Chapter 262

Xi noticed the faint sorrow in the Heavenly Emperor’s eyes and then her dark purple eyes flickered, “Are you missing my mom again?”

The Heavenly Emperor came to his senses and rubbed Xi’s head, “No, I’m thinking about where you went yesterday.”

Hearing that, Xi hesitated and dropped her eyes, “Well, I just walked around the Immortal World.”

Staring at Xi wringing the hem of her dress, the Heavenly Emperor slightly curled his lips, “Oh yeah? You didn’t get out of the Immortal World?”

“No.” Xi looked at the Heavenly Emperor and changed the topic, “Well, can you ask Shi Xiuzhu to stop following me?”

The Heavenly Emperor arched his brows, “Do you like him?”

“No, I don’t.” Xi shook her head without hesitation. Of course she didn’t like him. He was so affected.

Looking at Xi’s cute face, the Heavenly Emperor smiled and pinched her nose, “Who do you like then? What do you think of Zichun?”

Xi twitched her nose with displeasure, “I only regard Zichun as my brother!” She liked Zichun indeed, but she only treated him as a brother.

The Heavenly Emperor’s eyes flickered. As a father, he hoped that his daughter could live happily, but at the thought of the curse, he couldn’t help feeling worried about her.

Currently, Xi didn’t understand the Heavenly Emperor’s worry. She was immersed in her own thoughts.

In the Mo Palace of the Beast World.

Mo Heng was fiddling with a jade bottle in his hand. Inside the jade bottle was the Purple Dew given by Xi five centuries ago. She said she missed him, but it had been a long time and she didn’t come to meet him.

Suddenly, with a flash, Mo Heng disappeared from the Mo Palace.

In the Nianxue Palace of the Immortal World.

Xi was also holding the black jade pendant and mumbled, “It has been half a day. I should be able to knock on it now!”

Seeing that Xi was struggling with a frown, Mo Heng who was hiding in the darkness grinned and appeared behind Xi with a flash.

Seeming to feel someone was behind, Xi turned around. Upon seeing Mo Heng, Xi threw herself into his arms, “I miss you so much!”

While speaking, Xi was rubbing against Mo Heng, making him almost let out a groan.

Looking at the girl in his arms, Mo Heng cracked a bitter smile and secretly suppressed his desire.

“It’s quite strange!” Xi looked at Mo Heng.

Mo Heng arched his brows, “What’s wrong?”

Xi lowered her head to look at the black jade pendant and asked subconsciously, “I haven’t knocked on the jade pendant yet. Why did you show up?” Could it be that he could hear her as long as she talked to the jade pendant? If so, did he hear what she had said? At the thought of that, Xi blushed at once.

Now, Mo Heng also blushed. For the moment, he didn’t know how to answer Xi. He could only change the topic, “Why didn’t you knock on the jade pendant? Don’t you miss me?”

Without thinking much, Xi immediately said, “Of course I do. How can I not miss you? I miss you even in my dream…” Xi broke off in mid-sentence and bit her tongue. She hung her head and felt regretful. It was so stupid of her to say that.

Looking at Xi hanging her head regretfully, with a smile, Mo Heng lifted Xi’s chin and hung his head to kiss her rosy lips.

Unlike their first kiss, which was wild and bossy, this time, Mo Heng kissed her gently and affectionately.

Xi closed her eyes and enjoyed the pleasure Mo Heng brought her.

A while later, Mo Heng let go of Xi’s swollen red lips, saying in a husky voice, “Grow faster!”

“I’ve grown up.” Xi leaned against Mo Heng’s chest, gasping. She had been 1,000 years old, making her an adult now.

Hearing that, Mo Heng tightened his arm around Xi, “Not yet.” 1,000 years of age was still too young for him.

At night, Xi was still thinking about Mo Heng, holding the black jade pendant in her hand. They had just parted from each other, but she started to miss him again. She wanted to be with him forever. She didn’t want to part from him for a second.

Xi pulled up the quilt and covered her head with it. She must sleep. She must grow up faster and then marry Mo Heng so that she could be with him forever.

While Xi was hiding in the quilt, someone suddenly appeared in the room.

Feeling the abnormal fluctuation of the air, Xi suddenly pulled off the quilt and shouted in surprise, “Mo Heng!”

Seeing the enchanting face, Xi instantly withdrew her smile and frowned, “Why is it you?” Why did this woman come to the Immortal World instead of resting in recuperation in the Monster King’s Palace?

Upon hearing Xi calling Mo Heng, Liqing looked stern. Ignoring Xi’s question, she looked around Xi’s room on her own, “This room looks quite good. It seems that your father likes you very much.” Liqing thought this girl was nobody. However, it turned out that Xi was the princess of the Immortal World, who was qualified to compete with Liqing.

Hearing that, Xi arched her brows noncommittally, “What on earth brought you here? Just say it.” She didn’t believe this woman was here to visit her room. Liqing sneaked into Xi’s room at the moment. She couldn’t mean well.

Hearing Xi’s wild words, Liqing instantly put on a grim look and snorted, “The princess of the Immortal World is not cultured anyway. So vulgar.”

Xi was displeased to hear that and then pulled a long face, “Whether I’m cultured or not is none of your business. Who are you to judge me, monster?”

“You…” Angered by Xi’s words, Liqing blushed. As the princess of the Monster World, she couldn’t accept being called a monster.

Before Liqing flew into a rage, Xi said, “Besides, Mo Heng just likes me, the vulgar girl, rather than an old snotty monster like you.” Then she also made a face at Liqing.

Hearing that, Liqing got so angry that her face turned purple. She pointed at Xi and shouted, “Lou Xi, you’ve gone too far!” This damned girl called her an old monster. She was not old at all. Yet, at the thought of Xi’s age, Liqing looked sulkier.

Hearing that, Xi arched her brows, “I’ve gone too far? I’m just younger than you!” Liqing came to her place and said those outrageous words. Of course, Xi must fight back.

“You…” Liqing got mad again, but very quickly, she recalled the goal of coming here. Her coquettish eyes glistened maliciously. She took a deep breath and looked at Xi, saying unhurriedly, “Lou Xi, the princess of the Immortal World, your father is the Heavenly Emperor while your mother is the princess of the Demonic World.”

Hearing that, Xi slightly narrowed her eyes, “What on earth do you wanna say?”

Hearing that, Liqing cracked a bitter smile, “Do you know how your mother died?”

Hearing Liqing mention her mother’s death, Xi knitted her brows. What did Liqing mean? Why did Liqing mention Xi’s mother? Actually, Xi didn’t know how her mother died. Her father had never told her about it. When she was little, she had asked her father. However, every time she talked about her mother, her father always looked sad. Hence, she gradually stopped mentioning her mother. Sometimes, she would wonder what her mother looked like and what kind of person her mother was, but in her heart, her father, who was always there for her, was more important.

Staring at Xi’s alert face, Liqing slightly curled her lips, “Your mother is the princess of the Demonic World. You were born with a demon curse. You can’t bear children and if you do, you’ll die.”

Xi looked up abruptly in shock and subconsciously clenched the hem of her dress. She didn’t know what Liqing was saying.

Liqing looked at Xi’s shocked face in delight. Xi knew nothing indeed!

“You know what, your mother died during labor. It was you who got your mother killed.”

Liqing’s cruel and sharp words dealt a heavy blow to Xi like countless knives. What? Was it she who caused her mother’s death? Was she the cause of her mother’s death? Somehow, Xi’s eyes were suffused with tears.

Staring at Xi’s astonished expression, Liqing felt delighted, “There is one thing you don’t know either.”

Hearing that, Xi clenched the hem of her dress again.

Feeling Xi’s nervousness, Liqing cracked an ironic smile and said word by word, “Just like your mother, you can’t bear children.”

The curse about her being unable to bear children struck Xi dumb and made her unable to breathe at all.

However, despite that, Liqing still didn’t want to let her go.

“As a woman who can’t bear children, how can you be his wife?” Liqing directly rushed to Xi and grabbed her collars, yelling, “He is so excellent. Do you want him to have no descendants his whole life?”

Currently, Liqing was quite emotional. At the thought that he could give up descendants for this woman, she was frantically jealous. Why couldn’t this woman who couldn’t bear children for him win his heart? Yet, Liqing waited so many years for him but gained nothing. It was unacceptable for her.

Hearing Liqing mention Mo Heng, Xi couldn’t help shedding tears.

Seeing Xi crying, Liqing laughed wildly, “You should cry indeed. Do you think he will still want you after he knows the truth? Enough daydreaming. You’d better give up. It’s good for us all.”

“Your Highness.” The maids outside knocked on the door anxiously maybe because they had heard the noise in the room.

Upon hearing that, Liqing looked stern and then darted another glance at Xi sitting on the ground dully. She sneered ironically and then disappeared from the room with a flash.

While Liqing disappeared, the maids outside the room also entered the room.

“Your Highness…” Seeing Xi sitting on the ground, the maids screamed and ran to Xi, trying to help her up.

Having come to her senses, Xi pushed away the maids and rushed outside.

“Your Highness…” The maids got anxious and immediately chased outside.
