Chapter 1886

Your tone suggests you weren't originally willing to go?

Venerable Bai Xi sensed his change in emotion, finding it somewhat strange.

No, no.

Xu Jingming quickly waved his hands, grinning:

Being able to cultivate at the Guiyuan Holy Temple is my honor.

I just prefer practical combat training.

The Frost Crown Sovereign listened from the side.

Her icy-blue eyes glanced at him, a flash of realization passing through her gaze.

She clearly knew, this little man of hers.

Regarding slaughter, he seemed to have an unusually strong obsession......

In that case, take this Guiyuan Order.

Venerable Bai Xi nodded slightly and said:

The Guiyuan Holy Temple is located in the Guiyuan Star Region over there.

With this order, you may go to cultivate at any time.

I understand, thank you, Venerable Bai Xi and Star Sovereign!

Xu Jingming solemnly put away the token.

Hmm.

Venerable Bai Xi nodded slightly.

She then turned to the Frost Crown Sovereign, her red lips parting slightly:

Besides Xu Jingming's one.

This time there are still 19 Guiyuan Orders left—would you like to go as well?

With the contribution points you've accumulated over the years, you should be able to exchange for one.

Me?

After a moment's thought, the Frost Crown Sovereign shook her head:

I've already been to the Guiyuan Holy Temple once.

A second entry would greatly diminish the enhancement of insight into the fundamental laws.

Moreover......

She lifted her gaze toward the distant, faint illusion of the Primordial Source Realm:

Recently I have mastered the Water Realm.

The power of the Water Realm is still merging, and I have vaguely touched the threshold of the End Sovereign.

At this moment, closing off for secluded cultivation is more suitable than going far to the Guiyuan Holy Temple.

Oh?

Venerable Bai Xi's eyes lit up, the silver star chain on her bare feet emitting a clear, faint chime:

It seems you have indeed gained quite a bit during this period.

As her words ended, she shifted her tone, looking toward Xu Jingming beside her:

Alright, big guy, you may leave first.

I have some things to discuss privately with your teacher.

Big guy?

For some reason, the Frost Crown Sovereign always felt her aunt seemed to be hinting at something.

Yes, Venerable Bai Xi. Xu Jingming understood.

After performing a respectful salute, his figure turned into a streak of golden Lei Guang and vanished into the courtyard.

After Xu Jingming left, the faint pressure surrounding Venerable Bai Xi's body quietly eased.

She jade hand lightly waved, divine power flowing behind her, condensing into a wide chair with flowing moonlight.

She lazily reclined upon it, her robe sleeves slipping down.

Revealing a section of Bai Xi-like snow-white calf, she propped her cheek, smiling ambiguously as she looked at Frost Crown.

Back then I said you might have taken a liking to your own disciple, yet you refused to admit it.

Venerable Bai Xi blinked, her tone full of teasing:

So now?

Not only have you taken a liking, you've even eaten.

That scene on the rooftop earlier...... tsk tsk.

Little Aunt!

The Frost Crown Sovereign's exquisite face instantly flushed crimson, even her ears tinged with rosy hue, she urgently said:

It's not what you think!

It was in the Water Realm, at that time the situation was special, we......

Alright, alright, no need to tell me the full story.

Venerable Bai Xi lightly laughed, interrupting, casually waving her hand:

Love between men and women is naturally a matter of mutual willingness.

To find someone whose heart aligns with yours in a long life is a good thing.

Your mother passed early; I have taken her place in watching over you—finding your home brings me joy.

She paused, then shifted her tone again, carrying a hint of elder's concern:

"However, don't always be like just now...... playing too much.

Wait a while, when your realm stabilizes, you should also consider having children.

With your two bloodline talents, your descendants will certainly be extraordinary."

"Auntie, it's still early!"

The Frost Crown Sovereign listened, her face turning red.

But then I saw Xiyue Venerable suddenly lean in a little, curious:

"By the way, that way, is it really comfortable?"

The Frost Crown Sovereign blinked slightly, then immediately replied angrily:

"Auntie! What are you asking!"

"Hehehe......"

Xiyue Venerable laughed until her branches trembled.

Her plump figure beneath the moon-white long robe swayed with the laughter, and it took a while before she stopped laughing, then she said solemnly:

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore.

Speaking of serious matters, you really don't plan to go to the Return to Origin Holy Hall?

If your contribution is slightly insufficient, I can temporarily lend you some from my side, no need to worry."

The Frost Crown Sovereign took a deep breath, suppressed the shame in her heart, and her expression returned to cold as she said:

"No need, just let Jingming go.

He is precisely at the time when he needs to broaden his horizons and accelerate his accumulation.

For him, the Return to Origin Holy Hall offers greater opportunities.

And I, I need to focus my energy and break through the bottleneck of the End Sovereign in one go."

Although she did not want to part with Xu Jingming.

But she could clearly discern which was more important.

Only with greater strength could she better help Xu Jingming.

Otherwise, if she only indulged in warmth,

when crisis came, having no power to resist, that would be the most painful.

"Mm, as long as you understand."

Upon hearing this, Xiyue Venerable couldn't help but secretly relax her heart.

She understood this niece of hers extremely well.

Her nature had always been exceptionally cold and aloof.

Before this, no man had ever been able to make her sink into indulgence.

But now, Xu Jingming not only achieved that.

And he could also make Frost Crown......

For her, this was also no small shock.

She also worried that Frost Crown would thus become addicted.

But now it seems, everything is still fine.

"In that case, I won't disturb you further.

The Return to Origin Token has been handed over; subsequent matters, you decide yourselves."

Xiyue Venerable gave a slight nod.

Her figure slowly rose from the chair, moon-white radiance began to flow.

Immediately, she transformed into a dazzling moonbeam, disappearing into the courtyard.

Only a faint starlight fragrance and the distant clear chime of bells remained.

In the villa living room.

Xu Jingming was browsing the virtual universe network, checking detailed information about the Return to Origin Holy Hall.

The light-and-shadow screen floated in midair, displaying a bird's-eye view of the Holy Hall's star domain.

The blurry images of the three hall masters, and some records about source beasts.

Suddenly, the space beside him rippled with familiar cold waves.

An ice-blue graceful figure silently appeared, carrying a faint fragrance.

Xu Jingming naturally reached out his hand.

He embraced the Frost Crown Sovereign into his arms, letting her sit on his lap:

"Did Xiyue my lord leave?"

"Mm."

The Frost Crown Sovereign leaned against him, her ice-blue eyes scanning the light-and-shadow screen:

"Looking at the Return to Origin Holy Hall's information? Have you decided, are you going?"

"Pretty much decided."

Xu Jingming nodded and said:

"In the Primordial Source Realm, the Water Domain and Thunder Domain have already been occupied by us two.

Although there are still a few domains left, competition is likely to be fierce.

Moreover, they also do not match our cultivation limits, and there's no need to go there again."

The most critical issue is the point particles!

The remaining few domains may not necessarily have existences like the Thunder Beast or Ice Beast.

There is likely only one law creature.

In that case, spending a lot of time on this.

For Xu Jingming, some things are not worth the loss.

Moreover, the Return to Origin Holy Hall not only allows cultivation, but also has source beasts that can be slain.

Although I don't know what this source beast is, it is highly likely to yield essence points.

In that case, it might as well go take a look.

Anyway, the Return to Origin Order was obtained for free.

After a pause, Xu Jingming added:

"As for the final ownership of the Primordial Source Realm.

After all realms have masters in the follow-up, I will return to contend."

"Also good."

Frost Crown Sovereign nodded, then pondered and said:

"I will summon Night Li and the others; it's time to lay all cards on the table."

She originally wanted to chat with Night Li and Lin Qianxue and the two of them.

But now it seems, time is too tight.

In that case, she also had to directly lay all cards on the table.
