Jinmi did what Xufeng asked and got the Qingxin Elixir from Taishang Laojun. When she returned to Xuanji Palace, she saw Phoenix and the Little Fish Fairy sitting face to face in the hall. At the critical juncture of refining the fire spiritual power, Xufeng asked Jinmi to put down the porcelain bottle containing the elixir and go outside to guard against anyone from breaking in, which would disturb him and make his efforts to refine the fire spiritual power for Runyu in vain.
Jinmi walked outside Qizheng Hall and sat down on the threshold. The moonlight was beautiful; looking up at the stars, she took out a book that was rolled up in a barrel from her sleeves. This was what the Fox Immortal forcibly stuffed into her today when she was helping him to tidy up the red threads in the Marriage Mansion. It is said that it is the secret work of the Immortal Under the Moon, called the Tianxiang Atlas.
In order to save her friend Rourou, Jinmi is very interested in all the ways to enhance spiritual power. The Fox Immortal said that there are many ways to obtain spiritual power: you can cultivate by yourself, receive it from others, eat elixirs, and you can also increase spiritual power through dual-cultivation. He lamented that it was a pity Jinmi was a boy, but told her to study hard and understand love early, so as not to disappoint Xufeng.
Jinmi opened the book and read it under the moonlight. She suddenly felt hungry, so she took out a flower cake from her bag and nibbled on it while reading. Jinmi turned the pages and chirped, "There's nothing interesting in this." She was not very interested in the lovemaking described in the book. After turning through half of the book, she felt that it was boring and closed it.
When Jinmi looked up, she saw Princess Suihe carrying a food box in her hand, crossing the Rainbow Bridge and coming towards Xuanji Palace. Jinmi dusted the cake crumbs on her body and stood up to greet her. "Jinmi, are you here too?" Suihe knew that Jinmi was Xufeng's new little fairy bookboy and said with a slight smile, "I just went to visit my aunt. By the way, I brought Xufeng some snacks I made myself. Feixu said that Xufeng came here. Where is he? Why are you staying outside alone?"
"Oh, Phoenix?" Jinmi raised her finger and pointed to the inside of Qizheng Hall, and said innocently, "He and the Eldest Highness are inside dual-cultivating, and told me not to let anyone in." Because of the teachings of the Immortal Under the Moon, Jinmi naturally knows that men can also dual-cultivate together.
A divine thunderbolt fell from the sky and hit Suihe. The food box in Princess Suihe's hand fell to the ground, and the pastries rolled on the ground everywhere like shattered dreams.
His Second Highness the Fire God is handsome, untamed, and has made outstanding achievements on the battlefield. There are countless fairies in the Heavenly Realm who love him, but he treats them all the same. No woman has ever been treated specially by him. Even if Xufeng is polite to Suihe, he is always cold and alienated.
Suihe was heartbroken. It turned out that she had already lost from the moment her parents hatched her.
Suihe's tears were like rain, and her whole body trembled. She shouted at Xuanji Palace, "Xufeng, how can you do this to me!!!" She wiped away her tears and ran away with her face covered. Jinmi couldn't even ask her what she was yelling about.
----
Runyu usually lives away from the crowd, hides away day and night, and does not show mountain or dew. However, after all, his true body is of a Yinglong (Ancestral Dragon). The water spiritual power in his body is domineering and strong, and the flow is abundant. Xufeng thought that if Runyu were put on the battlefield, he must be a strong general.
After Xufeng helped Runyu finish refining the three hundred years of spiritual power, the red on Runyu's beautiful jade face dissipated, and his eyebrows smoothed, and his complexion looked much better. Xufeng gave the Qingxin Pill of Taishang Laojun to Luo Yu to eat. This pill is beneficial to the qi and nourishes yin, clears and calms down the mind, and can make people sleep and dream peacefully.
"It's really carefree to fall asleep like this...." The Second Highness lowered his head and looked at the elder brother who fell asleep leaning on his knee, and muttered. He looked at the door and asked casually, "Jinmi, are you still there?" After shouting several times, Xuanji Palace was still silent. Xufeng swept the area with his spiritual power, but Jinmi was nowhere to be found. Could it be that the Grape waited for too long and went back to Qiwu Palace?
Xufeng sighed and sat on another bed that was used by Runyu for cultivation, raised his sleeves to wipe the thin sweat on his forehead, and only felt tired. In the Heavenly family, only Runyu has a water spiritual root. Xufeng not only had to help him adjust and refine the three hundred years of fire spiritual power, but also had to guard against being eaten back by the water spiritual power at all times. After a while, Xufeng felt it was more time-consuming than healing his own wounds.
Xufeng thought back to why Runyu would do such a stupid thing to protect his chastity, and a headache set in. On the one hand, it was the Mother Goddess who gave birth to and raised him, and on the other hand, it was the innocent and poor elder brother. Thinking of this, Xufeng felt tormented.
Seeing that Runyu had fallen asleep peacefully, Xufeng was also eager to rest after a few days of fatigue. There was nothing urgent, so he was not in a hurry to go back to Qiwu Palace. He simply leaned against the carved armrest and lay down.
Immortals live a long life, and their childhood is also long. Although Runyu is the eldest son of the Heavenly Emperor, he suffered a lot when he was young, and his body is only a little taller than Xufeng's when they were children. He still remembers that when they were innocent and young children, they played in the Marriage Mansion of their uncle, the Immortal Under the Moon.
One is just a little phoenix flapping its immature wings and swaying, and its fur has not yet grown. The other is just a small dragon cub with sparse scales and a short dragon horn. They rolled in the red threads of the Immortal Under the Moon, carefree and unscrupulous.
When he grew up, annoying things would follow. When they were older, Mother Goddess was difficult for Runyu everywhere, and she tried to instill the idea of Runyu's wolf ambition into Xufeng all day long, asking him to alienate his brother, encircle the forces of the Bird Clan by marrying Suihe, and prepare for the future succession to the throne.
However, Xufeng felt that his Father Emperor was in his prime, and there was no hurry to set up a Crown Prince. In the matter of inheritance of the throne, Xufeng thought that whoever the Father Emperor is willing to make the Crown Prince is the right of the Father Emperor. No matter who it is, Xufeng is willing to accept it.
Runyu, who survives in the crevices of the Heavenly Realm, is self-abiding, seeks no credit, is careful not to make mistakes, and reduces his sense of existence as much as possible. Even so, Mother Goddess still refuses to let him go. Is it because Runyu was born with a good appearance, no power, no support, and even no basic dignity, so he can be easily humiliated?
At this time, Xufeng couldn't help but think that Mother Goddess is so anxious to suppress Runyu, have him alienate Runyu, and ascend the throne; could it be for an unspeakable reason? Could it be that Mother Goddess is so eager for him to ascend the throne so that she can become the Empress Dowager as soon as possible, and then she can take Runyu, who has no power and is helpless, as her forbidden lover!? He felt he had stumbled upon the truth and felt even suffocated.
Moreover, Mother Goddess did too much this time, which exceeded Xufeng's bottom line. He thought that he should find a chance to talk to Mother Goddess and dissuade her. At least what happened in the side hall of Jiuxiaoyun Hall that day could not be repeated, the Fire God thought, and he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
