The shouting gradually faded away, and Xie Xihe came back to his senses. For the first time, his eyes fell on the center of Emperor Hao's eyebrows, and he stared at him intently.
Frames of images flashed before his eyes like a kaleidoscope. Some were things Xie Xihe remembered, some happened during the thousand years when Xie Xihe was away, and some were things that were about to happen.
But no matter whether it is the past, present or future, judging from the picture alone, Emperor Hao is indeed a qualified god - at least more qualified than her.
The scene continued, and Xie Xihe stared at him without blinking.
Emperor Hao knew that she was trying to figure out his fortune, so he didn't resist and stood in front of her with a smile on his lips.
Suddenly, Xie Xihe's expression changed, and he raised his eyes to look at Emperor Hao.
"Are you tired? You just returned and your strength has not yet fully recovered. Why don't you go back to the palace and rest first? It's not too late to talk about anything later." Emperor Hao asked with concern.
Facing such a sincere and caring look, I'm afraid no one would be able to say no.
Xie Xihe withdrew his gaze and responded casually.
Emperor Hao smiled and ordered, "Come, send Lord Shenshou back to the palace to rest."
His gaze fell on Xie Chujun and Sheng Shijing, and he paused for a moment: "There are two more distinguished guests. Clean up the Aurora Palace and invite the two distinguished guests..."
"No need." Before Emperor Hao could finish his words, Xie Xihe interrupted him. Glancing at Emperor Hao, she said calmly, "No need to pack up. They can just live with me in the Xihuang Palace."
Emperor Hao's voice was gentle, but he would not tolerate rejection: "This is against the rules."
"Rules?" Xie Xihe tilted his head. "What rules? Who made them?"
Of course, it’s you who set the rules.
Emperor Hao subconsciously wanted to answer, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he noticed a flash of indifference and coldness in Xie Xihe's eyes, and his expression paused.
His eyes swept back and forth between Xie Xihe and Sheng Shijing. Even though he was filled with a myriad of emotions, he had to face one reality - they were husband and wife.
Even if he separated them this time, there would be a next time, and the next time... countless times.
With his current status and strength, he could indeed separate the two of them forcefully regardless of Xie Xihe's wishes, but this would only make Xier annoyed and angry.
Not worth it.
Forget it, there are less than two months left until Xier’s birthday, so let her relax for a while.
As long as she can truly become Emperor Xi again, nothing else matters.
Having made up his mind, Emperor Hao's expression relaxed and he said with a smile, "I will listen to Master Shenshou."
Luo Er didn't expect him to give in so easily. The smile on his lips froze instantly, and he subconsciously said, "Sir, this is against the rules..."
Before he finished speaking, he met Xie Xihe's gaze.
Xie Xihe's appearance now is very different from when she was Emperor Xi.
Both of them were extremely beautiful, but the difference was that Emperor Xi had a more cold and lonely appearance, and his whole body exuded a frosty aura from the inside out, which made people feel cold all over at the sight of him, and they dared not harbor any rebellious thoughts.
However, Xie Xihe's appearance is cold and gorgeous, and her gorgeousness overshadows her coldness.
Especially those peach blossom eyes, which were shimmering and her gaze was somewhat scattered and casual, so beautiful that it was breathtaking.
Luo Er felt that after a thousand years, her awe of her had long since disappeared in the long river of time, not to mention that the person standing before her now was only Emperor Xi, whose strength had not yet recovered and who might not even be able to defeat her. What was there to be afraid of?
But the moment their eyes met, she knew she was wrong.
Some things are engraved in the soul and will not change no matter how many years pass or how many reincarnations occur.
Beneath Xie Xihe's casual and relaxed exterior, he still possesses the soul that makes all the ancient gods tremble!!!
"Luo Er?" Xie Xihe suddenly spoke, bringing Luo Er back to his senses from his daze.
Luo Er straightened his back reflexively. When he realized what was happening, he felt an uncontrollable surge of anger and resentment in his heart. He raised his chin slightly and said, "It's me. What can I do for you, sir?"
Xie Xihe curled his lips and said nonchalantly, "I don't have any advice, but I'm a little curious. Since when did the Ancient Gods become able to retain power on Earth and use it for their own benefit? Who set this rule?"
"You?"
"Who gave you this right?" His eyes turned and fell on Emperor Hao: "You?"
Emperor Hao frowned slightly, his mind racing, and with a flick of his sleeves, he flung Luo Er out, saying in a cold voice, "Master Divine Chief is asking questions, but you'd better answer truthfully."
Luo Er was caught off guard and was hit. Although he was not seriously injured, the crown on his head and the staff in his hand were knocked away. His originally meticulous robes were also messed up, and he looked in a miserable state.
How many years?
Luo Er couldn't remember how many years it had been since he had felt so embarrassed.
I was so angry that I almost forgot where I was!
So what if it’s me? ! ! !
Luo Er suddenly looked up at Xie Xihe, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction and resentment that almost overflowed. The rhetorical question was on the tip of his tongue, but just as it was about to come out, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
A cool gaze fell on her, like a basin of ice water poured over her head, instantly extinguishing Luo Er's anger and making her feel cold from the inside out.
She shuddered violently.
After regaining his composure, Luo Er tried hard not to look at the gazes of those around him who were watching the show, and stood in front of Xie Xihe again.
This time, he didn't dare to be presumptuous. He lowered his head slightly and said, "My lord, I'm afraid you've misunderstood. Since you left, in the past thousand years, I haven't even left the Ancient God Realm. How can I maintain my influence on Earth?"
Xie Xihe raised his eyebrows: "Did I misunderstand? So, the Windsor family has nothing to do with you?"
Luo Er's heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm as he said, "I can't say there's no connection at all. Over a thousand years ago, I once entered the cycle of reincarnation and lived on Earth for decades. The Windsor family is my descendant on Earth. If you must explain the relationship, then I can indeed be considered the ancestor of the Windsor family."
"However, you are also aware of my entry into the cycle of reincarnation. Among the ancient gods, except for a few adults, who has not lived on Earth? Since they have become reincarnated, it is normal for them to leave behind some descendants. As for your mention of leaving behind power for personal use, I don't understand why you would say that."
Luo Er said, looking up at Xie Xihe, suddenly smiled, and continued: "My lord, you have returned to the ancient god realm after a thousand years and have ascended to the position of the head god. It is understandable that you are a little anxious and uneasy. If it were something else, it would be fine. As a subordinate, I should share your worries."
"But the matter of privately establishing a power is of great importance. If I accept it, I will inevitably be punished by heavenly thunder. I beg for your forgiveness, sir."
Luo Er said this, and then he bowed deeply to Xie Xihe, showing sincerity and respect.
Xie Xihe smiled.
This was just short of saying that she was lying and using her to intimidate others. Did she really think that she couldn't do anything to her because she had no evidence?
