"There's no need for such enthusiasm. If you insist that I accept it, how about we hold a banquet tonight to celebrate the victory of the Holy Glory Empire?"
Quan Ji's voice possessed a unique magic, making people want to hear more. Her charming smile captivated everyone.
"Great! Let's have a banquet!"
"Not only should we celebrate the Holy Glory Empire's victory over the Hedo Empire, but we should also celebrate the young lady's return. It's a double celebration, so a banquet would be perfect!"
"Hahaha! In that case, I'd better get ready early, otherwise it would be really embarrassing if I made a fool of myself at the banquet tonight. I'm off now!"
"A banquet is held as soon as the young lady returns, this is wonderful! Tonight I must be the most beautiful woman besides the young lady!"
The voices of the people were filled with joy and happiness, which was the most satisfying aspect of the Holy Empire for a long time.
Kwon Ji discovered that a leader with humanity truly earns the praise and love of the people.
In her past life, she was too cold and ruthless, so her people only felt fear, not respect, when they saw her.
It's even less likely that I would feel the same joy and surprise at her return, or shout out excitedly at her suggestion of hosting a banquet.
All of this made her feel that it was all worthwhile and fulfilling.
Just then, the sound of horses' hooves came, the sound was exceptionally beautiful and melodious, full of rhythm.
"Little sister Quan Ji! You're back!!!"
The boy's voice was full of excitement and joy. Quan Ji looked over there and saw Quan Qingchi, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
Her golden hair shone brilliantly in the sunlight.
Quan Qingchi has shed his former naivety. His face is still incredibly clean, but you can sense a different kind of murderous intent in that cleanliness, as if you could be devoured by him if you weren't careful.
He was dressed in fine clothes and rode a spirited horse, wearing golden armor. He had become an indispensable fighting force among the warriors of the Holy Glory Empire and was the dream god of countless girls in the Holy Glory Empire.
At this moment, his smile was extremely charming, his lips parted in a wide grin, as if he had encountered some great joy.
Quan Ji couldn't help but sigh in her heart: the boy who once didn't even dare to kill has finally grown up.
He had experienced countless wars and battles, and his demeanor exuded a mature and sophisticated air.
The horse stopped in front of Quan Ji, and he quickly dismounted and immediately hugged Quan Ji.
"Little sister, I miss you so much!"
His smile was extremely innocent, revealing a naivety that he hadn't shown to others in a long time.
Quan Ji naturally knew that he missed him, but she could also sense that Jun Chenlan beside her had begun to circulate his energy, ready to make a move at any moment.
She quickly pushed him away: "Thinking is one thing, but what do you mean by hugging me right away? Don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"
Quan Qingchi, who had been pushed away, felt very aggrieved. The tall man, who was over 1.8 meters tall, lowered his head and looked carefully at Quan Ji.
"I was just too excited to see you. Men and women shouldn't touch each other... but we're good siblings, what's wrong with a hug... it won't kill us."
Quan Ji: "..."
No, a hug won't kill me, but it might kill you.
And they're not even related by blood—although the bond is stronger than that between biological parents and children.
However, she couldn't be bothered to argue with the child.
She reached out to touch Quan Qingchi's blond hair to comfort the big blond dog, but to her surprise, the big blond dog dodged away.
He snorted: "Men and women should not touch each other!"
Everyone was both amused and exasperated by this lovable character.
Without saying a word, Quan Ji grabbed his shoulder and pulled him inside.
Where did Quan Qingchi get the strength to compete with Quan Ji? He was immediately pulled in front of Quan Ji and had his hair ruffled hard.
Quan Qingchi wanted to get angry, but didn't dare: "You...you...this isn't fair!"
Quan Ji bluntly stated, "If you want to be killed by your brother-in-law, just say so. There's no need to beat around the bush with me."
Upon hearing this, Quan Qingchi's gaze immediately fell upon Jun Chenlan.
The other party's expression was not varied, but you could clearly see the smugness on their face; they were really too arrogant!
That's absolutely outrageous!
"You think I'm afraid of you? This is dictatorship!"
Jun Chenlan said nothing, but silently a sword appeared in his hand, and a powerful aura was released towards Quan Qingchi alone.
Quan Qingchi suddenly felt his body become heavy and he was about to collapse.
A golden light flashed in Quan Ji's eyes, and the oppressive aura immediately dissipated, making her feel much more comfortable.
Quan Qingchi: "Little sister, you're the best. Let's find a new brother-in-law!"
Kwon Ji did not answer him.
I looked up.
Quan Ji only had eyes for Jun Chenlan, and she stood on tiptoe to pat his head and coax him: "Alright, alright, why are you bullying him like this? He's just a little idiot, just ignore him, okay?"
Quan Qingchi retorted, embarrassed and annoyed, "Where am I an idiot? I'm incredibly clever, okay?!"
Quan Ji rolled her eyes at Quan Qingchi, then continued to coax Jun Chenlan.
"Look, this is the kind of thing only an idiot would say. Any normal person would never say such a thing."
Quan Qingchi was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot.
He's your brother!
How could you be so heartless to him!
You are utterly depraved!
Jun Chenlan glanced at Quan Qingchi and chuckled contemptuously, as if declaring his sovereignty.
Quan Qingchi: "..."
asphyxia!
I was suffocating!
Modern-day disgusting couples!
I was really looking forward to meeting my little sister, but this is the kind of treatment I got? I lost all my joy at seeing her!
Everyone was at a loss for words, neither laughing nor crying.
Shen Wuyue said quietly, "Let's return to the Imperial Palace. We still need to see the others and let them know we're safe."
Quan Qingchi was fully revived: "Yeah, yeah, our eldest, second, and third brothers aren't in Shengyao right now. Your return was too sudden. You didn't send us any news at all. We sent a letter to the Xinmeng Empire, but who knew that the Xinmeng Empire had already changed dynasties and become the Mengzui Empire, and even became an ally of our Shengyao Empire. After hearing about this, we realized that life is truly unpredictable."
"Little sister, you are really amazing. You went to the Azure Academy, but the Azure Academy was destroyed. You went to the Heart Dream Empire, but the Heart Dream Empire underwent a dynastic change. Everywhere you went, something big happened. Later, you went to find the Elf Clan, but the Energy Pigeon could not find the Elf Clan, so you definitely did not receive the letter."
"But speaking of which, how come Priest Fengxi is here with you... and why does Priest Fengxi seem even more beautiful now?"
"Oh, right...you went to the Elven realm, your injuries should be healed by now, right? Wow! You're practically a god, that's amazing! No wonder you're so great!"
"Oh, right, and another thing, you elves probably haven't encountered situations like those at Azure Academy and the Dream Sin Empire, have you? After all, no one can really be that unlucky, right?"
