At the bustling lantern festival, cheerful voices echoed one after another.
"Daddy! I want to raise it higher, higher!" She waved her little hands and pointed at the colorful lanterns hanging on both sides, her face flushed with excitement.
"Okay~"
"Daddy, I want this!" She pulled the corner of Emperor Zun's clothes again and pointed to a cute rabbit doll on the stall, her eyes full of longing.
"Buy~"
"Dad, I still want that!" Ye Xixi was as if visiting a temple fair for the first time, extremely curious about the prosperity of this world.
"Buy!" Emperor Zun looked at his daughter dotingly, paid the money with a happy face, and thoughtfully helped Ye Xixi hold the trophy.
I saw a candied haws in his left hand, a marshmallow in his right hand, and when he was done, he had to hold a sugar-painted figure between his fingers. This image made the five guardians completely dumbfounded!
They widened their eyes and looked at Emperor Zun in disbelief. Is this still the cold and serious Emperor they knew?
Not to mention they were stunned, even Huangfu Sihan was stunned, staring at Emperor Zun motionlessly with wide eyes.
Yeji followed Huangfu Sihan's eyes and saw only candied haws.
Seeing this, she directly picked up the candied haws on the side and handed it to Huangfu Sihan: "Want to eat it? I'll buy it for you!"
"Think!" Huangfu Sihan's eyes turned into starry eyes!
Before Ye Ji could finish paying, he couldn't wait to take a bite.
When the candied haws went into his mouth, it was sweet on the outside, but a little sour on the inside. After eating it, Huangfu Sihan's whole face wrinkled up with sourness.
"Isn't it very sour?" Ye Ji looked at it, fearing that Huangfu Sihan's teeth would be knocked out due to the soreness.
"It's not sour or sour, my mother gave it to me. It's very sweet and delicious~" Huangfu Sihan's eyes were filled with little stars.
As long as it is given by mother, no matter how sour it is, it is still sweet~
Next, everyone's itinerary was: whatever Emperor Zun bought for Ye Xixi, Ye Ji bought for Huangfu Sihan. The two little guys became the biggest winners of this lantern festival trip.
Seeing Emperor Zun patronizing Ye Xixi and not buying anything for Ye Ji, the guardian on the side was about to step forward to remind him when he saw He Feng and Bei Mingsu walking over with the most beautiful lanterns at the lantern festival.
I saw He Feng holding an exquisite rabbit lantern, walking up to Ye Ji, and saying softly: "Ji'er, this is for you!"
Bei Mingsu on the side was not to be outdone: "I won this, how about it? I'm good, right?"
Looking at the exquisite little lantern won by He Feng and Bei Mingsu, Ye Xixi and Huangfu Sihan unanimously praised it: "Wow~ it looks good."
"Like it? I'd like to give it to you~" Ye Ji said and gave two lanterns to Ye Xixi and Huangfu Sihan respectively.
As soon as Ye Xixi got the exquisite rabbit lantern, she couldn't wait to show it to Emperor Zun: "Dad, look at it, isn't it beautiful?"
This scene fell into Ye Ji's eyes, which was inexplicably sour.
"Thank you Uncle He, thank you Uncle Beiming." Huangfu Sihan thanked him politely and obediently.
After hearing this, Bei Mingsu subconsciously touched Huangfu Sihan's chubby little face: "You can't call me uncle, you have to call me uncle."
"Uncle?" Huangfu Sihan blinked with curious eyes.
As soon as these words came out, Ye Ji on the side was confused: "Why do I call you uncle?"
Suddenly, the string in Bei Mingsu's mind became inexplicably tight.
He almost forgot that Ye Ji didn't know yet...
Just when everyone was nervous, Ye Ji said with a look of realization: "Look at me, I have accepted Si Han as my godson!"
"It's my fault, I should call you uncle~" Ye Ji said, hugging Huangfu Sihan and teaching him to call him uncle Bei Mingsu.
Bei Mingsu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, feeling that he had almost caused a disaster!
"My dear nephew, this is a meeting gift from my uncle." Bei Mingsu gently tied a dragon-patterned jade pendant to Huangfu Sihan's body.
This jade pendant was carried by Bei Mingsu. It was engraved with lifelike dragon patterns, making it extremely precious.
Huangfu Sihan's eyes widened and he looked at the jade pendant curiously.
He had never received a gift from his uncle before, and his big eyes were shining with excitement at this moment.
"Thank you, uncle!" Huangfu Sihan's childish voice was full of gratitude.
Ye Xixi also ran forward impatiently, waving the jade pendant in her hand, and said cheerfully: "Brother's and mine are exactly the same~"
The brother and sister put the jade pendants together and compared them. They were indeed exactly the same, and they could form a complete circle. They were obviously a pair.
"Thank you, uncle~" Ye Xixi also thanked Bei Mingsu sweetly.
Being surrounded by two little guys enthusiastically thanking each other, Bei Mingsu felt a little overwhelmed.
He looked at the two little guys being obedient, and his heart was full of love and pampering.
Especially their eyes, which were big, round, black, and as cute as black grapes, made his heart melt.
"So good~" Bei Mingsu couldn't help but touch the little faces of Huangfu Sihan and Ye Xixi, his voice was full of tenderness and affection.
However, at this happy moment, a chilling atmosphere quietly filled the air.
Suddenly, a sound broke through the air, and several cold lights flashed.
Before Ye Ji could react, several hidden weapons were already speeding towards her.
Emperor Zun's eyes flashed coldly, he picked up Ye Ji and retreated as fast as the wind.
He Feng and Bei Mingsu also reacted and quickly stood in front of Ye Ji. They waved their swords and shot down the incoming hidden weapons one by one.
However, the attacks did not stop there.
Several men in black emerged from the crowd and rushed towards Ye Ji with sharp blades in hand.
When the five guardians saw him, they instantly emerged from the darkness and rushed towards the man in black in a coordinated manner.
Realizing that the other party was attacking him with spiritual power, the man in black's eyes were filled with shock.
"Are you spiritual masters?" One of the men in black exclaimed, obviously recognizing the identities of the five guardians.
"Not bad!" The Fire Protector nodded and looked at the man in black: "Are you from the Netherworld Dynasty?"
"Exactly!" After the man in black confirmed his identity, he quickly stopped attacking.
The spirit world and the Netherworld Dynasty have always been in harmony with each other. Today, the flood has really washed away the Dragon King Temple, almost damaging the peace between the two worlds.
Seeing the other party's admission, Protector Fire asked without hesitation: "Did your Netherworld Dynasty eat the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard? Why did you hurt my young master of the spirit world?"
"Young Master of the Spirit World?" When the man in black heard this, his eyes widened suddenly.
His eyes fell on the two milk dolls, and for a moment, he couldn't tell who was the young master of the spirit world.
The man in black cupped his fists and apologized: "Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! We received an order to kill this woman."
With that said, the man in black pointed at Ye Ji with his sword.
However, the next second, a cold light flashed through, like a laser, neatly cutting off the hand of the man in black holding the sword.
"Who gave you the courage to hurt this person!" Emperor Zun narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression indifferent and cold.
A powerful aura emanated from him, as if the entire space was enveloped in a chill.
Seeing that their leader was injured, the other men in black were about to rush forward angrily, but were stopped by the man in black with a severed hand.
He stared at the Emperor closely, his voice full of awe and speculation: "Your Excellency, are you the Emperor of the spirit world?"
"It is our Lord!" The voice of the Fire Protector was full of pride and loyalty!
After confirming his identity and knowing that he had offended someone he shouldn't have offended, the man in black endured the pain of a broken arm and half-knelt in the tunnel: "Emperor, please calm down. It seems that the information we received is wrong. We will Check it again and hope that the emperor will forgive me!"
Emperor Zun looked at him, with a sarcastic smile on his thin lips: "Go back and investigate carefully. If you dare to mess with this person, does your king not want to live?"
Although his voice was calm, the killing intent in it made the man in black tremble.
