Inside the airship, Yue'er settled beside the Azure Emperor, leaning against him. "Master," she asked, "can we go see Uncle Mo Chen? He ascended; can we go visit him?"
The Azure Emperor, with his eyes closed and one hand propping his head, didn't even open them. "No," he stated.
"Why not? No one will recognize us now," Yue'er blinked, a puzzled expression on her face.
Hearing this, the Azure Emperor opened his eyes, sat upright, and glanced at the two individuals not far away, then at the little girl beside him. He slowly said, "Your mother didn't send you to me so you could visit relatives. If you have free time, you'd better use it to practice." He then looked at Yue'er. "Have you memorized your whip technique?"
"I've memorized it, but I haven't practiced it all yet," Yue'er replied softly.
