Chapter 13: An Invitation from Yao Ye, A Conversation in the Boudoir!
Time flew by, and three days had passed. Over these three days, Xiao Cang had been taking meticulous care of Yun Yun. At this moment, Yun Yun was sitting obediently next to Xiao Cang, her lips slightly parted as she waited for Xiao Cang to feed her.
"Yun'er, try this bowl of Mother-Child Spirit Fish Soup. It's good for both you and the baby," Xiao Cang said.
He scooped up a spoonful of the creamy, thick soup, gently blew on it, and fed it to Yun Yun. Yun Yun obediently drank it, showing a look of happiness.
"Is it delicious?" Xiao Cang asked.
"It's delicious. Everything you feed me is delicious," Yun Yun replied sweetly. She nodded her head, her beautiful eyes lingering on Xiao Cang's face, unwilling to leave for even a second.
Under the daily attraction of Xiao Cang's "Infinite Charm", Yun Yun, who was originally cold and extremely rational, had completely fallen in love. If outsiders saw Yun Yun in this state, they would probably be shocked.
Where was the aura of the Dou Huang powerhouse who ruled Yun Lan Sect in this Yun Yun? She looked exactly like a girl in love.
After a while, Xiao Cang finished feeding a bowl of porridge, and Yun Yun snuggled up against his shoulder like a little bird relying on a person. Suddenly, an old voice came from outside the house.
"Sect Master Yun, Elder Xiao. I have important matters to discuss," the voice said.
"Elder Yun Leng?" Xiao Cang looked at Yun Yun.
"Anything that would make Elder Yun Leng personally come to discuss must not be a trivial matter. Husband, you should go and discuss it with him," Yun Yun said.
Two days ago, Yun Yun had called a high-level meeting on the grounds that she needed to rest and take care of her fetus, and announced to all the elders and deacons that Xiao Cang would temporarily take the position of Sect Master and make all decisions for the sect on her behalf.
However, the first thing Xiao Cang did after taking over the position of Sect Master was to appoint Yun Leng, who was loyal to Yun Lan Sect, to handle all the affairs of Yun Lan Sect, and he himself became a hands-off shopkeeper.
Of course, if there were some difficult decisions to make, Yun Leng would still have to come and ask for his approval.
"Alright, then Yun'er, you rest first. I'll be back soon," Xiao Cang said. He got up and opened the door to come outside, seeing the white-robed, white-haired and white-bearded Elder Yun Leng.
"Elder Yun Leng," Xiao Cang greeted.
"Elder Xiao," Yun Leng replied. Upon seeing Xiao Cang, Yun Leng immediately showed a kind smile. He, who had devoted his life to Yun Lan Sect, was very fond of Xiao Cang, the unparalleled genius of Yun Lan Sect.
"Elder Yun Leng, what's the matter?" Xiao Cang asked.
"Elder Xiao, please come with me. I'll explain on the way," Yun Leng replied.
…
"Marriage alliance?" Xiao Cang asked on the way, after hearing Elder Yun Leng's explanation. He showed a look of expectation.
As expected, the royal family, after learning that he had broken through to Dou Wang and soon after advanced to a five-star alchemist, could no longer sit still and was eager to secure their ruling position through a marriage alliance. But that's just right, now that Yun Yun is pregnant, he needs an outlet to relieve his loneliness.
A moment later, Xiao Cang followed Yun Leng to the meeting room, where a messenger from the royal family was waiting respectfully.
"Greetings, Elder Xiao," the messenger immediately bowed respectfully as soon as he saw Xiao Cang.
"Your Excellency, please be at ease, just get to the point," Xiao Cang said straightforwardly.
"Elder Xiao is indeed a straightforward person. It's like this, I am here on the orders of Princess Yao Ye to inquire about the marriage alliance that the princess mentioned last time. How has Yun Lan Sect considered it?" the messenger quickly stated his purpose.
"If there is an intention to do so, can Elder Xiao accompany me to the palace to discuss this matter in detail? The princess has prepared a banquet and is waiting for Elder Xiao's arrival," the messenger added.
"Go to the palace?" Xiao Cang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but wonder if this was a trap. Because once he falls, the potential threat of Yun Lan Sect to the royal family will be minimized.
However, he thought again and felt that this was unlikely. The royal family wants to tie Yun Lan Sect firmly to their boat, not to offend Yun Lan Sect to death.
If the royal family dares to make a move against him, then without a doubt, Yun Lan Sect will immediately tear its face and go to war with the royal family. This is definitely not a situation the royal family wants to see.
"Okay," Xiao Cang nodded.
"Elder Xiao, no," Yun Leng hurriedly dissuaded him, how could he not know the undercurrents hidden between the royal family and Yun Lan Sect at this delicate moment?
"Elder Yun Leng, don't worry, I think the royal family really wants to marry Yun Lan Sect this time," Xiao Cang said.
"In that case, as the first sect of the Gama Empire, we Yun Lan Sect naturally need to show the appropriate pattern and demeanor," Xiao Cang added.
Even if the royal family really wants to make a move against him, just relying on Jia Xing Tian and that sixth-order magical beast, they can't keep him who has mastered Three Thousand Thunder Movement Technique.
"Messenger, please lead the way," Xiao Cang laughed and made a gesture of invitation.
"Good, Elder Xiao, please follow me," the messenger heard the words and didn't say much, immediately turned around and led the way.
…
An hour later, Xiao Cang followed the messenger to the back garden of the palace. After winding through the palace for a long time, Xiao Cang finally arrived in front of a palace. This place was antique, with carved dragons and phoenixes, revealing the royal style everywhere.
However, Xiao Cang was a bit puzzled. Because this place didn't look like a place for entertaining guests, but rather like the princess's boudoir.
"Princess, Elder Xiao is here," the messenger knocked on the boudoir door.
"I know, you can go," a cold voice came from the house, and the messenger left after hearing it.
A few moments later, the door opened. Yao Ye in a fitted long dress came out. Different from her heroic appearance last time, Yao Ye today was wearing a fitted long dress that perfectly outlined her graceful figure.
A pair of slender jade legs were wrapped in boots and black stockings, leaving only a glimpse of her creamy thighs where the dress was slit, which was quite suggestive.
Her hair was tied into a high ponytail at the back of her head, her cold pretty face was slightly made up, and her smile revealed a bit of charm. Such a look, even Xiao Cang couldn't help but feel a wave of ripples when he saw it.
"Elder Xiao, please come in," Yao Ye's voice was cold but seductive, making people feel numb.
"Mmm," Xiao Cang nodded and walked into Yao Ye's boudoir. As soon as he entered the boudoir, a faint fragrance wafted over, refreshing his heart and spleen.
"Princess Yao Ye's boudoir is indeed elegant," Xiao Cang praised.
"Thank you for your compliment, Elder Xiao. Please sit down and have some tea," Yao Ye said.
After Xiao Cang sat down, Yao Ye personally came to his side, her jade hand picked up the exquisite teapot, and she brewed tea for him. When Yao Ye was brewing tea, her body slightly tilted towards Xiao Cang. Xiao Cang's peripheral vision inevitably caught a glimpse of a wonderful view. He was immediately shocked. So deep! It's even more than Yun'er's!
"Whoosh~~" As the tea in the pot was poured into the cup, a fresh tea fragrance diffused from the cup. However, Xiao Cang didn't just smell the tea, but also the faint body fragrance from Yao Ye, which made him rise a wave of desire.
"Elder Xiao, have some tea," Yao Ye handed the tea to Xiao Cang.
Xiao Cang took the tea, took a light sniff of the tea fragrance, but suddenly realized something was wrong. There was some medicinal power in the tea fragrance. Although this medicinal power has a nourishing effect, it can also be used to refine a pill that can bewitch a Dou Wang.
So Xiao Cang spread his soul sensing power to carefully sense, and found that the fragrance he smelled when he entered the door was also one of the medicinal materials used to refine the bewitching pill. What does the royal family want to do? Xiao Cang frowned, deciding to investigate.
He took the tea water without changing his face, but as soon as the tea water entered his mouth, he wrapped it with Dou Qi, and then refined it in his body with a strange fire.
"Princess Yao Ye's personally brewed tea is indeed delicious," Xiao Cang put down the tea cup.
Yao Ye's gaze swept over the tea cup imperceptibly. Xiao Cang also very 'understandingly' made a dizzy reaction: "Wait, my head is a bit dizzy. There's medicine in this tea! You, what do you want to…"
"Thud!" Xiao Cang didn't finish his words, and pretended to faint and fell down.
At the same time, his soul perception remained vigilant against Yao Ye. If she intended harm, he would act decisively.
However, to his surprise, Yao Ye actually supported him and the soft touch made him feel a bit sentimental.
After a few breaths, he was astonished to find himself being helped onto Yao Ye's fragrant and soft bed.
A fragrance typical of a maiden's bed immediately surrounded Xiao Cang.
What is she up to?
Xiao Cang subtly opened his eyes a fraction and was suddenly met with an astounding sight!
Yao Ye had loosened her clothing and, with an apologetic tone, said to him:
"Apologies, Xiao Sir. In order to smoothly proceed with the marriage alliance with Yun Lan Sect, I had to resort to this tactic and make the best out of a bad situation."
