In the end, as expected, the Innate Mystic Spirit Elixir was bought by Eunuch Cao.
Of course, there were those who refused to accept this. A cultivator with fifth-rank strength stood up, and then… well, that was the end of him.
Time to inform his relatives and fellow villagers. They could prepare for the funeral feast.
Chu Feng was dumbfounded. Truly tyrannical! To treat human life so cheaply… it was exactly like his first impression of a grand eunuch.
Since the final treasure had been taken by Eunuch Cao, the crowd naturally began to disperse.
Chu Feng also wanted to get up and leave, but Bai Yuyan stopped him.
“Senior Sister Yuyan, we’re not leaving?” Chu Feng asked curiously.
“No rush. Let’s wait a little. A distinguished guest will be coming,” Bai Yuyan pulled her junior brother back down beside her, then nestled comfortably into his arms.
“Alright then.” Chu Feng didn’t mind. After all, holding his soft, fragrant senior sister like this was hardly a loss.
But who exactly was this “distinguished guest” Senior Sister Yuyan mentioned?
Chu Feng tried to recall. These past few days, she had been practically inseparable from him. Could it be an old friend of hers?
Sure enough, before long, there was a knock at the door.
“Come in,” Bai Yuyan said.
The door opened, and a gray-haired, effeminate man stepped inside.
Chu Feng: !!!
Wasn’t this that very same eunuch!?
He was the distinguished guest Senior Sister Yuyan spoke of!?
When Eunuch Cao entered and saw the stunning beauty lying in Chu Feng’s arms, his brow furrowed slightly.
How could Her Majesty be interested in this boy?
His talent and strength were nothing remarkable. Though… his luck with women was certainly enviable.
Just as Bai Yuyan had expected, the Innate Mystic Spirit Elixir was useless to Ji Yuhuang.
Since Ji Yuhuang had sent Eunuch Cao personally, it could only mean one thing…this elixir was meant for her junior brother.
“Leave the item here, Eunuch Cao, and you may take your leave,” Bai Yuyan said lazily, curling up in Chu Feng’s embrace like a little cat.
Breathing in her junior brother’s scent, she felt deeply content.
Chu Feng thought Senior Sister’s words would surely anger Eunuch Cao, but to his surprise, the eunuch actually grinned!
Could it be… this Eunuch Cao was a bit of an M?
“This servant will leave the item here then,” Eunuch Cao said, placing the Innate Mystic Spirit Elixir which he had just acquired directly into Chu Feng’s hands.
Before leaving, Eunuch Cao looked at Chu Feng and said:
“Oh, and Young Master Chu Feng. Her Majesty cares for you very much.”
Cares for me?
Chu Feng was completely baffled by that statement. He had never even met the Empress!
From what Senior Sister Yuyan had told him, the Empress was a tyrant.
A woman tyrant… For some reason, when Chu Feng imagined it, what appeared in his mind was the image of a middle-aged auntie.
After all, a tyrant was bound to be hot-tempered.
After all, in Chu Feng’s mind, the combination of a woman and a bad temper could only mean one thing: a middle-aged auntie. And the temper of a middle-aged auntie….now that was something fierce.
Hmm… that type was definitely a pass. Sure, he liked mature women, but this one was clearly too mature.
The flower language of steel wool was patience and wealth, but with his master and Senior Sister Yuyan in his life, he didn’t need any steel wool.
Just then, Chu Feng glanced down and saw that Senior Sister Yuyan had already fallen asleep in his arms.
Her long, delicate lashes trembled softly, her skin was fair, and the corners of her lips curled up ever so slightly, as if she were having a sweet dream.
Her ink-black hair spilled over his chest. Chu Feng picked up a strand. It felt smooth and silky to the touch. He thought she could probably be the spokesperson for a hair care brand.
Chu Feng wanted to wake her up since it was time to go but when he saw that beautiful sleeping face, he couldn’t bear to disturb such a perfect moment.
“Junior brother…”
Still asleep, Bai Yuyan murmured in her sleep.
Looking at the sweetly sleeping Senior Sister Yuyan in his arms, Chu Feng felt like he was taking full advantage of her. The guilt began to weigh on him.
His thoughts began to drift, and with the soft, steady rhythm of her breathing in his ears, his own eyelids started to grow heavy.
***
Before him appeared a courtyard filled with rock gardens and elegant pavilions, flowers blooming everywhere, and a light floral fragrance lingering in the air.
Another dream?
But this dream felt too real. He could even smell the flowers.
Chu Feng looked around. The garden was vast, and on the pavilion roof, there was a five-clawed golden dragon.
Chu Feng was walking when he suddenly felt something wrap around his thigh.
“Daddy!”
A soft, childish voice rang out.
Chu Feng: !!!
Startled, he quickly looked down only to see an incredibly adorable little girl clinging to his leg.
The little girl looked like a porcelain doll, her big round eyes full of innocence and purity.
Did I… become a dad!?
Chu Feng was completely confused….but utterly shocked!
“Little one, I’m not your daddy.”
Chu Feng squatted down and gently patted the little girl’s head as he spoke.
But to his surprise, the moment she heard his words, the little girl pouted and burst into tears with a loud wail.
“Daddy doesn’t want me anymore!!!”
“Waaaah!!”
In an instant, Chu Feng felt like his eardrums were about to burst.
This tiny thing. How could such a small person be so loud!?
“No, really, little one, I’m not your daddy. I don’t even have a wife.”
Seeing her cry like a little flower in the rain, Chu Feng was at a total loss. If there was one thing he was bad at, it was comforting children.
“Husband.”
A voice, both familiar and unfamiliar, sounded behind him. Chu Feng’s whole body tensed.
He immediately turned around.
A beautiful woman dressed in luxurious palace robes was walking toward him, followed by several maids. Her every step exuded elegance and grace.
It was her!!!
Chu Feng recognized her instantly. She was the woman he had married in his dream!
But… what was going on? A daughter already!? Wasn’t this way too fast?
He’d heard of shotgun weddings….but a shotgun daughter? That was a first.
The beautiful woman knelt down and gently comforted the little girl in her arms. “There, there~ Daddy was just teasing Yun’er just now. Don’t cry.”
She looked every bit the part of a loving mother. Eventually, the little girl’s crying slowly came to a stop.
“Alright, Yun’er, go play now.”
As soon as she said that, the little girl ran off.
“Husband, Yun’er is still young. Don’t scare her like that,” the beautiful woman said with a playful pout.
Chu Feng wanted to ask, “Who exactly are you?” But when he opened his mouth, what came out was something completely different.
“Wife, I was just teasing our daughter. I won’t do it again.”
Sure enough, he still couldn’t control himself. He could only watch like a spectator, but at the same time, he could feel everything. This…
The beautiful woman smiled at his words, then stepped closer to Chu Feng and whispered softly in his ear, “More than teasing our daughter, I prefer it when Husband teases me… and makes me happy.”
In the next instant, the scene before Chu Feng shifted. The courtyard vanished and was replaced by a bedroom.
The beautiful woman’s bright, phoenix-like eyes locked onto Chu Feng. Then, with a gentle push, he stumbled backward and fell onto the bed.
In the next moment, she straddled his waist with a charming smile playing on her lips.
Chu Feng hadn’t expected the physical sensation to feel this real.
Even through their clothes, he could clearly feel the warmth of her body and the softness and elasticity of her curves. They pressed down with such vivid presence.
And just by sheer misfortune or perhaps mischief, she had landed right on a sensitive spot.
Chu Feng couldn’t help it; his body reacted instinctively.
The woman slowly trailed her fingers down his chest, her touch light and deliberate, before giving a bewitching smile.
“This time… I will be on top.”
