Chapter 98

He was the only one invited to the banquet, so Feng Yi stayed at the hotel the whole time.

Back at the inn.

The Sixth Prince pushed open the door and entered.

Feng Yi noticed the commotion, stopped cultivating, and immediately asked:

"Senior Brother Xiao, how did things go? Did you defeat Princess Ziwei?"

The Sixth Prince shook his head.

Upon seeing this, Feng Yi's pupils suddenly dilated.

What's going on?

A hint of impatience flashed in Xiao Jian's eyes, and he waved his hand, saying:

"A loss is a loss, what's there to ask?"

Feng Yi noticed Xiao Jian's displeasure. He frowned slightly. He had been so polite to Xiao Jian all along the way because he thought Xiao Jian could defeat Princess Ziwei. Otherwise, why would he, a true disciple, need to be so subservient to a mere inner disciple?

If Xiao Jian, he would have had nothing to say, but since Xiao Jian had lost, he was no longer qualified to become a disciple of the Sect Master, let alone have any chance of inheriting the position of Sect Master in the future.

What right does Xiao Jian have to act arrogantly in front of him?

"Xiao Jian, your master had high hopes for you, ordering you to bring Princess Ziwei into the sect, but you lost to her. You have failed your master's expectations. How can you face him again?!"

Xiao Jian raised his voice and questioned him.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jian stopped what he was doing, turned around, and said calmly:

"I was wondering how to tell you this, but since you asked, I'll just tell you now."

"I will not return to the sect. From now on, I will stay in Great Xia and follow Princess Ziwei."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yi was stunned. He really hadn't expected Xiao Jian to make such a choice, and for a moment, he was speechless.

"Xiao Jian, have you gone mad?! You are an inner disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, how can you abandon the Spirit Sword Sect for the sake of a princess from a mere small country?"

Xiao Jian remained remarkably calm and said:

"Although the Spirit Sword Sect is large, no one there is a match for the princess. Even the eldest disciple, if he were to fight someone of the same cultivation level, wouldn't be able to withstand a single move from her."

He paused for a moment, then said:

"I will write a letter explaining what happened. You take the letter back to the sect and give it to Elder Xuanjian."

He took out a storage bag and pushed it in front of Feng Yi.

"Here are a thousand spirit stones; consider it your reward for running the errand!"

Upon seeing the storage bag in front of him, Feng Yi flew into a rage, slammed his hand on the table, and stood up.

"Xiao Jian! You're utterly unreasonable! You're a madman!"

Xiao Jian remained calm and said indifferently:

"If you are unwilling, I will find someone else to deliver it on your behalf."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yi clenched his fist, exhaled deeply, put away the storage bag, glanced coldly at Xiao Jian, and uttered a few words:

"Xiao Jian, you'll regret this!"

Xiao Jian remained unfazed; once he made a decision, he would never change it, not even in death.

"Thank you for your trouble!"

This time, he didn't even address him as "junior brother."

Under the moonlight, a figure in white left the city and headed straight for the Spirit Sword Sect.

Princess Mansion.

As Xiao Minghuang led Xu Xiuer through the gates of the mansion, they spotted a figure in a light red dress sitting under a pavilion not far away. Her slender and graceful figure resembled a fairy under the moon.

"Your Highness, you're back... And who is this?"

Lin Wanqiu turned around, about to greet her, when she looked up and saw a beautiful young girl in a green dress standing next to Xiao Minghuang.

She frowned, realizing that this matter was not simple.

Xiao Minghuang was racking her brains about how to settle Xu Xiuer when she saw Lin Wanqiu, and immediately went to greet her as if she had seen a savior.

She took Lin Wanqiu's hand and quickened her pace, leading her away from Xu Xiuer's gaze.

Seeing Xiao Minghuang's actions, Lin Wanqiu became even more confused.

What is Your Highness doing?

The two stopped in a long pavilion.

Xiao Minghuang frowned slightly, sighed softly, and briefly recounted what had happened that evening.

"... She is the only granddaughter of the King Wu'an, named Xu Xiuer. Wanqiu, what do you think should be done with her?"

After listening to Xiao Minghuang's story, Lin Wanqiu understood that His Highness did not have any special feelings for that girl.

There was even a hint of disdain?

Lin Wanqiu felt relieved, patted her soft chest, and smiled:

"Your Highness, rest assured, I will take care of her. I will ensure she is not mistreated!"

Xiao Minghuang smiled:

I trust you to handle things.

After saying this, she took out a cup of Spirit Wine from her sleeve and pushed it in front of Lin Wanqiu.

"This cup of Spirit Wine is for Wanqiu."

Upon seeing the Spirit Wine in front of her, Lin Wanqiu was taken aback. With her keen eyesight, she could naturally tell that this cup of Spirit Wine was quite extraordinary.

"This is..."

Xiao Minghuang explained:

"This wine is called Daughter's Brew, and it has certain benefits for improving cultivation."

Lin Wanqiu had never heard of Daughter's Brew before, and assumed it was just ordinary Spirit Wine. She thanked him and accepted it.

At the same time.

The system's voice rang in Xiao Minghuang's mind.

[Bite!]

[Successfully detected that the host has gifted the opportunity!]

[Congratulations, host! You have triggered a 10x critical hit compensation and received 10 Daughter's Brew!]

Xiao Minghuang's lips curled slightly, and a hint of a smile appeared in her eyes.

Ten times, not a lot, but not a small amount either.

After accepting the Spirit Wine, Lin Wanqiu blushed slightly, looked at Xiao Minghuang shyly, and said softly:

"Your Highness, it's getting late, let's rest!"

120. Dual cultivation again, reaching the peak of the Spring Gushing Third Layer!

Bathed in moonlight, Lin Wanqiu's beautiful face appeared even more charming and alluring. Her skin was as white as snow, her eyes as clear as water, and her lips as red as rosy petals, like a blooming rose that one couldn't resist picking.

"OK!"

Xiao Minghuang answered decisively, without the slightest hesitation.

After establishing a relationship with Lin Wanqiu, she began to treat this girl as her wife.

There's naturally no problem sharing a bed with one's wife.

Lin Wanqiu's face instantly turned bright red. She glared at Xiao Minghuang playfully, then lowered her head and whispered:

"Your Highness! Aren't you ashamed?"

Xiao Minghuang smiled warmly, put her arm around Lin Wanqiu's slender waist, and said softly:

"Wanqiu, we are a married couple, you don't need to be so reserved."

"Um..."

Lin Wanqiu responded in a barely audible voice.

Although they had officially established a relationship, doing this kind of thing always felt awkward and difficult to talk about.

Especially on nights like this, when the darkness is dim and the lights are low.

"Come on! Let's go inside!"

Xiao Minghuang took Lin Wanqiu's hand and walked into the house.

On the way, she vaguely felt that something had been forgotten.

But...

"Since he can't remember it, it's probably nothing important... let's not worry about it!"

A short while later.

Lin Wanqiu followed Xiao Minghuang into the house. After Xiao Minghuang closed the door, he picked Lin Wanqiu up and placed her on the bed.

Lin Wanqiu's face was flushed like a rosy cloud, her eyes were closed, and her eyelashes, like butterfly wings, trembled slightly.

Xiao Minghuang stared intently at Lin Wanqiu's face, and for a moment, she was in a daze, feeling that Lin Wanqiu was even more beautiful than before.

There were no unnecessary movements.

Xiao Minghuang leaned down and kissed Lin Wanqiu's cherry-like lips.

Lin Wanqiu's lips were warm and soft, making Xiao Minghuang intoxicated for a moment. After just one kiss, Xiao Minghuang did not want to stop.

Lin Wanqiu's body trembled slightly, her hands clenched tightly; she too was somewhat moved.

Two soft bodies pressed tightly together, intertwined, as if slowly melting, gradually becoming hot, like a raging fire.

Xiao Minghuang could feel that Lin Wanqiu's skin was soft, delicate, and elastic. Touching it felt very comfortable, like a baby's delicate skin, making her want more.

Lin Wanqiu let out a soft moan, her body trembled, and she opened her eyes, looking at Xiao Minghuang who was so close to her, a shy blush on her face.

"Your Highness..."

Gazing into those misty, watery eyes, Xiao Minghuang lowered his head and kissed them.

After strenuous exercise.

Lin Wanqiu fell into a deep sleep, her breathing even and peaceful.

Xiao Minghuang got up, walked to the table and poured a glass of water. Suddenly she remembered that she still had ten cups of Spirit Wine left to drink.

So she took out a cup of Spirit Wine and drank it.

A cool sensation flowed from her throat into her abdomen.

It was an extremely exhilarating feeling, and I could faintly sense the spiritual energy within my body rising, as if there were signs of a breakthrough.

Xiao Minghuang was surprised.

The Spirit Wine Daughter's Brew is incredibly potent.

She didn't linger and finished off the remaining ten cups of her Daughter's Brew in one gulp.

As the cool Spirit Wine entered her stomach, Xiao Minghuang felt a flame burning within her body. Her robes gradually turned crimson, and a scorching heat emanated from her skin, making her feel extremely hot.

This is...

What happened?

Xiao Minghuang frowned. Could there be poison in these Spirit Wine?
