Chapter 680 Beyond the Continent, Within the Planet
"Xiao'er, you said you weren't interested in the princess before, but now she's the empress! Shouldn't you be interested now?"
The Snow Empress's teasing voice echoed in my mind.
Ye Nanxiao took a deep breath, extended two fingers and pressed them against Xu Jiujiu's fair forehead, moving her head away from where she was leaning in.
"What are you doing! You're in debt and you still act all high and mighty, huh! Do you think everyone who owes money is a big shot?" Ye Nanxiao was furious. He, Ye the Fox, had defeated all the unscrupulous merchants in the world and believed himself to be second to none. How could he have been defeated by this?
"I know you like money, so if I owe you a lot, will you remember me?" Xu Jiujiu blinked her starry eyes and leaned close to him again.
"Ahem, lending me money requires approval. I only accept consultations between 2 PM and 4 PM every Thursday." Ye Nanxiao took a big step to the side, his body almost pressed against the corridor railing.
She wanted to follow him closely, but Ye Nanxiao's dead fish eyes were fixed on her.
"Nanxiao, what do you want to do with all that money? Can you tell me? Maybe I can help you!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao put away his playful expression and stared at Xu Jiujiu quietly, a resolute look rising in his eyes.
"I want to forge a true Heavenly Question Sword!"
"I want the world to be unified!"
Xu Jiujiu suddenly stopped in his tracks and quietly looked at Ye Nanxiao.
A faint smile appeared on Ye Nanxiao's face as he silently gazed at Xu Jiujiu.
The two remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking, "Since ten thousand years ago, Xingluo has occupied the southern part of the continent. Even the mighty Tiandou Kingdom ten thousand years ago could not bring Xingluo under its control."
"Xingluo has been the Xingluo Empire since ancient times."
"Nanxiao, I'm afraid..."
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly, turned around and continued walking forward.
Xu Jiujiu frowned slightly, bit her lip, and followed after him.
"If your concern is for the refugees caught in the middle, or the differences in national policies between the major empires, you can speak up. Perhaps I can help you now!"
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly and said, "The unification I seek doesn't necessarily mean erasing the name Xingluo from the continental map. Do you know that the land beneath your feet also has a far grander name?"
"This land is a small area on the planet, a piece of land on Douluo Star. But beyond it, on the vast and boundless ocean, are there other landmasses?"
"Outside the continent, in other places on the planet."
After a moment's thought, he said, "You mean, there are other landmasses similar to the Sun and Moon Continent?"
Back then, the Sun Moon Continent was carried here by the vast oceans and collided with the Douluo Continent, forming a four-way balance of power.
According to Ye Nanxiao, wouldn't there be something like the Sun and Moon Continent on the endless ocean?
What different forces exist on these continents?
Soul tool technology has already greatly impacted the traditions of Soul Masters; what if other different powers were to arrive?
After a long while, Xu Jiujiu suddenly realized that dealing with the memorials from the aristocratic families in the city last night was a trivial matter.
"Always be armed and prepared for the unknown future." Ye Nanxiao flipped his wrist, and a small ice sculpture of a divine cannon appeared in his hand.
"Which karaoke bar in town is your brother hiding at these days? Maybe I can bring a couple of bottles of liquor and go chat with him sometime?"
After a long pause, Xu Jiu looked up at Ye Nanxiao, who had resumed his smug grin, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He replied, "I made a bet with him, betting whether you could figure out that I was acting as regent. It seems I won. That guy's been living the high life lately."
"Even though I'm terrible at gambling, I still love to gamble. I'm both bad at it and love to play."
Hearing Xu Jiujiu's words, Ye Nanxiao frowned slightly, his eyes flashing. He instinctively felt that there seemed to be something strange about Xu Jiawei's matter.
Ye Nanxiao's clone was fighting right in front of Xu Jiawei at the time, so he should know very well whether Xu Jiawei was injured or not.
"The Immortal Doctor Douluo is the number one healing-type Title Douluo in the world. Even Elder Zhuang praised the Immortal Doctor highly and admitted defeat. Xu Jiawei should be alright." Ye Nanxiao thought to himself.
"Healing treasures, didn't that fat goose give you some treasures?" Xue Di suddenly reminded her.
Ye Nanxiao's eyes flashed, and he waved to Xu Jiujiu.
"You've figured it out? You think I can do it too?" Xu Jiujiu leaned forward, her starry eyes filled with joy.
Ye Nanxiao lightly tapped Xu Jiujiu's forehead with his sword-like finger. "You are Her Majesty the Empress, aren't you ashamed to think about these things all day?"
After a long while, she covered her forehead and took another step forward, her delicate body almost touching Ye Nanxiao's. Her soft, pointed breasts could be felt from just a little distance away.
"Are you shy? Or do you not like me acting like a typical demure young woman?"
"Does Nanxiao prefer girls with a stronger personality?"
Ye Nanxiao was slightly taken aback. Before he could react, Xue Di in his mind was already excited.
"Wow, a girl is willing to become the person you want her to be for love. The girl in your heart could be me!"
"Xiao'er, in my opinion, we should just go straight for it. Who knows, we might just make it to the top one day..."
Ye Nanxiao silently lowered the two fingers he had been pressing on his forehead. He was not going to let Xue Di into the communication channel today.
What kind of indecent things is this snow woman saying!
"Your Majesty, this..."
"Call me Jiu Jiu!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After a long while, he puffed out his cheeks and clenched his fists, ready to pounce.
Ye Nanxiao quickly took a step back and touched Xu Jiujiu's forehead. "Jiujiu, you don't need to change yourself for others. There are plenty of fish in the sea, right? You're an empress now, you can choose any of the concubines you want, can't you?"
He remained silent for a long time, gazing at Ye Nanxiao with a melancholy expression. After a long while, he slowly nodded, a slightly forced smile appearing on his face.
"You're right, I'm the Empress now."
Ye Nanxiao nodded slightly, and after going around in circles, they had returned to the front of the main hall.
After a long while, she watched Ye Nanxiao's retreating figure as if he were running away, the light in her eyes gradually faded and lost its luster.
"Yes, I was so foolish. I'm already the Empress, what am I still discussing with you?"
Ye Nanxiao seemed to feel a chill run down his back. He turned around and saw Xu Jiujiu looking at him with a smile on his face.
But there seemed to be something wrong with that smile.
"What's wrong? Have you come to a realization again?" Xu Jiujiu passed by Ye Nanxiao and gently bumped him with his shoulder again before walking straight into the main hall.
"Xiao'er, what's wrong? Have you taken a fancy to this girl?" Xue Di hacked into the communication channel. She had been keeping an eye on this matter, even though Ye Nanxiao would occasionally mute her for five minutes.
Ye Nanxiao stared at Xu Jiujiu's retreating figure. He had a feeling that he was being watched by something terrible. Usually, when he had this feeling, he was going to encounter something very troublesome.
Elder Xuan appeared beside Ye Nanxiao in a flash, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a slightly serious tone, "You brat, don't even think about taking a fancy to her. The Empress doesn't allow marriage to anyone below you. If anyone's going to marry, it'll be you. But you won't have that choice. Xiao Tao will beat you to death."
Ye Nanxiao rolled his eyes at Elder Xuan; he had no such idea.
After discussing some investigation details with Ma Xiaotao, Xu Jiujiu hosted a grand banquet in the palace to entertain everyone.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Your Majesty, is this secret recipe really effective?" Ma Xiaotao quietly approached Xu Jiujiu.
Taking a moment to raise his wine glass, Xu Jiujiu nodded to Ma Xiaotao. "Don't worry, it's something the late emperors all agreed on! It's said to be even stronger than a dragon!"
Upon hearing the affirmative answer, Ma Xiaotao received a small white bag from Xu Jiujiu.
Looking at the medicine packet, which was only the size of two fingers, and feeling what was inside, Ma Xiaotao raised an eyebrow. "Isn't this candy?"
Thank you so much!
"These are just material possessions. If you ever need my help in the future, I hope you won't refuse!"
"Alright! Sister Xiaotao, I'll definitely do my best to help!" Ma Xiaotao said with an innocent smile.
Xu Jiujiu raised his glass to toast Ma Xiaotao, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
That evening, after much planning, everyone stayed at a hotel on Second Street next to the palace.
After checking the room locations of all the team members, Ma Xiaotao grabbed Ye Nanxiao and quickly flew towards the arranged room, leaving a group of dumbfounded team members behind.
"Sister Ruoruo, our room is right next to Xiaotao's. How about we go somewhere else tonight?" Wu Ming said helplessly. She had clearly seen Ma Xiaotao's excited expression just now, and it seemed that something big was going to happen tonight.
Han Ruoruo shook her head slightly. "You shouldn't underestimate Xiao Tao's willpower. Her dedication to cultivation is extraordinary. Nan Xiao used to be Xiao Tao's cultivation partner. Perhaps they're eager to cultivate, since Xiao Tao is about to reach the Title Douluo realm!"
"I don't care, I absolutely want to change rooms tonight. If you don't, I'm leaving!"
"Me too! Wait for me!"
Inside Ma Xiaotao's room.
"Sister Xiaotao, is there any need for us to be in such a hurry? Sister Ruoruo and the others are looking at us strangely." Ye Nanxiao hugged the little phoenix that had jumped on him helplessly.
Ma Xiaotao buried her face in Ye Nanxiao's neck and gently bit his muscular shoulder.
"I don't care! It's been so long since I've seen you, Sister Tao! You heartless bastard! You never take me with you when you go out!"
"That's a hiss!"
Ye Nanxiao sensed that Ma Xiaotao's little hands, which had been pinching his abs, were starting to get restless. It turned out that she had learned military tactics and was splitting her forces into two groups to attack the enemy from both sides.
"hurry up!"
Ma Xiaotao exerted a little force, leading Ye Nanxiao into the room, and then bit down on Ye Nanxiao's shoulder again.
"You say I'm in a hurry? Aren't you even more anxious, little fox?"
"Hey! I'm an adult now, you big fox!"
"You say you're eighteen every single day of every year!"
For Ye Nanxiao's current cultivation level, he is already mature and powerful.
Mount Wu is easily shaken; with a turn of the hand, clouds can be formed, and with another, rain can be poured.
A pale purple soul force bond pulsated around the two of them, as brilliant as the aurora borealis and as smooth and soft as silk, enveloping them.
After an unknown amount of time, the rapidly flowing, pale purple soul power suddenly slowed down.
"Wait a minute!"
"What's wrong?"
Ma Xiaotao flipped Ye Nanxiao over and pressed him down, then found the small packet of medicine, about the size of two fingers.
"What's this?" Ye Nanxiao glanced at what Ma Xiaotao was holding.
"Sister Tao, don't you dare say something like, 'Did Dalang take his medicine?' later!"
"Yes, it's medicine!"
"?!"
