Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1083: The Little Princess Has Fallen for the Soul-suppressing Beast
"Elder Ye, that’s not what I meant. The Little Princess has grown up under everyone’s watch. Of course, I wish she could live her whole life without knowing the ways of the world and happily remain a princess. But you know that’s impossible. In the Cat Demon Clan, she is the only princess. Sooner or later, she will have to take on the role of Clan Leader. Some things, even if she doesn’t want to experience them, she has no choice."
Actually, what the Clan Leader said wasn’t wrong.
Because she is a princess.
"That also depends on the situation. Suddenly giving her such a heavy burden, can she handle it?"
"..."
You just mentioned that the Little Princess’s parents died in battle to protect the entire Demon Realm. Do you want her to also..."
"Elder Ye, you should be mindful of your words." Elder Tian did not expect his proposal, originally for the good of Wen Xiao’ai, to be refuted by Elder Ye like this.
"Elder Ye, I know you care for the Little Princess, but what Elder Tian said is not without reason. Let’s not get too agitated. Right now, we can’t have internal disputes among ourselves." Another elder quickly intervened to mediate.
Elder Ye also realized he had spoken too harshly.
He calmed down a bit, softened his tone, and said:
"It’s not yet the time for a child like her to shoulder such burdens. Let’s stop arguing. We’ll listen to the Medicine King on this matter, and in the future, let’s try not to mention the name Nie Jiuque in front of the Little Princess."
The elders felt helpless, knowing that saying more would be pointless.
"I’ll make a trip to Phoenix Valley." Elder Tian said, then turned and left.
Seeing the atmosphere was tense and the matter discussed, the other elders also gradually found excuses to leave.
"Medicine King, take a rest. At midnight tonight, go to Ye Qi’s place."
Elder Ye whispered to Feng Liyan, preparing to leave, but Feng Liyan quickly called out to him.
"What’s the matter?"
Feng Liyan knew that Elder Ye wanted him to go to Ye Qi’s place tonight to discuss the matter of Nie Jiuque, but he couldn’t hold it in any longer.
He needed someone to discuss this with.
"Elder Ye, please stay."
"Is there something else?"
Feng Liyan nodded slightly but didn’t rush to speak.
After the other elders left, he finally looked at Elder Ye.
"There is something, and it’s very serious."
Seeing Feng Liyan’s troubled expression, Elder Ye sensed something was wrong.
Feng Liyan tried to organize his words but still didn’t know how to say it.
"What exactly is going on?"
Seeing Feng Liyan’s grave expression, Elder Ye became even more apprehensive.
"The Little Princess met a human during her trip to the Human Realm, and she has developed feelings for that human..."
After a while, Feng Liyan finally said this.
"Is it the one the Little Princess was just talking about, the one who took care of her for more than half a year?"
"Yes." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
"That’s nothing. First loves are natural for a young girl like the Little Princess. It’s a sign that she’s growing up, but there’s no chance between her and that human. Just make sure Ye Qi doesn’t find out."
Elder Ye initially thought it was something terrifying.
Although, this matter is quite poignant.
To think his son, Ye Qi, is so excellent and treats Xiao’ai so well, having known each other for centuries, yet Xiao’ai has no such feelings for Ye Qi.
"It’s not as simple as you think. The Little Princess truly likes that human. It’s not just a mere fancy. To save that human’s friend, she defied destiny, expending a century’s worth of power to trade her life for another. If she did all that just for that person’s friend, imagine the depth of her feelings for that human."
"That girl, she’s being reckless. How can she not cherish her own life?"
Upon hearing this, the first concern Elder Ye had was for Wen Xiao’ai.
It showed how much he truly cares for her.
"That’s not the most important thing. The crucial point is... that human is the reincarnation of the Soul-suppressing Beast."
