Chapter 65: I Don’t Want to Give Him Up Anymore

Seeing Lin Xun’s dazed and complicated expression, Xia Xiaomeng’s lips curled slightly, her eyes rippling with happy joy, and a faint charm graced her features.

Gently standing on her tiptoes, she placed both hands on Lin Xun’s shoulders, leaning close to him as she slowly rose up.

Her flawless, exquisite face drew closer and closer, while Lin Xun’s hands, with nowhere to go, simply hovered in the air.

The girl’s faint fragrance already lingered at the tip of Lin Xun’s nose, driving away the coolness of the night and replacing it with a slight, stifling heat.

Just as the girl’s soft, cherry lips were about to gently touch Lin Xun’s, her peach-blossom eyes flickered subtly.

“Hiss—”

Below Lin Xun’s neck, near his shoulder, came a slight stinging pain from a bite.

After a long while, the young girl lowered her heels and used her slender hands to straighten Lin Xun’s collar.

“I have urgent matters to handle this time. When I return, I will make you kiss me of your own accord.”

With that, she put her hands behind her back and took two steps back, putting distance between herself and Lin Xun. Yet, her glass-like eyes remained fixed on him, not looking away for a single moment.

It was as if she wanted to engrave Lin Xun’s entire being into her heart.

“I’m leaving.”

Biting her pink lips with her silver teeth, the girl took one last deep look at Lin Xun before circulating her Spells and turning to vanish into the night.

The girl left very quickly, as if fearing that if she slowed down by even a single step, she would never be able to leave him again.

“Your Majesty.”

On the outskirts of Luo City, an elderly woman in the Immortal Realm called out with heartache as she watched Xia Xiaomeng lean against a tree, clutching her chest with one hand and breathing deeply.

She had never seen her Majesty like this… She was the only Immortal Realm Enshrined of the Qian Kingdom and also Xia Xiaomeng’s Master.

Although she didn’t know what this young girl, who bore the Dragon Luck of the world’s mountains and rivers, had said to that man,

it was clear now that Her Majesty was deeply trapped in the web of love. Even a temporary separation caused her so much pain it was hard to breathe.

As expected, was that boy she met during her time wandering the Mortal World really him… She thought that after so many years, Her Majesty would have long forgotten him. Moreover, Her Majesty was the first Sovereign Cultivator since ancient times, while the other party was but a mere Mortal.

The gap in their status was too vast; Her Majesty should have let him go long ago… But why was this silly girl so stubborn… “Master, Xiaomeng is fine.” Having regulated her breathing, Xia Xiaomeng straightened up, but her gaze remained fixed in the direction of Luo City.

The Immortal Realm elder named Le Sha shook her head:

“Your Majesty, since ancient times, the Great Dao has been heartless. You are the first Cultivator with a Sovereign Physique since ancient times; your future achievements will surely surpass mine. Before tens of thousands of years of the Great Dao, the so-called Mortal World is but a brief few decades.”

“Is Master advising Xiaomeng to sever her ties with the Mortal World?”

Le Sha shook her head: “Your Majesty is a Sovereign Cultivator; it is only right to temper yourself in the Mortal World. However, being deeply mired in Mortal love is already a departure from the Immortal Dao, and also from the Sovereign Dao.”

Xia Xiaomeng merely smiled: “When the wars ended ten years ago and Xiaomeng was brought back to the Imperial Palace, does Master remember the first sentence Xiaomeng said to you?”

Le Sha nodded, a look of reminiscence in her eyes: “Of course I remember. Your Majesty told me that you wished to seek the Dao.”

“Then does Master know why Xiaomeng wanted to seek the Dao?”

“Back then, Your Majesty said you wanted to attain longevity and make the Qian Kingdom stand at the pinnacle of the world.”

“Giggle, giggle, giggle.”

Outside Luo City, the girl’s crisp laughter rang out. Though it sounded a bit like a little hen, it was very pleasant, like the tinkling of bells… “What longevity? What Qian Kingdom standing at the pinnacle of the world?” The girl’s slender finger gently wiped away a tear of laughter from the corner of her eye, her charming eyes gradually turning cold. “What does the Qian Kingdom have to do with me? What of longevity? What use is it without him?”

“Your Majesty.”

“The reason I, this Empress, practice cultivation is nothing more than wanting to one day leave the Imperial Palace, find him, and take him into my arms!”

“…” Le Sha gave a soft sigh. “If that is the case, Your Majesty has already achieved it.”

“Yes, I found him.” A trace of water-like tenderness flashed in the girl’s eyes, but soon, this touch of tenderness gradually froze over. “But, the current him does not belong to me.”

“If Your Majesty wants him, just bring him back to the Imperial Palace.” Le Sha said indifferently. She knew the girl’s stubbornness, so she could only go along with her wishes.

After all, Immortals and Mortals are ultimately different. So-called love will eventually cool down. After many years when that man grows old and Her Majesty sees through the Mortal World, it might even be more beneficial for her state of mind.

“If his wife were just from an ordinary family, he would already be mine!” The girl said with a pouting mouth. Under her Imperial Majesty, there was actually a bit of resentful cuteness.

When the girl’s tone became firm, her self-reference would also change to ‘Zhen’ (I, the Empress).

“Sigh…”

Le Sha gave a soft sigh, but didn’t think much of it.

She knew Her Majesty had visited a childhood friend and thought Her Majesty simply felt bad for her best friend and thus refrained from acting.

But Xia Xiaomeng’s next sentence made Le Sha’s heart tighten!

“Master, I want to go to the Dragon Abyss!”

“Xiaomeng! You cannot go!”

Le Sha was so frightened her face turned Pale! She even forgot to use honorifics.

The so-called Dragon Abyss was a Secret Realm on the Longming Continent! Rumored to be the burial ground of the last True Dragon in the world.

The Dragon Abyss opens once every hundred years, and the next opening is exactly seven months away!

There is a Dragon Soul in the Dragon Abyss. If Xiaomeng could take it for her own use, her future path would surely reach the Ascension Realm; all she would need is time.

If Xia Xiaomeng were an ordinary Cultivator, then Le Sha would be extremely willing for her to temper herself in various Secret Realms!

But Xia Xiaomeng was different!

She possessed the only Emperor Immortal Physique since ancient times! She didn’t need to ‘possess a treasure and thus be guilty,’ because Xiaomeng’s Emperor Immortal Physique itself was a piece of precious jade that even those in the Ascension Realm would covet!

Although the Dragon Qi on her body could be concealed with Magic Treasures, making people think the Dragon Qi of mountains and rivers on her was just the Dragon Might of a flood dragon-type Magic Treasure,

Xiaomeng was only in the Dragon Gate Realm! If a battle occurred and she used Spells in front of Cultivators of the Upper Five Realms, no Magic Treasure would work!

And once the Emperor Immortal Physique was discovered! It would cause a frenzy among all Cultivators!

This was the finest Dual Cultivation body in the world! One could use her to prove their Great Dao—who would let that pass?!

“No, Master, I must go.”

“Xiaomeng…”

“Master, say no more!”

The young girl turned around and looked toward Luo City.

The imperial majesty in the girl’s eyes gradually manifested, and within that majesty, there was a complex tenderness.

“When I return next time, Qinger, even if I have to take him by force, I will come to snatch him away.

Sorry, Qinger, this time, Big Sister doesn’t want to give him up anymore.”
