Chapter 136 The Queen's Excuse Was Too Lame
During dinner, Xun'er told me that she had contacted her clan seven days ago to send someone to pick her up, and that she would be returning to her clan today to cultivate in seclusion.

[This is different from my previous life. In my previous life, she wanted to stay with me longer, and she wouldn't even voluntarily return to the ancient clan. She even refused after receiving the clan's notice to return.]

[I was completely unaware of this. After passing the Canaan Academy entrance exam, I chose to take leave and then stayed in the Gama Empire to accompany Xiao Yanzi on his training.]

Only after fulfilling my three-year promise did I go to Canaan Academy to reunite with Xun'er and confirm my feelings.

[But their reunion was short-lived; at the request of the clan elders, she was forcibly taken away by the Black Annihilation Army.]

[We met again five years later when I went to Zhongzhou. She came to the rescue when Little Fairy Doctor and Ice Venerable of Ice River Valley were at odds.]

[In this life, she wants to return to the ancient clan ahead of schedule, which is unexpected, but upon reflection, it makes sense. I am now a seven-star Dou Ling, possessing several methods to suppress sixth-tier magical beasts, and I can even escape unscathed from a Dou Zong. She must feel pressured.]

[With Cai Lin as a comparison, she must be dissatisfied with her current strength and feel that she's no longer qualified to stand by my side, which is why she wants to return to the ancient clan.]

"Brother Chu Xiao, you really understand me." A barely perceptible smile flashed in Xun'er's eyes.

I don't care about that. I like her only because she's Xun'er, not the powerful young lady from an ancient clan who could make me a kept woman.

"I understand, but I want to be able to help you more." Xun'er's smile deepened.

Medusa's eyes flickered, and she felt a strange pang of jealousy.

In my past life, I had no choice and couldn't hold her back, but in this life, with her by my side, even someone as useless as Sister Yafei has plenty of ways to quickly become stronger.

Ya Fei, who was diligently working on the business plan for Lingxiao Pavilion: "."

You look down on me so much, believe me or not I'll quit?
Returning to the ancient clan would only slow down my growth compared to staying by my side; there's really no need to go back.

"Yes, so why did you agree in the end?" many women wondered.

Xun'er wants to return to the ancient clan for normal development, but it's not quite normal for you, Chu Xiao, to let her go back.

But then I thought, we can help Xun'er become stronger together with the ancient clan; there's no need to distinguish between "yours" and "mine."

I have already left a mark on her. With a little effort, even if she is in the ancient clan, I can still contact her, and even see her.

Her return to her clan is a good thing for me, for her, and for the entire clan. There's no need to stop her; on the contrary, we should do our best to help her.

"I see!" The women suddenly realized.

As expected of the Heavenly Emperor's rebirth, he actually possesses the means to see Xun'er whenever she returns to the ancient clan.

Indeed, we should let go for a while. As the daughter of the ancient clan patriarch, Xun'er will surely receive the highest level of training from the Dou Di family upon returning to the clan.

Why wouldn't you want these free resources?!

[But I didn't tell Xun'er about this; I planned to surprise her after she returned to the ancient clan.]

"I already received this surprise, Brother Chu Xiao." Xun'er restrained herself from laughing.

She also understood that staying by Chu Xiao's side would allow her to grow faster than returning to the ancient clan, as the ancient clan could not compare to a reborn Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign.

But she felt that the resources Chu Xiao had given her could be used by Cai Lin, Xiao Yi Xian, and others.

She herself went back and used the resources prepared for her by the ancient clan to quickly become stronger, and then helped Chu Xiao.

Otherwise, wouldn't the ancient clan have won without contributing anything, simply because she followed the Heavenly Emperor?

The only thing that made her reluctant to leave was Chu Xiao.

Now, this problem has been solved.

[Cai Lin is probably worried I won't be able to handle the people who came to take Xun'er back, so she's going out to back me up.]

[The excuse they came up with was really lame. They actually said they needed to go outside for some fresh air. My little world is much larger than the Gama Empire, and the energy of heaven and earth here is much denser than in the Central Plains. Does anyone really go from a large, good place to a small, bad place for fresh air?]

[You might as well say you haven't been in contact with the clan for too long and are worried about its development and security; that would be a perfectly legitimate reason.]

Girls: "."

Looking at it this way, the reasoning does seem rather weak.

Xun'er secretly gave Medusa a teasing look.

Medusa: "."

I, the king, should not care about anything.

“You must have your own reasons for leaving. I don’t want to selfishly stop you. I respect your decision.” “If you can’t stay in the clan or miss me, you can go back to the Xiao family or go to Canaan Academy to find me. If I go to Zhongzhou in the future, I will also come to find you.”

"This is the gift I promised to give you."

Chu Xiao took out three sets of clothes that he had made himself from his storage ring.

A purple outfit, after all, the younger sister looks very charming in purple, mainly using the amethyst source and scales that are companions of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

The black and pink-gold sets are also related to the materials used.

"Thank you, Brother Chu Xiao." Xun'er happily accepted the dress.

She got three sets at once, two more than Medusa.

Medusa: !

"When Xun'er is strong enough, she will come back to find you." Xun'er said with a firm look in her eyes and a serious tone, "Brother Chu Xiao, please don't forget Xun'er."

"I may forget anyone, but I could never forget you." Chu Xiao gently touched Xun'er's brow and infused it with a wisp of Thunderous Emperor Flame.

Medusa suppressed her disgust: "."

Two drama queens, pfft!

"This is a gift from me. I look forward to our reunion." Medusa took out a crystal and handed it to Xun'er.

This is a magic crystal she obtained through a Yellow Rank lottery. Inlaying it into a weapon not only makes it look beautiful, but also increases the speed of battle qi condensation.

"Sister Xun'er, this is my gift." Qinglin took out a box containing snacks she had made herself.

"Thank you!" Xun'er accepted the gifts.

She didn't reciprocate, because she had already given away what she wanted for Chu Xiao, Medusa, and Qing Lin.

"Let's go then."

Chu Xiao waved his hand, leading the three women away from the small world and into the valley outside.

"Ok?"

As soon as he appeared, Chu Xiao turned his head to look in a certain direction, his eyes gradually turning cold.

Xiao Yan was surrounded by a group of magical beasts. These beasts were all black, with a sharp, two-inch-long silver horn on their heads, covered with strange patterns. Their breathing produced sounds of wind and thunder, and they had extremely wide wings on their backs.

These are all extremely rare flying magical beasts, with their strength at least comparable to the fourth rank of Dou Ling, and the leader being comparable to the fifth rank of Dou Wang.

These are organized magical beasts, and due to the difficulty of raising them, they are a true symbol of top-tier forces.

On these flying magical beasts stood people, all dressed in black and purple robes, with sharp eyes like blades, and their whole bodies exuding a chilling aura.

But they had no secrets from Chu Xiao. Most of them were at the level of Dou Wang, ranging from seven to nine stars, while the leader was a seven-star Dou Huang. He looked to be in his early twenties and was extremely handsome, only slightly less so than Chu Xiao. His black robe gave him a sense of composure.

However, the mocking look in his eyes at that moment made him seem like he was all show and no substance.

"I have heard of you, Xiao Yan." The man slowly spoke: "A descendant of the Xiao family who was expected to reach the Dou Huang level, but unfortunately he became a waste. My clan's Miss Xun'er even sent a message back to the clan because of Chu Xiao, hoping to send someone to investigate you. How ridiculous."

"So you're from the Ancient Clan!" Xiao Yan's expression turned extremely ugly.

He was training hard when suddenly a flying magical beast appeared, scaring him so much that he tried every means to escape.

I never expected it to be a prank by someone from Xun'er's clan.

"You actually know about the ancient clans? It must have been Miss who told you." The leading man sneered, "Otherwise, someone from your fallen Xiao family wouldn't be qualified to know about them."

Xiao Yan clenched his fists, his chest heaving with anger, but he knew that he was not qualified to speak with his current strength, nor did he expect Yao Lao to help him.

At that moment, a seed was planted in his heart that he had to become stronger.

One day, no one will be able to look down on him and the Xiao family like that.

Suddenly, a mocking voice rang out from the side.

Whether the Xiao family is qualified to know about ancient clans is another matter.

"But if someone like you is sent to pick up Xun'er, I think it's better for the ancient clan not to return."
