"Do you think that the apparent peace of the Heavenly Realm means that internal strife won't happen? The current Heavenly Emperor is inactive, and there are already many complaints. It's only a matter of time before internal strife breaks out! I'm just bringing this blood transfusion forward. Besides, with you as the successor in the Heavenly Realm, what are you panicking about? I won't do anything to you. You can still give the Heavenly Clan a chance to start over, just as you originally envisioned."
Song Xiwei's words completely shattered the tense atmosphere that Wu Lai was in.
His tense expression began to crumble.
"Don't make any moves against the Heavenly Emperor for now. It's not that I'm pleading for the Heavenly Emperor, but after you attacked the Heavenly Venerable, he will definitely not let you succeed easily. If you act rashly, you might get yourself killed!"
Hearing Wu Lai's meaning, it seemed he wanted to discuss this further with him.
"But this matter can't be delayed for too long. You know, I came to the Heavenly Realm to win this battle quickly and catch them off guard. If it drags on for too long, I really can't afford to wait. My beloved is still waiting for me to go back to see him! I think about him every moment."
Speaking of her beloved, Song Xiwei was practically longing for him.
The heavy atmosphere between Wu Lai and Song Xiwei was instantly dispelled.
Wu Lai rolled her eyes at Song Xiwei.
He noticed that Song Xiwei was covering her chest with one hand. Although he couldn't tell anything from her face, he still sensed something was amiss.
"Are you injured?" Wu Lai asked.
Song Xi shook her head slightly, "It's nothing."
"Nothing wrong? You went to the Upper Heaven and even trapped the Celestial Venerable. No matter what method you used, it's impossible for you to have escaped unscathed without sustaining some injuries..."
"Can't you wish me well for once?" Song Xiwei said speechlessly.
"Where exactly are you injured? Where's the elixir I gave you?" Wu Lai pressed.
Song Xi shook her head slightly. "I suddenly used too much divine power, and my body couldn't take it anymore. Now I feel weak in my limbs and my heartbeat has slowed down. Plus, you were so tense just now, like you were about to fight me at any moment. I thought you were going to draw your sword against me, so I was a little angry."
"Come with me," Wu Lai said, his lips moving slightly.
Song Xiwei followed him to the back and saw that Wu Lai had already prepared a medicinal bath tub, and the medicinal soup inside was already ready.
"Wu Lai, Wu Lai, you're quite considerate!"
Song Xiwei went straight into the bathtub and was soaked in the medicinal bath. She felt that the depletion of her divine power was being rapidly repaired.
"No matter how thoughtful I am, it's useless... You don't like it anyway." Wu Lai turned her head away, her heart filled with bitterness.
He was very clear about his significance to Song Xiwei. As the first crown prince of the Heavenly Realm, guided by the God, he bore an important mission and could not afford to spend his mind on emotions. Moreover, even if he wanted to, it would depend on whether Song Xiwei was willing.
Song Xiwei's heart has already been given to someone else. Even though he is so close to her now, that position can never become his.
Song Xiwei soaked in the medicinal bath, sniffing the air. "Eh? You added some herbs? This time it smells quite nice, a bit like a pastry... Speaking of which, I think I'm a little hungry. Um, Wulai, I can have some snacks while I'm soaking in the medicinal bath. Or, could you go to the Heavenly Palace and find me some delicious pastries?"
What kind of time is this to still be indulging in gluttony?
Wu Lai glared at her speechlessly. "I never eat the food from the Heavenly Palace when I come here. You're asking me to find food? Are you hoping to arouse suspicion and expose your whereabouts?"
"That's a bit of a shame," Song Xi sighed.
"Behave yourself and enjoy your medicinal bath." That's what Wu Lai said, but he still went out to find food for Song Xiwei.
He couldn't explain why he was moved by Song Xiwei time and time again, and why he indulged her more and more without any limits.
