183: Daoist partner? What's that?

Nangong Ruoxue shook her head slightly, "I just saw you shaking your head, so I asked you. After all, this is where you were born, so perhaps you'd be interested."

But Nangong Yu shook his head slightly, "If Sister Xue is interested, I'd be happy to accompany you, but if you're asking me, then there's no need."

"Oh, why?"

Nangong Ruoxue was surprised.

Nangong Yu shook his head slightly, his gaze fixed on the distance as he spoke leisurely, "I can't wait any longer. Sister Xue, you've been in the Mid-stage Spirit Venerable Realm for half a year. My Little Aunt can't stay in the Mortal Realm for long, so I plan to take you all to the Saint Domain to find Mother and the others!"

Nangong Ruoxue nodded slightly, then suddenly reacted, asking in surprise, "Xiao Yu, what did you mean when you mentioned Little Aunt just now?"

Nangong Yu blinked, then patted his head and laughed, "Look at my memory, I forgot to tell Sister Xue!"

Nangong Ruoxue blinked, not replying, waiting for Nangong Yu to continue.

Nangong Yu smiled and said, "Sister Xue, do you still remember what I said about the thing that attracted me in the Seven Emotions Secret Realm?"

"I remember!"

Nangong Ruoxue nodded, narrowing her eyes, "So, what attracted you was actually your Little Aunt?"

"Exactly!"

Nangong Yu nodded. Facing Nangong Ruoxue's confusion, he explained, "More than ten years ago, Little Aunt was accidentally swept into the Seven Emotions Secret Realm by a spatialTurbulence and was trapped for over a decade!"

"She was trapped in a formation and couldn't get out. She was also poisoned and fell into a deep sleep. Even if the Secret Realm opened this time, she probably wouldn't be able to leave."

"In this situation, in another two or three years, she would perish and completely disappear from this world."

"Perhaps it's for this reason, and because she's my Little Aunt, that I felt a connection and was drawn to go."

Hearing this, Nangong Ruoxue looked thoughtful, "Then Xiao Yu, you rescued Little Aunt? Is she alright?"

Nangong Yu nodded and smiled, "She's fine now. Not only that, but she also turned misfortune into a blessing and her cultivation stepped into the Peak Spirit Venerable Realm."

"However, because of this, she can only stay in my treasure for now and cannot appear in this Mortal Realm. This is also one of the reasons I want to enter the Saint Domain quickly!"

Hearing this, Nangong Ruoxue nodded slightly, "Since that's the case, let's go back and prepare, then head to the Saint Domain as soon as possible!"

At this point, Nangong Ruoxue suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but worry, "Xiao Yu, Second Imperial Aunt asked you to wait here for her to send someone to pick you up. She must be worried about your safety. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to go to the Saint Domain so rashly!?"

Nangong Yu shook his head slightly, "It shouldn't be. Besides, we've waited long enough. There's really no need to keep waiting!"

"To be precise, I miss Mother and the others, and I don't want to wait anymore!"

Hearing this, Nangong Ruoxue nodded slightly, seemingly understanding Nangong Yu's thoughts.

Speaking of Mother, she seemed to have gone wild playing with Xiao Yu and forgot to send a message to her mother.

She wondered... Nangong Ruoxue smiled bitterly in her heart. Did this count as having Xiao Yu and forgetting her mother?

She shook her head slightly, shaking off the inexplicable thoughts in her mind, and said, "Xiao Yu, when we go to the Saint Domain, can we bring my Imperial Concubine with us?"

"My Imperial Concubine isn't doing well in the palace. Now that we're going to the Saint Domain, I want to bring her along."

"Of course you can!"

Nangong Yu nodded, "Even if you didn't say it, I would have told you later anyway. After all, Aunt Qin will eventually go to the Saint Domain too."

"Instead of letting her go alone to face the unpredictable and treacherous Saint Domain, it's better for her to come with us, so we can also look out for each other."

Hearing this, Nangong Ruoxue's face lit up with joy, "Xiao Yu, you're really too good. I wonder which Fairy will benefit from you in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yu blinked, a hint of confusion in his eyes, "Sister Xue, you're mistaken, aren't you? Shouldn't it be, 'I wonder which scoundrel will benefit from the gentle and lovely Sister Xue in the future and become her Dao Companion?'"

"Tsk!"

Who knew that upon hearing this, Nangong Ruoxue shook her head disdainfully.

She hugged Nangong Yu's arm tightly and chuckled, "Dao Companion? What's that?"

"After seeing my Xiao Yu, I, your sister, can't look at anyone else. I've decided, from now on, I'll always stay by Xiao Yu's side and just be your dearest sister!"

Hearing this, Nangong Yu couldn't help but smile wryly, nodding slightly, "I'm still young and don't quite understand these things, but I support all of Sister Xue's decisions!"

"Hehe, then it's settled, alright? From now on, as long as I, your sister, doesn't leave, you're not allowed to chase me away!"

Nangong Ruoxue said with a smile, her eyes filled with intense joy, seemingly very happy!

Nangong Yu chuckled and nodded, smiling, "Don't worry, you're my Imperial Eldest Sister. I even want you to stay by my side forever so I can enjoy your sisterly warmth. How could I chase you away? And how would I dare to chase you away?!"

"Giggle!"

Nangong Ruoxue covered her mouth and chuckled, "Anyway, I don't care. If you dare to chase me away, I'll go find Second Imperial Aunt and Grandmother and have them whip you!"

Nangong Yu smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, that day will never come!"

As the two chatted and laughed, the flying boat had already arrived at Fuguang City's teleportation plaza.

On the teleportation plaza, there were few people, and only a handful of pedestrians. Although Fuguang City had a teleportation array, genuinely few could afford to use it!

At this time, upon seeing the Qingyou Imperial Family's flying boat arrive, everyone in the teleportation plaza's eyes subtly changed, forming small groups of two or three and discussing amongst themselves.

"It's the Qingyou Imperial Family's flying boat. Judging by the direction they came from, they must be the ones who went to the Seven Emotions Secret Realm!"

"I wonder how many people returned from the Seven Emotions Secret Realm this time, and how many went crazy from torment, or perhaps remained in the Secret Realm forever?"

"Who knows? The Seven Emotions Secret Realm opens once every hundred years, and the casualty rate isn't very high!"

"Yes, you should say, 'I wonder what opportunities those who went to the Secret Realm this time obtained?'"

"What else could it be? Nothing but Spirit Medicines and spiritual materials. These treasures seem to be the most common in the Seven Emotions Secret Realm!"

"Yes, though there are some who comprehend impressive Spirit Techniques during the trials, but that's rare."

"Indeed, as for the Seven Emotions Secret Realm rewarding Medicinal Pills, Cultivation Techniques, and Spirit Techniques, such things are almost nonexistent!"

"Who cares? Anyway, people like us shouldn't even think about it, we can't get in!"

"That's right, accept your fate!"

"…"

Everyone disembarked from the flying boat, and Prince Qin put it away. This was a special flying boat exclusively for the Qingyou Imperial Family's travels, applied for by them!

Prince Qin put away the flying boat and looked at Nangong Yu and Nangong Ruoxue, saying, "Alright, let's go! I heard the Emperor knows you're back and has been waiting outside the city for a while."

Hearing this, Nangong Yu felt a slight warmth in his heart and casually asked, "Fourth Imperial Grandfather, how are Imperial Uncle and the others?"

Hearing this, Prince Qin was slightly stunned, unsure how to begin speaking.

Seeing his reaction, Nangong Yu's heart tightened slightly, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
