Early the next morning.
Unable to resist his wife's urging, Niu Yuanping decided to return to the palace.
But.
When she saw the convoy of palace guards ready to set off, Yan Qianqian's eyes flashed lightly.
Then, she suddenly said to Niu Yuanping, "My husband is fast on his feet, how about you go back to the palace alone and I will be there soon?"
Hearing this, Niu Yuanping felt a little curious.
Why are you in such a hurry for me to go back first? …
Can't figure it out.
But I didn’t think much about it.
Of course, you can't leave your wife alone and go back first.
If something happens, you will regret it later!
You absolutely cannot do that,
So he shook his head and said: "It's not very peaceful in Dayan Kingdom recently... I don't trust the princess to leave my sight. If you want to go back, we will go back together."
"You can arrange for two demon-slayers to protect me. Husband, just relax and return home."
Continue to shake your head.
"No, I want to send the princess back to the palace myself!"
As a husband, it is of course his responsibility to protect his safety.
And he also knew very well that there were definitely a lot of monsters and ghosts lurking in the major cities in the Kingdom of Yan...
Even the Demon Suppression Division is not necessarily safe, let alone on the road!
Princess Yan Qianqian cannot be willful.
That’s why I said no decisively.
At this time, I saw Niu Yuanping speaking so firmly.
Yan Qianqian had no choice but to remain silent.
Then he compromised and said, "...Okay then."
Sensing that his wife's words and emotions today were a little strange... he asked, "Why is the princess unwilling to go with me?..."
Upon hearing this, Yan Qianqian immediately smiled and said, "What did your husband say? How could your wife not want to go with her husband?"
? I just want my husband to return to the palace to practice cultivation as soon as possible. It is a pity to waste time on the road..."
Niu Yuanping was thoughtful after hearing this.
After a long time, he smiled and said: "Although cultivation is important, we shouldn't rush it for a day or two? ... We just walk slowly on the road."
Yan Qianqian nodded lightly.
Then he cast his gaze on the waiting motorcade, and then said softly as if talking to himself: "It's a pity... that the Pegasus was frightened by the thunder... otherwise we could ride the Pegasus back to the palace... That would be much faster!”
Seeing that his wife was so anxious to return to the palace, Niu Yuanping even thought about the flying horse and strange beast that she had never ridden before.
Suddenly there was silence.
indeed.
You should arrive at the palace quickly by riding the Pegasus.
It's just that there is a demon-destroying barrier formation outside the palace, so the demonic beasts and horses may not dare to get too close.
The demon slayer never uses that kind of horse when entering the palace.
Niu Yuanping did not expect that the princess who had been growing up in the palace was quite familiar with the abilities and temperament of flying horses and strange beasts.
It's a pity that the power of thunder last night made the flying horses of the Demon Suppression Department tremble with fright, and their livers and gallbladders were broken.
There is really no way to drive it.
What's more... he really couldn't figure out what there was to be anxious about returning to the palace.
"You asked me to go first, and you are thinking about riding the Pegasus...what is it for?..."
Niu Yuanping couldn't understand.
So I had no choice but to persuade, "Princess, let's make do with it... Although this mortal horse is a bit slow, wouldn't it be better and more comfortable if you can enjoy the scenery on the way?"
Yan Qianqian said nothing.
She walked silently
The carriage got in.
Niu Yuanping saw that his wife was not in high spirits, and all he wanted to do was hurry back to the palace.
I didn’t dare to delay any longer and got into the carriage...
then.
Just like when he came, he was escorted by many palace guards and set off to leave the Demon Suppression Division.
However, after hitting the road, Niu Yuanping really felt that his wife's mood today was indeed a little different from the past...
It was obvious that she was a little anxious and impatient.
Keep urging the convoy to go faster...
In the past, she was always gentle and considerate. Since we got married, she has become even more considerate, neither impatient nor impatient. Even the naughty and willful behavior when we first met has disappeared...
Why did it change today?
"Did you be frightened by my cultivation appearance last night?..."
But judging from his demeanor, he didn't look like he was scared.
Niu Yuanping thought silently, "Is it because I miss my brother and father? Is that why I can't wait to return to the palace?..."
That's probably true.
Otherwise, why would you be in such a hurry to return to the palace?
So he comforted her and said, "The princess probably misses her father and brothers... Don't be anxious, we will see them soon."
Hearing this, Yan Qianqian looked at him.
He seemed to realize something.
She held Niu Yuanping's hand, her eyes flickered, and she smiled back, "Of course... I want to return to the palace as soon as possible because I miss my father and brother, but more importantly, I want my husband to advance to Yuan Dynasty as soon as possible." The realm of God.”
Hearing this, Niu Yuanping smiled and said, "Don't worry, princess! When I return to the palace, I will immediately pay my respects to my ancestor and ask him to teach me how to advance to the soul. I will never be lazy."
Yan Qianqian smiled,
:"That's good!"
…
At this time, Yan Beichen's eyes glowed with excitement in the ancestral cave of Prince Yan's Palace.
In the darkness, he started mumbling again.
"Hurry up! Hurry up..."
The reason why Yan Qianqian showed impatience was precisely because of his urgency and desire!
Yan Beichen hoped that Niu Yuanping would come to him soon.
The sooner this person is advanced to Yuanshen, the sooner he can realize his wish, repair himself, and break through bottlenecks!
After hundreds of years in this dark underground cave, enough has happened!
This treasure, Niu Yuanping, is about to return to the palace to receive final cultivation, so that the Ba Jue Lei Yuan Soul can evolve into the Ba Jue Lei Yuan Shen and become an extremely plump delicacy on his lips.
By eating him, you can repair the dilapidated Yuanshen that was rejected by Long Yuan and restore the out-of-control physical Yuanshen form.
How can I not be excited and joyful?
Can we not expect longing?
But then.
As if he had thought of something, another flash of thought flashed through Yan Beichen's excited eyes.
In the darkness, he said to himself, "But before that!...I have to make some preparations!...It's just that when making preparations, I need the complete concentration of the power of the soul...I'm afraid I won't be able to take into account the woman." The baby’s body has become…”
After pondering for a moment.
"That's all!... Then let's start at night!..."
After talking to himself, he closed his eyes again.
...The carriage procession in which the princess and her consort returned to the palace continued to move forward.
Soon, they passed a hill.
Very ordinary low hills.
Just on one side of the mountain road, there is a grape vine.
The guards walking by it could reach out and touch the tree.
Only its branches are seen
The leaves are luxuriant, and the branches cover the entire hill forest. The leaves are even more luxuriant and lush, with dark purple-red grapes hidden under the leaves. They grow big, round, and very full, and are crystal clear in the sun, like agate.
Seeing such delicious grapes, although the entourage was in a hurry, they couldn't help but pick a bunch of grapes nearby and taste them as they walked.
Kong Bailin, a palace guard, was one of the people who tasted grapes.
These grapes are indeed sweet!
It melts in your mouth, and before you chew it, it dissolves into a puddle of sugary water and slides down your throat.
But too sweet.
It even feels so sweet...
After eating one, Kong Bailin frowned.
Looking at the remaining bunch in his hand, he muttered, "What the hell...it tastes terrible!"
I immediately didn’t want to take another pill.
It sounds strange.
He actually tasted the smell of blood in the sweetness of the grapes!
It looks so tempting, but the taste is not that good...
So he gave the remaining grapes to the person next to him and said, "I'll give it to you to eat."
The person next to him threw it back with a look of disgust, "I don't want it! It tastes like a woman's menstrual cloth!"
Kong Bailin chuckled and joked, "You have such a strong taste! You've even tasted that stuff..."
While talking and laughing, they threw the grapes into the grass on the roadside.
It really doesn't taste very good...it's useless to keep it.
But there was no way to spit out what I had eaten. I could only simply drink some water and rinse my mouth.
Then he continued on his way.
However……
When the convoy is far away.
This extremely lush grapevine growing on the side of the road began to move!
I saw it shrinking its vines rapidly,
It burrowed into the soil and disappeared!
In the end, even the traces of earth extrusion were completely filled in and restored.
It's as if such a weird vine has never grown under this hill...
It instantly escaped and hid itself without a trace!
