Chapter 58: Returning to Tianjian City in Beiyang, the Crown Prince Finally Comes Back!
Another few days passed quickly.
With Ran Yuwei’s cheerful personality, she soon got along well with Su Xueni and Zi Lianyou.
Naturally, she was also taken to the Lotus Realm to play and was amazed by the independent paradise world.
She eagerly threw herself into building their home. Unlike the two saintesses, who had never touched menial tasks, Ran Yuwei was truly skilled.
She often took care of various exotic beasts and built shelters for them, proving to be handy and adept at creating a home.
Lin Qi’an cut some wood and put it in the Lotus Realm. To his surprise, they actually built a small wooden house together!
“Your Highness, come quickly and see our creation!” Lin Qi’an was excitedly pulled into the Lotus Realm by Ran Yuwei.
Standing in front of the small wooden house, he pondered, “It’s nice, but it’s too small.”
“Ah, we can only manage this much.”
Lin Qi’an smiled: “When we return to Beiyang, I’ll find some top-notch carpenters to build beautiful big houses.”
Hearing this, Su Xueni’s eyes lit up, “Then I want this spot by the stream.” She claimed the best location near the creek.
“Ah! So fast, then I want this spot! I like this area, I can build a fence and raise some small animals, hehe.”
The girls started marking their territories.
Lin Qi’an thought: “Why don’t we build a quadrangle courtyard together? Isn’t it better to enjoy together than separately?”
Su Xueni’s pale, beautiful face blushed slightly, ‘Enjoying together… isn’t that a bit too open?’
……
Beiyang Border.
The border guards suddenly saw a ferocious beast galloping in the sky, immediately calling for attention.
“Wow! What is that pulling the carriage? It’s terrifying!”
“Wait, that looks like the Crown Prince’s carriage!”
“The Crown Prince is back? Oh my, it really is, the sword guards are there too.”
“So imposing!”
As soon as the Crown Prince returned to Beiyang, the people and cultivators were thrilled!
His recent achievements had already spread through every street and alley, becoming the talk of the town.
Even children would wield wooden swords, imitating and shouting:
“I am the Crown Prince of Beiyang, borrowing ten thousand swords, killing thousands! The woman I fancy is mine!”
Little girls also aspired to become the Crown Prince’s maid, setting lofty goals from a young age.
For instance, the great battle in Nanyue where the Crown Prince single-handedly subdued countless prodigies was well-known, everyone was familiar with it.
“Crown Prince!!”
As the carriage passed, countless adults and children ran out from their homes, waving and shouting at the sky.
“So magnificent…”
Sitting on Jiuying, Ran Yuwei looked down at the grand city and the countless citizens, feeling excited. This place was indeed the right choice.
Staying in the desert might have kept her ignorant all her life.
Lin Qi’an also came out, waving to the people below.
“The Crown Prince is truly beloved by the people.” Su Xueni remarked. As the most knowledgeable among the three girls, she often said things that pleased Lin Qi’an.
At this moment, Ran Yuwei would nod like a pecking chick. The Crown Prince is indeed a good person. At least, during their time together, he treated his maids very well.
He had no airs at all.
Sincerity was his killer move.
Lin Qi’an had strong purposes, but he never mistreated those who submitted to him. That’s why Ran Yuwei was loyal.
If Xiao Chen didn’t know what was good for him and still targeted the Crown Prince, she wouldn’t hold back!
Soon, the carriage flew to the sky city.
The sky city was home to many cultivators and powerful sword guards!
“Welcome back, Crown Prince!”
In front, rows of sword guards saluted in unison, making Ran Yuwei feel a bit embarrassed, as if the honor was for her.
“At ease.” Lin Qi’an nodded to the guards: “You have worked hard. Pass on my order for rewards!”
“Thank you, Crown Prince!”
After the sword guards left, Lin Qi’an said: “Aunt You, you’ve worked hard too. Go and rest.”
“Hmm.”
The carriage continued to the celestial palace, stopping on a vast lawn outside.
Jiuying immediately wilted, its nine heads drooping to the ground, not daring to lift them at all.
Not far ahead stood a bearded man in a wide-sleeved robe, who could probably kill it with just a glance!
As Lin Qi’an got off the carriage, a girl in a red dress ran up and threw herself into his arms.
“Brother, you’re finally back!”
“Hongyu, you haven’t grown taller in all this time!” Lin Qi’an rubbed his sister’s head, smiling.
“Hmph! You only know how to rub my head, of course, I can’t grow tall!” Hongyu pouted, her cheeks puffing like a goldfish, extremely cute.
“Alright, alright.” Lin Qi’an held his sister’s hand, walking forward.
Ahead were his father, Sword Emperor Lin Weixuan, and his mother, Mu Qingzhu.
“Greetings, Father and Mother!”
“Hahaha.” The Sword Emperor laughed heartily, patting his son’s shoulder: “Son, you’ve brought great honor to Beiyang this time, well done!”
“You always indulge him.” Mu Qingzhu, though indulgent in front of others, would still act strictly as a mother when meeting her son.
“You dared to take a woman fancied by a prince! Quick, bring her to let me see what kind of beauty could captivate my son so much.”
