After a long while, the azure snake crawled into the wooden hut from outside.

“It seemed that Her Highness wants to leave Liu Yun Kingdom. Why don’t you stop her?” The azure snake asked after hesitating for a while.

“There is no need. I won’t stop her from doing the things that she wants to do. If she needs a hand, she will let me know.” Nan Xian’s cold eyes were filled with a gentle smile.

“What if Her Highness refuses to do so?” the azure snake asked, hesitantly.

“Then she must have her reason.”

Nan Xian trusted and respected Feng Ruqing. Hence, he would never ask her for too many things. He knew that Feng Ruqing would tell him if she truly wanted to do so.

“However, it seems that Qing’er does not fully rely on me. Go and get everything ready. We are leaving soon.” Nan Xian smiled, faintly.

“Master, where are we going? Are we going to Tian Shen Manor?” The azure snake was slightly surprised.

“We are going after Qing’er.

“Wait, we will set off when she is a thousand meters away. Otherwise, she will notice that someone is stalking her.” Nan Xian paused for a while.

‘Master, what are you doing? If you cannot bear to part with her, why don’t you stop her from leaving?’ The azure snake was rendered speechless.

“Master… are you sure? Are we really going after Her Highness? I thought you said that you respect and trust her?” the azure snake said hesitantly.

“Hmm. That’s why I didn’t stop her. However, it doesn’t mean that I am fine with her to go alone,” Nan Xian said, calmly.

“I think the people around Her Highness might be in danger instead,” the azure snake said, fearfully.

Nan Xian chilly gaze was fixed on the azure snake. Stunned, the azure snake shook violently as it said, hastily, “The people out there are too mean. Her Highness is such a weak lady. How could she handle them? We must go after her. We should secretly protect her.”

“Hmm.” Nan Xian’s face softened.

“However, yesterday was such a good chance. Why didn’t you make good use of it?” The azure snake blinked.

“Do I look… handsome?” Nan Xian responded only after a long while.

Dumbstruck by Nan Xian’s words, the azure snake was lost in wonder.

‘Since when has Master become a narcissist?’ Moreover, the azure snake was no human. How could it tell whether Nan Xian looked good?

“Many ladies have fallen for you and would pounce on you as soon as they see you… Hence, you must be very handsome.” The azure snake answered after some time.

“If I no longer have this handsome face, Qing’er… would she still want to sleep with me?”

The azure snake’s eyes widened in shock.

‘Master has always been a cold and aloof person… since when did he start to worry about personal gain or loss? He is actually worried that Her Highness wanted to sleep with him because of his handsome face?’

“Master, is that the reason why you didn’t grab the chance yesterday?”

“No. The things that I had told her were true. I must marry her before having children with her. I don’t want anyone to humiliate her.”

“Then what you truly mean is…”

“Hmm. I want to get everything ready. If she wants to sleep with me because of my physical appearance, when I no longer have my stunning face, I will disfigure whoever approaches her. In that way, I will still be the most stunning man.”

The azure snake slithered backward. It felt that ever since Nan Xian had met Feng Ruqing, he was getting more and more terrifying.

What if he disfigured the azure snake? It had not found a female snake that it loved yet…
