The pavilion quieted down. Only the elegant and soothing sound of the zither lingered in everyone's ears.
Ji Tianxing tasted a few mouthfuls of the spirit tea. He felt that after the tea entered his mouth, its fragrance overflowed and the taste was wonderful.
After the tea entered his throat, it turned into rolling spirit energy that surged into his body.
Immediately, his True Essence surged even more, and his spirit was also refreshed.
"Prince Kunwu's spirit tea is indeed extraordinary. It can be said to be the best." Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and praised.
Ji Ke didn't want to taste any tea. He just sat quietly and waited for Kunwu to start talking.
However, when she smelled the fragrance of the spirit tea and heard Ji Tianxing's evaluation, she couldn't help but pick up the teacup and take a small sip.
As soon as she started tasting the tea, she was attracted by the miraculous effects of the spirit tea and couldn't stop.
Seeing this, Kunwu smiled slightly and said proudly, "This is the best spirit tea from my clan's spirit mountain. If the two of you like it, you can taste it to your heart's content."
Ji Tianxing put down the teacup and said seriously, "The spirit tea has been tasted. Can Prince Kunwu talk about business now?"
Kunwu nodded slightly and stared at him. He asked seriously, "Ji Tianxing, do you believe in fate?"
Ji Tianxing couldn't help but frown and asked, "What do you mean?"
Kun Wu smiled and said in a sincere tone, "You might not believe me when I tell you about this.
A few days ago, on the day I returned to the Monarch Mansion, I saw Ji Ke in the crowd when I passed by the street.
I don't know why, but I always felt that I knew her and that there was a wonderful fate between us. "
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing and Ji Ke both frowned and looked at him, quietly waiting for him to continue. They didn't know what he wanted to do.
Kunwu continued, "After that, I thought about it for two days. My mind has been haunted by this matter.
My heart was restless, which naturally affected my martial arts cultivation. I had to untie this knot in my heart.
Thus, this Monarch ordered people to secretly investigate Ji Ke's name and residence. Only then did this Monarch send her an invitation, wanting to meet her. "
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and asked, "We've already made the appointment and you've seen the person. What do you want to do?"
Kun Wu waved his hand and said, "Ji Tianxing, you don't have to take it to heart. I just want to ask her a few questions."
Then, he looked at Ji Ke and asked, "Miss Ji Ke, may I ask where you are from and where you live?"
Ji Ke didn't understand what he was up to and could only answer truthfully, "I'm from the Qingyun Kingdom of the Tianchen Region."
Kun Wu nodded and asked, "How many people do you have in your family? Who are his parents? "
Ji Ke's gaze turned playful as a teasing smile appeared on his lips. He replied, "My family is too big. There are at least three to five thousand people."
"Huh?" Kun Wu was stunned and didn't know whether to laugh or cry at her answer.
Ji Tianxing chuckled and explained, "Prince Kun Wu, Ke Ke's background isn't a secret. If you send people to investigate, you'll naturally find out.
I'll tell you directly. Ke Ke is the princess of the Qingyun Kingdom's royal family. "
"Oh, I see." Kun Wu was enlightened and revealed a smile.
Next, Kun Wu asked Ji Ke a few more questions and indirectly asked about her family background.
Ji Ke wasn't scheming and he was magnanimous and innocent. He didn't have anything to hide so he answered truthfully.
An hour later, Kun Wu had asked everything that she could ask, so the conversation ended here.
Ji Tianxing and Ji Ke got up and bid farewell. "Prince Kun Wu, if there's nothing else, we'll take our leave."
Kun Wu quickly got up and sent them off. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Miss Ji Ke, for clearing my doubts. If fate allows, we'll meet again.
Ji Tianxing, you're an interesting guy. I hope you can pass the assessment next month and become the new Emperor. "
"I'll be counting on your auspicious words." Ji Tianxing cupped his hands and flew across the lake with Ji Ke. They left the Heart Nourishing Lake.
The captain of the guards stayed by the lakeside and led the way back to where they came from.
Kun Wu stood in the pavilion in the middle of the lake and watched Ji Tianxing and Ji Ke's figures leave. A playful smile appeared on his face.
"Whether it's true or not, we'll know soon enough."
He muttered to himself and turned to walk out of the pavilion. He stepped into the air and left the Heart Nourishing Lake.
…
After Ji Tianxing left the Star Moon Village with Ji Ke, they flew across the sky and returned to Zhongzhou City.
Ji Ke looked back at the Star Moon Village and couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Brother Tianxing, that guy Kun Wu invited us here just to have a cup of tea and ask about my background.
Why did he investigate me? What is he trying to do? "
Ji Tianxing was also confused. He shook his head and said, "He's a Demon Prince and also an Emperor's Son. Logically speaking, it's impossible for him to have anything to do with you.
However, he must have other intentions for spending so much effort to invite you to meet him.
Unfortunately, I can't see through him and can't guess his intentions. "
Ji Ke frowned and curled her lips. "Forget it. Who cares what his intentions are? We'll just ignore him in the future."
"Okay." Ji Tianxing nodded and didn't say anything else.
Soon, forty-five minutes passed and the two of them were far away from the Star Moon Mountain.
Ji Ke hugged Ji Tianxing's arm and looked down at the mountains and rivers below.
Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, causing her body to tremble and her face to turn pale.
She endured the pain and was about to circulate her energy to investigate the situation.
At this moment, it was as if a ball of fire had ignited in her abdomen. It quickly spread and rushed into her limbs and bones.
In the blink of an eye, her entire body became scalding hot and bean-sized beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
The intense pain assaulted her like waves and she couldn't hold on any longer. She let out a painful groan.
"Ugh … Brother Tianxing, I … I feel terrible!"
Ji Tianxing also noticed that Ji Ke's situation wasn't good.
Seeing that her entire body was red and her arms and cheeks were scalding hot, he quickly landed on a mountain peak.
After Ji Ke's feet touched the ground, she couldn't stand steadily and fell onto the grass.
She hugged her head with both hands and groaned in pain. She was actually rolling on the ground in pain.
"Ahhh … My head … It's going to split open!
It hurts! Brother Tianxing, I'm in so much pain! "
Seeing Ji Ke in so much pain, Ji Tianxing was instantly filled with anxiety.
"Ke Ke, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly become like this? "
As he spoke, Ji Tianxing quickly held Ji Ke's hand and used his spiritual sense to investigate the situation in her body.
Soon, he found that there was an extremely violent and strange energy in Ji Ke's body. It was rampaging and spreading.
Not only that, even her head was filled with that violent energy and her mind was in a mess.
Ji Tianxing quickly used his True Essence and injected it into Ji Ke's body. He wanted to help her suppress that strange energy and reduce her pain.
