#2041 - Do you blame me in your heart?

Regarding the requests made by the gods of Donghai and Longxi, Jun Wuxie naturally would not refuse.

If they want to continue to exist independently, then let them be independent.

I fear that in the future, they will actively request to integrate into the Dawn Dynasty.

In this world, they are fixated on imperial power only because this world is limited.

They cannot leave the ancient life star beneath their feet, and the world in their eyes and hearts is extremely limited, unaware of the vastness of the starry sky.

In the future, when they know how vast and boundless the world is, and that the path of cultivation is endless, a corner of power will no longer be the pursuit of life, nor will it become an obsession in their hearts.

"We thank you, Lord Jun.

We wonder if Lord Jun needs anything from us. If we can share Lord Jun's burdens, please do not hesitate to command us."

They all wanted to show their worth, trying to leave a better impression as much as possible.

Lord Jun is a person who values ​​relationships and righteousness.

In this way, it will be more stable to obtain a piece of land for reproduction in the future.

"There is nothing that requires your assistance at the moment.

I will need you when the two realms are connected in the future."

"Please command us, Lord Jun."

"As I said before, the torrent of the apocalypse is coming, and the armies of the outside world need to improve their cultivation, so they need a massive amount of resources.

After you return, try to prepare as many God-Rank One resources as possible.

Saint-Rank Nine resources are also needed. When the time comes, send them to the Lanling Imperial Capital, and I will have people refine them into special cultivation pills."

"Okay, we will definitely collect resources according to Lord Jun's instructions."

"Well, I still have things to do, please help yourselves.

You can stay in my Lanling Imperial Capital for a few days and take a good look around."

"Thank you for Lord Jun's kindness. Since Lord Jun has important matters to attend to, we will not disturb you.

We will hurry back to prepare resources as soon as possible."

They all withdrew from the Jun Yue Pavilion.

Stepping out of the Jun Yue Pavilion's gate, the four celestial god powerhouses turned around together, taking a deep look at the Jun Yue Pavilion.

The four looked at each other, and breathed a sigh of relief in unison, each seeing a relieved expression in the other's eyes.

This trip resolved the worries in their hearts.

The matter that had been making them worry all these years was now confirmed to not happen.

Nothing could make them feel more relaxed than this.

Just now in the Jun Yue Pavilion, when facing that young man, they felt very suppressed in their hearts.

That feeling was like facing a high mountain or a deep abyss, giving them a suffocating sensation.

What is fear?

They had never understood that feeling before.

For countless years, there was nothing in the world that made them afraid.

Until Jun Wuxie appeared, making them deeply fearful.

And meeting him today, they truly understood how unfathomable the other party was.

Just facing him alone, an uncontrollable sense of trembling actually arose in their hearts.

… …

Two more months passed.

During these days, Jun Wuxie researched and developed many pill formulas.

Some of these pill formulas were for refining cultivation speed-up pills, to prepare for the Dawn Dynasty army and friends, family, and subordinates in the outside world in the future.

There were also some pill formulas for breaking restrictions when attempting to break through bottlenecks.

They could help cultivators reduce the difficulty of breaking through to the next realm when attempting to break through at the Great Perfection of a major realm, and increase the probability of success.

On this day, the Apricot Blossom Village Squad arrived at the Imperial Capital.

They had already heard about the great changes in the world's situation on the road.

As soon as they arrived at the Imperial Capital, Huasaki and the others inquired everywhere and found their way to the Jun Yue Pavilion.

Jun Wuxie was not in the Jun Yue Pavilion at the time.

He had been really busy for more than two years.

Now, he was finally a little free, so he returned to the palace and spent a few days with the women around him.

Huasaki and the others arrived at the Imperial Capital very early, just as the sky was dawning.

When they found the Jun Yue Pavilion, it was still early morning.

The people from Jun Yue Pavilion hurriedly went to the palace to report.

When the Phoenix Guards brought the news, Jun Wuxie was in Empress Xiao Ruoqing's bedroom.

On the phoenix couch in the bedroom, there was not only Xiao Ruoqing, but also Nalan Jingyi, leaning on either side of him.

After a night of tenderness and frenzy, Nalan Jingyi and Xiao Ruoqing's bodies were limp, with almost no strength left.

Two stunningly beautiful faces were flushed, with some sweat stains, and a few strands of hair stuck to their cheeks.

At this time, Jun Wuxie was explaining matters related to the Double Pupils' cultivation, interpreting some of the true meanings of the Dao.

Every time he was with Xiao Ruoqing, he would explain and interpret things afterward, helping her solve problems encountered in cultivation.

Xiao Ruoqing did not dare to develop her bloodline potential due to the environment in which she lived.

For so many years, she had been trying her best to hide her bloodline talent.

Until she met Jun Wuxie.

She had a very strange feeling in her heart.

When she first saw his name and appearance on the Heavenly Dao Rankings that year, she had an extremely strong feeling in her heart.

It was as if he was the closest person to her in this world, the person she most wanted to get close to.

In addition, there was a inexplicable feeling of accelerated heartbeat.

She believed that there was such a thing as love at first sight in the world, but she had never thought that she would fall in love with any man at first sight.

She knew her own state of mind, how could she inexplicably fall in love at first sight?

Could it be just because he was good-looking?

Obviously, that was impossible.

But he had an indescribable feeling about him that kept attracting her, making it difficult for her to control herself, and she would always open her heart and face him with her most authentic side without any defenses.

"Lord Jun, Your Majesty, Empress, this servant has something to report.

Young Master and the others have already arrived at the Imperial Capital and are waiting at the Jun Yue Pavilion."

"Understood, tell them I will go to the Jun Yue Pavilion in the afternoon."

"Yes."

The Phoenix Guard retreated.

"Ruoqing, I have always had a question I don't understand.

Back then, when I asked Jun Lang to replace me in consummating the marriage with you, you were clearly meeting for the first time, how could you be willing to go to such an extent…

With your personality, it's really unbelievable."

Nalan Jingyi leaned on Jun Wuxie's chest, looking at Xiao Ruoqing, who was also leaning on his chest and blushing, with a flushed face.

"Because… because Ruoqing has liked Jun Lang for a long time."

"Ah?"

Nalan Jingyi showed a surprised expression.

"From the moment the Heavenly Gift Divine Hall released the rankings, from the first time I saw Jun Lang's appearance, I have been sinking deeper and deeper, unable to extricate myself.

In those days, I would dream of Jun Lang almost every night.

Sometimes I would even have very strange dreams, dreaming that Jun Lang was guiding and teaching me in cultivation, and that we had spent many years together in the past.

Those dreams were so real, as if I had personally experienced them…"

"So that's how it is, so you had your eye on Jun Lang even before you met him."

Nalan Jingyi's eyes flickered with strange light, "Confess honestly, Ruoqing, is that all there was to your dreams?

I don't believe it, didn't you have those indescribable…"

"Ah, Your Majesty, you're so bad~"

Xiao Ruoqing poked Nalan Jingyi under the arm with her finger, causing Nalan Jingyi to giggle, and immediately launched a counterattack.

So, the two of them went back and forth, rolling around on Jun Wuxie's body.

"Hmph, you still say I'm bad, you did it yourself, am I not allowed to say it?"

Nalan Jingyi teased while giggling, her face flushed.

Xiao Ruoqing blushed and retorted, saying: "Your Majesty is still talking about me, I don't know who was kneeling in front of Jun Lang with seductive eyes, looking submissive and trying to please Jun Lang… Ah… Your Majesty, what are you doing… Ah!"

"Xiao Ruoqing, you're done for!"

Nalan Jingyi's face was so red that it was almost dripping blood, pinching her everywhere, "How dare you say that, you little slut, you always fight with me every time!

Next time, I won't let you fight, if you come over, I'll push you away!"

"Hmph, whether or not I'm allowed depends on what Jun Lang says, what Your Majesty says doesn't count~"

Xiao Ruoqing shook her beautiful cheeks slightly, looking at her triumphantly.

"You little dead girl!"

Nalan Jingyi glared at her, then sat up from the bed and began to dress, "I'm going to court, I can't accompany Jun Lang anymore."

After speaking, she leaned down and kissed him hard on the face, saying: "Don't eat alone with Xiao Ruoqing, or I'll be jealous!"

"Ah, Jun Lang, look at Your Majesty, she actually dares to tell you not to!

Your Majesty is going to turn the world upside down.

Jun Lang, you must punish her severely, make her cry and beg for mercy, and reflect on her mistakes~"

"Jingyi, did you hear what Ruoqing said?

Do you think you should be punished?"

Jun Wuxie gave her a meaningful look.

"Ah, no way~"

Nalan Jingyi retreated a long distance as if electrocuted.

Immediately, seeing Jun Wuxie and Xiao Ruoqing's knowing smiles, she felt inexplicably flustered, only feeling her face burning hot, even her neck was red.

"I… I'm leaving~\

,"Nalan Jingyi left as if fleeing.

Xiao Ruoqing covered her mouth and giggled as she watched her embarrassed figure.

The smile on Jun Wuxie's face gradually faded.

His palm stroked from Xiao Ruoqing's hair all the way to her beautiful cheeks, "Do you blame me in your heart?"

Xiao Ruoqing, who was originally full of joy, trembled suddenly, her body stiffening.

Immediately, she suddenly softened, her whole body as if losing strength, collapsing in his arms.

"This concubine has never blamed Jun Lang."

She put her face on his chest, shaking her head gently, her voice with a little choked up.

"I'm sorry, you are you, he is him, I can't forgive everything he did just because you are my woman.

Right and wrong, there always has to be a standard."

For several years, Xiao Ruoqing had never actively mentioned the Lanling Royal Mansion in front of him, nor had she mentioned the Lanling King.

Jun Wuxie also didn't mention it.

Because in these few years, he had rarely been in the palace, and the time he came here was even less.

Therefore, he hadn't brought up those unpleasant things.

But today, he did mention them.

Some things always need to be said; avoidance is not a solution.

Xiao Ruoqing didn't speak, but he felt the skin of his chest grow wet.

She was crying, silently shedding tears.

Just as she said, he also believed that she didn't blame him.

But that didn't mean she wasn't sad inside.

Emotions suppressed for a long time were all released at this moment.

"Cry, it will feel better after crying."

Jun Wuxie hugged her, gently stroking her hair.

No matter what, the Lanling King was ultimately his father.

Regardless of how the Lanling King treated her, they were, after all, connected by blood.

The Lanling King's ending was tragic, and the entire Xiao Clan was also destroyed.

The only remaining bloodline was Xiao Ruoqing.

Having experienced these things, even if she had no feelings for the Xiao family, no sense of belonging, she couldn't help but feel desolate; this was human nature.

For her not to blame him, not to hate him, was already deeply understanding and extremely rare.
