Chapter 401 Extra Chapter, Zhuoyuan X Shuangqiao (Part 5): The Misunderstanding of the Delicate Little Shuangzi (The End)
Just as he was secretly grumbling to himself, Rong Xu suddenly let out a cold laugh: "I was just wondering how to handle him, but I didn't expect you to come to my doorstep. It's really heaven helping me, hahaha!"
Shuangqiao listened to his words and felt completely confused, not understanding what he was saying.
"Go! Grab that kid!" Rong Xu waved his hand, and the crowd behind him rushed forward, their target Shuangqiao in the distance.
"Are you crazy?!" Shuangqiao was completely baffled. What was the point of threatening him by grabbing him?
He yelled and turned to run, only to realize that no one was following him. "Run! What are you all standing there for?!"
The elders and the others came to their senses and tried to run towards him, but they were all blocked by the barrier and could not get in at all.
Now it was Shuang Qiao's turn to be stunned. He, an outsider, had entered the barrier without any hindrance. "What's going on?"
At this moment, hope shone in the elder's eyes, and he shouted at Shuang Qiao, "Go quickly and find the Palace Master to report the current situation to him!"
Upon hearing this, Shuangqiao didn't have time to think much. He nodded, turned around, and ran into the forbidden area, muttering as he ran, "Damn it, if I had known it would be this troublesome, I would never have come!"
White mist swirled within the forbidden area. Shuangqiao, like a headless fly, ran around aimlessly for a long time, but still couldn't find any trace of Zhuoyuan.
He stood with his hands on his hips, panting heavily, and plopped down on a nearby rock. "Damn it, this place is so small, where can anyone go?"
Considering the situation outside, he dared not delay any longer. So he got up, recklessly shouting at the top of his lungs, "You son of a bitch, Zhuoyuan, where are you?!"
"If you don't come out soon, your Dragon Palace will be gone!!"
"Zhuoyuan!!!"
At this moment, several thousand meters underground.
Zhuoyuan transformed into a black dragon, curled up in the icy pool of the ice cave, relieving the heat brought on by his mating season.
He seemed to hear a call from above, which made him open his eyes in surprise. "Shuangqiao?"
Then he looked up and listened intently, but found no sound, so he closed his eyes again with a self-deprecating smile.
But before long, the voice rang out again. He opened his eyes in disbelief and transformed into a streak of light, flying upwards.
Shuangqiao shouted for a while, but when he found that no one responded, he was about to move to another place to continue when suddenly the ground where he was standing shook and a figure flew out, making him lose his balance and fall backward.
Just then, the person in front of him reacted quickly, wrapping their arms around his waist. "Are you alright?"
The deep, familiar voice in his ear made Shuangqiao look up sharply. He saw Zhuoyuan staring at him with a look of joy on his face: "I've finally found you!"
Zhuo Yuan asked in confusion, "What are you doing here?"
Upon hearing his question, Shuang Qiao's peach blossom eyes darted around, and she immediately changed the subject, saying seriously, "Oh dear, don't worry about that. Something big has happened outside. Your uncle, Rong Xu, has rebelled and is slaughtering the people of the Dragon Venerable Palace!"
"Rongxu?"
Shuangqiao looked indignant. "Yeah, he was so arrogant! He even said he'd capture you and then..."
He paused, somewhat embarrassed to continue.
Zhuoyuan looked down at him, raised his hand to wipe the dirt off his cheek, and said, "You stay here and don't go out."
After giving a brief explanation, Zhuo Yuan's powerful spiritual energy surged, instantly transforming him into a giant black dragon, which flew towards the outside of the forbidden area.
Hearing the dragon's roar, Shuangqiao raised his hand to touch the cheek that had been lightly touched, and immediately wondered to himself, "So... what am I here for?"
The big jerk who bullied him failed to teach him a lesson and even kindly started helping him with household chores?
Moreover, how come he actually saw a hint of tenderness in that guy's eyes just now?
"Aaaaaah, I'm going crazy! It's a hallucination, it can only be a hallucination!!!"
Shuangqiao squatted on the ground, holding his head in his hands. After reflecting on his actions and struggling with the situation for a long time, he decided to go outside and check the situation. He didn't want to die here for no reason.
But when he sneaked out, the battle outside seemed to have ended. Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
Ultimately, no matter how powerful Zhuo Yuan is, he's still just one person. If he were to be surrounded and attacked by those people...
Thinking of this, Shuangqiao felt a little anxious and quickened her pace as she searched outside. "That bastard, could he really be dead?"
Just as he finished speaking, a series of huge rocks collapsed from the distant mountain peak. He could vaguely see two giant dragons locked in combat, leaving behind a scene of devastation and ruin.
Zhuoyuan, in his black dragon form, bit the neck of the brown dragon beneath him, and a mournful dragon roar rang out. He was then thrown heavily from the sky, and blood rained down, staining the earth.
"The Grand Palace Master has won!!"
"Great! We're all saved!!"
A cheer came from afar, and the tribesmen who had been watching the battle from the ruins ran out excitedly.
The atmosphere was so inviting that even Shuangqiao couldn't help but smile, "This guy is pretty amazing..."
Just then, the elder beside her, limping, came over and grabbed Shuangqiao's hand excitedly, saying, "Madam, we won! We won!"
"Hehe, congratulations!" Shuangqiao offered his congratulations somewhat awkwardly, but suddenly the smile on his face froze.
Madam?!
What the heck?
"Who is your wife?!" Shuangqiao flung his hand away, her face filled with shame and anger.
Seeing his reaction, the elder mistakenly thought he was shy and chuckled, "Madam, there's no need to be shy. Even the Palace Master treats you with such respect—"
"Shut up!"
Shuang Qiao interrupted him, his face flushed. The two of them had been intimate a year ago. How could he still have Zhuo Yuan's scent on him?
Damn it!
These aren't dragons, they're all fucking dogs!
Shuangqiao turned to leave angrily, but was stopped by a streak of light that had arrived just in time. "Where are you going?"
Zhuoyuan, dressed in tattered clothes, transformed into human form and stood before them. His long black hair was disheveled, and his face and the corner of his mouth were stained with blood, yet his noble air remained undiminished.
Shuangqiao stared at him for a moment, then awkwardly turned her face away. "I'm going home..."
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yuan's eyes darkened, and he grabbed Zhuo Yuan's wrist, saying, "Wait a few more days before you leave."
"I don't want to!"
As Shuangqiao was being dragged along, she caught sight of many curious glances, and a surge of anger welled up inside her. In a fit of shame and embarrassment, she slapped him across the face.
The sound of the slap was deafening, leaving everyone around stunned. Shuang Qiao seemed to realize something and instantly became somewhat timid, "Who, who told you to pull me? And why should I stay..."
"On what grounds?" Zhuo Yuan's face was grim, his eyes flashing with flames. "Then I'll tell you 'on what grounds'!"
After saying that, Zhuoyuan's face was full of anger, and he grabbed him and flew towards the forbidden area.
"Elder, will Madam be alright?"
"What could possibly be wrong?" The elder's eyes narrowed slightly. "Never mind that, hurry up and clean up. We might have a wedding later!"
Inside the underground ice cave.
Shuangqiao was thrown onto an ice bed, shivering from the cold. "Why did you bring me here? Do you want me to freeze to death?"
"Hmph, if you hadn't drugged me and triggered my heat, the Dragon Palace wouldn't have been taken advantage of by Rong Xu. Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"
"Huh?" Shuangqiao was shocked after hearing this. He didn't expect that this beast was no ordinary animal. His land was about to be ruined, and his wicked mating season was still not over.
Now, suddenly being accused of such a grave crime, even the young Shuangqiao panicked. Trembling with cold, he cried out in grievance, "You've been raping me for a month already, isn't the punishment enough?"
When Zhuoyuan saw his reddened eyes, he felt his breath catch in his throat, and the heat he had been holding back rose again. He grabbed his chin, lowered his head, and kissed him. "Stay here and stay with me."
Hearing the voice filled with desire, Shuangqiao seemed to be reminded of alluring memories, and unconsciously squeezed her legs together, "I won't..."
He spoke weakly, which sounded like a childish pout to Zhuoyuan. Without saying anything more, Zhuoyuan ripped off his clothes and pressed down on him, only to be startled by the cold and bounce up, crying out, "Cold, cold, cold!"
Zhuoyuan sighed, "Then sit on my lap."
Shuangqiao resigned herself to her fate and obediently let him hold her in his arms, somewhat craving the warmth of his embrace. "It's freezing... Can't we go outside? Why do we have to stay here?"
"I'm afraid you won't be able to handle things outside."
Zhuoyuan supported his back and leaned down to kiss his collarbone. "Last time, didn't you faint several times?"
"Beast!"
Thinking of this, Shuangqiao felt annoyed. Whether it was last time or now, he was just a tool for venting his anger.
Although it was indeed his fault, he still felt a little upset. "Why don't you go find the mother dragon?"
With Zhuoyuan's status and appearance, he didn't believe he wouldn't be able to find someone to serve him.
Zhuo Yuan looked up at him, his eyes blazing with anger. "Why should others have to clean up the mess you've made!"
"I—!" Shuangqiao was speechless again, and lowered her eyes in annoyance.
This person...
Indeed, one cannot easily make mistakes, otherwise one will be held hostage by others and suffer the torment of one's conscience.
Distracted.
Suddenly feeling the warmth beside his ear, he let out a soft moan and half-heartedly got up, then gave up his last struggle and let the person in front of him do as he pleased.
Suddenly, he remembered Rong Xu's words in the hall, about personally taking action to obtain direct bloodlines and such...
This made his heart skip a beat, and he pushed away the face that was getting closer with his fingers. "You...you won't make me pregnant, will you?"
He had no intention of inheriting the family business; he just wanted to pay off his debts and leave without causing any big trouble!
"You're a man, what are you thinking?"
A sly glint flashed in Zhuo Yuan's eyes, and a cold smile played on his lips. "As a tool for venting your anger, you'd better behave yourself and not overstep your bounds by coveting anything else!"
"I...I understand..."
You're overthinking it; he didn't!
...
Pulled back to reality, Shuangqiao's eyes welled with tears, and she muttered in a wronged tone, "You said those things yourself back then, now you remember them, right?!"
"Uh..." Zhuo Yuan was a little stumped. He used to make up nonsense when he was young and impetuous, just to keep him by his side.
I can't believe that idiot actually ate the heart back then, and he's still complaining about it now...
Zhuoyuan: "Idiot."
"You're the stupid one!" Shuangqiao pushed him away and got up, picking up her clothes from the ground and putting them on, but the man behind her hugged her tightly. "Don't be angry."
"Hmph!" Shuangqiao snorted coldly without turning her head, and muttered in dissatisfaction, "Why bother with all this trouble? I'm leaving, and a fairy will naturally bear your offspring. Shouldn't you be secretly happy?"
Zhuoyuan: "Hmm? What fairy?"
"You're still trying to renege!" Shuangqiao said angrily, "That little fairy who just went out, she comes looking for you almost every day, and you still want to fool me!"
"Her."
Suddenly, Zhuo Yuan's eyes darkened, and he looked at him with a mocking smile, "You've gotten bold, daring to send someone to spy on me?"
"I...I...I didn't!" Shuangqiao rolled her eyes and said angrily, "Don't even think about changing the subject!"
"You really are..." Zhuo Yuan's eyes were full of doting, and he pulled him to sit on his lap and chuckled, "I spent a lot of money to invite her here, specifically to prepare pills to strengthen your body. What are you thinking about?"
Upon hearing this, Shuangqiao's face showed a moment of surprise. "I'm perfectly healthy, I don't need any of that at all."
Zhuo Yuan lowered his gaze and touched the unfinished, eerie runes on his lower abdomen. "We didn't need to do that before, but we can't be careless about it now..."
Shuangqiao's cheeks flushed red. "I didn't agree!"
"Hmm? It's too late to refuse." Zhuoyuan drew a few lines on his chest with his fingertips, which held spiritual power, and suddenly a black dragon-shaped pattern appeared.
"Hey, what's this?"
"The Dragon Clan's Heart Imprint".
Shuangqiao looked surprised. "When did you get married? I have no recollection of it!"
Zhuo Yuan's face was full of resentment as he said in a deep voice, "You really don't remember?"
Shuangqiao thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Hey." Zhuo Yuan raised an eyebrow, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "When we were in the cave, you seemed to be too happy and lost your mind. You kept pestering me, saying 'I like you,' and then we formed a hand seal."
Shuangqiao was dumbfounded. He had absolutely no recollection of it. So the heart seal had been formed back then?
Suddenly, he seemed to understand something, so the change in his physique was also due to this guy's doing?
No wonder the elders used to call him "Madam" when they saw him, and he was ashamed and thought it was because... It turns out they felt a connection between their hearts.
Seeing the person in his arms, who kept sighing and staring blankly, Zhuoyuan asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Um?"
Shuangqiao looked up at him, and after a moment said, "You...aren't you afraid that if something happens to me, it will endanger your life?"
Zhuoyuan did not answer, but lowered his head and kissed his lips with a soft smile, the answer was self-evident.
Without you, there is no joy in this place. I wish to be with you year after year, forever.
This life is enough.
