It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

But after all, she was also the queen of a country, and she had an arrogance in her bones. Even if they were alone, she couldn't change her mind just like that.

Not to mention having to wear a collar... She felt ashamed to the point of exploding just thinking about it.

and so.

"Mr. Xu... no matter what, I... I am also the empress of the empire..."

After a long pause, she decided to fight for it. She blushed and stammered, "If I really wear something like this, it will also arouse other people's suspicion... Don't you think so?"

A white dress with a black collar, anyone who is not blind would probably notice it in a second.

"Oh, so you're going to go back on your word?"

Xu Shi's face suddenly turned cold. He sat in his seat, crossed his legs, stared at her and said, "If it was five minutes ago, you might still have the right to refuse, but now... you don't."

"Or do you want me to whip you before you do it?"

The voice was not loud. Xu Shi had never had a loud voice, but anyone could clearly hear the sudden coldness in his tone, and the unquestionable nature that only a superior could have.

"I, I didn't..."

Dongfang Xiao explained hurriedly. She didn't know why she was really afraid that Xu Shi would take out a whip and hit her the next second. She unconsciously took a few steps back and bumped into the desk.

"If not, then why disobey the master's order?"

Xu Shi had no intention of showing any sympathy to the girl. He raised his eyebrows and pressed on, "Do you know what will happen to a bad boy who doesn't listen?"

"I……"

Dongfang Xiao didn't know, but she guessed what it would be.

Xu Shi's hawk-like gaze made her more and more afraid unconsciously. Her throat rolled again and again. Finally, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and stammered, "...Master, Master..."

As she spoke, she picked up the collar on the table, unfastened the buckle reluctantly, and prepared to put it on with a feeling of humiliation.

"... Never mind. Since this is your first time, let's just leave it at that."

At this moment, Xu Shi once again held her hand just right, "I thought about it and it is true that this will easily expose your true identity... You don't have to wear the collar or anything like that for now, and you don't have to call me master in front of outsiders."

"……Oh."

The little queen couldn't remember how many times she felt relieved, but it was undeniable that Xu Shi's understanding made her feel a little more grateful.

If he really appeared in front of everyone wearing a collar and called Xu Shi "master" all the time, she didn't dare to imagine the scene.

"Then...what should I call you from now on?"

She even asked the question on her own initiative, as if she was seeking peace of mind.

Hearing her ask this, Xu Shi's brows gradually relaxed and he once again revealed his usual satisfied smile.

The so-called training is actually such a gradual process of boiling a frog in warm water. It is not a good thing to compress the spring too tight. The ultimate goal is to lower the bottom line of her tolerance little by little. As long as this goal is achieved, it is enough.

Just like what he did before, long before all this started, he had already replaced the previous address of "Your Majesty" with "Miss Dongfang". The only time he called her that was just a joke. Respect? Not at all.

In this way, when she is asked to call her master again, the little slave girl, oh no, the little queen's resistance will be reduced a lot.

The best proof of this was that she changed "I" to "I" just now. That should be the limit of what she could endure in a short period of time. Then with a little more pressure, no matter how reluctant she looked, at least she had passed this level in her heart.

She even takes the initiative to consider the issue of address now. She has learned to share the worries of her owner. That's great.

Look, she is so embarrassed that she has to thank us.jpg

Unknowingly, he also taught Dongfang Xiao her first lesson as a slave - although she seemed to be giving in, her requests and his orders were two completely different concepts.

Everything a slave has can only be given by the master, and you cannot ask for it on your own initiative.

As for what the official name will be in the future, this is indeed a question of neither small nor large.

After careful inspection, Xu Shi finally decided on the title of "Imperial Teacher" - as the person who brought new technologies to the Hualan Empire, he indeed met this condition, and it also sounded much more friendly than stiff titles such as "envoy" and "sir".

Afterwards, Dongfang Xiao would also read out the relevant imperial decree, and from then on, he would be able to enter and leave the palace with justification.

The best part is that this title is not possessed by Cheng Gujian - before this, the little empress's nominal masters were only those female officials who taught knowledge or court etiquette. They did not conflict with him openly, and could also dispel his inner doubts to a certain extent.

"But even so, if you come too often, he will definitely get suspicious..."

The problem was solved, but Dongfang Xiao was still a little worried, "If he finds out, will he..."

Before the real showdown, she certainly didn't want Cheng Gujian to notice anything unusual, otherwise all her efforts would be wasted.

"Well...you can rest assured."

Xu Shi waved his hand indifferently, "First of all, you have to treat my wife's illness. Before she recovers, it would be normal for us to come every day."

"Second..."

As he spoke, he gently clasped Dongfang Xiao's wrist, and a red light flashed in his eyes like electric waves.

The next second, the little queen was surprised to find that the surrounding furnishings had completely changed - it felt a bit like a dungeon. Although the decoration was still luxurious, it was a bit dim at first glance, with only the flickering candlelight on the wall.

Then, she felt a tightness in her chest, as if she was suddenly teleported to another place, and even felt a little nauseous and wanted to vomit.

"This is?"

She asked in a murmur.

"Welcome to Myanmar... Welcome to my world, my dear little queen."

Xu Shi smiled and said, "No one will disturb you here, and it will be your paradise in the future."

"Liminal Space", activated!

"Well……"

Through his concise narration, Dongfang Xiao gradually understood everything.

While she was surprised at the other party's strange ability, she also saw that the collar appeared out of thin air on her neck - in the space dominated by Xu Shi, it was not difficult to do this.

Including the dress she was wearing...at first glance, it seemed no different, but upon closer inspection, it became much more restrained.

To put it simply, the places that should be covered are completely exposed, while the places that should not be covered are still tightly covered.

The bird has taken off its underwear.

"ah!"

The little queen screamed, and the dizziness that had not yet faded caused her to stumble and fall to the ground.

How could she accept such a sudden change? She had never worn such clothes since she was a child!

"Now you don't have to worry about anything, right?"

Xu Shi's face turned stern again, his cold eyes flickering with the candlelight, "You can't find any excuses here."

"so……"

"So, kneel down."

Xu Shi snapped his fingers, and a soft whip appeared in his hand.

Dongfang Xiao blinked dumbly.

After a moment, she sighed resignedly, knelt in front of Xu Shi, and lowered her proud head.

"host……"

Oh my god, this cold won't get better. The problem is that the fever comes in new forms every day. The day before yesterday I felt dizzy, yesterday my throat was dry and sore, and today my nose is running non-stop. What's going on... Could it be that I'm having erectile dysfunction again...

By the way, the monthly ticket for Qiuqiu is still a bit far from one thousand, but I hope everyone can work hard.

Chapter 261 I have to give my family an explanation

2023-09-11

There is an old saying that goes, "A day in the cave is a thousand years in the world."

This sentence is still applicable in the current situation, because Xu Shi, who has finished the initial training of the little queen, discovered that the flow of time in the "threshold space" seems to be different from that in the outside world, and is much slower overall.

Considering that it was his first time and that it took some time beforehand, he was deliberately restrained in his first lesson with Dongfang Xiao, and it only lasted an hour in total.

As a result, after the ability was removed and he returned to reality, only a quarter of an hour had passed on the clock on the wall. This shows that the ratio is one to four.

Is this really the case? He vaguely remembered that the last time he communicated with Miss Black Rabbit, it was not like this. It was a one-to-one exchange.

However, the use of "Limited Space" that time was not complete. At best, it was connected to the channel, not fully closed as it is now... I guess this is the difference?

Oh, that’s quite interesting.

Doesn't this mean that more time can be squeezed out in the future... This is the first thought that comes to some people's minds. After all, there will be other things to do when visiting Dongfang Xiao in the future. The complications of the fiancée also need to be treated, right?

This is simply wonderful... As for the other things, he will not consider them for the time being. He does not have the enthusiasm of the traditional fantasy fairy tales, where the protagonist discovers a treasure that compresses time and then starts to practice hard.

That's not our style. Sorry, I can't do that.

"Hey, how's it going?"

Xu Shi smiled, then looked at Dongfang Xiao, who was gasping for breath after his ability was also lifted and he returned to reality.

"Xiao... I'm still a little dizzy..."

The little queen was still a little dazed. After a while, she replied weakly, "Hmm..."

She seemed unable to separate the two different worlds clearly, and her mind was a mess. It took her a while to realize that the shameful clothes had returned to normal and the filth on her body was no longer there.

She then came out of her semi-paralyzed state and sat up straight, and her breathing gradually returned to normal.

But the blush on her face still took a while to fade away. After all, although her body had not undergone any substantial training, the memory was deeply engraved in her mind.

It was so embarrassing... After all, an hour ago she was still an innocent little girl who had never even held a man's hand, so even though Xu Shi felt that she had restrained herself, those methods were still a bit beyond her scope.

I didn't expect you to be such a Xu Shi... She couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart, this guy is really bad.

As for the dizzy feeling, it has always existed, and it seems to have little to do with how Xu Shi treats her.

Xu Shi was naturally well aware of this. It seemed that this was the mental impact of the "Threshold Space" on those who were affected. It was just as he expected, not too bad but definitely existed.

But if it is only this level, it seems to be within an acceptable range... Maybe we can really let her come in and practice as Xia Wuyou said before?

Of course, this may be related to the fact that Dongfang Xiao himself possesses the ability of holy light, so he has a higher resistance in this regard. We need to observe the details further.

"Then take a good rest."

He didn't care too much about what the little queen was thinking. He just patted her head and said, "That's all for today. We'll continue next time."
