Alan grabbed Xia Ji's hand and wanted to take her away, but Xia Ji shook her head and pulled her hand back.

"No, I won't go with you."

Allen was startled, because he had never expected Xia Ji to refuse:

"Why? Don't you know the truth yet? Or do you love him that much?

Sister Xia Ji, wake up! He is no longer the same His Highness Rhodes as before!"

"I know. I know it better than anyone. But what I want is never the freedom to hide here and there as you say."

Allen's suggestion was good, but once they eloped, they would be terrified and afraid of being discovered by Rhode's men. It would be like they would never see the light of day again.

Does such freedom really make sense?

Why can't she live openly in the sunshine and do what she wants without any restrictions?

Even though the road ahead might require a lot of price, she would never escape, let alone choose to elope with Allen at this time.

Allen didn't understand, but Xia Ji didn't say anything more. She kissed the man's handsome face:

"Anyway, thank you for thinking of me at this moment.

Alan, no matter what I do, you will always love me and stand by me, right?"

"Of course."

There was no need to ask why, Allen immediately returned the kiss and nodded without hesitation:

"No matter what happens, I will support Sister Xia Ji and always stand behind you!"

Xia Ji raised the corners of her lips, she gently touched Alan's furry hair and said:

"Go back. Remember to come on time tomorrow to watch my brother and I's wedding ceremony. Then, you will know what I mean by what I said today."

Alan looked at her eyes deeply, subconsciously rubbed his face against her palm, and soon climbed out the window and left like a cat without disturbing anyone.

She was still a little sleepy and tired, but after what happened to Allen, Xia Ji looked at the sky outside which was about to get brighter, and asked someone to come in and help her get up and dress.

She changed her previous charming peach-colored makeup and instead drew a fiery red flower between her eyebrows and a more gorgeous and deep black eyeliner.

Looking at the gorgeous yet dignified beauty in the mirror, Xia Ji curled her lips:

"Today is a grand day, and it really deserves the most gorgeous makeup and clothes to match it."

So when Xia Ji arrived outside the palace wearing the most gorgeous dress, Rhode was stunned at first, and then couldn't help but admire:

"Sister, you look so beautiful in this outfit."

Originally, this dress should be red on the outside and black on the inside, but Xia Ji wore the red on the inside today, with only some corners showing. The black outer robe set off the beauty's jade-like skin, and it also brought a noble and gorgeous temperament.

Rhode kissed her forehead, raised his lips happily, and came with her to the altar outside the Tukas Palace.

For thousands of years, all important ceremonies of the Tukas royal family were held on the altar.

The altar was tall and spacious, surrounded by countless onlookers and invited nobles, who all came to witness this grand wedding ceremony.

However, unlike before when many royal families liked to broadcast their celebrations live in front of everyone, this time Rhodes only invited the nobles to watch the ceremony and did not broadcast it live.

"Sister, you are so beautiful. I really don't want those male beasts to see your face. You only belong to me."

Rhode gently hugged Xia Ji and explained. Xia Ji did not answer, but smiled silently. She walked hand in hand with him along the red carpet and toward the altar.

There were clusters of flowers all along the way, and even the red carpet was covered with layers of fragrant petals. Beside them were clusters of flowers and trees made of gold and silver, the air was filled with the sweet smell of champagne, and there were cheers and songs of celebration from the noble guests.

Xia Ji took a quick glance and soon saw Honossen, who was chained and forced to come to visit the wedding, and Alan, who was sitting nearby and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Her eyes darkened and she asked again:

“Brother, can’t you really let Huo Nuo Sen go?”

"Sister, you should know my answer. On the wedding day, please don't say such spoiling words, okay?"

"What about Alan? He seems to like me very much. Brother, will you hurt him out of jealousy in the future?"

"I'll send him to the border, far away from us."

"what about me?"

When she was about to climb to the top of the altar, Xia Ji suddenly stopped. She looked at the tall man beside her and asked:

"If I make you unhappy, what are you going to do to me?

Will you imprison me in the palace, chain me to my bed, and wait for me to sing for you day and night? Or will you banish or kill me like you did to them if you no longer love me?

What am I in your heart? "

"Sister, why do you ask that?"

Rhode frowned in confusion, attributing Xia Ji's question to the nervousness and anxiety of a young girl getting married. He kissed Xia Ji's slender fingers and replied:

"Sister, you never know how important you are in my heart!

If you want to be a queen and want power above everyone else, I can give them to you as long as you belong to me forever and stay by my side.

Because you are everything to me!

You are like my sunshine and air, just as mermaids cannot live without water. "

After hearing this, Xia Ji pursed her lips and said nothing. She did not respond to the man's affection. Instead, she lifted her skirt and climbed onto the high altar before him. She looked at him and said:

"Brother, you never knew how deeply I loved you.

But now, I don’t want to be everything to you.”

To be everything to him is like a fish cannot live without water. The two of them are destined to stay together for the rest of their lives, close and inseparable.

However, this is not the love she wants.

She wanted the two of them to love each other sweetly, but have their own lives. She could go wherever she wanted and have the freedom to refuse him from mating and giving birth.

However, she would never be able to get all this from her brother.

"Brother, I'm afraid you will never understand or comprehend what I want.

Therefore, today, between you and me, only one of us can survive!"

Suddenly, a sword light flashed across the sky.

In the next moment, a sharp sword appeared in the hand of the beautiful woman who was supposed to be holding flowers, and the tip of the sword pointed straight at the man's heart.

Xia Ji spoke again:

"Brother, I remember everything now. I am the biological daughter of our father. Therefore, between you and me, only the one who survives can become the new king of Tukas!"
