The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler

Chapter 752: Dream On

His voice was low and thick, and with his light laugh, it became even more nonchalant and relaxing.

36 Respected Elder Ming raised his eyes and looked at him.

Rong Xiu was smiling with a tinge of smiling intent in his eyes—it was like the first appearance of spring. His deep eyes weren’t looking at the chessboard but were calm and hid ripples as if he was deep in thought.

“Your Highness, you mean… There’s someone who can go against you?”

“Yeah.” Rong Xiu tilted his body and raised his elbow as he suddenly laughed when he thought of something. “I even lost quite a few times.”

“Of course.” Rong Xiu smiled with even deeper meaning, and an extremely light gentleness flashed across his eyes. “But if I meet her again, I’ll have higher chances of winning.”

Knocking sounds could be heard from outside.

“Come in,” said Rong Xiu lightly.

Yan Qing came in and first bowed to the duo before saying, “Your Highness, 36 Respected Elder Ming, people from the Ming Division came. They want to see you, 36 Respected Elder Ming.”

The Ming Division was one of the many divisions, and it was the clan in which 36 Respected Elder Ming grew up.

Due to 36 Respected Elder Ming, the Ming Division always had a high status.

But 36 Respected Elder Ming’s gaze changed, and he instantly became frustrated. “Why are they here again?! Didn’t I say that I’m super busy? I also told them not to bother me if there’s no emergency!”

Yan Qing lowered his head and respectfully said, “Respected Elder, they have sent people over ever since you came out, but you were busy discussing important things with the other elders. Hence, they couldn’t meet you. They heard that you finally came back after traveling outside, so they specifically rushed over now.”

“Hmph! That bunch of scoundrels definitely don’t have any good intentions! It’s fine if I don’t see them! Go back and tell them that I’m in seclusion and that I don’t have time to see them recently!”

Yan Qing hesitated for a moment and said, “Respected Elder, the incident of you playing chess with His Highness has spread all around. They… all know about it.”

36 Respected Elder Ming was more frustrated than ever.

Seeing his reaction, Yan Qing knew that it was best not to say another word, but he still had to say some words.

In the end, he could only brave himself and say, “They still said that they’re going to wait for you the whole time here. You can just meet them whenever you’re free.”

36 Respected Elder Ming was so angry that he blew his beard and glared angrily as he went out in the end.

After he left for some time, Rong Xiu then straightened his body. He moved his wrist, and a crystal barrier appeared on the chessboard.

The sunlight shone in from the windows and reflected against the crystal-clear barrier—it was as dazzling as ever.

Then, it was the second one.

Afterward, it was the third.

…

Rong Xiu took out six crystal barriers in total and placed them in one row on the chessboard. Looking at the crystal barriers before him, he chuckled softly. “I didn’t expect it to be so fast… It was a waste for me to produce so many.”

He produced these crystal barriers according to varying standards and wanted to give them to her in order. But when he found out that she was heading to the Tianling Dynasty, he was worried and directly gave that one.

The thing he didn’t even expect was that she very quickly…

Yan Qing stood at the side and quickly glanced at his master when he saw the latter whipping his sleeves. This caused all those crystal barriers to become dust in unison silently.

A light breeze blew over, and all the dust instantly flew up! The dust then disappeared!

“Keep all of these,” said Rong Xiu lightly.

“Yes.” Yan Qing hurriedly went forward.

His movements were clean and decisive as he quickly put away the chessboard and exited.

When he reached the entrance, Yan Qing paused for a moment and asked, “Your Highness, the Ming Division people… Are you not willing to meet them?”

Rong Xiu smiled lazily, and his voice was relaxing. “They requested to see 36 Respected Elder Ming.”

After killing that division to warn the crowd, they all became very obedient. Even if they wanted to cause trouble, they had to judge their own abilities. Besides, with 36 Respected Elder Ming around, they couldn’t cause any trouble.

Yan Qing softly acknowledged those words. “Yes, I’ll dismiss myself first.”

Then, he respectfully exited.

After closing the door, the room fell silent again.

After a moment, Rong Xiu looked in front. “Come out.”

A gigantic white figure flashed across—it was Xue Xue!

Xue Xue walked to Rong Xiu and lay down in front of him as its pair of ice-blue eyes stared straight at the latter. It put on a rare obedient and pitiful appearance.

Rong Xiu glanced at it slightly. “You seem to think that you can use this move on anyone?”

Xue Xue’s expression stiffened, and the paw that it prepared to whine with froze in midair. It didn’t know how to continue.

Rong Xiu’s gaze turned slightly cold. “Dream on.”

Xue Xue was speechless.

Rong Xiu continued, “Oh, I forgot to tell you that she’s already found Little Nine.”

Xue Xue suddenly looked up and widened its eyes!
