Chapter 235 Encounter under the Starry Sky

Xiao Zhen and Jia Tiannan were walking in the deserted courtyard. Neither of them knew how to start the conversation. After all, their current relationship was a bit awkward.

Jia Tiannan looked towards a courtyard inadvertently and said in surprise: "Hey! It's actually a fourth-level magical beast, the two-headed fire spirit snake. This is a rare creature!"

Xiao Zhen glanced at the big guy who was sleeping soundly in the yard and said with a faint smile: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is just a pet!"

Jia Tiannan sighed and said helplessly: "Okay, don't speak in that tone. We have been friends for so many years, just say what you want to say. Let's just do it the same as before!"

The tense expression on Xiao Zhen's face immediately relaxed. He thought that Jia Tiannan had been the emperor for several years and had long forgotten their previous friendship, so he was more careful with his words.

"You can't blame me for this! Brother Tiannan, you've been the emperor for several years, and you have an imperial aura!" Xiao Zhen sighed, then laughed, "As the saying goes, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. What if you get angry one day and kill my entire family?"

Jia Tiannan smiled, found a stone bench and sat down, saying: "I don't have the guts. You are not so easy to kill. The entire Xiao family is not a pushover. The most important thing is your teacher. Even I, the emperor, have to be respectful to him!"

Xiao Zhen shook his head and said with a smile: "You are really frustrated as an emperor. Tell me what it feels like to be an emperor. I am quite curious!"

Jia Tiannan pointed at Xiao Zhen and laughed, "If you want to experience what it's like to be an emperor, I can give you a chance, as long as you're willing to wait!"

Xiao Zhen quickly waved his hands, shook his head and said, "Forget it. I am not from your royal family. The throne will never be mine!"

Emperors are generally suspicious people, and Xiao Zhen doesn't want Jia Tiannan to think that he is eyeing his family's throne.

Jia Tiannan raised his lips and said jokingly, "That's not necessarily true. After all, you are my daughter's fiancé. If you are willing to marry into my family, you may become the emperor of the Jiama Empire."

When Xiao Zhen heard this, he sneered a few times and responded unceremoniously:

"After saying so much, you actually want me to marry into your family. I can tell you clearly that there is no door, not even a window!"

Jia Tiannan just smiled awkwardly, but what he just said was not a joke.

In the royal family of the Jia Ma Empire, there is a set of advanced earth-level skills passed down from generation to generation, but unfortunately it is incomplete, and when practiced, it is only slightly better than the low-level earth-level skills.

However, this technique also has some flaws. That is, after practicing it, it will have some impact on the practitioner's fertility. Although it will not lead to the extinction of the family, it will make the entire royal family always have a small population.

After practicing martial arts, Jia Tiannan was very happy to have two daughters. He did not dare to guarantee that in the next few decades, he would be able to successfully have a son and then smoothly inherit the throne.

Xiao Zhen exhaled and said, "Speaking of which, how should I address you from now on, Your Majesty, or Father-in-law?"

Jia Tiannan shook his head and sighed, “This marriage contract was initiated by my royal grandfather, and there is nothing I can do about it!

Besides, if you marry my daughter, I will be the one who suffers, right? Why are you pretending?"

Xiao Zhen then talked with Jia Tiannan for a while, reminiscing about the carefree days in the past.

During his time as emperor, he kept complaining that he was so tired that he wanted to sleep as soon as he lay down every day, but he still had to pretend to be majestic.

"Okay, let's talk about this today. If you are free in the future, come to the palace to see my old friend!" Jia Tiannan patted his sleeves and said with a wry smile.

Xiao Zhen cupped his hands and said with a laugh, "As you command, my father-in-law!"

Jia Tiannan suddenly shuddered all over. Hearing the words "father-in-law", he felt unwell.

Everyone in the hall has already started private discussions, and the content is nothing more than what it feels like to be former good friends and now become father-in-law and son-in-law.

At this time, Xiao Zhen and the other person also came back. After that, the royal family had lunch at Xiao's house and then returned to the palace.

Xiao Zhen returned to his yard. Die suddenly came out from a corner and said sarcastically:

"What's wrong? Didn't you talk to your future father-in-law? You look so worried!"

Xiao Zhen just smiled awkwardly. He knew that Die had been hiding nearby, and he probably heard everything that happened between him and Jia Tiannan clearly.

Die put her hand on the outside of her chin and asked curiously, "By the way, are you really going to go to that princess?"

Xiao Zhen shrugged his shoulders and said in a perfunctory tone: "Don't ask me, I don't know about this either. Anyway, we will just take it one step at a time!"

Die couldn't do anything about this guy, so she just ignored it and went back to her room to take a nap.

Xiao Zhen also felt a little bored, so he simply went to the alchemy room in the backyard and gave some instructions to the alchemists hired by the family.

A group of gray-haired old men listened to his beautiful teachings and behaved like primary school students. Xiao Zhen did not feel that there was anything to be proud of. After all, his vision was not on the same level as these ordinary alchemists.

As night fell, Xiao Zhen walked out of the Xiao family and the imperial capital. He sat cross-legged on a plain in the dense jungle.

Looking at the densely packed stars in the sky, Xiao Zhen said with emotion: "It's really good. My life now is rich, powerful, with women, sons and daughters. This is the pinnacle of life!"

"Lingling~"

Xiao Zhen suddenly looked towards the bushes not far away and shouted vigilantly, "Who are you? Stop hiding there and come out quickly!"

After saying this, Xiao Zhen immediately released a stream of soul power and explored the bushes.

"Don't be nervous, sir. I'm just a little girl passing by!"

After the clear female voice, a woman wearing a red slit long skirt appeared, revealing a pair of seductive long legs, bare feet with two small bells tied on them, and a charming oval face.

Although this woman showed up on her own initiative and her tone revealed aloofness, it was obvious that she was a very arrogant person.

Xiao Zhen's eyes were solemn, and his heart was like a parking lot destroyed by a tornado, and it was difficult to calm down.

Although it was the first time that Xiao Zhen met this incredibly beautiful woman in front of him, he recognized her at a glance. She was the Warcraft Overlord who made the Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Tiger King scream in panic.

Character: Akabane

Identity: Fire Spirit Bird (with the blood of Heavenly Demon Phoenix)

Age: 812 years old

Cultivation: Seventh level peak magic beast

Evaluation: A woman with an aloof personality is often very passionate deep down. If you conquer her, you will discover the beauty of it.

After seeing these attributes, Xiao Zhen had beads of cold sweat on his forehead. With his current fighting ability, he was no match for this woman.

If the two sides were to fight now, Xiao Zhen felt that his biggest possibility would be to escape to another world.

Xiao Zhen felt a little regretful at this time. What was wrong with him? Instead of staying at home and sleeping with his girl late at night, he came to this remote place to watch the stars. This time he had walked into trouble.

"Sir, how long are you going to watch? This is not what a gentleman does!"

After this reminder, Xiao Zhen smiled awkwardly and said, "The girl is so beautiful that I was distracted for a moment. Please don't blame me!"

Akabane just snorted coldly. She had seen too many of these male human faces.

Since leaving the Monster Mountain Range, Akabane has traveled around the surrounding countries. During this time, she almost hid all her fighting spirit, making others look like a delicate beauty.

Such a situation naturally attracted some unlucky people with bad intentions.

Along the way, Akabane herself didn't know how many people were burned to ashes by her because they had inappropriate thoughts.
