Jiuluo Nanxing looked at Li Wanji deeply, his eyes were as bright as the stars, but also carried a bit of helpless doting.

He gently tidied her clothes, his voice full of tenderness: "You just need to know that no matter when and where, I will stand by you, protect you, and support you."

Li Wanji was still a little dazed. She looked at Jiuluo Nanxing with her watery eyes. She couldn't help but feel distressed for him.

"Nanxing, the person who deserves your love the most in this world is actually yourself. You only have one life, so you should think more about yourself."

Li Wanji recalled that she had used "Zhuang Sheng's Dream" to explore Jiuluo Nanxing's memory and knew that he was such a passionate and resolute person.

He would destroy his own appearance just to win his mother's favor, but it wasn't his fault!

He is also willing to sacrifice his life to win her love. His love is too heavy for people to bear.

Jiuluo Nanxing was slightly stunned when he heard this. After thinking for a moment, he immediately understood what Li Wanji meant.

"I am content to have met you. As for the rest, I will just let it go."

"Wan Ji, don't worry. From now on I won't do anything to hurt myself. I have to keep my life because there are more important things waiting for me to do."

He wants to go to the underworld to take back the position of Lord of the Underworld and save his people in the flower world from the suffering of war.

Also in order to become a more powerful existence in the Great Wilderness World, only in this way can he protect her and give her the life she wants.

Yes, loving someone requires deep strength and capital.

Only in this way can I ensure that when she needs it, I can stand up and protect her from the wind and rain and provide her with a sky to stand up for her.

Although Jiuluo Nanxing regretted that Li Wanji did not make a choice, he was also glad. After all, now was not his best time and he still needed to become stronger.

He believed that one day, he would stand in front of her in the best possible manner, let her see his excellence, and make her willing to spend her life with him.

"Nanxing, I'm really happy that you think this way." A hint of relief flashed in Li Wanji's eyes.

"My two distinguished guests, are you ready? My prince has asked you to come over for dinner!" Just as the two were talking, the voice of a maid was heard outside, interrupting their conversation.

"We'll be there right away, thank you." Jiuluo Nanxing responded gently.

Led by the maid, several people came to the banquet room where Su Ruotang was entertaining them.

As soon as she stepped in, Li Wanji felt a strong spiritual energy coming towards her.

She looked around and saw that the entire banquet room was decorated elegantly and exquisitely, with all kinds of rare corals, shells, pearls, etc. from the seabed decorated in it, which was colorful and magnificent.

The table in the center was filled with all kinds of rare spiritual meats, spiritual fruits, and fine wines, the aroma was overwhelming and mouth-watering.

At the main seat, Su Ruotang and others had been waiting for a long time. His eyes swept over Jiuluo Nanxing and Li Wanji, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Please take a seat, both of you." Su Ruotang gestured with her hand, her voice gentle and pleasant.

Jiuluo Nanxing and Li Wanji took their seats as instructed. As soon as they sat down, several maids came forward to pour wine and serve them food.

At this time, at the banquet table, Bai Muyun and Jiuluo Nanxing sat on the left and right sides of Su Ruotang respectively, while Li Wanji, Qingxuan and others sat opposite them.

"How is Miss Wanji's injury?" Su Ruotang raised his wine glass and asked gently.

Li Wanji raised her glass and returned the toast, saying softly, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am fine now."

"That's good." Su Ruotang nodded and turned his gaze to Jiuluo Nanxing and Bai Muyun.

"Nanxing, Xiaobai is my cousin. Today, you two have become acquainted with each other. I hope that we can make peace in the future and write off all grudges!"

"Xiaobai, Nanxing is my best friend whom I met when I was practicing on Yunmiao Island. Although there are some misunderstandings between you, I hope you can put aside your differences and become true friends."

Jiuluo Nanxing and Bai Muyun looked at each other and saw recognition in each other's eyes.

"Brother Jiuluo, I was impulsive in what happened today. I hope you can forgive me." Bai Muyun raised his glass and spoke sincerely.

Jiuluo Nanxing smiled and raised his glass in response: "Mr. Bai, you are too kind. Actually, I was also wrong. We will be friends from now on."

The two clinked glasses and drank, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.

"Your Highness, you are the dragon and Muyun is the phoenix. How can you be cousins?" Li Wanji looked at Su Ruotang and Bai Muyun and asked curiously.

"Miss Wan Ji, you don't know that my mother is Xiaobai's aunt. She is Princess Yunxuan of the Phoenix clan, my father's wife, and also the Dragon Queen of the Dragon clan." Su Ruotang explained gently.

"So that's how it is." Li Wanji suddenly realized and couldn't help but sigh at the deep connection between the dragon and phoenix clans.

"Xiaobai, you are really amazing. I haven't even found a wife yet, but you've become the father of five children!" Su Ruotang teased Bai Muyun with a smile, causing everyone to laugh.

"Cousin, you are joking. You are the pride of the dragon clan. You can have any kind of woman you want. It's just that the time has not come yet." Bai Muyun responded modestly.

"Hmph, you just know how to talk." Su Ruotang glared at him in feigned anger, but could not hide the smile in her eyes.

When Bai Muyun mentioned the child, his eyebrows moved slightly. With a clear smile on his lips, his eyes lingered on Li Wanji for a long time.

Compared to Jiuluo Nanxing, he felt that he was already a winner in life.

At least in this matter, he was one step ahead of Jiuluo Nanxing.

Although he also admired Jiuluo Nanxing, there was always a natural hostility between men.

This hostility becomes even stronger when facing the woman he loves.

Fortunately, both of them are gentlemen. They have just shaken hands and made peace in public, so they will not do anything extreme at this moment.

Moreover, they all knew that Li Wanji's feelings were the most important.

If she didn't love either of them, then their fight would be meaningless.

Thinking of this, the two of them couldn't help but turn their eyes to Li Wanji, trying to see some clues from her expression.

However, Li Wanji seemed unaware of the undercurrent between them. She just sat there quietly, smiling and enjoying the food on the table.

"However, I, your elder brother, would like to congratulate you here as well! Not only did you complete the Phoenix Emperor's request, but this ambitious Fire Phoenix is ​​actually your biological son. How could anyone in the world be so blessed as you?"

Su Ruotang looked at the little fire phoenix in his arms, his eyes full of envy.

"Hehehe..." The little fire phoenix felt Su Ruotang's gaze and let out a series of crisp laughter, stretching out its little hands to grab the long hair hanging in front of his chest.

Su Ruotang couldn't help but laugh when he saw this. He gently pushed his long hair aside, then reached out to tease the little fire phoenix.

The little fire phoenix was amused by him and laughed continuously. Its big black eyes curved into crescents. It was so adorable that people couldn't help but want to kiss it.

"Cousin, if you like children, why don't you have one yourself?" Bai Muyun teased.

"It's easy to say. Do you think anyone can give birth to such a cute child?" Su Ruotang rolled her eyes at Bai Muyun and said unhappily.

"Haha, what you said is right, cousin." Bai Muyun shook his head and laughed, and said no more.

Afterwards, Su Ruotang took out a crystal clear dragon-shaped jade pendant from his arms and hung it around the little fire phoenix's neck.

"Little guy, this is a gift from your uncle. Please keep it well!" Su Ruotang said with a gentle smile.

The little fire phoenix touched the jade pendant on his neck curiously, then looked up at Bai Muyun, as if asking if he could accept it.

Bai Muyun smiled and nodded. Little Fire Phoenix then happily hugged the jade pendant and said sweetly to Su Ruotang: "Thank you, uncle!"
