He had just been reborn when he was imprisoned by his nemesis, the Empress?

The egg broke.

Yes, Xu Yi only needed to squeeze it lightly, and the seemingly hard eggshell shattered, with the egg liquid flowing down his fingers.

Xu Yi was stunned. He hadn't used any force at all. Why were the eggs laid by these fourth and fifth-tier demonic beasts so fragile?

Upon seeing his egg break, the stall owner's smile vanished instantly, and he raised his voice, yelling at Xu Yi.

"Oh my gosh! What are you going to do if you're not going to buy it?!"

The stall owner was also shaped like an egg, with a pointed head. He reached out to stop Xu Yi and shouted.

"You have to pay for this egg! You absolutely have to pay for it!"

After saying that, he pointed to several other eggs on the stall that were covered in egg yolk, his tone becoming even more agitated.

"And these eggs over there are covered in egg yolk; how am I supposed to sell them?"

"You have to pay for this too! One egg costs one hundred low-grade spirit stones, five eggs cost one thousand, not a single stone less!"

Xu Yi frowned, shook the egg liquid off his hands, and spoke with a hint of displeasure.

"Are you trying to scam me? Are fourth-tier monster eggs really that fragile? They break with the slightest touch. It's clearly your egg that's faulty."

Upon hearing this, the stall owner immediately jumped up, pointed at Xu Yi's nose, and cursed.

"I'm trying to scam you? You stinking outsider, what do you mean by that? Are you looking for trouble?"

"Our Meteor Lake is a kind and honest place where people never bully outsiders. This is slander!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the stall owners around him seemed to be activated, and they all put down what they were doing and gathered around.

There were vendors selling monster pelts and spirit herbs, all staring at Xu Yi with hostile eyes, surrounding him, Qingqing, and Bai Li.

One of the men, who had a medium-length haircut, took a step forward.

The man was tall and thin, with a scar on his face, and spoke in a fierce tone.

"Arno, why waste your breath on him!"

"He's dressed like a respectable man, he must have spirit stones in his pocket. If he doesn't give us money, we'll take him down."

"Let him know what happens when he messes with the people of Meteor Lake."

The people around immediately chimed in.

"Exactly! They dare to act wildly in our area, they're asking for trouble!"

"Pay up! Otherwise, nobody's leaving here alive!"

Seeing this, Bai Li immediately stood in front of Xu Yi, baring her teeth and breathing loudly at the surrounding stall owners.

Looking at the group of unruly people below the Dharma Aspect Realm in front of him, Xu Yi didn't say anything. He simply bent down, picked up Bai Li, and walked towards the back.

Seeing this, Arno became even more furious.

"Hey...stop right there!"

Before he could finish speaking, his body suddenly and without warning torn into pieces, blood splattering everywhere.

Immediately afterwards, the stall owners who had gathered around were also torn apart as if by an invisible force, shattering into pieces.

"Aaaaaah! Murder! Murder!"

"Aaaaaah!"

"Aaaaaaaahh ...

Qingqing also started screaming in fear; in fact, she was the loudest screamer in the entire room.

In his previous life, when Xu Yi was a demonic cultivator, he was often treated as a pushover and a righteous character because of his handsome and gentle face.

At that time, he often had to take action, ending other people's lives with great sorrow.

And in this life.

With the boost from the system's charm value, his appearance became even more handsome, and coupled with the long-term suppression by Su Qingluan, his temperament became even more like that of a soft person.

No, this absolutely cannot continue.

In the future, I will have to take the lead in most of the time I spend with Su Qingluan and Jiang Xuange.

I must be a tough person, never a weak one again.

......

Outside, the palace lanterns inside the sleeping quarters still shone with a soft light.

Dressed neatly in a black robe, Su Qingluan looked at the sleeping Xu Yi with a gentle smile on her lips.

She slowly walked forward and gently placed her hand on his hair.

The spiritual energy flowed silently into Xu Yi's body, and soon, Xu Yi's figure shrank again.

He turned back into that chubby little boy, his face still showing the innocent look of someone fast asleep.

Su Qingluan leaned down and quickly bit Xu Yi's small mouth, kissing him. Their lips touched.

The soft touch of her red lips lingered briefly before she vanished in a flash.

Xu Yi was awakened by the sudden kiss. He opened his eyes groggily and looked down at his chubby hands.

He instantly realized who had done it, and angrily got out of bed to find Su Qingluan.

Jiang Xuange, who was standing nearby, was awakened by his commotion.

She quickly sat up, reached out and hugged the angry little boy, gently patting his back to soothe him.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Did Xu Yi have a nightmare?"

Just as Xu Yi was about to speak, a large number of golden characters suddenly appeared in the air in front of him; it was Su Qingluan's handwriting.

"I'm going into seclusion now, goodbye baby~ Remember to eat well, don't run around, stay home obediently, and wait for me to return..."

A small heart pattern follows it.

Seeing Su Qingluan treating him like a child, giving him advice that only parents would say.

Xu Yi was unsure whether to be angry or helpless.

He was angry that Su Qingluan had shrunk him again without permission, but he also felt a little reluctant to let her leave.

Jiang Xuange held him, gently comforting him, patting his back lightly with her fingertips, trying to calm him down.

Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang in her mind.

"Don't take him out to run around. I've put a curse on you. If you dare to step out of the palace, I'll let you know what it means to suffer a fate worse than death."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuange's face remained expressionless, though a hint of annoyance flashed in his eyes.

She had already discovered that she was under a curse that morning, but she was still very unhappy about being threatened like this.

Jiang Xuange swallowed, suppressing her discomfort, and looked down at Xu Yi, who was puffing up in her arms. She couldn't help but kiss his soft cheek.

"Xu Lang, don't be angry... Su Qingluan is only doing this for your own good. From now on, I'll be with you. Let's stay in the palace and make the best of it, okay?"

Xu Yi frowned:

When Su Qingluan returns, I'll definitely give her a good thrashing...

Seeing that Xu Yi was hanging his head and ignoring her, Jiang Xuange's watery eyes instantly became misty.

She lowered her eyes slightly and asked, feigning grievance.

"Xu Yi...does he not want to stay with me...?"

Her slender fingers gently twisted the hem of her dress, her shoulders trembling slightly.

"Has Xu Yi stopped loving me a long time ago...?"

Xu Yi was pulled back to reality by Jiang Xuange's words. He twisted his body to face her, reached out his small hands to hug her, and rubbed his head against her soft chest.

"No, how could that be? I've always liked you."

Jiang Xuange's body stiffened for a moment, then a barely perceptible hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

"Really? You mean it?"

"Um......"

Xu Yi nodded heavily, drawing out his words.

Who said Jiang Xuange's figure is like a wooden board? Her figure is amazing.

He paused, then remembered his business, and looked up at Jiang Xuange with pleading eyes, asking...

"Xuange, do you know how to undo this spell?"
