But Shengsheng was not fooled by the other person's shyness. This person is a habitual offender! The kind that never changes after repeated admonitions!

She sneered.

"I do not believe."

"Really, there are really only two."

Lu Jiao explained in a low voice.

"... Jiao Nu decided to follow Madam's advice and give up this bad habit in the future. This... this is the last time."

Seeing the other party gritting his teeth and making a firm decision.

Shengsheng understood that a sinful soul was about to move toward the light, so she didn't make things too difficult for her.

"Humph!"

"Remember this, don't do it again, you →!"

Lu Jiao nodded repeatedly.

But what I was thinking was how could someone in this world be so beautiful, even when she was angry, she looked so cute. Whether it was words of praise or curses when she was embarrassed and angry...

Whenever Lu Jiao heard what this person said, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Since he wasn't asking her for anything, Shengsheng couldn't think of what could have made this guy look so embarrassed. She didn't bother to think about it anymore and just asked directly.

"Actually, I... Actually, I am not like that to Madam! I am like Li..."

Lu Jiao seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage and wanted to say something important to Shengsheng. He even changed the address in the second half of the sentence, just like how Er Jiang usually addressed Shengsheng.

I was about to say it, but at this moment.

A clear and pleasant voice suddenly squeezed in.

"Eh--?"

"Isn't this my sister and Master Lu Jiao? What a coincidence, meeting you here."

——What a coincidence!

——Oh, no, it’s my sister.

Hearing this man's voice, Xia Li's face turned black.

"Your Highness Xin."

Shengsheng could choose not to respond to the other party's greeting, but Lu Jiao absolutely could not.

She could only interrupt the chanting, swallow back the words that were about to come out, greet the other party and salute respectfully...

The person who came was Si Xin.

"Chan'er, why are you here?"

"Just happened to be passing by."

The young girl Chan smiled and returned the greeting to Lu Jiao, then nodded modestly to her sister.

"...I was about to go back to Qianyang Palace, but there were too many people on the main street, so I took a detour via Changyang Street."

Qianyang Palace is where the princesses and princes live.

This palace is indeed next to Changyang Palace, and Huayang Palace is located on the left and right of Changyang Palace. Si Xin's words are correct. Qianyang Main Street connects to streets that extend in all directions, connecting to meeting places, many large restaurants, canal docks, Dragon Bridge and other places where pedestrians come and go in an endless stream.

It is always bustling no matter day or night.

People from all walks of life gathered around...

At the same time, the princesses and princes usually returned from Changyang Main Street when they went out of the palace for fun.

but!

Girl Chan had just had dinner with Sheng Sheng. She pretended to come from Changyang Street, which fooled Lu Jiao but not her... Well, it was obvious that the other party had no intention of fooling her.

"Then go back quickly."

Shengsheng was too lazy to pay attention to Si Xin, not knowing what strange thing she was going to do next.

"But there is no rush."

"Sister, have you forgotten that mother asked me and my sisters to have dinner in the palace today?"

Si Xin smiled gently, her knowledgeable and well-mannered temperament almost overflowing...

"It's almost time. Why don't you and I go together, sister?"

--hiss!

Hearing this, Shengsheng took a breath.

The other party's ability to lie with his eyes open was almost as good as his own. As everyone knows, they just came out after having a meal... As a result, the girl Chan went out of Huayang Palace and walked around for a long time, and came back from Changyang Main Street.

They twisted the facts and made it appear that she had just returned from shopping.

I happened to meet my sister, Xia Li, and she invited me to a banquet in the palace...

Moreover, you can't make sense of what she said at first glance, but she deliberately mentioned "time" to hint others not to keep Di Taihe waiting for too long.

——Hey! It’s almost time for dinner. Do you want to delay Queen Wa’s schedule because of your own trivial matters?

Can you afford to offend me?

That's probably the hint.

After saying that, Si Xin just stood there and refused to leave...

Chapter 26: Green mountains are hidden and waters are far away, forgetting the height of the mountains and the distance of the road

Si Xin stood aside and refused to move.

Although there was some distance between them and Lu and Xia, this distance was not considered a distance at all for Si Xin, who was at the fifth level of the Inquiry. Even if Lu Jiao spoke in a low voice, the other party would be able to hear it clearly unless he used telepathy.

Xia Li once said, if you like someone, say it out loud!

How can you use voice transmission to confess something like this?

Lu Jiao felt helpless, but she couldn't save face and continue talking until Si Xin left.

"Just keep talking. Chan'er won't spread rumors."

Shengsheng saw that Lu Jiao was hesitant to speak and thought that she was worried about the girl Chan.

Although the other party always plays tricks, she has absolute trust in her sister...

But after hearing this, Lu Jiao, who was already hesitant and shy, gave up immediately.

Moreover, she could hear Shengsheng's full trust in Si Xin, and she felt a little uncomfortable... Then she felt a little self-pitying, hating herself for being incompetent and not being able to gain such trust from the other party.

"It's nothing, not particularly important. Let's talk about it next time we come back."

Lu Jiao made up an excuse and maintained his manners.

"Then Yuanyuan will not disturb Madam and His Highness Xin from having a meal..."

"Farewell!"

With Si Xin around, she didn't call herself a dragon slave.

In fact, Lu Jiao never thought of herself as Sheng Sheng's slave. She was equal to him! However, she was willing to call herself Jiao's slave in front of him, which was equivalent to a joke in the boudoir.

But Si Xin was a complete outsider, so Lu Jiao naturally woke up.

After all, she is a Daluo immortal cultivator and has served as the Privy Councilor in charge of military power for many years. She has the necessary dignity and bearing. She is just exceptionally gentle in front of Sheng Sheng and even seems easy to bully.

If it was the princess Si Xin who was in front of him, Lu Jiao would naturally have to behave properly and not allow himself to be humble in the slightest.

"and many more!"

"Ok?"

Lu Jiao wanted to leave, but Xia Li stopped him.

"You don't have much to say, but I have something to tell you."

"Yuanyuan..."

She patted the other person's shoulder with a serious look on her face.

"This time the organization trusts your ability, you must perform well and strive to become a leader in our team. You have completed this mission well... From now on, when you go out, I allow you to mention my name."

Shengsheng raised her eyebrows proudly.

It was as if her reputation was very big. People who didn't know her would think that Xia Li was a great human being with spiritual power, and Lu Jiao was just a rookie.

"Okay!"

"You said it yourself..."

When Lu Jiao heard this, his eyes lit up.

The depression caused by the interruption of the show due to the appearance of the young girl Chan completely dissipated, and her mood became cheerful.

"Humph! My words are as good as gold and never lie."

Shengsheng was not joking, after all, Lu Yuanyuan was her trusted subordinate.

Even though she would be stabbed in the back sometimes, she had punished him severely. As a big sister, she had to protect her subordinates when it was time to do so!

Shengsheng does have some good character.

"If Yuanyuan completes the task this time, I will tell others that you are mine..."

Speaking of it.

A strange look flashed in Lu Jiao's eyes. She suddenly leaned close to Xia Li's ear and spoke the last key words through telepathy.

"Madam~."

——Huh? I thought you were going to say something weird, but I am her wife, right?

——Wait! That's not right!

It only took Shengsheng a moment to realize something was wrong.

Good guy.

The last time she called me "Madam", her accent was different from the usual one!

The "Madam" that was usually addressed was a respectful title for the female host of the clan, and the Madam that was transmitted was the real Madam...

——Damn Jiao slave! As expected, he has always coveted Shengsheng.

"no!"

Shengsheng glared at the other person fiercely.

"Humph, if you're not afraid of being beaten to death by Youyouzi, then go ahead and scream."

She was speaking sarcastically, as a warning.

Who knew that Lu Jiao had grown bolder? Perhaps it was because of her increased strength and the attention of the Immortal Official [He Kui], she actually said...

"Madam, Yuanyuan will surpass Ning Yun sooner or later."

Lu Jiao made the promise with a determined look on his face, as if he was going to accomplish something great and just.

——Hey, hey, hey, don’t make a mistake.

——You want to defeat Youyouzi just because you want to get me. Don't make it sound like you have made a sacred oath to protect all the people on earth.

of course.

Shengsheng didn't take it too seriously. After all, Youyouzi was already in the Daluo Huiming stage, which was the third stage of Daluo, and was not far from the final enlightenment. And Lu Jiao had just entered the Daluo Chuxiao... Don't think that there was only a small stage difference between them.

But this can reach the Daluo level.

Even a peerless beauty like Youyou Yingying took more than two hundred years to take this small step.

Even if Lu Jiao's talent was helped by the crystal, he could only barely catch up with Youyouzi and the others. Not to mention that there was a 200-year gap between them...

You see, Yingying is only about ten years behind Youyouzi due to the age difference. However, she has been catching up for so many years, and she is always a step behind Youyouzi.

It turns out.

Unless you have a super adventure, it will be difficult to make up for the realm gap caused by talent.
