"Yes, miss." Susu nodded and turned to Bai Yuhao, "Big Brother Bai, come with me."
Bai Yuhao turned around and looked at Liu Yunxuan before following Susu.
Su Su brought Bai Yuhao into the yard and chose the quietest room. She cleaned up Bai Yuhao's room and let Bai Yuhao rest first. Afterwards, she ordered someone to prepare a bath barrel and hot water to send to Bai Yuhao's room.
"Susu is really meticulous. It seems like it's been a long time since I've had a hot bath." Bai Yuhao looked at the steaming white water with petals floating inside. The corner of his mouth hooked up as he took off all his clothes and soaked into the tub. He rested his head on the edge of the tub and suddenly, a wave of comfort came over his body, causing him to close his eyes and fall asleep.
After that, Bai Yuhao had a nightmare. In the dream, a beautiful face with hidden bitterness flashed by as Bai Yuhao stared at him with hatred. Bai Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: "Xueyan!"
At the same time, the Holy Dragon Kingdom.
Dragon Emperor, who was discussing the country's affairs with the other ministers, saw a captain hurriedly come in. He kneeled on one knee and cupped his hands: "Reporting to Dragon Emperor, Mistress is back!"
"Xueyan is back?" Dragon Emperor's face immediately lit up when he heard that.
All the ministers immediately whispered to each other as they discussed amongst themselves.
Since Loong Xueyan had suddenly gone to the Dragon Clan Sacred Grounds to cultivate in seclusion a year ago, there had been almost no news of her at all during this year.
Loong Ao, who was standing in front of the officials, was beaming with joy because he had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Not long after, a slim and graceful figure slowly stepped into the Temple of Excursion. That change in expression, that slight change in expression, that elegant and refined temperament, and that absolutely beautiful appearance, all of them were captivated, and were unable to extricate themselves.
Seeing this delicate figure of a group of ministers, even Loong Ao, could not help but become absent-minded.
This delicate figure was none other than Loong Xueyan!
This year, Loong Xueyan was less childish and more mature than before.
"Witch of Holy Dragon Kingdom pays his respect to Dragon Emperor!" Under the gazes of everyone present, Loong Xueyan walked to the front of the hall and bowed as she spoke with an indifferent expression.
"There's no need to be so polite. It's good that you can come back." Dragon Emperor felt somewhat guilty regarding what had happened that year. After all, the culprit was his own son, so he immediately asked in concern: "Have you been doing well in the Dragon Clan Sacred Grounds this past year?"
"For the past year, I have abandoned all distracting thoughts in the Dragon Clan Sacred Grounds and focused on closed door cultivation. Loong Xueyan replied calmly. Her every move was like a fairy who didn't care about anything. She was like a calm lake, unable to stir up any ripples.
"Mistress, leaving for a year really makes people worry!" Loong Ao sighed.
"I dare not be concerned about the First Prince!" Loong Xueyan replied with an ice-cold tone.
Loong Ao was embarrassed to see Loong Xueyan's attitude, but he still said with a smile, "We'll meet again more often in the future!"
"It's good that you're back. The annual ceremony is about to arrive. I was worried that no one would be able to take charge of the ceremony!" In the entire Holy Dragon Kingdom, only Loong Xueyan, as Witch, had the ability to converse with the Dragon Clan Envoys. Therefore, if Loong Xueyan wasn't present during the ceremony, it would inevitably be somewhat inconvenient.
"Actually, I came back this time to tell Dragon Emperor something." Loong Xueyan said with a light glint in her eyes.
"What is it?" Dragon Emperor asked.
"Tell this to Dragon Emperor alone." Loong Xueyan gestured.
Hearing that, Dragon Emperor knew it must be something important, so he immediately stood up and said: "You may all leave. Xueyan, come with me! " Then, he turned around and left through the side door of Temple of Excursion.
Loong Xueyan followed closely behind.
When Loong Ao saw this, he could not help but focus his gaze and revealed a few guesses.
"Looks like it's something big, right?" At this time, Big High Priest walked up to Loong Ao and said.
"I want to know what it is." Loong Ao fixed his gaze on High Priest.
"Dragon Emperor and I will spy on him later." Big High Priest immediately nodded.
On the other side, Dragon Emperor and Loong Xueyan walked into the Violet Firmament Hall. They sent out the maids, leaving only the two of them in the hall.
After sitting down, Dragon Emperor said to Loong Xueyan, "What is it that you must say alone?"
"One month ago, when I observed the night sky, I predicted that there would be a great calamity at the Holy Dragon Kingdom." Loong Xueyan said with a serious expression.
"What great tribulation?" Hearing that, Dragon Emperor's expression immediately became serious, because Loong Xueyan's talent was exceptional and she had the special powers passed down from her Dragon Clan, and using the Star Phenomenon Mysterious Technique to calculate was one of her abilities. Most importantly, her calculations had never gone wrong.
"What a disaster." Loong Xueyan spat out these words.
"It's that serious, what kind of great calamity is that?" Dragon Emperor was surprised.
"I can only predict this. Therefore, Dragon Emperor must pay more attention! " Loong Xueyan reminded him.
"If it's just this, then you should be able to say it in front of all the ministers. Do you have something else to tell me?" Dragon Emperor's eyes flashed with a hint of shrewdness as he asked.
Loong Xueyan's delicate body trembled slightly. In the end, after hesitating for a moment, she finally opened her mouth and asked, "Loong Xuan, he …"
Dragon Emperor was shocked. He never expected Loong Xueyan to mention Loong Xuan. Logically speaking, the harm Loong Xuan did to Loong Xueyan was too hard to say. Therefore, Loong Xueyan shouldn't be willing to talk about Loong Xuan.
"I know you can't forgive him, but in any case, he is my son, and he has been punished, so let him go through with the past." Dragon Emperor sighed, thinking that Loong Xueyan still cared about what happened that year.
"I have not forgiven him, but I am a bit disappointed. If he had come to explain himself to me after that incident had happened, I would not have blamed him. After all, he is still young and ignorant. "Moreover …" Loong Xueyan shook her head, appearing abnormally calm, but soon after, she revealed a look of disappointment as she said: "But, he didn't come to find me, and instead chose to flee, accepting the punishment and leaving the Holy Dragon Kingdom …"
"Wait, Xueyan, you said Loong Xuan didn't come looking for you? Then what happened to the war at Witch's place back then? " When Dragon Emperor heard this, he felt that something was wrong. He thought that Loong Xueyan knew that Loong Xuan had once fought against Witch for her. After all, it was impossible for her not to know that Loong Xuan had caused such a ruckus.
