Ao Yong climbed onto a huge coral reef, and from there he could climb over into the courtyard of the Queen's boudoir.
Suddenly he froze, because he noticed a person standing at the gate of the courtyard in the distance.
Kachir, the leader of the Dragon Palace guards!
Ao Yong's eyes widened. How could he be here?
The other party was the head of the Dragon King's personal guards, responsible for protecting the Dragon King's safety. They were practically inseparable on a daily basis.
The key point is that this guy is impervious to persuasion. He was originally a fierce general in the army, but he was not well received by the aristocratic circles.
But for some reason, he suddenly gained the Dragon King's favor and was promoted to the new commander of the guards.
Thinking about the other person's deeds and the scenes of every time he met him, Ao Yong always felt a little afraid of this guy. There seemed to be something about him that he couldn't see through.
The key point is that he's here, which means the Dragon King is here too.
He didn't dare to utter a sound, for fear of being discovered by Kalchi.
Wait a minute, he seems to be listening intently to something, and he's less alert than usual.
After hesitating for a long time, Ao Yong was still reluctant to leave. Under the cover of the coral reef, he quietly looked into the courtyard.
...
Meanwhile, in the palace, Shang Hongyu lay there, even more dazzling than the white jade bed beneath her.
Her chest heaved, and her breathing became somewhat disordered. After their intimate moment, she felt as if she had completely melted away.
Her beautiful, watery eyes held both shock and nervousness. She instinctively placed her hands lightly against the other person's chest, her voice trembling slightly:
"For ten thousand years, the women of our mermaid clan have upheld the belief of fidelity, never allowing any man other than their husband to touch them..."
Sensing a hint of hesitation and regret in her eyes, Zuan smiled knowingly: "How about I transform into the Dragon King's appearance again? Then I'll be your husband?"
He had already returned to his original appearance as soon as he started healing.
"No!" Shang Hongyu bit her red lips lightly, "I want your look."
"We've been husband and wife these past few days, so it doesn't count as... it doesn't count as breaking the vow, right?"
Her tone was somewhat flustered, as if she were trying to convince herself.
Zuan chuckled to himself. Beautiful women are all good at deceiving people, but he never expected that they would be so ruthless as to deceive even themselves.
"certainly."
Just as Zu'an was about to make a move, the other person stopped him again, and with a hint of shyness and pleading in his questioning eyes, said:
"I've never seen anyone like you before... Please, be gentle."
Zu An's breathing quickened suddenly. This woman had been teasing him all these days, and now he was finally scared?
How could we possibly follow her lead!
...
Upon hearing the sudden noise from inside the room, Ao Yong felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He wasn't some naive young man; he could easily understand what was happening inside. His beloved, beautiful, and gentle queen was currently...
His heart was bleeding, his fingers gripped the coral reef tightly, and in his turbulent emotions, he crushed the hard stone to pieces.
"Who goes there!"
Kachir had been watching the commotion inside the house, and only after hearing what had just happened did he nod in satisfaction. It should have been done long ago. He didn't know what that guy had been dawdling about before. From now on, the Queen was on their side, and it would be unlikely that she would turn against them.
At this moment, the commotion on the coral reef alerted him. He immediately waved his hand, and his sword shot out without even being drawn.
With a loud bang, the jet-black, hard sword plunged straight in, instantly disappearing completely into the soft coral!
Ao Yong was terrified and hurriedly used all his skills to escape. Fortunately, he had prepared a teleportation artifact in advance, and with the help of the loophole in the magic array that only he knew about, he barely managed to escape.
Kalchi tracked them down but eventually lost track of them. He frowned, realizing that he had been so focused on the room that he hadn't expected someone to sneak in.
He didn't know the other party's background and was really worried, so he summoned his men to search everywhere.
As for the Queen, now that things have progressed to that point, he doesn't need to worry about the rest.
That guy is incredibly lecherous; he could definitely conquer that proud queen completely.
...
Meanwhile, inside the room, Shang Hongyu's pupils gradually regained focus. She was initially bewildered, but then became extremely shy.
Did I faint just now, for a split second?
She couldn't help but bite his shoulder hard: "You're so mean! You promised me, but..."
“I didn’t agree to anything,” Zuan said with a mocking laugh.
“You…” Shang Hongyu recalled the situation just now, and the other party did not seem to have made a clear statement. “I have been deceived by your gentlemanly image all this time. You are clearly a beast!”
"Thank you for the compliment."
"This isn't a compliment!"
...
"By the way, there seemed to be some noise outside just now." Shang Hongyu was a Grandmaster after all, and even though she was half asleep, she still heard some noise.
Zuan replied, "That guy Ao Yong who loves his sister-in-law somehow got here and was discovered by Kachir, who is chasing him." With Zuan's current divine sense, every blade of grass and every tree in the entire palace area is in his mind.
Ao Yong's arrival was naturally not kept from him.
"What 'love-sister-in-law'? That sounds awful!" Shang Hongyu gently punched his chest, feigning annoyance.
“If it weren’t for love—sister-in-law, why would he come to your palace in the middle of the night?” Zu’an smiled. “In my opinion, that guy might be trying to win you over, thinking you hinted at something to him at the party.”
