Chapter 464: Gather in Shui Yan City (3)

The others: "..."

They really didn’t want to talk to him. Even Prince Fu Liang felt like beating Prince Lin Yan up this time.

However, Lin Xiao genuinely thought about it as he was busy absorbing a lot of Qi. After all, he knew that he was lacking in Qi in order to advanced his rank.

He should also prepare his heart.

Hmm...

There were not many days left and Lin Xiao was waiting near the cylinder building. After all, he hadn’t seen his wife at all. There was no way he wouldn’t be nervous.

It was nearing the last day when Princess Lan Yi Hua finally appeared. She looked quite different from before as she was exuding pressure from her body. At the same time, there was a faint fire marking on her forehead.

It was... Phoenix Markings?

Lin Xiao was staring with his mouth agape when he saw Princess Lan Yi Hua walked passed through the crowd. She was still as beautiful as ever... no scratch that, she was much more beautiful than when he last seen her.

"Xiao." Princess Lan Yi Hua smiled.

"Xiao Hua." Lin Xiao smiled back. "I’m glad that you’re save."

"Mhm."

After that, Lin Xiao stepped forward and hugged Princess Lan Yi Hua. He missed her greatly for the past three years. Well, it was not full 3 years but it didn’t really matter to him. Because Princess Lan Yi Hua was slightly shorter than him, her head landed on his chest.

Princess Lan Yi Hua smiled and snuggled lightly. "Miss me."

"How can I not miss my beautiful wife?" Lin Xiao smirked.

"Glib tongue." Princess Lan Yi Hua stuck out her tongue. She pointed to the cylinder building. "Wait for me here, I’ll get my token."

"Okay."

Lin Xiao nodded and continued to stand there. He was still feeling happy upon reuniting with Princess Lan Yi Hua again that he nearly failed to notice when Lin Hu called him.

"Damn it, Xiao! Can’t you hear my voice?" Lin Hu was frustrated. This annoying master of his was smitten by love.

"Oh, sorry, what is it?"

"Princess Lan Yi Hua is already Nascent Soul Stage 2."

... ... ...

Wait, what?

Lin Xiao was speechless. In his consciousness, he grabbed the large dragon. "What do you say? She’s already Nascent Soul Stage 3?"

"Let go!" Lin Hu struggled and glared at Lin Xiao. "Yes, she’s already at Nascent Soul Stage 2."

This time, Lin Xiao was speechless. In the past, the two of them were seen as a pair that equally useless and looked good to each other. Then after he showed that he could inherit the throne, there were some people who didn’t think that Princess Lan Yi Hua was good to him. It was only after she had obtained the Phoenix Inheritance that people started to say that they were a match made in Heaven.

Now that Princess Lan Yi Hua surpassed him in his cultivation... would it be his turn to be looked down on?

Lin Xiao wanted to cry at the thought.

Before long, Princess Lan Yi Hua walked out of the Cylinder building. Her hand was holding onto a gold token.

"Did you encounter good thing?"

"Mhm." Princess Lan Yi Hua nodded and rubbed her forehead slightly. "It’s a bit annoying but I can’t really hide it."

If only she was like Lin Xiao, she might think of using headband to cover it. However, Princess Lan Yi Hua knew that she didn’t really like to wear one. It wouldn’t take long before she would be unwilling to use the headband and then got found out.

In any case, she was not the only one with this mark.

"We can speak later." Lin Xiao laughed lightly.

"Okay." Princess Lan Yi Hua smiled and grabbed Lin Xiao’s hand, feeling his warmth. In any case, she didn’t want to leave him. The past three years hadn’t been easy but thanks to the Phoenix Inheritance, she managed to grow stronger faster.

She would grow even stronger.

But before they could even walk far away, there was a cultivator who blocked their way. His friends surrounded them with their eyes locked onto Princess Lan Yi Hua. It was clear that their target was her.

A cultivator who held golden token and was extremely beautiful... who wouldn’t be tempted.

"What a beautiful lady." The cultivator who blocked the way smirked. He glanced at Lin Xiao but didn’t see anything remarkable about him. After all, Lin Xiao never paid much attention to his dressing.

He didn’t look that bad but certainly couldn’t be compared to many rich young master.

"Miss, why don’t you team up with us rather than him? He’ll just drag you down."

Lin Xiao’s face turned dark. He just thought about it before but why did it seemed that the words came true? He really wanted to fight against this annoying young master here.

"No need." Princess Lan Yi Hua was cold. When it was facing anyone other than Lin Xiao, she would never spare them another glance much less a smile. "Let’s go, Hubby."

Lin Xiao smiled and took Princess Lan Yi Hua’s hand before they walked away. There was a rule that stated they couldn’t fight in this city. Since it was the case, why should he be worried that those people would find trouble with him?

The cultivator was stunned. He turned to look at his follower. "What did she call him?"

"I think.. husband?" his friend was also stunned.

Cultivators all could live for a long time, so finding a husband at such young age become extremely uncommon. It made many people couldn’t put their fingers on why did they suddenly heard the woman called the unremarkable man as her husband.

"She has bad taste."

"Yes. He’s such a weakling but she chose to stay with him."

The cultivator snorted, clearly no longer feeling willing to recruit that woman. He turned around and left. The others hurriedly followed him as they feared that they would be left behind.
