Chapter 653: Wish

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The moment the rock smashed over, Xiao Juan circulated his internal energy and waved the No Return Saber.

The sharp blade slashed.

Sparks flew as the rock was forcefully cut in half.

Shen Xu, who was closest, was shocked by this scene. He did not expect Xiao Juan’s internal energy to be so deep.

Xiao Juan grabbed his collar and dragged him up from the ground.

“Let’s go.”

They ran with all their might and finally hid behind the earth wall before the second batch of stones smashed over.

Lo Pingsha had been waiting here with the military doctors for a long time.

They hurriedly took the injured persons over to treat them.

Shen Xu was not injured, but he was frightened.

He fell weakly to the ground, breathing hard.

In all his life, this was the first time he had run so fast.

Meng Xizhou also sat on the ground to rest.

He chuckled. “Prince, was it exciting just now?”

Shen Xu said weakly, “It’s enough to go through this kind of stimulation once. I won’t have such an experience again.”

Seeing that Xiao Juan was about to leave, he knew that Xiao Juan was probably going to look for Tang Guixi. He gritted his teeth, got up, and staggered after him.

The two of them met Tang Guixi at the foot of the sentry tower.

Seeing that the two of them were safe and sound, Tang Guixi heaved a long sigh of relief.

“Fortunately, you’re both fine. This way, I can explain it to Niaoniao and Prince Min.”

Shen Xu switched from being fearful. He raised his head and puffed out his chest, grinning widely.

“I told you that you could leave this to me!”

Tang Guixi said sincerely, “It’s all thanks to you this time. I’ll remember this favor. If you need any help in the future, just let me know. I’ll definitely do my best.”

Shen Xu’s heart skipped a beat. This might be a good opportunity to express his feelings.

Even if she didn’t want to, on account of how much he had helped just now, she should be able to give him a way out without embarrassing him too much.

But if she was willing, he would make a killing!

Shen Xu made up his mind and mustered his courage. “I do need your help.”

Tang Guixi hurriedly said, “Tell me.”

Shen Xu was nervous and his face was hot, but because his face was covered in dust and sweat, he looked dirty. It was impossible to tell that his face had turned red.

“It’s that… I’m not young anymore. Father has been urging me to get married quickly recently. I want… I want to…”

Tang Guixi said, “Do you want me to help you find a good girl to be your wife? Alright, I’ll get someone to find all the matchmakers in the city later. I must find you a wife that you’re satisfied with in all aspects!”

Shen Xu said anxiously, “That’s not what I meant!”

Tang Guixi was puzzled. “Then what do you want me to help with? You don’t want me to be your wife, do you?”

After saying that, she felt that this matter was too ridiculous and could not help but laugh.

She stopped laughing.

Because she realized that Shen Xu looked coy as if she had really hit the nail on the head.

Tang Guixi’s mouth widened in disbelief. “No, no way? Are you serious?”

Shen Xu took a deep breath and mustered his courage to nod and say that it was true.

But before he could say anything, he was interrupted.

“Master! Master!”

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Ling Hai rushing over.

Xiao Juan, who had been quiet just now, spoke at this moment. He asked, “Didn’t I tell you to stay in the city and take good care of Niaoniao? Why are you here?”

Ling Hai was sweating profusely and panting.

“Master, Madam is giving birth!” freeweb(n)ovel

Hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Xiao Juan’s reaction was the greatest. He changed his calm appearance from when he was facing thousands of troops and asked anxiously, “When did this happen?”

Ling Hai said that it had been four hours.

Xiao Juan said to Tang Guixi, “I’ll go back first.” Then, he strode towards the city gate.

Tang Guixi quickly stopped him. “Are you really planning to run back with your legs? At least ride a horse. Isn’t a four-legged horse faster than you?” Only then did Xiao Juan remember to ride a horse.

He had been in such a hurry just now that he had forgotten that he could still ride.

He and Ling Hai each rode a horse and rushed back as quickly as possible.

Tang Guixi still had to preside over the situation and could not return to the city for the time being.

She clasped her hands together and muttered softly.

“Amitabha. Bodhisattva, please bless us. We must let Niaoniao and her child be safe.”

Shen Xu looked at her uneasy expression and was about to comfort her when he heard her say right on the heels of that.

“Buddha, Bodhisattva Guanyin, Jade Emperor… In short, no matter who it is, I’m willing to exchange ten years of my life for the safety of Niaoniao and her child…

Shen Xu hurriedly interrupted her. ‘What nonsense are you talking about? Who curses themselves like that?!”

Then, he clasped his hands together and bowed to the heavens.

“God, don’t take it seriously. She was talking nonsense just now. It doesn’t count. Don’t take it seriously.”

Tang Guixi said, “As long as Niaoniao and her child are safe, so what if my lifespan is reduced by ten years?”

Shen Xu said angrily, “I can understand your concern for Yu Niaoniao, but there’s no need to pay the price with ten years of your life. If Yu Niaoniao finds out, she’ll definitely feel guilty. Why don’t you change it to something else? It’s best if it looks very important, but it’s actually not that important to you. It’s better to pay a price that won’t cause any harm to you.”

Tang Guixi felt that his words made sense.

She thought about it seriously for a moment, then her eyes lit up.

“I got it!”

Shen Xu was very curious. “What is it?”

Tang Guixi clasped her hands together and prayed seriously, “Bodhisattva,

God, Jade Emperor, I’m willing to exchange my marriage for the safety of Niaoniao and her child.”

Shen Xu was speechless.

Tang Guixi said, “As long as you can bless Niaoniao and her son’s safety, I’m willing to never touch men in my life, not break the lust taboo, and not marry anyone…”

Shen Xu could not stand it anymore and interrupted her again.

Tang Guixi frowned. “Why not? Isn’t this what you just said? You have to use something that looks very important but is actually not very important as the price of making a wish. Marriage seems very important, but it’s not that important to me. Even without it, I can live very well. It’s very suitable to use it as the price of making a wish!”

Shen Xu could not argue.

He really wanted to slap himself for talking nonsense just now!

Shen Xu was angry and anxious. After holding it in for a long time, he could not say anything.

“But if you don’t get married, who will take care of you when you’re old in the future?”

Tang Guixi had already planned this. “Although I’m not married, it doesn’t mean I don’t have children. Niaoniao’s child can acknowledge me as her godmother. There shouldn’t be a Droblem letting that child take care of me in the future, right?”

Shen Xu was speechless again.

He actually could not even provide the value of having children.. How sad!
