Chapter 122: Chapter 122 His Care and Romance_1

Shen Tianxing saw his urgency and quickly patted his hand, scolding with a smile, "Don’t panic, listen to me first!"

Dugu Zixi suppressed the towering rage in his heart wanting to tear those scumbags apart, dissatisfied with her carefree demeanor, and snorted arrogantly, "Then keep talking!"

Shen Tianxing continued, "I observed the stars before, and those who want to kill me are from the noble families of Capital City. I’m afraid they might not stop trying after today, and might take action here in the next couple of days. Xixi, do you need to make some arrangements, just in case?"

As soon as Dugu Zixi heard it was one of the Capital City’s noble families that had tried to harm Shen Tianxing, he again felt a surge of anger, rage, and hatred.

A chill engulfed his body, and his eyes dark as night also flickered with a tangible icy coldness.

He clenched her hand, as if making a vow, and said, "Xiaoxing, rest assured, in Capital City, if they dare to make a move, I will chop off their claws! And if I find out who it was, I won’t let them off regardless of which family they belong to!"

At that moment, the furious Dugu Zixi resembled an enraged deity, his aura extremely formidable, and Shen Tianxing seemed to see again the overpowering master from her previous life.

She knew that Dugu Zixi meant every word he said!

Just like the last time with the Wei Family of Capital City, a family so large was uprooted just because he said so.

Shen Tianxing knew it was his covert actions; otherwise, with just the mundane strength of the Dugu Family, it wouldn’t have been so easy to take down the Wei Family, which ranked high in status.

It could only have been the use of a cultivator’s magical power that led them rapidly to their downfall.

Shen Tianxing asked him, "So what do you plan to do?"

Dugu Zixi coldly spat out four words, "Thorough investigation!"

After speaking, his tone softened, and he reached out both hands to cradle her face, his voice instantly turning tender and indulgent as he said, "Xiaoxing, I won’t let anyone ruin our engagement ceremony!"

Shen Tianxing gazed back at him with shining eyes, pulled down his hands, and smiled, "I believe you! I have been looking forward to this engagement ceremony for so long. Xixi, we will always be together, right?"

Dugu Zixi replied seriously and earnestly, "Of course! We will always be together! Never apart! If we live, we live together; if we die, we die together!"

Shen Tianxing, moved, embraced him, repeating his words, "Good, we will always be together! Never apart! If we live, we live together; if we die, we die together!"

Ever since Shen Tianxing followed her to this world, giving up his immortal body, she knew that Dugu Zixi’s affections for her were not just for a lifetime, but for many lifetimes of persistence.

How many men so powerful and yet so passionate exist in this world?

If she didn’t seize this opportunity to hold on tight, what if someone else deceived him away?

Although, considering Dugu Zixi’s devotion to her, this possibility was almost zero, Shen Tianxing didn’t want to give any woman even the slightest chance.

The two embraced each other affectionately for a while...

Thinking that he still had to arrange some matters outside, Dugu Zixi released Shen Tianxing and tenderly said to her, "Xiaoxing, I need to step out for a bit to take care of some things. You rest first, okay?"

Shen Tianxing smiled at him and said, "Go ahead! I’m going to practice cultivation for a while."

Dugu Zixi caressed her face with his hand, his voice filled with reluctance, "Alright, I’ll be going then, and when I’m done, I’ll come back to keep you company."

Shen Tianxing nodded with a smile.

Dugu Zixi kissed her once more before swiftly exiting the space.

In the Dugu Family’s living room, the family was still sitting there, chatting about the recent events in Capital City.

The elder of the Dugu Family suddenly saw Dugu Zixi walking down the stairs with a grim face and asked in some surprise, "Why have you come back so soon? Has something happened?"

Dugu Zixi acknowledged softly, with a sullen face he said to his family, "Today, on the way home from school, Xiaoxing was targeted again."

The members of the Dugu Family were equally shocked, "What? Who did it?"

Dugu Zixi sneered, "Xiaoxing has checked the stars, and it was again someone from Capital City who made the move. We just don’t know which blind creature did it?"

The elder of the Dugu Family slammed the table with force and exclaimed angrily, "This is outrageous! It seems that toppling the Wei Family hasn’t deterred these people, so let’s uproot another one. I want to see who dares to lay a finger on Xiaoxing next time!"

Without delay, the Dugu elder sent out a secret order to conduct a thorough investigation that very night.

Capital City appeared calm on the surface, but underneath, it was turbulent.

After Dugu Zixi had taken care of his duties, he entered the space once more and saw Shen Tianxing sitting cross-legged in the Cultivation Room, her eyes closed in meditation.

Every time Dugu Zixi thought about how his cultivation level still fell far short compared to Xiaoxing, he dared not slack off. He too found a spot to sit down and began to meditate alongside her.

A night’s time blinked by.

Shen Tianxing had set an alarm in her sea of consciousness, and when it reached seven in the morning, she would naturally awaken.

When she opened her eyes and saw Dugu Zixi meditating not far away, a tender warmth flickered at the bottom of her eyes.

The days they had spent together made her feel very settled and happy in her heart.

Thinking that today their whole family would go to Capital City and that they were getting engaged tomorrow, Shen Tianxing’s heart was filled with anticipation.

Hopefully, everything would go smoothly.

Hopefully, their engagement ceremony would be completed perfectly as well.

Shen Tianxing listened to the noises outside the space, and once she realized her parents and younger brothers had all gotten up, she prepared to leave.

She glanced at Dugu Zixi, who was still cultivating, and was about to wake him when she saw him slowly open his eyes and give her a warm, heartwarming smile.

Shen Tianxing smiled back at him, "Xixi, you’re awake? I was just about to call you!"

Dugu Zixi leapt up and dashed over to her side, effortlessly lifting her into his arms, "Let’s go wash up and brush our teeth."

Shen Tianxing patted him lightly, "Put me down, I can walk on my own!"

Dugu Zixi spoke with a stubborn expression, "No way, I just like holding you like this."

Looking at him, Shen Tianxing might have seemed speechless on the surface at his behavior, but the joy and happiness that seeped out from her eyes betrayed her feelings at that moment.

She was happy, happy about the protective and romantic gestures he showed without thinking.

The two of them dawdled in the bathroom for quite a while before finally coming out.

Dugu Zixi insisted on accompanying Shen Tianxing, wanting to have breakfast together.

Left with no choice, Shen Tianxing agreed to take him out.

Shen Wenru, Li Xiuxia, and the twin younger brothers had gotten used to the astonishing appearances and disappearances of Shen Tianxing and Dugu Zixi, so they were not surprised to see Dugu Zixi. On the contrary, they welcomed him warmly.
