The Young Miss in an apricot-yellow dress had an apricot-shaped face, peach-blush cheeks, bright eyes, and white teeth.
She looked lively and agile, like a small deer in the forest.
Although she didn't possess the kind of peerless beauty that could overthrow kingdoms, she had the charming cuteness of a girl next door.
"Mingzhu."
Seeing the Young Miss, Tantai Qingxuan smiled.
The Young Miss was named Tantai Mingzhu, and she was also a Prodigy of the Tantai Imperial Clan.
She was Tantai Qingxuan's cousin, and their relationship was also very good.
"I see that Big Sister Qingxuan is restless, she must be hiding something in her heart, let me guess…"
Tantai Mingzhu clasped her small hands behind her back, like an old scholar, squinting her beautiful eyes, sizing up Tantai Qingxuan.
Then she suddenly clapped her hands and said,
"Oh, Mingzhu knows!"
"Knows what?" Tantai Qingxuan said with a smile.
"Big Sister Qingxuan, you're lovesick!" Tantai Mingzhu revealed the secret in one sentence.
"You little imp, you're asking for a beating!" Tantai Qingxuan spat at Tantai Mingzhu, a blush rising on her creamy face.
"See, Mingzhu guessed correctly, let me think."
"Could it be that Big Sister Qingxuan met her destined one in that lower Realm she stayed in before?"
"Just like in the storytellers' tales, where a noble Young Miss meets a low-level Young man."
Tantai Mingzhu's eyes shifted as she spoke.
Upon hearing this, Tantai Qingxuan was slightly stunned.
It seemed like a long time had passed since she had thought of Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao was her best friend whom she had met in the Qingyang World.
And he was also a Young man she greatly admired.
Although it was far from love.
There was indeed a faint, almost imperceptible good feeling.
However, after leaving the Qingyang World.
Tantai Qingxuan believed that it would be very difficult for her to see Chu Xiao again.
After all, the gap in status between her and Chu Xiao was simply too great.
And only a year had passed.
It was impossible for her to go find Chu Xiao immediately.
Chu Xiao should also not have the strength to leave the Qingyang World to find her.
Therefore, Tantai Qingxuan gradually let go of this thought.
Of course…
Logically speaking, it should have been this way.
But Tantai Qingxuan, unwilling to admit, and also not having thought of, was that…
Another figure began to leave faint imprints in her heart.
Although it hadn't reached the point of so-called admiration.
The impression was indeed extremely good.
For a Young Master of such peerless grace, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that other women would fall in love at first sight.
And Tantai Qingxuan considered herself to be very reserved.
But even so, the impression in her heart was difficult to erase.
So this time, Tantai Qingxuan tried to send someone to invite Jun Xiaoyao.
Seeing Tantai Qingxuan's slightly dazed expression.
Tantai Mingzhu tilted her head and said, "Eh, did I guess wrong? Could it be that Big Sister Qingxuan, you are thinking of that Young Lord Jun Xiaoyao?"
When Young Lord Jun Xiaoyao was mentioned, Tantai Mingzhu's beautiful eyes lit up with a bright glow.
"No, not at all." Tantai Qingxuan immediately retorted.
"Oh, really? Didn't that Young Lord Jun Xiaoyao save your life at the Fengshen Stele?"
"A handsome, powerful, and noble Young Lord…" Tantai Mingzhu's mind began to fantasize.
Scenes of a domineering Young Lord falling in love with her began to emerge.
"You little hussy!" Tantai Qingxuan bit her lip.
"Hehe, if Big Sister Qingxuan doesn't care, then Mingzhu will gladly accept!"
"Even if it's just to be Young Lord Jun Xiaoyao's concubine, it would be a blessing, wouldn't it?" Tantai Mingzhu said with a giggle.
Tantai Qingxuan, however, said nothing.
Let Tantai Mingzhu be with him…
For some reason, thinking of this possibility, Tantai Qingxuan felt a strange sensation in her heart.
She was the one who met him first…
…
As time passed, the news of the Tantai Imperial Clan Ancient Ancestor's birthday banquet also spread throughout the Boundary.
An Ancient Ancestor's birthday banquet for an Imperial Clan was no small matter.
Forces from all directions had to come to pay their respects and offer birthday wishes, which had a great impact.
And this news, in its widespread circulation, also reached the Qingyang World.
The Qingyang World was precisely the Realm where Tantai Qingxuan had stayed for a long time before.
Deep within the Chu Clan Ancestral Land in the Qingyang World.
Golden light was resplendent, and the power of Origin surged.
A Young man sat cross-legged within it.
He was heroic and vigorous, with black hair flowing, and his entire being exuded the aura of a Dragon and a tiger, his Qi incredibly powerful.
It was precisely the Lord of the Qingyang World, Chu Xiao!
"A year has passed in the blink of an eye." Chu Xiao's eyes were deep, carrying a hint of nostalgia.
He remembered that peerless figure in a plain dress.
Tantai Qingxuan!
Although only a year had passed, it didn't seem like a long time.
But don't forget, Chu Xiao possessed the temporal treasure, the Qiankun Gourd.
And within the Qiankun Gourd, there was a Universe World.
Although only one year had passed in the outside world.
For Chu Xiao, three or four hundred years had already passed!
This amount of time, for a Cultivator, might not be too long.
But it definitely couldn't be said to be short.
Possessing the Origin power of the Qingyang World allowed Chu Xiao to use the Universe World almost without limit.
He had also been staying in the Universe World.
The purpose was to have enough time to Cultivate frantically and catch up with Tantai Qingxuan.
And now.
Chu Xiao finally had that confidence!
At this moment, the Qi on his body was incredibly profound.
His Cultivation Realm had astonishingly reached the Great Heavenly Venerate Realm!
From Supreme to Great Heavenly Venerate, Chu Xiao had crossed two stages within a year!
If this were to spread, it would definitely shock all directions.
Of course, strictly speaking, Chu Xiao had Cultivated for three or four hundred years in the Universe World before Breakthrough two Great Realms.
He could be considered a genius, but definitely not an anomaly or a Prodigy.
However, to the outside world, Chu Xiao had only used one year.
"With my current Cultivation Realm, I am enough to compare with the peerless Prodigies of the Eight Great Emperor Clans."
"Qingxuan, I can finally be considered worthy of you." A smile appeared on Chu Xiao's face.
Although in terms of background and influence, he was far from comparable to Tantai Qingxuan.
But at least, in terms of Cultivation Realm, he had completely caught up.
Chu Xiao also had the confidence that even against an Emperor Clan Prodigy, he had the belief to win.
Within his body, a vast World seemed to be operating, which was the Qingyang World.
During the three or four hundred years of Cultivating in the Universe World.
Chu Xiao had also completely refined the Origin of the Qingyang World.
At this moment, it was as if he was the Qingyang World, and the Qingyang World was him.
Moreover, after learning that their Chu Clan's ancestors were a branch of the Chu Clan Emperor Clan.
Chu Xiao no longer held such reverence for the Eight Great Emperor Clans.
In terms of Bloodline, he was not bad either.
"An Ancient Ancestor of the Tantai Imperial Clan is holding a birthday banquet; this must be the reason Qingxuan returned to her clan."
"If I go find her now, I wonder what expression she will show."
"Will she be joyful? Will she be happy? Is she also missing me?" Chu Xiao murmured in his heart.
The more he thought, the more a fire burned in his heart.
He couldn't wait to see that incredibly beautiful figure.
"Qingxuan, wait for me!"
Chu Xiao's gaze looked out at the Universe beyond the Qingyang World, filled with deep affection and longing.
