35. Chapter 35: Curiosity

"Du Long (Qinglian) has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Du Long never thought that he hadn't seen Princess Huofeng for a year, but today he actually met him so coincidentally, he was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward with Xia Qinglian to salute.

staring at Du Long and Xia Qinglian faintly, in my impression, Xia Qinglian, who has always been melancholy, has a happy and confident smile on her face, how can she be so sad and weak when she first saw her in Zuixianglou!

I haven't seen you for a year, Du Long has grown a lot taller, and he has grown a lot taller this year, but he still can't compare with this stinky boy!

Not only has he grown taller, but Du Long, who has a faint smile on his face, exudes a heavy atmosphere, his words and deeds give people a sense of calm and confidence, and his eyes are becoming deeper and deeper, with a kind of attractive charm.

Du Caini slammed her willow waist with her elbow, and Princess Huofeng woke up in shock, and her face unconsciously flushed with a blush and said softly: "Du Long, Qinglian......! I didn't expect to run into you here!"

Princess Huofeng's performance made Du Caini on the side roll her eyes on the spot, this Nizi always shouted on weekdays to see how Du Long was going to cramp and tear apart this ungrateful guy, and this time I will see, and such an inconspicuous sentence actually came out.

"It's a coincidence! We haven't seen each other for nearly a year, and Her Royal Highness seems to have grown a lot taller, more beautiful, and more feminine, hehe!" Du Long scratched his head with a dry smile and praised, his experience before rebirth told him that he should not be stingy with praise for Princess Huofeng!

"Stinky boy! What a coincidence?!The princess of the fire phoenix has come to the Du Mansion to look for you many times, but you kid has never seen anyone!Hmph!" Du Caini was obviously complaining about the princess of the fire phoenix, and she really couldn't stand it.

When her heart was revealed, Princess Huofeng blushed on the spot, glanced at Du Caini coquettishly, and said coquettishly: "Sister Caini ......"

"Alas, Xiaofeng, sister, I really can't stand it, hum! This heartless stinky boy, I really want to beat him up to relieve my hatred!" Du Caini said with some indignation.

"Is there anything that Princess Huofeng is looking for Du Long?!" Seeing that they muttered and didn't understand what they were talking about, Du Long asked with some confusion, for some reason, this time he felt that Princess Huofeng had become different from usual, what was the difference, he really didn't understand.

"Actually, it's nothing!" Princess Huofeng replied with a somewhat evasive gaze: "It's just boring, I just want to find you to sit with Miss Qinglian!"

Xia Qinglian quietly observed for a long time, and when she saw Princess Huofeng mention herself, she stepped forward with a grateful face and said: "Qinglian has always wanted to thank Princess Huofeng for saving her life in person!

"Miss Qinglian is polite, I just helped to say a few words about your matter, and it was this stinky little ...... who really saved you Child...... Du Long, thank you, you can thank him!" Princess Huofeng's expression in the face of Xia Qinglian looked a little unnatural, and at this moment, she didn't know what mood she should use to face this Du Long's fan.

"Haha, when is the end of the day, it's not convenient for a few of us to stand here and talk, it just so happens that lunch time has also arrived, if the princess doesn't dislike it, how about you come to my place to eat together?!!

"Sister Caini come together, we two sisters and brothers have nothing to be polite!"

"This ...... Didn't you say that there was something to do in the afternoon when you went back to the palace for dinner?!" A little stunned, looking at Princess Huofeng who was pulled away by Du Long like a marionette, Du Caini was stunned for a long time before she smiled dumbly, shook her head helplessly, and quickly followed.

In the dining room of the East Wing, bursts of cheerful laughter rang out!

"Thank you, Mrs. Du!" Princess Huofeng blushed and thanked Mrs. Du Zhou Ruoxue from time to time.

"Hehe, it is our honor that Her Royal Highness the Princess can dine at home, come, this dish is not bad, you must repay it well!" Zhou Ruoxue smiled and put another chopstick into Princess Huofeng's bowl.

Du Long glanced at the Fire Phoenix Princess, who was usually like two people, and then he didn't care about it, and finally came back, there are not so many exquisite and delicious delicacies in the valley, and on the small golden snake seat set up on the side of the table, the little guy gobbled it up like his master, and ate it as ugly.

The four women at the table had four different smiles on their faces, looking at Du Long who was gobbling up from time to time, Du Zhentian didn't come back for dinner today on a business trip in the military department, and Old Man Du went out to meet friends and was not at home, so only the four of them accompanied Du Long to eat.

Stuffing a chicken leg into his mouth and biting it hard, Du Long ignored the mouthful of food and said, "Sister Caini, is there any enrollment information for the Royal Academy this time?

"The day after tomorrow will start enrollment, in order to take care of those who come to the capital from distant towns, the enrollment time will generally last for about half a month, that is, from the beginning of November, until the fifteenth day of the month, and the final admission list will be announced on the 16th, every year, and this year has not changed much!" Du Caini gave a general introduction.

"Ahh

She could sense that the aura emanating from Xia Qinglian's body had faintly reached a very high level of qi, and she had been focusing on Du Long just now, so she ignored it, this would talk about the Royal Academy, and she found out about the changes in Xia Qinglian's body!

You must know that when they first met in Zuixianglou, Xia Qinglian was still an ordinary person with no cultivation at all!

In this regard, the Du family has long been surprised, Du Long and Xia Qinglian will come back every once in a while, and Qinglian, who is not covered by the coiled snake ring, can't hide the changes in her strength from outsiders at all.

"Qinglian and Gongzi have been practicing penances in Lingyun Mountain for nearly a year, and they are lucky to reach the early strength of the ninth order of Yunqi, all of this is the credit of Gongzi!" Xia Qinglian glanced at Du Long with a grateful face, and replied softly.

"Ninth Order of Yunqi?!...... No matter how high a normal person's cultivation talent is, it is impossible for him to break through from the beginning of his cultivation to reach the ninth order strength of the Qi Accumulation within a year! Could it be that you can't take an elixir similar to the Guiyuan Pill?!" Princess Huofeng asked with an incredulous expression.

Xia Qinglian was about to answer, but was interrupted by Du Long: "Hehe, that's natural, by chance, I got a Guiyuan Pill, thinking that I had also taken one, and it would have no effect if I took it again, so I gave it to Qinglian!"

Looking at Du Long in amazement, although he didn't understand why he was lying, but out of absolute trust in her heart, Xia Qinglian naturally wouldn't pick up his lies, but secretly thought in her heart: 'Presumably Gongzi must have his reason for doing this!'

"I see! Even if you take the Guiyuan Pill to improve your fifth-order strength, you will have to upgrade to four small levels in a row to reach the ninth-order of Yunqi within a year, and your spring cultivation talent is also very good, I really didn't expect it! Qinglian girl actually has such a talent in cultivation!" Princess Huofeng nodded suddenly.

"Stinky boy, even Qinglian has reached the ninth order of Yunqi, what strength have you reached now?!" Du Caini stared at Du Long with a look of confusion and indignation.

"Hehe, don't be in a hurry, wait until the day of enrollment at the Royal Academy, you will naturally know, and now you will know how boring the hole cards are!" Du Long smiled dryly and sold Guanzi, which made Du Caini secretly crazy, she was not like Huofeng who hadn't seen Du Long for nearly a year, but every time she asked this kid, she didn't want to say it clearly.

"Qinglian, you and the stinky boy stay in Lingyun Mountain every day to cultivate, you must know what level of strength he has reached, right?! He doesn't want to say, it's up to you to say!" Du Caini obviously couldn't resist Du Long, but she couldn't help but be curious, and turned to Xia Qinglian to ask.

"This ......" Xia Qinglian hesitated, and finally could only respond apologetically: "I'm sorry Sister Caini! What the son doesn't want to say, Qinglian can't say ......."

"You ......" Du Caini never thought that even Xia Qinglian, who had always been weak, would be like this, and covered her head and rolled her eyes in frustration on the spot.

"Hehe, Qinglian did the right thing! Caini, don't force her!" At this moment, Zhou Ruoxue finally opened her mouth to relieve Xia Qinglian, this woman can pay so much attention to everything about her precious son, which makes her very happy as a mother.

Since even Zhou Ruoxue said so, Du Caini naturally had nothing to say, and even the curious Princess Huofeng couldn't open her mouth to ask, everyone continued to eat with various thoughts, and they could only wait for the day after tomorrow to see Du Long's true strength on the day of enrollment.
