Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price

Chapter 548 - 208: Just Call Me Huang

"It’s late at night, you should all go back."

After some discussion, Qiu Zhihe decided everyone should return to their quarters.

Originally, Qin Gengyun stayed with his wife, but now Cheng Qingyu was suddenly suspicious of them, and he also had a "mount" beside him.

If he and his wife were being affectionate in the room, should the Celestial Phoenix Maiden transform into a bird and perch outside?

So tonight, they each returned to their own rooms.

Qin Gengyun said to the Celestial Phoenix Maiden, "Phoenix Maiden, please transform back into the Phoenix Bird Beast."

Although he controlled her life and death, after all, she was the master of Celestial Phoenix Mountain, ranked twelfth on the Beauty Ranking among female cultivators, so he had to be polite.

However, this time the Celestial Phoenix Maiden showed no sign of reluctance and quickly transformed back into the Phoenix Bird Beast.

Liu Su was amazed and couldn’t help wanting to touch it. This time, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden just glared at her but didn’t react as fiercely as before.

Liu Su finally touched the Phoenix bird’s feathers and exclaimed out loud:

"So soft, so smooth, so big, wow!"

Qin Gengyun pulled back his hand and walked out of the house with the Phoenix bird, while Liu Su held her head and followed, mumbling:

"Just now, she was a steadfast maiden, how come she’s so easily touched now?"

She didn’t know the many emotional changes the Celestial Phoenix Maiden went through, and Qin Gengyun was also puzzled. The Celestial Phoenix Maiden was stubbornly fierce, he expected it would take some effort to completely subdue her.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly became so obedient.

The three people and one bird each returned to their rooms. Before parting, Liu Su smiled and teased Qin Gengyun:

"Riding the Phoenix bird by day, sleeping with the Phoenix Maiden by night, you truly have good fortune, sir!"

Qin Gengyun ignored her nonsense and took the Phoenix bird back to his room, seeing her obediently standing behind him, he smiled and said:

"Now it’s just the two of us, you can transform back into human form."

The Phoenix bird nodded, a golden light flashed, and she became a beautiful, sultry woman. She hung her head and didn’t speak, looking entirely obedient.

Her hands tightly clenched the hem of her clothes, tiny veins subtly revealed against her pale hands, exposing her inner anxiety.

Clearly, seeing several "masters’" wives gathered together earlier and now being taken back alone to the master’s room, she naturally had thoughts.

Qin Gengyun remembered what Liu Su had said and couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile, saying to the Celestial Phoenix Maiden:

"Phoenix Maiden, don’t misunderstand, I only have my wife as a woman, having you stay in the room is just to avoid suspicion."

He pointed at the bed: "You sleep there tonight; I will meditate and cultivate on the floor."

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden hesitated for a long time, then suddenly spoke:

"Are you displeased that I’m not as beautiful as them?"

Qin Gengyun laughed and glared at her: "Do you want me to force you?"

"No, no!"

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden shook her head repeatedly, jumping onto the bed and pulling the quilt over her head.

Qin Gengyun chuckled, was about to sit down and cultivate, when a soft voice came from the bed:

"You’re the master; you sleep on the bed, I’ll sleep on the floor."

Qin Gengyun said: "No matter, you flew a thousand miles today, you’re tired, rest early."

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden was silent for a moment, then suddenly pulled back the quilt, got off the bed, and bit her lip saying:

"Are you testing me, to see if I respect you as the master? If I really let you sleep on the floor, you would punish me one day, wouldn’t you?"

Qin Gengyun was taken aback: "Where did you get these wild ideas from?"

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden bit her lip: "Sister told me that people outside are all devious, especially someone like you who suddenly got such a beautiful and powerful... mount, would surely toy with it many ways. Sister said I should accept my fate."

"Don’t worry, I have agreed to serve you as my master, and won’t act disrespectfully, so if you want to do anything, just do it."

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden got off the bed, standing in front of Qin Gengyun, closed her eyes, tightly clenched her hands, her body trembling slightly in a poor, victim-like stance.

Qin Gengyun suddenly stood up, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden flinched, biting her lip nearly till it bled.

But the expected actions did not occur, instead her ears heard some rustling sounds, she curiously opened her eyes.

She saw Qin Gengyun laying a sleeping mat on the ground, saying to the Celestial Phoenix Maiden:

"Alright then, I’ll sleep on the bed, you sleep on the mat, are you reassured now?"

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden stared blankly at Qin Gengyun, seeing him get onto the bed, and still smiling at her:

"Sleep now."

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden responded dumbly with an "oh," lying on the soft mat, her innocent eyes filled with great confusion.

Sister said all men would covet her, why is this one so restrained and polite?

She also thought of Xia Qinglian’s appearance and figure, then compared herself, seemingly finding an answer.

Right, Xia Qinglian asked her to keep her identity secret.

So, doesn’t the master know that she is Xia Qinglian?

When she gets intimate with the master, what appearance does she use to serve him?

Huh, why do I call "master" so smoothly?

Zhu Huang’Er, you truly are shameless!

She paused hesitantly then spoke: "From now on, how about you call me... Huang."

The bed delivered a gentle response: "Okay."

The Everlasting Lamp in the room extinguished, quickly sinking into silence.

Outside, Qiu Zhihe nodded satisfactorily.

She watched for a while longer, observing her husband and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden both asleep, she set up a Guardian Array around the room, and then left.

A moment later, she returned, pondered briefly, then added a Spirit Testing Array.

If her husband and the Celestial Phoenix Maiden make any moves, the array will tremor, alerting her.

Yes, I do trust my husband, this is just in case.

Qiu Zhihe nodded, finally leaving at ease.

On the other side of the mountaintop, where the Commanding Disciple resides.

Wei Wan sat in a dark room, cold sweat on her forehead and body.

Once again, she had startled awake from a nightmare, dreaming of her biological parents selling her to a mysterious person, who then fed her as an infant to a Demonic Beast.

She held her head, painfully muttering:

"Father, Mother, why did you sell me away back then? Where are you now?"

The nearby room flickered with candlelight.

Su Xin stood by the window, staring blankly at the thick night outside.

She couldn’t sleep either, because upon closing her eyes, she remembered what Cheng Qingyu had said to her yesterday.

"Senior Sister is gentle and dignified, kind and pure, no wonder your parents protected you so well..."

But the master said I am an abandoned orphan, picked up and brought back to Zhenyang Mountain.

I don’t have parents.

Why would Junior Sister Cheng say that?

Does she know who my parents are?

Why has the master never mentioned it to me?

After a long while, Su Xin sighed softly:

"Master, this journey to the South Demon is so bizarre, I truly don’t know what to do."
