My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!

Ali's sinister gaze swept Xiao Mi a glance.

He was also very displeased with Xiao Mi's attitude and tone of voice. The feeling that everyone except for Qiao Mu was trash in her, Xiao Mi's, eyes, made one indignant.

While giving a shrug, Xiao Mi retracted her gaze in loathing. Then, she sat down by the side with Gongsun Lie, shutting her eyes to continue cultivating.

These two days, the mystic energy inside the entire Mystic Beast Forest secret realm had thinned out quite a lot. However, they could instinctively sense that the bursts of energy undulations coming from the cottage were currently replenishing the mystic energy deficit in an unending stream.

An item that could be this powerful would certainly be… the Xuanji Core.

On the other end, Qiao Mu was lifted the entire way by the giant ape's arm. She could only watch speechlessly as it bounded through the verdant grove and swiftly landed before a cottage.

This cottage had red walls and a black roof. A red bronze bell hung from the doorway, and she could hear it ringing crisply from far away.

After lowering its arm to set her down, the giant ape gently prodded Qiao Mu's shoulder.

Turning around to glance at it, Qiao Mu said with a nod, "I can go in, but next time, stop lifting me up when taking me to places!"

It wasn't like she was still a child. What the heck was up with lifting her here and there?

She had to save her face…

The guy simply cracked a smile at her. After staying in the secret realm for so many years, this large fellow had long possessed intelligence, so it naturally understood her words.

Seeing it smiling, our dear Qiao Mu treated this as if it had consented. She promptly nodded back before sauntering toward the cottage with her two small paws behind her back.

Advancing a level within ten days would give you a chance to pay a visit to Senior Xuanji.

No matter what, this was an opportunity that was hard to come by, so Qiao Mu was looking forward to it.

What kind of good items would this Senior Xuanji gift her?

After all, she was the first person to successfully advance a level in the secret realm!

If Senior Xuanji didn't prepare a presentable gift, that wouldn't do.

Creak! She pushed open the door to the cottage.

When she finally looked inside, she saw that everything was very organized, without a speck of dust. Although it looked as if it hadn't been lived in for a very long time, the items were all organized properly. It was probably the work of that intelligent giant ape.

She didn't know either how many years the ape had spent inside the secret realm, but it was probably very lonely, only being able to see people once every ten years.

"Oh, my young child, you have finally come!" A joyful voice suddenly entered her ears.

Qiao Mu abruptly turned around and swept a gaze through the cottage. However, she didn't see anyone else inside.

"Stop looking! I'm above your head!"

After looking up abruptly, she saw a pair of small feet wearing pink embroidered shoes swaying from the roof beam.

Qiao Mu: "…"

"Do you feel that this old one is different from the senior master that you had imagined? Ahahaha, then that's right!" Xuanji laughed heartily. "This senior detests the world's strict rules and conventions the most. Doing whatever one pleases is this senior's motto!"

Qiao Mu suddenly interrupted her words. "You should get to the point! If you do not hurry up, your apparition will completely dissipate."

At her reminder, Xuanji was silent for a moment before suddenly roaring in laughter again. "Good, very good! My 200-year-long wait was not in vain! Little fellow, you sure enough are an interesting child."
