Chapter 997: Chapter 770: I Should Have t You Before
Princess Yue Xi resided in the presidential suite above the observation platform, but to the girl, this luxurious room felt only like a cold material space.
As a descendant of the Wood God tribe, Yue Xi preferred her palace nestled in the Heavenly Realm Tree.
There, she could hear the birds say goodnight every ti she went to sleep amidst the floral scents.
Although it was nice here, it was not her cup of tea.
And yet that vast observation platform downstairs inexplicably gave Yue Xi a sense of familiarity.
It was 11 PM, and the serene breath of nature finally lifted the girl’s spirits a bit…
Daisendari must be asleep by now.
The girl, constantly shouldering the affairs of the nation, could finally escape that hawk-like gaze.
She hoped tomorrow’s auction would go smoothly.
Successfully complete the Wood God’s ceremony, fulfill her father’s last wishes, and strive to be a qualified Duchess and queen of the Wood God tribe, governing the Babon Duchy into greater beauty.
The burden on her shoulders was heavy…
The surna Galanold on her, could not be allowed to decline; those around her with malicious stares posed a significant threat, and the three counciln who once studied in the Gardot Empire didn’t wish for her to succeed to the throne.
As the first in line for succession of the Duchy, the Wood God ceremony was a necessary step to inheriting the throne.
In this auction, two extrely important sacrificial items would appear, so Yue Xi Jialanuo De ca to Yuni Star with a must-win determination.
With the loyal protection of the guard leader Daisendari, she realized the universe was filled with much darkness and danger.
When Yue Xi’s graceful silhouette appeared on the observation platform, the myriad enchanting flowers seed to co alive, greeting her.
Leaves swayed gently, rustling softly.
In that mont, Yue Xi’s aura rged naturally with the lush greenery of the vast observation platform, as if she belonged there.
If a more vivid depiction of Yue Xi’s arrival were needed, Mu Fan didn’t even sense the presence behind him.
He just felt the vegetation on the platform beco suddenly joyful, and the sea breeze caressing his face seed softer.
This made Mu Fan, rare to be close to nature, imrse further in the tranquil atmosphere.
The spacious observation platform had over a dozen sun umbrellas, which blocked their vision of each other; Yue Xi naturally didn’t know that there was a living person obscured by vines nearby.
Or perhaps the disparity in their abilities was so great that even with Mu Fan’s natural concealnt, Yue Xi could still perceive him.
Despite being less than twenty ters apart.
The future Duchess saw the seemingly empty observation platform, her eyes brightened. She chose a stone railing adorned with White Banana Flowers, stretched out her fair and translucent jade hand, and cupped a budding flower in her palm.
The tender bud lay in her palm, more lovely in the gentle light of the small night lamp.
Closing her eyes, Yue Xi inhaled the subtle fragrance of the unopened White Banana Flower, her lips naturally curving into a stunning smile.
Then she lightly touched her forehead against her palm, a faint sky-blue radiance flashed from her right pinky.
It was an intricately crafted greenish tal ring, its surface detailed with intertwined vines forming a simple pronged holder.
A sky-blue teardrop-shaped gem was embedded in it.
The ring exuded an ancient aura, its subdued green and blue appeared majestic.
The sky-blue light spread from the gem atop the ring, and as it passed through the girl’s hands, it beca hazy, enveloping the budding flower.
Then, in the next second…
The pale flower bud sitting in her palm began to unfurl slowly!
Rather than ti slowing, under the girl’s expectant gaze, it truly blood little by little under the faint moonlight into a White Banana flower as large as her hand.
The fragrance stored in its center no longer held back, releasing into the air.
Looking at the vibrant White Banana Flower in her palm, Yue Xi’s mood improved, and she giggled with narrowed eyes.
Her pointed ears quivered, revealed from beneath her pure golden hair as she laughed.
Feeling playful, Princess Yue Xi cradled another pink Yucca bud in her palm and gently blew with her rosy lips.
The Yucca, ant to bloom half a month later, suddenly blossod.
“So delighted~” The girl finally let out a cheerful exclamation.
This was Princess Yue Xi’s favorite pasti in her palace.
The Wood God’s glorious light shone on all vegetation and protected all its people.
Thus, the girl prepared to find another target.
But as she tossed her pure golden hair back, a surprised voice made her movent freeze in mid-air, her ears flushing with tension.
“Um… can you make flowers bloom?”
Mu Fan asked, astonished and shaken.
The two surprised gazes t, and the girl’s eyes showed a tinge of panic as she hastily hid her hands behind her back.
“How is there soone…”
The soft murmurs like mosquito whispers revealed that the future Duchess hadn’t expected anyone to be behind her, witnessing her blooming the flowers with the Nebula Water Ring.
It seed she had giggled aloud just now.
How awkward!
Mu Fan also felt exceedingly embarrassed, never expecting that if not for the sudden fragrance, he wouldn’t have realized soone stood behind him.
A beautiful girl with an elegant deanor possessed abilities he had never seen before.
“I’ve been here all along,” Mu Fan gestured to the side, wanting to ask when she appeared.
But seeing Yue Xi looking like a startled little sparrow, he had no choice but to abandon his questions.
“Ah, sorry, I didn’t know you were here.”
Princess Yue Xi, having cald down, remained graceful as she bowed and said.
Then as she raised her head, she finally got a clear view of the young man opposite her.
This…
Why did it feel a little familiar?
The girl’s clear eyes remained unblinking, directly looking at Mu Fan.
Mu Fan found the doubtful look in her bright eyes puzzling.
“Uh, it’s nothing, what is it?”
“I think I’ve seen you before.”
Yue Xi’s voice leaped like crisp musical notes, though it was in interstellar common language, the tone was exceptionally lodious.
Mu Fan lowered his head, thought for a bit, and confidently said, “I haven’t seen you.”
“But I believe I’ve seen you.”
The girl elegantly and politely spoke, seemingly discovering sothing new and interesting, her tone suddenly becoming a bit cheerful.
“I once saw soone with a similar deanor and outline as yours at Dingchuan Academy in the Federation,” the girl earnestly said.
This ti, it was Mu Fan’s turn to be surprised.
“I am indeed a student at Dingchuan Academy.”
Mu Fan’s response made the girl’s eyes widen, her face brightening with joy, “Then it’s indeed you! I saw you that day walking alone with a military pack on the Dingchuan Academy’s tarmac, your deanor was unique.”
This answer confird for Mu Fan that he had indeed encountered her, though he hadn’t retained an impression.
Just, the tarmac?…
