Chapter 420: Chapter 419: The Return of the Crystal Phoenix



If it really came down to it, he would take her away. If he spared no effort, taking her away should still be doable.

Once his power was strong enough in the future, he would bring her back.

Jiali City.

Not until the sunset dipped below the horizon did Pretty Girl quietly leave Redemption Academy.

Despair was hard to hide in her gaze. She had not found the two people she was looking for.

Back at Pretty Girl Milk Tea Shop, the shop hadn\'t closed yet, and Su Qin was busy.

Pretty Girl had already returned last night, and Su Qin was naturally overjoyed. Seeing her, she couldn\'t help but say, "Why did it take a whole day just to go out?"

With a slight frown on her beautiful brows, Pretty Girl said, "Mom, I didn\'t find him."

"Are you talking about that Asura?" Su Qin continued to tidy up while speaking. There were no customers anymore; it was time to close up.

Pretty Girl nodded and then shook her head, "Not just him, Tang San isn\'t here either. Tang San is from Redemption Academy, could you ask Mayor Zhang where he is now? I hope nothing has happened."

Out of curiosity, Su Qin asked, "You seem quite concerned about that Tang San. Mayor Zhang has said that he is very talented. I\'ve seen him a few times too. I don\'t know why, but every time I see his eyes, I always feel like the boy has something on his mind. Didn\'t you say he was sweeping floors at Jiali Academy? He\'s not there anymore?"

Pretty Girl replied, "I\'ve asked around, he left a while ago and hasn\'t been back to work since. Could you please ask for me?"

"Alright, but Mayor Zhang isn\'t in Jiali City either. He went back to headquarters to report for duty. I don\'t know when he will return. I heard headquarters was considering transferring him back. Mayor Zhang somehow learned the art of crafting Array Plates, and the Spirit Gathering Formation Disks have brought not insignificant profits to the organization. He has already been promoted to Blue Level. Of course, I still hope he can stay. After all, we\'ve been working together for a long time."

After closing the milk tea shop, mother and daughter went to their residence in the back. The small house radiated a warm atmosphere.

Pretty Girl looked at the room where she had grown up, and her eyes softened.

Su Qin brought over a basin of water and dipped a clean towel in it before wiping down her body, her back turned to Pretty Girl. It seemed like an accidental question as she asked, "How is he?"

Pretty Girl knew who she was asking about and replied softly, "Not too good. I can vaguely sense that his injuries are severe, and they are difficult to heal."

Su Qin sighed without saying anything else.

Pretty Girl couldn\'t help but say, "Mom, although it\'s not human, it has been quite good to me since I was little. Even its other children haven\'t learned as much as I have, yet it taught me everything it had. It even passed on its ancestral secret techniques to me. It seems to know our purpose, but still supports me taking over its throne. It must truly love you."

Su Qin\'s back stiffened slightly, "Perhaps."

Taking a deep breath as though summoning courage, Pretty Girl said, "Mom, it told me it might not live for many more years. Don\'t you want to see it?"

Su Qin suddenly turned around, her eyes filled with a highly complex expression, "Little Beauty, you are still too young. It\'s not any good person, you don\'t need to listen too much to what it says. You just need to learn well what it teaches you."

"Ah?" Pretty Girl clearly hadn\'t expected her mother to speak to her this way, nor to assess the Great Peacock Demon King in such terms.

Su Qin sighed, and her gaze softened, "I don\'t want you to be tainted by some filthy matters. You only need to know that we are all humans, and although its intentions are impure, they don\'t affect our purpose. We are just using each other. As for love, perhaps it truly loved me. But... let\'s not talk about this anymore. Get some rest, alright? Tomorrow morning, I\'ll go inquire about that Tang San for you."

As she spoke, she turned to continue her washing up. Pretty Girl, however, took two steps forward and hugged her mother from behind, "Mom, whether it truly loves you or not, at least I do. I will always, always love you."

Su Qin\'s expression instantly became more complex as she turned and embraced Pretty Girl, "Mom loves you too. I just hope that you will never be hurt."

Pretty Girl nodded gently, "Mom, I\'ll try my hardest, I\'ll try very, very hard. For you, and for Redemption. We humans will surely have our own space to live."

Just then, Su Qin\'s eyes suddenly sharpened, her gaze flicking toward the window, where a chill of murderous intent burst forth.

"Who\'s there?"

Pretty Girl was also startled awake, straightening quickly in her mother\'s embrace as she looked in the direction of the window.

Outside the window, a voice with a complex tone spoke up, "It\'s me."

Upon hearing the voice, Su Qin\'s expression changed dramatically, and she gently placed her hand on Pretty Girl\'s shoulder, "Wait for mom at home, don\'t go out. Be good."

After she finished, a flash of white light enveloped her, and the next moment, she had passed through the window and out.

Pretty Girl stood up, wanting to go outside, but ultimately, she held back.

Outside Pretty Girl Milk Tea Shop, a tall figure stood there; when he laid eyes on Su Qin, his gaze was clearly tinged with obsession.

"What are you here for?" Su Qin asked coldly.

The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor looked at her with a complicated gaze and answered indirectly, "Is that your and its daughter?"

Su Qin replied coolly, "What if it is? Do you intend to lay a hand on us, a lone mother and child?"

The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, that\'s not it. I just came to see you. I have some important matters to take care of in the Ancestral Court. Once they are settled, I\'ll come for you."

Chill flashed in Su Qin\'s eyes, "If you want to take away a corpse, then come."

The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor clenched his fists suddenly, "Do you love it so much? Can\'t bear to be without it? Let me tell you, after it was severely injured by me last time, it definitely won\'t live past three years. More than a year has already passed. Even if I don\'t come for it, its time is short."

Su Qin didn\'t utter a word, just looked at him coldly.

This newly minted Great Demon Emperor was gradually made uncomfortable by her stare. It took a long while before he slowly said, "No matter what, I will always protect you."

"I don\'t need it," Su Qin said indifferently.

The gaze of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor shifted suddenly toward the direction of the milk tea shop, "You may not need it, but what about her? She is its daughter, and when I come again, the Peacock Demon Clan will cease to exist."

Su Qin suddenly laughed, her smile so beautiful, yet at this moment, it was also filled with an eerie feeling, "Go on then! Come! If you have the guts, then kill, just kill us all. If we\'re all dead, that\'ll be the end of it."

The eyes of the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor became shocked in an instant; this was the first time he had ever seen Su Qin like this.
