Let Me Explain, Fairy

Chapter 521 - Three Hundred and Thirty-Seven: Conversation_2

Chapter 521: Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty-Seven: Conversation_2Tianyan narrowed her beautiful eyes:

"You sound disgusting when you say that."

"Keep your jealousy hidden, or it might cause trouble for others."

Li Qingyan smiled, her eyes curving into crescents, as she raised her palm to catch a falling leaf, then suddenly asked, "Are you... still going to the Spiritual Water Palace?"

Tianyan gave her a glance:

"Yes, I believe I have informed you of this when I was at the Northern Border."

Li Qingyan observed the hint of fire in her eyes but did not get angry, merely speaking softly:

"The palace suggests that you change your plans, best not to go to the Spiritual Water Palace."

Tianyan’s golden pupils stared at her for a few moments before she asked in a low voice:

"Why?"

Dressed in white, Li Qingyan stood stalwart against the fluttering snow, casually saying:

"It will be very dangerous, you might die if you go there."

The Spiritual Water Palace, the most preeminent sect of the Northern Frontier.

According to the information gathered within Di’an City by those in contact with the Northern Border, the army surrounding the Spiritual Water Palace would be fully assembled within a decade.

The Imperial Court placed great importance on this leading sect of the Northern Frontier.

Two towns from the Northern Border, along with the one town commanded by the General Yuan Hao with the Black Scale Army.

In total, three towns, nearly one hundred thousand troops.

Beyond that, there were Wolf Cavalry and infantry from the Barbarian Tribes who had surrendered to the Imperial Court to save their lives.

Collapse of the barbarian forces was imminent, and all life would seek its own way out.

No sentient being wishes to die, and given a chance, those scattered barbarian tribes would find reasons to surrender on their own.

For example,

their king fled in the midst of battle, abandoning them.

They had initially moved south in

"....." Tianyan clenched her fists.

She took a deep breath, exhaled, and after calming her mood, her voice was crisp, "You... are quite open-minded."

"Open-minded? Perhaps."

Li Qingyan’s crimson eyes shone like rubies in the snow, her lips curled with a smile,

"The affections of this world are tantalizing, making one unconsciously want to stay by the other’s side, but Tianyan, in this world, there are matters more important waiting for this palace to attend to."

"......"

Tianyan’s pupils widened slightly, she pursed her lips and looked away, asking,

"Li Qingyan, with Changtian’s status and the talents he has shown, there should be no one willing to take the risk and make a move against him."

"The talents he showed during the battle at the Northern Border have been discovered."

Li Qingyan smiled gently, a cold glint in her eyes,

"Because of this, in the past, he and I were already attacked once. The journey back to the capital may be dangerous, which is why you need to protect him."

"Who?" Tianyan furrowed her brows.

Li Qingyan didn’t answer directly,

"When the time comes, you can ask Changtian yourself."

Tianyan didn’t speak anymore, her bare feet moving slightly in mid-air as she turned to walk towards the stone house.

As she reached the door, her crisp voice came softly,

"I... don’t dislike you as much anymore."

"...."

Li Qingyan smiled at her words, her tone playful,

"Just because I allowed you to be alone with Changtian? You young girls are really easy to placate."

"....."

Tianyan trembled, biting her teeth as Origin Qi suddenly overflowed around her.

Li Qingyan, with her long jade legs, brushed past the hovering Tianyan, leaning close to her ear with a breath as soft as an orchid, her voice very light,

"See, you’re angry again.

"On your return to the capital, I think you, Tianyan, might be bullied to death by that Master of Fate~"

After speaking, she took advantage of Tianyan’s moment of frustration to rub her head and then walked straight into the stone house, leaving the petite Tianyan standing outside, shaking with anger.

And in the instant she entered the stone house, Li Qingyan’s previously good mood disappeared instantly.

The Fire Spirit Lamp dispelled the cold within the stone house, and a bed of mysterious jade taken from the Sumeru Ring was placed in the center.

Xu Yuan laid face down on the bed, his cheek resting on the soft jade pillow, while Bai Muxi in a purple silk robe sat on his thigh, her two gentle hands softly massaging his lower back.

The posture was somewhat suggestive.

Looking at the man and woman on the jade bed, Li Qingyan’s lips, carried a hint of a smile,

"Changtian, if you’re really feeling unwell, wouldn’t you prefer to have this palace massage you?"

Xu Yuan glanced back at her and remained silent.

No matter, Xiao Bai will make a move.

Bai Muxi, seeing this, drooped her eyelids and dismounted from the man, speaking obediently,

"Your Highness, is..."

"Shut up."

Li Qingyan’s cold gaze swept over,

"How is your practice of Dian Yuan’s Six Meridian Technique coming along? And you have the leisure to do other things?"

As she spoke, she took out a whip from the Sumeru Ring, "It’s been a while since this palace has checked your progress."

Bai Muxi shrank her neck and immediately fell silent.

She’s done for, Xiao Bai can’t outmatch this wicked woman.

Xu Yuan sat up calmly from the jade bed, resting his elbow on his knee, looking at her with a smile at the doorway,

"Have you finished whispering with Tianyan? What whispers are you exchanging, avoiding me?"

Li Qingyan, in her swaying white robes, holding the whip, walked to the edge of the bed, narrowing her eyes,

"After reaching Guangyang Prefecture, Tianyan will escort you back to the capital, then it will be this palace’s turn to serve you, Changtian~"

"....." Xu Yuan.
