Chapter 979: Chapter 861 Seems to Be Different Somewhere

Princess Lianchun looked anxiously at Ji Youyuan.

Seeing her anxious eyes, Ji Youyuan quickly explained.

"I was only worried about the dagger in your hand."

Princess Lianchun hurriedly put the dagger back in its place.

And only then did she pick up Xiaosuisui.

"You’re such a little cutie. I was so angry I lost my head for a moment. As soon as I regained my memory, I wanted to tear Xun Heng into pieces. I forgot that he can’t get out and I can’t get in!"

Princess Lianchun was annoyed at herself for being blinded by hatred, becoming a fool for a moment!

She came in wielding a dagger, looking to fight for her life!

"Your Majesty, adopted father and elder sister, don’t be upset. You can’t go in to kill him, but we can let the little bug inside him bite him to death!"

As soon as Xiaosuisui said this, Xun Heng inside immediately started howling.

Hearing Xun Heng’s miserable cries, Princess Lianchun’s body instinctively trembled.

Xiaosuisui sensed her emotions and rested her little head on her shoulder, reaching out to pat her back.

Almost instantly, Princess Lianchun’s body stiffened, and then she walked briskly out of the tunnel carrying Xiaosuisui.

"Once we’ve passed through the tunnel, we can’t hear any sounds from here."

Xiaosuisui said in a child’s tender voice, "Okay!"

Ji Youyuan also hurriedly followed them out. As soon as they exited the final level of the Nine-Tiered Pagoda and reached the first level, the entrance below automatically disappeared. This was a Blinding Technique, invisible to ordinary mortals.

Ji Youyuan raised his hand, making several hand seals in succession, directly covering the entrance, clapped his hands, and said, "There, that’s better. Even if someone’s cultivation is profound, as long as it’s not higher than mine, they won’t be able to enter even if they discover this seal!"

Hearing this, Xiaosuisui blinked and scratched the back of her head, saying,

"Wasn’t this passage supposed to be sealed by Ancestor Zhou?

Ancestor Zhou’s cultivation would definitely be higher than Uncle’s, but we still managed to get in, didn’t we?"

Xiaosuisui’s line of thought left Ji Youyuan speechless.

Princess Lianchun patted her little head to explain.

"Originally, no one could enter here, but later, Xun Heng’s brother, Xunyang, left a trace of Divine Sense outside. He maneuvered and found a way to open a breach. This breach remained undiscovered for years, which is why Yu Wang and I could come and go freely.

Now Ji..."

At the mention of Ji Youyuan’s name, Princess Lianchun suddenly remembered something. After a brief pause, she looked Ji Youyuan up and down, asking, "Are you the eldest son of War God General Ji, Ji Youyuan?"

Ji Youyuan nodded, remembering the rules and etiquette he learned in the capital as a child.

Even though he became a Grand Master in Jianghu, he still followed the rules and etiquette of nobles and officials!

"Yes! Greetings, Princess!"

"No need for ceremony. Over the years, I have wandered outside, reduced to a puppet, and have shamed the ancestors of the Great Han, feeling unworthy of being a princess of the nation."

Princess Lianchun turned and walked toward the outside of the Nine-Tiered Pagoda, avoiding Ji Youyuan’s bow. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Ji Youyuan quickly caught up and quickly said, "But you are the Great Han’s Princess, His Majesty’s elder sister. Princess, please return with us!"

Ji Youyuan followed Princess Lianchun out in a hurry and said.

Princess Lianchun’s footsteps paused, and she stopped to look at him.

"I remember back then when I was captured by the people of Nanjiang and had a Gu Insect placed in me, General Ji himself seemed to have pursued me personally with his own soldiers, and later he fell off a cliff saving me, now he..."

Princess Lianchun was still very worried. She didn’t know how deep that cliff was, but in her memory during these years as a puppet, there was news of the Emperor of Da Han passing away and Emperor Yuansheng ascending the throne, news of the Great Wizard of Nanjiang and King Yu of Xiling joining forces.

There was also news of a sudden appearance of a civilian princess in Great Han.

But there was no news about General Ji.

Hearing Princess Lianchun asking about his father’s whereabouts, Ji Youyuan felt a bit troubled. In this realm, his father was considered dead, and even a memorial tomb was erected for him.

But in another realm, he was very much alive.

How should he explain this to the princess?

Just as Ji Youyuan was feeling troubled, Xiaosuisui’s tender voice sounded.

"Grandfather is on Ling Tian Continent; he returned through the Nine-Tiered Pagoda!"

"Hmm?"

Princess Lianchun looked at Xiaosuisui in confusion, casting a puzzled glance at her.
