Jun Chenlan's voice, like the tolling of a bell, rang out:
"Your Majesty, you are traveling at such a slow pace that it will be a long time before you can return home. The Xingyuan Empire is a long way away, so I will see you off."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Linjian immediately sounded an alarm in his heart.
"!!!"
He quickly turned around, intending to say, "No need."
Before he could even finish speaking, Jun Chenlan flicked his finger, unleashing a burst of energy that sent Jun Linjian flying uncontrollably at a speed as fast as a shooting star.
"You're such a filial son!!!"
Jun Linjian's voice grew fainter and fainter in the sky, transforming into a shooting star that disappeared into the heavens, impossible to detect.
Quan Ji: "..."
Why do I suddenly feel that Lan is a bit scary?
She turned to look at Jun Chenlan: "Is your father alright?"
Jun Chenlan nodded: "It's nothing, this isn't the first time."
Quan Ji: "..."
What should I do? Does her friend Lan have some strange fetishes that she doesn't know about? What if he treats her, this delicate flower, like that too? Wouldn't she be in a terrible situation?
hiss--
Terrifying!
However, as if he could hear what Quan Ji was thinking, Jun Chenlan smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will never do that to you."
Quan Ji blinked: "How did you know what I was thinking?"
Jun Chenlan chuckled lightly, "It's all written on their faces."
Quan Ji raised an eyebrow: "Is it that obvious?"
Jun Chenlan nodded honestly: "Yes."
"If you say so, then so be it."
Quan Ji stretched and then lazily looked at Jun Chenlan: "Friend Lan, why don't you call him Father Emperor, but His Majesty?"
Jun Chenlan stared at Quan Ji, merely smiling in response to the question: "Want to know?"
Quan Ji nodded; she also wanted to know everything about Lan's friend.
However, Jun Chenlan didn't tell her, but instead changed the subject and asked her, "Where to next?"
Seeing that Jun Chenlan did not answer her question directly, Quan Ji naturally understood that he had his own reasons and did not want to pry into the matter, as that would be pointless.
She continued Jun Chenlan's topic: "Didn't I promise you? I'd go on a date with you in Xinmeng Empire."
Jun Chenlan pursed his lips and asked worriedly, "Is the Holy Glory Empire going to abandon it?"
Quan Ji turned around, glanced at the exit of the altar where no one had come out, and her eyes held a complex emotion that was hard to describe.
She has done enough for this empire; she can protect it—but she cannot guarantee that it can protect itself.
If it cannot protect itself, the Holy Empire will likely suffer the same fate as the Wish Tribe—it will be destroyed and reduced to dust if it relaxes its vigilance even slightly and leaves.
That's not good for the Holy Empire.
She sighed and smiled, "Young eagles always have to learn to fly. I can't protect them forever, can I? They need a war without me. I'm willing to take the gamble."
Jun Chenlan hummed in agreement and said, "But you also need to think this through. The Holy Glory Empire is currently in a precarious situation, and the enemies it will face next are stronger than ever before. Can they really withstand the pressure of growing up under your protection?"
Quan Ji understood what Jun Chenlan wanted to say.
Although the Holy Glory Empire has been promoted to a fourth-level empire and has all the necessary conditions, all of these conditions were brought about by Quan Ji. They are all flowers in a greenhouse and may not be able to withstand the storms.
They have the ability, but they lack experience and maturity.
They have experience in fighting, but lack the skills to fight.
Just like how Princess Quan was able to defeat stronger opponents through various skills and methods.
Even the Holy Empire, which has no foundation, may be suppressed by the weak.
A gust of wind lifted Quan Ji's hair. Her short hair, which had barely reached her neck when she took her vow, had now grown to her hips. As the wind tossed it, she looked as beautiful as a deity singing praises to all living beings, with a faint smile on her face.
"If we can't even resist this, then the Holy Glory Empire truly deserves to be destroyed... After all, the further down we go, the more powerful the Holy Glory Empire will encounter as I follow it."
"A fifth-level empire... Gods, if we don't give them a chance to grow, they'll truly reveal their true colors."
Jun Chenlan nodded, his gaze fixed on Quan Ji. He realized that Quan Ji was truly a girl full of shining qualities, the kind that made it impossible to look away.
She is confident and strong. She is just a little girl who needs to be coaxed, but at this age she has shouldered the heavy responsibility of a country.
Not only did they shoulder the responsibility, but they did it in an unprecedented way, a feat that even becoming a legend on the Noah's Ark wouldn't be enough to describe.
She is intelligent and quick-witted, and what is most unbelievable is that Kwon Ji can handle all kinds of problems with ease.
The simplest example is what happened just now—if it were any other ruler in the Holy Glory Empire, it would be best if he hadn't been blinded by the joy of victory, let alone someone like Quan Ji who remained clear-headed and understood what was most important to do at this time.
Giving the Holy Empire time to grow is an extremely wise approach.
Thinking about it, Jun Chenlan also had a smile on his lips.
No wonder she was the girl he fell for at first sight.
Quan Ji realized that Jun Chenlan was looking at her, so she looked up at him, smiled, and asked in a seductive tone, "Why are you staring at me?"
Jun Chenlan smiled again: "You're good-looking."
Quan Ji patted Jun Chenlan on the shoulder: "It's okay, no matter how handsome he is, he's still yours."
Jun Chenlan blushed, and her ears burned.
"Then...shall we set off for the Heart Dream Empire now?"
Quan Ji stretched again.
"It's a good time to give myself a break."
Jun Chenlan agreed with Quan Ji: "You really should get some rest."
Princess Quan raised her eyes, her eyes full of laughter:
"So, my friend Lan, get ready so that I can enjoy this date to the fullest."
Jun Chenlan was taken aback at first, then her already flushed face turned several shades redder, and her ears became burning hot.
Yes, it will.
Quan Ji loves seeing Jun Chenlan look so embarrassed; it's so cute.
"Let's go, let's set off!"
Jun Chenlan immediately summoned Zhuiyun.
In the sky, a stunning unicorn spread its wings and descended like an angel.
Quan Ji looked up at the enormous creature and said with a smile, "I also want to have a mount like this. It's so beautiful."
Jun Chenlan pursed her lips, "Zhuiyun also likes you very much, if you like..."
Before he could finish speaking, Quan Ji interrupted him.
"No, I, Quan, would never steal what others love. I'll catch one myself when I have time; it'll be even more beautiful and powerful than Zhuiyun!"
Jun Chenlan looked at Quan Ji, feeling a sweet feeling that he couldn't quite describe.
Because he knew that Princess Quan had always been fond of doing immoral things like stealing bamboo shoots, but she was completely moral towards him alone.
