Chapter 226 The Thoughts of Counterattack
Ye Luo didn't expect that after chatting with Xiao Huan for a few minutes, it was already late at night when she returned to her room.
Seeing Jun Yi sitting alone at the table, engrossed in reading the books, she asked in confusion, "Why aren't you resting yet?"
"Wait for you."
A smile played on Ye Luo's lips as she noticed the bed was empty. "Where's Xixi?" she asked.
"She got tired of playing with Nan Yaoyao, so she simply slept at her place."
Ye Luo was a little surprised, "Weren't you just arguing? How did you make up so quickly?"
"Children don't hold grudges overnight."
Ye Luo took off her outer robe and placed it aside, straddled his strong legs, kissed his thin lips, and said with certainty, "Were you doing this on purpose, hmm?"
Jun Yi's eyes flickered slightly, remaining noncommittal. He put down the book in his hand, placed his hands on her captivatingly slender waist, and said in a hoarse voice, "My Luo'er is so clever..."
A sly glint appeared in Ye Luo's eyes. He mischievously pinched her hand and chuckled, "Old Long, you've used up all your advances. You'll have to go hungry for now."
Jun Yi's deep eyes looked at him, unconsciously darkening slightly. He placed his large hand on the alluring waist and hips, and said in a hoarse voice, "Then... can I still buy on credit?"
"Promise me."
"To share a passionate encounter, such a delightful thing... don't you like it?"
"Baby... just give it to me."
That deep, sexy voice seemed to bewitch Ye Luo, and he almost nodded in agreement. Suddenly, he snapped back to reality and said angrily, "Bastard, you actually used magic on me!"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Luo'er, I was wrong, please stop pinching me!"
Ye Luo gave a displeased snort, released his ear, and asked, "What are you doing making this scene?"
"Look."
Jun Yi took the scroll from earlier. "I obtained this mind-controlling technique by chance, and I just wanted to test it on you."
Ye Luo took it and looked at it, then clicked her tongue in amazement and said, "Mind-controlling and soul-capturing... it seems quite effective for those with weak spiritual senses. Confiscated!"
Jun Yi smiled and said, "Your divine sense has become much stronger after cultivating the Great Divine Guidance Technique, so even though this is an advanced soul-capturing technique, it won't have much effect on you. This puts my mind at ease."
Ye Luo glanced at him with her beautiful eyes, "You really just want to give it a try?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi coughed lightly, his strong hand massaging Luo'er's lower back, and he said with a solicitous smile, "My darling Luo'er, don't be angry. Let your husband give you a massage, and you'll definitely win the competition tomorrow!"
"Mmm, that feels good... a little more to the left."
"Okay!"
Ye Luo rested her chin on his shoulder, making comfortable humming sounds, her soft, boneless fingers teasing his sexy throat in a playful manner.
Jun Yi's eyes were full of doting as he looked at the person who was teasing him so wantonly, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Little rascal, you don't know what's good for you, huh?"
Ye Luo grinned mischievously, buried her head in it, and gave it a quick suck, saying, "You've racked up so much debt... you have to give me some interest, right?"
He was quite displeased. Every time, he was tormented half to death by this guy, while he always looked refreshed.
hateful!
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Ye Luo's mind. She rolled her eyes and tentatively asked, "Jun Yi, we've always had a harmonious relationship, haven't we?"
Jun Yi noticed the mischievous glint in his eyes and chuckled, "So?"
"Then, would you like to change seats..."
"Oh? You want to be on top?" Jun Yi raised an eyebrow with a forced smile, then pinched the soft flesh of his buttocks hard and said fiercely, "You've got some nerve!"
"Ouch, it hurts!" Ye Luo said indignantly. "Hmph, you've done it so many times... can't you let me have it just once? You say you love me... can't you even do this little thing..."
"..."
Seeing the conflicted look on his face, Jun Yi struggled with the thought for a moment before saying, "If you want to, it's not impossible..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Luo was stunned and exclaimed excitedly, "You...you...you agreed?!"
Jun Yi hid a smile in his eyes, pinched his slender waist and coughed lightly, "Well... let's talk about it when your back is better."
"No, no, no! My back is all better!" Ye Luo's face was full of excitement as she pulled him, ready to launch her counterattack plan, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Your Majesty, your subordinate Ling Lie has something to report."
Jun Yi and Ye Luo exchanged a glance. It was already late at night, so something important must have happened. "Come in."
With a creak of the door, Ling Lie strode in and bowed, saying, "Your Excellency, I just received a message from the Heavenly Sect that the ancient teleportation array connecting the forbidden area to the upper realm has been destroyed!"
Who did this?
Ling Lie said, "Those captured cultivators self-destructed... The elders guessed, based on their cultivation techniques, that they were probably from the Glazed Pavilion."
"The elders?" Jun Yi frowned slightly and asked, "Where is Shuang Qiao? Isn't he with the Heavenly Sect?"
"Sect Master Shuang...it is said that he rushed to the Upper Realm after receiving a letter from the Grand Palace Master."
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi frowned and remained silent. There must be a conspiracy behind the destruction of the teleportation array for no reason. It seems that Lin Chen does not want him to return to the Upper Realm.
"How long will it take to repair this ancient teleportation array?"
Ling Lie replied, "The elders said it would take anywhere from six months to a year, mainly because the array stones were shattered into pieces, and those rare materials are extremely difficult to find..."
Jun Yi slammed his hand on the table, his face contorted with anger. "How could the Heavenly Sect be so lax? They didn't even know someone had infiltrated the forbidden area?!"
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
After pondering for a long time, Ye Luo said, "Since that day, Lin Chen has closed the Liuli Pavilion and never showed his face again. He has probably returned to the Upper Realm. He went to great lengths to keep you here, so he must be planning something. You should find a way to return to the Dragon Lord Palace as soon as possible."
Jun Yi looked at him and his eyes flickered slightly. He sighed and said, "Luo'er, you don't know this. Tianzong only has one ancient teleportation array. Even if I wanted to return immediately, I couldn't."
Ye Luo asked, "Aren't there any other teleportation arrays?"
Ling Lie said, "Young Master, some reclusive families might have them, but it would take time to find them. Currently, we know of three places with teleportation arrays."
"Which three places?" Ye Luo asked.
Ling Lie replied, "Star Pavilion, Tantai Immortal Mountain, and the Xiao family in the Central Region."
"However, the Star Pavilion has always been skilled in formations, making it difficult to find a suitable location for a sect. The Tantai Immortal Mountain, which considers itself a descendant of the immortal race, is extremely arrogant and xenophobic. Furthermore, the Xiao family of the Central Region has no connection with us..."
Ye Luo nodded knowingly. The lower realm had once suffered a great battle that shattered the spiritual veins, making it impossible for cultivators to ascend to the upper realm through cultivation. To possess such an ancient teleportation array was an extremely rare and precious opportunity, so how could it be easily given to outsiders?
After pondering for a long time, Jun Yi said, "This matter can't be delayed any longer. Ling Lie, go and arrange the departure. Let's go to Tantai Immortal Mountain as soon as possible to try. If that doesn't work, we'll think of another way."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
