Chapter 409 : Traveling Alone (3)
"I see," Qiao Wei said after Zhang Fengxi finished summarizing the events of the past five years for him.
"I am glad. I always knew that Big Brother would make a great ruler in my stead."
Zhang Fengxi arched his brow at Qiao Wei.
"And a tyrannical one with lots of eyes and ears scattered all over the Heavenly Realm."
Xie Jianyu’s awakening was supposed to be a closely guarded secret within the four walls of Fuxi Palace, but the Heavenly Emperor happened to hear about it.
Xie Jianshen literally descended from his throne and visited Fuxi Palace in person, only to find his beloved brother tucked neatly inside his bed chamber, his eyes squeezed shut as usual, responding to nothing and no one.
When Xie Jianshen’s mood soured, the shadow of his displeasure stretched long and wide, engulfing everyone in its reach.
He was particularly displeased with Zhang Fengxi, who took the chance to entangle with his wife as soon as the latter opened his eyes.
"Shameless," he said on that day.
Even with the supreme general kneeling in silent obedience, Xie Jianshen’s voice lashed out, a whip of scorn echoing through the chamber. "You were supposed to report this matter to me as soon as Little Yu opened his eyes!"
In order to placate Xie Jianshen, Zhang Fengxi said nothing in retort, lest the infuriated ruler might just decide to drag Xie Jianyu’s body off to the Golden Dragon Palace in the hope of being the first person Xie Jianyu saw when the latter opened his eyes again.
