Chapter 358 I Want to See More of You (4000 words)

In the courtyard.

Xu Ming sat in the yard, holding the teacup on the stone table, watching the morning sun slowly rising not far away.

The red morning glow dyed the entire sky red, and the whole world was covered with a layer of red makeup, but unlike the sunset glow, the red of the morning glow appeared lighter.

The night had just passed, and it was indeed a bit cold in Wudu in this autumn.

In fact, Xu Ming had already woken up when Chen Suya woke up.

"Why, aren't you going to see your mother off?"

Zhou Wanfeng walked out of his room and looked at Xu Ming who was sitting in the yard.

Just by looking at Xu Ming's back, Zhou Wanfeng could feel that he was a little melancholy.

In fact, Zhou Wanfeng and Xu Ming both knew that Chen Suya would leave.

But neither of them revealed it.

Xu Ming shook his head: "No need to see her off. Since mother chose to leave this morning, it means that mother doesn't want me to see her off."

Zhou Wanfeng nodded: "That's true, your mother must be afraid that she will be reluctant to let you go when you say goodbye to her.

Actually, I think you can also think about it in a positive way. Now your mother's personality will not be erased, and your mother is a powerful monk with a long life.

In this way, even after a hundred years, you won't have to experience that heart-wrenching separation.

Your mother can stay with you for a very long time.

And she had no choice, she had to go to the Northern Wasteland."

Xu Ming smiled and said, "In this world, everyone practices hard and tries hard to improve their strength. Isn't it just to give themselves more choices at certain times?"

Zhou Wanfeng glanced at Xu Ming: "So now, what are your plans?"

Xu Ming took a sip of the tea in the cup, but the tea had already gone cold: "What else can I plan? Let's go to the palace to meet the emperor. I will be on a diplomatic mission to Beihai in a few days.

If we count from now on, it will take about two months to reach Beihai.

Just in time for the Four Seas Celebration at the Dragon Palace in the North Sea.

If I were late, missing an hour, it would not only be my own problem, but would also bring shame to the Wu Kingdom.

Although I don't have a strong sense of belonging to Wu State, I must say that Emperor Wu has helped me a lot, and I still have to repay this favor."

"It's not just because Emperor Wu has helped you a lot, the most important thing is that your little princess lover is in Wu Kingdom." Zhou Wanfeng smiled.

Xu Ming: “…”

Xu Ming did not deny it. In this situation, not denying it was equivalent to admitting it.

"Are you really running around?" Zhou Wanfeng smiled and did not continue on this issue.

Xu Ming is a genius, he is also good-looking and responsible, so it is normal for women to like him.

Not to mention those little girls, if I were a few hundred years younger, I might also fall in love with this little boy.

"I don't want to run around, but that person asked me to go. Do you think I can't go?" Xu Ming shook his head helplessly. "But fortunately, I do have something to do in Beihai, so it's just a matter of convenience."

"The guy from Beihai specifically asked you to go?" Zhou Wanfeng looked at Xu Ming incredulously. "Do you have any relationship with that guy from Beihai?"

Although Zhou Wanfeng had never seen the Dragon Queen of the North Sea, he was well aware of her reputation.

The Dragon Queen of the North Sea dominated the top spot on the Beauty List for ten thousand years until she was squeezed off by the female monk. In addition to the Beauty List, what is even more famous is that the Dragon Queen of the North Sea has always been in the top ten of the World List, and is one of the few people in the world who have reached the Ascension Realm.

The emperor of the North Sea was extremely proud, but also extremely affectionate, even to the point where it was incomprehensible to others.

The North Sea Emperor never cared about anyone except his old lover.

Not to mention actively paying attention to a human being.

Although Xu Ming is indeed very famous on the Qingyun List.

But the problem is that there are so many people coming and going on the Qingyun Ranking, who was actively invited by the North Sea Dragon Queen? Never.

So Zhou Wanfeng was very curious, what kind of strengths did Xu Ming have that could impress the North Sea Dragon Queen? "Well, since you've left Wudu, it's meaningless for me to stay here alone, so I can only go with you. That shouldn't be a problem, right?" Zhou Wanfeng said to Xu Ming.

Xu Ming nodded: "Senior Zhou, please do as you please."

Although nothing should happen during his trip to the North Sea this time, it is better to be safe than sorry. It would be good to have a cultivator in the fifth realm to protect him.

"Okay, I'll go get ready then." Zhou Wanfeng smiled and said, "I've never seen the legendary Dragon Queen in my life, and this time I'm also blessed by you."

Xu Ming didn't take Zhou Wanfeng's joke seriously, but changed the subject and asked Zhou Wanfeng: "I made a deal with you before. You will protect my mother while I am in the Rootless Secret Realm. After I come back, I will promise you to do something within my ability. What do you want me to do?"

Hearing Xu Ming fulfill his promise, Zhou Wanfeng's mouth curled up slightly, took a step forward, bent down, and looked up at Xu Ming from below: "Don't worry, even if you forget this, I still remember it. I'll tell you tonight."

Xu Ming: “…”

Xu Ming felt that he had a vague guess as to what it was.

But if this was really the case, Xu Ming really had no way to refuse.

Because this matter is indeed not against morality and does not hurt others.

In a sense, I even got the upper hand.

Although I have no interest in buses, I have to say that Zhou Wanfeng is really pretty.

After Xu Ming agreed to Zhou Wanfeng's request, he left the courtyard.

Xu Ming walked into the palace again and paid his respects to Emperor Wu.

Emperor Wu naturally knew that Chen Suya had left, but he did not mention Chen Suya again, and Xu Ming also directly stated that he could now go on a diplomatic mission to the Dragon Palace in the North Sea.

Emperor Wu was very happy about this.

Not everyone can attend the Four Seas Ceremony held in the Dragon Palace of the North Sea this time.

Among the ten dynasties of the human race, five dynasties were not invited, and those five dynasties had been established for thousands of years.

Not to mention, the Wu State was established only three hundred years ago, and it has no connection with the North Sea Dragon Palace. Why would the North Sea Dragon Palace invite him?

Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, the Wu Kingdom will definitely be the one ignored by the North Sea Dragon Palace in this Four Seas Ceremony.

But because of Xu Ming, Wu State also had a place in this ceremony.

If this Four Seas Ceremony can allow Wu State and North Sea Dragon Palace to establish a friendship, it will definitely be of great benefit to Wu State's future development.

Let's not talk about whether the North Sea Dragon Palace will help if Wu State is in crisis. Even if they don't help, what does it matter? If Wu State and the North Sea Dragon Palace are on good terms, it will be a kind of deterrence invisibly.

If anyone wants to take action against the Wu State, they must first consider this factor.

Emperor Wu said that he had already formed a diplomatic mission, and Xu Ming would serve as the chief officer of this delegation, which would be ready to set off in two days.

Xu Ming originally thought that it would take at least three or four days, but he didn't expect that Emperor Wu would directly let him set off two days later.

This shows that Emperor Wu really cares about his friendship with the Dragon Palace in the North Sea.

But for Xu Ming, it doesn't matter whether these days are more or less, because he has nothing to do in Wudu anyway.

After leaving the imperial study, Xu Ming just walked out of the palace and saw a woman in a cassock waiting for him outside the palace.

Seeing Xu Ming walking out of the palace, Shi Xin's eyes blinked.

"What's wrong? Why are you here?" Xu Ming walked forward and asked.

"Wait for you." Shi Xin answered very straightforwardly.

Xu Ming smiled and said, "If there is anything, why don't you tell me when I get back?"

Shi Xin shook his head: "Just now, Master sent me a golden paper bird and asked me to go back."

Xu Ming: "Are you in such a hurry? Are you leaving now?"

Shi Xin nodded: "From the tone of Master, he is indeed very anxious."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Xu Ming sighed: "That's a pity. I originally wanted to take you to visit the Dragon Palace in the North Sea, and then go to the Western Regions with you."

"There's nothing to regret. I've been out for a long time, and it's time to go back." Shi Xin said calmly.

"Okay, then I'll take you there." Xu Ming did not try to keep Shi Xin. A polite attempt to keep him was useless and unnecessary.

The relationship between myself and Shi Xin has always been straightforward.

Shi Xin nodded and did not refuse.

The two of them walked on the streets of Wudu, and Shi Xin's appearance once again attracted everyone's attention, but neither Xu Ming nor Shi Xin himself cared about it.

The two walked side by side without saying a word. Although they were about to say goodbye, Xu Ming did not feel sad. Anyway, when he came back from the Dragon Palace in the North Sea, he would go to the Western Regions to see her.

As for Shi Xin, Shi Xin actually wanted to talk to Xu Ming, but Shi Xin didn't know what to say.

Originally, Shi Xin was not the kind of person who was good at speaking.

When Xu Ming didn't take the initiative to bring up the topic, Shi Xin naturally wouldn't take the initiative to speak either.

And in Shi Xin's heart, there was a strange feeling.

This strange feeling originated from the moment the abbot of Leiming Temple sent a letter to Shixin.

When Shi Xin knew that he was leaving Wudu, a sense of loss emerged in his heart.

Shi Xin didn't know why he didn't want to leave. There was nothing for him to do in Wudu, but he just didn't want to leave.

This is an inexplicable reason, Shi Xin just feels that she wants to spend more time with Xu Ming.

This feeling has never happened to me before.

"Maybe I've gotten used to it after being with him for so long." Shi Xin explained to himself in his heart.

"Just send it here. Donor Xu, you don't have to send it again."

When Xu Ming sent Shi Xin to the city gate, Shi Xin stopped, turned around and said to Xu Ming.

Xu Ming nodded, and didn’t bother to be polite with Shi Xin: “Okay, I’ll send you here, and be careful when you go back.

Remember not to trust others too much. In many cases, saving your own life is the most important thing.

As for that Chaos, you must show it to your master as soon as you return, and keep an eye on it, don't let it harm the world."

"No." Shi Xin's tone sounded a bit stubborn, "I have a feeling that this Chaos will be very obedient."

Xu Ming smiled and said, "Okay then, I'll go to your place to take a look. Don't let this Chaos not wake up when I go there."

"Yeah." Shi Xin nodded.

Hearing that Xu Ming would come to Leiming Temple to see Xiao Hundun, Shi Xin couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Xu Ming: "That's it, I'm going back now, you can go slowly by yourself, and see if there's any way to reply to me when you get there. Forget it, I guess I won't be able to see your reply, and I'll be in Beihai by then."

"Yeah." Shi Xin nodded.

"Goodbye." Xu Ming waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the imperial capital.

Shi Xin just watched Xu Ming walk into Wudu step by step.

Xu Ming could feel Shi Xin's gaze from behind him and turned around: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

Shi Xin shook his head: "Nothing."

"Then why don't you leave? Why are you looking at me?"

Xu Ming smiled speechlessly.

From time to time, this female monk would do something that I couldn't understand, making it seem like she was saying goodbye to me.

"I don't know either." Shi Xin shook his head.

Xu Ming: “Don’t know?”

"Um."

Shi Xin nodded.

“I don’t know why.

I just want to see you all the time."

[I never checked the word count, but today I found that I have already written nearly 1 million words. This is really unexpected.

Although the performance of this book is not very good, I still enjoyed writing it.

If nothing unexpected happens, this book should be completed in about 1 million words.

After it's finished, I plan to try something different.

As for the style, it will probably be light-hearted and humorous, but as for the subject matter, I will try something different.

Although I will still post to this account, I will be a newcomer and starting over, and I hope to make some breakthroughs.

Thank you to all the readers who have read this far. Dear readers, rest assured that although the performance of this book is indeed not very good, I will definitely finish it well. ］(End of this chapter)
