People are Fighting to Break Their Diaries! They Forced Me to Eat Soft Food

78: Chapter 78. My wedding day with Xun’er! You sit at the head table.”Regarding this issue, I can offer Her Majesty two choices.” A strange glint flashed deep in his eyes as Xiao Ting smiled and provided a solution: ”My method requires me to break through to the level of a Dou Wang first.”

”If Her Majesty is not busy with tribal affairs, you can stay by my side for a while. Once I break through to Dou Wang, I will help you evolve immediately to complete our deal.”

”If Her Majesty is busy, then you can wait within the Snake-People Clan. After I break through to Dou Wang, I will come find you in the Snake-People Clan as soon as I am free. I wouldn’t want to miss out on a favor from a future Dou Zong or even a Dou Zun expert.”

”Otherwise, we don’t really have a good way to contact each other.”

Hearing this, Medusa showed a thoughtful expression and asked after a long pause, ”Where do you usually operate?”

”I am from the Xiao Family of Wutan City in the Northeast Province.” Xiao Ting introduced himself, then added: ”However, I will soon participate in the Jia Nan Academy entrance examination and head to Jia Nan Academy in the Black-Corner Region. I should be there for a long time after that.”

”The Black-Corner Region, huh? That’s not too far.” Queen Medusa nodded after a slight hesitation, a hint of relief appearing on her stunningly beautiful face. ”Then this Queen can stay by your side for a while. If necessary, I can even protect you a bit, lest you perish before breaking through to Dou Wang and delay this Queen’s evolution.”

This stubborn and tsundere tone was very typical of Queen Medusa.

Geographically, the Black-Corner Region is also a part of the Northwest Continent. It is the most chaotic place in the Northwest Continent, where only the pure law of the jungle is followed.

The chaos of the Black-Corner Region is famous throughout the continent. It also serves as a window for the Northwest Continent to the outside world, making it an intelligence crossroads. Countless pieces of information flow in and out every day, and high-level Cultivation Methods, Dou Techniques, various divine weapons, armor, medicine cauldrons, medicinal herbs, and high-level medicinal pills appear from time to time.

The northernmost part of the Black-Corner Region borders the southern border of the Jia Ma Empire. The Tagor Desert is located in the Eastern Province. For a Dou Huang expert who can fly freely, it is indeed not far.

Because of the close proximity, the Jia Ma Empire has always been a hotspot for Jia Nan Academy’s recruitment, which is why so many disciples from the Xiao Family go to Jia Nan Academy to study.

”That’s great, I’ve gained a free bodyguard.” Xiao Ting accepted readily, even quite happily.

However, no one noticed the profound meaning flashing deep in his eyes.

”This Queen will only act when your life is in danger. Don’t even think about this Queen becoming your hired thug.” Queen Medusa snorted coldly, crossing her arms and slightly lifting her chin. ”This Queen is doing this for myself.”

”Understood, understood. It’s not me you’re protecting, but the future of Her Majesty’s safe evolution.” Xiao Ting nodded with a chuckle.

His expression and tone of voice gave Medusa an urge to punch him hard.

[Medusa]: Xun’er, control your man.

[Xun’er]: I’m afraid I can’t help; Brother Xiao Ting is just like that.

[Medusa]: He’s just a freeloading pretty boy, why do you give him so much face?

[Xun’er]: But to Xun’er, Brother Xiao Ting is very good.

[Medusa]: ...

[Yun Yun]: I feel like I’ve just watched a major drama for some reason.

”This Queen will make some arrangements within the clan and then go to the Xiao Family of Wutan City to find you.”

Having successfully obtained a valid reason to stay by Xiao Ting’s side, Medusa prepared to leave with her usual decisiveness.

”Wait a moment, Your Majesty.” Xiao Ting spoke up to stop her.

Meeting Medusa’s puzzled gaze, he smiled and rubbed his hands together. ”Your Majesty plans to use the Heavenly Flame to evolve, so you must have made many preparations in advance. You should have collected natural treasures like the ice spirit cold spring, right?”

”I have, and quite a lot of it.” Medusa understood Xiao Ting’s meaning and said with a half-smile, ”What do you plan to trade for it?”

”Talking about trading would hurt the friendship we’ve built through our fair dealings.” Xiao Ting grinned. ”I won’t use much, just give me ten or twenty bottles.”

Xiao Yi Xian and the other girls: ”...”

”I will bring ten or twenty bottles when the time comes, but whether you can take them without a trade depends on your sincerity.” Medusa waved her hand and transformed into a blood-red streak of light, vanishing toward the Snake-People Clan.

She had to play the part fully; otherwise, she could have left with Medusa right now.

”Not bad, not bad.” Looking at where Medusa had disappeared, Xiao Ting reached out and put his arm around Xun’er’s waist. ”I didn’t expect that finding one Heavenly Flame wouldn’t be enough, and I even managed to trick a peak Dou Huang into being a bodyguard and thug.”

”Trick?” Feeling the warmth from her waist, a blush crept up to the tips of Xun’er’s ears, but she did not pull away.

Only with Xiao Ting did she not mind any intimate behavior.

Ling Yue: I’m still freaking here.

”I should say persuaded, since I didn’t lie to her after all.” Xiao Ting smiled and nodded, then looked up at Ling Yue. ”Aunt Ling, please set up another spatial barrier so we aren’t discovered.”

Ling Yue: He actually called me Aunt Ling so naturally now.

And ordering me around is just as natural to him.

If this can be endured, what can’t?

So I have to endure it all!

”Seal!”

Ling Yue didn’t ask Xun’er again; she knew the latter would blindly take Xiao Ting’s side, so why bother with the trouble.

The spatial barrier was established, and Ling Yue tore open a spatial rift to step inside. ”Young Miss, please give your orders if you need anything.”

The implication was for a certain someone to shut their mouth and not think about ordering her around again.

”Brother Xiao Ting, you’ve scared Aunt Ling away.” Xun’er looked down and smiled softly.

Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin covered their mouths and giggled, finding this scene quite amusing.

A dignified Dou Zong expert, scared into hiding by a Great Dou Master.

”It’s nothing.” Xiao Ting didn’t think there was any problem at all and said as a matter of course, ”No matter how long it takes, I will definitely be with Xun’er in the future. Her guard is my guard.”

”At worst, when you and I have our grand wedding in the future, I’ll let her sit at the head table.”

”You’re getting more and more improper.” Xun’er’s face turned beet red as she spoke, and she gave Xiao Ting’s hand a mock pinch.

She didn’t understand why Xiao Ting had suddenly become so bold, but in her heart, she didn’t dislike it.

Ling Yue: It’s over, the Gu Clan’s most precious cabbage is really going to be uprooted by a pig.

Why did the Clan Leader let the Young Miss grow up in the Xiao Family in the first place?

Xiao Ting is also ridiculous, saying he’d marry the Young Miss and let me sit at the head table. He still knows nothing about the strength of the Gu Clan.

If that day ever truly came, the ones sitting at the front would definitely be the Dou Sheng Clan Leaders and high-level Dou Sheng Elders of various clans.

A Dou Zong like her wouldn’t even make it into the third circle of tables.

Wait.” Ling Yue suddenly noticed a key point.

If Xiao Ting requested it, could she actually make it to the head table and sit with the Clan Leader and the others?

At that time, those Dou Sheng Elders would be sitting below her, and maybe they’d even have to toast her?

Hiss!

Rounding it up, I’ve basically become a Dou Sheng too!?

”I can’t think about it anymore, I can’t think about it.” Ling Yue wiped away the non-existent drool from the corner of her mouth and smoothed out the upward curve of her lips.

She would definitely protect Xiao Ting well in the future and do some things for him along the way.

Not for any other reason, but strictly to follow the Young Miss’s orders.

It’s absolutely not for the sake of being able to sit at the head table on the day the two of them get married!
