From Princess in the Cold Palace to Empress in Heaven

"How could I? Am I wrong? Isn't Your Highness my Taoist partner?"

Ye Ruoshui's pretty face flushed all the way to her ears, but she still pretended to be calm and argued.

"you...."

Xiao Minghuang was immediately choked by her, and smiled helplessly: "Yes, yes, you are right!"

Then, she said to Su Miaomiao in a gentle voice: "Miaomiao, don't be afraid. Even if you look at me a few more times, your sister Ruoshui will not eat you. Be good and raise your head."

At this point, Ye Ruoshui also agreed: "I was just teasing you before, don't take it too seriously."

Hearing this, Su Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, but finally mustered up the courage and raised her head.

When she looked up and saw Xiao Minghuang's face clearly, she was stunned.

Xiao Minghuang is really beautiful.

Not only was he extremely beautiful, but he also exuded an air of nobility that made her feel ashamed and afraid to look him in the face.

Seeing Su Miaomiao's dazed expression, Xiao Minghuang chuckled and said, "Why, are you stupid?"

"No...no, the princess is too beautiful...I am not worthy..."

Halfway through her words, she quickly explained: "No, I mean, the princess is very beautiful, I am far inferior to her..."

"Yeah, I know what you mean."

Xiao Minghuang reached out, gently touched her head, and interrupted her.

"Oh."

Su Miaomiao responded obediently, feeling the soft touch on her head, and ripples of emotion welled up in her heart.

Before leaving the Su family, the ancestor had a conversation with her.

"Princess Xiao is extremely talented and will definitely become an immortal in the future. She likes beautiful women. If you have the chance, you must not let it go. This is a great opportunity!"

The old man's words were still ringing in her ears, and she could not forget them.

However, there was someone standing next to her, watching her closely and making her dare not act rashly.

"All right."

Ye Ruoshui stepped forward, separated the two, stood in front of Xiao Minghuang, and said righteously:

"Your Highness, Miaomiao has just recovered and her cultivation has not yet been on the right track. How about letting me guide her?"

As she spoke, her aura suddenly changed, and the laws of saintliness condensed out. The air around her seemed to be burning hot, as if it could shine with the immortal sun in the distant starry sky. Her whole body was emitting golden flames, giving off an extremely positive and hot artistic conception.

400. System update, causal compensation

Xiao Minghuang was very familiar with this aura; it was the power of the origin of the sun.

"Your Highness, I have already entered the second level of the Holy Realm. It should be easy to teach Miaomiao how to draw Qi into the body!"

Ye Ruoshui said with a smile.

"no!"

Xiao Minghuang flatly refused.

"why?"

Ye Ruoshui was very puzzled.

"You have just achieved a breakthrough, so you should consolidate your realm first and don't be distracted."

Xiao Minghuang spoke righteously.

Seeing how serious she was, Ye Ruoshui had to give up the idea. After all, Xiao Minghuang was right. She had just made a breakthrough and needed time to consolidate her realm.

However, she was still worried about Su Miaomiao.

After all, she knew her prince's temperament too well. If she allowed the little girl Su Miaomiao to stay with her prince, it would not be long before she could drive her away.

Then, Ye Ruoshui turned his gaze and set his sights on Xu Xiuer who was standing beside him.

"Your Highness, otherwise, let Xiu'er teach Miaomiao first."

Hearing this, before Xu Xiuer could answer, Xiao Minghuang refused on her behalf.

"No, Xiu'er's eyes haven't been cured yet, so she can't teach Miaomiao."

As for Luo Qianhua, it is even more inappropriate.

At this point, Ye Ruoshui was no longer able to find a suitable mentor for Su Miaomiao, and could only let Xiao Minghuang take the role temporarily.

However, she was still somewhat worried and leaned close to Xiao Minghuang's ear, whispering: "Your Highness, Miaomiao is still a little girl, you must not..."

"What don't you want?"

Xiao Minghuang asked doubtfully.

Seeing that she was playing dumb, Ye Ruoshui didn't dare to explain in detail in front of everyone.

"Miaomiao, before you return to the Holy Academy, you should practice with His Highness first."

Ye Ruoshui said to Su Miaomiao.

"Yeah, okay."

After hearing this arrangement, Su Miaomiao's face immediately showed joy.

Then, she bowed to Xiao Minghuang and thanked him, "Princess, please give me more guidance in the future!"

Xiao Minghuang reached out and helped her up, saying softly, "Miaomiao, don't be so reserved. Just treat me as your sister."

Su Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "Then...Princess sister!"

"Ah."

Xiao Minghuang responded with a smile.

Seeing that they were acting like harmonious sisters, Ye Ruoshui curled her lips and stepped back to Xu Xiuer's side.

"Xiu'er, during the time I was away, did anything special happen? Or did anyone special appear?"

Xu Xiuer frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and shook her head.

"no."

Luo Qianhua had known them before, so she shouldn't be considered a special person.

"I'm going to be in seclusion for a while. During this time, you help me hold back Su Miaomiao. I always feel that this little girl has bad intentions towards His Highness."

Ye Ruoshui looked at Su Miaomiao and said in a low voice.

"That's no problem." Xu Xiuer responded, and then asked, "But didn't you bring her here?"

Ye Ruoshui explained: "Before leaving, Su Zu entrusted her to me and asked me to help take her to the Holy Academy. I didn't think too much at the time and agreed directly."

After all, the treasure that enabled her to attain sainthood, the Great Sun Shining Pearl, was given to her by Su Zu. How could she not respond to such a small matter?

However, it now seems that bringing Su Miaomiao here is undoubtedly inviting a wolf into the house.

Ye Ruoshui glanced around the deck but did not see Luo Qianhua.

"Strange, doesn't Lord Luo always like to pester Your Highness? Why didn't I see her?"

"She was injured in the ancient tomb and is recovering."

Xu Xiuer explained briefly.

"Injured?" Ye Ruoshui was startled and asked, "Is the injury serious?"

"It's not a big deal."

"That's good."

Although she hated Luo Qianhua for always hanging around in front of His Highness, she didn't hate her to the core.

After some greetings.

Xiao Minghuang led Ye Ruoshui and Su Miaomiao to settle down.

After everyone had rested, Xiao Minghuang returned to his room.

She planned to recall the key points that a cultivator should pay attention to when getting started, then find a few introductory exercises, and then find an opportunity to teach Su Miaomiao how to draw qi into the body.

However, just as she calmed down, a cold electronic voice suddenly rang in her mind.

【Ding! 】

Hearing this long-lost voice, Xiao Minghuang was immediately cheered up.

[Dear host, after a long period of maintenance, the system functions have been iterated, please receive and review! ]

Next, a large piece of information emerged in her mind.

After checking, Xiao Minghuang roughly understood.

The system has been updated and maintained to fix a bug where gifts could be given away and then taken back.

Now, once she takes back the things she gave away, the system's compensation will be cancelled.

But correspondingly, the gifting mechanism has also changed.

There are two situations.

First, as before, once the opportunity she personally gave away was taken back, the compensation would be cancelled. This was called direct gift compensation return.

But perhaps to compensate for this shortcoming, a second return mechanism has emerged, called causal compensation return.

That is, if her contractor gets a certain opportunity because of her, she can also get certain rewards.

The reward is related to the opportunity itself, as well as the role it plays in helping the contractor gain the opportunity.

For example, she gave the Great Sun Pearl to Ye Ruoshui and received full compensation.

But after the system was updated, it no longer needed to go through her hands. She could directly express that she would give this treasure to Ye Ruoshui. It no longer needed to be given by her personally. It would only be sufficient if there was a causal relationship.

But if Ye Ruoshui obtained the opportunity alone, she would not be compensated.

"From this point of view, it is just another channel to get compensation, and it does not affect me that much."

Xiao Minghuang thought to himself.

In addition, causal relationship only applies to the contractors and not to other non-contractors.

"After I was promoted to the God Transformation Realm, I unlocked a new contractor quota and contracted Xu Xiuer. After I was promoted to the King Realm, I got another contractor quota and an opportunity for a void gift..."

She had already decided on the candidate, which would be Luo Qianhua.

However, Luo Qianhua and Luo Qianrui now share the same body. I don’t know if there will be any problems if they are bound now.

"System, if the person I'm contracting is a person with two souls in one body, does that count as a contract with one person or two people?"

When she asked this question, the system seemed to have never considered this question before. It was silent for a long time before giving an answer.

[Ding! In view of the special question raised by the host, if the person the host contracts with is a dual soul, then the dual souls can be contracted at the same time, but this effect can only take effect once. ]

Hearing this, her eyes lit up slightly.

"If that's the case, it saves a spot."

After she was promoted to the Saint Realm, the system gave her new rewards.

Perhaps because of the improvement of realm, two contractors were given at one time, as well as two opportunities for void gifts.

401. Time and Space Integration

"Promoting to the King Realm gives me a contractor quota and a chance to receive a Void Gift. I have already used up the Void Gift opportunity."

"I was given two places and two chances to be promoted to the Saint Realm, but I haven't used them yet."

"All in all, I still have three spots left, as well as two opportunities for void gifts."

Xiao Minghuang thought in his mind.

According to her plan, one of the places must be given to the Luo sisters.

She hasn't decided yet for the remaining two places.

"Forget it, let's keep it for now and talk about it later."
