Chapter 141 - 141: 117. Today I Know the Heavens Beyond Heaven
‘ My sister is an idiot, ” Huang Siren whispered. ” Ignore her. ”
Huang Yan was speechless.
Xia Ji nodded. ” Then let’s continue counting. You count to the south, and I’ll count to the north. ‘
Huang Yan was speechless.
Big Brother, you’re such a good person, ” Huang Siren said happily. ” After you’re done counting the stars, I’ll give you the top courtesan of Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant. She can sleep with you. ”
Huang Yan was speechless.
Xia Ji didn’t say anything shocking. “”There’s no need for that. I’ve always liked Imives and wine. By the way, Miss Huang has been playing the zither late at night these past few days…”
Huang Yan’s eyes lit up. This was her topic.
I played the zither because I was worried. I was worried because my father forced me to marry a man I had never met before. This man was notorious for his brutality and killing. His hands were stained with blood. It was said that he was an anomaly and was destined to have a bad ending. ”
Xia Ji suddenly remembered that his sister had told him that the fourth daughter of the Duke of Cheng’s Public House, Huang Yan, was beautiful. She had even shown him the portrait, but the portrait did not match the person in front of him. Could it be that the portrait was fake? On second thought, he roughly understood that the previous painting was fake, but this time, he did not know why he was sending the real painting over.
“Young Master Wind, aren’t you curious about who this person is?” Huang Yan asked.
Xia Ji shook his head.
“It’s King Shenwu,” Huang Yan said with a sad expression.
Xia Ji asked, ” I’ve heard that King Shenwu is handsome and extraordinary. He’s a first-class hero, a peerless genius that only appears once in a thousand years. He retreated from the Guifang Kingdom, defeated the Turks, and went south alone. Floating Jade Mountain fought against the heroes and defeated seven of the twenty heavens. ‘
“That’s because Young Master Wind doesn’t understand him and was deceived by his false appearance,” Huang Yan sighed.
Xia Ji was speechless.
At this point, he had no choice but to continue the conversation. He looked at Huang Siren, who was getting more and more upset, and pointed into the distance.
“Alright, I won’t disturb you from counting the stars. Take your time, brother.” Huang Yan understood.
Huang Siren looked at Xia Ji gratefully, then turned to Huang Yan impatiently and said, “”Get out of my sight.”
The two of them walked to a pavilion on the other side. Xia Ji held a glass of wine and listened to the fourth daughter of the Huang family slowly pour out her grievances. He felt very magical now…
His original identity was an enemy to everyone, and the heavens did not tolerate him. It seemed that everything had changed after changing his identity?
Huang Yan said, ” I’m locked up in the palace. If I were to really marry that King Divine Martial, I would probably be a caged bird for the rest of my life and become his plaything. If he suddenly had the intention to kill me, he might vent his anger on me and even kill me. ” I didn’t want to go, but Father insisted that I go.”
She was lying on the stone table in the pavilion, her light yellow shirt sticking to her pink cheeks. She pouted and looked at the lake in the distance. The lake ripples were golden scales under the moonlight. She was waiting for comfort.
However, why would Xia Ji comfort her? She had scolded herself for a long time. At this moment, he picked up the wine pot and brought it to his lips. He stood up and walked away drunkenly.
Huang Yan didn’t know why, but her eyes became gloomy. The prodigal son in front of her wasn’t a playboy, but he had an aura that was close to magic. He seemed different from everyone she had met, causing people to unconsciously be attracted to him. It was a very special temperament, as if…The gods wear cloth clothes and play in the world.
Her feeling was right. Xia Ji might be able to suppress the 11th level and hide it, but the confidence that he had already stepped into the sky could not be hidden. He was already high and mighty in the mortal world. It was a state of mind that was filled with inner secrets, just like a true aristocrat, not a nouveau riche.
Therefore, Huang Yan was attracted to the youth, but the youth was not attracted to her. She sighed lightly, but faint laughter came from afar. ” A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a matchmaker. I raise my cup to invite the moon, and the shadow becomes three people. Ton, ton, ton, ton…”
Xia Ji maintained his persona as he raised his head and gulped down his wine. He walked around the flowers alone, and his shadow split into three as he landed on the ground. They moved and danced with him. For a moment, his lonely and wild aura seemed to flow out of his body like the gurgling moonlight. Huang Yan had never seen such a wild and elegant demeanor before, and she could not help but be stunned for a moment.
All of a sudden, she felt a sense of inferiority. She had participated in many poetry competitions and met many scholars from the Eastern Sea, but all of them combined could not compare to the drinking and dancing of this youth in front of her. Could it be that people from heaven had no interest in the mortal world?
Which woman in the world was worthy of such a person?
Another seven days passed.
Four Su family disciples had already gathered in Huangwu City.
Xia Ji was one, Xin Wangshu was another, the third was a middle-aged Taoist priest with a dignified appearance and slightly red cheeks, who called himself “Cherry”, and the fourth was a young girl, Yan Ling. The Huang Family found Yan Ling and brought her back.
This made Xia Ji confused…
If Yan Ling was a member of the Su family, how could she have fallen into their trap?
Moreover, she could still have her soul swapped with Xia Yun, right?
Soon, he realized that Yan Ling was also very confused. It seemed like it was a mistake. It was probably only after this thorough investigation that he confirmed Yan Ling’s identity.
The four of them got into the carriage together with Huang Wucheng and left Duke Cheng’s Mansion under the cover of the night. In the carriage, Yan Ling held onto her sword nervously as her gaze swept across the four people in the carriage. She huddled in a corner alone. She had once disguised herself as a demoness, but the three years of isolation after returning to the Green Cliff Manor had changed her. When she saw the ” man who took her body ” again, what she gained was an extreme sense of inferiority. In the past few months, her inferiority had caused her isolation to ferment and she became unwilling to talk to anyone..
