Chapter 238 Differences Between Men and Women
"That's true, but I'd also love to see the Shangguan family suffer a setback."
Yu Nian'er didn't want to talk about that bitch Yun Fuzhao on this joyous day. She turned her head to look at the man standing there with a very low profile and said respectfully, "Thank you for your help, Ghost Lord. If there is anything Nian'er can do for you in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."
Que Yu smiled and said, “Miss Yu, you don’t need to be so polite. I just don’t want to see the Xuan Tian Sect being suppressed by the Wuya Sword Sect. After all, we are allies.”
Yu Nian'er smiled, her beautiful eyes sparkling, "I will prove to Lord Ghost King that your choice was not wrong."
Que Yu nodded, "Of course I believe you. Miss Yu is exceptionally talented and will surely ascend to immortality one day."
Praised like that, Yu Nian'er's cheeks flushed. "You flatter me, sir."
"Nian'er."
Wen Yan came to find his sweetheart as soon as he came out of seclusion, but he did not expect to see such a scene. The two were chatting and laughing, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
A dark shadow in his mind sneered: "This ghost lord really doesn't take you seriously. He dares to openly flirt with your girl..."
With his embellished words, Wen Yan became increasingly displeased and lost her pleasant expression.
He strode towards Yu Nian'er, creating distance between them.
Upon seeing him, Yu Nian'er's face lit up with surprise and delight. "Brother Wen Yan, you've come out of seclusion?"
Wen Yan patted her head, his expression softening slightly. "Yes. How could I miss your spirit beast's rebirth?"
After saying that, he looked at Que Yu beside him and said, "It seems that Lord Ghost King is unaware of the concept of the difference between men and women."
Que Yu was taken aback, then realized what he meant and immediately burst into laughter. He laughed so hard that tears welled up in his eyes; this was the biggest joke he had heard all day.
Yu Nian'er and Wen Yan were both startled by his exaggerated laughter.
After a long while, Que Yu finally stopped laughing and gently wiped the corner of her eye with her fingertip. "Sorry, I couldn't control myself for a moment."
He said to Wen Yan, "Miss Yu and I are completely innocent, please don't misunderstand, Mr. Wen."
Yu Nian'er blushed, belatedly realizing that she had stood too close to the Ghost Lord, making him jealous.
She tugged shyly at Wen Yan's sleeve, stood on tiptoe, and gently kissed his cheek. She said bashfully, "I only like you."
Wen Yan was finally satisfied.
Que Yu observed their interaction, her smile deepening. Her long eyelashes drooped, lost in thought.
……
After the beast tide, the demon race suffered heavy casualties, with only a few scattered demons attending the meeting organized by Qi Huai.
In the entire demon realm, only the Wan'er Rabbit Clan and the Qingqiu Fox Clan emerged unscathed from this beast tide.
Zhi Heng was furious when he saw Yun Fuzhao and Bai Xinxin. "How dare you show your face here!"
Upon seeing him, Yun Fuzhao raised an eyebrow. "You're really lucky to be alive."
This one is not dead.
Zhi Heng was furious. "You did this on purpose! You knew there would be a beast tide, yet you still made us attend the Spring Banquet!"
It took him a tremendous amount of effort to escape from that terrifying horde of beasts.
He also lost a hand as a result.
It's all because of those two despicable women in front of me!
Yun Fuzhao never imagined there could be someone in the world with a thicker skin than her. "Wow, don't you laugh at yourself for saying that? Weren't you even there when we warned you?"
What's that tucked between the ears? Is it a taboo for Hui people?
Zhi Heng choked, unable to utter a single word after being rebuked by her.
Compared to his shamelessness, the other demons remained silent.
They were filled with regret for not listening to Bai Xinxin; if they had, their tribe would not have suffered such severe losses.
The jackal clan member was the first to speak: "I will never say that rabbits are useless again." He looked at Bai Xinxin, "I apologize for my past recklessness and ignorance."
Bai Xinxin was extremely surprised. The Jackal Clan looked down on their tribe the most, and they couldn't stand not causing trouble for the Rabbit Clan every day. They were always high and mighty, and had never spoken like this before.
The other demons also took the opportunity to apologize to Bai Xinxin.
Only Zhi Heng stubbornly refused to yield, looking as if he would rather die than submit.
Bai Xinxin heard them apologize one by one, and after her initial surprise, she showed no other expression. She calmly said, "I do not accept your apologies."
She pointed to her left ear, "Because of your violence, I will never hear again in this ear. Do you think you can erase the harm you have done to the rabbit race with a few perfunctory apologies?"
In fact, everything you suffered during this beast tide was entirely your own fault. I haven't applauded; I've already done more than enough.
The air was deathly silent.
Yun Fuzhao was surprised that Bai Xinxin, who looked so gentle, spoke with such power.
She appreciates it.
When Qi Huai arrived, he keenly sensed that something was amiss. However, he didn't pay much attention to it and simply explained the purpose of summoning them today.
As he had expected, none of the demons objected.
After this experience, they understood that there was no good end to opposing Yun Fuzhao. She was a ruthless person who could fight her way out of a beast horde all by herself.
Previously, they were only afraid of the dragon in her hands, but after seeing the corpses of spirit beasts scattered all over the ground, they gained a deeper understanding of this girl who looked delicate and fair-skinned.
When faced with a beast tide, everyone else would run for their lives, but she went straight for it and won...
The day trip to the demon realm was thus decided.
"Sect Master Yun."
Before leaving, Bai Xinxin suddenly grabbed Yun Fuzhao.
"what happened?"
Bai Xinxin looked left and right to make sure all the other demons had left before whispering in her ear, "I'll show you something."
Yun Fuzhao was really acting mysteriously. He turned his head and said something to Qi Huai, then left.
"We came across an unusual place while we were digging underground caves."
Upon hearing this, Yun Fuzhao perked up, "Where?"
"You'll see when you come with me."
Bai Xinxin led her to Wan'er, and then into her own room. She looked around cautiously.
Then he closed the door, moved the huge water vat leaning against the corner of the wall, revealing a bottomless cave.
"Please come with me."
This time, Yun Fuzhao was careful and had a formation in hand, so that she could teleport away immediately if anything went wrong.
Fortunately, nothing went wrong along the way.
"This is it."
She pointed to the large black door in front of her, "This looks a bit like an ancient tomb. I guess it might be the burial place of some powerful demon clan member."
The gate was old and worn; upon closer inspection, one could still see the carved patterns of birds and animals on it. It had been dug recently, and still smelled of earth.
Bai Xinxin said, "I knew something was wrong when we dug this far, so I immediately sealed it off."
Yun Fuzhao approached, "We can try to see if we can open it."
It might just hold an unparalleled opportunity.
Bai Xinxin nodded, "I can't open it with my own strength, so I asked Sect Master Yun for help."
"Then why don't you go to Qi Huai? He's better at opening doors."
“No,” Bai Xinxin smiled, “I trust you more than him.”
