Li Xingyun, standing by, couldn't help but feel very surprised, thinking to himself: Li Xinghu's behavior today is really a bit abnormal! He has never been so low-key and smart on weekdays.

However, at this moment, several other princes expressed their complete disapproval. One of them declared, "This prince has no objection whatsoever!" Another chimed in, "Thirteenth brother, this victory is well-deserved. This prince is convinced!" The final prince quickly chimed in, "This prince is equally convinced by the outcome!" Suddenly, the potentially contentious and chaotic situation was easily resolved.

In reality, the princes were all as clear-eyed as a mirror. Regardless of whether they could defeat the powerful Li Xingyun, even if they did win, what benefits would they gain? Furthermore, if they insisted on causing trouble, they would probably only waste precious time. Rather than engaging in such a thankless task, it would be better to be tactful and adapt to the situation.

Seeing this, the Second Prince nodded with satisfaction. After slowly sweeping his eyes across the entire audience, he burst into laughter: "Haha... Since all the princes have no objection, then everyone can go back home and have a good rest tonight. Tomorrow morning, we will go to the imperial study together to continue the next round of competition!" After he finished speaking, the smile on his face became brighter, as if he had already foreseen the exciting plots that would happen next.

Li Xingyun stood up calmly with a smile on his face. After bowing to the people around him, he turned around and left without hesitation. His figure gradually walked away until he disappeared from everyone's sight.

If his memory was correct, then another important person had indeed arrived in Shenwu City today. According to the time calculation, this person must have arrived at their destination by now!

At this moment, Li Xingyun and his group rushed back to the Qin Palace. As soon as they stepped into the palace, they ran into Liu Ruyan, Bai Jie, A Lei and others who were about to leave.

Liu Ruyan looked at the returning Li Xingyun in surprise, wondering, "Hey, why are you back so early today? Did the competition end so quickly?"

It turned out that Liu Ruyan was too busy to go to the ring to watch the excitement, so she was unaware of what happened that day. However, she was full of confidence in Li Xingyun's ability. After all, in her mind, if even Li Xingyun couldn't win, then this competition was meaningless. It would be better for her to go home and rest early!

Hearing Liu Ruyan's question, Li Xingyun smiled and nodded, then asked in return: "Yes, the competition is over. Seeing how hurried you are, are you planning to go out of the city to meet my sister-in-law?" After some calculations, he knew in his heart that Liu Wumei should arrive in Shenwu City today.

When Liu Ruyan heard this, a happy smile immediately broke out on her face. She nodded slightly and replied, "Yes, my sister sent someone to deliver the news at full speed, saying that she would probably arrive at the north gate of Shenwu City in the evening. My sister rarely travels far, so as her younger sister, of course I have to go to greet her in person this time." Liu Ruyan was in a particularly good mood at the thought of soon being able to reunite with her sister whom she had not seen for a long time.

In addition, Li Xingyun was able to remember Liu Wumei's affairs even though he was so busy, which meant that he had her in his heart, and she was even happier!

"Well, since I caught up, it's okay to go together." Li Xingyun stretched. He had been sitting on the ring for most of the day, and his bones were almost rusted. At this moment, he really wanted to stretch his muscles.

Li Xingyun was filled with curiosity about his sister-in-law. He had heard that Liu Wumei was born without a talent for martial arts and had been unable to practice martial arts since childhood. She had only studied the fine arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and spent most of her time confined to her room, rarely leaving.

However, it is not known whether someone had the good fortune to witness her true appearance, or whether everyone saw her sister Liu Ruyan's beautiful face and graceful demeanor, and thus deduced that Liu Wumei must also be a stunningly beautiful woman. In short, all kinds of rumors spread like wildfire, saying that Liu Wumei was as beautiful as a fairy and as beautiful as Chang'e!

"Well, that's great. I haven't met you yet!" Liu Ruyan smiled and nodded slightly in response. But in the blink of an eye, as if she suddenly remembered something important, her face straightened and she warned Li Xingyun with a coquettish look:

"But you have to listen to me carefully. You are not allowed to have any bad thoughts about my sister. Do you understand?" After all, Liu Ruyan knew her husband's character and habits very well, so she thought it would be better to warn him in advance.

"Haha, don't worry, my dear princess, as long as my sister-in-law can resist my charm and is not bewitched by me and won't let me go, then I promise I will never provoke her!" Li Xingyun said with a smile on his face, while reaching out to hug Liu Ruyan's slender and soft waist, and then without hesitation, he gently kissed her delicate white face, and then laughed.

Seeing this, Liu Ruyan snorted coquettishly: "Hmph - you still have some self-awareness!" But she did not feel shy or embarrassed at all because Bai Jie and others were watching them. After all, they had experienced more intimate and candid things countless times, so what did this little quarrel mean?

At this moment, however, Li Xingyun's words flashed through Liu Ruyan's mind like a flash of lightning, causing her heart to tighten. Her sister rarely left the house. While she was certainly a talented woman, facing a man as outstanding as Li Xingyun, who knew she would actually act as he said? Thinking of this, Liu Ruyan frowned slightly, pondering to herself.

At this moment, Bai Jie, who was standing by, saw this scene. Not only did she not feel embarrassed, but she giggled as if she had discovered something interesting. She even deliberately joined in the fun and shouted, "Oh my, Your Highness, you are so partial! I want a kiss too!" After that, she took the initiative to move her pretty little face closer to Li Xingyun without caring about her image.

Seeing this, Li Xingyun naturally accepted the offer and without a word, pecked Bai Jie's tender cheek, causing her to burst into shy laughter again. Then, he turned his head with an unsatisfied look at A Lei and Lei Lin standing nearby, with a sly smile on his face, and asked teasingly, "Hey, how about it, two beauties, do you want to taste my love too?"
