So long, so beautiful, so informative!
Xia Family.
Bedroom... Hearing the sound, Xia Qingyan snapped back to reality, her gaze complex.
She felt... that she and Su Bai seemed to have fallen into a certain trap.
She just didn't know who the trap-setter was.
Nor did she know That One's purpose.
Sigh!
It was truly too irritating!
She sighed softly and said in a low voice:
"Su Bai, what you're saying is too incredible. If it really was the previous Ruler of Destiny awakening and forcefully pulling you into an unknown space, then what was That One's purpose? Was it really just to tell you these things? Or did That One also have designs on you?"
Su Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head, slowly saying:
"To be honest, I'm not really clear about That One's true purpose either."
"That One just told me that my destiny might have been interfered with by some power, and might even have been rewritten. Then That One suggested a destiny reading..."
Upon hearing this, Xia Qingyan's brows furrowed even tighter.
Her intuition told her—this matter was definitely not that simple!
This so-called previous Ruler of Destiny,
had a high probability of not being a good thing!
Otherwise, how could That One be willing to risk a backlash,
just to help Su Bai read his destiny?!
It made no sense at all!!
Seeing her frown, Su Bai leaned forward and pulled her into his embrace.
He said in a very gentle tone:
"Alright, alright! Yan Yan, don't think about it anymore..."
"Look! Don't I look perfectly fine?!"
"Don't be afraid! Your husband, I, am very strong!!! ୧ ⍢ ⃝ ୨"
After speaking, he even made a gesture, flexing his muscles.
"Pfft!" Seeing this, Xia Qingyan broke into a smile.
Teased by Su Bai, her mood was obviously much better.
Suddenly, Su Bai clapped his head and spoke again:
"Oh, right! Another thing is, after that purple light shot into my glabella, the System I was bound to... upgraded!!!"
As soon as these words came out, Xia Qingyan immediately looked up, utterly shocked:
"Upgrade?! System upgrade?!"
"It actually... it was actually... a System upgrade???!!!"
"What you said... is it true?"
"Then... then are you invincible now...?"
"Su Bai, can you instantly kill a Great Emperor now?"
"Quick, tell me, quick!!!"
Looking at Xia Qingyan's expectant eyes, Su Bai rubbed the bridge of his nose:
"Ah, this... the System hasn't finished upgrading yet!"
"It keeps showing 'System is upgrading'..."
"I don't know how much longer it will take..."
Upon hearing this, Xia Qingyan suddenly felt a little disappointed:
"Oh... so that's how it is... Well, alright..."
"This is still a good thing..."
Just then, Su Bai's phone rang again:
"~ Ding-dong—!"
There was no need to guess; it was definitely—
Shen Xingyao!
Su Bai took out his phone and saw that it was indeed Shen Xingyao's reply:
【yao yao loves eating candy: You stinky brat! You finally replied! You scared me to death! I thought something happened to you! It's good that you're fine. Coming back this afternoon? When? Sister will treat you to a meal?!】
After reading the message, Su Bai looked up at Xia Qingyan and said:
"Yan Yan... the Emperor Enfeoffment Ceremony is imminent, how about..."
"We go back to Jiangcheng? I want to go back..."
"To see Grandpa Director from the orphanage where I grew up."
"I want to go back and invite him to attend my Emperor Enfeoffment Ceremony!"
"Hmm! And also, to go back and see... Sister Yao Yao!"
Hearing Su Bai's words, a hint of tenderness flashed in Xia Qingyan's eyes.
Grandpa Director... Of course she knew him!
She had even met him when she was little!
That old man was one of the few warm memories in Su Bai's life.
He was a very kind and amiable elder.
When she was little, he even gave her candied hawthorn to eat!
She remembered it very clearly!
That string of candied hawthorn was truly very, very sweet!
It was something new she had never eaten in the Xia Family of Modu!
So she nodded gently and said in a soft tone:
"Okay, then I'll go with you! We'll go back together, see Grandpa Director, and also let him witness your moment of glory!"
"And... I also have a little..."
Halfway through her sentence, she stopped.
Seeing Xia Qingyan agree, a wave of warmth surged in Su Bai's heart.
His Yan Yan was always so understanding.
Gentle and virtuous, very suitable to be a wife.
His judgment... was indeed excellent!
୧ ⍢ ⃝ ୨
Then he took Xia Qingyan's hand, and the two of them walked out of the bedroom together. After arriving in the living room, he simply informed Ye Lingshuang about the matter.
Ye Lingshuang, seeing that Su Bai had recovered, smiled and nodded in agreement... Xia Family.
Villa entrance.
After bidding farewell to Ye Lingshuang, Su Bai and the other person arrived at the villa entrance.
"Yan Yan, let's go," Su Bai said softly.
After speaking, he skillfully took Xia Qingyan's hand.
Then, with a slight thought, he activated the "Holy Sense" unique to an eighth-rank expert. With a single thought, the two figures instantly disappeared from their original spot.
In an instant, they crossed thousands of kilometers and arrived directly at—
Under the hotel building of the 【Jiang City Education Bureau】!
...Jiang City.
Municipal Education Bureau.
Looking at the building in front of him, Su Bai was filled with emotion.
He was back again!
It had only been a little over ten days.
But returning now felt like a century had passed.
When he left... he was only at the second or third rank... it was even difficult to kill a fifth-rank Demon Wolf King!
But now, his Realm—was as high as eighth-rank!
Moreover, he was about to be enfeoffed as the new Human Race Great Emperor!
Su Bai slowly closed his eyes and activated "Holy Sense" again.
As "Holy Sense" surged, Su Bai's consciousness instantly spread out.
Soon, it covered the entire Jiang City.
At this moment, his perception was like an invisible tentacle, penetrating layers of space, capturing every subtle fluctuation of the city.
At this moment, he was like a god—omniscient!
The situation of the entire Jiang City was almost entirely in his mind!
Forming a very clear 3D holographic projection.
Extremely terrifying!
For him, the entire Jiang City held almost no secrets!
And this was also one of the reasons why the authorities prohibited the use of extraordinary abilities among the populace, otherwise, ordinary people would have no privacy at all!
But—
He was an exception!
Even if he was discovered, he would be released very quickly~
After all,
the words 'new Human Race Great Emperor' were no joke!
As he looked, Su Bai's face suddenly turned red.
Because—
Through "Holy Sense," he saw a heart-pounding scene—Shen Xingyao was lying on a soft, large bed, wearing a light green, thin nightgown, her long hair cascading like a waterfall over her shoulders.
At this moment, she was also holding a green-covered book titled—
【The Storybook of Little Fish Bubble's Family】.
Originally,
just wearing a nightgown!
There was nothing to it.
But... Su Bai discovered—
Shen Xingyao was only wearing a nightgown... nothing else.
Truly... nothing else.
Not even...!!
Suddenly, in Su Bai's perception,
Shen Xingyao lifted her right leg and placed it over her left leg.
Upon discovering this, Su Bai's consciousness paused slightly.
His face subtly flushed.
A moment later, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration:
"Tsk tsk! So fair..."
"So long! She's truly beautiful!"
"Tsk, she's really well-endowed..."
"I never thought... I never thought!"
"She was also this beautiful?!"
Beside him, hearing his words, Xia Qingyan felt very puzzled:
"Su Bai, what are you talking about? What's long and beautiful?!"
"We're already downstairs, how about... we make a call to ask?"
"See if Sister Yao Yao is at the Education Bureau?"
"Otherwise, we'll have come all this way for nothing!"
Without thinking, Su Bai immediately replied:
"No need, she's not at the Education... Bureau."
"She's currently... at... at..."
As he spoke, he realized he had let something slip.
So he cleared his throat, trying to cover it up:
"Cough! You're right! My Yan Yan always has foresight~"
"Then I'll make a call to ask where she is now."
Then,
Su Bai took out his phone and quickly dialed Shen Xingyao's number.
Soon, Shen Xingyao's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone.
Her tone also carried a hint of teasing:
"Oh, you stinky brat, you finally deigned to call me? I thought you'd forgotten about me. What's up? Are you... back in Jiangcheng?"
Su Bai cleared his throat and said:
"Hmm, Yan Yan and I just arrived. Sister Yao Yao, where are you?!"
On the other end of the phone, Shen Xingyao chuckled, clearly very happy:
"Me? Of course I'm at my own home!"
"I'll send you the address on WeChat in a bit."
"Wait for it! Hanging up!"
After speaking, Shen Xingyao proactively hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Su Bai turned to look at Xia Qingyan:
"Yan Yan, Sister Yao Yao is at home, let's go over quickly!"
At the same time,
"~ Ding-dong!"
A WeChat message notification popped up.
Su Bai pretended to open it:
【yao yao loves eating candy: Location share — (Click to view)】
【yao yao loves eating candy: Are you coming by yourselves? Or...】
Smiling, Su Bai immediately replied.
【White Pigeon: We're coming by ourselves! Sister Yao Yao, wait!】
Then he put his phone in his pocket and took Xia Qingyan's hand.
"Holy Sense" moved again, and the two immediately disappeared from their original spot... Jiang City.
City center.
Shen Garden Residential Area.
"Swish—"
The scene shifted,
Su Bai and the other person arrived at the entrance of Shen Garden Residential Area according to the location.
—This was the villa area where Shen Xingyao lived!
Just as they were about to enter, the security guard at the entrance stopped them.
It turned out—
This was a high-end villa area, and the residents were either rich or powerful.
For their safety, security was extremely strict.
Generally, an appointment needed to be made an hour in advance to enter and exit freely.
Otherwise... no entry was allowed!
Su Bai was a bit speechless and decided to call Shen Xingyao.
However, just as he was about to call to inform Shen Xingyao,
"~ Ding-a-ling!"
"~ Ding-a-ling!"
"~ Ding-a-ling!"
The security guard's phone rang first.
Seeing this, Su Bai smiled knowingly and put his phone away.
He guessed—
It was probably Shen Xingyao who anticipated that the two of them would arrive soon.
So she called to inform this security guard.
As expected!
After hanging up the phone, the security guard at the gate changed his attitude:
"Sir, Young Miss, Young Miss Shen invites you in!"
Su Bai nodded and, holding Xia Qingyan's hand, strode inside.
Before long, they arrived in front of a villa...
