A Da let out a cry, startling the little kitten, which jumped out of Xiuer's arms and into Xia Ji's embrace.
Oh~
This little cat has actually reached the peak of the Spirit Gathering Realm?
Xia Ji sensed the kitten's aura for a moment and realized that since capturing Bai Ling'er, the kitten's strength had indeed reached the peak of the Spirit Gathering Realm.
Could it be that after undergoing a Tribulation, its strength increased by a whole realm?
Xia Ji pondered this, planning to verify it slowly in the future.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, sixteen years ago, I accompanied the prince to this Extreme North Snowy City. At that time, Extreme North Snowy City was not as desolate as it is now, so I believe something must have happened here," A Da Commander said with cupped hands.
What you said is no different from saying nothing at all. Xia Ji glared at him and asked, "But what did you come here for with the prince sixteen years ago?"
"To... to propose... propose marriage for Your Highness the Crown Prince," A Da stammered.
Xia Ji almost bit his tongue in surprise, then slapped his forehead, realizing that this kind of behavior was indeed something his peculiar father would do.
Heaven help me, sixteen years ago, I must have just been born, right? And that peculiar father of mine was already planning to find a wife for his son.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the prince had considered quite a few noble ladies for you back then, but they all thought you were too young, so..." A Da spoke more smoothly this time but was directly punched by Xia Ji.
"Don't talk nonsense if you can't speak properly. Just because I'm young doesn't mean others can look down on me for being too young!"
"Forget it, let's head to the Lord's mansion in Extreme North Snowy City first." Xia Ji adjusted his clothes and couldn't help but kick A Da lightly before signaling everyone to walk towards the Lord's mansion.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, please take a seat." The current head of the Bai family, Bai Wuji, politely gestured for Xia Ji to sit down while serving fragrant tea, wearing a kind expression.
"Uncle Bai, you're too kind." Faced with Bai Wuji's enthusiasm, Xia Ji felt a bit overwhelmed.
His future father-in-law was not someone to be underestimated. If it weren't for the bootlicking system giving him a hint earlier, Xia Ji wouldn't have known that Bai Wuji had quietly broken through to the True Martial Realm's third level.
It was rumored that only the previous generation's lord of the Bai family had reached the peak of the True Martial Realm, just half a step away from the Divine Bridge Realm. Once the old lord passed away, there would be no more true martial artists in Extreme North Snowy City.
However, now, just among the several Elders sitting beside them, each was at the peak of the Celestial Realm. This showed that Extreme North Snowy City was indeed low-key and had substantial depth.
"Since you call me uncle, I'll take the liberty to call you my dear nephew," Bai Wuji laughed heartily. "Ning Su has become even more beautiful these past few years. When she comes over later, you two should get along well."
"Uh, okay." Xia Ji nodded awkwardly. That girl Ning Su was really fierce; he remembered when she came to Shengjing City to play with him when she was five or six years old, he almost got beaten up badly. Fortunately, Xia Ji had a clever idea and suggested a contest to see who could urinate farther, which allowed him to win against her.
Thinking back on those naive years makes one feel a bit embarrassed.
"Uncle Bai, what level of cultivation has Ning Su reached now?" Xia Ji took a sip of tea and asked somewhat nervously, worried that he might not be able to handle that girl.
Xia Ji's words surprised Bai Wuji, but he thought it was just the Crown Prince showing concern for his little daughter. His smile became even more enthusiastic as he replied, "Ning Su is quite talented and has gained the favor of our Ancestor, who taught her the Ice Spirit Divine Light. She has now entered the Unity Realm."
As Xia Ji and Bai Wuji, the future father-in-law and son-in-law, were engaged in a lively conversation, a girl dressed in red burst in, swinging a fiery red whip.
"Dad! I heard that that little rascal Xia Ji has come to Shengjing City. Where is he? Just wait until I catch him; I'll make him regret it with just one hand!"
