Chapter 2299 Don't Slap My Face, Here We Go Again

Old Hei wasn't afraid of being beaten, since it wasn't the first time. What bothered him was that he was beaten up for no reason, not only taking the blame for someone else but also not getting any benefit in return.

That's horrible!

Old Hei had initially wanted to explain, but now it was pointless. Having suffered so much, no amount of explanation would help.

Instead of wasting time explaining things to Yan Ximeng, it would be better to ask Xiao Junchou for something good.

We can take the blame without really understanding why, but we absolutely cannot take it for nothing!

Old Hei's clothes were disheveled, his face was swollen and red, and he looked utterly pathetic, lacking any semblance of dignity as a clan leader. He turned to look at Xiao Junchou not far away, his gaze filled with resentment and extreme grievance.

Due to his inferior strength, Xiao Junchou dared not transmit his voice at this moment, fearing that Yan Ximeng would overhear him.

Therefore, Xiao Junchou gave Lao Hei an approving look, saying, "We'll talk about it properly later, and I promise I won't treat you unfairly."

Their eyes met, and everything was understood without words.

Old Hei cursed at Xiao the Old Man, forced to accept. If he didn't accept Xiao Junchou's compensation afterward, wouldn't the beating have been for nothing?

"follow me."

After beating up Lao Hei, Yan Ximeng turned her attention to Xiao Junchou, her coldness chilling to the bone.

We can't expect to achieve enlightenment and unite yin and yang right now!

Given my senior's style of doing things, it's not impossible.

Xiao Junchou couldn't help but let his mind wander, filled with anticipation and barely concealing his excitement.

"okay!"

He had previously appeared forlorn and aloof, but now he had resumed his usual demeanor, following closely behind Yan Ximeng and looking forward to a bright future.

Little did he know that what awaited Xiao Junchou was not Yan Ximeng's tenderness, but her fists.

In front of everyone, Yan Ximeng couldn't bring herself to attack Xiao Junchou. But when they were alone, she naturally didn't have that concern.

In the Upper Realm, Yu Chenran and the others were still savoring what had just happened.

"Judging from this, it won't be long before Senior Sister and Senior Brother Xiao become Daoist partners."

"After waiting for most of his life, Senior Brother Xiao has finally succeeded. It wasn't easy!"

"My wish has come true, and I have no regrets."

Everyone smiled and discussed, offering their sincere blessings.

Old Black stood alone high in the sky, having achieved the feat of being injured alone, and was on the verge of tears.

Zhao Yichuan glanced at Lao Hei and muttered under his breath, "He's got a bad temper, serves him right."

The crisis was not yet completely over, so Zhao Yichuan dared not approach Lao Hei and kept a safe distance to avoid being implicated.

"Senior sister, let's talk this out. Can you please not resort to violence?"

In a secluded space, Xiao Junchou knew what he was about to face. To say that he wasn't a little flustered would be a lie.

Yan Ximeng sneered, "Heh."

The rest of the story is self-evident.

"Senior sister, I only have one request: please don't hit my face."

Faced with Yan Ximeng's relentless pressure, Xiao Junchou retreated until he had nowhere left to go and could only plead.

......

Northern Wilderness, a certain place.

Chen Qingyuan read through the ancient books and secret texts he obtained from the gods, learning about many little-known historical traces.

Reading books won't change your abilities.

Through these historical records, Chen Qingyuan seemed to wander through the long river of time, broadening his experience and seeing many different landscapes.

Empress An Xiruo, showing no trace of imperial power, sat quietly to the side, watching Chen Qingyuan with immense happiness.

Sometimes she would pour tea for Chen Qingyuan, and sometimes she would make some pastries by hand.

A quiet and cozy life is her dream that she has pursued for countless years.

If time could freeze at this point, it would be a good ending.

"Xi Ruo, aren't you going to read all these historical books?"

Chen Qingyuan stared at the jade slip history book in his hand, without looking up at the beauty beside him, and spoke softly.

"Not interested in."

An Xiruo has no intention of reading for the time being.

"So what are you interested in?"

Chen Qingyuan then asked a question.

"To you."

This wasn't their first time establishing a relationship, and An Xiruo was much bolder than before. She lightly bit her cherry lips with her pearly teeth, her eyes sparkling with starlight, exuding tenderness and sweet affection, her voice melodious and enchanting.

Geek!

Chen Qingyuan, who was engrossed in reading historical records, felt a jolt in his heart and his eyelids twitched slightly. He had not expected An Xiruo to give such an answer.

Immediately, Chen Qingyuan raised his head, glanced at the beautiful woman, opened his mouth as if to speak, but didn't know what to say.

Their eyes met, filled with deep affection.

Before, An Xiruo would have lowered her eyes with a hint of shyness, not daring to meet his gaze. Now, however, she has clearly matured a lot, staring straight at Chen Qingyuan, making no attempt to hide the affection in her eyes, unwilling to be outdone.

After staring at each other for a while, Chen Qingyuan became a little nervous.

Well!

Before Chen Qingyuan could react, An Xiruo leaned closer and lightly touched his lips to his.

A touch of rouge appeared on Chen Qingyuan's lips. He was taken aback for a moment, then the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, as if he had taken a bite of candied fruit—quite sweet, warming his heart.

"Brother, hurry up and read your book, don't daydream."

An Xiruo offered a reminder, her expression calm, as if nothing had happened.

"You...you little brat."

Chen Qingyuan was slightly taken aback, and reached out to rub An Xiruo's head.

An Xiruo first made Chen Qingyuan a cup of hot tea, then gently leaned on Chen Qingyuan's shoulder, closed her eyes, and enjoyed this peaceful and beautiful moment.

In this enclosed, isolated space, similar little incidents often occur.

If there were no external pressure, Chen Qingyuan would really like to stay here with An Xiruo for a long time, until the end of time.

Several months later, Chen Qingyuan had read through all the ancient books and secret texts that the Primordial God Clan had given him.

The vast amount of information filling his mind did not cause Chen Qingyuan any discomfort.

The historical panorama of ancient times is filled with many regrets.

"Brother, did you gain anything?"

An Xiruo was very concerned about this.

Chen Qingyuan: "They're just some historical records and classics; what can you possibly gain from them?"

The ancient gods would certainly not have copied and gifted important texts, so Chen Qingyuan had no access to many secrets from ancient times.

"How about we go to the Sea of ​​Illusion again?"

An Xiruo spoke with great seriousness, her expression solemn, a hint of imperial majesty emanating from her, causing the surrounding void to show signs of cracking and the order of the star sea to fluctuate slightly.

Her gentleness was something only Chen Qingyuan could enjoy.

Chen Qingyuan was thinking this: "Okay."

Chen Qingyuan had a great interest in the secrets of ancient times.

It seems we still need to take this seriously, otherwise the Protoss won't reveal their true historical depth.

"Do you want to take action?"

An Xiruo has a tendency towards violence.

Chen Qingyuan: "It's not that bad."

Let's go back to the Sea of ​​Illusion and have a proper talk first.

If we can't reach an agreement, it's not too late to take action.

Looking across the myriad realms of China, the Primordial Gods are the best place to fleece people. Their foundation is so profound that it far surpasses what ordinary people can imagine.

Having lifted the restriction, the two set off towards their destination.

Not long after, they returned to the Sea of ​​Illusion.

The divine race was once again stirred up as they keenly detected the aura fluctuations of Chen Qingyuan and An Xiruo.

Why are they here again?
