Chapter 10 Inexperienced

"What's the matter with your outfit?"

Compared with Qi Xi's glamorous dress, Ye An wore a flimsy gray robe and covered his face with a hat.

It was supposed to be a date, but he dressed up like a thief.

He sat down, looked around, and then revealed a surprised look.

"Are you not afraid of being recognized by other people, Your Majesty?" Ye An asked.

"Why do I need to be afraid of it?"

Qi Xi held her chin and said coldly, "There are various ways to conceal our identity. Furthermore, don't you know that you can use Divine Art to cover up your scent? This is the most basic technique, and it can be used by people in any realm.”

Ye An thought for a while, but couldn't remember how to use it, so he smiled awkwardly and said,

"I fell into the Qi Deviation state before, and accidentally… I forgot how to use it."

"You forgot?!" Qi Xi sighed and said, "You are so dumb and it is very annoying. You could’ve told me that earlier."

She stomped her feet with anger, but she could not do anything, in the end, she could only take a sip of tea in a huff.

‘She is right. I am a careless person indeed.’ Ye An pondered for a while before saying, "Please accept my apologies, Your Majesty. I don’t have any experience, so I am a little nervous..."

pffff--

A sip of tea was suddenly sprayed on his face.

Qi Xi coughed a few times and trembled slightly.

Ye An's performance tonight was considerably different from his performance the day before.

He didn't have to say anything romantic, but he didn't have to be this boring, did he?

Could it be a side effect of falling into the Qi Deviation state?

"Ugh--" She sighed.

"Your Majesty?" Ye An asked.

"Forget it." Qi Xi scoffed coldly, rolling her eyes. "Let's take a rest here for a while."

After all, Ye An had just recovered from a serious injury, so she naturally had to give him some time to recover.

Secondly, Qi Xi also tried to cast a spell on him to conceal his identity.

In the eyes of outsiders, they appeared to be ordinary cultivators, who came to visit the night market.

"Let's go, you can throw away the gray robe. No one can recognize us anymore." Qi Xi said.

After a while, the two walked into the night market together.

The scent from the snack stalls made people unable to walk away.

Ye An took a glance around and saw that this night market was no worse than the Blue Star in his previous life.

This was a mortal night market, yet there were so many cultivators around.

He felt emotional all of a sudden.

One of the unavoidable scenarios in many novels was that the strong were respected and the weak were bullied.

Generally speaking, most cultivators regarded mortals as nothing more than tools.

Not to mention the fact that they didn't have to pay for their meal and drink, it was already a generous act that they didn't kill mortals.

This world was no exception.

However, under the protection of the holy temple, there was a slight turning point.

According to Ye An, the holy temple was comparable to law enforcement agencies. It was able to maintain peace at a steady pace while not being strong enough.

Ye An couldn't help but tilt his head and cast a quiet glance towards Qi Xi out of the corner of his eyes.

He had no idea what Qi Xi's genuine feelings were, or if she had ever considered changing her fate.

But he really didn't want to witness that someday in the future. The day when the empress Qi Xi was killed by the chosen, and the holy temple was destroyed by the chosen one.

...

"Why are you staring at me?"

Qi Xi met his stare with a small twist of her head, and her bright golden pupils met his eyes.

."Of course, because you are so pretty." Ye An responded in a nonchalant manner.

"Those words are pleasant to hear." Qi Xi said coldly, "But those are things I don't want to hear. I'm curious as to why the Mortal Night Market just has food stalls."

Ye An was speechless, "Isn't the night market all about food? The taste of the food in each shop varies from one end of the market to the other. This is the fun of the night market."

Qi Xi sighed and shook her head, "I’m slightly disappointed. I have no interest in eating.”

Qi Xi had been in power for about a century at this point. Naturally, she had lost interest in eating after such a long time.

Ye An originally wanted to suggest that if they went deeper, they could see antiques, jewelry, kites, lanterns, and other things.

But at that moment, he suddenly remembered a line of text--

[Weakness: Pretty boy complex and sweets]

This was explained on the system.

According to what the system said, the empress seemed to like sweets a lot.

"How about we take a look around for a while?" Ye An said, "Since we are already here, why don’t we try something new and see if you like it? What about that one?"

He pointed at a stall not so far away.

Qi Xi was not happy, but thinking that it was Ye An’s request, she agreed reluctantly, "Fine, let's go."

As a result the two walked in.

"Two red bean cakes please." Ye An said before taking the money and handing it over. In a moment, two red bean cakes were served.

Red beans were sweet. When Ye An was at Blue Star, he often used red bean fillings instead of chocolate, so he believed that Qi Xi would definitely like it.

"Here." Ye An handed one to Qi Xi.

"Huh?"

Qi Xi was dazed for a moment, then shook her head, "I can just watch you eat it."

"Are you sure?!"

Ye An doubted his ears, "It's very sweet. You really don’t want it?"

Sure enough, Qi Xi was a little shaken when she heard the word sweet.

But maybe it was to maintain the image. After a moment of meditation, she still refused, saying, "I don’t need it. Perhaps because of the long-term cultivation, I only have a dislike for mortal food, sorry."

"..." Ye An was silent for a moment.

She was trying to save her face again. She was obviously shaken when she heard the word ‘sweet’.

She was such a Tsundere.

"I am not going to be able to finish it, and I can't even return it to the shop." Ye An said, "Your Majesty, do you want me to beg you? After eating, I will take you to the inner night market. There are some antique jewelry shops there. It will be very fun."

"Beg… Beg me."

Qi Xi put her hands on his shoulders and said in a deep voice, "Since the Holy Child personally asked, I’ll have it."

"..."

"Now give it to me."

Qi Xi took the red bean cake and walked back, looking at the bean cake in a daze.

Indeed, as she said, she had a disgust and hatred towards some mortal foods.

But this cake, Ye An said it was sweet.

After thinking for a while, she decided to believe Ye An and took a bite.

(ー_ー)

(?ω?)

"It is so delicious."

She let out a soft sweet cry, her expression was really cute.

"See, I didn’t lie to you, right?" Ye An said.

"Mhm." Qi Xi nodded lightly, lowering her voice, "It's really sweet, and so are you."

Upon hearing this, Ye An was taken aback, "What?"

Qi Xi took a bite of the red bean cake and said like she didn’t say anything earlier, "It's nothing."

"I heard it, Your Majesty." Ye An said, "Didn't you say that I am sweet?"

"..."

Qi Xi blew her cheeks while still chewing on the red bean cake.

After a few seconds passed, she finally said, "When did I say it? So mushy!” She sneered again.

Her heart, on the other hand, was thumping and pounding hard, and a small blush rose on her gorgeous cheeks, and her heart quietly wondered, 'Why does he have to say it out...?'

Then she even speeded up the pace of her own accord, leaving Ye An behind him like a tyrant.
