Chapter 138: Intergalactic Tour

Translator:KingbaoEditor:DarkGem

Ever since their game accounts were frozen,they had thoroughly exposed themselves.

Yao Sirealizedthat Mu Xuan had certain intentions toward her. She hadnever had any real relatives and wasn't sure she would have felt around themHowever, she was sure that they would never make her heart race,and she would never harbor any thoughts ofkissing them or other...cough...not appropriate ideas.

She readily accepted the changes in their relationship since...she likedhim!

Yetshe would have never expected the troubled and awkward person to be Mu Xuan!

"Mu Xuan, I—"

"Mmh, eat your food!" Mu Xuan snatched her bowl and filled it back up with duck blood curd.

Yao Si froze.I haven'teven finishedthe previous serving?It was the Nth timethathe had diverted the topic that day. Ever since they left the game, he was left in this state, refusing to even look her in the eyes. He would look at the sky orthe bowl of duck blood curd,but never at her. His 'allergic reaction' on theneck was also turning into a common occurrence.

Was he embarrassed by... having a reaction?

But wasn't his adaption period too long? They have been out of the game for two days, and she had already gotten used to it, so why was he...

Wait a minute!

A strange thought emerged in her mind.

"Mu Xuan, was that your first kiss?" she blurtedout.

A certain someone trembled, and the full bowl of duck blood curd spilledonto the table. Theflush rushedup from his neck straight to his face, turning it a deep shade of red.

"I-I have something to attend to; you can eat first." He dropped the bowl of duck blood curd as though it was burning hot pancakesand bolted out ofthe room without even cleaning his hands. Thespeedand anxiety were like those of an escapee.

"..."

No way! If they ignored their first forced kiss, then this...was their first kiss!

(⊙ o ⊙)

Mu Xuan had been living as a bloodling for a few million yearssohow could he have preserved his first kiss? Did he not even havea partnerfor which he hadambiguousfeelings?

Why did it seem as though she had just hit the jackpot?

His alarmed state in the last two days had beenbecause he was panicking on the inside due to...lack of experience!

Yao Si finally understood what the Elders meant by calling him a million year old single dog. Wasn't he too pure?

But...she could feel a budding excitement spread though her as she planned on how to tease him!

If she wanted to do it, she couldn't backout.Lets go!She turned and chased after him."Mu Xuan, lets have a talk!" While shouting at him, she suddenly had a dejavu moment.

O(∩_∩)O

However, when she saw Mu Xuan's awkward manner, she couldn't continue. The next day, heseemed to have sorted himselfoutand was back to being solemn and formal, with occasional flushes,but he remained rooted and didn't try to escape again.

"What's this?" Yao Si pointed towardalarge stack of documents that Mu Xuan had sent her.

"It has all sorts of travel information," he explained as he tapped openthe documents."Aren't you still unfamiliar with the Galaxy? You won't be able to experience itif you just learn through the academy. It would be better if Ibrought around itso Ibooked flights to a few different places."

"You mean we are going to travel the Galaxy!" Yao Si's eyes brightened. She had always wanted to do that,but restrained herself due to his strict parenting. Yet now he was the one who volunteered the idea! "But...isn't there still a lot to do in the Red Planet? Can you really leave?"Won't the Elders go crazy?

"Mmh." He nodded nonchalantly."They were fine back when I was in hibernation."They will do fine.

"There is a hierarchyto everything." Only through experience would hisSisi learneverything that she needed to know, and it couldn'tbe taught by the academy alone. It wasbest to let her witness thingsfirst hand. Besides, she had been caught up in so such much trouble within the two years of her study that he was determined not to allow his cub to remain there."You are more important."

Yao Si'sheart rose as she nodded enthusiastically, "Alright, whendo we leave? I'll need to pack."

"It's not necessary. Ihave already packed everything you need into your optical computer's storage."He caressed her head, his solemn expression softening."Lets head over to the pier. The first stop will be to the water regionsince it's closest. You can read about it a little."

"Alright."Yao Si took a quick glance at the information while appreciating how well prepared Mu Xuan was. "Is this considered our honeymoon?" They had went through the wedding ceremony afterall.

Mu Xuan who was about to open the door froze. After a moment, he bumped into the door with a thud before anxiously saying, "Si...si, stop playing around! It's getting late, and the aircraft is about to leave." Without a second glance, he pulled her out the door.

"..."What did she just say?Was there a need to run at such a speed?

Besides, you got the wrong person? Where are you bringing the house'smain control?

"Where did His Majesty go? Why can't we get a hold of him? Bai Yi, did you find him at his home?"someone asked in Elders Council two hours later.

"There wasn't anyone there, not even Her Highness."

"I found it! Ijust received a notification stating that they left the planet,but registered in many different planets so we can't find their exact location at the moment."

"What!They left the planet?! How could His Majesty leave at such a crucial period when there is so much to be done? What should we do?"

"Who knows what important matter His Majesty could be attending to that would involve Her Highness?"

"..."All the elders.

"..."Li Zheng and Bai Yi.

Thetwowere suddenly reminded of a notification in the game...

In order to stay alive, they remained silent,feigning ignorance.

Yao Si would have never expectedMu Xuan, the ultimate homebody,to leave on a holiday in such a carefree manner. He was rightthough in that it would be best for her to fill up the gaps in her knowledge through experiencerather than just schooling.

They were now heading over to the water region which was closest to the Red Planet. In the notes that Mu Xuan had prepared for her, both the aquatic folk and celestials had been around since before the Alliance era. They were both races that valued harmony, didn't posses advancedtechnology,and were mainly people without ability.

However, the mermen lived primarily in water. Even though they could move on land, it was difficult for them to venture up to shore. Due to that, they werepeople that rarely left their mother planet and were considered rather conservative.

Yao Si stilled, rememberinga scene fromthe fairytale which spent most of its timeunderwater."Are they mermaids?"
