Chapter 467: Chapter 467: The World of Two Venerables and One King (2)_1

With a tone that was slightly coquettish and helpless, Zi Xiao’s somewhat weary heart relaxed considerably, and he said with a smile, "She’s also thinking of your well-being."

"If I become ugly, would you stop liking me?" Dugu Qianye suddenly asked.

Zi Xiao tickled her nose and said, "I like you for who you are, not your appearance. Why worry about something like that, silly!"

"I find myself quite frightening to look at in this state, aren’t you scared?" Dugu Qianye inquired, feeling a mix of hope and nervousness in her heart.

Zi Xiao kissed her on the lips and said, "No matter what you look like, my heart remains the same!"

My heart remains the same!

Dugu Qianye’s heart fluttered, then she smiled silently, her eyes gleaming with brilliant light.

If you do not leave, I will never abandon you!

Zi Xiao looked into her eyes and felt as if the whole world had turned to gold!

He kissed her eyes and said, "Last time, I said I would tell you everything when we meet again. Heal well for now, and once you’re better, I will take you out to see what my world is like."

"Okay!" Dugu Qianye nodded, responding obediently.

"Oh yes, what do you plan to do with this Fire Spirit Pearl?" asked Zi Xiao, taking out the Fire Spirit Pearl still encased in ice.

Seeing the condition of the Fire Spirit Pearl, Dugu Qianye was somewhat surprised and asked, "How did it become like this?"

"I had Qie Yue take it for a bath in the ice spring," Zi Xiao explained. "Then it turned out like this. I guess the ice spring was just too cold!"

Unable to contain her laughter at Zi Xiao’s words, Dugu Qianye burst out chuckling. Seeing the Fire Spirit Pearl emitting cold air, she was sure he had tampered with it—how else could the ice spring have frozen it like that?

"I want to play with it, I want to play ice hockey puck!" Little Baiqiu suddenly jumped out and exclaimed. These past few days, as Dugu Qianye was getting progressively better, Little Baiqiu went looking for La Yun again. More than once, this made Dugu Qianye roll her eyes and scornfully curse the disloyal creature in her heart for forgetting its master over a fling!

Zi Xiao, smiling at Little Baiqiu, tossed the Fire Spirit Pearl to it. Little Baiqiu scurried off with the pearl, its tail wagging playfully, much to the amusement of both Dugu Qianye and Zi Xiao.

A few days later, the bandages on Dugu Qianye were removed. Nian Hua looked at her and remarked, "Such a beautiful girl— I’ve never seen anyone so lovely! Of course, except for our master! Mm-hmm, I like it, haha!"

"How is it, any scars left on my face?" asked Dugu Qianye.

With a flip of his right hand, Nian Hua conjured a reflection with his Spiritual Power, forming a water mirror in front of Dugu Qianye.

"Nian Hua, you still have both water and fire attributes?" Dugu Qianye, seeing her smooth, renewed face in the mirror and remembering Nian Hua was an Alchemist likely to possess fire attribute, looked up and asked him.

Dispersing the Spiritual Power, Nian Hua said, "Yes, I have both water and fire attributes. It’s just that I use my fire attribute more often, so people don’t remember that I have both!" Pausing for a moment, he looked at Dugu Qianye and said, "You’re recovering well everywhere else now. If you feel tired of lying down, you can sit up as long as it doesn’t hurt your hands or feet."

"I know." Dugu Qianye sat up with Nian Hua’s assistance, moved her shoulders, and said, "I felt like I was getting moldy from lying down. Finally, I can move around!"

"If it were me, lying around for so long, I’d rather die!" said Nian Hua. "I just can’t sit still!"

"Hehe." Dugu Qianye chuckled.

"Those guards outside have been going mad over your ordeal; I haven’t seen anyone in the Nine Heavens Profound Realm get so crazed before!" Nian Hua said.

"What are people outside saying about me? What are they saying?"

"They’re talking about your past! Qie Yue revealed everything about your past, and then the news spread from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred. Now everyone knows and they all want to see what you look like!" Nian Hua said.

"Er—"

"Alright, the bandages are changed. You won’t need to change them every day from now on." Nian Hua finished bandaging Dugu Qianye’s hands and feet and said, "I won’t come every day from now on either. In a few days, when it’s better, you can take the bandages off by yourself."

"Okay, thank you!" Dugu Qianye sincerely thanked her.

"If you want to thank me, just come and visit me often. I’m alone, and it gets quite lonely usually," Nian Hua said.

"Why haven’t you found a husband?" Dugu Qianye, knowing she was still single, asked curiously.

Nian Hua, who was originally smiling, suddenly fell silent, and then gave a bitter smile as she said, "I haven’t found the right one, I guess. I’ll head back first."

After Nian Hua left, Zi Xiao came in and saw Dugu Qianye deep in thought. He asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I’m wondering about Nian Hua’s expression just now. Did I say something wrong?"

"What did you say?"

"I just asked her why she hasn’t gotten a husband," Dugu Qianye said. "Her expression turned so strange after hearing that."

"I’ll explain that to you in a bit. You’ve been lying in bed for so long, don’t you want to go outside and have a look?" Zi Xiao said.

"Really?! Yes, I’d love to!" Dugu Qianye said excitedly.

Zi Xiao looked at Dugu Qianye’s excited appearance, came to the bedside, slid one arm under her armpits, the other under her knees, and gently lifted her up, asking, "Does this feel uncomfortable?"

Dugu Qianye wrapped her arms around his neck, shook her head, and said, "No."

Zi Xiao carried Dugu Qianye out of the room, and the patrolling guards saluted them when they saw them. Zi Xiao nodded and flew with Dugu Qianye in his arms to the mountain behind the palace.

After they had left, the guards gathered together and said, "Who would’ve thought that our future mistress is even prettier in person than in the images we saw before!"

"Indeed, I didn’t expect her to be so young and already at such a high level, and to have experienced so much too."

"Back when we were her age, we weren’t even close to what she’s achieved! Some people were looking down on her before, and they really were..."

Zi Xiao carried Dugu Qianye to the top of the mountain, found a large rock to sit on, and held Dugu Qianye in his arms.

"The scenery here is nice!" Dugu Qianye said, looking at the view below.

Zi Xiao pointed at the palace below and the city in the distance, asking, "Do you know where this is?"

"They said this place is called Jiutian Xuanjie," Dugu Qianye replied. "And this city is the largest city here, called Wuyou City. Are you going to tell me about your matters now?"

Zi Xiao nodded and said, "This place is called Jiutian Xuanjie, and it’s one of my realms. This realm is connected to every other realm, yet it is independent. Much like Mang Qianjun’s Endless Hell. Yong Xing rules over the various big and small realms, I have this place, Mang Qianjun has his Endless Hell, and these together make up our current world."
