Xingge still practiced swords with Xinyi in Xiyunpo every day, and I, every day, followed Horma to Iris Canyon, far away from the emperor, to train, this is the most beautiful place of the Thousand Spirit Clan, it does not belong to any country.

In order to make it easier for us to travel back and forth, Holma would conjure up a spatial portal to Iris Canyon under the snow cherry tree in my dormitory every day, and Holma said that only those who have cultivated to the level of the super-Holy Spirit can open the portal.

In front of everyone, I am still that frail child, no one knows the origin of the heart-shaped mark on my chest, but only I know that the mark hides endless spiritual power, which can always help me break through my cultivation again and again.

Half a year later, my cultivation reached the second-level Holy Spirit and passed the first-level sword god assessment, that day, Grandpa was very happy, "When you cultivate to the fifth-level Holy Spirit, I will give you all my cultivation, so that you can directly break through the Super Holy Spirit." Grandpa said, "At that time, you will be the youngest Super Holy Spirit Sword God in the entire Thousand Spirit Clan. ”

"No, grandpa, how can I ask for your cultivation." Hearing my grandfather's words, I hurriedly refused.

"Little prince, the further you cultivate, the more difficult it is to improve, the king is worried about your heart's ability to endure." Holma said on the side.

"If Grandpa's cultivation is given to me, what will happen to him?"

"He will become an ordinary person without cultivation."

"Grandpa is the backbone of the Thousand Spirits Clan, how can I do it without cultivation, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I won't agree."

Grandpa looked at me for a long time, he wanted to say something, but he didn't open his mouth after all, at that time, I didn't know why my grandfather was in a hurry to give me cultivation.

That night, Xingge returned from injury, and he injured his wrist due to improper operation while practicing the sword.

"What's going on?" I ran to Xingge and grabbed his hand, the sword wound was so deep that Xingge's hand was almost broken!

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's too demanding of Prince Xingge." Xin Yi said with a face full of self-reproach; "Prince Xingge's cultivation didn't keep up, so I forced him to learn more complex swordsmanship, and as a result, he didn't control the sword in his hand."

I was saddened to see Singgrid's pain, and although Holma quickly bandaged his wounds, Singge couldn't hold a sword for at least a while.

On the first night of Xingge's recuperation in the dormitory, we sat down under the snow cherry tree and looked up at the starry sky, "Xingge, do you really want to be the king of the emperor?" I asked suddenly.

"As I said, I'm trying to learn swordsmanship just to protect you, not because I'm the crown prince. Ever since the last time I saw you injured in the Sea of Mist, I had made up my mind to improve my cultivation. ”

"Xingge, actually..."I wanted to tell Xingge that my cultivation was already able to protect myself, but thinking of Homer, I swallowed the words back.

"Xingcan, sometimes I don't know what my father thinks, my eldest brother is far above me in terms of cultivation and swordsmanship, but my father chose me to be the crown prince of the emperor, and for more than a year, my eldest brother has hardly said a word to me."

"If you don't want to, let's go and tell my father and ask him to give the crown prince to the eldest brother."

"No, no, my father won't agree."

"But you're already injured, and the people around you are forcing you to improve your cultivation every day, even the letter is no exception."

"My father has announced in public that I am the crown prince of the emperor, so I naturally hope that I can have a stronger cultivation to take on this responsibility, don't worry, I will work hard and never let my father down."

"But Xinge... I'm going to feel sorry for you like this. ”

Xingge just smiled at me, and he smiled brightly, but I knew it wasn't from the heart.

A year later, my cultivation continued to break through the fifth-level Holy Spirit, but Xingge was only promoted to the fourth-level child spirit, and since the last wrist injury, Xingge's swordsmanship has been seriously affected.

His personality became more and more irritable, and he always lost his temper at the palace guards and maids for no reason, until one day, he stabbed one of the guards with a sword and seriously wounded them.

When my father heard the news, he ordered Xingge to be reprimanded with a cane and imprisoned for 30 days, and I couldn't do anything as I watched Xingge be taken away.

That night, I questioned Shin Yi about why Xingge suddenly became like this, and Xin Yi hesitated for a long time to tell me that Holma had personally promised Xingge that as long as he passed the Sword Master's assessment and healed my heart, for this sentence, Xingge forced himself to improve his swordsmanship as if he was crazy despite his hand injury.

That day, I went to Holma's dormitory in a rage, and it happened that my father and Brother Arrow were there, so I didn't care about the others and went straight to Holma, "Why did you lie to Xingge that you could heal my heart!" I shouted.

Holma looked at me disappreciatively: "What's the matter with the little prince, running in so recklessly!" ”

"You know that he has been practicing his sword very hard, why do you lie to him!"

"I just want to give him a little bit of motivation, what's the problem? If you can't stand this little setback, how can you be qualified to be the king of the emperor in the future! ”

"He didn't want to do it from the beginning, you had to make him the crown prince."

"How do you know he's unwilling? Did he tell you personally? Holma asked rhetorically.

"Can't you all see that he's changed?"

"Xingcan, that's enough! Don't plead for Xingge anymore! My father got up and scolded me, "You rushed in so headlessly, why don't you apologize to Prince Holma soon!" ”

"Why should I apologize, it was Holma who deceived Xingge in the first place!" I insisted.

"It's so ignorant, do you want to be locked up like Xingge? Come on, take the little prince out! ”

Two sturdy guards stepped forward to take me away after receiving my father's order, "Wait, I'm not done yet!" I walked sideways through the two of them.

"What else do you want to say?"

"Father, I think I'm more suitable to be the crown prince of the emperor than Xingge!"

The father was stunned for a moment, and then said with a disdainful expression: "Xingcan, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

I chuckled and whispered, "I know better than ever what I'm talking about!" I'm going to fight a duel with the stars, and if I win, how about giving me the position of the crown prince? ”

As soon as my words fell, Holma immediately jumped up from her seat, "Little Prince, don't you just want to intercede for Xingge?" I'll let your father let him go now! The crown prince of the emperor is only the most suitable for Xingge, so you don't have to be delusional. ”

I lowered my head, a smile on the corner of my mouth, I deliberately said the word duel, Holma didn't want me to expose my cultivation, so I could only compromise my request. After that, I pretended to be righteous and pushed Holma to sit on the chair, "I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness, forgive me for being reckless just now, but I also want to remind you that no matter how high your status is in the Thousand Spirit Clan, since you have come to the Emperor to be my chief of guard, you should have a minimum of respect for me, although I am weak, but I don't like others to be rude to me!" For example, the tone of your speech to me just now shouldn't be the attitude that a captain of the guard should have towards his master! ”

Holma smiled awkwardly, then bent slightly towards me and said, "It was all my fault just now, be sure to pay attention next time!" ”

I waved my hand and said, "I accept your apology, I'll leave if there's nothing to do, and you and my father will continue to talk." After saying that, I deliberately glanced at my father beside me, his expression was very complicated, even he didn't dare to speak so presumptuously in front of Holma.

Singge was soon released, and Holma had the wounded guards sent to his dormitory for healing.

When he returned, Xingge was sullen, and he locked himself in the dormitory and did not allow anyone to enter.

It was late at night, and I sat down outside the door of the Xingge dormitory, I didn't want to disturb him, I just wanted to be by his side quietly, even if there was only one door between us.
