Looking at the green shoots before him, Qi Boqi smiled.
His smile was extremely bright and sunny, and he also seemed relieved.
Qinghe smiled too, a smile that Huang Boqi had once described in ten words.
Gentle as water, with a smile as sweet as sugar.
She grew up alongside him, and when she could barely manage to put two small buns on her head, she clumsily served him tea and water.
Just like she always said, I am her personal maid.
He would frown every time he saw her clumsy, and would even snatch the things from her hands and scold her.
That's so stupid, I'll do it myself.
He was fierce, but she was smiling.
Because he was protecting her and never treated her as a maid.
No maid could eat at the same table as the Crown Prince, let alone eat more than him.
Because he said, "Eat more fat for me, I don't like wheat seedlings that are dark, skinny, and always crying."
So she never cried again after becoming his maid, because he forbade it.
Apart from him, no one dared to bully the clumsy wheat seedling that followed behind him, not even Leng Qiuyue later.
Therefore, the days spent by his side were always the happiest and most comfortable times for her.
Even after all that has happened, nothing has changed, and nothing will change.
"It's good that you're back."
He Boqi only said four words, but they made Qinghe laugh even more. What made her even happier was He Boqi's next sentence.
I'm hungry.
These three words, though more powerful than a thousand, are the best welcome back to her.
Nothing has changed. You are the wheat seedling, the green shoot, and the person I trust and value the most.
Qinghe's cooking is different from Youli's light and refreshing dishes, and even more different from the meat and bone dishes of the thirty-year-old, because she cooks in a way that is unique to the Marquis's mansion.
Army cooking stove.
It's not fancy or particularly delicious, but it's a familiar taste from my childhood.
She would still serve him a large bowl of rice, and then they would sit around the simple stove made of two stones and eat heartily together.
But this time, he ate more.
Another difference from before is that this time she was the one talking, and he was listening quietly.
After finishing the meal, Xiao Boqi learned about Qinghe's entire experience. Xiao Daer was right; the thatched hut on the island in the middle of the lake was the bridal sedan chair that was built with the Eye of Heaven.
The secret realm-like space inside the thatched hut was created using the Eye of Heaven, and Qinghe brought information that Daer didn't know.
The Eye of Heaven can reveal the true form of the Heavenly Dao.
The Eye of Heaven was created by the Heavenly Dao itself. Although the Book of Stealing Heaven stole a large amount of the Heavenly Dao's power, Huang Boqi was also someone who seized several great fortunes created by the Heavenly Dao.
But what exactly is the Way of Heaven? Is it a person or some other form? No one can say for sure, because no one has ever seen it.
However, by observing the residual aura on the Eye of Heaven, one can slowly deduce the location of the true form of Heaven, but this process is very dangerous.
Because the Heavenly Dao can also deduce their existence through the aura on the Heavenly Dao Eye, it is not feasible before absolute strength is achieved.
Judging from the events at the Jade Spirit Palace Secret Realm, it can be inferred that the alien race had already begun a new plan after their last defeat.
This major defeat in the territory of Jade Spirit Palace may very well accelerate the actions of the alien races.
"The alien races have been hiding in the shadows, which puts us at a disadvantage. So what we need to do now is to force these filthy things into the open."
"It has been confirmed that the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty has deep ties with the alien races, so let's start by targeting the Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty."
After speaking, Yi Boqi looked at Qinghe.
“If I hadn’t gone to Xuanwu Divine Land halfway through, the plan against Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty would have already begun. Now that I have your Jade Spirit Palace, my plan will be able to proceed more smoothly.”
"But there's something I need to discuss with you."
As he spoke, Huang Boqi smiled at Qinghe with a slightly unnatural expression.
Qinghe had never seen Qiboqi like this before, so she laughed along with him.
"Compared to the super powers of the Imperial Land, Daqi is far less resource-rich and lacks other resources. The Jade Spirit Palace territory is home to the richest jade marrow veins in the Imperial Land's Spirit Realm, therefore..."
To be honest, Xiao Boqi was indeed a little hesitant to speak.
Things are different now. In the past, whatever Daqi needed, his most effective method was to seize it, just like taking away the very foundation of its fortune and bringing it back to Daqi.
When he learned that Jade Spirit Palace was the power with the most Jade Marrow in the Imperial Land Spirit Realm, he had already begun planning how to seize it.
Sending Xiao Jiu and Qin Feng to the Jade Spirit Palace territory was to pave the way for this objective, but things are different now.
Jade Spirit Palace is Qinghe's territory. No matter how shameless Xiaoboqi is, he wouldn't do something like stealing from his own people.
After pouring a cup of tea for Qi Boqi, Qinghe pursed her lips and said to him.
"Although I am now the de facto controller of Jade Spirit Palace, and although there are a large number of spirit crystal and jade marrow mines within Jade Spirit Palace, it is impossible to explain to the people in the sect that I would just give them away so casually."
These words made Yi Boqi smile awkwardly. Qinghe was right. On the contrary, if Qinghe asked him for Daqi's military equipment, he couldn't just give it away without discussing it with her.
Since Jade Spirit Palace is not an option, we can only focus all our efforts on the territory of Yunqin Heavenly Dynasty.
But just then, Qinghe's voice rang out again.
"unless....."
Qinghe's hesitation brought Yiboqi back to his senses. When he looked up, he saw Qinghe's very serious face, which surprised him.
"Unless the Jade Spirit Palace joins Daqi and becomes a sect under Daqi, then the Jade Spirit Palace's spirit crystals and jade marrow will become Daqi's spirit crystals and jade marrow."
As he spoke, he could no longer maintain the seriousness on his face and burst into laughter.
"If you don't let Jade Spirit Palace join Daqi, you won't get a single spirit crystal or jade marrow. I'm very powerful now, and I'm not afraid of anyone trying to take it from me."
Qinghe's words made Yiboqi laugh out loud. Then, just like when they were children, he tucked a strand of her long hair that fell across her forehead behind her ear and patted her head.
"Will it be difficult?"
Daqi is not yet a super power, nor does it have the foundation of one. Even if all the ancestors of the Jade Spirit Secret Realm have died, the Jade Spirit Palace is still among the super powers because of Qinghe.
The difficulty of getting a super power that has existed for ten thousand years to join Daqi is unimaginable.
He was pleasantly surprised, but he didn't want Qinghe to be caught in a dilemma, or even turn against the sect. If that were the case, he would rather have a cooperative relationship with the Jade Spirit Palace.
"If you connect the spatial passage to the Jade Spirit Palace, then it won't be difficult."
Her answer was incomprehensible to others, but it was to Qi Boqi.
Because Qinghe answered him using his own way of speaking.
This is also how she tells Ye Boqi, "I am your Qinghe, so Qinghe's Jade Spirit Palace is your Jade Spirit Palace."
Interestingly, Qinghe didn't tell him that she had already met with Thirty-Three.
Through Qinghe's words, Xiaoboqi also remembered that guy named Sheng Lingxiao.
The appearance of this guy is destined to bring endless surprises to Xiao Boqi.
