Chapter 67: Counterattack and Revenge

  Hearing that Xi'er was gone, Qingkuang raised her head and looked in that direction, instantly panicking. Her Xi'er, her treasure...

  Seeing her pale face and bright red eyes, Ximen Linfeng knew that something was wrong. Along the way, they had been affectionate, whispering sweet nothings to each other, and calling him "darling" in front of everyone. Now that the child was gone, what were they going to do?

  "Hey, calm down, don't rush, just wait a minute, let's finish this game first. Win or lose, we'll all go with you to find her." Dongfang Ji repeatedly comforted her, sensing her unstable emotions.

  At this time, she couldn't listen to his words anymore. She had to go find her child. What if something happened to her Xier? What if he was taken away by bad people? What if he couldn't find his mother? Would he be scared? Would he panic...

  As the saying goes, "concern leads to chaos". At this time, Zhan Guang had completely forgotten how ruthless and merciless his son was when he killed the Earth Dragon. After all, he is Mo Jiu Yu's son, so how can one underestimate this majestic demon child?

  But on the other hand, Xuan Xi had just taken the stage with a light and proud attitude when Beidong Xin'er and Huangfu Mingjia encountered an unexpected situation.

  At every college gathering, there were many attendants helping out and running errands. Now two attendants dressed as such walked over: "Excuse me, are you Beidong Xiner and Huangfu Mingjia?"

  The two of them exchanged a puzzled glance, and Beidong Xiner asked, "Are you us? Who are you, and what's going on?"

  "We are the attendants of this grand occasion. There were some errors in your previous scores, so now we need to verify them with you." The tall man said seriously.

  "Is there an error? The results have already been announced, what could be wrong?" Beitang Xiner looked at the person in front of her with confusion.

  "The grades can't be changed, but after all, such a thing has happened, it will have a bad impact on your reputation or the college's reputation, so I still hope you two can get past this."

  "Alright, okay!" After some thought, Beidong Xiner nodded, hoping that she wouldn't cause any trouble for the academy because of her. "Cough, that Xuanxi, you come with us, okay? Just for a little while and then we'll wait for your mother together, can we?"

  "Two of you, taking such an important matter with a little kid, isn't that too casual? So, you see..." the tall man reminded her.

  But she can't just leave it alone after entrusting the child to her care! Looking at Huangfu Mingjia, seeing that she is also frowning, this is going to be troublesome.

  "Come on, you two, hurry up. There are already people watching from over there. You two go and come back quickly, we can also finish our work quickly."

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, following his line of sight, someone was indeed waiting anxiously.

  "Otherwise, the two of you can go with me first and leave him here to watch the kids. When you come back, we'll hand the kids over to you." As he spoke, the tall man pointed to the short and stout person beside him.

  Hesitated for a moment, Beitang Xiner couldn't make up her mind.

  "Hehe, you two just go ahead, I'll watch the kid for you, definitely wait for your return." The short and stout man who had not spoken all along smiled foolishly, seeing the two girls looking at him, his face turned red as he scratched his head, feeling quite embarrassed.

  "Exactly, with so many people here, where can we take the child? This kid will cry nonstop later on, and a big man like him definitely won't be able to handle it, so you guys need to hurry up."

  "Alright... then, Xuan Xi, wait for us, we'll be back soon." Thinking that they would clear up the misunderstanding once they got there and could return immediately, Bei Tang Xin Er made her decision.

  Two people followed the tall man walking in that direction, turning their heads as they walked, seeing the short and stout man still smiling "sincerely" and waving at her, before urging the man beside him to quicken his pace.

  As they walked away, the short and stout man's silly face suddenly turned sinister and cunning, his eyes gleaming with a cold light as he stared at the little girl.

  But it's a despicable trick played by lowly humans, and those two foolish women are really easy to deceive. Xuan Xi despises them in his heart. And this person in front of him, being such a young child, wouldn't naturally make enemies, so is he targeting his mother? He wants to see who the mastermind behind the scenes is!

  The man's face was twisted in a scowl as he stared at him, still wanting to reach out and hug him. Xuan Xi's eyes flashed with red light, the demonic tribe's pressure suddenly rendering him immobile. Just then, the three divine officials on stage suddenly became serious, exchanging a glance, each seeing confirmation in the other's eyes - there was a demon!

  The stout man was swept away by a glance, his heart trembling non-stop. He looked up again and it was still that "harmless" little doll, looking at him with those pure eyes. Was everything just an illusion? But what about the deep-seated fear and apprehension in his soul?

  "Little doll, come on, uncle will take you to find something fun! There's also a lot of food, many little dolls are there!" Thinking about it, such a little doll, weak and fragile, one hand can crush him to death, picking him up is the simplest thing, just coaxing him a bit, he'll definitely follow obediently.

  Speaking with such an insignificant human, Xuan Xi was disdainful, but he had his own purpose, which was to dig out everyone who wanted to harm Mother. Thinking of this, another red light flashed by. Looking at the people fighting on stage, Mother might have to wait a while longer, and he would be back soon.

  Thinking of this, he jumped down from the chair and took a glance at the man. The short and stout man thought to himself, "Hmph, what a kid, hearing something fun, can't resist the temptation."

  The tall man who led the way for Bei Tang Xiner saw that the little boy had obediently followed his companion and immediately thought of a way to escape.

  "Oh no, my stomach hurts, what did I just eat... Ugh... *groan*..." A bright red face, clutching their stomach in embarrassment, releasing some foul-smelling gas.

  Bei Tang Xiner and Huang Fu Mingjia immediately distanced themselves from him, covering their noses with their sleeves. Upon hearing that rumbling stomach sound again, their faces turned somewhat disgusted. As a princess of the imperial family and a young lady from a noble family, who dared to be so crude in front of them?

  "Ow, ow, no... it can't be... my stomach, my stomach, it hurts so badly..." The man's face was scrunched up in distress.

  "Go quickly! Honestly..." He said irritably and waved his hand impatiently.

  "Good grief, I'm such a lazy bum, excuse me for a sec, I'll be right back, I'll be right back..." He said this while backing away with an awkward gait, then the tall man suddenly took off running.

  "How crude..."

  "There are all kinds of people, don't mind too much." Seeing her displeased expression, Huangfu Mingjia stepped forward to comfort her.

  As time went on and the person still didn't return, the two of them became increasingly impatient. Thinking carefully about it, if there really was a mistake, why wouldn't they inform them through the college instead of coming to find them directly? This wasn't right. Seeing the doubt in each other's eyes, Huangfu Mingjia pulled her and started walking back.

  "Hurry back, I've been feeling uneasy in my heart all along."

  "Yes! Don't let anything happen......" Beitang Xiner's heart was like carrying fifteen buckets, fluctuating up and down.

  When the two of them hurried back to the rest area, where was that short and fat man? Even Qian Kuang's son was nowhere to be seen. This time, the two of them were completely stunned, and then there was the previous scene.

  Bei Tang Xin'er and Huang Fu Ming Jia frantically searched everywhere, but couldn't find anyone. Suddenly, she burst into tears: "What to do, what to do? I promised Qing Kuang that everything would be fine and that I'd help take care of her son... now, what can I do... waaahhh..."

  Huangfu Mingjia was also in a state of utter confusion at that time. She was originally young and had not experienced any major events, and her family had overprotected her to the point where she had lost all sense of direction.

  Looking at the stage where Qing Kuang was struggling, Bei Tang Xiner could no longer hold back and shouted towards Qing Kuang: "Qing Kuang, Qing Kuang, what to do, Xuan Xi is gone...... Waaahhh......"

  At this time, the lightly mad woman on stage was already anxious and wanted to go find her son, her Xier. These people were all blocking her way, unforgivable, unforgivable!

  Her entire spiritual power soared to an extreme point, countless life elements didn't even have time to transform into fire-type spiritual power and directly burst forth. The fiery red spiritual power mixed with white gold sparks, shining brightly and magnificently, accompanied by a wild explosion. The other four people also coordinated with her, adding their own spiritual power to hers. The bright red color of the fire, the dazzling golden color, the deep purple color, the thick earthy yellow color, and the strong but colorless wind blade all converged together. In an instant, the winds changed colors, a massive pillar of spiritual power several meters in diameter crashed down towards the five people below, accompanied by crackling thunder, the wind blade swirling with raging flames, blowing up sandstorms, instantly putting immense pressure on the five people from Nan Ling.

  The five members of the Nanling Academy looked increasingly ugly, gritting their teeth and persevering desperately, even if their hands were shaking unconsciously. Everyone wanted to win this victory. With a loud "boom", the powerful spiritual pillar collided with the spiritual circles of the five again, causing the people below to dodge and retreat to a safe position, but they couldn't bear to blink their eyes, watching carefully.

  Gradually, the five people's spiritual power at Nanling Academy became more and more unstable. One person accidentally fell to the ground, and in an instant, their spiritual power circle was missing a corner, which was shattered by the spiritual pillar that had been mocking them. The strange circle disappeared, and the unstoppable spiritual pillar struck the high platform beneath their feet, causing it to crack open inch by inch along the massive deep ditch. The five people were shaken off, tumbling several meters away in disarray. Meanwhile, the magical artifact that had been maintaining the five-person spiritual circle also revealed its true face at this moment. With a few dull thuds, it finally came to rest in the middle.

  A palm-sized, disc-shaped artifact with five crystal nuclei of different colors inlaid on top, and a formation pattern drawn in the middle. It's probably this artifact that allows their spiritual powers to achieve balance and become one.

  They lacked a treasure, and when it came to single combat, they were definitely not light and crazy opponents. At this time, Qing Kuang's heart was anxious, naturally, he didn't hold back his hands, his moves were fast, ruthless, and accurate, the fierce moves, the powerful spiritual power, ordinary people couldn't withstand, soon defeated and fell.

  As Ling Kuang withdrew his hand, the other four also successively knocked each other off the high platform.

  "The Empire Academy wins!"

  Who cares about winning or losing now, seeing her arrogant and complacent expression has become somewhat deranged, hurry to hold her back, constantly comforting her.

  Shaking off the hand that was holding hers, she rushed to Beitang Xiner's face: "Where is my son? What's going on, tell me!"

  "Wuuu... I'm sorry, really sorry... I..."

  "Where's my son?" A loud shout, startled Beidong Xiner, her eyes welled up with tears, but she held them back, trembling. The current situation was terrifying, as if they were going to devour her, and at this thought, she shrank back even further.

  "Hey, don't get angry, this time it's really our fault, I apologize to you. Just now when you guys just went on stage, two men, one tall and one short, came over and said there was a problem with our previous results, asking us to go take a look. We were also worried and wanted to bring Xuan Xi along, but the taller guy said it wasn't that simple..."

  "So you're going to abandon my son?" Interrupting Huangfu Mingjia's words, Qingkong's face was extremely unpleasant.

  Thinking of their thoughtlessness, Huangfu Mingjia felt ashamed and lowered her head.

  "It's not right for them to be so reckless, but let's hear them out and see if there are any clues." After all, it was his own sister's mistake, so Huangfu Mingbo could only try his best to make amends. "Mingjia, continue speaking."

  "Uh-huh, then the short guy said he'd help take care of things, we thought it would be a quick trip, so we followed the tall guy. But halfway there, that man suddenly disappeared. We didn't think much of it and hurried back, but when we got back, Xuan Xi was gone, and those two men were nowhere to be found either. I'm really sorry, I'm truly sorry..."

  "I'm sorry..." North Tang Xin'er whispered, hiding behind.

  Two men, one tall and one short, in a vast sea of people, where can you find them?

  Seeing her small face icy cold, Ximen Rongyao could only comfort: "Qingkuang, calm down first, think about it, they haven't been gone for long, and they have a child with them, they shouldn't be able to go far, let's..."

  Before he finished speaking, the figure of the frivolous person disappeared. She wanted to go find her Yue Er. If anything happened to Yue Er... a thread of blood crept into her eyes.

  But speaking of Xuan Xi, he followed the short and stout man for a while, and the tall man who had lured away those two foolish women also rushed to join them. Apparently, they thought that a child of only three or four years old would not understand anything, so they did not avoid him at all.

  "Has that child been kidnapped?"

  "That's all right, but just a little kid, can still turn the sky upside down?"

  "Hurry up, Your Highness is waiting!" As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them took hold of Xuan Xi's arms, one on each side, and were puzzled that the little kid wasn't making a fuss or crying, but instead was quietly following them.

  They walked to a broken courtyard, and after knocking on the door several times, it was opened from inside. The dilapidated courtyard must have been abandoned for a long time, with spider webs and dust everywhere. There were also a few people standing in the yard, and Xuan Xi frowned in disgust at the dirty environment.

  "We report to Your Highness, the person has been brought." The two men knelt on one knee and clasped their fists in respect.

  At this time, a person appeared behind the crowd, and upon closer inspection, it was actually Lou Nan Empire's Fifth Prince, Lou Ruo Ran!

  Looking at the little doll in front of him, it was his mother who had been causing trouble for him time and again, not only snatching things from her but also hurting his beloved Yan'er. What was most unforgivable was that his mother had caused him to lose face completely. This grudge must be avenged! Now that he had caught this little kid, should he kill her and let that woman die of heartbreak? Or use the child to threaten that dead woman?

  It's this person after all! Not to mention being incompetent and arrogant, they even snatched the jade hairpin that was meant for Mother. This is unforgivable. Her eyes turned red in an instant, staring at Lou Ruo Yan with a bloodthirsty gaze.

  His whole body trembled, but Lou Ruo Nan would rather die than admit he was afraid of a three or four year old kid. And that gaze, he really disliked it, extremely disliked it!

  "Give it to me!" He thought, directly killing the little demon, waiting to see the woman's liver and intestines broken when she received the little demon's corpse. Just thinking about it made his blood boil.

  These insignificant humans, he didn't even put them in his eyes, and personally taking action would still sully his own hands! His eyes suddenly turned blood red, with the same demonic charm, staring straight at the people rushing up to him. Suddenly, the movements of those people's hands came to a halt, their eyes became murky and unfathomable, their thoughts ceased, and they directly hacked at the person next to them with their knives. The knife light flashed by, blood splattered everywhere, some were cleanly beheaded, others had their arms and legs chopped off. Both the ones doing the hacking and those being hacked didn't have any sensation, except for the sound of the knife entering and exiting flesh, the scene was extremely eerie. Seeing the fresh blood flowing out, Xuan Xi became even more excited, with an even brighter red glow in his eyes.

  Lou Ruolan looked at her subordinates in disbelief, how could they kill each other? What's going on here? Seeing that little devil smiling with bloodlust, it must be his doing, it must be!

  "You little demon, is that you? What have you done? What's going on?" Lou Ruo Ran's voice had become sharp, humans instinctively feared the unknown and the eerie.

  What a racket! A pair of red pupils narrowed, giving orders to those "people", and suddenly everyone's attention turned to their master. Nothing could enter those dull gray eyes, only the sound of chopping him, chopping him...

  Seeing those corpses get back up again, wielding bloody knives and charging towards him, Lou Ruo felt like he was going crazy - how could such a terrifying thing happen? Those people were clearly dead, so why were they getting back up now? The pain from his arm brought him back to his senses, and he clutched at the wound as he retreated a step. A series of golden spiritual energies shot towards these former subordinates of his, but these "puppets" just fell down and got back up again, advancing relentlessly even after losing their heads, using their hands to drag themselves forward if they'd lost their legs, refusing to stop until they'd hacked him to death.

  "Cold sweat poured down, Lou Ruo Ran's courage was already broken, 'Ah... don't come over... don't let you come, it's you! It's you! I know it's you... You're not human, you're a monster...'"

  Looking at the people shouting and screaming, Xuan Xi was not bothered at all. He wasn't human to begin with; he was a demon! However, those screams were truly ear-piercing. Should he cut out their tongues? Tilting his head, Xuan Xi fell into thought.

  As for this bloody scene, Qing Kuang was completely unaware of it, and now she is being questioned one by one!

  "Have you seen two men, one tall and one short, with a child..."

  "A three- or four-year-old child, have you seen..."

  "Did you see two men taking a child walking in that direction?"

  "Is there...?"

  Grabbing the arm of a passerby, he asked recklessly like a madman, and the people following behind him couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

  "Lightly mad, lightly mad...... The old man said that he saw a tall and short one, huffing and puffing, walking in this direction......" Just as Ximen Qingxue's words fell, a residual shadow flashed before her eyes, followed by several human shadows flying over, "Hey, hey, you guys wait for me, let me catch my breath first..."

  Upon hearing the scream, Zhan Liangkong kicked open the broken courtyard door with one foot, and standing in the middle wasn't her precious darling?

  "Xī ěr!"

  "Mom..."

  She rushed forward, and with a gentle yet firm grasp, she tightly hugged her little one in her arms. At this moment, she forgot that her son was not an ordinary child from any family, and he wouldn't be in any danger. But after all, she was just a mother, and when her son went missing, all she could feel was worry.

  "Let me take a look, are you hurt anywhere? Does it hurt anywhere?" With trembling hands, she touched his head and face, carefully checking again and again. Seeing that he was fine, she hugged the little ball of flesh tightly in her arms, holding him close.

  "Xiao'er, Xiao'er, Mom's treasure, scared Mom to death, scared Mom to death..." The soft and chubby little face felt the warmth and finally calmed down.

  "Mother... Xi'er is fine..." It took a while for the red glow in her eyes to fade away, returning to their normal black color.

  Beidong Qi and others also appeared in the yard, looking at the scattered limbs on the ground, feeling astonished in their hearts. This speed is too fast! In just a blink of an eye, they were all knocked down? If they knew that everything before them was done by this little kid, I wonder what they would think?

  "Huff, you... are not making sense, make sense already..." Propping herself against the door frame, Ximen Qingyang panted heavily, and with a stumble, she tumbled in. It turned out that the large door had been kicked loose by Xiao Feng earlier.

  "Xiao Er, didn't Mother say that if you have something to discuss, you should talk to Mother? If Mother can't find you, she'll worry and be scared. Don't just disappear suddenly, do you know?"

  "It's all Xier's fault, making Mother worry." Xiao Pang touched her face with his hand, looking straight into her eyes.

  "Alright, alright, as long as the person is found. But can any of you tell me what's going on here? Look at all this blood in the courtyard, these wounds... whoever did this was ruthless!"

  It wasn't until now that everyone discovered there was another one over there gasping for air!

  "He's not human...not...there are monsters, he is a monster..." Lou Ruo Yan, who had fallen to the ground, was already scared out of his wits, shouting loudly with a crazed expression.

  "Huh? Isn't this Lou Nan's doing? Is it him who did it?"

  Upon hearing this, a burst of violent energy erupted from his body. He grabbed Lou Ruo Yan's front collar and slammed him to the ground. Unrelenting, he punched him repeatedly, causing him to spit out blood nonstop, without loosening his grip.

  I know she's venting her worries from just now, but like this, all of a sudden, won't it kill someone?!

  This scum, a despicable person, a shameless lowlife, not only did he target her but also dared to kidnap her son. Since he's asking for death, she'll grant it to him!

  "Cough...cough...stop hitting me..."

  "Aren't you itchy? I'll scratch you loose!" With one kick, he struck his chest and directly knocked down several pillars behind him, falling into the ruins.

  "Cough...cough..." After a short while, Lou Ruolan was already breathing more in than out.

  "Take my son away, take him away from me! Get up for me!" He grabbed his chest and pulled him out of the ruins again, throwing him into the courtyard.

  "Easy does it, don't take it too far, no need to get anyone killed." After all, this was someone else's turf, and Beitang Qimeng pulled her back.

  The Beidong Xiner behind him hid behind, it's so scary and terrifying. Brother, don't stop her! Let her vent out completely, otherwise she'll "torture" me when we get back!

  Breathing heavily with a hint of madness, looking at the stains on his hands, he irritably wiped them off.

  Just as Qing Kuang was about to stop, several figures appeared in the courtyard, and it was Lou Nan's prince, Lou Xuan.

  "What does this mean? Who has beaten up the Crown Prince of the Southern Palace like this?" The Crown Prince asked loudly as soon as he arrived.

  "What does it mean? Of course, the prince from your southern building lost and didn't accept it, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, and even kidnapped a child. This is the hospitality of your southern building?"

  "A few things can be eaten casually, but words cannot be spoken casually." Feng Yan's eyes narrowed, and it was clear that the Crown Prince was displeased.

  "Who spoke nonsense? It was these two who led us astray and kidnapped the young master." Beitang Xiner intervened, looking at Zhan Qingcang with a flattering expression.

  "Oh, these two are definitely not from our building's south side, so the kidnapping incident really has nothing to do with us at all."

  "How can you be like this? It's obviously your fault!" The matter was pushed clean and neat, Beitang Xiner's eyes turned red with anger.

  Don't acknowledge? Daring to do but not daring to be, humph, what a majestic South Building Prince! Relying on them being outsiders, thinking that what he says goes just because he's Lou Nan?

  He picked up the muddy water by his feet and slapped it on his face, "Say, did you kidnap my son?"

  "Cough... cough..."

  "Cough again and I'll make sure you never cough for the rest of your life!"

  Lou still had a few wits about her and stubbornly held back her cough, nearly choking in the process.

  "I'll ask you again, in front of Prince Nan Taizi, speak clearly, did you kidnap my son?"

  "Hmm...there is..."

  "For what?"

  "You... cough, cough... the grudge of snatching the hairpin, Yan'er, Yan'er... for the sake of face... face..." He said intermittently, and fresh blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth.

  "Prince Nanshan, now you can hear clearly. You, the prince of Nanshan, have a petty and vengeful heart. He has admitted it himself. What else do you have to say?" A pair of beautiful eyes blazed with fierce anger, staring at Lou Jingyan.

  "This, this, I apologize to you for the wrongdoing done by my brother, the emperor. I hope you can give me some face." He cursed himself as an idiot, and when pressed for questioning, he confessed everything.

  "Are you selling me face? Hehe, how much is your face worth? Why should I give you face?" She was so arrogant and domineering, daring anyone to block her way!

  "You! Don't forget that this is happening in front of my building!" Upon hearing these words, Lou's face suddenly fell.

  "What's going on in your building? In your building, you guys are the ones who make the rules, and you can loot, kill, and do all sorts of evil things? Today I'm going to teach him a lesson, how about that? I just don't like him, so I'll teach him a lesson. Just because his last name is Lou, I hit him, what are you going to do with me?" One question, one punch, and Lou Ruo Yan was already unable to make a sound.

  "You!" This was a public slap in his face, when had the young master of Building South ever suffered such humiliation?

  "What am I? I just don't put you in my eyes, you're the crown prince, and we still have the imperial son! And the young masters of the four great families?! Today, I just beat up Lou Nan Huangzi for nothing. If you dare to retaliate again, wait for war between our two countries! Now, this useless waste is returned to you. From now on, when you see me, walk around me, otherwise, I'll hit you once every time I see you, did you hear that?!" She knocked Lou Ruo Ran's head against the ground several times and kicked him back, then picked up her son and walked away with a light smile without looking back.

  After listening to her words, it took everyone a while to come back to their senses. They exchanged a bewildered glance and followed her.

  The abandoned building stood upright, giving a cold stare at the useless trash. Looking at the crowd walking away in the distance, there was no warmth in its eyes.

  "Crown Prince!" Someone stepped forward from behind him.

  "Seize the opportunity and get rid of them!" Everyone who didn't put him in his place, everyone who was disrespectful to him would all go to hell! That woman, humph!

  "Help him up, let's go." With a disdainful glance at the person who had been beaten to a pulp on the ground, Lou Jingyan took the man and disappeared again.

  Following the light and crazy, no one dares to try touching the tiger's whiskers on her temper. You look at me, I look at you, and finally we all look at Ximen Ruxin, meaning that if you don't go to hell, who will?

  So, Ximen Ruxin put on a gloomy face and sidled up to her, saying with feigned casualness: "Hm, the weather is really nice today!"

  "The clouds are so white..." Seeing her ignoring him, Ximen Ruxue quickly turned back to seek help, and was encouraged by everyone's gaze, and continued to make an effort.

  "The flowers are quite red... The New Year's cake in this house is delicious..." Ignoring him, with "tearful eyes" he turned back again, and was swept by their countless dagger-like gazes, instantly giving a chill.

  "This, the kid... " As soon as he opened his mouth, he was startled by Zhan Qing's intense stare. "Wh-wh-what's wrong? Heh, heh, heh..."

  Today she was impulsive, no matter how angry she was, she shouldn't have involved these people. "From today on, keep a distance from me, and you guys don't take any action alone."

  As soon as she said this, everyone understood.

  "Lightly crazy, you are our friend, what's wrong with you, we can't ignore you." Beitang Qimeng comforted her with a smile.

  "Yes, that's right. Even if the two countries really go to war, the iron cavalry of the Ga Holy Empire will still trample Lou Nan flat." It's just a small country behind the buttocks of the Ga Holy Empire, what's so great about it.

  "It's all right, don't be afraid of them, we've got your back. Be bold and do what you want, if they get too much, I'll make sure to cut off their economic lifeline in Lou Nan, let's see how arrogant they can be!" Ximen Lingfeng patted her shoulder, laughing heartlessly.

  Looking at each and every sincere little face, he burst out with a loud voice from his heart: "Thank you!"

  "What's the matter, who are we to each other? But you're okay, right? And your son is also okay? So many corpses, weren't they scared?" Ximen Linfeng asked worriedly as she looked at the little one leaning on her shoulder.

  "It's nothing." Thinking back to those people's injuries, they weren't caused by one person, it's just unknown how Ye'er did it. As long as Ye'er is safe, that's all that matters. Holding the little guy in his arms, he finally felt at ease.

  "Lightly arrogant, really worthy of being your son, equally fierce, and don't know if it's following you or his father." The words that came out without thinking made Ximen Rongxue realize that the trouble had come from her mouth, and now she didn't dare to look at her face either.

  He stopped in his tracks, "The child's father? That man..."

  "Of course I will!" He said loudly and recklessly, shaking off the discontent in his heart.

  "Whatever, whatever, of course whatever!" Qingkong had never mentioned the child's father before, it was clear that this was her painful past. How could he be so tactless? It was all because of this broken mouth that caused trouble, and she slapped herself in frustration.

  Others also blamed Ximen Yurou, who was being criticized by everyone. However, as long as she's safe now, that's all that matters. Seeing her calm down, Beidong Xiner and Huangfu Mingjia walked to her side.

  "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

  "Sorry."

  "It's all our fault for being careless, which led to your son getting into this situation. I'm really sorry." Beitang Xiner looked at her with guilt, as well as the little one who was lying on her shoulder, seemingly "traumatized".

  "I'm also very sorry." Huangfu Mingjia felt equally guilty, as one of the few princesses of the imperial family, she was truly protected too well, and if something like this happened again in the future, she would definitely have to think more.

  "It's okay, don't blame yourselves." With Yier's ability, if he didn't want to go, no one could take him away. Just now, she was too anxious and forgot that her son was different from others.

  Listening to her say words of forgiveness so lightly, both of their hearts felt even more distressed. They wanted to say something else, but didn't know where to start. After all, the other person had already forgiven them, and repeatedly explaining things would just seem insincere.

  Beidong Xiner looked at her big brother for help, what to do?

  "Alright, Xiang'er, don't you know that her reckless personality means she really forgives you when she says so? You don't have to worry about it in your heart. However, from now on, when something happens, think more carefully, got it?" Beitang Qiemo took the opportunity to teach her, poking her forehead.

  "It's just that, I don't know, moving one's brain a bit..."

  "Ximen Qingxue! Who do you say is brainless?" Having been comforted, Beidong Xiner immediately regained her vitality, and with a puffed-up face, she fired back at him.

  "I didn't say you're brainless, it's what you said yourself."

  "You didn't say it, but you were thinking it."

  "How do you know what I'm thinking, are you a tapeworm in my stomach? So you know what I'm thinking?" Clearly joking words from his mouth, but somehow it sounds so sarcastic.

  "You say who's a bug, you're the bug, your whole family are bugs, disgusting and ugly stinky bugs."

  Under the sunset's rays, several people returned to their usual playful and laughing selves, as if the bloody scene just before was just a fleeting cloud.

  After dinner, I said goodbye to them and returned to my own room. After washing myself clean, I bathed my son until he was fair and tender, then carried him back to the bed and gently wiped his hair while talking to him.

  "Xiao Er, Mother wants to know, why did you follow them?"

  "I want to see who dares to be unfavorable to my mother."

  Upon hearing this, Qing Kuang's hands paused momentarily before wiping even more gently. "Hui'er, is it for Mother today?"

  "Hmm! Xi'er wants to protect Mother." The little head in her hand nodded, yawned, and gazed at her with shining eyes. It seemed that it would take some time for the magic of the Yuemo Stone to be fully utilized.

  "Is the little one sleepy? Mom will hold you to sleep." It turns out that her precious son had risked his life for her sake. The little ball of flesh always did things that moved her, making her want to hug him tightly in her arms. Her hands moved quickly to make his bed, and she held the little guy as he lay down, extinguishing the candlelight, and mother and son entered dreamland together.

  As he saw the mother and son fall asleep, the big stone in Mo Jiu's heart also fell. Since the Dragon Ring had an unusual movement, he would "watch" them whenever he had time. When he saw that the little thing was gone, his little servant girl anxiously searched for it, thinking that the little boy was also his kind, what could have happened? However, when he saw her anxious face, he still reached out to touch the image, wanting to smooth out her furrowed brow. When the little servant girl found it and burst into anger, he almost lost control of himself, wanting to tear the human into pieces. His little servant girl should be happy and carefree, and all things that made her angry should be left to him to handle. Later, seeing her beat someone with a fierce expression, he liked it even more, and this spirit was something he couldn't forget.

  However, when he saw the man with a sly smile next to her, he couldn't help but frown. It was him again! Why wasn't it him by Xiaoyu's side? Why did she dislike him so much? Why wouldn't she even let him touch her?

  The scenes of their past encounters flashed before his eyes, the innocence and beauty of their first meeting, the sharp confrontation at their second encounter, the ruthless moves he made towards her, the hateful gaze, the heartless words. Just thinking about it made his heart feel sour and churned up. What was this feeling after all? Who could he ask? How should he deal with that little girl anyway?

  Wipe away the sourness, looking at the sleeping little face in the shadow, Mo Jiu's gentle and affectionate touch, it would be great if he could just obediently stay by his side, every time he wakes up to show him a smile would be great, Xiao Yu being gentler with him would be great...

  Her fingers moved lightly, and the image in front of her changed. The sun was shining brightly, and the birds were singing sweet melodies. The whole world had only the two of them. Xiao Yazi smiled and flung herself into his arms, rubbing against his broad chest like a kitten. Her bright eyes looked up at him, smiling tenderly. Her moist, big eyes reflected only his shadow. He wrapped his arms tightly around her slender waist, gazing at her plump lips, getting closer bit by bit. His nostrils were filled with Xiao Yazi's breath. Finally, he took her sweet lips into his mouth, teasing and nibbling gently, entwining his tongue with hers. Xiao Yazi also responded passionately to him. The strength of his hands gradually deepened until she let out a soft cry. Xiao Yazi did not struggle or resist; she didn't show any disgust. She leaned against his chest obediently, her desire growing stronger...

  Coming back to reality from his reverie, Mo Jiu couldn't help but sigh bitterly. Everything was just a reflection in the water, a flower in the mirror. If she were really such an obedient child, then she wouldn't be his little servant girl. A deep sigh echoed through the vast Demon Emperor's palace...
