Han Xue saw Han Yue's blushing face, reached out her hand and placed it on her forehead, asking.
Her older sister was a Dou Zong, how could she ever get sick, let alone catch a fever? That shouldn't happen.
"No, it's just that you were too close just now, it was hot."
"Oh, is that so? Alright then, hurry up and help me pick out an outfit, we're running out of time."
Han Xue still trusted her sister's words implicitly.
She completely forgot that her sister was of the ice attribute, so how could she be hot?
...
Under Han Chi's lead, Xiao Jietian arrived in front of an ancient-looking building. From the outside, it appeared to be a two-story pavilion.
"This is the preparation area. It was originally a two-story pavilion, but the second floor has been removed and it has been redecorated."
Han Chi introduced the pavilion to Xiao Jietian. This pavilion was also one of the Han Family's oldest and most stable buildings, normally used to store the Han Family's most precious items.
After walking inside, Xiao Jietian looked around. The space inside was enormous, perfectly suitable for a teleportation hall.
"This will do, it's completely sufficient." Xiao Jietian waved his arm, and a trace of yellow Dou Qi, carrying a hint of earth attribute, shot out from his hand and burrowed into the ground. The ground began to shake slightly.
This was the earth-attribute Dou Qi that Xiao Jietian's Wutu Thunder naturally possessed, which he was now manipulating.
Under Xiao Jietian's control, the soil on the ground slowly began to squirm. In less than a minute, a huge platform appeared before the two of them. The entire platform wasn't the color of ordinary earth, but rather had the color of rock.
Han Chi stood silently to the side, watching without making a sound.
He was eighteen that year, standing like a nobody.
Xiao Jietian took out the directional teleportation gate from his system space, tossed it forward, and the teleportation gate continuously grew larger in the air, finally settling firmly into the reserved groove.
Placing his hand on the teleportation gate, Xiao Jietian continuously injected his Dou Qi into it, then established a connection between the two gates.
As Xiao Jietian continuously input Dou Qi, the teleportation gate began to glow, and a small, vortex-like object appeared in the center of the gate.
The vortex slowly rotated, growing larger with each rotation.
After about five minutes, the edge of the vortex had reached the outermost edge of the gate.
Seeing that the teleportation channel inside was stable, Xiao Jietian stopped the flow of Dou Qi.
"How is it? Are you alright?" Han Chi asked when he saw Xiao Jietian had been continuously channeling Dou Qi for so long.
"I'm fine, I'll recover in a blink of an eye." Xiao Jietian waved his hand, looking unconcerned.
Seeing Xiao Jietian's demeanor, Han Chi couldn't help but marvel at Xiao Jietian's formidable strength.
One had to know that the amount of Dou Qi Xiao Jietian had inputted was at least dozens of times his own.
A Dou Zun expert was truly terrifying.
"Is that all? It looks a bit like a spatial wormhole."
Han Chi examined the stone gate before him. It looked similar to the spatial wormholes he usually saw, but this one appeared deeper and more mysterious, and it was also more stable than those spatial wormholes fixed in the void.
"It's ready, but we need to wait a bit. It has just connected, and it's not at its most stable yet."
"Then, can I observe this thing without causing any problems?" Han Chi asked, looking at the teleportation gate.
"No problem, as long as you don't walk inside right now."
Upon hearing this, Han Chi slowly walked to the side of the teleportation gate's frame, continuously examining the runes on it, occasionally reaching out to touch here and tap there, much like a child who had found a new toy.
...
"Xiao Jietian!!"
"Junior Xiao Tian!"
Two voices rang out behind Xiao Jietian, and two graceful figures jogged from the doorway to Xiao Jietian's side, then stood on either side of him.
Xiao Jietian noticed that Han Xue was clearly dressed up at this moment, her accessories carefully chosen.
Even more captivating was her form-fitting purple dress, which showcased her curvaceous figure.
Xu Song's sister was indeed right; purple had more charm.
Xiao Jietian reached out and stroked Han Yue's silver hair: "Ling Ling and Meng Meng both said they missed you."
"I think they just want me to take them out to play. When they come out, they'll definitely cause chaos everywhere." Han Yue had watched the two little devils grow up, so she understood their little schemes very well.
Seeing Han Yue's expression that clearly said, 'I'm not taking them out to play,' Xiao Jietian secretly thought: When the two of them team up and act cute, you'll agree without a moment's hesitation.
Last night, Han Yue had already told him the names of Xiao Jietian's two daughters and one son, so he knew who they were talking about.
When Han Xue saw Xiao Jietian affectionately stroking Han Yue's hair, a strong look of envy flashed in her eyes, impossible to conceal.
Even Han Yue, who was separated by Xiao Jietian, could tell with a slight glance.
Han Yue quietly nudged Xiao Jietian with her elbow, subtly giving him a look.
With the unspoken understanding they shared from countless intimate moments, Xiao Jietian also understood Han Yue's meaning.
Xiao Jietian turned his head, gazing at Han Xue, his eyes full of admiration: "Xue'er, your outfit is so eye-catching! This purple dress, once you put it on, instantly gives you that noble and elegant air. Coupled with your appearance and accessories, it truly is 'clouds want her clothes, flowers want her face.'"
After Xiao Jietian finished speaking, he also slightly raised his hand and stroked her hair. Han Xue's hair wasn't as deep a silver as Han Yue's, but rather a silvery color with hints of light purple.
It was a bit like a combination of Little Fairy Doctor's and Han Yue's hair color.
When Han Xue heard Xiao Jietian's words and felt his head-pat, she almost became dazed, her eyes practically turning into swirls, her head feeling lightheaded.
Her heart continuously screamed: He called me Xue'er, and he complimented how good I look today, even using such a talented phrase to praise me.
Seeing her sister like this, Han Yue helplessly rubbed her forehead.
Xiao Jietian's sentence was only a little over fifty characters, yet her sister had already crashed, completely immersed in her own world.
Han Yue also savored Xiao Jietian's words, realizing that if her beloved said these words to her, she would also feel incredibly sweet.
"What's wrong? Are you envious?" Xiao Jietian reached out and wrapped his arm around Han Yue's waist, leaning close to her ear and chuckling: "I have a line specially tailored for you. Want to hear it?"
Han Yue didn't speak, but her eyes were full of desire.
Xiao Jietian gently tugged her earlobe and said: "Like a lotus emerging from clear water, naturally unadorned."
Han Yue savored Xiao Jietian's words, and the love in her eyes almost overflowed.
"Cough cough!!"
