"My brother-in-law said he often goes out and it's inconvenient to take such an important thing out and about. He was worried that if he entrusted it to you, you might become a target for someone who wanted to harm you. So he asked me, who is always vigilant, to keep it safe. That way, no one would suspect anything, and if something really happens, there will be a time lag," Shang Liuyu replied.

Shang Hongyu snorted coldly: "Do you believe that reason?"

Shang Liuyu blushed slightly: "Sister is so smart, of course you should have guessed something. Brother-in-law does have some improper thoughts about me."

"My brother-in-law and his family are influenced by the dragon bloodline, so it's natural for them to be like this. It's not surprising that he's being so attentive to me, but I didn't take it to heart. Also, I didn't want to cause any discord between you and your husband because of me, so I haven't told you about it."

"Why should you feel apologetic, little sister? You're so beautiful, it would be strange if that guy wasn't attracted to you," Shang Hongyu snorted. "We are the closest sisters by blood, and that stinky Dragon King is just an outsider."

Feeling the deep sisterly affection in her sister's eyes, Shang Liuyu felt a warmth in her heart: "Actually, my brother-in-law's actions were a lucky accident, otherwise the crown would probably have fallen into the hands of those thieves."

"You're smart enough not to wear the crown, otherwise you would have been in danger too." Shang Hongyu was very relieved.

Shang Liuyu smiled slightly: "I'm not stupid. After realizing that something had happened in the Dragon Palace, I hid it immediately. The sea is so big, let them go find it."

Kachir, standing outside the courtyard, snorted, "That woman is truly despicable. If I hadn't found a better way this time, I would have loved to teach her a lesson and see if she would still be so stubborn then."

"Don't worry, with her sister's help, we'll find out the crown's whereabouts soon," Zuan said with a smile.

Kachir hummed in agreement. Seeing that the two sisters did not mention the crown again in their conversation, he and Zaun went inside and brought Shang Hongyu out.

After returning to her palace, Shang Hongyu said with emotion, "My little sister has been holding a lot of hope in you and has been waiting for you to come and save her. Should we secretly tell her about you?"

After thinking for a moment, Zuan still refused: "No, the situation is too complicated right now. Not to mention that Kachir's people have been monitoring her all along, even if we succeed in informing her, such an unbelievable thing will definitely shock her and inevitably expose her flaws."

Hearing him say that, Shang Hongyu felt a sudden sense of relief for some reason.

This is just a little secret between her and Zuan, and they can keep it going for a while longer.

The thought made her feel ashamed; that was her own sister, and she knew it was wrong of her to have such thoughts.

"By the way, did Kachir notice anything amiss during our conversation just now?" she asked hurriedly.

"Generally, there's no problem. It's just that you didn't tell her I'm the True Dragon King, which made her a little unhappy, but I managed to smooth things over," Zuan replied.

Upon hearing the reason given, Shang Hongyu nodded and said, "That's what I think too. It would be too deliberate to tell them today. If my little sister believes it now, Kachir might not think anything of it yet because he's in a hurry, but he'll definitely have doubts later when he comes to his senses."

Did he say what to do next?

“I did say that,” Zuan said with a strange expression, “but I’ll find you some more Dew of Leisure to drink, and I’ll also find some of the great tonics that the Dragon King made to nourish my body.”

Shang Hongyu: "???"

Her pretty oval face turned red at a visible speed, and she chased after him, blushing and angry, yelling, "Are you trying to kill me?!"

While laughing and dodging, Zuan spread his hands and said, "This is not what I said. He just wants you to be completely conquered as soon as possible."

"Then go tell him that I already... I was already... you know yesterday, so he shouldn't worry about these things." Although Shang Hongyu was bold and proactive a few days ago, she was severely punished with a stick yesterday and was too embarrassed to say that word.

Zuan suppressed a laugh: "But you just said that going too fast would arouse suspicion."

"Pah!" Shang Hongyu spat. She wasn't referring to that, otherwise people would think she was deliberately delaying because she wanted to... to do that with him more.

After joking around for a while, Zu'an hugged her and said, "I have a way to make him believe that you are completely one of us, but you will have to suffer a little."

"What method?" Shang Hongyu was taken aback, then said seriously, "What does a little grievance matter as long as it can help this plan?"

Zuan thought for a moment, then leaned close to her ear and whispered something.

Shang Hongyu was initially tickled by the hot breath exhaled from the other person's mouth and subconsciously shrank back. However, after listening, her eyes widened: "You... did you deliberately come up with this method to take advantage of me?"

Zuan said seriously, "Absolutely not. If you're not willing, we can think of another way."

"Fine, whatever... whatever you say." Shang Hongyu never thought she would one day be as shy as a little girl.

Sigh, thankfully the other party was Zuan, otherwise she couldn't imagine whether she would have really fallen into depravity after all these days.

After a while, Kachir received the notification and arrived outside the palace: "His Majesty summoned me?"

"Yes, come in." The Dragon King's voice came from inside.

Kachiel raised an eyebrow. The Dragon King's voice seemed a little strange today.

Upon entering the room, he found that all the palace maids had been dismissed, and the Dragon King was sitting at his desk, seemingly working, but also appearing somewhat distracted.

His gaze fell on the desk. Although he couldn't see what was under the desk from his angle, with his cultivation level, how could he not sense that there was a person kneeling inside?
