The Crazy Princess Returns and Becomes the First Beast Tamer
Chapter 118 The calm before the storm
Nangong Su just stood there, opening her arms. "Li'er." This voice was also choked with sobs.
"Mother." Di Yunli ran to Nangong Su and after confirming several times that she was really alive, he hugged her tightly in his arms.
"Mom~" This word of mom contains a feeling of grievance, relief, and also the joy of regaining what was lost.
It was because in Pang Lang's memory, she saw Nangong Su was almost seriously injured while protecting the people, but he still insisted on standing in front of the battle with a knife in his hand.
She saw that Nangong Su's fetus was beating violently, and in order to protect the flesh and blood in the fetus, she turned around without thinking and was hit fatally by the beast.
Blood soaked Nangong Su's back, leaving horrifying scratches on her back, which was once as white as snow, with flesh and blood rolled up and deep enough to see the bones.
In Pang Lang's memory, Di Yunli almost wanted to stop the tragedy from happening, and didn't want Nangong Su to get hurt again. Unfortunately, she only existed in Pang Lang's memory, and she couldn't change anything.
She could only watch helplessly as Nangong Su took a pill in order to delay Nangong Xiong's return. The pill could instantly restore her to her peak state. However, the price of the pill's ineffectiveness was a shattered soul and a death sentence.
She watched with her own eyes as her mother, after giving birth to her, ignored her health and once again put on armor and went into battle, and watched her mother die at the hands of the enemy. She could do nothing, nothing at all.
"Li'er, you've grown up." Nangong Su's heart was filled with relief, and her eyes were filled with pride for Di Yunli. "Your uncle often tells me about your affairs."
"My dear Li'er has really grown up and has become a very, very outstanding empress."
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, also crying with joy.
It was also after Nangong Su's resurrection that Di Yunli could temporarily stop being a ruthless emperor and become just the daughter of an ordinary family.
She has her mother's love and protection, and she also has her mother's homemade desserts to eat.
Under the moon, mother and daughter have a heart-to-heart talk.
"Li'er, are you leaving?"
Di Yunli hesitated for a moment and nodded, "There are still many things I must do."
Although she has not stopped arranging border defenses in the past few months, she also often returns to the Fentui Sect to develop magical weapons against the demons.
But this is far from enough, she needs to become stronger quickly, and go into seclusion to consolidate her realm, she still has so many things waiting for her to do.
Nangong Su gently stroked Di Yunli's hair and let her rest her head on his legs. "You and I, mother and daughter, were not born into ordinary families. If what you said is true, then go ahead and do it boldly."
"Mother will help you manage and coordinate Beili's affairs. Once the crisis is over, mother will appoint a new king for Beili. My son is destined to soar thousands of miles, and the mundane world cannot always be a hindrance to you."
"If you are tired, come back and take a rest. No matter what, mother and uncle will always be your solid support."
Di Yunli didn't say anything, but just rested his head on Nangong Su's legs, feeling particularly comfortable and at ease.
Silence at this moment is better than anything else.
Imperial Capital College, Tianmiao Peak.
Di Yunli returned again, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart. Thinking back to when he first came here, he felt like he was in another world.
The only difference from before was that the sky was now filled with snowflakes, and the Imperial College and many mountain peaks were all covered in white. It was dazzling white, but also very beautiful.
"Senior sister, you are back~"
Xiao Ling'er sensed a familiar breath approaching and poked her head out of her courtyard. Her house was located next to Di Yunli's residence, just like a neighbor.
"Senior Sister~" Xiao Ling'er ran over like offering a treasure, holding a plate of pastries in her hand.
"Ling'er, what are you doing..."
"I made these pastries for you, please try them." Her cheeks seemed to be blown by the cold wind and turned a little red.
"It's snowing heavily, why did you think of making cakes?"
"It's almost the end of the year, and it's our custom to eat this cake at the end of the year. It's called An Sui Gao, and eating it will bring you peace and safety for the whole year."
Di Yunli picked up a piece and took a bite. It was sweet but not greasy, and there was a fresh fragrance on the tip of his tongue. When the cake entered his stomach, it was like a warm current entering his body, dispelling the cold.
Although the ice and snow had no effect on Di Yunli now, he felt warm in his heart as he ate the food made by his junior sister.
"You're a princess, and you can do this?"
"Well, I'm greedy, so I always learn to make some myself." Xiao Ling'er changed her mind and said, "I heard that Senior Sister is coming back, so I have already cleaned your room. You can rest assured and stay here."
"Cleaning? Just use some spiritual power to disperse the dust. You are a princess. Even if you are a cultivator now, you don't have to please me like this."
"Senior Sister~" Xiao Ling'er put down the cake, "Ling'er just admires you very much, and just wants to be closer to you. What's more, it was Senior Sister who saved Ling'er's life in the Immortal Tomb. Ling'er is supposed to do everything for you."
Di Yunli smiled and tapped her forehead. "You helped me first, so it's only natural for me to save you. Speaking of which, I dragged you into danger when we first met, and I always feel like I owe you something."
Xiao Ling'er laughed, "I don't care. Senior Sister is so nice and treats Ling'er very well. What Ling'er did were just some small things. As long as Senior Sister doesn't mind, it's fine."
Di Yunli smiled helplessly and shook his head, his eyes unable to hide his affection. "Forget it, as long as you are happy."
For the next period of time, Di Yunli was basically in seclusion.
Her cultivation level has risen three levels in a row, but she has not been able to practice seclusion properly until now, so her foundation is not very solid.
Several months passed, and after Di Yunli consolidated his realm, he broke through the peak of the sixth level of Lingqiao and reached the seventh level of Lingqiao.
During this period, under her control, Beili had already arranged a defense line in advance. Because of her one after another novel drawings, Fentui Sect also created many new magic weapons with strong attack power.
As a result, the status and financial strength of the Fencui Sect in the eastern part of Gengshi Continent both rose.
Except for the fact that Canghai College disappeared and never reappeared, everything seemed so peaceful and prosperous.
But Di Yunli knew best that this was just the calm before the storm.
"Senior Sister, are you out of seclusion?" Xiao Ling'er didn't look very good.
"What's wrong? Is there anyone who dares to bully you in Imperial Capital College?"
Not to mention the deterrent power of Di Yunli's name in the Imperial Capital Academy, Xiao Ling'er's own character, as well as her strength and status, are not something that ordinary disciples can bully.
"No one bullied me. I was just angry. I was angry at those short-sighted mediocre people for saying that about you in private."
"I was so angry that I beat them up. The teacher found out and punished me to face the wall and reflect on my mistakes. I was not allowed to leave Tianmiao Peak."
Di Yunli smiled, "I'm talking about you, why are you so angry?"
"No!" Xiao Ling'er pounded the table in anger, "It's obvious that they are short-sighted. Why do they have to criticize you? They just saw that you were in seclusion and thought you couldn't hear them, so they dared to shout like that."
After going through so many things, Di Yunli's personality has become more stable now. He is not as hot-tempered as before and would explode at any time. Otherwise, some of the disciples would suffer.
"Are you saying that I am wasting the power of the whole country and am unworthy of being an emperor? Or am I becoming more and more cowardly and surrounding Beili like an iron barrel?"
Di Yunli couldn't help laughing when he saw Xiao Ling'er's expression. "It seems that they have all of them, or there are even more unpleasant ones, right?"
Just when Di Yunli was about to say something, he suddenly looked up at the distant sky.
The originally clear sky suddenly had cracks. The aura that permeated through the cracks was something that Di Yunli was very familiar with.
She stood up suddenly, "Quick, notify the teacher and activate the defense formation, quick!"
