244: Chapter 244
Lei Luo stared fixedly at Ji Dakun, continuously applying pressure; if he didn't hand over Ji Rushuang, he would immediately report this matter to the Xuan Emperor.
Ji Dakun looked innocent: "What I said just now is true; many Disciples have seen His Majesty the Xuan Emperor take the Princess away."
Lei Luo also had a bit of a short temper, and seeing Ji Dakun constantly making excuses, he wouldn't give him any Face.
"Young Master Kun needs to recognize his own status. Princess Rushuang is His Majesty the Xuan Emperor's only sister and is of noble birth."
"I have long heard that Young Master Kun is fond of women and has secretly rounded up many beauties on Kunpeng Mountain."
"If you dare to harbor any crooked thoughts about the Princess, it will bring about your own destruction."
Ji Dakun smashed the huge stone pillar beside him into powder with one palm, his attitude extremely firm.
"If there is half a lie in my words, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death."
"If Revered Lei doesn't believe me, you can bring those Disciples over and interrogate them one by one."
"I have roamed the Immortal Realm for tens of thousands of years, always upright and never playing tricks; if I had really done it, I wouldn't be hiding it."
Ji Dakun looked sincere, and every word he said didn't seem like a lie, but Lei Luo still didn't believe him.
He also understood that many Sect Masters or Young Sect Masters of various Sects in the Immortal Realm wanted to obtain Ji Rushuang to climb up and establish a relationship with the Xuan Emperor.
Being close to the water gets the moonlight first; Ji Dakun had long coveted Ji Rushuang and naturally wouldn't miss this excellent opportunity.
Lei Luo judged in his heart that it was very likely that Ji Rushuang was being held under house arrest, and most likely, Ji Dakun had done something to her.
"If I don't see Your Highness the Princess today, I will not leave this place."
"When His Majesty the Xuan Emperor asks about it later, I will report truthfully. I hope Young Master Kun will behave himself."
Lei Luo's strong stance left Ji Dakun helpless; only by handing over Ji Rushuang could he calm this matter down.
In Ji Dakun's impression, Lei Luo had always had an upright and unyielding character, was straightforward, would not play any schemes or tricks, and only took orders from the Xuan Emperor.
He highly suspected that the Xuan Emperor he saw ten days ago was a fake. Relying on his Level 8 Emperor Realm Cultivation, even activating his Fiery Eyes could not distinguish the true from the false; it was indeed very strange.
"Strange? Who on earth did this?"
"Could the Snake Demon have followed into the Immortal Realm as well?"
Ji Dakun shook his head repeatedly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible! If the Snake Demon had entered the Immortal Realm, he would definitely have exposed his Demonic Qi."
"He is only at the Level 2 Emperor Realm; how could he transform freely in front of me?"
Subsequently, he arranged for Lei Luo and his group to the VIP reception room to settle them down first, then think of a way forward.
Ji Rushuang went missing on Kunpeng Mountain; if she couldn't be produced, the Xuan Emperor would surely be furious.
At that time, Ji Dakun would definitely be severely punished. The so-called father-son affection was as thin as paper; they were originally in a relationship based on interests.
Ji Dakun mobilized all his Disciples to go out and search, and actively contacted the Xuan Emperor's hostile forces. If the Xuan Emperor wanted to kill him because of Ji Rushuang's disappearance...
...he would have to strike first; Ji Dakun would absolutely not sit and wait for death.
At this moment, Xiao Bai was so tired that he was lying on the ground like a dead salted fish.
Ji Rushuang had recovered as before; the poison in her body had been completely removed, thanks to Xiao Bai's unremitting efforts.
"Hey, wake up! Why are you incapacitated again?"
Xiao Bai's voice was very weak; this time it had really exhausted him.
"Big sister, it's been ten whole days and nights, and I was the one doing all the hard work."
"Except for constantly moaning, you were basically just lying there. It was very difficult for me."
Ji Rushuang was somewhat incredulous: "How is that possible? Ten days passed in the blink of an eye."
"In my daze, I seemed to see A Kun wanting to harbor evil intentions toward me."
Xiao Bai recounted the whole process. Actually, there was nothing to hide; it was just to let Ji Rushuang clearly see Ji Dakun's true Face.
She must not be deceived by his gentle and elegant appearance; that sycophantic Face only appeared in front of Ji Rushuang.
"So that's how it is. No wonder after I drank the hot tea he brewed, my head started to feel dizzy, my whole body felt feverish, and my consciousness gradually blurred."
"This animal in human clothing dared to drug me. The Hot Springs incident was probably also a play he directed himself. It's a waste that I trusted him so much."
She slapped her head hard: "Oh no, the agreed time has long passed."
"I guess both sides are already fighting."
Ji Rushuang looked at Xiao Bai with a charming, wicked smile: "I didn't expect you to be so valiant, saving me again in this way."
"You must not let anyone else know about this. Let's just keep this kind of relationship, and don't even think about marrying me as your wife."
Xiao Bai slowly raised his hand: "Rest assured, if it weren't for saving you both times, I definitely wouldn't have gone on for so long."
"We are just friends with benefits."
Ji Rushuang asked in return: "What is a friend with benefits?"
"Uh... it's just a 'Guan-Bao' friendship." Xiao Bai gestured with a very greasy motion.
"Ew... so disgusting, so that's what it means."
Suddenly, Xiao Bai was filled with energy. He had absorbed a large amount of Spiritual Qi in the Hot Springs earlier and had gone through ten days and nights of battle.
Under the blessing of the Great Kun Power, many of his massive number of offspring had improved their Cultivation.
There were also many descendants from the first few batches who had long since become adults, married, and had children, which also gave Xiao Bai some rewards.
With these three aspects of blessing, Xiao Bai felt he was about to have a Breakthrough in his Cultivation.
"Why are you convulsing all over? You haven't been poisoned, have you?"
"Get further away, I'm about to lose control."
Bang! Xiao Bai suddenly transformed into a two-headed giant python, causing the surrounding rooms to collapse.
Ji Rushuang hid in a safe area, jumping up and down in anxiety.
"What should I do? Could my poison have been transmitted to him? Let's use the previous method to cool him down."
Huo Linger also snuck over to watch the excitement: "It's useless. That was you two having sex; it doesn't have much to do with this."
"The energy in his body is too great; he is about to have a Breakthrough in his Cultivation. Let's move further away, don't get caught in the aftermath of this energy."
Ji Rushuang witnessed with her own eyes Xiao Bai growing a third snake head; in his beast form, it was indeed quite terrifying.
His entire body was greatly strengthened, and his scales and muscles turned into indestructible diamonds, emitting a brilliant light.
Chapter 328: Princess Rushuang Chooses to Compromise
Ji Rushuang looked on, dumbfounded. Having lived for so long, this was the first time she had seen an Emperor Realm Expert have a Breakthrough in Cultivation.
"This is too perverted; he can actually grow an extra head just by leveling up."
Ji Rushuang counted on her fingers: "When he reaches the Level 9 Emperor Realm, wouldn't he have nine heads? It's simply terrifying."
Xiao Bai took a deep breath and then transformed into human form, no longer letting Ji Rushuang critique him.
"What's there to be surprised about? I was a Snake Demon to begin with."
Ji Rushuang shook her head hurriedly, feeling a bit resistant: "No, did I really battle with such a terrifying big guy for ten days and nights before?"
"I cannot accept this fact."
Huo Linger had just snuck out to gather information and found that the entire Kunpeng Mountain was in chaos.
They were searching for Ji Rushuang's whereabouts all over the mountains and plains. According to the outer guards, they had not seen the Xuan Emperor leave.
"Dumpling Skin, your brother has sent an honor guard. Hurry up and leave; I've really had enough of these ten days."
"Having sex on my turf is one thing, but you even collapsed several of my houses."
Ji Rushuang asked curiously: "Who is leading the team? Is it Lei Luo?"
"Seems to be someone called Revered Lei; I guess it's him."
"It's actually Revered Lei who came; A Kun definitely won't be able to stir up any trouble. After I go back, I must tell my brother that he tried to drug and rape me."
Just as she left the room, she regretted it. Ji Dakun's strength was getting stronger and stronger; if she completely broke with him over this matter...
...the Xuan Emperor's many hostile enemies would definitely unite to deal with him. As the top Sect in the Immortal Realm, the Xuantian Sect would find it hard to resist the combined assault of other Sects if it lost the power of Kunpeng Mountain.
Ji Rushuang was indeed quite crazy when she was with Xiao Bai, but she was a completely different person when she was outside.
Ultimately, out of consideration for interests, Ji Rushuang could only pretend that nothing had happened.
"Are you two coming with me to the Xuantian Sect to hang out? With me covering for you, even if you are discovered later, they won't dare to do anything to you."
Xiao Bai looked at Huo Linger. At this moment, they had great tacit understanding and said in unison: "No, we are going home."
With Xiao Bai's current strength, how could he dare to go to the Xuantian Sect to seek death? He definitely wanted to return to the Lower Realm to be free and happy; why subject himself to others?
"Fine, you two unloyal guys. It seems I can only wait to guard the cold palace alone."
"I will personally escort you back to the Lower Realm, otherwise you will never be able to leave here."
Ji Rushuang decisively crawled out of the lotus platform. She slowly opened the door and shouted to those searching outside: "This Princess is right here; what are you blindly searching for?"
"Greetings, Your Highness the Princess."
The Kunpeng Mountain Disciples flew over excitedly, and they immediately reported this good news to Ji Dakun.
In less than two minutes, Lei Luo and Ji Dakun arrived in a hurry.
Lei Luo was in tears, plopping down to his knees: "This subordinate is late, causing Your Highness the Princess to suffer."
"Fortunately, the Princess is safe and sound; otherwise, this subordinate's death would not be enough to atone for the crime."
"After returning, this subordinate will definitely report Ji Dakun's crimes to the Xuan Emperor one by one. I will make him pay a hundredfold for the humiliation Your Highness the Princess has suffered."
Ji Dakun clenched his fists, his eyes glowing red, ready to strike and kill Lei Luo at any moment, and then control Ji Rushuang as a hostage; he was determined to make up for his previous regrets.
Lei Luo felt that something was wrong with Ji Dakun; if they really fought, he would be no match at all.
Ji Rushuang laughed: "Revered Lei, you have misunderstood. This Princess has been living very happily here every day. A Kun has always been law-abiding, and the hospitality has been very attentive."
"You must not be deceived by treacherous people and misunderstand A Kun."
