255 A new idea?!
A middle-aged man trembling in fear walked through the hallway of the Spirit Hall. *gulp* He gulped his saliva as he thought about what was going to happen to him.
Fuck! I should've just come to watch the Tournament. Where did that bitch go? Didn't she surrender representing our clan? Isn't her Academy bought by him as Dio Brando? Shui Quon's thoughts were filled with frustration and regret.
Then why is there news that we have not yet surrendered? The Heaven Dou Empire declared that they surrendered to the Holy Son and the people were obviously shocked seeing the powerful empire surrendering.
Shui Quon took a deep breath to steady his nerves.. He still remembers the Holy Son's declaration of war from the broadcast... It was scary. Is he really human? Those ridiculous powers and those spirit rings.
A shiver went down his spine thinking about this. *haah* You can handle this, Shui Quon. You can! he muttered to himself, attempting to muster his courage.
Approaching a pair of imposing spirit guards who stood before a large door, Shui Quon announced his presence. "Shui Quon, Sect Master of Shui Clan."
The Spirit Guard nodded with a stern expression and advised, "His Highness, the Holy Prince is inside. Be respectful in his presence..."
E-Eh? Shui Quon was startled and heavily nodded his head bowing "I will remember that, Thank you..."
The two spirit guards opened the huge door for him and Shui Quon entered the hall. His eyes glanced around and saw that no one was there.
Then he looked at the front raising his head and his eyes fell on the handsome young man sitting on the throne with a nonchalant gaze.
Shui Quon took a deep breath and quickly approached the throne. He bowed deeply and declared, "Shui Quon, Sect Master of the Shui Clan, has come to surrender."
Xuan Yan just stayed silent and Shui Quon panicked. The room fell eerily silent, and Shui Quon felt his heart race. W-Why is he silent? "I apologize, Your Highness... for my late visit. Hereby, we Shui Clan is wholeheartedly surrendering in front of Your Highness!"
"You are quite late." Shui Quon heard a familiar voice of the past and he raised his head to look at the blue-haired woman sitting on the lap of Xuan Yan and his eyes widened "S-Shui Mei?" Shui Quon stammered, his eyes widening as he recognized his wife in such an unexpected situation.
Shui Quon's eyes skimmed how Shui Mei sensually entangled her arms around his neck and how he was affectionately holding her waist. "W-W-What is this? Shui Mei?"
"What? I am just sitting on my Husband's lap... you got any problem?"
Shui Quon's eyes trembled in disbelief but then his face contoured in anger looking at his wife in another man's arms "SHU- *slick* *thud* before he could finish his words, Shui Quon's head rolled on the ground.
"I am tired of these yellings."
Shui Mei blinked her eyes in surprise but then she laughed "Haha, Yan..."
A day passed~
Ah Rou, who was working in the kitchen, gasped in shock as she laid eyes on Xuan Yan entering the kitchen half-naked, his well-defined chest on full display. His flawless physique left her momentarily stunned, and her eyes couldn't help but tremble as she admired his body. Woahh!
Xuan Yan walked in with a smile "Good morning, Aunt Rou..." he said stroking his white hair which was cascaded on his face. "Ah... Good morning, Yan..." Ah Rou came out of her stupor and turned her gaze to his face from his body.
Ah Yin who is also working in the kitchen turned around and smiled gently "Good morning, Husband..." Xuan Yan approached Ah Yin, embracing her with tenderness. "Very good morning, dear...haah," he murmured, his voice filled with affection.
A chuckle escaped her lips and she also tightly held his back placing her head on his shoulder. Ah Yin in his arms, gently rolled her eyes looking at Ah Rou, and laughed in her heart seeing the jealousy flaring in Ah Rou's eyes. Oh! How scary...
She thought of increasing the fire and raised her hand caressing his face "Coffer?" Xuan Yan gave a nod "Yeah..."
"Yan, here is your coffee..." Ah Yin heard a voice and she turned around looking at Ah Rou standing with a cup of coffee in her hand.
Huh? Ah Yin was surprised... when did she prepare the coffee? Xuan Yan took the coffee cup with a smile "Thanks, Aunt Rou..."
Ah Rou smiled gently but then she frowned at Ah Yin.. "Hmph!" she snorted and looked away. It has been like this since the day Ah Rou realized her feelings.... The women never leave Xuan Yan alone.
It is as if they are all doing it deliberately so that Ah Rou cannot approach Xuan Yan. Ah Rou still has doubts about these women, did they realize her feelings and doing these to tease her?
Xuan Yan glimpsed at all the drama and couldn't help but chuckle in his mind. As he took a sip of the warm coffee, he gently leaned in whispering in Ah Yin's ears "It seems like your tease didn't work today?"
Ah Yin was startled hearing this but then a mischievous smile appeared on her lips and she wrapped her hands around his neck, her lips close to his ear "You are really not naive in these things, Husband." she hushed back.
"When did you realize?" she asked in a low voice so Ah Rou couldn't hear. Xuan Yan softly chuckled "It's been a while... I noticed how Aunt Rou is trying to get my attention, but you guys always try to disturb that."
Ah Yin giggled playfully "It's fun to tease Ah Rou like this. When she looks at us with jealousy and longing... her face is cute and I can't stop teasing."
Xuan Yan nodded understandingly "I know... Haha. That's why I played along and remained oblivious to some of her advances.... really adorable to see her like that." he said as he took another sip.
"Hah..."
Ah Rou's envy reached a peak looking at Ah Yin softly whispering in Xuan Yan's ear and kissing his ear... and them chuckling looking at each other tenderly as if they were in their own world enjoying the time.
Her desire to be closer to Xuan Yan and share such moments with him intensified, leaving her feeling a pang of longing and frustration.
Ahhhh! I also want to do these things with him...
My daughter! Where is she? I can only ask for help from her... Xiao Wu said that she would help her after the tournament and now it's time.
*tap* Xuan Yan and Ah Yin looked at Ah Rou walking out of the kitchen amusedly. They looked at each other and laughed.
...
"Xiao Wu!" Ah Rou stormed into Xiao Wu's room yelling her name. Entering inside she saw her daughter sleeping peacefully on the bed.
(˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥) Your mom here is struggling to woo a man and my daughter is sleeping so peacefully. Walking near the bed, she violently shook Xiao Wu "Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu!"
Huh? "E-Earthquake? Brother Yan?" Xiao Wu was startled and woke up from her sleep looking around panicking. But then her gaze fell on Ah Rou and she sighed realizing "Oh, mom. it's you..." she said and again went to sleep.
°՞(ᗒᗣᗕ)՞° "Ehhhhh! XIAO WU!" Ah Rou again shook Xiao Wu trying to wake her up. Xiao Wu again woke up sitting on the bed and clutched her head wryly. W-What is it this time?
"What happened, Mom?" It's always been like this, whenever her Mom's plan to approach Xuan Yan fails, she always comes to her pleading about her failed missions.
"Xiao Wu, help me... you said that you would help me after the tournament and now it's time."
-_- Xiao Wu sat cross-legged on the bed and rubbed her eyes recovering from the sleep "But how can I help you..."
"I don't know, just do something so that I can be alone with Yan without his women near him.."
"Ok, that's impossible..." Xiao Wu said and jumped down from the bed.
Ah Rou reminded her with a hint of desperation. "But you promised to help me.."
"T-That's *sigh* I will try to do something..." She couldn't help but roll her eyes and sigh.
...
"Did you get any ideas?" Ah Rou asked curiously as she continued rubbing her daughter's wet hair in the bath with a towel.
"No, Mom..."
...
"Did you get any ideas?" Ah Rou asked while helping her daughter to put on her dress.
"No, Mom!"
...
"Did you get any ideas?" Ah Rou asked, braiding her daughter's hair as they sat on the bed.
"No, Mom!"
...
"Did you get any—"
"No, Mom," Xiao Wu replied with increasing frustration.
In her exasperation, Ah Rou sighed heavily and fell back on the bed. She raised her arm, looking at her palm. "Ah... I think I should have just left for Star Dou Forest from the start."
Hearing this, an idea suddenly struck Xiao Wu's mind. She stood up from the bed and excalimed, "That's it, Mom! Star Dou Forest..."
Ah Rou's eye twinkled in excitement and she jumped from the bed "What is it? Xiao Wu? Did you get any ideas? Tell me... Tell me."
...
Ah Rou and Xiao Wu walked downstairs together, leaving their room. As they descended, they found Xuan Yan giving Zhu Zhuqing a piggyback ride and strolling around the home.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but smile at the adorable sight, secretly wanting a piggyback ride from Xuan Yan as well. Ah Rou, noticing her daughter's distraction, quickly caught Xiao Wu's hand "Xiao Wu, don't forget our mission. Stay focused..."
A sigh escaped Xiao Wu's lips as she reluctantly shifted her attention back to the mission. Right now, helping her mom take a step closer to Xuan Yan was her top priority. Her own desire for a piggyback ride could wait.
*tap* Xuan Yan, carrying Zhu Zhuqing raised his head looking at Ah Rou and Xiao Wu. *smooch* And at this time, Zhu Zhuqing gave a peck on his cheek from behind. "Haha!"
"Brother Yan!" Xiao Wu came down with a grin and Xuan Yan gave a kiss on her forehead. Xiao Wu's smile widened as she thought about the kiss. Hehe...
But then she felt a glare from behind and remembered her mission "Um.. Brother Yan. I want to ask something..."
"Ah.. Qing'er lighter..." Xuan Yan chuckled as Zhu Zhuqing playfully bit his neck. "What do you want to ask Xiao Wu..."
Zhu Zhuqing continued to wrap her legs around his waist and bit his neck. *num* *num* Xiao Wu giggled seeing this "Brother Yan, it's been a while...since I last went to Star Dou forest..."
"So I thought it would be nice to visit the Lake of Lif and see Da Ming and Er Ming."
