98: Chapter 98 Are there still divine maidens on Yuanchu Mountain?

Led by the child, the three of them soon arrived at a secluded little courtyard. Outside the courtyard stood a few withered trees, one of which was still laden with fruit, looking very beautiful in its redness.

"Persimmons, right?" Kang Dalei asked, pointing at the fruit on the tree.

The little boy nodded, his expression slightly awkward as he said:

"Young Master has a sharp eye; they are indeed persimmons, though they still need a few more days to ripen."

The child looked quite nervous while speaking. Kang Dalei saw through his little scheme at a glance and said indifferently:

"Rest assured, I won't take them. Even if I did, I would pay for them."

As he spoke, he walked over to a spot and silently began to doze off.

Only by hiding here could he avoid those noble families who usually looked down on others; they wouldn't deign to come to such a place, and thus wouldn't come to annoy him.

However, while the noble families wouldn't come to annoy him, Bai Xuaner certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass.

She grabbed Kang Dalei by the collar, demanding an explanation.

Then, with a roll of her eyes and a kick of her feet, before the curse that was on the tip of her tongue could even be uttered, she passed out completely.

"Why is there so much nonsense every single day?"

Withdrawing his hand-blade, Kang Dalei continued to lie down and sleep.

At midnight, a faint sound of footsteps woke Kang Dalei from his dream.

With a swift grapple, a woman with a beautiful figure appeared before him.

"It's you!" Kang Dalei was quite surprised.

He hadn't expected the person before him to actually be that disciple from Yuanchu Mountain from the morning.

The woman's face was flushed red from Kang Dalei's grip, but her eyes were extremely alluring.

"Marquis, do you really want to strangle this servant to death?"

Kang Dalei released her.

"What are you doing here?"

The woman smiled, first finding a clean spot to sit down, then looking at the surrounding environment with an expression of disdain, saying:

"Why did the Marquis choose a place like this? If you are looking for a place to stay, this servant has a mansion in Yuanchu City that has been sitting empty."

"Enough, you had better just tell me why a woman like you came in the middle of the night to this underground city, a place even ordinary rich people wouldn't deign to step foot in."

"The Marquis is truly lacking in wit. If this servant said that she is willing to serve you for the night, I wonder if the Marquis would be willing?"

The woman extended a slender finger, gently sliding it across Kang Dalei's chest, her extremely charming face filled with an indescribable affectation.

Truth be told, at that moment, Kang Dalei really felt aroused.

This woman was really damn proactive!

However, as a dignified Marquis-level expert, what kind of woman had he not seen before?

"What kind of person do you take me for?"

"Ah!"

The woman thought he was going to refuse, but then she heard Kang Dalei continue:

"I am a dignified Marquis, surely it can't just be one night!"

Seeing that her whole body was about to be pulled into Kang Dalei's embrace, the woman giggled incessantly.

"Giggle, giggle, however long the Marquis wants this servant to accompany you, this servant can accompany you for that long."

"That's more like it."

Kang Dalei pulled the woman into his arms and was just about to start acting like a rogue when a light cough from behind him caused his hand, which was reaching for the woman's cheek, to instantly freeze in mid-air.

"Kang Dalei, you really can't change your dog-like nature, can you?"

Bai Xuaner had woken up, though no one knew when.

"Do you even know who she is? And you're already hitting on her."

With another scolding, Bai Xuaner was truly furious.

Her pretty face was now completely clouded over.

Kang Dalei, however, was unconcerned and waved his hand, saying:

"As if I wouldn't know who she is—a beauty, obviously. Look at this figure, this appearance, this skin, this expression—how gorgeous. She's much more beautiful than you, isn't she?"

"You."

Bai Xuaner stomped her feet in anger again, and looking at the woman in Kang Dalei's arms, she couldn't help but be incensed.

At this moment, the woman covered her mouth and laughed, looking at Bai Xuaner as she said:

"Being able to be favored by the Marquis is this servant's good fortune. If the eldest miss is also willing, this servant wouldn't mind serving the Marquis in bed together with you."

"You." Bai Xuaner was completely broken by these words from the woman.

She was already unhappy watching Kang Dalei hit on other women, and now, being mocked by a junior of the Danyun Realm, Bai Xuaner's spoiled young miss temper immediately flared up.

"I, Bai Xuaner, do not need you to tell me what to do."

With a thought, her Great Sun Realm pressure instantly pinned the woman in place, unable to move.

"Even if you are from Yuanchu Mountain, killing you is merely a matter of lifting a finger for me."

The woman showed disdain, her seductive face unable to hide her arrogance.

"Eldest Miss, the Prince is already at that age, yet you are still so arrogant. Are you really not afraid that after the Prince passes, you will be left unable to hold your own?"

Bai Xuaner pressed her finger down further, her chest already heaving.

"How my Bai family fares is none of your concern, servant. Do you think that just because you can latch onto Kang Dalei, this bastard will treat you well? He is nothing but a bastard."

As she spoke, Bai Xuaner looked at Kang Dalei again, her eyes filled with unconcealable disappointment and grievance.

But after looking for a long time, Bai Xuaner suddenly released the pressure on the woman and ran out of the little courtyard in a huff.

"Kang Dalei, I hate you."

Because just now, Kang Dalei had shown no expression at all, as if they were complete strangers.

After Bai Xuaner ran out, Kang Dalei immediately helped up the woman who had fallen to the ground.

"Are you alright?"

The woman shook her head, her body unable to help but lean against Kang Dalei.

"Marquis, would you like to come with this servant to my mansion to rest now? This servant will definitely satisfy the Marquis."

Kang Dalei smiled knowingly and walked out of the residence.

During the time they left Bu Ye City, they saw Bai Xuaner sitting by the side of the road crying. Bai Xuaner also saw Kang Dalei and the woman; seeing the two of them holding hands and being particularly intimate, she couldn't help but burst into tears again.

"Kang Dalei, you, you..."

While cursing Kang Dalei in her heart, Bai Xuaner didn't know what to say aloud.

After all, their relationship hadn't reached that point at all.

It was just that Kang Dalei's actions tonight made this eldest miss, who had been pampered since childhood, feel a sense of humiliation and unwillingness.

"Marquis, she..."

"Don't worry about her, let's go."

The two left Bu Ye City, and Bai Xuaner curled up into a ball.

That night was destined not to be peaceful.

But some were happy, some were sorrowful, some were helpless, and some were worried.

The next day, Kang Dalei walked out of the woman's courtyard, and outside the door stood Bai Xuaner, who had been there all night.

Seeing Kang Dalei come out, Bai Xuaner had intended to speak to him, but upon seeing the woman following closely behind him, she lowered her head again.

"If there's nothing else, don't follow me. If you still remember the matters between us, then obediently wait for me at the little courtyard in Bu Ye City; otherwise, you won't even have a final chance."

"Marquis, please."

At this time, the people from Yuanchu Mountain had also arrived.

Kang Dalei didn't speak again, instead following the group and leaving Yuanchu City.

A day later, in a pavilion on Yuanchu Mountain, Kang Dalei was settled in.

Two handmaidens walked in carrying tea, and one of them was also holding a purple robe.

"Marquis, Master is still discussing important matters with several Princes. He ordered us to come first to serve the Marquis in your bath."

"Your Yuanchu Mountain is so high-class now, even having Divine Venerable Handmaidens."

Kang Dalei eyed their appearances; their figures were absolutely stunning, and he couldn't help but praise them in his heart.

The two women didn't show displeasure like those previous Yuanchu Mountain disciples; instead, they began to undress him.

"Master said that we must serve the Marquis well."

"Serve? In what way are you to serve?"

Kang Dalei cast a scrutinizing gaze at the two women again.
