"What about now? Do you want to follow him in? "
Watching the young man's figure walk into the palace where the bath was located, the two Shadow Guards lurking in the shadows once again silently communicated.
"Nonsense! If we don't follow him in, what if something happens? "
He wasn't a little girl, what was there to avoid? In any case, His Majesty wouldn't be able to discover them.
The two shadows discussed for a moment before sneaking off again.
They avoided all the guards' eyes and successfully approached the palace, but when they broke through the wall and wanted to continue to sneak into the main hall, they encountered an obstacle …
Their auras were completely locked down.
An invisible force had imprisoned them, rendering them unable to move!
Assassins!
Ying Jiu and Ying Shi were shocked and were just about to call out when a pair of black military boots quietly appeared in front of the two shadows.
They recognized this pair of boots.
Sure enough, after raising their field of vision, they were met with a pair of grey blue eyes that were filled with majesty and indifference, one they were used to seeing.
"Sir Si Sheng …"
Ying Jiu saw this and wanted to restore his figure, but he heard the man coldly say, "Go out, I'm here."
His low and indifferent voice revealed an unquestionable domineering aura, causing the two Shadow Guards to not dare utter a single word. After gently nodding in salute, the two shadows once again returned the way they had come.
Their speed doubled compared to when they first arrived, giving off a feeling of fleeing.
Watching their figures disappear outside the wall, Si Sheng withdrew his gaze. His gaze …
Fell on the back of the palace.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Inside the palace, Xu Sili finally arrived outside the bath.
The maids had already prepared everything, and the bathtub was also filled with water. The steaming hot steam dispelled all the coldness.
Feeling the warmth, Xu Sili sighed secretly.
Seeing the maids salute him, he waved his hand and said, "Put down the things, all of you can go out, I'll call you when I need you."
The clear and gentle voice of a young man revealed a sense of indifference and laziness.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The maids did not disobey. They placed the items beside the bath and left respectfully one by one, closing the door behind them.
Following the muffled squeaking sound, Xu Sili was the only one left in the huge palace.
He looked at the spacious bathtub in front of him and curled his lips slightly.
"Huala-"
The outer robe was taken off and gently fell to the ground.
As his footsteps approached the bathing pool, one piece of exquisite clothing after another fell to the ground.
Fog swirled around, concealing a jade-white figure.
Her tender white feet tightened, and the tip of her foot lightly touched the pool water, creating circles of ripples.
Then, the pair of feet completely stepped into the pool. Step by step, they walked down the stairs until the entire figure was submerged in the water.
A faint sigh sounded from the spacious hall and lingered under the dome.
Xu Sili rested his head on the edge of the bathtub with his eyes slightly closed. He felt that his whole body was wrapped in warmth, and all the tiredness and coldness in his body were dispelled.
Bathing was indeed one of life's greatest pleasures.
He felt as if his whole body had melted into the water, and he was light as a feather.
The steam made him a little dizzy, and his exhausted body felt dizzy because of the heat.
However, he did not care much and just leaned lazily on the edge of the bathtub. His head of silver hair was loose, and half of it fell into the water and floated in the hot water.
He brushed away the strands of hair and accidentally swept across his chest.
There were still red and purple bruises on his fair skin, and they were faintly painful.
These were left behind when Si Sheng stepped on the throne last night.
Xu Sili pursed his lips, and his eyelids were half-closed. His originally good mood was instantly tainted with anger and depression.
This fellow's foot was so heavy, and he really did not show any mercy.
Furthermore …
Xu Sili lifted his leg again and pressed on his sore ligaments. He cursed Si Sheng several times in his heart.
Just wait and see.
Wait until my strength surpasses his, I will definitely do all of these to him.
What's the point of stepping on his face? It doesn't hurt at all.
Xu Sili snorted coldly and forced himself to calm down.
He glanced at the plate of fruits left behind by the maid, turned around, and leaned on the edge of the bathtub. He reached out and plucked a grape and stuffed it into his mouth.
He was too lazy to move, so he leaned on the edge of the bathtub while tasting the grape.
It's too comfortable … so comfortable that I don't want to move …
As he leisurely thought about this, the youth gently hummed a song.
That was his favorite song, a lazy little tune, like a cat bathed in the sun in winter, bright and beautiful, so beautiful that it made people yearn for it …
What he did not know was that somewhere on the roof of the palace, a figure had appeared there at some point.
That pair of grayish-blue eyes had been staring at him.
Until now, when she heard him humming the song, waves suddenly surged in those eyes, like a calm sea that was swept by a hurricane, rolling up layers of waves.
After an unknown amount of time, the palace regained its silence.
The humming youth had stopped. He leaned on the edge of the bathtub with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.
The palace was silent and empty, only the sound of one or two drops of water could be heard from time to time.
The person on the roof also calmed down.
He looked at everything below, and with a flash of his figure, he silently appeared beside the bathtub.
Just as he was about to approach, the tip of his ear moved slightly.
"Knock, knock, knock — —"
Outside the palace, a maid held clothes and gently knocked on the door.
"Your Majesty, the head maid said that you can't soak for too long, otherwise you will faint. She asked us to go in and help you change."
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty? "
There was no response for a long time. The maids looked at each other, continued to knock on the door, and then carefully listened to the movement inside.
Just now, they could still vaguely hear the singing, but now it was quiet, not a sound at all.
"Did something happen to Your Majesty?"
The maids looked at each other, and one of the maids who was obviously a rank higher, gritted her teeth and wanted to directly push the door and enter.
His Majesty was benevolent, even if they had offended him, he probably would not do anything to them. But if something happened, it would not be as simple as a punishment.
But, just as she was about to push the door, she suddenly heard a cry of surprise.
What had happened?
She looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a blond man in a military uniform appear at the end of the corridor.
"Lord Si Sheng!"
She also cried out in surprise, and then bowed together with the other maids.
From today onwards, Lord Si Sheng would live in the palace to protect His Majesty's safety. In just one day, this news had already spread throughout the palace.
At this moment, seeing him, the maids and guards did not suspect anything. They looked at him with admiration and worship, and there was no panic.
Si Sheng walked to the door of the palace as if nothing had happened.
Listening to the maids report the current situation to him, he nodded casually, looked at the clothes in their hands, and said softly,
"I'll go in, it's not convenient for you."
"Yes, Lord Si Sheng."
A maid held the tray in her hands, waited for him to take it, and then respectfully retreated to the side.
"Yi ya — —"
Si Sheng pushed the door open and entered.
As he walked in, the palace door behind him slowly closed, isolating him from the eager gazes of the maids.
He casually hung the clothes in his hands on the hanger, then walked to the side of the bathtub again and looked at the unconscious youth who was still lying on the edge of the bathtub.
He quietly watched for a while, then neatly took off his military jacket and boots, and stepped into the bathtub step by step, approaching the slender figure.
This time, no one came to disturb him.
Amidst the sound of flowing water, the man approached the youth, held his slender arm, and carefully pulled him into his arms, letting him lean on the crook of his arm.
His grayish-blue eyes stared deeply at the youth.
Even at this moment, the youth's eyes were still tightly shut, his fair face stained with a flush, and his originally ivory white skin was steamed pink by the hot steam.
The youth, who had always been cold to him, had now let down all his guard and quietly stayed in his arms, obedient and docile.
Si Sheng pursed his lips, and did not continue to delay in the water.
He bent slightly, put his arms through the youth's legs, and carried him horizontally.
"Splash — —"
Following his movements, more sounds of flowing water could be heard.
Amidst this background noise, the man walked out of the bathtub, pulled the bathrobe on the hanger, and wrapped the youth's body, covering the seductive scenery.
In a daze, Xu Sili felt that something was wrong.
He wanted to open his eyes, but he was too sleepy. He was so tired, and he wanted to sleep …
He was already mentally exhausted from using the Star Web too much. Although he had slept, he had not fully recovered.
After that, he had tested Si Sheng's sword moves and overused his physical strength. Now that he had fallen asleep, he did not want to wake up at all.
In the end, he let himself go.
He even dreamed that he was back on the bed. He stretched out his arms, hugged the "pillow" into his arms, and rubbed it comfortably.
Si Sheng's movements paused.
At this moment, he carried the little Emperor to the side hall.
There was a bed set up here, and after the bath, if he did not want to return to the palace, he could rest here.
Just as he put the youth on the bed, the youth suddenly reached out and hugged his shoulders, and even rubbed his cheeks intimately.
The way he squinted his eyes made him look like a cat that had stolen a fish.
Si Sheng's body was a little stiff, and the ears under his golden hair were faintly red.
After a long time, he slowly relaxed.
His palm hesitantly rested on the top of the youth's head, but when he touched the wet hair, he frowned slightly.
He did not seem to make any movements, but his palm brushed past the youth's silver hair. When he opened his palm, a small ball of water was suspended in the middle of his palm.
At the same time, the youth's hair had become dry and fluffy.
When he squeezed his palm, the ball of water did not splatter in all directions. Instead, it turned into invisible water elements and dissipated in the air.
After doing all this, Si Sheng's gaze once again fell on Xu Sili's face.
He stretched out his hand and gently stroked the youth's cheek with the pad of his finger.
The abnormal redness on the youth's face had faded, and his skin had returned to its original jade-white color.
"You are 'He', right?"
Si Sheng stared at the youth. His voice was low and hoarse, like a traveler who had walked in the desert for a long time and finally saw the oasis that he had been longing for in his despair.
But he was also afraid that it was just a mirage.
"Or …"
The man's voice suddenly became gloomy, and in his grayish-blue eyes, there was a repressed violence that wanted to destroy everything.
"Did He sing that song to you too? And even … taught you? "
Si Sheng stared at the youth under him, wanting to get an answer.
However, he had too little information.
He was just a plaything that the Lord God would play with when he thought of him. When he lost interest in him, he abandoned him without any hesitation.
He had waited for countless years in that dark and lonely world, and had finally regained the light with great difficulty, but he had long lost his favor …
Si Sheng's palm uncontrollably stroked the youth's neck.
He hated, he resented, but he could not suppress his desire.
The Lord God …
Why was he not willing to appear again? He was not even willing to say a word to him? Did he do something wrong?
He often had this kind of confusion, but he could not think of an answer.
Could this new little Emperor give him an answer?
Si Sheng narrowed his eyes dangerously.
But before he could take another step, the youth under him suddenly frowned.
Xu Sili groaned uncomfortably, then suddenly exerted force. Si Sheng was caught off guard, and his entire face was buried in the youth's neck. His thin lips just like that …
She kissed him on his tender skin.
The youth crossed his legs and hooked them around his waist. His hands moved away from his neck and hugged his head instead. His palms rubbed his blonde hair and patted it comfortingly.
Then, everything quieted down.
Si Sheng's lips were still pressed against the youth's neck.
A faint milky fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose. He could feel the blood flowing under the youth's delicate skin, and the slight beating of his carotid arteries.
"Thump thump —"
That was the sound of a heart beating, but he could not tell who the violent sound belonged to …
Early in the morning, Xu Sili woke up from his sleep.
Last night, he slept very deeply. He seemed to have dreamt of the big golden retriever he used to raise. He could not sleep, so he had to kill it with a hug to calm it down.
In his previous life, before he got into trouble, the dog had already died of old age, so it could be considered to have died of old age …
Xu Sili thought about his childhood playmate, and suddenly noticed an unfamiliar dome.
He was confused for a moment, then suddenly woke up.
Damn, where am I?
He flipped over and sat up. Looking at the unfamiliar empty palace, he scratched his head blankly.
As he moved, the blanket slid off his body, revealing his snow-white skin. At the same time, a chill attacked him, causing him to shiver.
Xu Sili blinked.
Huh? Why am I not wearing clothes?
Then, he noticed the neatly arranged robes at the end of the bed. On top of them was the communication device he took off last night.
Well, even though he did not understand the situation, he thought that there was no danger.
After coming to this world, he had encountered several dangers, so he was a little frightened.
He must have taken a bath last night and fell asleep. Then, he was sent to this bedroom by the guards, right?
Thinking of this, Xu Sili got up and crawled to the end of the bed. He took the robes and suddenly realized …
Huh? His ligaments did not hurt anymore?
Xu Sili sat up straight and touched his inner thigh. There was still some pain from yesterday, but now there was no feeling at all.
Then, he noticed that the bruise on his chest had completely disappeared. It was white and tender, without a trace left behind.
He slightly curved his lips, then suddenly became absent-minded.
In his mind, an image suddenly flashed — —
A man's palm gently stroked his chest … — —
"Your Majesty?"
The voice from outside interrupted Xu Sili's thoughts. He came back to his senses, but the image that just flashed in his mind could not be grasped.
He carefully thought about it again, but could not remember what that image was.
Forget it, I can't remember.
Xu Sili gave up.
The voice outside the door sounded again. He responded, then grabbed the robes at the end of the bed and put them on.
He got off the bed, but could not find any slippers, so he walked out barefoot.
Outside was indeed the place where he took a bath last night.
At this time, the water had been drained, leaving only some water stains at the bottom of the pool, sparkling under the sunlight.
Xu Sili could not help but look up at the sky.
Of course, he could not see the sky because it was blocked by the dome. The sunlight shone in through the glass window.
He remembered that in "Game of Gods", there was a huge outdoor bath in Si Sheng's Dark Duke's Castle.
It would be great if he could take a bath in that bath.
After the experience last night, he felt that it was still a little stuffy and not very ventilated.
Xu Sili thought as he walked out of the hall. Breathing in the fresh air outside, he could not help but stretch.
When he woke up, he felt refreshed.
So comfortable.
"Your Majesty, shall I take you to wash up?"
The maid behind him was called Jenna. She used to be Snow Roland's personal servant, and was an ordinary person.
At this moment, she lowered her head slightly and asked respectfully.
"Yes."
Xu Sili nodded and followed behind her to wash up. He thought of something and asked, "Has Xiao Qiong already gone to the academy?"
Jenna thought for a moment and replied,
"His Highness is served by Natasha. I don't know the details, but I heard that the Elementalist College has an early morning class and requires one to be there at 6 am."
The Elementalist College was a place to nurture high-level warriors, and could not tolerate delicate flowers. The students received strict training from a young age.
In this aspect, the college did a good job.
Xu Sili looked at the time. It was already 7 am. Xiao Qiong had been at the college for more than an hour.
So tiring …
She had wanted to have breakfast with him.
Sigh, looks like today is another day of loneliness.
Sitting in the empty dining room, Xu Sili looked at the long table that could accommodate dozens of people with a snow-white tablecloth in front of him. Xu Sili pursed his lips slightly and ate the not-so-tasteless breakfast.
He decided to eat a few mouthfuls and end it quickly.
After stuffing a mouthful of white bread into his mouth, Xu Sili picked up the milk that he liked and sipped it lightly.
He thought of something and asked Jenna, "Right, did I fall asleep when I was bathing last night?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Jenna replied.
Xu Sili was a little embarrassed. "Then it must have been hard on you."
"Your Majesty is joking. It is our honor to be able to serve Your Majesty. Furthermore …"
Jenna hesitated for a moment and said, "Last night, it was Sir Si Sheng who carried you out."
She still remembered that when the Marshal came out, his body was wet. It seemed that he had gone into the water.
"Cough — cough cough —"
Xu Sili was not prepared and accidentally choked. He immediately coughed violently.
What the hell?
Si Sheng carried him out? He was not wearing any clothes at that time!
F * ck, why is this guy here?
Xu Sili's heart was in chaos. The more he thought about it, the more he coughed. His face was red from coughing and tears were about to flow out.
Seeing this, Jenna hurriedly went forward and patted his back to help him breathe.
However, after patting twice, her back suddenly stiffened.
An indescribable feeling caused Jenna to stop. She stiffly turned her head and saw a tall figure appear at the door. A pair of cold, greyish-blue eyes were staring at her.
Or rather, it was the young Emperor beside her.
"Sir Si Sheng."
Jenna hesitated for a moment, then retracted her hand and respectfully retreated to the side.
Xu Sili finally managed to catch his breath. Hearing this, he could not help but look in the direction that Jenna was bowing to. Indeed, he saw a familiar figure standing there.
He glared at Si Sheng, somewhat annoyed.
However, this time, the man avoided his gaze.
He first glanced to the side, then lowered his eyes and bowed to Xu Sili.
"Good day, Your Majesty."
His respectful appearance was elegant and gentle, without any trace of madness or violence.
Xu Sili pursed his lips and did not want to bother with him.
He lowered his eyebrows and picked up the white bread again, slowly eating it.
Unexpectedly, the chair beside him was suddenly moved aside.
The tall figure of the man sat on his right. That powerful presence made it difficult for Xu Sili to ignore him.
He glanced sideways and looked at him unhappily. "What are you sitting here for?"
"To accompany Your Majesty for a meal."
Si Sheng still did not look back at him, only saying indifferently.
"I don't want to eat with you." Xu Sili coldly snorted.
"But, I want to."
The man's calm words stunned Xu Sili.
He looked at Si Sheng as if he was meeting him for the first time. At this moment, Si Sheng finally looked up and met his gaze.
His gray-blue eyes were deep and enchanting. At this moment, they were slightly curved, revealing a faint smile.
"May I? Your Majesty. "He asked softly.
Xu Sili looked at the faint smile on his face and slightly clenched his fists.
The palace quietened down.
The two of them looked at each other for a long time. Then, Xu Sili picked up the slightly cold milk and took a sip.
"If you want to eat, eat. Don't talk to me!"
Si Sheng still smiled faintly and nodded lightly. He then looked at Jenna and said, "Sorry to trouble you."
Jenna was secretly sizing up the Emperor and the Marshal. Her expression was somewhat absent-minded. When she heard Si Sheng's words, she hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes, please wait a moment, Lord Si Sheng."
Not long after, she placed the cutlery on the table for Si Sheng.
Then, she asked, "Lord Si Sheng, would you like milk or coffee?"
Si Sheng looked at the little Emperor, who was drinking milk, and smiled slightly. "Milk."
"Yes, Lord Si Sheng."
Jenna sensed his gaze and blinked. She did not dare to say anything and skillfully filled his cup with milk.
Si Sheng picked up the milk and took a sip.
It was a little sweet. It was...
The milky fragrance of the little Emperor.
He lowered his eyes and silently ate his breakfast.
This meal was very quiet. Although Si Sheng was very obedient and did not talk to him, Xu Sili still felt a little uneasy.
This guy's presence was too strong.
But for some reason, he had planned to hastily finish his breakfast, but for some reason, he finished everything.
He even ate until he was a little bloated.
After finishing the last sip of milk, Xu Sili put down the glass and prepared to leave.
It was too strange!
The current atmosphere made him feel very strange.
He should quickly leave and see how the song that was posted on the Star Web last night was doing. Then, he would look for Xiao Wu to talk about the outside world.
"Enjoy your meal."
After speaking, he wanted to leave, but was stopped by Si Sheng.
The man looked at him with his grey-blue eyes. At first, he was surprised, but then a smile flashed across his face.
For some reason, Xu Sili felt that this smile was much more sincere than before.
Then, under his puzzled gaze, the man took out a handkerchief and handed it to him.
Xu Sili blinked. He did not understand what he was doing.
Si Sheng seemed a little helpless.
He sighed softly and reached out to hold his arm, pulling him to his side.
Under Xu Sili's stunned gaze, he raised the handkerchief and carefully wiped the milk foam from the boy's mouth...
