"You miss me, I will accompany you back to the palace?"
"..."
What the devil emperor said with a sullen face didn't get a response for a long time, which made him very dissatisfied, and he couldn't care less about pretending to be indifferent. He cleared his throat and tried his best to look at Ye Yu with no expression.
Ye Yu was brought back to his senses by this light cough, slightly lowered his eyes, and lowered his voice slightly:
"Please allow Your Majesty."
"..."
This kind of "shyness" similar to that of the daughter's family made Ye Yunsheng and Liao Qing, who were used to the aggressive style of the princess, very uncomfortable.
But when they looked at Xuan Yi, they found that not only was their majesty not feeling uncomfortable at all, but they were almost unable to suppress the pleased emotions overflowing from their eyes.
Liao Qing wanted to cover his eyes.
It seemed that he also felt that he had lost his composure, and before Ye Yu looked up, Xuan Yi turned his gaze away and coughed lightly.
"Master Liao, I should only have archery left in my homework today?"
"..."
Knowing that His Majesty has done nothing today, Liao Qing can only open his eyes and talk nonsense:
"Yes, Your Majesty. You only have archery left."
"I recently sparred with Ye Shizi, and found that I have improved a lot in archery. Thinking about it, it shouldn't take too much time now—what does Master Liao think?"
"..." Liao Qing remained expressionless, "Yes, Your Majesty, you don't need to waste too much time."
... Your Majesty, since you are so eager to return home, why don't you just leave now
Liao Qing rolled his eyes and thought in his heart.
Then Liao Qing realized that he was still too naive after all—
After nodding his head, Xuan Yi seemed to glance at Ye Yu unintentionally, and asked, "Have you ever learned about archery?"
"...No." Although Ye Yu didn't understand, he answered.
Xuan Yi's eyes brightened slightly.
"Have you never seen others shoot arrows?"
Ye Yu was even more puzzled, "No."
Xuan Yi was satisfied: "Then today you can observe from the sidelines, and I will teach you in the future."
Ye Yu: "...??"
What did she say that gave Xuan Yi the wrong hint that he wanted to observe or learn archery
Before she could ask a question, His Majesty the Demon Emperor, who was wearing a riding and archery costume, had already turned around and walked towards the teaching area dedicated to archery.
Ye Yu, who really couldn't figure it out, could only lift his heels up helplessly.
After Ye Yu walked a long way, making sure that his spiritual sense could not sense the voice here, Ye Yunsheng smiled and sighed.
"At first, I thought that His Majesty and my sister had a similar relationship, but looking at it now... the thoughts and deeds of today's young people are becoming more and more incomprehensible."
"I don't understand this." Liao Qing showed no expression, "I heard that there is a kind of spirit beast named 'peacock' in the south of this fairyland, and the male peacock likes to open its tail when it is free. Open the door of the peahen's nest that you like—there is nothing new in the world, and they generally follow similar routes."
Although Ye Yunsheng is a decent person, he is not rigid. After hearing Liao Qing's obviously joking joke, he also became happy——
"Master Liao has a great opinion, and Ye admires it."
Liao Qing rolled his eyes and looked at Ye Yunsheng with a smile, "I have heard that Ye Shizi travels around the world a long time ago, and I have long wanted to ask Ye Shizi for advice. I wonder if Ye Shizi has time?"
"Thanks to Mr. Liao's respect, Ye Mou naturally knows everything."
"Haha... Ye Shizi is really bold, this way please."
"Master Liao, please."
…
There are about 20 to 30 archery stands in the archery area of the teaching ground, half of which are already standing. When Xuan Yi walked over, he picked the nearest vacant archery platform.
Almost without exception, the noble children in the archery area are cultivated, and they have noticed Xuan Yi's approach long before. Seeing that they couldn't avoid it anymore, they all turned back and made a salute.
Among them, those who generally knew the etiquette of respect and inferiority, retreated to the side after finishing the ceremony; but there were also a few who relied on the command of the regent Xuan Bin, and they all put on a calm appearance and continued to go back to practice.
Ye Yu didn't need to use the system to spy, and he could guess that the identities of these people must be the sons and daughters of officials who belonged to Xuan Bin in the magic city.
—Relying on the power of the family, he naturally has no respect for this puppet majesty who has no real power and no cultivation.
Even many of them looked at her with more respect than they looked at Xuan Yi.
This situation made Ye Yu feel uncomfortable, but Xuan Yi seemed to be used to it.
Until he walked to the archery stand and picked up the bow and arrow to check the bowstring and arrow point, Xuan Yi's expression looked the same as usual.
Even with Ye Yu's cultivation, it was enough to hear many low-volume sneers from behind the other archery stands.
Ye Yu looked at Xuan Yi's back with complicated eyes.
Today's Xuan Yi is only four years away from the past, but his temperament is very different from before...
"Does the host feel distressed?" The system popped out quietly and asked.
"..." Ye Yu's eyes flashed, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "How can you tell that I feel distressed?"
"The host's mood is mixed right now—it's obviously distressed..." the system whispered.
"It's not distressing, it's emotion."
System: "—What emotion??"
Ye Yu's eyes were loving: "Probably it's a kind of...'my dog has just grown up'."
system:"??"
Ye Yu ignored the system, and turned her attention to Xuan Yi who had already drawn the bow and shot the arrow.
Even though Xuan Yi's cultivation is imperceptible to Xuan Bin, Ye Yu guesses that Xuan Yi did not use his cultivation to cheat from the point of view of the arrow's path and the strength of hitting the target. It seems that the "trash" Majesty who has no real energy in his body is even more amazed by the accuracy of the arrows straight into the bull's-eye and the speed of one arrow after another without stopping.
Even when they competed with Ye Wangfu's son before, they never saw His Majesty the Devil Emperor's sharp shooting skills like this.
It can be described as like divine help.
It didn't take long for many people around the archery stand to turn their attention.
Listening to those secret emotions and praises, Ye Yu put on a smile in a good mood.
It's just that some people admire him from the bottom of their hearts, so naturally some people feel jealous and dissatisfied with being robbed of the limelight.
Especially those few noble children who are not far from the archery stage—the devil emperor who was secretly ridiculed by them just now, seems to have overshadowed their previous limelight. The passing sight was enough to make them blush.
One of the attendants lowered his voice:
"Master, how can this be..."
Someone interrupted, "Wait a while and I will do it myself."
"Young Master, do you want to...? After all, Young Master has a cultivation base, will this direct attack make others laugh?"
"I'll try my best to keep a good sense of proportion. Besides, if you don't save the face you just said, do you think no one will laugh at you?"
"Master is wise."
"..."
Using his spiritual sense to listen to the voices of several people, Ye Yu's eyes were slightly cold, but he didn't speak, and turned to look at Xuan Yi's archery stand.
The person standing behind the stage is still as strong as a pine, and seems to be oblivious to the conspiracy speeches more than ten feet away.
... It's so calm that people like it.
Ye Yu hooked his lips with a smile.
The system is far from Ye Yu's calm at this time—
"Why didn't the host take action to stop it? There is no such paragraph in the plot of the original book. Moreover, Xuan Yi will never reveal his cultivation at this time. If this continues, he will only be bullied by others..."
Ye Yu said unhurriedly: "Of course we can't stop it."
System: "... huh?"
"Do you know how to make people who want to do bad things afraid to do it again?"
Ye Yu asked with a smile.
At this time, in her line of sight, the person called "Young Master" had already walked to her own archery stand, picked up the bow and arrow, and drew the string to the full.
The slender bow body was drawn into an arc like a full moon, and the bow strings were moaning faintly in the air.
Many people's expressions changed slightly, and they all looked over.
—
That was an infusion of qi. As long as there are people with cultivation base present, they are very clear about this.
The system was in a hurry and didn't have time to answer Ye Yu's question, "If the host doesn't stop it, it will be too late!"
Ye Yu smiled, "If you want them not to do bad things again, it's useless to simply stop them."
At the same time as her words fell, the arrow swished away from the string, and the momentum it brought seemed to tear the wind and the air together.
After a while, there was a "boom", and a row of targets in the distance had already fallen down in the billowing smoke.
There was an uproar in the classroom.
This scene did not surprise Ye Yu at all. She walked forward with a smile, but her beautiful eyes were cold.
—
"Even if we stop this time, there will be a next time, and another time, and another time..."
Accompanied by her low voice talking to herself, the instigator on the archery stand pursed her lips in satisfaction, then made an expression of frustration, and bowed in the direction of Xuan Yi who was forced to stop—
"Just now, I accidentally leaked my true energy with an arrow, and I'm afraid I disturbed His Majesty. Qi Song's practice is not good at Prince Qi's residence, please forgive me!"
The man bowed down, but a smile appeared on his face invisible to others.
The teaching ground is full of sharp-eyed cultivators, listening to the ridicule with every word, they are silent at this moment, looking at Xuan Yi peacefully.
They were actually a little curious, wondering if this majesty would continue to endure these humiliations as before.
But in this silence, there was a self-talking voice that seemed to be a smile but not a smile to answer his last sentence——
"If you want to teach people not to do bad things, you have to punish them hard, hard, hard after they do it..."
As soon as the words fell, before everyone had time to turn their eyes, they first noticed a sharp zhenqi shooting out at a speed that many people couldn't react to, and it arrived in front of Qi Song who was bowing in an instant.
"ah!"
With an extremely tragic hoarse cry, bright red blood splashed into the air.
The crowd panicked for a moment.
In the center of everyone's focus, the young woman smiled beautifully and harmlessly, her almond eyes narrowed slightly:
"Hey, I'm sorry—I'm also not good at cultivation, and I accidentally leaked my true energy. If there is something disturbing..."
Ye Yu's voice stopped here, and then she twisted her figure, turned straight to Xuan Yi, bowed down without raising her eyes—
"I also ask Your Majesty to forgive me."
