Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System
Chapter 1223 - 1221: Marry Me!

Sally was visiting Qianyuan City for the first time.

It was the only place that remained completely intact in the disaster, unaffected by any calamity.

Some said that Xuanyuan City was chosen by the Heavens and favored by the gods, hence Qianyuan City was also protected.

Xiaomei wholeheartedly agreed with this view, [Qianyuan City was indeed under his protection.]

Sally used her strength to fend off the largest meteorite.

Meanwhile, Xuanyuan City, along with the Superpower Users of this world, protected the entire Qianyuan City.

Although it was just a city, in the final moments of the disaster, it accommodated 3.5 billion people, with even the alleys packed to the brim!

Sally looked at the light screen of her Light Computer, at the latest public speech by Xuanyuan City, [Xiaomei, I've noticed that Xuanyuan City's changes are becoming more and more pronounced. Have you noticed how he now exudes an intimidating aura? Just a change in his expression can make knees weak, his dominance is growing stronger.]

A car stopped in front of Sally.

Aisente stepped out, in a sharp suit, wearing white gloves on his hands, and gave Sally a gentlemanly bow, "I am Aisente, the Grand Steward of Your Majesty, glad to see you again, Miss Yan."

"Hmm, still doing okay." Sally appraised Aisente, who was smiling. He had changed too.

The formerly gentle and kind boy had grown taller and more slender over the years. Rumor had it that he had also awakened a superpower, though it was not publicly known. He carried himself with elegance and grace, and he was more handsome, exuding a wise and composed demeanor.

"Your Majesty awaits Miss Yan at the Imperial Palace, please get in the car." Aisente opened the car door, holding the top to prevent Sally from hitting her head as she got in.

"Thank you." Sally smiled.

Aisente drove towards the Imperial Palace, neither too fast nor too slow, very steadily.

"Do you know why Your Majesty called me over?" Sally asked.

"Yes." Aisente replied without hurry, looking ahead, "One reason is Miss Yan's influence among the public. Another is that Miss Yan is very age-compatible with Your Majesty."

[You hit the nail on the head.] Sally said to Xiaomei.

Xiaomei continued playfully, [Another reason might be the friendship between the Host and Sally.]

"Most importantly, Miss Yan has ties with Miss Su, and Your Majesty often pays attention to Miss Yan's heroic acts."

"What if I don't agree?" Sally suddenly felt uneasy, was she being used as a substitute? Even though she was her own substitute, it still felt unpleasant.

Aisente said, "Miss Yan seems to care very much about her positive image."

Sally's expression changed slightly, "Are you threatening me?"

Aisente laughed, "Of course not. Miss Yan can view this marriage as a win-win situation, which is also Your Majesty's view. He can win more people's faith in Miss Yan, and Miss Yan only needs to marry Your Majesty. Whether you are a real couple or a fake one, that depends on Miss Yan and Your Majesty. We are very much looking forward to the birth of a Prince or Princess."

"..." Sally looked at Aisente, amazed, "You've really changed."

"Oh?" Aisente raised his eyebrows slightly, "Miss Yan, did we know each other before?"

"No." Sally denied it immediately.

Aisente glanced at Sally through the rearview mirror, especially focusing on her eyes!

The car drove straight into the Imperial Palace, finally stopping at a garden gate labeled Imperial Garden.

Aisente opened the car door, still holding the top, and extended a gentlemanly invitation, "Miss Yan, Your Majesty awaits in the Imperial Garden."

Sally took his hand to get out of the car, gazing at the Imperial Garden within, blooming with flowers, as beautiful as a fairyland.

Aisente withdrew his hand.

Sally turned her gaze to him.

All of a sudden, he seemed to wear a mask of smiles, making it hard to discern what lay beneath it, "What superpower did you awaken?"

"Miss Yan will find out in the future." Aisente's smile deepened.

Sally took a deep breath and stepped into the Imperial Garden.

Aisente watched her silhouette, "A person's appearance may change, but their eyes do not."

Xuanyuan City sat in front of a chess table, a game was mid-play.

Sally approached, "Your Majesty."

"Please sit." Xuanyuan City looked up at Sally, "Miss Yan!"

"Thank you." Sally frowned slightly, feeling his tone was particularly heavy when he addressed her as 'Miss Yan.'

She sat across from him, looking at the chessboard, finding it somewhat familiar.

[Host, you've played with him before, but it ended due to too many takebacks.] Xiaomei reminded Sally.

Sally suddenly realized, [Why did he set up this endgame? Does he suspect my identity!]

"Since we last parted, everything well?" Xuanyuan City asked, looking into her eyes.

Sally nodded, "Quite well. I'm pretty active online, Your Majesty might notice if you're a bit gossipy."

"Do you have a boyfriend?" Xuanyuan City asked seemingly casually, but his hand resting on his knee was clenched into a fist.

Sally smiled, "If I did, Your Majesty wouldn't see me here."

Xuanyuan City's hand slowly relaxed, then he took out a pink Light Computer from the Storage Space in his Light Computer.

Seeing that pink Light Computer, Sally was certain, relieved, she asked with a smile, "How much space does it have?"

"8 cubic meters, the largest available." Xuanyuan City handed it to her.

"Then it's worth changing." Sally accepted the Light Computer, then replaced the one on her wrist.

Inside the space, there were pink roses and a pink diamond ring!

"When did you find out?" Sally took out the pink diamond ring from the space, playing with it between her fingertips.

Xuanyuan City took out a document sealed with a tape from the Light Computer space.

Sally put down the diamond ring, accepting the document.

Inside was the Life Ark list she had left in the study on Mingzhu Island, along with a fingerprint report from two years ago.

"From the moment I knew I wasn't on the list, I started to suspect. Then there's this fingerprint report, although you've changed your appearance, your fingerprints didn't change."

"Sally!" Xuanyuan City lowered his gaze and when he looked at Sally again, there were faint traces of moisture in his eyes, reflecting her image, "I don't want to be alone anymore, marry me!"

[Host, agree to him!] Xiaomei said cheerfully.

Sally slightly tilted her head, smiling at Xuanyuan City, "Alright!"

The pink diamond ring slid onto the slender ring finger of Sally's right hand.

"Is it pretty?" Sally showed it to Xuanyuan City.

Xuanyuan City hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his chest, "Yes!"

Night fell.

The moon was shrouded by a thin layer of clouds, sparse stars shining brightly.

Sally nestled in Xuanyuan City's embrace.

Though they said nothing, it was as if thousands of words were exchanged between them.

[Host, I have a gift for you! It's already in the space.] Xiaomei said mysteriously.

Sally took it out from the System Space, it was a candy wrapped in colored paper, perfect to soothe the throat.

She immediately unwrapped it and ate the rainbow-colored candy ball inside.

Xuanyuan City watched her eating the candy, his gaze deepening, "Yanyan, I want some too!"
