Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Was the Lixing Empress Once the Celestial Emperor's Child Bride? Ten Years Old Without Cultivation—How Did the Celestial Emperor Achieve His Greatness?

I once promised that as long as I have a bite to eat, I will never let her starve!

"I never thought that the words of the young Celestial Emperor were entirely seen by himself as a promise."

"Such a young child already knows about promises, promises not to let the Lixing Empress starve, not to abandon her, truly rare."

"No matter what others say in the future, the current Celestial Emperor really seems to treat the Lixing Empress as his sister."

Seeing what the Celestial Emperor did for Luo Lixing.

Many cultivators couldn't help but feel something in their hearts.

No matter what happens to the Celestial Emperor in the future.

He is truly unquestionable in his treatment of Xiao Lixing now.

Luo Lixing silently watched the scene, no one knew what she was thinking.

...

The scene continued.

The woman feeding Xiao Lixing was somewhat snobbish, but fortunately, she wasn't completely cold-hearted.

Seeing Xiao Luo Xuan gradually becoming thinner, and seeing that Xiao Luo Xuan did indeed bring a lot of beast meat to their home.

Subsequently, she eased some of the conditions to a certain extent.

Also fed Xiao Lixing more milk than before.

Xiao Luo Xuan's figure managed to maintain and didn't thin out further.

Not long after, Xiao Lixing gradually began to speak.

"Daddy..."

Hearing Xiao Lixing's childish words.

Xiao Luo Xuan, surprised and delighted, couldn't help but correct her.

"Say brother."

"Daddy..."

"It's brother."

"Daddy~"

"Brother."

Xiao Luo Xuan patiently corrected her time and time again.

Eventually, the little girl made some progress.

"Guagua."

Xiao Luo Xuan hearing this, was somewhat helpless.

Goodness, now it changed from daddy to a bug.

This was practically a major demotion.

However, since Xiao Lixing could say "guagua," it was still progress.

...

Xiao Lixing grew day by day.

Under Xiao Luo Xuan's guidance, the words she could say increased more and more.

"Guagua hug, lift high~"

"Okay, brother will hug, lift high."

"Guagua, I want to ride the big horse~"

"Come come, ride the big horse."

Xiao Luo Xuan would lift Xiao Lixing high after.

And place her on his neck to mimic riding a horse.

"Guagua, I also want to go hunting in the mountains with you~"

"Hmm... that's not okay, Lixing, you'd better stay at home first."

"No, no, I want to go."

"Well... okay, when you're a bit older, we'll go."

"Hehe, Guagua is the best!"

As time passed by.

Xiao Luo Xuan became even thinner compared to before.

Not due to anything else, just because he, besides hunting for the woman to exchange for milk to feed Luo Lixing,

also saved part of the money from selling beast meat little by little to buy an abandoned house in the village.

In this way, the siblings finally had a real home.

However, this also resulted in his severe nutritional deficiency during this period.

His body was considered thin compared to peers.

Cultivators from the Celestial Emperor Palace watched this scene and couldn't help but sigh.

"One has to admit, the young Celestial Emperor was truly kind to the Lixing Empress at this time."

"Indeed, even raising a younger sister, not to mention raising a wife, can't be more considerate than this."

"Speaking of raising a wife, come to think of it, wasn't the Lixing Empress technically the Celestial Emperor's child bride in a sense when she was young?"

"Yes, if one speaks purely from the parents' betrothal arrangements, the Lixing Empress was indeed—"

The words in the hall couldn't continue as they suddenly felt the temperature in the hall drop drastically.

Their throats felt as if choked by an invisible force.

This realization awakened them from their initial thoughts.

Many of them were merely at the cultivation of Quasi-Emperor, and Luo Lixing was genuinely a Great Emperor!

Quasi-Emperor discussing a Great Emperor recklessly, this was just asking for death!

If it weren't for the fact that the Lixing Empress was righteous,

many of them would've already been beheaded!

Many people obediently shut their mouths at this moment, daring not to speak recklessly again.

Meanwhile, Luo Lixing watched the scene unfold.

Previously, her biological parents were clearly preparing to sell her off as a child bride to someone else.

Xiao Luo Xuan appeared and intervened, saving her under the pretense of buying her.

In a way, it seemed that she really was…

"In the beginning, was I actually his child bride..."

Just as this thought appeared in Luo Lixing's mind, she immediately dismissed it from her mind.

No, now there was only enmity between her and Luo Xuan.

They weren't even considered siblings, let alone anything about being a child bride!

Now she wished she could devour his flesh and drink his blood!

However, watching the scenes of Luo Xuan's actions toward her when they were young,

her heart indeed was somewhat touched at the moment.

At least at the very beginning, Xiao Luo Xuan genuinely cared for her.

"But why did you change afterward?"

...

The scene continued.

After Xiao Lixing grew up a little more, Xiao Luo Xuan took her hunting in the mountains as promised.

Of course, even when they went, they went to relatively safe places.

Even so, it was enough to make Xiao Lixing chirp and jump with joy.

She had always stayed in the village and had never seen such a different world outside.

After growing a bit more, Xiao Lixing no longer needed to drink just milk.

Xiao Luo Xuan would also hunt some beast meat for her to eat.

However, after one or two years of hunting, the wild game in this mountain had nearly been hunted to extinction by Xiao Luo Xuan.

The siblings occasionally lived alternating between having meals and skipping meals.

And when there was food, Xiao Luo Xuan always let Xiao Lixing eat first.

This allowed Xiao Lixing to replenish her nutrition, but at the cost of Xiao Luo Xuan's physique being notably smaller and thinner compared to his peers.

The fruits in the mountains weren't many in number, very few varieties, almost exclusively papaya trees.

The fruits were naturally always offered to Xiao Lixing first.

From young to now, Xiao Lixing consumed plenty and plenty of papayas.

Many cultivators from the Celestial Emperor Palace thought about another special use for papayas, and their expressions turned a bit peculiar.

But they didn't dare to look at the Lixing Empress at the moment.

In the end, Luo Lixing herself subconsciously looked down.

"Indeed, it seems quite effective..."

...

In the scene, such a life went on for five or six years.

Xiao Luo Xuan and Xiao Lixing both grew up.

Xiao Lixing became more and more adorable, with a chubby and pink little face.

In contrast, Xiao Luo Xuan appeared much thinner.

However, seeing his sister so healthy and with a rosy face made Xiao Luo Xuan genuinely smile.

The people in the Celestial Emperor Palace watched this scene.

Besides feeling that the young Celestial Emperor was indeed very kind to the Lixing Empress at this time.

They couldn't help but also feel a bit confused.

"Speaking of which, isn't the Celestial Emperor about eleven years old at this time, almost? The eleven-year-old Celestial Emperor hasn't started cultivating yet?"

"If the Celestial Emperor hasn't started cultivating by now, even with double pupils, wouldn't it be a bit too late to achieve the future accomplishments of the Celestial Emperor?"

Many people couldn't help but feel confused.

At this time, the Celestial Emperor hadn't started cultivating yet but wanted to achieve future accomplishments of the Celestial Emperor.

Is it too late?

As some people were thinking this, it so happened that the young Luo Xuan who was daily taking Xiao Lixing hunting in the mountains.

Suddenly sensed a wisp of danger in the air.

"Sister, hide and don't make a sound!"

The young Luo Xuan brought Xiao Lixing to hide.

Xiao Lixing obediently covered her mouth.

Subsequently, the sibling pair saw.

In the distance, a pack of beasts was attacking and biting a young boy who looked about the same age as young Luo Xuan!
