She only realized that all the strength in her body had left her, as if even her bones had turned jelly. Not only did this pinch not hurt him, even her fingers felt injured.
Jun Mo Xie chuckled and stood up without the slightest shame. Miao Xiao Miao instantly covered her face and turned away.
Jun Mo Xie got off the bed and slowly put on his clothes as he chuckled evilly. “This is the consequences of questioning this Young Master! If you still dare to defy me next time, this Young Master will not let you off! It is already a minor punishment for your great crime today!”
Miao Xiao Miao squirmed in defiance, but she felt a wave of sleepiness. .h.i.t her. She really no longer had any strength to retort back… the gentle sun rays shone into the room, it was already afternoon… It seemed like the ten-hour long ‘invasion’ had truly left this beauty extremely exhausted and worn out.
This scoundrel is really a beast ah! Not knowing how to show any leniency and treasuring a girl! No, even a beast is not this tyrannical!
With this her current situation, she could forget about getting off the bed for the next two days. In her embarra.s.sment, Miao Xiao Miao couldn’t help but feel a tinge of fear. Looks like this husband with his superior physique of a Saint Venerable expert is already like this, then how could anyone else compare…
Just as she mulled in her thoughts, she dozed off just like that… Not even realizing that after such an intense… ‘battle’… her internal injuries did not aggravate, there was not even the slightest bit of pain… as if the injuries had already healed by themselves unknowingly to her… Forget it… as if she had fallen short of bizarre happenings for the past couple of days…
Jun Mo Xie was still waiting for her to reply, but he wasn’t expecting this la.s.s to just fall asleep just like that…
“That’s quick…” Young Master Jun shook his head and walked out feeling relaxed from head to toe. But there was something that was troubling him: Miao Xiao Miao had the Xuan Yin Female Body, one of the top few types of physiques for females who cultivate. But why was it that there was absolutely nothing special?
They often say that if the girl’s body is too Yin, and my cultivation is high too… but what happened here? I undoubtedly felt good, but I did not see that so-called ‘surprise’. Could it be that I’m not skilled enough? Or that that ‘surprise’ is merely a rumour!
Looking at the sleeping beauty on the bed, Young Master Jun stroked his chin and shook his head. It doesn’t seem like my skills are inadequate… Looks like there must be some trick to this…
Young Master Jun walked out feeling extremely refreshed, but he had barely walked a couple of steps when he spotted a shapely figure quietly standing at the turn, pressing her small eyes against the wall, as if she was trying to hear something…
To think that there is someone eavesdropping!
Looking at how focused that la.s.s is, she must have been listening for a long time…
Jun Mo Xie was feeling both angered and amused. With a whoosh , he appeared behind this person and grabbed her ear. “What are you doing? What mischief are you up to again?”
This figure was none other than Miss Dugu Xiao Yi!
In the entire Evil Monarch Manor, it seemed that aside from her, there was no other women who would be capable of doing something like eavesdropping…
“Ah~~” Miss Dugu shrieked upon being discovered and interrogated, jumping in shock. But the next moment, she felt her entire body going weak…
“I… I… I… I’m catching crickets, hehehe… catching crickets…” Dugu Xiao Yi squatted on the ground, her face completely red, observing and looking intently at the corner of the wall…
“Ha? Catching crickets? Then you will have to wait for a couple of months! Are there such things during this period? Crickets? You’re really good at coming up with excuses…”
Dugu Xiao Yi had a weird expression on her face, an intoxicated look in her eyes as she avoided his eyes. She kept her legs tightly squeezed together as she slowly squirmed along, as if she did not hear what Jun Mo Xie said. She barked out in stutters: “Y-you… you are spouting nonsense, isn’t that a cricket… cricket… I found it! Cricket… don’t you run…”
With a whoosh, she quickly made the turn around the corner and instantly vanished. This la.s.s might not have a high cultivation currently, but even Young Master Jun was a little taken aback by her skill…
Then a long sigh of relief could be heard from round the corner, then it was the sounds of someone running away in a fl.u.s.tered panic… the la.s.s and ran away…
“En? Cricket?…” Jun Mo Xie tilted his head and clicked his tongue. He twitched his ears, as if feeling that something was off here. Upon thinking about it, he couldn’t help but mumble to himself. “I only noticed today that the la.s.s has already grown up ah… watch how I go and catch the mature cricket you are tonight…”
Miao Zhan, Miao Dao, and Miao Jian, were seated in the biggest hall of the Evil Monarch Manor with Mo Wu Dao, Xi Ruo Chen and Huyan Ao Bo, glaring at each other.
These few representatives of the strongest forces in the world had already been sitting here for a whole day!
Since that strange sight at dawn had vanished, these people had gathered here; with the goal of speaking with Jun Mo Xie. But for some ‘important’ matters, Manor Lord Jun vanished quickly… this had left all these ‘experts’ waiting in discomfort…
The tea was excellent tea, but even the most excellent tea was unable to withstand being boiled over and over again. This pot of tea had already been boiled for almost fifty times, it was as bland as water now… Of course, this place didn’t offer that sort of high-quality treatment of Ancient Tea Fragrance Herb for its guests…
And the result of this sort of hospitality was that even these top-tier experts couldn’t handle it and had to go to the toilet numerous times. Even the strongest expert was still human, there was ultimately a limit to how much liquid one could hold…
All the other smaller and weaker factions had bid their farewell in the morning. Since they had already achieved their goal of appearing familiar and had gained unexpected benefits, this was not a wasted trip already. But they ultimately had their own matters to attend to, and since there were no big matters, they’d have to take their leave.
Besides, they had to fear every minute and second about the safety of their lives while staying here. Might as well leave earlier to get a peace of mind.
Everyone let out a long sigh of relief when they left the Evil Monarch Manor… We made it out alive…
Naturally Mo Wu Dao and the rest were more busy! Their desire to leave was even greater!
But they had not accomplished their main objective for coming here. Leave? Where do we leave for?
Even if Evil Monarch Manor really chased them out, they would not leave.
As to the trio of the Miao Family, they had a great gain from this trip, but they had still not fully settled the matter with Young Master Jun, so naturally they’d be unwilling to leave like this. Besides, the Evil Monarch Manor was now the home of the Miao Family’s in-laws, so how was it not their own homes!
As such, each bearing their own intentions, they just remained seated like this. In the beginning, they were still chatting away. But after several hours, Miao Zhan had already reminisced the past until the present, everyone also had boasted of their own heroic legends, but there was still no sight of Young Master Jun.
As everyone was trying to look for conversations, there were plenty of loopholes after a while, giving rise to a joke. Miao Dao even interrupted Huyan Ao Bo who was talking non-stop with great satisfaction with a deep frown. “Didn’t you say that back then, your neighbour’s father’s elder brother’s wife’s son’s uncle’s aunt’s husband’s sister’s father-in-law’s G.o.dson’s sister-in-law’s sister was taken away to be a concubine by a Sky Xuan expert when she was selling vegetables?”
Gossip is gossip, and that was all there was to gossip. And gossiping was a little disgraceful of their status, and everyone was mindful of their status…
“What is Jun Mo Xie doing?” Miao Dao stood up and walked about the hall, his irritation was obvious in his tone. “At a crucial timing like this, to practice for so long?”
The answer they had gotten from Mei Xue Yan was. “Mo Xie is practicing! Please wait!”
But who would have expected that Jun Mo Xie’s ‘practice’ would last from morning to sunset! It had been almost ten hours!
But everyone understood that it was common to practice for even a month when the inspiration hits sometimes. Their only worry right now was: when is this fellow going to practice until?
There are only two months left until the War for Seizing the Heavens, if this fellow doesn’t come out of seclusion by then, then it’ll really be a big problem…
Not mentioning anyone else who could last for this sort of duration, perhaps this sort of stamina was enough to make 99.9999% of the men in the world to feel inferior and ashamed to the point they’d kill themselves out of frustration. Just this sort of arrogance was unprecedented.
A feat that was truly unprecedented and impossible to be surpa.s.sed!
