Peerless Tang Sect: Snow Empress Adopts and Intercepts Jiang Nannan

Chapter 5 Snow Empress's Shy Demeanor - Jiang Nannan

The Tian Dou Empire's royal family weakened and split. The Xue family of the Tian Dou royal family established the Dou Ling Empire, with its capital in Ling Dou City, which has existed for thousands of years.

The ancient city, with its thousand-year history, has a rich historical charm.

The Battle Spirit Empire.

Spirit City.

The crowds were bustling and lively.

Their attention, however, was drawn to the three figures in the middle of the road.

A figure dressed in white, with a face ethereal and exquisitely beautiful, and white hair cascading down to her waist, resembled an elf from the snow.

She wore a bright green dress, her features were exquisite as if they were made by nature, and her green twin ponytails swayed back and forth, making her look as delicate as a porcelain doll.

The last one was as slender as a pine tree, with a handsome and heroic appearance, and dazzling purple eyes that were hard to look away from, like a noble young master walking in the mortal world.

Any one of these three figures walking down the street would be a striking sight, let alone the three of them together!

If it weren't for the chill emanating from the three of them as they moved, someone would probably have already approached them to chat.

The three were Ye Xuanxin, Xue Di, and Bing Di, who were traveling together to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Ye Xuanxin frowned as she looked at the frequent stares coming from around her.

"Phew, I should have worn a straw hat. Sometimes being too good-looking isn't a good thing."

"Hehe, Ye Xuanxin, stop being so narcissistic. These people are clearly eyeing me and Sister Xue."

"If anyone should be covering up their face, it should be me and Sister Xue who are doing it."

Hyotei couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

After speaking, she couldn't help but glance at Xue Di, who was standing silently to the side.

I felt a little strange.

These past few days, Sister Xuedi has been acting a bit strangely.

He became very cold towards that brat Ye Xuanxin, and stopped talking to him unless absolutely necessary.

Even when she and Ye Xuanxin were arguing, Sister Xuedi would not intervene to mediate; she would remain silent on the sidelines.

Although it's a good thing that Sister Xuedi no longer pays attention to Ye Xuanxin.

Ye Xuanxin looked at Bingdi's strange expression.

A sense of heaviness crept into my heart.

That kiss a few days ago seemed to have gone too far.

Now Xue Di completely ignores him, no matter how much he tries to talk to her, she won't respond unless absolutely necessary.

"Sister Xue, why do we have to come to Lingdou City? There are so many Title Douluos here. Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

Ye Xuanxin was unwilling to give up and still tried to strike up a conversation.

"Don't worry, it's just a rare opportunity, I wanted to come and have a look around."

"Most of the titled Douluo in the city have gone out. As long as the rest don't come face to face, they won't be able to find me. Even if they do, we can easily escape."

Both Xue Di and Bing Di are soul beasts, and their current human forms are just disguises. If they are discovered by humans, conflict is inevitable. Of course, a powerhouse like her, who is at the Limit Douluo level, would need to be at least a Title Douluo level to see through the disguise.

Xue Di answered coldly, her gaze never falling on Ye Xuanxin.

It drifted about, as if it were hiding from something.

Hyotei watched the two exchange words and a smile crept onto his lips.

That's wonderful! Now, Sister Xue Di is finally no longer close to this little brat.

Once he leaves, our feelings will likely cool down quickly.

At that time, I'll be there to keep Snow Empress company, hehe.

Hyotei has a secret that no one knows.

In fact, she had always secretly loved Xue Di; the love of a soul beast has no gender.

She disliked Ye Xuanxin not only because he was human, but also because he was too close to Xue Di.

Of course, if she knew that Xue Di was in this state entirely because Ye Xuanxin had kissed her, she might not be able to laugh.

"By the way, Sister Xue Di, where are we going now?"

Hyotei naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass, and quickly struck up a conversation with Yuki-tei.

When Xue Di faced her, her expression softened considerably.

"Let's find a place to stay, which humans would call a hotel."

"I've heard that human cities are more lively at night. I'll go out for a stroll again tonight, and then continue my journey tomorrow."

"Alright, I've never gone shopping in a human city with Sister Xue Di before."

Seeing the two sisters chatting and laughing, Ye Xuanxin felt even more depressed.

"Sigh, I should have known better than to be so reckless. Now I don't know what to do."

He sighed inwardly.

As dusk settles, the city lights begin to twinkle.

Lingdou City truly lives up to its reputation as an ancient city with thousands of years of history.

The night view is beautiful.

Although Ye Xuanxin and his group encountered some awkward situations due to not having identification documents when checking into the hotel, they managed to book three deluxe single rooms in the most upscale hotel in Lingdou City and even the Douling Empire thanks to their financial power.

However, Ye Xuanxin had no time to appreciate just how luxurious this private room was.

He stood nervously at the door of Xue Di's room.

He's the kind of person who has to solve problems whenever they arise.

The matter of stealing a kiss from Xue Di must be resolved. If it drags on, it might take too long, and not only will he not be able to win the beauty's heart, but the originally warm sibling relationship will also be impossible to maintain.

dong dong dong.

The knocking had just begun.

The door was opened immediately.

Inside, Xue Di's stunningly beautiful face was revealed, but at this moment, her face was cold.

Ye Xuanxin was stunned.

She immediately realized that even though the luxurious private room had the ability to block mental energy perception, it was useless against a powerful person like Xue Di. She already knew that she was standing at the door, which is why she was able to open the door immediately without asking any questions.

"Xuanxin, what's wrong?"

Her voice was heavenly, yet it had a cold tone.

"Sister Xue, I want to talk to you."

"About what happened a few days ago."

Xue Di's icy expression faltered for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.

He nodded and made way.

However, Ye Xuanxin shook her head.

"Sister Xue, let's go outside to talk, and do some shopping while we're at it."

"Alright."

Xue Di turned around and closed the door.

He walked out with Ye Xuanxin.

The spirit battle was indeed more lively at night.

Whether it's a family of three or a young couple strolling around, the streets are filled with all sorts of hawking cries.

Ye Xuanxin and Xue Di walked side by side without speaking or having a destination. Having learned their lesson, they both wore bamboo hats to block out most of the prying eyes.

Gradually, the two walked out of the bustling street.

We arrived at a low-rise shantytown.

Even Lingdou City, the capital of the Douling Empire, has such places; it is essentially still a feudal empire.

However, this has nothing to do with Ye Xuanxin.

In the dim light, he gazed at Xue Di's stunning profile.

A sudden flutter ran through my heart.

I couldn't help but reach out and grab her hand.

She struggled slightly, then gave up.

Ye Xuanxin's lips curled up slightly.

Xue Di's somewhat angry words came at this moment.

"Xuanxin, how long are you going to keep shopping? If you're going to talk, then talk now."

Ye Xuanxin nodded.

"Sister Xue."

"Actually, a few days ago I..."

He had barely opened his mouth when the sound of crying came from the alleyway beside him.

"Nannan, you really need to think this through!"

"Mysterious Water Pills are very precious."

"More than enough to save your mother."

"All you have to pay is sleep with that young master! If you serve him well, you might even become his concubine, ensuring you and your mother a life of wealth and luxury."

"Uncle Wang, I...I'll think of another way!"

"You brat! What kind of plan are you coming up with? Even one Xuan Shui Pill worth ten thousand gold soul coins isn't enough!"

"Even if you sell it, you'll have to buy it for several years!"

"These conditions are good enough for us now!"

"Aren't you supposed to be a filial son? Seeing your mother lying in a hospital bed, and now there's a chance to save her, and you're still hesitating? Are you even human?"

"Let me think of another way."

"Don't even think about it! I've already made an appointment with the Xu family's butler! I'm taking you to inspect the goods tonight!"

"Come with me! If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get another chance! Countless people are eager to get into that young master's bed!"

"No, don't pull me!"

"Stop! Wang Er! Let go of my daughter!"

"Bastard! Let go!"

It was a conversation between a middle-aged man and a crying girl, followed by the mournful cries of a middle-aged woman.

Ye Xuanxin's expression changed, and a name flashed through her mind.

"Jiang Nannan!"
