Chapter 1181 Defeating Xi Meili


?1181 Defeating Xi Meili


Seeing Yuan"s surprised reaction, Xi Meili couldn"t help but blush a little.


"Why are you acting like that now? You didn"t even react to it the last time I said it."


"You said that during our last match as well?" Yuan was surprised to hear this since he doesn"t recall it and he has an amazing memory.


"Don"t tell me… you didn"t hear it?" Xi Meili was speechless, but this explained his lack of reaction, something she would think about from time to time.


"Sorry…" Yuan could only apologize to her.


"Don"t worry about it."


And she continued, "But don"t think I will go easy on you because I want to marry you!"


Xi Meili increased her Dragon"s Gaze strength all the way to its limit, her golden eyes glistening like jewels under sunlight.


Unfortunately, it had no effect on Yuan, who had vastly superior Soul Strength.


Not wanting to completely humiliate Xi Meili in front of so many people, Yuan would slowly increase his Dragon"s Gaze strength.


"..."


Xi Meili could feel an invisible pressure that was not there before slowly enveloping her body, pressing down on her body and making it difficult for her to breathe.


"This is… I am losing to his Dragon"s Gaze?" Xi Meili almost couldn"t believe it.


A year ago, she easily dominated Yuan with half of her full strength, so how did she become weaker than him in such a short time? Since time flowed differently for her, it felt even shorter than what humans would normally feel.


This made her wonder if the difference between someone who awakened seven pillars and someone who awakened all nine pillars was truly that vast, as it was like heaven and earth.


Eventually, Xi Meili could no longer endure it any longer and lost consciousness for a moment.


During that brief moment of unconsciousness, she fell right into Yuan"s arms, who was prepared to catch her before she even closed her eyes.


The entire place became dead silent as every soul there witnessed Xi Meili lose for the first time… ever.


And it was even in her specialty— Soul Strength.


Yuan held onto Xi Meili"s soft body until she recovered her consciousness.


"So you defeated me…" Xi Meili mumbled as she continued to rely on Yuan"s body for support, almost as though she didn"t want to move.


After taking a moment to process her defeat, Xi Meili said, "Alright. Since you won, I"m going to marry you now."


"What about your arranged marriage?" He asked with a stiff smile.


"Like I"d already said, it"s not an arranged marriage! We are not even engaged!" she said with a slight frown on her face.


Since this appeared to be a family problem, Yuan decided not to intervene too much, and he still wasn"t sure if Xi Meili was joking about marrying him or not, as she was the type to make these kinds of jokes without batting an eye.


"Anyways, I am getting hungry. Wanna grab something to eat? It"ll be my treat." She asked him.


Yuan couldn"t refuse free food and immediately nodded, "Sure."


After saying goodbye to the dragons in the Ancestral Dragon Temple, Yuan followed Xi Meili to get some food.


Meanwhile, the dragons continued to talk about Yuan and Xi Meili"s relations.h.i.+p even long after they were gone.


"So the rumors were true! That Princess Xi is in love with that human!"


"What about the Azure Dragon Family? I heard that they have been sending a lot of gifts to the Xi Dragon Family recently."


"Isn"t that just the Azure Dragon Family trying to court her? I don"t think they"re in that kind of relations.h.i.+p yet, especially since there"s no official news."


"I have a feeling that something big will happen soon…"


After leaving the Ancestral Dragon Temple, Yuan and Xi Meili visited many restaurants and food stalls, filling their stomachs while completely forgetting that there was a feast waiting for them back home.


"The food in this place is truly unique. I doubt I will be able to find this food in the outside world." Yuan sighed as he finished his last plate of food.


"If you live here, you will be able to eat it every day." Xi Meili said in a joking tone.


"As good as that sounds, I have a lot of work outside." Yuan still answered her seriously.


"Hmmm…" Xi Meili suddenly started staring at him intensively.


"I am just noticing this now that we are sitting down and relaxing, but you have really matured a lot compared to last year. You no longer seem as ignorant, either."


He smiled, "I will take that as a compliment."


After another moment of silence, Xi Meili opened her mouth again, but she was more serious this time.


"Hey… I don"t think I have heard your response yet. I was serious when I said that I want to marry you. Or are you against it because I am not human?"


Due to the heavy subject, Yuan couldn"t give an immediate response and had to take a long moment to think about it.


"This matter… I believe it is bigger than just the both of us. Of course, I don"t have any issue with you not being a human. Unfortunately, I have zero experience when it comes to marriage, so I cannot give you a satisfactory response."


"Then ignoring all of the other details, would you be willing to marry me? I will follow you to the outside world if I have to." Xi Meili said with tightly grasped hands.


"If I ignore everything, then I wouldn"t mind marrying you. However, there are things that I cannot ignore, so I wouldn"t be able to do so."


After all, he already has two official partners. If he really had to consider marriage with someone else, he"d need their opinion on the matter as well.


"Is that so…" Xi Meili turned silent after hearing Yuan"s unofficial rejection.


"As I thought, it"s a little too early to be talking about marriage to someone who I"ve only recently met." Xi Meili never thought she"d be rejected by the opposite s.e.x, but she also realized her own rashness and pondered upon it.
