317: Ning Yuewan's attitude

"Don't worry, Immortal Sister, the energy I give you will be very pure; you won't need to filter it further..."

"Chen Xuan, you bastard!"

Time passed quickly; in a blink of an eye, five days had already gone by in the outside world. During this period, Chen Xuan went out daily to hand over Peach Blossoms, then returned to his Small World to Cultivate.

He and Bi Xiao, meanwhile, had been gathering energy for over 50 days in the time acceleration zone!

But even so, Bi Xiao's cultivation only remained at the Late Stage of Soul Transformation, still lacking some energy to reach Void Refining.

"No, I can't go on, my dear wife. All my energy has truly been used up, and it's been so long. If this continues, it might affect the child..." Chen Xuan had just stepped into the cultivation room and immediately softened his stance towards Bi Xiao.

At this moment, he had two large dark circles under his eyes, his face was gaunt, and he clearly looked overly exhausted.

In contrast, Bi Xiao was fair and tender, radiant, and her skin was as delicate as a newborn's, seemingly soft enough to squeeze water from.

Bi Xiao smiled slightly upon hearing this.

Actually, after absorbing energy so frantically for so long, her body was also a bit overwhelmed. She was just about to discuss this with Chen Xuan when he spoke first.

"Oh, my good husband, your humble wife, your humble wife will definitely Cultivate diligently. You, please pity your humble wife and let your humble wife make a Breakthrough!"

"Let me go! I'm a boiled dumpling!"

Bi Xiao: "???????"

"What's wrong, husband? Why do you always say such strange things? Your humble wife doesn't understand what you're saying!"

"It's nothing, Xiao'er, be good. For the sake of the child, let's wait a bit longer! Ouch, ouch, ouch, Xiao'er, stop it, my ear is going to fall off!"

"Didn't I tell you not to call me Xiao'er? All three of us sisters have the character 'Xiao' in our names!"

"Yes, yes, yes, my dear wife is right. I hope my dear wife will be merciful!" Chen Xuan picked up Bi Xiao.

Only then did Bi Xiao let go.

She knew exactly what a scoundrel Chen Xuan was. If her sisters came, he would definitely have improper thoughts! She, Bi Xiao, and Chen Xuan were together by a twist of fate, so if she fell for him, she fell. But her sisters absolutely could not!

"But, husband, your cultivation is still Sealed. If I don't Cultivate quickly, won't your cultivation always be suppressed?" Bi Xiao wrapped her arms around Chen Xuan's neck, breathing softly.

"Cough, cough, I think accumulating is also very good. A solid Foundation is never wrong, isn't it?"

"Hmph, at least you're sensible! Then I'll let you off!"

"By the way, there's still something I don't understand about our child."

"Go on."

"I think, no matter what, my dear wife, you are a Daluo cultivator. How could our child not be like Nezha, staying in your belly for three to five years!"

"But why is your belly already showing signs after only 50 days?"

Bi Xiao rolled her eyes at Chen Xuan charmingly.

"Nezha was the Reincarnation of Saint Nuwa's Spirit Pearl; his Foundation was extraordinary, so it was natural for Lady Li to carry him for a longer time!"

"And... your humble wife is not Daluo now, only at the Soul Transformation stage!"

"I see, my dear wife truly knows more!" Chen Xuan picked up Bi Xiao and kissed her hard.

"Go, go, go, are you trying to lean on the wall again? If there's nothing else, you can go out. Don't worry, your humble wife will Breakthrough to Void Refining as soon as possible. At that time, I will naturally unSeal your Seal!"

As Bi Xiao spoke, she passed a stream of Spiritual Qi to Chen Xuan. Instantly, Chen Xuan recovered as before. His little trick couldn't fool her.

That gaunt face was clearly put on by Chen Xuan. He had Lin Rou, the Mother of Life, so how could he lack such a small amount of energy? The truth was simply... she was too powerful! With just her Soul Transformation strength, she made Chen Xuan lean on the wall as he left!

Thinking of this, Bi Xiao proudly raised her chin.

"Alright, then that's it for now. This humble one bids farewell to Empress Bi Xiao." Chen Xuan said and slipped away.

"......"

After bidding farewell to Bi Xiao, Chen Xuan returned to the outside world.

These days, all the women in the Small World had been given seeds by Chen Xuan. They were either in seclusion or had gone to play in the bustling Mortal kingdoms of the Lower Realm.

"Hmm... today is another day to visit the Empress's bedchamber. First, I'll check Ning Yuewan's attitude... As for Dai Dabai, it's time to reel him in too."

Chen Xuan murmured to himself and then set off for the Royal harem.

"Empress, these are your Life Peach Blossoms and Qi Luck Peach Blossom for today. Please accept them."

"Mm." Ning Yuewan's expression remained unchanged as she softly hummed.

But whether her heart was truly as calm as her surface suggested, only she knew.

"Heart racing? Why is my heart racing?"

'It's only been a few days, how could I have become like this!? Ning Yuewan, wake up!' Ning Yuewan roared inwardly, but then she remembered the last time she tried to teach Chen Xuan a lesson, only to be taken advantage of.

This time, Chen Xuan... wouldn't he continue to bully her?

Ning Yuewan's heart raced even faster now.

"If the Empress has no further instructions, I shall take my leave."

"Mm... Wait!"

"Does the Empress have any other matters?"

"I... you, don't you have anything to say to me?"

"There doesn't seem to be anything to say. Does the Empress have any commands?"

Ning Yuewan's face flushed slightly.

'It's over. Why does my heart start racing uncontrollably whenever Chen Xuan talks to me? I must be sick...'

"Empress?" Chen Xuan moved closer, waving his hand in front of Ning Yuewan.

Ning Yuewan jumped, retreating a few steps.

Chen Xuan: "......"

Ning Yuewan reacted quickly and spoke:

"It's, it's about Dabai."

"Are you talking about Old Dai? He..."

"I know he's been a bit arrogant these past few days, and what he said to you earlier was a bit much. But don't worry, I've already specifically taught him a lesson. In the future, he naturally won't dare to act like that!"

"So the Empress was talking about this." Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow.

This woman was actually siding with him! Could there be some hidden story here?

"System, is this woman sick? Quickly scan her for me!"

"Ding, this System can only provide information about people of Luck and the host. Information about others... that's a different price!"

"Alright, alright, you're ruthless! Tell me, how many points?"

"Not too much, not too little, a small 500,000."

"How much?"

"500,000 Heaven's Mandate Value."

"No, are you robbing me? That's 500,000 Heaven's Mandate Value! I've worked so hard for so long, and I've only seen one Tang Sirui with 1,000,000 Luck points. Yet, for others' most basic information check, it's 500,000 for you?"

"Ding, this System's information check can understand the queried person's status and current thoughts. The host can even use this to know some plot details in advance, which is why it's this price. Fair dealing, no deception."

"......"

"Forget it, I'll just test this woman's favorability towards me myself! As for that 500,000... I'll deal with it after I've dealt with Tang Sirui!"

"Chen Xuan, you, why aren't you speaking? Do you think I can't control Dai Dabai? Were you just comforting me?" Ning Yuewan's tone was very anxious.

Had Chen Xuan, after all, become distant towards her because of Dai Dabai's actions?

"That's not it."

"Then why are you..."

"I just feel a bit strange, Empress. Do you think I can still leave this White Tiger Empire?" Chen Xuan's gaze was burning as he stared into Ning Yuewan's eyes.

"Ah? You, why would you think that?"

Facing Chen Xuan's gaze, Ning Yuewan chose to avoid it. At the same time, she felt even more flustered. It's over, now he'll think even worse of her!
