Chapter 939: Chapter 939
Lady Yuji and Seductive Lady stood opposed from afar, one on the left and the other on the right.
Though they didn’t see eye to eye, and their words were filled with gunpowder, it was only verbal sparring; no real fighting had occurred.
"Yu Ji, Seductive Lady, what are your identities?"
"If there’s a conflict or disagreement, can’t you communicate privately? Must you quarrel here in this void?"
"If people with ulterior motives see this scene and spread it across the Primordial world, how will they view our Demon Palace?"
"Everyone, say less and be quiet immediately."
On one side, Emperor Tianyin looked at the two women in front of him, feeling an extreme headache.
Though, in terms of strength, he was much stronger than Seductive Lady and Yu Ji, it didn’t mean he could confront both women directly!
If he couldn’t resort to force, he could only reason with them.
But would reasoning with women work?
At this moment, Emperor Tianyin, in order to dissuade them, could only use a slightly heavier tone.
As a result, Seductive Lady and Yu Ji instantly stopped bickering, one wearing a face full of resentment, the other with an icy glare, both turning their eyes towards Emperor Tianyin together.
"Yu Ji, after working together for so many years, I naturally know who you are as a person."
"To say that you would ignore our Demon Palace’s interests for personal gain, I absolutely would not believe it."
"Although Golden Dawn Island has never truly come under the glory of our Demon Palace, there must be some reasons for this."
"Yu Ji, you came to this place yourself and didn’t handle the matter, so there must be a reason you have!"
The things that cannot be obtained are always the best.
Admiring Lady Yuji for so many years, trying to curry favor in front of her but hardly earning a smile; though such is the case, Emperor Tianyin still finds joy in it.
Among the two women in front of him, it’s obvious that Lady Yuji holds a more important place in his heart.
With a smile, he explained to her for a while until her expression slightly softened, then Emperor Tianyin looked towards Seductive Lady and said, "Seductive Lady, rumors that spread with no basis are hard to believe."
"I trust Yu Ji’s character, and there must be some misunderstanding between you two."
"Now that Li Xuanfeng is already severely wounded and has fled, our mission this time can be considered a success. Staying here further holds no meaning."
"Let’s find a suitable place, and I’ll brew some fine tea for you both. While drinking tea, have a good chat. After all, misunderstandings can be resolved by talking!"
Clearly wanting to play the mediator, Emperor Tianyin was much more relaxed in front of Seductive Lady.
While speaking, he took a few steps to Seductive Lady’s side, grabbed her hand, and whispered in her ear.
No one knew if Emperor Tianyin was whispering some cheesy sweet nothings...
But in just a few breaths, Seductive Lady, who had been sulking, was giggling at his words.
"A pair of adulterous lovers..." Lady Yuji, observing the scene, kept her face cold, but cursed inwardly several times.
The affairs between Emperor Tianyin and Seductive Lady might be unknown to most, but how could Yu Ji be in the dark?
Nevertheless, it was someone else’s business, unrelated to her, so she naturally wouldn’t meddle unnecessarily.
Watching Emperor Tianyin and Seductive Lady gather not far away, she simply chose not to see or think, not even bothering to say goodbye as she soared towards the distance with a wave of her large sleeve.
"Yu Ji, wait for me!"
"Tianyin, once again leaving me to the side, don’t expect me to care about you again!"
Noticing Yu Ji’s departure, Tianyin seemed a bit anxious; he pushed Seductive Lady away and gave chase in the direction Yu Ji had left.
As for the remaining Seductive Lady, she stamped her feet in frustration, casting a wistful glance at Tianyin, now just a small black dot in the distance, before biting her silver teeth and disappearing as well.
Atop the Black Water Immortal Mountain, on the highest of cliffs.
"The battle between Quasi-Saints is really just like that."
"I would have thought that the fight between the folks from the Demon Palace and Li Xuanfeng, even if it didn’t come to life and death, would at least be more intense compared to this anticlimactic end."
"A snake left alive will bring endless troubles later; this is an old truth."
"Since they’ve already fought, why didn’t those people from the Demon Palace be more decisive? Even if not to kill him directly, they could have at least caught Li Xuanfeng alive!"
If it were me, I could determine victory within a few breaths—why drag it out so long?"
With a hint of disdain, Chen Hai stretched lazily, standing up from his chair.
With a casual flick of his hand, the simple tea table made of rocks turned to dust, while the chair beneath him was stashed away into his storage space.
Within the Mirror Moon Space, each time he fought the simulated Quasi-Saints, he always resolved it in just moments.
Only when he challenged ten Quasi-Saints at once would it take slightly longer.
Accustomed to such high-efficiency combat, watching the battle between Li Xuanfeng and the Demon Palace members felt like children playing house, hardly stirring his interest.
Leaving the cliff for a few days, Chen Hai didn’t choose to return to the Cultivation Hall for seclusion.
Although after his wife’s body underwent a transformation, her certain needs became insatiable, like a bottomless pit, unable to be filled.
But she also knows that strength matters most for a man; the stronger Chen Hai is, the more it benefits her.
Having not fulfilled his marital duties for a long time, Chen Hai was now full of energy. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
Especially after the battle above the Nine Heavens had concluded, when Lady Yuji’s graceful figure appeared in his perception, it stirred a restless feeling within him.
"They say a day of marriage leads to a hundred days of grace; even though Lady Yuji and I only spent less than a day together, in reality, it counts as several days, doesn’t it?"
"Having come to my territory, she left so directly, not even staying a while for us to reminisce."
"A woman’s heart is as hard to fathom as the seabed; what does she mean by this? It hasn’t been that long since that day, has she forgotten everything already?"
"Even if in the company of others, she could still find an excuse to send Tianyin and Seductive Lady away and come meet me secretly..."
Several days passed in peace around Black Water Immortal Mountain.
The great battle between Li Xuanfeng and the Quasi-Saints from the Demon Palace seemed to stir no waves in this region.
This outcome, while leaving Chen Hai slightly relieved, also brought a touch of disappointment and melancholy to his heart.
"It’s been several days, if the people from the Demon Palace haven’t returned, they likely won’t come back here."
"Forget it, I’ll just quietly go into seclusion and focus on refining Golden Dawn Island into my Grotto Heaven."
"As for all those chaotic matters, I can’t be bothered; I will let fate take its course!"
After some leisurely days, Chen Hai finally began moving toward the location of the Cultivation Hall once more.
