What is worth celebrating is that the Third Highness finally has extra guest rooms in his home. Not only does Xiaojiu Ache get one each, but Ge Sheng finally doesn't have to sleep in the same bed as the Third Highness.
Although Ge Sheng personally does not dislike this matter.
The young man from the shore of the holy lake lay quietly on the bed, staring at the ceiling, unable to sleep.
If you want to count carefully, this is the third time he has lived here. After the Eternal Night City incident, he also went to Ye Ye College with his senior sister once to help her complete her coursework certificate, but that time it took half a day to come back and forth. Since they are not there, they naturally have no chance to stay in the Xiang Pavilion of His Highness the Third Prince.
He also suffered from insomnia the first time, but at that time he was faced with the hesitation and discomfort caused by the huge distance between him and Xiaojiu. As for this time, he was not anxious about tomorrow's exam.
Just not tired.
Last night he was poisoned by the narcotic toxin of Seven Convolvulus and fell asleep for almost a day and night. But today, he met His Highness the Third Prince, Ao Xuehua, met Lan Che, and reunited with Ye Xiaojiu.
As expected, Her Royal Highness the Princess has not changed at all.
The willful girl is always so energetic.
You still like it, don’t you?
Yes, still, I am looking forward to growing up with this princess. I’m looking forward to the days ahead.
Ge Sheng opened his black eyes. The moonlight was very good, shining through the window lattice as if clear mercury columns were flowing in the air.
Ge Sheng stood up happily, put on his clothes, floated up using the levitation technique, and jumped out with his hands on the edge of the window.
The moon is half hanging in the light dark night sky, the stars are shining brightly, and the cool wind is blowing. It is really an excellent moonlight.
Ge Sheng's second glance saw the girl.
She sat quietly on the ridge of the roof, her soft long aqua hair draped around her body like a second robe, her bare feet, and her small toes were as smooth and slender as two white lotuses in full bloom.
The Ninth Princess of Lanye hugged her knees in this moonlight, quietly gazing at the night sky alone. Under the cold moonlight, the girl's eyes were as clear as a deep pool of aqua blue autumn water.
Then Ye Qing turned his head slightly, without showing any surprise expression, and just said softly: "Brother."
"You're here."
Obviously there was no invitation or hint to Ge Sheng, but at this time, Xiao Jiu seemed to have been waiting for Ge Sheng here for a long time.
At night, the Ninth Princess, who was full of vitality during the day, was as quiet as the night, and she really looked like a princess of an empire.
"Yes." Ge Sheng also came to Ye Qing's side and sat down: "The weather is very good tonight."
"Yes." Ye Qing stretched out his hand towards the sky, as if to grab the endless starlight:
"I have always liked the night, the coolness, the soft time of stars and bright moon."
"When I was by the Holy Lake, my favorite thing every night was to sit on the eaves and look at the night sky, because I had nothing better to do."
"It's really beautiful. When the stars and moon shadows intersect with the reflections on the holy lake, I feel like I'm in the middle of the starry sky."
"Then you can't find yourself."
"I had already fallen into a deep sleep when the City of Eternal Night opened. When I opened my eyes, I saw that I was trapped in the light shield, and you were all looking at me from the other side, your eyes were so anxious." Ye Qing When he continued to speak, the content was about the incident half a year ago.
"It was such a beautiful night, but I felt very, very, very scared."
"It's not the fear that I will be killed myself, but the fear of seeing any of you die in front of me."
"I once watched my mother die in front of me, so I never want to touch death with my own hands again." Ye Qing braced his knees and stood up, standing barefoot on the slippery ridge of the roof.
"So at that time, I did something that is a bit crazy even if I think about it now, maybe it was inevitable."
Then Ye Qing smiled and faced Gou Yue. His proud and powerful confident smile was so beautiful that it made Ge Sheng lose his mind: "So I want to get power, to get enough power to protect all the people I cherish, and no longer be helpless. Looking at the starry sky through the mask of light that scares me."
"You too, be it Sister Xuehua, be it father, be it the evil-minded Xiche, I won't let any of you leave me, and I don't want to feel the feeling of being weak and helpless and unable to do anything. .”
"So I came here, this city and college where the saint sleeps."
"tomorrow."
"No matter what is in front of me, even if it is a god, I will try to kill it."
Ge Sheng was so captured by such a girl that he was almost speechless. Even though he had the power of another saint, he could not say such proud words. Such a girl really had an indescribable and powerful charm.
Then, the girl with long aqua hair slipped and fell down with a low scream.
As I said, the roof is slippery.
Ge Sheng looked at the delicate girl who fell in his arms like an ice doll. Just at the critical moment, he stepped forward and pulled Ye Qing back who lost his balance: "Hey, why are you so careless?"
"No, brother." Ye Qing lay in Ge Sheng's arms and didn't bother to get up. "I just thought, if this is all a dream of mine, then where will you be after waking up from the dream?"
Ge Sheng looked at Ye Qing's sculpted face and replied with a smile without thinking, "I thought I would sit next to you like this, waiting for you to wake up."
…
…
Under the huge cold moon, the unrelated brother and sister sat quietly together and looked at the distant night sky, extremely quiet and beautiful.
And if you raise your vision, you will see nearly a hundred big blue birds flying over this magical city of ice and snow even in the middle of the night. Those hippogryphs tamed by the elves are under the control of humans. Protect this city all the time.
Of course, it is impossible for such precious monsters to patrol the sky over the city in such numbers day and night. The only explanation is that this great academy that can make the whole world tremble has sacrificed for Ye Ye’s third trial tomorrow. Huge energy.
However, at the end of the orderly street, in the huge white academy, dozens of towering white towers stand, as if countless huge smooth white stone pillars have been standing there since the birth of heaven and earth. The tallest among those towers is almost directly In the sky, even hippogryphs can effortlessly circle around the tower, as if flying around the elf tribe's eternal tree, which is so majestic and magnificent that it reaches the limit of human imagination.
This leaf tower is 333 feet high, making it the tallest building on the continent. The reason why it is not built higher is simply because the saint felt that it was not necessary.
At this time, at the top of the leaf tower, an old man with white hair and white beard was also looking at the crooked moon in the sky - the crescent moon closest to the sky was incredibly big - and murmured to himself: " I’m really looking forward to the performance of that princess tomorrow, and the descendant of Xia.”
