Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

Kafka temporarily suppressed the shocking matter of Xuan Ge nearly bringing calamity to the universe, raised her gaze to look at Ai Li Ou, her tone calm yet carrying a hint of stubbornness:

"Then you tell me, why did you hide it from me? I don't think directly informing me of the truth would have any negative impact."

She is not an unreasonable person; if it was to restrain Xuan Ge, to avoid a dead end, the arrangement to let him go out and clear his mind, she would absolutely not obstruct it; she simply could not tolerate being deliberately kept in the dark.

Ai Li Ou crouched on the table edge, a crafty and punchable expression on his little cat face, staring straight at Kafka, enunciating each word as he retorted:

"I won't say more about other things; Xuan Ge touched a married woman, brought her back, not considering Luo Rui Ya's current relationship as Xuan Ge's sister, can you accept it calmly?"

Kafka subconsciously glanced at the figure faintly visible behind Ren, the words reaching her lips but swallowed back down.

After a moment of silence, she nodded calmly, her tone carrying a hint of imperceptible bitterness: "Cannot accept."

She can tolerate Xuan Ge's helplessness, but cannot calmly face there being another person by his side.

Although Xuan Ge has his own plans regarding those Order Twins, but... there is still a trace of strangeness...

"What about you?" Ai Li Ou turned his head again to look at Liu Ying nearby, pressing the question.

Liu Ying's fingertips clutched her clothes hem, her cheeks slightly flushed, her gaze evasive as she also glanced toward behind Ren, murmuring softly:

"I..... um..... I don't know..... as long as the General is happy, it's fine."

Her heart similarly surged with sour bitterness, truly unable to calmly accept Luo Rui Ya's existence.

But now, Luo Rui Ya has become the younger sister acknowledged by Xuan Ge, this point she can accept.

Seeing this, Ai Li Ou's tail perked up high, assuming a tsundere posture, tilting his cat head toward Ren:

"Little Ren, we're returning to the palace."

But after waiting half a day, Ren behind him still had not the slightest movement to step forward and pick him up, the air instantly falling quiet.

Ai Li Ou's heart tightened, he slowly turned his cat head, looking toward behind Ren——

Xuan Ge was standing with arms crossed, leaning against the corridor, watching him with a half-smile, a dangerous playfulness in his eyes.

Ai Li Ou's fur instantly stood on end all over, cold sweat instantly soaking through the surface layer of fluff, even his tail stiffening straight.

"Ai Li Ou, your scheming, you really play a fine abacus."

Xuan Ge walked forward unhurriedly, the corner of his mouth hooking a wicked grin, the mockery in his tone making Ai Li Ou's scalp tingle.

When he came out of You Qiu Yu, he had already recalled the equation of the Lacertis Nebula that Fei Cui entrusted.

Result: just arrived at Chi Ming Zu Di boundary, he ran into the outside script Ren handed over, how could he not see the doorway in it.

Xuan Ge reached out and pinched Ai Li Ou's nape, lifting him in mid-air, speaking blandly:

"Your intent, I fear is not limited to this, right?"

"I'm not stupid; if it really came to a dead end, would I not seek out Xing Xiao to join forces? Would I not ask Jing Yuan for help?"

Hearing this, Kafka abruptly raised her gaze, a flash of sharp danger in her eyes looking at Ai Li Ou.

Only then did he react, realizing he had actually been bluffed by this Ai Li Ou's one-sided words.

Xuan Ge's fate was originally unpredictable; Ai Li Ou only threw out the worst outcome, yet deliberately ignored Xuan Ge's possibility of breaking the deadlock.

Pinched until he could not move a muscle, Ai Li Ou's whole cat body sweating profusely, voice soft and ingratiating:

"Can..... can we reconcile? General Leader, let's talk nicely~"

Seeing the amusement in Xuan Ge's eyes grow even more intense, Ai Li Ou immediately activated flattery mode, cat voice sweet and cloying:

"Star is merely the protagonist of the Xing Qiu Tie Dao, but you're different, ah; you are the protagonist of this era, the core of the universe, Leader~"

For the maid, for beauty Ai Li Ou directly chose to throw away face, he sat like a beckoning cat waving his paws:

"Leader~ spare me, meow~"

"Cut the fake stuff."

Xuan Ge laughed lightly, fingertips loosening, placing him back on Ren's shoulder, tone carrying a hint of helplessness.

"I'm at most an Envoy, how qualified to be some era protagonist, you're trying to praise me to death?"

Although his mouth complained, being praised so highly, he still felt pleased in his heart.

Ai Li Ou hurriedly straightened his expression to remind: "Leader, Xi Pei's karmic debt, you must not forget to repay."

When Xuan Ge and Xing Xiao were intimate, they certainly used karma, so it had Ren wait for Xuan Ge's return at Dan Heng's place in advance.

It could only arrange for Xuan Ge a script to contact the Order Twins; only by borrowing the influence of these Twins could it offset the karma brought by Synchronization.

Otherwise owing Xi Pei's debt, the Synchronization Envoy's identity would eventually become Xuan Ge's burden.

Xuan Ge turned his head to look at Kafka nearby, her expression slightly resentful, not the slightest defense, directly lowering his head to admit fault:

"It's my fault, shouldn't have let you follow along in fear and worry."

He knew clearly in his heart, Xing Xiao's Synchronization Power had been subtly influencing him all along.

Added to that, at the time his own power relied entirely on Xing Xiao helping him recover, his dependence on Xing Xiao was extremely strong.

This is also why Xing Xiao clung to him back then, wanting him to call her Mother.

Kafka watching his appearance of frankly admitting fault, the anger in her heart instantly dissipated.

She stood up, proactively stepped forward and embraced Xuan Ge's neck, tiptoed and lightly kissed his lips, purple-pink eyes holding tenderness, charmingly speaking:

"Go on, I don't blame Husband, I don't blame Husband for wanting Yao Guang to conceive."

Ai Li Ou really couldn't stand watching such an intimate scene, fur bristling as he urged: "Little Ren, hurry back to the palace, don't stay here being a third wheel!"

"Hmph." This time Ren did not hesitate, coldly snorted, turned and prepared to leave.

He conveniently pulled along the dazed Liu Ying, walking quickly toward outside the courtyard, really not wanting to stay here watching the two be affectionate, only feeling his whole body emitting a blinding light.

"Ren Shu, why are you pulling me along?" Liu Ying looked up bewilderedly, gazing at Ren in confusion.

"Leave them some space to be alone." Ren released his grip on Liu Ying's wrist, his tone flat, yet his steps did not halt.

"Alright....." Liu Ying nodded obediently.

A flash of determination flickered in her eyes; she would let it go this time, but next time she would surely muster the courage to fight for it properly.

In the courtyard, Xuan Ge's palm rested lightly on Kafka's waist, his fingertips pinching gently twice.

Provoking a slight itch in Kafka's body, she subconsciously wanted to press closer, even uncontrollably wanting to lift her leg and wrap it around his waist.

Xuan Ge stopped his teasing in time, explaining softly: "Sorry, keeping it from you was my fault; I just wanted Yao Guang to walk out of her guilt sooner."

"Mhm." Kafka lightly hammered his chest once, her cheeks flushed, nodding docilely.

Yao Guang's heart knot — ever since Xuan Ge nearly died back then, Yao Guang had been deeply mired in self-blame.

Even though that karma had nothing to do with her to begin with, she still could never let it go.

Later, upon learning Xuan Ge's survival rate was only one percent, Yao Guang even planned to pass the Yu Que General Position to Luo Fu's Xiao Bu Zhe Qing Que, insisting on staying in Shen Wu to guard the comatose Xuan Ge.

"The General must rein it in this time, don't recklessly use power; Yao Guang is the Xun Lie Heavenly General, after all~"

Kafka raised her eyes, gazing at Xuan Ge with tender affection, her words carrying a spoiled complaint as she instructed.

Xuan Ge smiled and nodded: "Rest assured about this, I know my limits."

After forging a brand new path of his own, the current he and Xun Lie are people on the same boat.

He is well, Xun Lie is well;

He goes mad, Xun Lie will also go astray uncontrollably.
