90: Return to the Palace

It was a while before they slowly separated. Zhou Jingqi's cheeks were flushed, and she looked at Chen Xuan, her eyes full of tenderness.

"You, you're just too naughty!" Zhou Jingqi complained in a low voice.

Chen Xuan laughed heartily and said, "I just like to tease you, what about it?"

"Hmph, I'm ignoring you!" Zhou Jingqi turned away, feigning anger.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan quickly chased after her and hugged her from behind. He whispered, "Alright, don't be angry, I was just joking with you."

Zhou Jingqi was held by Chen Xuan, feeling his warm embrace, and a warm current surged in her heart. She turned around, looked at Chen Xuan, and a brilliant smile bloomed on her face.

"Then, what if I can't Breakthrough to Soul Transformation?"

"If you can't Breakthrough, then we won't Breakthrough. I must support my wife, so no matter where you are, I will find you!" Chen Xuan said firmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jingqi's face bloomed with a brilliant smile, like a blossoming flower, incredibly beautiful, making one's mouth water.

...

It was still Zhou Jingqi's Princess Residence, but Chen Xuan suddenly flew out of it. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, so he didn't land on his backside.

"What's going on? I just tasted a piece of fruit, is it really necessary to do this? Throwing me out directly, is there still justice? Is there still law?!"

"Hurry up and leave, you... big scoundrel! Hurry back to your Zhao family, you only know how to bully us!" Zhou Jingqi's angry voice came from inside the Princess Residence, followed by a loud slam of the door.

Chen Xuan scrambled up from the ground, patted the dust off his clothes, smiled helplessly, and walked towards his room.

After returning to his room, Chen Xuan sat on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to enter meditation.

"Jingqi, that little enchantress, I had just begun to taste, but then I woke up, and now it's making me very uncomfortable!"

"How about... I go look for Lin Yunhan?"

"No, going to her now would definitely get me beaten up by her, but Han Wanqing isn't here..." Chen Xuan felt more and more uncomfortable the more he thought about it.

Suddenly, he clapped his hands.

"That's right, my Little Rabbit Consort is still here. I haven't even cared about her Cultivation! I must reflect and take good care of her!"

"This time... it will be the Fox Consort!"

With that, Chen Xuan's figure disappeared from his room.

Night, Qi Prince Residence.

Gao Yueting, whose Cultivation had just undergone a Breakthrough, was still Cultivating in her room, consolidating her Cultivation.

Suddenly, she felt someone enter her room. Gao Yueting was startled and immediately woke up from her meditation. She got up and saw that it was Chen Xuan.

"You, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to do something."

"!!?"

Chen Xuan also looked at Gao Yueting with a smile and said, "Little Rabbit, you're still Cultivating so late, truly diligent."

Upon hearing this, a flicker of panic flashed across Gao Yueting's face, but she quickly composed herself and asked, "Chen Xuan, you, why are you looking for me so late?"

Chen Xuan smiled and walked to Gao Yueting's side. The latter quickly distanced herself from him.

However, how could she escape Chen Xuan's grasp? He simply reached out, wrapped his arm around her waist, took a deep breath, and said:

"I'm not doing anything in particular; I just wanted to check on you and see how your Cultivation is progressing. After all, I promised to help you improve your Cultivation, so I need to be responsible for that."

Upon hearing this, a blush appeared on Gao Yueting's face, and a warmth surged in her heart. She lowered her head and softly said, "Thank you for your concern, I have already successfully made a Breakthrough."

"That's great! Seeing my Little Rabbit Consort make a Breakthrough, I can rest assured." Chen Xuan pinched Gao Yueting's small nose.

"If, if there's nothing else, you should leave. Zhao Lingwu must be getting anxious!"

"Oh? You also know my wife gets anxious? Then how dare you tie me up and bring me in?" Chen Xuan certainly wouldn't let go of this opportunity.

"I, I was blinded by greed at the time..."

"So, you caused me great harm, and I believe you need to compensate me."

"Compensate? I'm already like this, and you still think it's not enough?"

"Not enough, far from enough! If I truly had no strength, what would my fate be? I would just become a toy for you to manipulate, wouldn't I?"

"I..."

Gao Yueting seemed to sense Chen Xuan's determination to have her. Her face flushed, and she symbolically struggled for a moment, but Chen Xuan held her even tighter.

She felt an inexplicable joy in her heart, and she herself was startled by this reaction.

"Please, please respect yourself!" Gao Yueting said in a low voice.

"Then, do you think I need your compensation?" Chen Xuan looked at Gao Yueting's shy expression, finding her even more adorable, and couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her on the cheek.

Gao Yueting was startled by Chen Xuan's sudden action. She quickly broke free from Chen Xuan's embrace, took a few steps back, and looked at Chen Xuan with a completely flushed face.

"Whatever you want, just say it, I can give it all to you!" Gao Yueting said with a trembling voice.

"It's simple. You tied me up, so I naturally have to return the favor in kind!"

"It's useless, I am a Consort! If you really do that, let alone the Zhao family, even the Xuan Yang Sect wouldn't be able to protect you!"

Chen Xuan smiled, walked in front of Gao Yueting, reached out, gently lifted her chin, looked into her eyes, and said:

"Are you worried about me, Little Rabbit?"

"Don't, don't call me Rabbit, I'm not a Rabbit!"

"Not a Rabbit? Then what are you? A little fox?"

"Fox? What does this have to do with a fox?" Gao Yueting was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan's mouth curved into a smile. He lowered his head and covered Gao Yueting's red lips.

This time, Gao Yueting did not struggle anymore. Instead, she slowly closed her eyes, accepting Chen Xuan's affection.

"This, this will just be to consolidate my Cultivation. Once it's consolidated, I, I must drive him away!"

The night passed without a word.

Soon, Gao Yueting's Cultivation was consolidated. She even felt that her potential seemed to have increased, and simply by Cultivating normally, she seemed to be able to Breakthrough again.

"Alright, alright, it's already light. You should hurry back!"

Early the next morning, Gao Yueting took her tail and threw it on the ground.

"Uh, it's still early, let's sleep a little longer!"

"Hurry up and leave!" Gao Yueting stretched out her foot to kick him, but Chen Xuan firmly caught it.

"You should get ready too."

"I already told you, between us, it's absolutely impossible..."

"Slap!"

"I said, you get ready, and then cooperate with me to put on a show."

"Oh, acting is no problem, but we already agreed last night that you don't need to guide me in Cultivation anymore!"

"Slap!"

"Look at you now. Don't you want your Cultivation to surpass Zhao Lingwu's?"

"How is that possible! I'm not stupid. She's your woman; you wouldn't be reluctant to help her Cultivate, would you?"

"She's just taken a step ahead in improving her Cultivation. As your Cultivation gets higher and higher in the future, the gap between you two will naturally shorten. At that time, perhaps with one palm strike, you'll be able to flatten the entire Royal Secret Realm!"

"This, how is this possible? If it were really like that, why would I refuse..." At this point, Gao Yueting glanced at Chen Xuan and quickly shut her mouth.

If she accidentally let something slip, Chen Xuan would probably make her serve him!

"You just can't see that future right now. You'll naturally know in the future. For now, just play along with me."

"Oh." Gao Yueting then got up.

"Kiss."
