Chapter 138: Too Tempting
er him, as if coating him in a layer of gold. His whole body emanated an icy aura, a coldness that was both arrogant and terrifying, so chilling that all living things felt a shiver of fear.This perso...At this, the horse turned its head and looked at her with tear-filled eyes. Its bright eyes welled up with two large teardrops. It didn't want to run either; who would want to after being suddenly stabbed It hurt so much!
"Strange, how come Jun Liye didn't follow Did he not understand my hint Or did I run too far that he couldn't catch up" Su Qingying muttered, glancing at the trees behind her.
While she was deep in thought, a gust of white swept in. A pair of verdant jade hands gently encircled Su Qingying's slender waist. Jun Liye sat behind her, and with a smirk, he exhaled hot air on her neck, "Hmm Did the princess miss me"
"Don't be silly, where's your horse" Su Qingying trembled like she had been struck by electricity. Her ears were burning red, and she awkwardly shifted her body. Her face was as red as the rising sun.
Warm fragrance soft jade in her arms, Jun Li's night was already uncomfortable, and this movement of hers felt like adding insult to injury.
Jun Li's night punished her with a cute earlobe, his voice hoarse: "This king naturally came to ride a horse with the princess."
“That bastard!” Su Qingying gritted her teeth, almost letting out a moan.
"Whoa—" At the sound of Jun Li Ye wanting to ride on its back, the white horse refused, neighing in protest.
Su Qingying was overjoyed instantly. She was worried about finding a reason to drive this devil away, so she immediately said: "You see, it's not that I disagree, but this horse can't bear the weight of both of us. So you should go back and find your own horse. I'll wait for you here."
If she rode the same horse as him all the way, she would probably be eaten by him. Even if she couldn't eat tofu, he would eat it all!
"This horse is pretty good, quite plump. Ying'er, do you think roasted horse meat would be tasty" Jun Liye's voice shifted, the extreme gentleness making the white horse shiver involuntarily. It immediately perked up, its spirit soaring to a hundred thousand percent. How could it dare protest now
Oh no, these two humans are terrifying! They keep talking about stewing it or roasting it. Its life must be so miserable!
The eerie blood-red eyes narrowed slightly, Jun Liye was quite satisfied with the white horse's reaction. "Hmm It seems this horse is still somewhat useful, so let's not roast it for now. We're probably not hungry at the moment anyway, Ying'er, what do you think"
"Damn! What else could she possibly say"
Su Qingying angrily slapped the horse's head, "This horse is really a weather vane, turning with the wind! Has it turned into a spirit"
"Ying'er, I remember you gave me an umbrella not long ago. I wonder what this means Hmm" Jun Liye happily hugged her and rubbed his face against her cheek, not forgetting to bring up past grievances to settle the score with her.
The young woman's heart was beating fast, her eyes darting around nervously. "Um, nothing like that," she stammered, "I just thought maybe you didn't have an umbrella over there"
Jun Liye leaned in close to her, gently brushing against her sensitive earlobe. "Oh Is that so" he purred, a hint of malice in his voice. "I seem to recall you doubting my abilities. That's your lower half's happiness at stake, wouldn't you agree Perhaps we should..."
A woman's alarm bell suddenly rang, interrupting his suggestive words in a hurry. She quickly mounted her horse and left, "Ahem, look! There's prey over there. Hold on tight, Xiaobai, let's go!"
If she stayed there any longer, she'd probably be devoured completely!
Jun Liye wouldn't fail to see her intentions. He gave a malicious smile, choosing not to expose her awkwardness. Su Qingying at the front, hearing his laughter, felt even more embarrassed.
My god! For the first time in two lifetimes, she was so embarrassed that she fled in disgrace. She really lost all face!
Unknowingly, the sun gradually sets in the west. The setting sun casts its rays upon the mountain peaks. Mountains stretching for thousands of miles stand tall and imposing, resembling a vast ocean surging with waves.
As the grand ceremony drew to a close, Xuan Yuan Mo rode his steed back laden with spoils, just as he encountered Xuan Yuan Luo Chen walking towards him. He laughed and said, "Brother Emperor, you have quite the harvest this time. In all our previous hunts, Brother Emperor always came first. It seems that this time, your younger brother is going to lose again."
"If you could curb your nightly dalliances with the courtesans, I'm sure you wouldn't lose so often." Xuan Yuan Luo Chen quipped cheerfully as he put away his bow and arrows forged from dark iron.
"Ahem, Your Majesty, how did you end up here It's best not to bring up my little mess." Xuan Yuan Mo awkwardly rubbed his nose and glanced at the sky. He quickly changed the subject, "This time is about right, I should head back."
"Hmm." Xuan Yuan Luo Chen glanced at him, replying with a flat tone. He walked side by side with Xuan Yuan Mo, looking far ahead at the crowds of people. Xuan Yuan Mo spoke again, "Brother Emperor, it seems that people from all countries have almost returned. Our prey is quite considerable."
Upon seeing them emerge, Xuan Yuan Che swiftly rode forward to greet them, "Brother Emperor, you're out."
Xuan Yuan Lu Chen pursed his sexy thin lips, swept a circle with his eyes, frowned and said: "Su Zi Yi, hasn't Jun Li Ye come out"
"Well, Su Ziyi came out half an hour ago. Only Qingying and Jun Li are still missing. Su Ziyi and Shangguan Jinghong are worried, so they took a few people back into the woods. They probably haven't come out yet." Xuan Yuan Che looked worried. He was more concerned about Su Qingying's safety than Su Ziyi. If he wasn't in charge, he would have rushed into the woods to find her long ago.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Mo also frowned imperceptibly. A smile flashed in his mind, a faint sense of chaos arose in his heart, "Since it's getting late and the forest is even more dangerous at night, Your Highness, should we send people to search"
"No need, Jun Li Ye and Su Zi Yi are not ordinary people. They won't be hurt easily, just wait a bit longer. Zhao Tian Qi isn't out yet either." Xuan Yuan Luo Chen wished Su Qing Ying would happen to have some accident. Now that she was missing, it perfectly suited his wishes, saving him from the discomfort of seeing her.
Xuanyuan Che was strongly against his statement, his face solemn. "But the Beasts of Mingyun Mountain are diverse and its mountain paths are treacherous. As night falls, their vision is impaired, and even with great skill, there's a risk to their lives!"
Seeing that Emperor Xuan Yuan Luo Chen's expression had slightly loosened, Emperor Xuan Yuan Mo quickly added fuel to the fire, "Your Majesty, what Xiao Qi said makes sense. Jun Li Ye, Su Zi Yi and the others are all high-ranking individuals with great influence. If something were to happen to them, we wouldn't be able to explain it to Bei Ling and Dong Yue. I hope Your Majesty will reconsider."
Xuan Yuan Lu Chen's eyes darkened, secretly annoyed at himself for being influenced by Su Qing Ying to the point of not even discerning the severity of the situation. He regained his composure and immediately summoned the Commander of the Imperial Guard, "Come here, deliver my imperial decree, dispatch a squad of Imperial Guards to search the mountains. Do not alarm any other countries."
They cannot be too ostentatious, otherwise all countries will be in an uproar. Once chaos ensues, the consequences will be beyond their comprehension.
"Understood!" Watching the Imperial Guard's figures gradually disappear into the forest, Xuan Yuan Che and Xuan Yuan Mo finally let out a breath. But the worry in their eyes remained undiminished.
"Whoosh!" In the depths of the forest, an arrow shot straight into a wild boar, staining the grass red with its fresh blood.
"Yay! I hit it again, Alri. Do you think we'll be first place" Su Qingying cheered, excitedly jumping off her horse to pick up the prey, grinning as she ran to Jun Liye, waving the catch triumphantly.y desire to drink As the saying goes, an hour in spring is worth a thousand gold.” Jun Liye sat down next to her, his pair of eerie blood-red eyes gazing deeply at her without blinking. He said softly...
