89: Huang Qingxue's flag

"You..."

The sudden scolding made Xuan Ling's delicate body tremble as she involuntarily looked at Ji Li, who was being held in his arms.

Before Ji Li could speak;

Chen Qingxuan spoke again, "What are you looking at her for? Still dazed... Believe it or not, I'll tie you up in a room to watch later?"

"What did you say?"

Hearing these words, Xuan Ling felt as if she had been struck by a bolt from the blue.

At this moment, Ji Li also paled in shock. "Xiao Ling, go pick them up quickly... He really is capable of doing such a thing."

"I..."

Xuan Ling's mind went blank;

Especially with Ji Li's agreement, her heart raced with fear... By the time she snapped out of it, the overturned table and items had already been returned to their original places.

"Why are you still standing here? Get out and close the door."

Chen Qingxuan ordered.

"You... Hmph!"

Xuan Ling hesitated to speak;

But after glancing at Ji Li, who was held in his arms and had long since lost her prestige as the Demon Lord, she finally bit her silver teeth and turned to leave.

Ji Li had a helpless expression. "Brother Xuan, why are you being so fierce?"

"How am I being fierce? Didn't you see how disrespectful she was?" Chen Qingxuan said dismissively. "If I were truly being fierce, I would have taken her as a bed-warming maid long ago... It's only because she's not that pretty."

At this moment,

Xuan Ling, who had just walked out of the hall, paused her footsteps upon hearing the voice inside. She cast a resentful glance back at the hall doors.

"You dead Bitch... I'll use a lifetime of being single to wish you premature ejaculation!"

...Several days later.

The news that Chen Qingxuan was hiding in the Demon Emperor Palace spread throughout the entire Cangyun Continent.

On this day;

Countless experts of the Heavenly Dao Alliance from various factions gathered in the main hall of the Hundred Flowers Tower, which had now become the alliance's base.

"I didn't expect that evil cultivator to actually run off to the Western Regions."

"When I saw Demonic Power on him back then, I knew he was closely related to the Yao Race. This old man truly has divine foresight!"

"The Demon Emperor Palace is notoriously hostile towards our Human Race. How did Chen Qingxuan manage to hide there for five long years?"

"Do you remember the new Demon Lord of the Demon Emperor Palace once announced to the world that her Revered Master was a Human Race expert... Could it be him?"

"He's the new Demon Lord's Revered Master? I feel... rather than saying they're a master and disciple pair, it's more likely there's some illicit affair. That would better explain how he could hide in the Demon Emperor Palace."

"Quiet down, everyone. Let's wait for Alliance Leader Jiang and Alliance Leader Huang to come down before we speak."

Inside the hall, many experts were discussing fervently;

Even though Chen Qingxuan had disappeared for five years, he remained the most sensitive existence in the entire Cangyun Continent.

At this moment,

In the top-floor room of the Hundred Flowers Tower.

Jiang Susu sat in the seat that once belonged to Chen Qingxuan, her two fair, jade-like legs propped up on the table. "No wonder we couldn't find a single clue no matter where we searched; he actually ran to the Western Regions... Hmph, that heartless man. Once we catch him... Qingxue, let's shove our feet into his mouth together!"

As she spoke, Jiang Susu looked at her good sister beside her, seeking agreement.

"?"

Huang Qingxue's beautiful face froze;

Meeting her good sister's determined gaze, she nodded with a complex mood a moment later. "Alright!"

After speaking, Huang Qingxue clenched her pink fists tightly;

To this day, the taste of being forcibly kissed in public by Chen Qingxuan... seemed to still linger on her lips.

Sometimes she even dreamed of it... and upon waking, she had to take a bath first to calm down.

It could be said that over these five years, she 'missed' Chen Qingxuan even more than before.

Of course, it wasn't just her; for Jiang Susu... Chen Qingxuan had become an obsession.

To the point that whenever she thought of that handsome face, she would grit her teeth. "heartless man, the next time we meet... just wait to be raped first and then killed!"

Huang Qingxue began to doubt her life as she listened. "Susu, you already know what kind of person he is, so why are you still thinking... After doing that, will you be able to bring yourself to kill him?"

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Jiang Susu stated. "There's only one possibility where I wouldn't kill him... and that's if I haven't finished playing with him yet."

"..."

Huang Qingxue was speechless.

If anyone else had said these words, she certainly wouldn't consider them a good person.

But this was her good sister... she could understand Jiang Susu's resentment towards Chen Qingxuan.

"By the way, Qingxue." Jiang Susu suddenly thought of something. "Although we've both improved a lot over these five years and know he's hiding in the Demon Emperor Palace, he must have improved a lot too. We can't rush in to find him as recklessly as last time. We must rely on that treasure you obtained... How much longer until it's fully repaired?"

"According to current progress, I'm afraid it will take another two years before we can use it against that evil cultivator. After all, it is a damaged Divine-Grade Magical Artifact; it's not that easy to repair." Huang Qingxue pursed her lips and said solemnly, "Susu, we've already waited so many years; another two won't hurt. To ensure nothing goes wrong... we'll go deal with that evil cultivator together once I've fixed it!"

"I know."

Jiang Susu nodded.

Whether it was her or Huang Qingxue, although their physical bodies were still those of lolis... their minds were much more mature than back then.

Although they dreamed of catching Chen Qingxuan, they also understood they were not his match. At the very least, before taking action, they had to consider all factors.

This was also why they had created the <Heavenly Dao Alliance>!

A moment later, Jiang Susu suddenly said, "Qingxue, have you noticed something very strange?"

"What is it?"

"It's just... your luck is too good!"

"Luck is good?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Susu smiled brightly.

Facing Huang Qingxue's confused gaze, she explained, "Setting aside that Magical Artifact, over these years we've explored many Secret Realms, ruins, and blessed lands together. Even though I have the Nine Profound Pupils that can see through illusions, you can find opportunities even faster than me just by intuition."

"In the dark, I feel like those things... are almost destined to belong to you."

Jiang Susu voiced the confusion she had held for a long time.

It wasn't that she was jealous of the good things falling into her sister's hands, she was just amazed at the other's explosive luck.

"Is that so?"

Initially, Huang Qingxue just smiled.

But after the words left her mouth, her head buzzed... she couldn't help but reach out and grab her shoulder—more accurately, she grabbed the slave mark on her shoulder;

The thing Chen Qingxuan had left on her!

"No, impossible!"

Huang Qingxue was startled by the suspicion that popped up and hurriedly cut off her thoughts.

Although back then, Chen Qingxuan indeed said this was a <dragon blood orchid> that could attract various opportunities from heaven and earth, and not some Slave Imprint.

But she hadn't believed him.

Setting aside whether such a Heaven-Defying treasure existed in the world, even if it did... why would he give it to her?

The benefits and improvements she gained couldn't possibly be returned to him.

It didn't make sense.

Furthermore, could an evil cultivator who had left her with psychological trauma since childhood... possibly be this kind of good person?

If he really was this kind-hearted towards her... then for her to be doing these things;

Wouldn't that be repaying kindness with enmity?

If it were really like that... even if she were used as a Cauldron, she could only praise him for doing a great job.

So it was absolutely impossible!

"What's wrong?" Jiang Susu looked at her dazed sister and asked in surprise, "Could it be that even now... you still feel uncomfortable when thinking of him?"

"It's quite comfortable..."
