Zhang Yuxue and the others searched for Long Jingtian in the Middle District for three years in vain, and they went back to New Moon Mansion.
Zhang He said gloatingly, “Young Master Tianyi, they don’t seem to get anything from the journey.”
Zhang Yuxue was proud and looked down on the people of the Middle District.
She was friendly to Zhang Tianhao because she could use him.
The dozens of Real Immortals that Zhang Tianhao brought were sent to explore the way in dangerous realms and suffered casualties during the three years.
Xiao Jinting said lightly, “It is not surprising that they failed to find Long Jingtian.
Didn’t Long Yu fail to do that? Zhang Yuxue had a big group of people, but there was not an Immortal King among them. What could they do if they met Long Jingtian?
Although Xiao Jinting thought highly of Long Jingtian’s strength, he let out a secret sigh of relief when he heard that Zhang Yuxue couldn’t find him.
Zhang He said, “Actually, they got a clue.”
Xiao Jinting asked curiously, “What is it?”
Zhang He said, “It was said that they met Long Jingtian and the kidnapped False Immortal cook, and they even ate the roasted meat made by the cook. However, they didn’t recognize Long Jingtian, who had turned into a rabbit.”
Xiao Jinting frowned and thought, “False Immortal cook? I have underestimated Xiaojin. He’s with Long Jingtian.”
…
Zhang Tianhao stayed in his room with a sullen face.
For three years, he had been courting Zhang Yuxue, who kept a distance from him.
Zhang Bei and Zhang Fang tried to push him out whenever they could. They thought he was their subordinate and they could order him around because they came from the Upper District.
Zhang Yuxue seemed gentle to him, but she was closer to Zhang Bei and Zhang Fang.
Zhang Tianhao traveled around with Zhang Yuxue during the three years and lost quite some men without getting any benefits.
Wei Liao looked at the sullen face of Zhang Tianhao and said, “Young Master, are you okay?”
Zhang Tianhao asked, “What has Zhang Tianyi been doing during the three years?”
Wei Liao said, “He stayed in the mansion, making pills and selling them.”
Zhang Tianhao narrowed his eyes and said bitterly, “He is enjoying himself.”
Wei Liao smiled and said, “He might know the lady is in charge of the family, and he will get in trouble if he makes a scene, so he behaves himself.”
“It’s good that he knows about that.” Zhang Tianhao said coldly, “Wei Liao, do you think the rabbit we met is Long Jingtian?”
In the first year, they met that guy twice, but they failed to find him when they searched for him carefully.
Wei Liao said, “It’s very likely.”
Zhang Tianhao said coldly, “Zhang Fang said that Miss Zhang’s detecting disc works well. If it had worked well, it could have detected the presence of Long Jingtian.”
Wei Liao looked at Zhang Tianhao and said, “That’s the invaluable treasure of the main family. I think it should work well.”
Zhang Tianhao clenched his fists tightly. When his mother asked him to come and meet Zhang Yuxue, his father didn’t object. He had thought it was a good mission. To his surprise, it was hard to please Zhang Yuxue. The dozens of women that he courted before were much easier to get than Zhang Yuxue.
…
Zhang Yuxue stayed in her room and rubbed her forehead in dismay.
Zhang Fang asked, “Yuxue, are you okay?”
Zhang Yuxue gritted her teeth and said, “What a shame! We missed two golden opportunities.”
If only she had reacted faster. It was such a pity. She would rather they didn’t run across Long Jingtian. However, they bumped into him two times without recognizing him.
“Yu Xue, that rabbit might not be Long Jingtian. Both Dragon and Phoenix are the proudest species. Although Long Jingtian is rejected by the two tribes, he is arrogant. The cook held the rabbit in his hands and stroked it. The first time when we met them, the False Immortal even grabbed the rabbit’s tail and held it upside down.”
“The tail is the sensitive spot for a Dragon, and only its spouse could touch. If anyone touches it by accident, he will be hunted and killed by the dragon. The second time we met the False Immortal, he was still alive,” said Zhang Bei reflectively.
Zhang Xue frowned. “What you say makes some sense. But that guy is suspicious, so is the rabbit. Can you identify the species of the rabbit? Can you still remember its grade?”
Zhang Bei and Zhang Fang exchanged a glance. Zhang Yuxue said slowly, “At first, I thought that was an ordinary rabbit, but I can’t remember how it looked like or its grade when I look back.”
Zhang Bei said hesitantly, “Shall we search for them again?”
“We have searched for them for a long time. They might have got wind of it and hidden.”
Zhang Yuxue said sullenly, “I can’t wait any longer. I have to go back to the Upper District. The family test is approaching. If I continue to stay in the Middle District, I can’t make it.”
Zhang Fang and Zhang Bei exchanged glances. They turned solemn at the mention of the family test.
Zhang Yuxue and the rest packed up and quickly boarded the flying ship, going back to the Upper District. Zhang Tianhao traveled with them for three years in vain.
After Zhang Yuxue left, Zhang Tianhao went back home. Wei Liao followed Zhang Tianhao and served him well for three years, and he got the chance to go back with the latter.
After they left, Xiao Jinting was relieved.
…
When Xiao Xiaojin made ice cream, he said to the fox on his shoulder, “Zhang Yuxue has left.”
Xiao Xiaojin was sure that Zhang Yuxue knew later that the rabbit in his hands was Long Jingtian.
Because she had been inquiring about a False Immortal with a rabbit.
Zhang Yuxue didn’t know that Xiao Xiaojin asked Long Jingtian to turn into a fox after the second encounter. Her team was looking for a rabbit, and they couldn’t find Long Jingtian.
Long Jingtian moved his tail proudly and said, “I don’t care. This stupid woman can’t find me even she looks for me for another thirty years.”
An evil voice came from behind them, “Yeah. She can’t find you in another thirty years. You are slippery.”
