The civilization of the Star Abyss Empire is extremely prosperous. People are no longer satisfied with just being well-fed and watered. Various forms of entertainment have emerged, and even cultural customs are exceptionally rich.
For example, in the Star Abyss Empire, when a knight gives his sword to a girl, it means he is giving his life to her and will protect her with his own.
Because—the meaning of a knight is to protect.
Quan Ji naturally knew about this, but she never expected Jun Chenlan to give her his Xingyuan Sword. If she didn't accept it now, it would be a rejection of Jun Chenlan's feelings.
"Then thank you, Marshal Jun. I will keep this sword for you for the time being."
She took the Star Abyss Sword, and as she touched the hilt, her small hand inadvertently covered Jun Chenlan's large hand.
The other person's body temperature was warm, like a pure and flawless piece of jade, which felt wonderful and made one want to touch it more.
Jun Chenlan was shy. He had never touched a girl in his life. The first time he touched a girl was with whom he was engaged and with whom he had feelings. The electric current that was generated at that moment was tingling and gave him a strange feeling.
Not bad.
His hand trembled.
Quan Ji smiled.
I like men who can kill enemies on the battlefield and are very cute in private.
She'll behave like a dutiful wife, and won't let her stray.
Quan Ji put the Xingyuan Sword into the sword box at her waist.
She knew this sword was one of the world's finest weapons, but for now, it could only serve as a token and could not be used.
But it's no big deal; she'll get something better soon enough.
The two exchanged tokens of their love, which could be considered as fulfilling their engagement on a certain level, and they were just waiting to get married.
At this moment, Quan Qingchi poked his head out from the side, looking angry.
"Sis, why are you talking to him and not me? I'm your brother, how can you forget your brother when you have a man? I don't think this is right, and I'm not happy."
Quan Ji: "...?" Who are you?
Quan Qingchi mocked Quan Ji again: "Let me tell you, men are all big pigs, unreliable. You're all lovey-dovey with someone now, but if they dump you later, you'll only be able to cry to your brother. So, you should take care of your brother more. I can still give you a shoulder to lean on, right?"
This guy talks a lot, speaks very fast, has clear logic, and is a bit silly.
As he was speaking, Jun Chenlan, who was behind him, kicked him directly.
Quan Qingchi was kicked to the ground like a dog face down. He turned his head, furious: "How could you treat your brother-in-law like this? You...you don't want to live anymore?"
Jun Chenlan's face darkened. "I couldn't help it."
Quan Ji looked at the scene, curled her lips into a smile, and seemed to amaze the whole world, so beautiful that the world was left with only her striking beauty.
It's hard not to be tempted by it.
Jun Chenlan thought of a poem from the Xingyuan Empire: "Meeting You," which says that if one encounters a face as beautiful as a fairy, one's heart will be moved and nothing else will come of it.
It means that if you find a girl whose smile makes you feel that it is comparable to all the beauty in the world, then that is the girl who moves your heart, and from then on, it will be hard for you to let go of anyone else in your heart.
Jun Chenlan felt that Quan Ji was the one he was attracted to.
He looked at Quan Ji quietly.
The eyelashes under her eyes were particularly beautiful. She lowered her eyes and said to Quan Qingchi, "Speak, what do you want to tell me?"
Quan Qingchi raised his head and blinked like a golden retriever.
"I want to join the army, and I want to protect our sacred land."
