A tall figure, silver armor, and a cloak on her back.
"So you still believe me, right?"
The sea breeze was cool in the latter half of the night, and this lonely little island in the South China Sea was unusually greeted by two uninvited guests.
"I generally believe it." Wang Ji nodded noncommittally upon hearing this: "I just didn't expect it."
The cool sea breeze carried a faint fishy smell along with a refreshing fragrance, emanating from the strands of hair on the right side of the silver blade at his neck.
The small hand pressing on her right shoulder, though fair and delicate, was quite strong. In Wang Ji's peripheral vision, he could also see the pink manicure, just like the pink lip gloss.
"At 30,000 years old, isn't it a little bit embarrassing to still be using such youthful colors?" He clicked his tongue and turned to look.
"Hey..." He turned his head so fast that He Xi almost couldn't react in time and hurriedly loosened his grip on the sword, nearly drawing blood.
Upon landing on the island, she first snorted, then casually released Wang Ji.
“Even 30,000 years from now, I’ll still be this color, unlike you… so young, yet so old-fashioned.” She casually lit a campfire, and there happened to be a large rock nearby, so she stepped on it and sat down.
He casually crossed his legs, rested his arm on his lap, and looked at Wang Ji with feigned disdain.
Wang Ji didn't take it to heart, raised his hand and picked up a suitable stone from afar, then sat down calmly.
A campfire burns, and two people sit facing each other.
"Heh, you figured this out too?" He Xi rested her chin on her hand, looking at him with interest. "What's it called?"
“The Heavenly Guidance of All Things, haven’t you heard of it?” Wang Ji also looked at her quietly. Although the two were not very familiar with each other and there was a greater age gap, it did not stop him from admiring the beauty.
“Universal Guidance… Let me see, oh~” He Xi casually checked the information about Earth and immediately understood the term Wang Ji was referring to.
"Then... you can also use Shinra Tensei and Chibaku Tensei?" He Xi couldn't help but laugh. This feeling was so interesting, it felt like teasing a child...
"I happen to know them all," Wang Ji said with a smirk. "Would you like to give it a try?"
These things all share a common origin.
"No! No, no, no, no..." He Xi quickly called out to stop her, making a gesture to stop her.
No sooner had they finished speaking than a large pile of sand and gravel beside them was seen rising into the air and speeding away towards the distance!
Shinra Tensei...
"Wow, you're quite the player!" He Xi laughed instead of being surprised.
"Why do you always come out in the middle of the night?" Wang Ji stopped teasing her, raised his hand to summon a tea set, brewed tea, and handed her a cup.
"The cup is new, and there's no poison in it."
"Thanks." He Xi didn't stand on ceremony. She picked up the teacup, took a gentle sniff, and then sighed slightly, "It's been a while since I've had Lieyang's tea..."
He took a small sip and added, "It's just that my tea-brewing technique still needs improvement."
"You can't make things too difficult for a dog." Wang Ji shook his head slightly: "Anyway, I can't tell the difference between good and bad."
He Xi instantly understood the meaning behind Wang Ji's words, and her expression became somewhat strange: "Do you really have no one else to use?"
“I only have two underage little monsters under my command, that’s enough for me.” Wang Ji nodded in agreement, then added, “You still haven’t told me, are you addicted to disturbing people’s sleep, always knocking on the door in the middle of the night?”
"If I hadn't come in the middle of the night, I wouldn't have witnessed that scene... You're working so hard~ for the sake of your imperial ambitions?" He Xi twirled her teacup with interest, her starry eyes fixed on Wang Ji.
At two in the morning, she still thought he was in her arms.
"Hmm." Wang Ji nodded very naturally, and then said, "It's also to quietly wipe out our teammates, to inadvertently move the girls, and to accidentally touch the hearts of you night raid masters."
Even the most powerful and influential dynasties need a certain amount of low-key yet profound prestige, don't they?
The wind was strong by the sea, and the tea cooled down quickly. As the host, Wang Ji naturally refilled He Xi's teacup.
The night sky is always filled with endless loneliness.
The atmosphere was quiet for a while as we sipped hot tea.
“There’s a time difference between Tiancheng and Earth. Sometimes, when I’m thinking about something, I forget it,” He Xi said after quietly sipping her tea for a while.
Wang Ji chuckled lightly and glanced at her: "You might as well just say it was intentional."
Although the other party was always the one who reached out to him, and gradually adopted a more humble attitude, it wasn't really a case of being subservient; rather, it clearly had the mindset of teasing a child.
If it were truly a solemn occasion, how could it be that people wouldn't care about time differences?
"Hehe~" He Xi chuckled and didn't argue: "A secret relationship, a secret time, isn't that good enough?"
A serene, exotic starry sky, a quiet island, and enjoying tea in peace with a local young man with grand ambitions—that would be a wonderful experience...
Wang Ji didn't criticize the other party's deliberate ambiguity. Even if the other party's flirting were more direct, the psychological gap of being 30,000 years old couldn't be bridged by mere physical attraction.
Even if the other person is more ambiguous, he won't be interested in her.
Even if he appreciates it more openly, he doesn't have much hope.
And at 30,000 years old, who knows if it will still be C... Is that even possible?
"Let's have a good talk. I know you still trust me to some extent." He Xi casually pointed to her chin, looked at him, and held out an empty cup for him to refill his tea.
This was the second time she had mentioned Wang Ji, which meant she believed her, or at least believed that Wang Ji did not have malicious intentions.
The reason is actually quite simple: when Wang Ji suddenly discovered her, he was quite surprised, but he did not do anything drastic.
