So it's best to let it obediently bind itself to her. Once it's on her, she'll make it kneel down and call her "Daddy."

Unfortunately, she couldn't tell anyone about these things.

Wu Xu gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, looking like he would never respond.

Xiao Zhixing snorted, "Alright, you can leave now. I'd like to see how you're going to deal with it, just don't make me clean up the mess."

Wu Xu practically took off running, leaping onto the roof and disappearing instantly.

[Yellow comment: Hahaha, the old Taoist priest must be terrified.]

[Red comment: Wait, you guys are still laughing? Didn't you hear they're going to have a final battle with the monster? Ahhh, I'm curious, I want to watch!]

[Green comment: Please, please, please don't let anything go wrong!!]

The audience in both dimensions one and three shouted in unison, "You jinx! Shut up!!"

A smile played in Xiao Zhixing's eyes, and the guesses in his heart became clearer.

The next day, the city of Shengjing was still buzzing with excitement over Xiao Zhixing becoming the crown prince, and the fervor remained high.

The female emperor and crown prince were the first of their kind, and their popularity was comparable to a change of dynasty.

However, the public's reaction to her rise from a courtier to the crown prince was lukewarm; her status as Xiao Yan's daughter, however, gave her some added appeal.

That day, she summoned her subordinates, first ordering Xiong Chumo and Huo Baijun to return to the south, and also ordering Mu Wan to return to their respective posts.

"Peace in all directions, that is, great peace and prosperity. Gentlemen, I entrust the peace and security of our borders to you. I believe that you will be able to defend our land and expand our territory!"

The three knelt on one knee, their eyes slightly warm, "Your Highness, we will certainly not fail your trust!"

Next are Xiao Jue, Lin Muzhen, Li Sandi, Jiang Tan, and others. Just meet them briefly to show your goodwill.

As evening fell, Mu Zixi secretly came to see her and delivered the news from Nanfan immediately.

Xiao Zhixing gestured for him to sit down. "What are your thoughts?"
