245: Chapter 245
"I never expected this potion to have such a use; this is a huge surprise."
With Ji Rushuang as his endorsement, Ji Dakun immediately straightened his back.
"Revered Lei, I told you long ago that there must be a misunderstanding. Her Highness the Princess has very sharp eyes."
"I am the bigger person and will not hold a grudge. Let's just pretend that your slanderous accusations from just now never happened."
Lei Luo was speechless. He had been turned the tables on, and seeing Ji Dakun's smug, petty expression made him furious.
He really couldn't understand why Ji Rushuang would speak up for Ji Dakun. All signs pointed to the fact that it definitely wasn't that simple.
"Oh no, could it be that Her Highness the Princess has developed feelings for him? Is this a distortion of human nature, or a loss of morality?"
"They are actually colluding together. It is very likely that the Princess has already lost her virginity."
Lei Luo immediately changed his attitude, bowing to Ji Dakun with a fake smile that didn't reach his eyes.
"Young Master Kun, please forgive me. Just now, your subordinate was very worried about the Princess's safety, and in my haste, I acted rashly and offended you."
Ji Dakun was filled with triumph, feeling absolutely delighted inside.
In front of Ji Rushuang, he still had to maintain his previous persona.
"It's fine. We are all serving His Majesty the Xuan Emperor."
Ji Dakun deliberately moved closer to Ji Rushuang. He felt it was because she had drunk the potion; otherwise, Ji Rushuang surely wouldn't be this obedient.
Since that was the case, things would be much simpler from now on. He could continue serving the Xuan Emperor, and conquering Ji Rushuang was just around the corner.
Taking down Ji Rushuang and slowly encroaching upon the Xuantian Sect—these two things could be done simultaneously.
The most important thing now was to find out who was impersonating the Xuan Emperor, secretly rescuing Ji Rushuang, and then sneaking her back.
Suddenly, the worn-out lotus platform stuck in Ji Rushuang's cleavage caught Ji Dakun's attention once again.
Ever since Dreamscape Mountain, she had kept it with her at all times, which was truly baffling.
Ji Rushuang quickly covered her chest: "Presumptuous! Do you not want your eyes anymore? How dare you blaspheme This Princess? Is that a place for you to look?"
Ji Dakun quickly looked away: "Please forgive me, Your Highness. Your subordinate was just curious why you insist on carrying this worn-out lotus platform wherever you go."
"It is just a rotten stone with nothing special about it. Why does the Princess treat it like a treasure?"
Ji Rushuang revealed a hint of ferocity: "If you dare to speak any more nonsense, This Princess will cut off your tongue immediately."
"Revered Lei, are you not going to set off to return to the Sect? Do you want to spend the New Year here?"
"Yes..."
Lei Luo whistled, and four attendants arrived carrying a luxurious sedan chair, with two rows of cranes clearing the way in front.
The group flew into the sky, leaving Ji Dakun standing in the wind, feeling completely bewildered.
Ji Rushuang seemed to favor him, yet she didn't give him a pleasant look; he really couldn't make heads or tails of it.
It seemed that only by finding the mastermind impersonating the Xuan Emperor could he unravel all the confusion. Looking across the Immortal Realm, there were only a handful of people with the ability to impersonate him in front of him.
Not long after leaving Kunpeng Mountain, Ji Rushuang pushed open the small window of the sedan chair.
"Revered Lei, This Princess is a bit tired. You all continue on your way and must not disturb me."
"Yes, your subordinate obeys."
Ji Rushuang took the lotus platform from her cleavage, silently recited an incantation, and climbed inside, wanting to have one last round with Xiao Bai before returning.

"Eh? Why are you back in here? Do you not plan on going back?"
Ji Rushuang kept casting flirtatious glances at Xiao Bai, a very obvious hint.
"Stop blinking. I know what you mean. Do you want to have one more round before going back?"
Ji Rushuang nodded vigorously, like a chick pecking at rice.
"Mm, Brother, come and ravage me quickly."
Xiao Bai sighed: "You really are addicted. Don't you ever get tired?"
"Hurry up and go, don't let the cat out of the bag."
Since soft tactics wouldn't work, she resorted to hard ones; Ji Rushuang directly threatened him.
"You dare to refuse me? Those who grovel at the feet of This Princess could line up from here to the Xuantian Sect."
"We are about to return soon. I will give you one more chance. Otherwise, This Princess will take the lotus platform to the Xuantian Sect, and you will never be able to return to the Lower Realm for the rest of your lives."
This was the first time Xiao Bai had seen such a tough threat; he immediately softened and surrendered.
"Your Highness must have misheard. What I said just now was 'let's hurry up and do it.' As long as you are happy, I will cooperate however you want."
It ended hastily after ten minutes or so; he didn't dare to continue, fearing they would arrive directly at the Xuantian Sect.
Ji Rushuang quickly left the lotus platform and returned to the sedan chair. She even deliberately stretched, and after opening the small window, the magnificent architectural complex of the Xuantian Sect came into view.
"Stop! This Princess wants to relieve herself."
Lei Luo didn't react for a moment. In his impression, the noble Princess Rushuang would never say such crude words, nor would she want to relieve herself in public.
"Is what This Princess says not effective? Stop immediately."
Lei Luo quickly shouted: "Stop for a moment."
"Please, Your Highness, endure it for a little while longer. We are about to return to the Sect, and doing this is indecorous."
"Are you trying to teach This Princess how to do things? Everyone turn around and look away. This Princess will be done in a moment."
Ji Rushuang was very clear about the current situation. If she didn't call for a stop immediately, they would enter the Xuantian Sect's territory in less than two minutes.
By then, trying to get the lotus platform out would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Ji Rushuang flicked the surface of the worn-out lotus platform with her index finger a few times.
"You two aren't proactive at all. These days have been a waste of effort; you aren't even coming out to say goodbye."
Receiving the signal, Xiao Bai and Huo Linger hurriedly walked out, standing on the lotus platform like tiny flies.
Xiao Bai bowed with his hands cupped: "Your Highness, please take care. There will be plenty of time in the future; we shall meet again if fate allows."
Ji Rushuang looked on with anticipation: "What's wrong with you, little guy? Big Sister is leaving, and you have no reaction at all?"
"I wish you get pregnant soon. I need to slip away quickly; I'm afraid you two will want to have another round later."
"You..." Ji Rushuang almost couldn't catch her breath, instantly feeling dizzy.
"It is impossible for me to get pregnant in this lifetime. This little thing is a real jinx."
Ji Rushuang pointed to the towering mountains beneath her feet and instructed: "Later, I will throw the lotus platform over there. You can follow the beam of light as thick as a finger to return to the Lower Realm."
Xiao Bai's vision was blocked by a sea of green; he couldn't see any light at all.
"Where? Is there something wrong with my eyes?"
Ji Rushuang pulled a crystal flake from her chest; she always liked to hide things there, no wonder she was getting fuller.
"Use this and place it in front of your eyes, and you will be able to see clearly. That is the channel for Spiritual Qi from the Lower Realm flying to the Immortal Realm. This is the only one within a radius of thousands of miles."
"Remember, you must enter the lotus platform to cast the spell; that is the safest way. Otherwise, your spellcasting will easily generate Demonic Qi, which will attract the Immortal Realm patrol soldiers."
"Understood! We shall meet again."
Xiao Bai decisively climbed inside. Ji Rushuang picked up the lotus platform with her right hand, spun rapidly in place, and threw it with all her might.
Then she quickly rejoined the team and followed Lei Luo back to the Xuantian Sect.
Xiao Bai and Huo Linger hurriedly flew to the pavilion observation deck; only from here could they see the situation outside.
The lotus platform was falling rapidly. Xiao Bai placed the crystal flake over his right eye. Sure enough, a green light appeared in the valley, clearly paler than the surrounding green, shooting straight into the clouds and easy to distinguish.
If he hadn't used this item, Xiao Bai, as part of the Yao Race, definitely wouldn't have been able to see it.
"The direction is about to deviate. Turn forty-five degrees to the right."
"Yes, yes, keep it steady in that direction."
Xiao Bai kept directing Huo Linger to pilot the lotus platform, anxious and incredibly excited.
"Stop shouting already! My ears are about to explode. I can see that green light."
Xiao Bai felt annoyed: "Damn, you didn't say so earlier."
"Damn, you didn't ask either. Look at how excited you are."
At this moment, the long-lost voice of the Little Cute Girl System came into Xiao Bai's mind.
Since Huo Linger could see the green light, there was no need for him to get in the way here.
"You drive slowly. Don't take the wrong path; it's very dangerous."
"I'm going to the room to take a poop-poop first."
Huo Linger waved her hand impatiently and continued to keep her eyes on the front, controlling the direction.
Xiao Bai quickly returned to the room and closed the door. He hadn't heard the Little Cute Girl System's voice for a long time and missed it dearly.
"What is it? Why are you suddenly looking for me at this time?"
[I am pregnant.]
Xiao Bai's eyes widened, his mouth hung open, his brows knitted together, and his expression was dazed.
"Aren't you an AI? How can you be pregnant? Stop joking!"
[I'm not lying to you. Ever since that time I Took Human Form and went crazy with you, I felt physically unwell when I returned to work. Another month later, I was diagnosed as pregnant.]
[I am real, but the System Bureau has explicit regulations that I can only communicate with the host using my voice.]
[If I hadn't promised you, why would I have Taken Human Form and let you take advantage of me?]
[I didn't expect to actually get pregnant. In two more months, the child will be born.]
Xiao Bai asked curiously: "Did you get an ultrasound? Is it a human or a snake?"
[For now, it seems to be human form, and it's twins. According to the System Bureau's regulations, the offspring of staff members must also work here.]
