"My dear Imperial Advisor, what are you doing here again?" Ji Jiuying said speechlessly. Doesn't this man have any work to do?
"What? Little Jiu'er doesn't welcome me? I've brought delicious spiritual food with me~" A food box appeared out of thin air in Gong Mingyue's hand.
Ji Jiuying rolled her eyes. This man even knew how to use spiritual food to tempt her!
But how did this man know she hadn't eaten dinner? Was he some kind of mind reader? She did seem a little hungry, though.
"Speak, what brings you here?" Ji Jiuying unceremoniously took the food box, placed it on the table, and began to eat.
And you know what? These are all her favorite dishes, and they taste pretty good too.
"Little Jiu'er is really clever, guessing my purpose so quickly." Gong Mingyue chuckled.
"You wouldn't come here without a reason, so speak."
"Someone from the palace came today. The emperor bestowed upon you the title of Princess Anping. There will be a banquet in the palace tomorrow. If you don't want to go, I can help you decline." Gong Mingming played with her hair.
Why did the emperor suddenly bestow upon her the title of princess? However, it is indeed somewhat inconvenient for her to lack a proper status now.
"Go, why don't you go?"
Besides, she can't just hide in the Imperial Preceptor's mansion forever.
"Then I will accompany you tomorrow."
"I refuse!" Ji Jiuying gave him a disdainful look.
She was truly the first person to dare to look down on the Imperial Advisor.
"Why?"
"Great Imperial Advisor, you're so popular, I'm afraid I'll be killed by the glares from those women!" Ji Jiuying said speechlessly.
Suddenly, Ji Jiuying sensed something and pulled Gong Ming into the space.
The entire space was filled with a fiery red light, and Ji Jiuying discovered that the light was emanating from Xiao Huang'er.
Little Phoenix has been in this state for several days now. Is she about to wake up? Ji Jiuying looked at Little Phoenix in the firelight with anticipation.
"Gong Mingyue, do you know what's wrong with Xiaohuang'er?"
Has she trusted him that much already?
Gong Mingyue looked at her profile and said, "It's evolving. Once it has absorbed all this red light, it will succeed, and your fire element will also increase."
“Little Jiu’er, after this evolution, it will fully manifest its true form. Unless absolutely necessary, do not let it appear in front of the world, unless it can control the size and appearance of its true form on its own, understand?” Gong Mingyue said.
"The matter of the space must not be revealed to a third person other than myself."
Her possession of the magical beast had already put her in the spotlight. Even if people in the higher realms didn't know she was Feng Lan's daughter, they would still be drawn to the magical beast.
Not to mention space itself; a space capable of carrying all things is itself a defying nature.
"I know, am I that stupid?" How could she not understand what he was saying?
Last time in the secret realm, she exposed herself to him in a moment of panic, and she regretted it, but at the same time she was afraid.
Fortunately, he never harbored any greed; his eyes were filled with worry for her.
Ji Jiuying had no idea when she started to trust Gong Mingyue so much.
From the moment Gong Mingyue entered the space, Xie Huo hid in the Heavenly Punishment Manual, pretending to be dead, while the little boy who usually guarded Xiao Huang'er had disappeared to some corner.
“Little Jiu’er is naturally the smartest person.” Gong Mingyue lowered his head and buried his face in her shoulder, taking a long breath.
Gong Mingyue then discovered the Blue Lotus and Soul-Nourishing Wood in the courtyard, as well as various spiritual herbs and fruits.
Ji Jiuying noticed something was wrong with him and broke free from his embrace. "You know him?"
"Hmm~ Blue Lotus, Soul-Nourishing Wood."
"Did Xiao Jiu'er plant all of these?" Gong Mingyue pointed to the medicinal herbs on the ground.
"That's right~ The spiritual herbs grown in this space are much better than those outside, so in the future, if you have any thousand-year-old He Shou Wu, thousand-year-old Lingzhi, thousand-year-old snow lotus or anything like that, you can bring them here and I'll help you grow them~ I only need to charge a little bit of interest."
Upon hearing this, Gong Mingyue was speechless. This guy was such a money-grubber. But since he liked it, he would just rob some of Si Yu's spiritual herbs later.
Si Yu, who was far away, sneezed and thought to herself, "Who is thinking of me?"
Ji Jiuying pulled Gong Mingyue to the tree, dug up a bottle of wine and handed it to Gong Mingyue, "This is my own brewed spirit wine, you can try it."
Gong Mingyue looked at her expectantly, took the wine bottle and took a few sips. After drinking the wine, Gong Mingyue felt his body was full of spiritual energy, and he felt much more refreshed. It was very different from the spiritual fruit wine he usually drank.
"How is it? Delicious, right?"
Mmm~ Delicious!
Ji Jiuying's lips curled up, her eyebrows curved, and her smile was as bright as cherry blossoms blooming in the morning sun, fragrant and beautiful as a dream.
Gong Mingyue snapped out of his daze and patted her head affectionately.
Ji Jiuying took Gong Mingyue's hand and led him to tour her space. Gong Mingyue was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Upon seeing the Heavenly Punishment Manual floating in the villa, he was stunned into silence. What was this? A divine artifact that even he had never seen before.
"This is the Heavenly Punishment Manual, an ancient divine artifact that records various spiritual techniques, spells, and divine elixirs..."
"How about that? Pretty impressive, right?"
Gong Mingyue was shocked, but he also felt that it was all arranged by fate, and that everything happened so coincidentally.
Including her (the current Ji Jiuying).
Everything that happened to her was too unbelievable and too perfect.
A soul transmigration, from a useless person to a genius, contracting divine beasts and mythical beasts, a space that contains all things in the world... Even Si Yu cannot see through her destiny.
All of this made Gong Ming feel that her background was an even bigger mystery, and it might all stem from her biological father...
“My wife is naturally amazing~” Gong Mingyue grasped her hand in return.
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying turned to look at him. She admitted that she was really attracted to his looks, and she didn't know when it started, but she no longer rejected his touch.
"Gong Mingyue, do you really like me?"
Gong Mingyue was taken aback. He hadn't expected her to ask him such a direct question. He looked at Ji Jiuying with his deep eyes and said seriously, "I said you are my destined one. Do you believe me?"
Ji Jiuying seemed to remember something and said seriously, "Gong Mingyue, what I want is one man for life. I will not share a husband with other women. If you can't do that, then don't do or say things that will cause misunderstandings in the future."
Gong Mingyue gently kissed Ji Jiuying's forehead. "I... I can do it. No woman other than you can get within three feet of me."
"You said it yourself. If I find out you lied to me and betrayed me, I'll make you regret it."
A smile involuntarily appeared on Gong Mingyue's lips as he looked at Ji Jiuying with surprise and delight, "Little Jiu'er, you... are you willing to..."
