly and even… sacrifice such a precious opportunity… It's a pity that the purest bloodline can't be the young master.

Yi Zhao was silent for a long time and finally said, "Since you don't want to, so be it."

This was naturally said to Tuan Zi.

Quite a few people heard it and felt conflicted. Clan Leader really likes this Tuan Zi… He even said such words.

He wanted to present her with the position of young master, but Tuan Zi just said no, not giving him any face at all. Yet, he isn't angry and only retracted his thoughts regretfully.

If it were someone else present, could they receive such treatment?

However, they could understand—the purest bloodline was indeed different.

They originally really couldn't compare with Tuan Zi, so it was normal for the clan leader to be biased.

In the past, weren't they especially kind toward Yi Ran as well? It was just that Tuan Zi had an agreement with a human.

"Clan Leader Yi Zhao, you know the best as to why I brought Tuan Zi over. Since the bet is already complete, then… I hope Tuan Zi can successfully participate in the ancestral ceremony and return to the clan." Chu Liuyue swiftly summarized her own requests.

Yi Zhao did not object to it. Even though Tuan Zi can't be the young mistress, Tuan Zi is a rare purest bloodline that occurs once in every thousand years in the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan. No matter what, she should come back.

"I think so too." Yi Zhao hid his regret and pointed toward the totem in the middle of the square. "Tuan Zi, everyone in front has finished their testing. You can directly go over."

Actually, everyone had already previously seen Tuan Zi opening her fourth meridian. This test was indeed just to complete the formalities.

Seeing that the clan leader planned to give up on this, quite a few people secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere finally became less tense.

Tuan Zi didn't care about these things as she walked over in small steps.

Her white feet directly stepped onto the totem. However, she lowered her head and glanced at it.

Yi Zhao reminded, "Just directly insert the fire in your body in it."

It seemed like he wanted to go up directly and guide her personally.

Chu Liuyue couldn't help but lower her head and almost laughed out loud. A month ago, I would've never thought that this seemingly cold clan leader with a cold heart could actually be so… How should I put it… He clearly treats Tuan Zi as a big baby. It feels like he is afraid of dropping her if he holds her in his hand and afraid that she would melt if he kept her in his mouth.

Thinking of how stern he was when she and Tuan Zi first came, it really became a stark contrast to what happened now.

Luckily, Tuan Zi is about to leave with me after the ancestral ceremony. If she really stays here the whole time, how would Clan Leader Yi Zhao spoil her?

Chu Liuyue felt mentally tired for the crowd when she thought about it.

Tuan Zi was very smart and understood immediately.

She raised her chubby hand.

Rumble!

A ball of red-golden fire instantly appeared! The surrounding temperature also rose at this moment.

Quite a few people looked shocked. It seems like the purest bloodline fire is even purer and hotter than ours…

Whoosh!

Hearing a tiny sound, the first line on the totem quickly lit up!

Elder Yi Shang's expression couldn't help but change slightly. "So quickly?"

The totem's reaction seems much more sensitive than those tested previously.

Once he said this, the second one was continuously lit up!

Then, it was the third!

The surrounding noises gradually disappeared. Everyone's gazes were unwittingly sucked over.

When Chu Liuyue looked up, she saw that the fourth fire was burning with a sound!
