Therefore, the young Long Chujun always ignored her father's cold eyes and never missed the meeting every seven days.
Not only that, to make her mother happy, she often dragged Long Aojun, who was three years younger than her, over. Long Aojun had been playful since childhood and always had a lot of energy. His presence always made her mother laugh more.
However, Long Aojun was born a year after his mother was imprisoned. He had never seen a normal family life, so he naively thought that all parents in the world were like this.
He only saw his mother a few times a year, so naturally he was not very close to her. It was also a child's nature to be afraid of pain, so he always didn't want to see his mother.
Long Chujun didn't know how to explain all this to him, so she simply said nothing. Every time she went there, she would also receive his ten whippings.
Three years later, my third sister, Long Yijun, was born.
Perhaps it was because my mother's health was deteriorating and she was always depressed, so when she gave birth to my third sister, her body could not bear it and she almost died.
Fortunately, the queen mother's life was saved in the end.
Unfortunately, because the third sister's mother was damaged, her Phoenix bloodline is not pure, but thin and weak. Even the power of her divine fire is not much different from that of ordinary flames.
My father was also furious because my mother was in critical condition. He had the heart to strangle my third sister who was still in her infancy. His face was gloomy and furious, as if he wanted to strangle her to death.
Later, because of his mother's pleading, he did not do it.
However, the third sister is also lucky——
At least as far as she could remember, her mother had already become the Empress. With the Empress ruling the empire, she had become the happiest and most carefree Third Princess of the Phoenix Power Kingdom. She was perfectly protected under her wings and had never witnessed such a crazy father and crazy love.
Back to the present moment, Long Aojun fell silent when he heard this...
Indeed, people like them have the blood of tyrants flowing in their veins. If they were to wield immense power, the consequences would be...
Unthinkable!
That's why the Queen Mother took so much trouble to teach them to control their emotions and to always remember their responsibilities.
And even his temperament is so similar to his father.
He tried, but... he couldn't change it...
The only thing he could do was to restrain himself.
But it is still inevitable to lose your mind.
So he never thought of competing with his sister for the throne, never thought of wanting that overwhelming power...
He couldn't do that, especially when he was in love, which made him even less suitable for that position.
"My sister is different from me, why not give it a try——"
"Ao Jun." She interrupted him before he finished speaking, saying, "I can't gamble with the entire Huangquan Kingdom."
"I'm just afraid that my sister will have regrets..."
"I don't, and I can't."
As she spoke, her figure stood proudly upright, towering like a pine tree, majestic like a mountain. Then she glanced at the sky, averted her gaze, said a brief goodbye, and left, hands clasped behind her back, gradually walking away...
......
Beijing Suburban Courtyard——
Shen Wuyou couldn't sleep, so she lay on the railing of the terrace and looked up at the starry sky. The bright starlight seemed to be reflected in her pupils.
She looked up at the moonlight, which shone on her eyes and eyebrows, and she looked quiet and gentle. Her red lips moved slightly, and she uttered a few words softly:
"Sir, did you destroy the Demon Suppression Tower?"
"...Um."
The man behind him stood under the shadow of the eaves with his arms folded across his chest, holding the cold and brilliant sword.
"Sir, with your strength, you wouldn't make a mistake. So, may I ask, why did you destroy the Demon Suppression Tower?"
Her voice was as light and airy as the fragrance of orchids in a valley. It sounded like a gentle breeze from a mountain stream gently brushing against the petals, so quiet and beautiful.
Ling Wangqing stood beside her, watching her look up at the starry sky, without saying a word.
Her eyes were filled with stars, and his eyes were filled with her smile.
Seeing that he didn't answer, she turned back to look at him: "Sir, you never do things without reason... So, there must be something in that Demon Suppression Tower, right?"
He still didn't answer.
"Young Master is a cold and aloof person. He wouldn't intervene unless it involved the safety of his companions. So... there must be something in that Demon Suppression Tower that could harm us, right?"
She analyzed this, slowly walked towards him, looked up at his indifferent and deep eyes, and said word by word:
"But we are all human beings. What could be in the Demon-Suppressing Tower that could threaten their safety?
"I sent Poppy to check it out, and she told me there were hundreds of demon-locking arrays inside, but none of them were empty, with no demons..."
His eyes were a little evasive, his gaze a little off, but she didn't want to just ignore it:
"Young Master..."
She followed him closely, not wanting him to escape her gaze:
"Is it because of me?"
Among them, she was the only one who was a demon. And during her conversation with Ye Yuetan, she also learned the information he had collected -
This Demon-Suppressing Tower was the one that Long Chujun started to renovate a year after he left Xuwang Mountain and returned to Huangquan Kingdom. It cost a huge amount of money, and it is said that he spent a lot of money to hire many talented people to set up hundreds of layers of demon-locking formations and restrictions in the tower. Those indestructible chains are still brand new today.
so...
It's no wonder she thought too much, this was obviously directed at her.
And what Long Chujun said today in the palace just happened to confirm her guess.
But what she wanted to know most at the moment was whether Ling Wangqing was nearby at that time and heard something, so he suddenly appeared when she had an unbearable headache and took her away. He then took advantage of the situation and split the Demon-Suppressing Tower with a sword while fighting against the Flying Viper, destroying those formations and restrictions.
Ling Wangqing didn't know whether he was nervous or unhappy. His face became much more tense and serious, but his lips were still tightly pursed. No one knew what he was struggling with.
Shen Wuyou wanted to pursue him, but he was too cold and didn't like to talk. Even if he wanted to do something for others, he wouldn't take credit for it. Moreover, if others didn't notice it, he wouldn't even mention it.
If even she is like this, I'm afraid the two of them won't make any progress for hundreds of years.
Therefore, special circumstances always require special methods.
She slowly approached, her body almost touching his.
A faint fragrance, a cool fragrance, gradually blending, intertwining, becoming sweeter and sweeter...
She said, "Yes is yes, no is no. Your hesitation will only arouse people's imagination..."
She slowly stood on tiptoe and leaned close to his ear, her warm breath gently spraying on his neck, stirring up a tingling sensation like a feather brushing against it.
"For example... I would wonder, why did you do this? You clearly destroyed the Demon Suppression Tower that could have bound me, and you clearly did a good deed that I should be grateful for... But why did you remain silent about it, keeping it secret?
"Are you also thinking of imitating the New Emperor and trapping me in another Demon Locking Tower, doing whatever you want to me and taking advantage of me completely...?"
