The banquet ended quickly, and everyone discussed the future. Xuan Yuanxiao listened from the side, but her mind was a bit confused and she didn't understand much. The words of the Ninth Elder kept echoing in her mind: she would become the Queen in the future. Qi Yu did not deny it. In addition, Xuan Yuanying kept mentioning in her ear that when she grew up, she could become his mother.
Only through continuous effort could she possibly stand beside him. At this moment, sweet images of the three of them together flashed through Xuan Yuanxiao's mind, making her even more determined. She needed to work even harder to become a stronger person.
After the banquet, Qi Yu took Xuan Yuan Ying's hand and waited for Xuan Yuan Xiao. "Let's go back together, Xiao Xiao." His voice was extremely gentle. Xuan Yuan Xiao was flattered and nodded softly, "Yes, Your Majesty." Then she followed Xuan Yuan Ying.
The three of them returned to their bedchamber together. Xuan Yuanxiao became increasingly nervous. The king hadn't been there before, but now she was filled with anticipation, her mind filled with strange thoughts. Perhaps in the future, she might actually be destined to marry him.
Upon arriving at the bedchamber, Qi Yu sat in a chair, his hand resting on the back, looking at Xuan Yuanxiao with exceptional tenderness. "Xiao Xiao, it's been a long time. How's your martial arts training going? Have the servants been bullying you?" It was a very ordinary question. Standing before him, Xuan Yuanxiao listened to his voice, which flowed like a mountain spring, and suddenly felt somewhat at a loss. "Master, I'm practicing. I practice Tai Chi and Krav Maga day and night, and I also carry stones up the mountain to improve my physical strength. But I can't use my spiritual power; I can only train my physical strength. I'm sorry to disappoint Your Majesty." Xuan Yuanxiao's voice trailed off with a hint of disappointment.
Qi Yu felt happy after hearing this. Only she knew about Krav Maga and Tai Chi. She was so young. It was a pity that she was so young.
"I'm not disappointed. You've already tried your best. How old is Xiaoxiao this year?" Qi Yu looked at the small body with boundless affection. How long would it take to raise her? "I'm nineteen years old this year, but I've never grown up. I still look like a child. I've only recently regained some of my senses. Before that, my mind was always foggy." Xuan Yuanxiao was a little embarrassed as she spoke. Qi Yu was even happier after hearing this. It was just like a prophecy. She had other bodies and souls, and now that the souls were combined, she should be able to grow up properly.
"Put your hand in mine, and I'll check the state of your soul." Qi Yu extended his hand in front of him. Xuan Yuan Xiao tremblingly reached out her hand, somewhat embarrassed. This was the noble king; was she really going to place her hand on him? Before she could hesitate, Qi Yu gave her an urging look, and Xuan Yuan Xiao immediately placed her hand on his. The moment their hands met, a stark contrast appeared between his large and small hands; Xuan Yuan Xiao's small hand could only rest on his palm.
"Don't be afraid, I'm starting." Qi Yu used some of his divine sense to directly probe her body. A large door bound with iron chains appeared in front of him. Qi Yu pushed the door open and probed deeper. Along the way, there were endless chains. He kept probing deeper and finally saw countless iron chains in the center, binding a person. Her hands were surrounded by countless iron chains, her legs were also bound, and even her neck was bound by iron chains. It was Li Xiaoxiao. The face was even more beautiful than Li Xiaoxiao's. It was very delicate and fair, almost transparent. Her black hair reached her waist, and she had a hot figure. She was completely naked, but there was black mist around her. Her face had a somewhat broken beauty, but the aura she exuded was extremely imposing. She looked very powerful. She just closed her eyes. Her beauty was breathtaking. Countless black energies formed snake shapes around her.
Qi Yu was almost stunned. The snakes immediately attacked him upon discovering his presence. In order not to harm his beloved, Qi Yu immediately withdrew from the soul probe.
After exiting, he was in a daze. She was the most beautiful person he had ever seen, even more beautiful than Wu Shiyao. So this is what Xiaoxiao is like.
"Father, how is it going?" Xuan Yuan Ying called out anxiously from the side. Qi Yu then came to his senses and shook his head. "It's done." Xuan Yuan Xiao hurriedly withdrew her hand. Just now, she had become very strange and couldn't feel anything.
