lfill her infatuation."As soon as the words were spoken, all the guests present settled in, ready for a good show. Everyone knew how obsessed the foolish Princess of Dongyue was with King Xi Ming. The...During these five days, she missed him very much. She just couldn't understand why he had agreed to his older brother's request in the first place To say he wouldn't come see her and actually not come, it was as if she didn't hold any weight in his heart.

Okay, she admitted that she was being a bit dramatic after crossing over, but so what This was her first love!

"I miss you." Sensing her emotional shift, Jun Liye inhaled her faint fragrance and repeated it.

“Your Highness, Prince Regent of Beiling, please show some restraint. In broad daylight, how can a young woman like me be held by you like this If you don’t let go, don’t blame me for being impolite!” Su Ziyi's thousands-watt light bulb blinded everyone around him; he simply couldn't bear it anymore, his facial muscles trembling with fury.

He ruined the good atmosphere. Su Qingying poked her little head out from Jun Liye's embrace and ruthlessly said, "Brother Emperor, the hunt is about to start, you should go prepare first. Don't disturb me and Ari from falling in love here, you're such a mood killer."

Su Ziyi: "..."

Wow, was he being rejected Is he now considered superfluous They're so eager to get rid of him, how much do they dislike him

In the distance, Xuan Yuan Che rode a black steed, smiling wryly as he watched them play. A dull pain swept through his heart.

Xuan Yuan Mo came to his back, following his line of sight, his brows moved slightly, and he said in a light tone: "Xiao Qi, what are you looking at"

“Second brother, do you know Once, I looked down on her and wished I never saw her again. But when she stopped following me and threw herself into another man's arms, I realized what I had lost” Xuan Yuan Che said despondently, his eyes glazed over as a vision of Su Qingying doggedly trailing behind him flashed before his eyes.

No matter where he was, she would squeeze her way through the crowd to get to him, even if he disliked her... But now, he finally realized, it was too late. She had resolutely left him.

After a pause, he continued, his gaze unfocused and his expression dazed, "It's a pity that by the time I realized how important she was to me, I had already lost the right to pursue her."

Xuan Yuan's eyebrows twitched, he sighed inwardly, and said, "Do you regret it"

"What's the use of regret What's the point of not regretting it Now she has better people by her side." Xuan Yuan Che's smile was full of sarcasm, his deep eyes suppressing something heavily.

Huan Yuan Luo Chen didn't know where he rode his crimson horse to their side, listening to Huan Yuan Che's words verbatim. His deep amber eyes narrowed, revealing a subtle gleam, "Humph, is this woman worthy of your liking"

“Big Brother, you have never loved a person. If you had someone you loved, you wouldn't say such things. You would feel that every move she made could stir your thoughts, and you would unconsciously pay attention to her, thinking about her.” Xuan Yuan Che abruptly looked up at him, took a deep breath, and the bitterness in his heart surged like waves.

"Love and family ties will only ruin the country and destabilize the people, clouding one's judgment. I would rather not have them." Xuan Yuan Luo Chen glanced at him with a cold expression, his eyes suppressing the pain within. He casually flicked his sleeve robes, coldly stating that he couldn't understand such a ridiculous notion at all.

The atmosphere suddenly turned cold. Xuan Yuan Mo quickly changed the subject to liven things up, smiling and saying, “Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. The hunt is about to begin soon, Xiao Qi, are you going to participate”

"Of course, I haven't gone hunting with my two elder brothers in a long time. How could I miss this rare opportunity today" Xuan Yuan Che wasn't someone who was always lost in the past. Since it was already gone, he might as well be carefree and bury that feeling deep in his heart.

"Alright, today the three of us brothers shall have a good spar!" After collecting his ink-wash fan, Xuan Yuan Mo sat on horseback, his face brimming with eagerness.

"Ooo—oooo—" A melodious horn blared across the hunting ground, waking up the princes from various nations and their representatives. They mounted their steeds one by one, ready for the competition.

For them, this Quad Summit was an important opportunity to showcase their national strength and capabilities. No one dared to take it lightly.

Xuan Yuan Lu Chen rode his steed, speaking in a cold voice. His deep inner strength caused his words to carry for miles, clearly reaching everyone's ears. "Today, the much-anticipated Four Nations Grand Ceremony will be held at Mingyun Mountain. As always, whoever hunts the most prey in six hours will be victorious. The battlefield is unforgiving; I do not wish for anyone to be injured, and no secret attacks are allowed. Those who violate this rule, Xi Ming will pursue to the very end!"

"Ah~ let's get started already, I'm sunburnt to death! What's the point of all this talk So many old gossips!" Su Qingying ignored the strange looks from the crowd and lay on her horse like a shrimp.

The sun beat down mercilessly, and the people around her whispered amongst themselves. On her left, Su Ziyixing's nagging wouldn't cease. Su Qingying truly wanted to kick that endlessly chattering emperor right off his throne!

This is so freaking annoying!

Jun Liye gently urged his internal energy beside her, Su Qingying suddenly felt a sense of comfort throughout her whole body and mind. She changed her position to lie on the horse's back, looking at that peerlessly handsome demon, her phoenix eyes shone brightly, "A-Li, is it you"

Jun Liye knew what she was asking, his blood-red eyes glimmered, and a faint smile played on his lips, "Hmm."

"Ali, I'm not hot anymore, you can take it back," Su Qingying thought of the toxins suppressed in his body by internal force, she quickly asked him to withdraw his internal force, she wasn't that weak yet.

"Hmm." Seeing the fine beads of sweat on her smooth forehead, Jun Liye frowned, a hint of pain in his eyes that couldn't be ignored. Yet, he also knew his body couldn't withstand this kind of torment from him.

After waiting for what felt like an eternity, Xuan Yuan Luo Chen remained silent, his lips barely moving. Su Qing Ying, unable to bear the silence any longer, stretched her neck and shouted loudly, "West Ming Emperor, aren't you thirsty"

What you're really saying is, shut your yap! Enough already!

“.....” Xuan Yuan Luo Chen’s voice came to an abrupt halt. Silence fell, the atmosphere eerily still.

There were all sorts of strange noises coming from below. Countries worldwide held back their laughter with great difficulty, like they'd been constipated for days and couldn't let it out. They wanted to laugh, but they had to save face for Xuan Yuan Luo Chen and couldn't bring themselves to smile, truly agonizing.

Jun Li Ye Su Zi Yi's mouth twitched, a smile flashing in his eyes.

This girl, she's probably the first one who dares to interrupt a country's emperor and secretly scolds him for being long-winded! She's really brave!

"Hahaha… Little girl, you’ve voiced what we all feel. This palace also thinks that Xi Ming Huang spoke a bit too much." Shangguan Jinghong wasn't as polite. He shook his jade bone fan with a laugh that was loud and unrestrained, not giving the slightest regard to face. He laughed so openly, as if afraid no one would hear him.

Everyone glanced at Xuen Yuan Luo Chen's face, it was so dark, simply unbearable to look at! These two devils really dared to provoke anyone!

Upon hearing Shangguan Jinghong's flattering greeting, Su Qingying instantly felt energized. She straightened her spine and spoke confidently: "Of course! You, the Western Hades, are standing in the shade, so you wouldn't be tired. We, however, are standing under this scorching sun, baking like meat on a grill. Our skin is practically peeling off by layers! So just cut to the chase, no need for pleasantries. Get straight to the point!"

"...Xuanyuan Luocheng, inexplicably having a top hat placed on his head by someone."monic bloodlust and cruelty completely exceeded their imagination!After a long pause, Shangguan Jinghong rose from his seat and gave Jun Liye a approving glance. He laughed with glee, "Well done! Kill...
