The little guy shook his head, and Xie Yan felt a lump in her throat. She clearly had something on her mind, but didn't want to tell him.
There were vendors hawking their wares all along the way. Little Gem was very excited and kept pestering Shuhua to buy him some treats.
As Sisi looked at the candied hawthorns, a string of them was suddenly handed to her. She looked up and Xie Yan smiled slightly, "Try it, it's quite delicious."
Sisi didn't want to answer.
She was afraid that if she ate it, she would soften her heart and wouldn't be able to do it.
Xie Yan's eyes darkened. "What exactly happened?"
"Five-Pot Pot." The little guy looked up at him, "If Sisi hurt you, would you hate Sisi?"
Hearing this, Yu Chen narrowed his eyes.
Xie Yan smiled and said, "You've been thinking about this all along? Don't overthink it, I won't hate you."
No matter what you did.
Xie Yan looked at her and suddenly felt his eyes sting.
He shoved the candied hawthorn into her hand and said in a hoarse voice, "Eat it, don't overthink it."
"You should have killed her with that candied hawthorn." Demon Bone chuckled.
Xie Yan remained silent.
The carriage soon stopped outside a newly opened Wanbaolou restaurant. Inside, there were acrobatic performances, storytelling, and other entertainment. The restaurant was very lively and crowded.
The children disembarked from the carriage one after another, and the waiter arranged a private room on the second floor, while the acrobatic performance on the first floor had already begun.
How much does a private room cost?
The waiter chuckled, "Our manager said that if the princess brings her friends to play, they won't have to pay for anything for the rest of their lives."
Shuhua laughed, "Today we also have the Princess's blessing."
"That's wonderful!" Little Gem exclaimed happily. "Princess, we won't have to pay for our visits anymore!"
Will there be a future?
Sisi thought blankly, "If I kill the Demon King, I'll go back to the Dragon Palace and never come to the human world again."
Xie Yan glanced at her and suggested, "There's a game of musical chairs downstairs, let's play too. Whoever gets a turn has to choose between truth or dare, how about that?"
"Okay, okay."
The atmosphere immediately became lively.
Xie Yan took the flowers, intending to give them to Sisi.
She suddenly tugged at Shuhua's sleeve, "Sister Shuhua, I need to use the restroom."
"This servant will take you there."
Xie Yan handed over the empty flower, his eyes growing even dimmer. Little Gem, oblivious to this, snatched it away, saying, "Quick, quick, let's pass it on."
"You guys play, I'm going to the restroom."
Xie Yan got up and left.
Little Gem muttered, "Why do they all have to go to the toilet at the same time? What a coincidence! Never mind them, let's play!"
As Sisi left the room, she ran into Zhao Yuan.
He kept staring at her, but didn't chase after her calling her "Little Ancestor" like he used to.
Sisi understood what was going on and said to Shuhua with a smile, "Sister Shuhua, you go back first. I'll play with Brother Yuan for a while, and then we'll go back together."
Shuhua didn't want to leave, but seeing Zhao Yuan's warning look, she left after looking back every few steps.
"Who are you, one of the Four Immortals?"
"Azure Dragon," Zhao Yuan said in a hoarse voice, "Princess, the Dragon King has already informed the remaining three immortals that we will make our move first today, and if we fail, then you may take action."
"you?"
Sisi looked around and suddenly saw Sui Jin and a woman in red on the opposite corridor. The woman kept waving at her; it must be Zhuque.
The four immortals have gathered together.
The guests at Wanbaolou had been cleared out at some point, and the doors were tightly shut. Only the acrobatic performances on the first floor continued.
"I see."
Sisi was walking back when a pair of feet suddenly appeared in front of her. She looked up and met Xie Yan's dark eyes.
"Five pots..."
"Let's go back."
He took her hand, and a burning pain shot through him, but Xie Yan stubbornly pulled her into the private room.
The demon bone shrieked, "Are you crazy? You clearly heard what they were saying, why are you still holding onto her? Do you want to die?"
When they arrived at the private room, all the other children were gone, except for Little Gem and Shuhua, who were watching him very warily.
It looks like someone said something.
"Release the princess!" Shuhua drew the soft sword from her waist, ready to fight at any moment.
Little Gem grinned at him, "Let go of the princess right now, you big bad guy, let go of the princess immediately!"
Xie Yan acted as if he hadn't seen them, pulling Sisi down to sit, his gaze slightly unfocused as he watched the acrobatics performance below.
"Look, isn't it beautiful?"
Sisi didn't look there, but looked out the window. The arrow was aimed directly at his heart. As long as she didn't move, and Xie Yan didn't move, he would surely die.
Wu Guoguo was about to die in front of her.
Sisi's eyes were terribly blurry. She lowered her head and remained silent, while the person beside her smiled.
"I clearly did nothing."
With a sudden sound.
Xie Yan's eyes were filled with ferocity, and his body was radiating a powerful black aura, which caused the arrow to shatter into ashes.
He pushed Sisi into a corner, and a dark, god-slaying crossbow appeared in his hand. He fired it with a backhand motion, and the enormous demonic energy almost shredded half of the roof off.
The next second, a ball of fire spewed over, but because of Xie Yan's demonic energy, it couldn't burn him at all, but it did set the entire room ablaze.
"Sister Shuhua, quickly take the princess away!" Little Gem pushed Sisi towards Shuhua, and seeing the two of them, he immediately transformed into a giant snake, opening his mouth wide to bite Xie Yan.
The person the princess wanted to kill was her enemy.
Xie Yan slapped him away; the little gem's power was negligible in front of him, and he quickly fainted.
"Wanbaolou is about to collapse."
Sui Jin set up a barrier around the entire Wanbaolou, and the people had no idea what was happening inside.
He conjured an ice blade and charged straight at Xie Yan. With a clang, Yu Chen blocked his path in mid-air.
