The Psychic Girl

"I'll go with you!"

She said it again, her eyes and tone more determined.

After that night, although Xia Xi was unwilling to have any contact with Yan Tianming again, she did not want to give Yan Tianming an excuse to hurt the Ye family because of this incident, nor did she want to see Zi Ni and her brother in a tense confrontation.

Xia Xi has been busy these days. She has read through all the books about psychics in the library of Yanjiabao.

Only with Yan Tianming would she have the chance to see Sai Ya again.

Perhaps, only Sai Ya can explain to her the reason why she appeared in this strange world.

"Xi'er?..."

Because of Xia Xi's answer, Yan Zini grabbed her hand, looked at her with a puzzled look, and was reluctant to let go of her fingers.

He didn't understand why Xia Xi was still willing to go with Yan Tianming.

Just like he didn't understand why Xia Xi ran to Yan Tianming's room by herself that night.

But he believed that Xia Xi did not love Yan Tianming now.

Just as he was sure that she didn't love him.

"I'll be back soon, just wait for me!"

The two star stone earrings on her ears swayed slightly, emitting a soothing glimmer.

Xia Xi leaned over and ruffled his originally neat hair, as if to interrupt his troubled thoughts.

The action was rough, but it felt very gentle.

Looking at Xia Xi's affirmative eyes, he finally let go.

The distant view from the stars, although far away, has crossed the long barriers of time and space and remains unchanged forever.

We rode along the road guarded by the imperial guards.

The hunting ground behind the palace, which was usually deserted, was now crowded with people.

The grand hall in the entire hunting ground was decorated very spectacularly, with princes, ministers, concubines and ladies from all walks of life seated in it.

The war with Sanshou and Xiliang is about to break out.

The 142nd birthday of the Lord of Dongli was not as lavish as in previous years, but it was still lively.

The old king Dongye Mu, who was sitting on the highest seat, was scanning the seats in the conference hall below, as if looking for something.

Because of the secret struggle between the Crown Prince and Prince Liang, the old king's power is no longer as stable as before.

One is his narrow-minded son, and the other is his sinister and cunning younger brother.

In front of his relatives, the old ruler, who had mediocre aptitude in cultivation but had the talent to govern a country, was caught in a dilemma.

In the past few months, the old king's temples have been stained with a few more white hairs.

Xia Xi peeked at the old king from the lower seat.

Although he has many wrinkles on his forehead and cheeks, his handsome facial features show that he was also a handsome boy when he was young.

Finally, the old king, who had remained silent in the meeting, spoke.

"Yan Xiu...he didn't come?"

Seeing the old king's expectant look, Yan Tianming immediately stood up and explained.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. My foster father has been too worried about the affairs in the castle recently and has been ill. However, I have brought the birthday gift he prepared for Your Majesty."

As he spoke, a man in palace robes handed over an exquisite slingshot made of fish bones and tiger tendons.

This looks more like a gift for a child than a gift from a king.

"This, this gift is too shabby. How can Lord Yan be such a stingy person?"

"What do you know? Yan Xiu and His Majesty are close friends and he knows His Majesty's temperament best."

The people underground were talking a lot, but the old king seemed to hear nothing and stroked the slingshot in his hand lovingly.

"Tell him when you go back that I like it very much.

His birthday will be next month, so I have to prepare a good gift for him."

Yan Tianming knelt down and saluted, nodded in agreement, and then returned to the seat next to Xia Xi.

"Your Majesty, it's not just Lord Yan who's here. Why isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here?"

A middle-aged man in official uniform stood up and reminded, with a sly smile on his face as if he was watching a show.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has prepared a special gift for your birthday, and it will be here soon!"

When Tutor Li saw someone making trouble, he immediately stood up to defend the prince.

Everyone's attention was drawn to it.

On the field, the old king, who should have been the protagonist today, watched the confrontation in front of him but did not stop it.

Only Xia Xi accidentally heard the old man sighing softly.

At this time, a seductively dressed concubine noticed Xia Xi beside Yan Tianming.

In order to smooth things over, he deliberately diverted everyone's attention and said.

"Ah! I never noticed, this must be Tianming's newlywed wife! Which girl is so popular with Tianming? Even Qingling, the most beautiful girl in Dongli, can't compare to her?"

Higashino Kiyomi was chatting with several favored concubines.

After hearing this, he took the time to glance in the direction of Xia Xi.

After all, with her stunning beauty, all the women present, even Xia Xi, looked inferior.

"You are Tianming's wife, a lovely and smart girl! Tianming, you must cherish her!"

The old king also noticed Xia Xi beside Yan Tianming, and looked at her with a gentle and kind smile like a grandfather.

"Brother, you are dazzled, this new lady doesn't have any spiritual energy around her body, she is just an ordinary person who is completely incapable of spiritual practice!

But it's okay, a woman! Just stay at home and take care of her husband and children! Unlike me, Qing Ling, who was born with a heavenly spiritual bone and shoulders the mission of a Dongli practitioner!"

King Liang, who answered the question, spoke with disdain and provocation in his tone, as if he was saying.

I thought you refused the marriage proposal because you found some outstanding woman to be your wife. Compared with my daughter Qing Ling, this is really disgusting!

"Hey! Wasn't Qing Ling also discovered to have spiritual powers when she was seven years old? I can see that this girl has quite spiritual energy in her eyes."

After hearing what the old king said, King Liang had no choice but to refute him. He snorted coldly and returned to his seat.

Originally, King Liang intended to marry Princess Qingling to Yan Tianming and form an alliance with Yanjiabao in order to expand his power.

Unexpectedly, because Yan Tianming got married first, they missed this wish.

It is already unfair for the dignified Princess Dongli, the number one female cultivator in Dongli, to marry an adopted son. If he is a second wife, wouldn't she be laughed at by the whole world?

Not to mention that King Liang was unwilling, even given Dongye Qingling's arrogant personality, it would be impossible for her to do so.

In fact, Higashino Kiyomizu does not look like an adopted son without legitimate bloodline.

If he wasn't a cultivator with heavenly spiritual bones like himself, he wouldn't even look at it.

But he refused marriage proposals several times and found an ordinary woman whom she despised the most, which made Qing Ling very angry.

King Liang originally thought of letting Yan Zini, the real young master of the Yan family, propose marriage.

But Yan Zini had been paralyzed for many years and was just an ordinary person who could not practice cultivation.

Not to mention that Higashino Kiyomi is the group leader's daughter, even ordinary people may not be willing to do so.

As a result, the marriage was aborted, and the idea of ​​forming an alliance with Yanjiabao had to be put on hold for the time being.

As the subject of discussion, Xia Xi remained kneeling cross-legged on her seat.

This eating posture was really torture. Her feet were numb, and it was difficult for her to stand up. She felt very uncomfortable watching the people in front of her talking about her.
