"Sisters?"

Sheng Bailan asked in confusion.

Xiao Minghuang smiled without saying a word, quickly tidied herself up, and then walked out of the main hall with Sheng Bailan.

Outside the main hall.

Ye Ruoshui and Xu Xiuer were waiting there.

They were not familiar with Sheng Bailan; they had only met her once before.

Now that I see it again, I don't remember much of it.

"Ruoshui, Xiu'er, let me introduce you. This is the former head of the Spirit Sword Sect, Headmaster Sheng Bailan. From now on, we'll all be good sisters."

At this point, Xiao Minghuang suddenly revealed a playful smile and teased, "Ruoshui, don't bully her!"

"Your Highness underestimates me. How could I possibly bully someone!"

Ye Ruoshui pursed her lips. Although she disliked His Highness flirting with those beautiful women, the die was cast. If she were to do something malicious behind his back, wouldn't that be despicable?

"Greetings, Sect Leader Sheng, I am Xu Xiuer."

Xu Xiuer gave a friendly smile, but with her eyes closed, it was impossible to tell whether she was happy or sad.

"Miss Xiu'er, your eyes..."

Upon their first meeting, Sheng Bailan noticed that Xu Xiuer kept her eyes closed, as if she were blind.

"It's alright, I'm used to it."

Xu Xiuer smiled.

"By the way, Xiu'er, I've found a miracle cure for your eyes. Come with me."

Immediately, Xiao Minghuang took Xu Xiuer's hand and walked back into the hall.

Outside the hall, only Ye Ruoshui and Sheng Bailan remained.

Faced with Ye Ruoshui's indifferent attitude, Sheng Bailan was quite sensible. She could tell that the woman in front of her was probably the most influential "sister" by the Princess Your Highness's side. She had no choice but to humble herself and take the initiative to build a good relationship with her.

"Hello, Sister Ruoshui."

She spoke softly and gently.

"Um."

Ye Ruoshui responded indifferently, without saying anything more.

Seeing this, Sheng Bailan could only give an awkward smile.

She had just woken up and had nothing on her, otherwise I could have given her a small gift or something to try and build a relationship.

For now, we can only wait for another day.

Inside the hall.

Prior to this, Xiao Minghuang had already formed a contract with Sheng Bailan and received ten Nine Revolutions Soul Suppressing Grass as compensation through the system.

Therefore, there is no pressure in treating Xu Xiuer's eye injury now.

She even used five spirit herbs in one go, which not only healed Xu Xiuer's eye injury, but also tempered her Primordial Spirit, greatly enhancing its resilience.

A moment later.

Xu Xiuer slowly opened her eyes, golden light radiating from her pupils.

"My... my eyes are healed!"

After a long while, Xu Xiuer suddenly realized what was happening.

This is... a normal reaction after the eyes regain their sight!

Originally, she was blind, like a blind person. Even with the power of her Primordial Spirit, although she could discern the things around her, they were different from what she saw with her own eyes.

Beyond simply seeing things clearly, what we see is more importantly about experiencing the atmosphere and feeling the emotions within them.

This effect cannot be replaced by the power of the Primordial Spirit.

Now that her eyesight has been restored, Xu Xiuer is astonished to find that her eyesight is even more acute than before!

417. The Destiny Heavenly Eye

Xu Xiuer's gaze shifted, finally settling on Xiao Minghuang in front of her.

However, she discovered something that surprised her.

Before her stood Xiao Minghuang, who had been fully dressed when they entered the hall, now completely naked!

Xu Xiuer's beautiful eyes widened instantly, filled with a look she dared not look directly at, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

"Your Highness... you?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Minghuang saw that Xu Xiuer's eyes were wide open, as if she had seen something unbelievable.

"Xiu'er, are your eyes alright?"

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Xu Xiuer's eye sockets.

However, this scene was too stimulating for Xu Xiuer, so frightening that she involuntarily took two steps back and almost fell.

Xiao Minghuang reacted quickly, grabbing her wrist and pulling her into his arms.

"I... I..."

Xu Xiuer was so excited that she could hardly breathe, and she stammered for a long time without being able to say a word.

However, when she landed in Xiao Minghuang's arms, she could feel that there were still several layers of fabric between them, not as it appeared...

"What's going on..."

Xu Xiuer blinked repeatedly, her pupils gleaming with golden light. She looked to the side, disbelieving.

At that moment, she finally realized.

Not only Xiao Minghuang, but every blade of grass, every tree, every flower, and every leaf in this world can be seen through by her eyes in their most essential form!

The simplest flowers, grasses, and trees are presented in the form of the most microscopic, infinitely small dust particles, interwoven in her vision, as vast and boundless as nebulae.

And those more complex things have also been deconstructed and reduced to varying degrees.

But Xiao Minghuang before her was merely stripped of her clothes, her physical body remaining perfectly intact, as if this was her most essential and original state.

"Xiu'er? Xiu'er? Xiu'er..."

Xiao Minghuang looked at her in confusion and called her name several times in a row.

Xu Xiuer seemed to snap out of her daze and quickly replied, "Yes! Your Highness!"

What was wrong with you just now? You were spacing out the whole time.

"I..." Xu Xiuer blinked her beautiful eyes, the golden light radiating from her pupils receding completely, returning to her normal appearance.

"Your Highness, I may have actually benefited from this misfortune."

She took a deep breath, trying to make her tone calm.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Minghuang was taken aback. "What do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiuer raised her head, and her pair of bright, clear almond-shaped eyes suddenly shone with golden light, sparkling as if they could see through eternity and understand everything.

Being gazed upon by those dazzling eyes, Xiao Minghuang felt as if she had been seen through from head to toe, as if she were standing naked in front of her.

She was utterly shocked and incredulous!

"Xiu'er... what's wrong?"

As they spoke, Xiao Minghuang subconsciously tried to loosen his arm around Xu Xiuer's slender waist.

Xu Xiuer wrapped her arms around her, preventing Xiao Minghuang from breaking free. She leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Your Highness, don't be afraid. I've turned misfortune into blessing and awakened the supreme divine power recorded in the <Lesser Destiny True Scripture>: the Destiny Heavenly Eye."

"The Destiny Heavenly Eye?"

"That's right!" Xu Xiuer smiled and explained, "The Destiny Heavenly Eye can foresee the future and rewind to the past. If we compare my current level of mastery of the Destiny Dao, I'm afraid I'll only be able to rival me when I reach the Supreme Destiny Heavenly Eye."

"More importantly, this eye is like an external avatar. No matter who or what I am spying on, even if the other party discovers me, they can only trace it back to the Heavenly Eye, but cannot find me. Even if I suffer a backlash from the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Eye can bear the backlash on my behalf. Even if the Heavenly Eye is damaged by the backlash, it can recover quickly."

At this point, Xu Xiuer's face lit up with a bright smile, "So, even if I try to peek into the fate of immortals in the future, I won't have to worry about suffering a backlash!"

Hearing Xu Xiuer's explanation, Xiao Minghuang was deeply shocked. She had never imagined that the Destiny Heavenly Eye was so profound.

"Xiu'er, you're amazing!"

Xiao Minghuang shouted with joy, hugged Xu Xiuer tightly, and couldn't help but lower his head to kiss Xu Xiuer's luscious cherry lips fiercely.

Xu Xiuer trembled, then closed her eyes, letting her have whatever she wanted!

However, there are still many things to do, and the two of them have very little time left.

"Your Highness, I returned to the palace yesterday. My grandfather's health is deteriorating, and he wishes to see you. Is that alright?"

As Xu Xiuer gently helped Xiao Minghuang change her clothes, she said...

Xiao Minghuang naturally wouldn't refuse, and immediately said, "I'll go to the Wu'an King's Residence's residence right away, and also check on how the King Wu'an is doing."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Xu Xiuer said gratefully.

Xiao Minghuang smiled and said, "Xiu'er, don't be so polite. You are my Dao Companion. It's too formal to talk like that!"

"... Um!"

Xu Xiuer let out a soft moan, hooked her arm around Xiao Minghuang's collar, and planted a deep kiss on her fair neck.

After a tender moment, the two left the main hall.

At this moment, Xu Xiuer's eyes were bright, her complexion was rosy, and she looked radiant and healthy, showing no signs of having ever been blind.

"Congratulations, Sister Xiu'er, on regaining your sight!"

Upon seeing Xu Xiuer emerge, Sheng Bailan immediately greeted her with a broad smile, appearing very friendly.

Xu Xiuer smiled and said, "Thanks to Your Highness."

"Alright, let's go back to the Princess Mansion first and settle down for now. After I finish what I'm doing, I'll go to Spirit Sword Mountain and meet this so-called Daoist Siming!"

Xiao Minghuang said.

"Good!"

The women responded in unison.

Just now, when she was suppressing the restrictions within Wang Jin's body, she sensed an unfamiliar aura suddenly appear and then disappear in an instant.

Presumably, it was the Daoist Siming secretly spying on them.

Her return to Xia Kingdom has already been exposed to the other side's plans. If she continues to be cautious, she will only be handing the opportunity to the other side. She should act quickly to seize the initiative.

The group then returned to the Princess Mansion.

After this period of time, Su Miaomiao has finished her seclusion. Bored, Luo Qianhua is teaching her some basic supernatural abilities.

Upon seeing Xiao Minghuang and the others return, the two hurriedly came to greet them.

"Your Highness, I have broken through to the Spirit Seed Realm!"

Xiao Minghuang's gaze swept over and he discovered that Su Miaomiao had made another breakthrough in just one day. This cultivation speed was truly astonishing, much faster than before!

"Miaomiao is great. While you're working hard at your cultivation, remember to relax and balance work and rest. Otherwise, mental fatigue and drowsiness will be detrimental to your future cultivation."

Xiao Minghuang gently gave her instructions.

"Your Highness, I know," Su Miaomiao replied with a sweet smile and obedient manner.

"Miaomiao, His Highness and your sisters have something to discuss. How about you go practice your swordplay with Sister Luo?"

418. Destiny

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Luo Qianhua pulled Su Miaomiao away.

After they left, Xiao Minghuang withdrew her gaze and asked with some surprise, "When did Qianhua and Miaomiao become so close?"

"Perhaps Qianhua transferred her affection for her younger sister onto Miaomiao!"
