Chapter 2 Chapter 2 The Girl's Breath
Ling Fuying's gaze dropped from the man's cold and lifeless eyes to his Adam's apple that was tucked high on the edge of his clothes.
The luster of jade makes it look like a hill carved out of jade. I wonder if every part of it is so exquisite.
The girl in front of him had such a naked look in her eyes, it was as if her gaze was passing through his clothes and sweeping over every inch of his body. Chen Fuxue, who had never had much contact with girls, couldn't help but tense up.
In the past, he seldom went out, and wherever he went, he always dealt with men. This disciple who was under his name but whom he had never given much guidance was a woman, and they did not have much contact. She always kept a distance from him and called him "Master".
Suddenly being so close to the girl, the air around him was filled with her sweet scent, which seemed to be made even stronger by her body temperature. His already unclear mind felt a little dizzy, and he could only clench his palms tightly.
Ling Fuying finally decided to look away. Yuchi Xianyue might appear at any time, and she couldn't let him see her and Shen Fuxue together, otherwise her plan would fail.
"Master, I will leave first. You should come back slowly." After saying this, Ling Fuying planned to slip away from him, but Chen Fuxue blocked her way.
"You, why are you here?"
Chen Fuxue did not forget that tonight was the wedding day of Ling Fuying and Yuchi Xianyue. Logically, she should not be here.
"I'm just here to admire the moon." Ling Fuying said without any guilt.
Shen Fuxue didn't ask any more questions, "I'm sorry for hurting you."
He said sorry, but there was no regret in his eyes.
Even a little dazed.
Shen Fuxue glanced at the blood on the back of his hand.
The blood that had just seeped out of the wound on Fu Ying's neck dripped onto his skin.
At that moment, it was like a basin of boiling water was poured on the snow, and my blood boiled.
He was too sensitive to the smell and temperature of blood. Somehow, the blood in his body seemed to be drawn towards the girl in front of him.
He didn't know the reason. Perhaps it was because they were master and disciple? Or perhaps it was just the unique aura of a girl.
Just by looking at the wound on Ling Fuying's neck, his eyes became moist and he couldn't help but saliva flowed out of his mouth.
Shen Fuxue's words reminded Fu Ying that her neck was injured. She raised her hand and touched it, and she hissed in pain.
But at least the wound is healing and no blood is dripping.
"I'll help you heal your wounds." He said patiently.
Ling Fuying: Hmm?
Before she had time to refuse, Shen Fuxue stretched out his bony fingers and lightly touched her wound with his fingertips.
A bone-chilling chill and an indescribable numbness.
Ling Fuying tightened her neck. She had never been touched like this before, and her whole body was tense. She subconsciously avoided it, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.
"Master, it's getting late. I'll leave first." Time is pressing and she can't delay.
But she had just taken a step when she was stopped again.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"Master, you are so forgetful. This is my big day."
Chen Fuxue had indeed forgotten.
"What is this?" He spread out his hand, and in his palm was a round jade. It looked ordinary, but it had a familiar scent.
She glanced at it and shook her head. "Maybe it's just an ordinary jade. Where did you get it, Master?"
"There." Chen Fuxue looked somewhere.
It was in the crevice where she had hidden the photo stone before, and he didn't know when he found it.
Seeing Ping Ling Fu Ying had already cursed Chen Fu Xue in his heart. Does this look like he is unconscious? Even a fingernail-sized photo stone can be found.
If he could discover one, the others would be discovered as well, and the plan of secretly filming would be completely aborted.
She had to think of another way.
But what else can she do now? Her eyes fell on Shen Fuxue.
With an idea in mind, she quickly changed the subject, "Master, you didn't attend your disciple's wedding banquet?"
Chen Fuxue stroked the round jade in his hand. It felt delicate. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt a familiar temperature.
He glanced at Ling Fuying's hand. Was it her warmth?
"Master?"
Shen Fuxue came back to his senses, and only then did he realize what she had asked.
"I went."
"Then why are you here now?" Ling Fuying stared at him intently. Now she had finally gotten her revenge. Chen Fuxue had questioned her just now, and now it was his turn.
Ling Fuying actually knew that he had a cold attack tonight and naturally could not continue to stay at the wedding banquet. If that were the case, men from all directions would have pounced on him.
Chen Fuxue didn't know how to answer. His cold poison attack was a secret that could not be mentioned to others. Besides, no one had ever criticized his way of doing things. He always did what he wanted, so he chose to remain silent.
There was a sudden silence between the two of them.
After a moment, she said, "Master, today is my big day. My adoptive father has passed away, my brother didn't come, and you, representing Zheyuan Palace, also hurriedly left during the banquet. I know you don't like such lively occasions, but this is only a once in a while. Your attitude will surely make the people of the Three Thousand Realms look down on me. What should I do then?"
Chen Fuxue was slightly stunned. He had never said these words to him before, and no one had ever shown such an attitude in front of him. It seemed that his disciple's heart and eyes were full of him, relying on him and trusting him.
Chen Fuxue said hoarsely: "I didn't think it through."
"Haha, I was just kidding, Master."
The girl's eyes were as bright as candlelight, and his nose was filled with her sweet scent, a bit like... like the lotus root starch dumplings he had just eaten.
Chen Fuxue found that he seemed to have become a little strange, but he didn't hate it, and his heart even beat faster.
Ling Fuying was stared at by Chen Fuxue for too long. The silver-gray pupils were too cold, and the chill seemed to spread along his line of sight.
Her hair stood on end, and she couldn't help but suppress the smile on her face. Her interest in acting with him was also mostly gone.
But her attention was soon diverted. She noticed the changes in her body, looked at the man in front of her, took a step forward, and her expression became strange.
It seemed that it was not her illusion. Looking inward at her Dantian, she saw that her spiritual power was filling up at a speed visible to the naked eye, but soon the speed slowed down, and the change became negligible. Her looming soul seemed to have become more condensed.
Ling Fuying glanced at Chen Fuxue, "Master, if you want to make it up to me, why don't you promise me one thing?"
The previous plan failed, and now only Chen Fuxue can come and go freely in the Domain Lord's Mansion without disturbing any formation while carrying one person.
Shen Fuxue waited for her to continue.
"It's just a small matter. Master, are you unwilling to agree to your disciple's request?"
Seeing that he didn't answer, knowing that he wasn't so easy to fool, Ling Fuying simply laid out her story. Her expression became more serious. "My marriage to Yuchi Xianyue was just an arranged marriage. We have no romantic relationship. Now I regret it. Can you take me away from here?"
She observed Shen Fuxue, trying to understand his attitude. If she and Shen Fuxue had a good master-disciple relationship, there would be no need to worry. But the difficulty lay in the fact that they were a distant master-disciple relationship.
The chances of him agreeing were slim, but she didn't want to miss any opportunity.
Ling Fuying didn't put all her hopes on Shen Fuxue. If he didn't agree, she would just go back and confront Yuchi Xianyue.
Chen Fuxue did not answer.
Seeing his attitude, Fu Ying realized that her hopes were dashed, and she had no intention of wasting time on him.
"Since that's the case, Master, please forget what I just said."
Chen Fuxue was about to speak when he saw her turn and leave. The cold wind blew away the girl's breath. The sleeves of her red wedding dress were blown up by the wind and gently brushed past his fingertips. His heart suddenly felt empty.
Ling Fuying took a step forward and her wrist was held. The cold touch spread along Shen Fuxue's hand to the skin of her wrist.
He moved his wrist and looked at Shen Fuxue with a frown.
At this time, he also realized his offensive behavior. He was a little stunned. Even as a man, he had never touched a girl like this, but he still held the girl's wrist.
Soft and warm, a stark contrast to his cold, hard body. His fingertips pressed tightly against the girl's wrist, where her pulse beat, and her drooping eyelashes trembled.
This is what a girl’s hand looks like... It is incomparable to that piece of jade.
He was dazed and suddenly realized something.
When he looked up, he met Ling Fuying's eyes, and he finally let go of her hand.
Shen Fuxue opened his lips and was about to apologize, but suddenly saw the girl in front of him collapse.
He subconsciously reached out and caught her.
When Chen Fuxue let Fuying fall into his arms, it was as if an electric current passed through his body. His eyes were wet and his mind was blank. He almost lost his strength and couldn't hold her tightly.
…
Xuanji Palace.
The maid thought about it and still felt uneasy. Dongqing was stupid, but Ruixiang was cautious and steady.
Madam told them not to go, so they naturally had to obey. After all, they were to serve Madam. Although she and the Territory Lord were married, Yun Ling was unsure of Yuchi Xianyue's attitude.
It would be fine if he didn't like this lady, but what if he did? At least they couldn't make any mistakes in treating the lady.
Especially since it was the wedding night, although there was no custom in the Three Thousand Realms that newlywed women were not allowed to attend wedding banquets, she was still afraid that something might happen if no one was with her.
The Domain Lord's Mansion is too big and she is not familiar with it after all.
After some deliberation, Ruixiang asked Dongqing to stay here and she quickly followed to the front hall.
If the lady is safe and sound, then she will come back and will not annoy her. If she has gone somewhere else, she can find someone to look for her in time.
But if the lady gets lost, and the domain lord doesn't see her when he comes back, then these servants will be finished.
Ruixiang went all the way to the busy front hall. She took advantage of the flow of people to glance inside, but she did not see Ling Fuying beside Yuchi Xianyue.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly pulled Yuzhu, the maid who was carrying the wine pot out, and asked, "Have you seen the Madam?"
"Madam? Shouldn't she be in Xuanji Palace right now?" Yuzhu reacted. She quickly glanced at the Domain Lord sitting at the head of the hall, then walked to the corner with Ruixiang, carrying the wine jug. "Madam is missing?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Madam came to see the Territory Lord and told us not to follow. I came to check on her because I was worried. Don't tell anyone else."
When the domain lord blames them, it will be only them, the servants, who will suffer.
Ruixiang naturally knew that if something really happened, none of them would be able to escape. "Maybe the lady of the mansion has gone somewhere else. I'll send someone to look for her."
"Don't make a big fuss, let's go look for it first."
Yuzhu is a good sister who entered the mansion at the same time as Ruixiang, and she is the only one who has Yunling's trust.
"Okay, then we'll meet in the backyard."
"Then I'll go first."
They searched for nearly half an hour but didn't even see Ling Fuying's shadow. Ruixiang suddenly realized that something was wrong.
She had no choice but to go to the housekeeper in the mansion, "Housekeeper, the lady is missing, what should we do now?"
She was so anxious that she was running around in circles. The housekeeper thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter. The domain master doesn't care about this fake lady at all. Just go back."
"Are you really okay?"
"Don't I understand, Lord? He married this lady just to be a decoration."
This person once embezzled Ling Fuying's gold and silver jewelry when she was bedridden, and even maliciously delayed the maids from finding a doctor and swallowed the money. He was a very greedy person.
However, as the wedding banquet was about to end and Ling Fuying still had not been found, Ruixiang was extremely anxious, but the housekeeper didn't care at all.
"The Domain Lord may not even go to Xuanji Palace tonight. This palace is heavily guarded with traps and formations. Madam won't get lost. Don't worry, we'll definitely find her before tomorrow."
Ruixiang still didn't dare to relax. Seeing that the housekeeper was very confident, she went back and prepared to wait a little longer, hoping that the lady would be back soon.
However, the search in the mansion was discovered by the patrolling guards, and the matter reached the ears of Yuchi Xianyue. Since everyone in the mansion was alarmed, there was no reason why the housekeeper who was in charge of the mansion would not be unaware of it.
He didn't expect Ling Fuying to give him such a big surprise on his wedding day.
At this time, the drunk guests had all returned to their guest rooms to rest, and only Yuchi Xianyue and the maids and servants were left in the huge front hall.
The man leaned back in his chair and put down the wine jug.
The fair face was slightly flushed due to the smell of alcohol, and the narrow black eyes were sparkling, but the butler knelt on the ground in fear and did not dare to look up to see anything.
"When did Madam disappear?" asked Yuchi Xianyue.
The housekeeper's eyes flickered, and he became even more panicked when he heard the coldness in the Territory Lord's tone. He trembled and said, "About an hour ago."
Yuchi Xianyue didn't ask him any more questions.
A long period of dead silence.
"Have you searched everything?" Yuchi Xianyue spoke again.
"We looked everywhere in the house, but we couldn't find the lady." The housekeeper's face turned pale. This was not what he expected.
Yuchi Xianyue paused, "Have you also searched for Chuji Palace?"
The housekeeper was stunned. "Zhao Xuexianjun lives here, so we didn't disturb him."
He guessed the Territory Lord's intention and immediately said respectfully, "I'll go right away."
"No need for that. He likes quiet and doesn't like being disturbed. You should go over there and make him unhappy with me."
Yuchi Xianyue turned the wine cup, lowered his eyes in thought, and twinkling lights floated in his black eyes.
"Go down."
The butler hesitated. What about the lady?
But Yuchi Xianyue did not express his opinion, and seemed to not care at all where Ling Fuying had gone or whether she was missing. It seemed that this was indeed the way he treated the wife he married into the marriage.
Seeing that he did not punish him, the butler did not dare to say anything more. He hurriedly thanked him and left, feeling fortunate that this lady was not liked by the domain lord.
After leaving the front hall, the housekeeper broke out in a cold sweat, but before he could take a few steps, he heard Yuchi Xianyue say gently, "It's solved."
As soon as he finished speaking, several dark figures appeared out of nowhere, grabbed the terrified butler and disappeared. The screams stopped abruptly.
