Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

Long Shaoyu stopped the bow-wielding boy, and with a gentle smile, he said, "Alright, no problem, once we're at the valley of the fire hogs, we can see the others and kill them."

Seeing this, the bow-wielding boy could only glare fiercely at Chu Xin, and sulk on his own.

As Chu Chen chewed on the grilled meat, he tugged at Chu Xin's sleeve with his greasy little meaty hand and whispered, "Sister, Dad said there are many villains outside who kidnap children. Do you think they look like child kidnappers?"

Chu Xin's round eyes swept over the trio including Long Shaoyu and she responded in a low voice, "I don't know what child kidnappers look like either."

"That's right, we've never seen one."

Chu Chen tilted his little head, pondered for a moment, and then whispered, "Should we use a Truth Talisman to ask?"

"Good idea!"

Chu Xin's eyes lit up and, pretending to be serious, she cleared her throat, ready to speak, when the bow-wielding boy angrily said, "Have you two little brats had enough? Our young master is..."

Before he could finish, his mouth was covered by Long Shaoyu, who then turned to Chu Xin and Chu Chen with a sad face and said, "I think of you as little sister and brother, yet you do not trust me, truly heartbreaking."

Chu Chen blinked his large eyes a couple of times, stared into Long Shaoyu's eyes, and asked with confusion, "Are you really heartbroken? I don't see you crying, though."

"Uh..."

Long Shaoyu's expression stiffened, suddenly at a loss for words.

"Damn it, I can't stand this temper of mine, I must shoot that damned little brat dead!"

The once quiet bow-wielding boy was again fuming with rage, his large bow raised once more.

Long Shaoyu, being the Young Master of Cangzhou, held a prestigious status, and as his companions, they were respected wherever they went. Now, they had been challenged over and over again by two three-year-old toddlers, and he couldn't stand it.

"Companion children" are the boys who accompany Long Shaoyu in his studies and cultivation, enjoying resources second only to Long Shaoyu himself. However, their lives were also bound to his.

If Long Shaoyu died, they would all die.

Long Shaoyu turned his head and glared at the bow-wielding boy, and said coldly, "Keep it down."

The bow-wielding boy shrank his neck and once again zipped his lips, but his gaze towards Chu Xin and Chu Chen became even more displeased.

Meanwhile, Long Shaoyu took the moment he scolded the bow-wielding boy to wink and squint fiercely, somehow squeezing out two tears, turned back with a sad face and said, "Little sister, everything I've said is true. There really are many fire hogs in the valley, and I truly mean no harm to you, I'm definitely not a child kidnapper."

Chu Xin stared at the two teardrops at the corner of his eyes and nodded her little head, saying, "It doesn't seem right to use the Truth Talisman after we've eaten grilled meat together."

"Mhm, mhm!"

Long Shaoyu nodded again and again, relief washing over him as a faint smile appeared on his face.

It had not been easy to encounter a lone double-headed fire hog, and he was certainly not willing to give up just like that.

He had thought that tricking two three-year-old kids would be easy, but he hadn't expected these kids to be so vigilant. Fortunately, he had managed to deal with them in the end.

"Big brother, then make a vow," Chu Xin said with a mischievous smile, "If you deceive us, you shall be struck by lightning and die."

The smile on Long Shaoyu's face froze—so much for playing on their emotions.

"This temper of mine!"

The bow-wielding boy was engulfed in anger once again.

Even the square-faced boy's face showed signs of anger.

Long Shaoyu took a deep breath, glared at both of them, rubbed his cheeks to relax his expression, and with a smile said, "Alright, no problem, I'll take the oath."

Then he swore to the heavens, "I, Long Shaoyu, swear by the heavens that if I deceive Ai Chirou and Ai Kaorou, I shall be struck by heavenly lightning, reduced to ashes, without a trace of my bones remaining."

After making the oath, he looked down at Chu Xin and Chu Chen and asked, "Is that good enough now?"

"Yeah! It's good now."

Chu Xin nodded her little head, and with her hands hidden behind her back, she crushed a talisman seal. An invisible energy entered Long Shaoyu's body.

"Eh?"

Long Shaoyu's brow slightly furrowed, sensing something amiss, but when he tried to feel it with his energy, he found nothing unusual and could only shake his head in confusion.

Oath Talisman?

Chu Chen saw Chu Xin's subtle movement and admired inwardly, "Sister is really smart. With the Oath Talisman, any violation of an oath truly does come to pass."

"Little brother, wash and put away the barbecue grill."

Chu Xin's voice rang out again.

"Okay!"

Chu Chen nodded, drew a White Jade Bottle from the air, and tossed it upward.

With a flick of his fingers, the Jade Bottle turned upside down, pouring out a stream of pure liquid.

The rich fluctuation of spiritual energy rippled outwards, giving Long Shaoyu and the others a feeling that their souls were being cleansed and their bodies were undergoing a baptism.

"What kind of water is this?"

Long Shaoyu's face showed shock.

As the Young Master of Cangzhou, he had seen countless treasures but had never encountered such magical water.

"It's just water for washing dishes and cleaning the barbecue grill,"

Chu Chen said in a childlike tone, then took a brush from the Sumeru Ring and began cleaning the grill.

"You're using this water to clean the barbecue grill?"

Long Shaoyu's mouth twitched slightly. Although he didn't know what this water was, he was certain it was an extraordinary treasure.

Yet this brat was using it to clean a barbecue grill—what a waste of heavenly resources!

"Yep, Daddy says this water can cleanse all the filth in the world, so isn't it meant for washing dishes and cleaning grills?" Chu Chen spoke without looking up from his task.

"Cleanse all the filth in the world?"

Long Shaoyu muttered the phrase to himself, and then his body suddenly shuddered, his eyes revealing a hint of horror, "Could it possibly be the legendary Water of Purification?"

"Water of Purification?"

Chu Chen looked up at him, then leaned close to Chu Xin's ear and whispered, "Sister, is it called Water of Purification?"

Chu Xin furrowed her little brow in thought, then shook her head, "Daddy didn't seem to say it had a name."

"Who cares, I just call it dishwashing water," Chu Chen shrugged, no longer pondering the matter.

Chu Xin, staring at Long Shaoyu's astonished expression, mumbled with pursed lips, "Mm. Dishwashing water sounds more endearing, while that Water of Purification sounds so tacky."

Tacky?

Long Shaoyu's lips moved, but in the end, he said nothing.

"Young Master, what is the Water of Purification?"

The square-faced youth, seeing the Young Master's unusual comportment for the first time, couldn't help but ask in confusion. Experience tales with empire

The boy with the bow also looked up, full of curiosity.

Long Shaoyu took a deep breath, didn't explain further, but looked deeply at the Chu siblings and said through thought transmission, "The Water of Purification can cleanse all the filth in the world and is the bane of all evil spirits. If there is enough Water of Purification, it can even turn a cultivator's body and soul into a Body of Purity and a Pure Soul. Not only would cultivation speed dramatically increase, but also it would prevent the birth of inner demons."

"Holy shit!"

The square-faced youth and the bow-wielding youth cursed in unison, their eyes turning upward to the White Jade Bottle hanging in the air, greedy gleams flickering in their gaze.
