217: Chapter 217 My Husband, You're Being Fierce To Me

[Here we go again.]

[Don't just provoke me for no reason.]

[I'm a real man.]

[Be careful, or I might actually do you right here.]

Li Qing was quite exasperated.

Go ahead and do it then.

Once you've done it, you'll know how good I am.

It's different from the Human Race.

I'll enchant you to death.

Di Youruo gave Li Qing a playful, reproachful glare.

*Buzz.*

Just then, a Nine-Colored Radiance suddenly emerged nearby, transforming into a pillar of light that shot into the sky, stirring the Primordial Qi of heaven and earth.

A faint, refreshing fragrance of lotus seeds permeated the world.

[That direction.]

[It's Gu Beichen.]

[Holy crap.]

[He actually found the Chaos Lotus Essence.]

[You can guard against him today, but you can't guard against him forever.]

[This bastard's cultivation is about to skyrocket again.]

"husband, it seems to be coming from Gu Beichen's direction."

"I'll go and kill him."

A cold light flashed in Di Youruo's eyes.

"No need. Under the hongmeng heavenly dao, you can't kill him."

"If it were in the outer starry sky, it wouldn't be a problem."

Li Qing shook his head.

*Buzz.*

At that moment, the world of the Void Realm began to distort. Li Qing and the others felt as if they were being pulled to their limits, and the scene became abstract and eerie.

[Damn, the Void Realm is about to disappear.]

[Unbelievable.]

[The moment Gu Beichen gets something good, the Heavenly Dao flips the table.]

[It really knows how to play.]

"Watch out!"

A delicate cry rang out from the horizon. Li Qing felt a gust of fragrant wind, and then a warm, jade-like body was in his arms, while another arm was hooked around his.

The next moment, the Void Realm suddenly collapsed. Li Qing felt a dizzying shift of space, and then he appeared in the sky above a mountain range.

He looked down.

A pair of beautiful eyes, like stars, met his gaze.

It was actually Mu Qingyue.

Li Qing: "..."

Mu Qingyue instantly sprang away like a startled fawn.

"I... I'm sorry... I didn't mean for this to happen."

A flush of red appeared on Mu Qingyue's face.

Seeing this, Di Youruo couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Just then, Mu Qingyue suddenly approached Li Qing, cupped his face with her jade-like hands, and stared intently into his eyes with her star-like gaze.

"He hasn't been charmed."

Mu Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Qing: "..."

*Whoosh.*

Mu Qingyue sprang away again like a startled fawn.

"I... I'm sorry..."

Mu Qingyue apologized with a red face.

"Fellow Daoist, the Outer Path Heavenly Demon is the mortal enemy of us Grandmist beings."

"You should stay away from her."

"She is very dangerous."

Mu Qingyue said solemnly.

Di Youruo: "..."

"I'm dangerous?"

"May I ask this righteous Fairy, have I, Di Youruo, ever done anything harmful or atrocious?"

Di Youruo was furious.

She had eaten her fill.

And now she wouldn't let anyone else to the table.

To dare speak ill of me in front of my husband.

Did she really think I, Di Youruo, was someone to be trifled with?

Di Youruo's gaze gradually turned cold.

"Well, no."

"You were sealed as soon as you entered this realm, so you haven't had the chance to do anything atrocious yet."

Mu Qingyue shook her head.

"Then what right do you have to say that about me?"

Di Youruo was almost dying of anger.

"Since ancient times, not a single Outer Path Heavenly Demon has been any good."

Mu Qingyue's expression grew cold.

Di Youruo: "..."

Fine, there really weren't many good demons in the Outer Path Heavenly Demon race.

But that was because resources were scarce; they were starving.

"husband, am I bad?"

Di Youruo looked at Li Qing with a face full of grievance.

Li Qing: "..."

"Bad."

Li Qing nodded with certainty.

Di Youruo: "..."

"How am I bad?"

Di Youruo gnashed her teeth.

Others might not understand me, but don't you?

Are you deliberately trying to upset me?

"What did you just do to me?"

"You tell me, is that bad or not?"

Li Qing winked at Di Youruo.

Di Youruo: "..."

"Oh, husband, you're the bad one."

A flush appeared on Di Youruo's face, and she gave Li Qing a playful glare.

"Fairy Mu, don't worry."

"I'll keep an eye on her."

"Nothing will happen."

Li Qing smiled.

"But..."

"But what? If you dare speak ill of me in front of my husband again..."

"...don't blame me for being rude to you."

Di Youruo said coldly.

"I wouldn't mind gifting you to my husband once more."

"You..."

Mu Qingyue's chest heaved with anger.

"Alright, stop bullying Fairy Mu."

Li Qing glared at Di Youruo.

What?

I'm bullying her?

Is saying a couple of things to her considered bullying?

husband, you're biased.

"husband, you're being mean to me."

Di Youruo was so angry.

I'm ignoring you now.

Hmph.

Di Youruo turned her head away.

[I just told you not to bully Mu Qingyue.]

[How is that being mean to you?]

[Mu Qingyue is a conservative and well-bred woman.]

[If she unintentionally hurts someone, she'll feel guilty and apologize.]

[This kind of personality is truly good, but it's easy to be exploited and bullied.]

[In the original plot, Gu Beichen saw through this and bullied her constantly, using her as the most perfect stepping stone.]

How could he understand me so well?

Mu Qingyue was stunned.

At this moment, Li Qing took a few steps toward Mu Qingyue, pulled out the chaos bead, and pressed it into her hand.

Mu Qingyue stared at Li Qing with wide eyes.

"Take this back and give it to your brother; he shouldn't make things difficult for you then."

Li Qing smiled.

[In the original plot, Gu Beichen took advantage of her and stole her primal yin. When she went home, she was severely punished by her elder brother. If she has a Chaos Supreme Treasure as a gift, she should suffer a bit less.]

He... is considering things for my sake.

At this moment, Mu Qingyue's heart pounded wildly, as if it were about to jump out of her chest.

Beside them, Di Youruo stared at Li Qing with wide eyes.

This scoundrel.

I helped you snatch that chaos bead.

It's bad enough you're giving it to another woman, but you're doing it right in front of me.

You haven't given me anything yet.

I liked that chaos bead too.

"No... it's too precious... I can't take it..."

Mu Qingyue kept shaking her head.

However, in the next moment, Li Qing pulled Mu Qingyue into his arms. Her body stiffened as if she had been hit by an immobilization spell.

Now Di Youruo's eyes went even wider.

"Don't... like this..."

Mu Qingyue's voice was trembling.

"A single hug pays me back."

"You don't owe me anything anymore."

Li Qing said as he released her from the embrace.

Mu Qingyue: "..."

Di Youruo: "..."

*Buzz.*

Just then, the nearby void suddenly rippled, the hongmeng purple qi in the sky was stirred, and in the distant sky, a Nine-Colored Radiance shot up into the heavens.

"There's a treasure."

Di Youruo exclaimed.

[Doesn't look like it.]

[In the original plot, when Gu Beichen swallowed the Chaos Lotus Essence, it looked like this too.]

[Most likely, he's consuming the Chaos Lotus Essence.]

[As the saying goes, after eating, you have to cultivate.]

[And once your strength increases, you have to show off.]

[Otherwise, what kind of child of destiny would he be?]

[Besides, the System hasn't notified me that the drama is over, so the plot isn't finished yet.]

"husband, I smell a lotus fragrance."

Di Youruo said softly.

"It should be Gu Beichen consuming the Chaos Lotus Essence."

Li Qing nodded slightly.

"husband, you haven't given me a gift yet."

"How about you go and snatch that Chaos Lotus Essence and give it to me?"

Di Youruo looked at Li Qing with sparkling eyes.

"Too late. By the time I get there, he'll probably have finished eating it."

Li Qing shook his head.

"Then husband, give yourself to me."

Di Youruo winked at Li Qing.

Li Qing: "..."

"Hmph, I can tell from your expression that you're unwilling."

"Then Youruo will give herself to husband."

"I'm definitely more fragrant than any Chaos Lotus Essence."

Di Youruo whispered into Li Qing's ear.

"It's truly different."

"husband will know once he tries it."

"You'll definitely like it."

Li Qing: "..."
