Throwing Herself into His Arms? A Boundless Future

This sudden turn of events caught Chen Changqing completely off guard.

Wang Junmo and his maid Yueru, who were standing nearby, were also shocked by the scene before them.

"Your Empress, I... shall take my leave now!"

After a brief pause, Wang Junmo quickly bowed and hurriedly left.

Seeing this, Yueru Ru pursed her lips, as if she wanted to warn Chen Changqing about something.

But after thinking about it again, she dismissed the idea and said:

"My Imperial Son-in-law, I... I'm waiting for you on the flying boat."

After saying this, Yueru also left.

Hearing what the two were saying, Liu Ruyan, who was throwing herself into Chen Changqing's arms, didn't care at all and continued to hug Chen Changqing tightly.

She knew that Chen Changqing had already been appointed as the imperial son-in-law of the Divine Dynasty.

But her mother, Liu Ye, once said that if you meet someone you like, you have to take the initiative.

Chen Changqing stood there, stunned, able to clearly smell the faint fragrance and softness emanating from Liu Ruyan.

After a brief silence, Chen Changqing coughed lightly twice, looking slightly embarrassed, and said:

"Senior Sister Ruyan."

Is that okay?

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan shyly pulled away from Chen Changqing's embrace.

You must understand, she is now the Empress of the Maple Leaf Dynasty.

They usually present a dignified and solemn image to others.

But in front of Chen Changqing, she became so timid and dependent.

After calming down slightly, Liu Ruyan raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Chen Changqing curiously, saying:

"Junior brother, you... how did you end up at the Maple Leaf Dynasty?"

"Did they come with the Divine Dynasty's flying ship?"

Chen Changqing smiled faintly, made no attempt to hide anything, and replied:

"Senior sister, I was originally preparing for the upcoming Seven Peaks Grand Competition at Mount Shu."

"The Divine Dynasty has sent someone to say that the Third Princess has invited me to visit the Divine Dynasty."

"So, I came."

"Since I was passing by the Maple Leaf Dynasty, I naturally had to come and see you, Senior Sister."

After Chen Changqing explained, Liu Ruyan nodded in understanding, then her eyes flashed as she asked:

"Could it be that my junior brother and the Third Princess are getting married soon?"

At this point, Liu Ruyan paused slightly, and without waiting for Chen Changqing's reply, continued:

"That's not right!"

"If it were truly a grand wedding, the Divine Dynasty would have sent out invitations long ago, and Various Great Dynasties should have been informed in advance."

"So, it's because the Third Princess has something personal to discuss with you, Junior Brother."

"Could it be... that she's missing you, her fiancé?"

As she spoke, Liu Ruyan looked directly at Chen Changqing.

Seeing that Liu Ruyan spoke these words so casually, a hint of surprise flashed across Chen Changqing's eyes.

He originally thought that his affair with Xuanyuan Xiaoyu would make Liu Ruyan extremely jealous.

But now it seems his worries were unnecessary.

Chen Changqing felt that Liu Ruyan didn't care about his status as the son-in-law of the Divine Dynasty at all.

"Senior sister."

"Are you really not bothered at all by my affair with the Third Princess?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Changqing suddenly asked this question.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan smiled slightly and replied:

"What's there to mind?"

"As long as you have a place for me in your heart, that's enough."

"Besides, with your outstanding qualities, it's inevitable that you'll be liked by more women."

Chen Changqing smiled and didn't say anything more.

Then, he discovered that Liu Ruyan's cultivation had already broken through to the Spirit Transformation stage, and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration:

"Senior sister."

"It's been a while since I last saw you, and your cultivation has already reached the Spirit Transformation Realm."

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan smiled gently and said:

"Junior brother, isn't this all thanks to you?"

"If you hadn't helped me win first place in the Hundred Dynasties War, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to be baptized in the Divine Dynasty."

As she spoke, Liu Ruyan's gaze sharpened, and she looked at Chen Changqing again.

Just now, her mind was completely focused on the joy of seeing Chen Changqing, and she didn't notice the change in Chen Changqing.

After a brief inspection, Liu Ruyan was immediately shocked and exclaimed in disbelief:

"Junior brother, you... you 'Late Spirit Transformation?"

Liu Ruyan gasped in surprise, her expression filled with overwhelming shock.

It should be noted that when Chen Changqing helped him participate in the Hundred Dynasties War, his cultivation level was only at the Purple Mansion Purple Mansion.

How long has it been? Chen Changqing has already reached the Late Spirit Transformation.

Originally, Liu Ruyan thought that with the baptism of the Divine Dynasty and the inheritance of the Maple Leaf Dynasty's Empress Inheritance, her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the Spirit Transformation Realm, and she should be able to surpass Chen Changqing.

But upon meeting, they discovered...

Chen Changqing's cultivation level was significantly higher than hers.

"It was just a lucky breakthrough!"

Chen Changqing said calmly.

"Call!"

Upon hearing Chen Changqing's reply, Liu Ruyan took a deep breath and said with a shocked expression:

"Junior brother, you are truly a prodigy!"

"Such a rapid cultivation speed, I'm afraid no one in the entire Nine Provinces Continent can match it, right?"

While saying this, Liu Ruyan was deeply shaken and admired Chen Changqing even more.

Chen Changqing merely smiled faintly at Liu Ruyan's praise, not taking it too seriously.

Then, the two reminisced in the backyard of the palace.

As they chatted, Liu Ruyan and Chen Changqing grew closer and closer.

In the end, she actually leaned into Chen Changqing's arms again.

As the warm, soft body entered his arms, Chen Changqing was both amused and exasperated.

Thinking back on the time I haven't seen Liu Ruyan, she seems to have become much more proactive than before.

After a moment of tenderness, Liu Ruyan suddenly remembered something and quickly pulled Chen Changqing to his feet.

"Junior brother, I'll take you to see Mother!"

Chen Changqing nodded, and then, led by Liu Ruyan, went to see Liu Ye.

"Greetings, Empress!"

Chen Changqing bowed deeply to Liu Ye.

Liu Ye smiled slightly and replied:

"Changqing, I am no longer the Empress. The entire Maple Leaf Dynasty is now under the management of Ruyan!"

"From this day forward, she is the Empress of the Maple Leaf Dynasty."

If you don't mind, you can call me Aunt Liu.

Chen Changqing nodded and gave a soft "hmm":

"Okay, Aunt Liu!"

Previously, Chen Changqing had learned from Liu Ye that Liu Ye had also been a disciple of Mount Shu, and that she and his master Chen Yuan were fellow disciples.

After Liu Ye returned to the Maple Leaf Dynasty, their contact decreased.

Next, Chen Changqing chatted with Liu Ye for a while.

Seeing that it was about time, he bid farewell to the mother and daughter and got up to leave.

"Junior brother, remember to come back and visit often!"

Watching Chen Changqing leave, Liu Ruyan said with eyes full of reluctance.

Chen Changqing turned to look at Liu Ruyan, nodded slightly, and said:

"I will!"

Then, with a flick of his wrist, he transformed into a streak of light and sped towards the Divine Dynasty Flying Ship above the Imperial Dynasty.

Liu Ruyan stared intently, unwilling to look away for a long time.

Seeing this, Liu Ye smiled faintly and said:

"Ruyan, you'd better hold onto this kid!"

"This child's future is undoubtedly limitless."

"Whether it's for your own sake or for the sake of my Maple Leaf Dynasty!"

As she spoke, Liu Ye's face became very serious.
