Chapter 1009 Embezzlement



Having just talked to Xiao Yao about Pei Mianman, Zu An could no longer suppress his longing for her. In addition, now that Xiao Yao has left, there is no one to protect her.

With that thought in mind, he no longer hesitated, changed his clothes, and soon disappeared into the night sky.

He arrived at the Pei residence and looked around. Although the residence was heavily guarded, it was much less guarded than during the day when it was completely secure.

It seems that they searched during the day but found no dangerous individuals, and since their wives also needed to rest at night, it was impossible to have guards every three or five steps.

Under the cover of night, Zuan sneaked in quietly. He had been there once during the day, so this time he was quite familiar with the place.

With his cultivation level and the map-hanging function of the jade cong, he quickly arrived at Pei Mianman's courtyard.

This time, without Xiao Yao guarding him, he went in without alerting anyone.

Since the first floor was where the maids lived, Zu An didn't want to disturb them, so he simply tiptoed up and climbed into the second floor.

He was excited; he could finally meet Da Manman.

He was pondering what to say as his first words to the other person when he suddenly felt dizzy and everything went black.

He was startled and quickly turned around to look behind him.

Although it was already night, lanterns were hung everywhere in the Pei family mansion, so you could still see some light. But behind him, it was pitch black, and there was no trace of the scene when he came.

Zuan felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being swallowed up by a dark beast.

Just then, a gust of wind came, and he quickly dodged to the side.

But his opponent didn't give him a chance to catch his breath and attacked instantly.

No matter how Zaun dodged, the opponent's attacks always enveloped him.

Because he was blind, Zu An's martial arts skills were greatly diminished, and he was constantly at a disadvantage.

He wondered if the other party was completely unaffected.

In that exchange just now, his opponent was agile and his judgment of where he would land was very accurate each time.

etc!

A sudden thought struck him: Could it be...?

"Manman?"

"Azu?"

Just then, the two shouted in unison.

"Is it really you?" Zuan was both surprised and delighted.

At that moment, the surrounding darkness vanished instantly, and soft candlelight appeared before them, revealing a woman's boudoir that was decorated with great elegance.

However, Zuan had no time to look around, his eyes fixed on the woman in front of him.

With her flawless, oval face and signature alluring, expressive peach blossom eyes, she was gazing at him with teary eyes. Who else could it be but Da Manman?

"Ah Zu!" Seeing Zu An remove her mask, Pei Mianman could no longer hold back and ran straight into her arms. The whole process was so shaky and impactful that one had to worry whether the buttons on her clothes would hold up.

A young couple who had been separated for a long time hugged each other tightly, as if they were trying to pull each other into their arms.

Smelling that familiar fragrance and feeling that voluptuous body, Zu An couldn't help but laugh and said, "Loosen up a bit, you're making it hard for me to breathe."

"You're so annoying~" Pei Mianman playfully punched his chest, then excitedly pulled him to sit down beside her. "I heard from the maid that at the banquet tonight to welcome the imperial envoy, a man surnamed Zu shone brightly. I was wondering if it could be you, but it really is. Am I dreaming?"

"Of course it's not a dream, I'm standing right in front of you, feel my heartbeat if you don't believe me." Zu'an took her hand and placed it on his chest, looking at her tenderly, "Manman, you've lost weight."

"Hmph, it's your fault for not coming to see me for so long." Pei Mianman complained, but still poured him a cup of tea with concern. "Have some tea to sober up. You smell like alcohol, you stink."

Zuan took the teacup and laughed, "Did you spot me just now by the smell of alcohol?"

"Yes, I was wondering which scoundrel was so bold as to try and take advantage of me after just a few drinks. I was about to teach him a lesson, but it turned out to be you." Pei Mianman spoke while pressing herself against the table, seemingly to save energy, she placed her chest directly on the table and looked at him with a smile.

"What was that darkness just now? Was it Fu Hao Xiao Zun?" Zu An asked curiously.

“Yes, I got it when we went to the secret realm together last time. It can create a dark domain where the other party can't see anything, but I can see as if it were daytime.” Pei Mianman stretched out her fair palm, and a miniature bronze artifact floated in her palm, slowly rotating. It was clear that she had completely refined it.

"This thing is really powerful; I almost fell for its trick just now." Looking at Fu Hao Owl, Zu An couldn't help but think of the days the two of them spent in Yin Ruins.

Pei Mianman clearly thought the same thing as him, and her eyes became even gentler: "Azu, your cultivation is getting higher and higher. Just now I was shocked that the opponent could dodge my attacks every time, even though they couldn't see me."

“Actually, I came to find you during the day.” Zu An said, patting his thigh. Pei Mianman understood, smiled, and sat down next to him, snuggling into his arms.

"So that was you during the day. Did that drunkard hurt you?" Pei Mianman realized and began to examine his hand from head to toe.

"Don't worry, it's nothing." Zu An smiled. "Do you know Xiao Yao?"

Pei Mianman snorted: "Just an annoying drunkard."

“He’s been quite good to you, always protecting you in secret,” Zuan explained.

“Who needs his protection? In the end, he’s just feeling guilty.” Pei Mianman’s voice was somewhat cold.

"Guilt?" Zuan was taken aback, feeling that the information he was getting from the two of them was not quite the same.
