Chapter 1053 : Seen a Ghost...
Miao Xiao Miao felt even more powerless when she remembered those words. She directly closed her eyes tightly. However, she didn’t realize that she’d already begun panting a long time ago...
“Ah, your breath is quite unstable... and why is your face so red... it should be a result of choking on the water... hm, this looks very serious...” Jun Mo Xie continued with his actions as he mumbled a bunch of strange reasons. In any case, this mouth-to-mouth resuscitation wasn’t finished yet...
Miao Xiao Miao only felt her head becoming dizzier and dizzier... and her body became even weaker...
Miao Xiao Miao would never have imagined that as the little princess of the Misty Illusory Manor, an esteemed Second level Venerable, the number one beauty of the entire Misty Illusory Manor, her first time... would actually be in the water...
But by this time, she’d already lost all her ability to think...
————————
The water rippled violently...
A long time passed...
Finally turning calm...
“You baddy...” A soft voice rang out, with a slight moan...
“Ah...” Another voice rang out, seemingly carrying some shock. “Miss Miao, so you’re actually fine... I was worried to death... Ai, in order to save you, I’ve exerted myself so much...”
“You did that to save me? Looks like I should thank you ah...” Her face turned red as she grabbed the soft part of his waist and twisted viciously...
“Ao~~~” A wretched cry rang out...
This was a common tactic used by all women, an innate skill without needing to be taught. This technique could be said to be extremely lethal and effective!
“You bastard, now that the two of us are already like this... you... are still calling me... Miss Miao...”
“Hm? What do I call you if not Miss Miao?”
“I... my parents call me... Miao Miao...”
“Miao Miao... Miao Miao... meow meow... meow meow meow...” Young Master Jun rolled his tongue and meowed happily. “This is a really nice name...”
“AH! Y-you... what are you doing? No no... I can’t anymore...”
“Little beauty... we should celebrate your nice name too... come, let this Young Master dote on you a few more times...”
“No... no way... I... wu wu...”
“Keke... little beauty, it’s useless even if you screamed yourself hoarse...”
...
By the time the pair walked out of the little mountain gorge, the sun had already nearly disappeared behind the mountain...
An entire afternoon had already passed...
Miao Xiao Miao leaned against Jun Mo Xie, her face red. A strange look lingered in her eyes, filled with a kind of happiness...
She felt completely frail, as if she’d just returned after weathering a violent storm. The moment she thought back to the events of the afternoon, Miao Xiao Miao felt a fluttering feeling in her heart...
When did she become so... loose...
Every time she thought of that fiery situation, Miao Xiao Miao would feel incomparably embarrassed...
It was all this fellow’s fault. Miao Xiao Miao looked furiously at the smirking guy beside her. This... person can no longer be described as being worse than a beast. He is simply a wild beast; a wild beast that is wilder than a real wild beast!
The ceaseless energy and the endless demanding caused Miao Xiao Miao to still be frightened even now...
Young Master Jun hugged the beauty in his arms, his face wreathed in a victorious look...
Truly too comfortable... strictly speaking, this was only his second time after coming to this world... the first time, he’d been poisoned by aphrodisiac and was barely able to remember that feeling...
This time, he could be said to have truly shown the full extent of his might...
Young Master Jun looked at the beauty beside him with some lingering aftertaste in his mind. Thinking back to the sensation of that soft body under him, he even felt a sudden impulse to drag her back for a few more rounds...
But from the looks of it, it was impossible right now. Judging by the time, the two of them had wasted quite a bit of time outside. The people on the Misty Illusory Manor’s side should have already gone crazy with panic long ago... it was better to go back earlier and set everybody’s minds at ease...
When the two appeared at the gates of the Miao Family, the family guards nearly dropped their eyes on the ground with shock...
There was no reason other than this was too shocking. Although the two’s deaths had not been verified, and there was still a large search going on for them, but everyone had already decided in their hearts that the two of them were surely already finished. And it was the kind where even their corpses had been turned to ashes...
But for them to appear again in front of them...
They felt that they should have seen a ghost...
The originally noisy hall was deathly silent now. The entire bunch of old fellows were all furrowing their brows in a serious manner. From noon till now, they hadn’t even eaten anything. Truthfully, who would be in the mood to eat at such a time?
As for the person behind all this chaos, Young Master Qiu Peng, he had already been bashed up personally by Saint Emperor Bai Qi Feng...
Saint Emperor Bai did not bother about his status and directly went up to the junior and began to beat him viciously in a storm-like manner...
No one came forward to stop him...
In the blink of an eye, Qiu Cheng Yun had been turned into a pig’s head and carried back in a half dead manner... Although Qiu Cheng Yun felt somewhat unhappy in his heart, he had not dared to say anything in that moment. Not only had he not stepped out to stop the beating, he even stood at the side and looked on with a stern expression. If one didn’t know, they would have thought that this old fellow had some irresolvable grudge with that pig-headed person...
Old man Qiu had no choice either. The other fellows were all rubbing their weapons, preparing to fight. With the slightest bit of push, a bloody war would be ignited at any moment. Especially Miao Dao and Miao Jian, that pair of Saint Venerables. Their eyes were watching him closely. From their looks, it was clear that as long as he dared to say even one word that was unpleasant to hear, they would immediately kill their way to the Qiu Family in rage...
Most of the old fellows here were elders who valued Great Prodigy Mo’s talent greatly. Miao Dao and Miao Jian were also exceedingly sorrowful because of Miao Xiao Miao. The two of them doted on Miao Xiao Miao to the extreme, perhaps even more than even Miao Jing Yun. Now that something like this happened, they could already be considered very controlled since they hadn’t started a killing spree...
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the Miao Family’s butler hardened his scalp and asked if everyone wanted to start dinner. In an instant, he was chased out after being scolded by Miao Dao!
“Eat eat eat! Eat your motherf*cking head! All you know is to eat! Eat my d*ck!” Those were the exact words of that Saint Venerable...
The deathly silence in the great hall became even heavier. Before Miao Jing Yun said anything, nobody dared to leave...
Just at this time, a commotion appeared at the door...
After that, a figure walked over leisurely...
As everybody was in a bad mood, they all looked up with rage and annoyance...
In an instant, everyone’s eyes widened with disbelief. What was going on? Could they have really seen a ghost?
Miao Jing Yun’s authoritative air as the Manor Lord suddenly disappeared without a trace as he widened his eyes and gaped soundlessly. A gurgling sound came from his mouth, and he nearly passed out from joy.
Turning around, he saw a young fellow in clean robes, walking in with a faint smile on his face. Who else was this if not Great Prodigy Mo!
A loud bang rang out as Cao Guo Feng stood up, completely forgetting his status!
“You... brat, you aren’t dead? What about Xiao Miao?” Miao Huan Yu walked over hurriedly. He had always behaved in a calm and composed manner his entire life. This was the first time anyone had seen him in such a flustered state...
“Xiao Miao’s clothes were dirtied because of the Heavenly Tribulation, and she went back first to change. She’ll be down in a moment...” Jun Mo Xie rubbed his nose and smiled as he looked at this person in front of him. From the looks of it, this should be his father-in-law, Miao Huan Yu. In that moment, he felt a little embarrassed and guilty... A short moment ago, he’d eaten up the other’s daughter, and quite a few times at that...
After eating so cleanly, he naturally felt somewhat uneasy when facing his father-in-law!
“Ahahah... good good good! It’s good as long as she’s fine!” Miao Huan Yu laughed aloud. Now that he knew that his daughter was safe and sound, this normally calm and steadfast middle-aged man was suddenly filled with vitality as he laughed. “Quick! Go and inform Madam quickly that Xiao Miao has returned safely! She’s fine! Completely fine!”
It turned out that Madam Miao had fainted when she heard the news, unable to bear the blow...
Before his voice dissipated, Miao Xiao Miao dressed in white robes walked out slowly...
She had no choice but to walk slowly at this time. The lower half of her body was exceedingly uncomfortable. As for why it was uncomfortable...
The reason was clear...
“Miao Miao...” Over ten voices rang out, their voices filled with emotion.
Young Master Jun rolled his eyes... this synchronized ‘Miao Miao’ had caused Young Master Jun to feel as if he’d walked into a den of cats...
The entire hall was instantly filled with happiness and excitement as everyone gathered around them to ask all kinds of questions.
Regarding the Heavenly Tribulation, Miao Xiao Miao was in a state of confusion at that time and did not know what had happened at all. Besides, even if she could see everything clearly, she wouldn’t be able to explain it... she could only try her best to answer the questions in a confused manner...
As for Young Master Jun, he was even more talented at acting confused. Narrowing his eyes, he spouted all kinds of strange logic, leading the conversation in circles. In the end, what could the crowd expect of a mere little ‘Golden Xuan’ prawning to answer such profound questions...
As for why they’d come back so late, the bunch of old fellows cleverly did not ask at all...
What was the point of asking? Which of these people were not wily old foxes? Which of these people’s eyesight was not sharp enough to tell?
From the instant Miao Xiao Miao walked in, they had already discovered that something wasn’t right. Everything became clear in an instant...
There was no need to ask at all. With Great Prodigy Mo’s selfless act, how could that lass Xiao Miao not be touched? The two of them must have absconded somewhere after the tribulation to clean themselves, and subsequently...
This matter was too obvious. Who among them would be unable to guess...
If at this time there was anyone stupid enough to ask, that person would probably be beat up by the rest together...
As for the tribulation... everyone had already arrived at an ‘obvious’ conclusion in their hearts. Another powerful expert must have happened to also be undergoing his tribulation at the same area at the time... Miao Xiao Miao had only intercepted with that person’s Heavenly Tribulation briefly. But when the other person’s Heavenly Tribulation began, hers had already ended... which was why the pair of them had been able to pass through from it safely...
As for such a high level of analysis, the two juniors naturally would not understand...
The old fellows had already arrived at the most logical explanation for the entire event. Truthfully, this was also the only possible explanation. Otherwise, could the pair of little fellows that were only 17, 18 years old possibly draw such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation? Even ghosts would not be able to believe such a thing!
This exceedingly difficult problem that Jun Mo Xie had originally brooded over had actually been dismissed so easily by the ‘clever commonsensical’ answer that the crowd came up with...
