“I do!”
Tang Xi felt her cheeks heating up right after her words. She didn’t know why it was all she had thought about previously. There had been many suitors over the years, but none who she had taken an interest in.
Perhaps fate had finally knocked on her door. This man lent a helping hand at the most crucial moment and she found herself remembering him. It was an indescribable feeling, but it was definitely a great feeling. She knew it was important and was ready to try.
Although Hao Tian had seen an inkling of desire in Tang Xi to follow them, he was still nervous when he asked, especially since there was a hint of ambiguity behind his words. However, upon hearing her answer, along with her expression, Hao Tian was agitated. Clasping both hands together, he bent at his waist and said, “Thank you!”
Tang Xi smiled after being startled for a short moment, but she was even more embarrassed now. It really wasn’t easy to meet someone who returned your feelings and she distinctively felt that this was fate.
The Exploding Arrow Battle God laughed and said, “Young lad, not bad at all. Our Xi’er has never taken interest in any men all these years. You better treasure her.”
“Don’t worry, Elder. I’ll care for her as I would my own heart,” Hao Tian answered seriously.
Qing Shui was stunned. This phrase was the same as one from his previous life, a mushy phrase that claimed the other person was their darling…
Tang Xi’s face was flushed beet red. At this moment, Beihuang Fan approached her and held her. Their business here was almost done now. Several members of the Divine Palace were envious of Hao Tian. The most beautiful lady of the Divine Palace had been claimed just like that…
Hao Tian didn’t bother choosing the last person to bring along, causing Tang Xi to stare wide-eyed at him once again. He was being too obvious, choosing anyone was better than choosing no one…
At last, Tang Xi was the only one who chose to leave, leaving the remaining slot empty. Tang Xi didn’t have any relatives here and while she had friends, they weren’t close. This was because there were far too few women at the Divine Palace and the men all had a motive. Although they didn’t do anything overboard,Tang Xi had chosen to live independently and stayed solo. She dedicated all her time to train.
Tang Xi bid the Exploding Arrow Battle God and the others farewell, seemingly reluctant to part. Among everyone, she had the closest relationship with the Exploding Arrow Battle God, like father and daughter. The elderly Battle God had also taken care of her as he would his own daughter.
Even though they hadn’t lingered for long, it was time to leave. The Exploding Arrow Battle God and the others sent Qing Shui on their way out of Boulder City.
Qing Shui’s faction had now added the Heavenly Dance Battle God.
Tang Xi, who had just joined them, was curious about everything. For example, people like Shen Huang and Beihuang Fan. Knowing they were both Qing Shui’s wives was also shocking to her. To her, Qing Shui wasn’t striking, and wasn’t a match to Hao Tian in terms of appearance. Qing Shui seemed gentle and reserved but had the Extreme Yang Body.
Perhaps beauty was really in the eye of the beholder. She had set her sights on Hao Tian and naturally thought him as decent.
Even so, comparing herself to Beihuang Fan and Shen Huang, she did find herself lacking. She had always had an inferiority complex, but the sight of the two women shocked her; she didn’t expect that anyone could be this beautiful and flawless.
Qing Shui contributed much towards Hao Tian’s happiness. He gave Hao Tian a few of his own medicinal pills and had him pass them on to Tang Xi. One must seize the opportunity when the time was ripe. Gifting these things didn’t mean much, but it was a gesture. It was just like giving accessories in his previous life.
However, those accessories weren’t valuable in the Nine Continents. The Nine Continents were based on power, hence, the items Qing Shui gave Hao Tian were akin to the exorbitant diamond rings from his previous life…
Qing Shui didn’t plan on visiting every single location as it would be a difficult ideal to accomplish. From the Exploding Arrow Battle God, he got to know that there weren’t any Divine Palaces and Demon Gates here. The Forsaken Earth Region’s city had a Demon Gate but didn’t have a Divine Palace. It was said that the latter was destroyed three hundred years ago.
Hence, Qing Shui decided to approach the region’s city and take a look. Where there was a Demon Gate, his thoughts would drift to Tantai Lingyan. He really hoped she’d be there but was disappointed every time. Even so, he knew they’d meet again someday.
