Chapter 84 Is the handsome older brother pitiful? (Revised)
"Head Steward, what's going on? Where is my Xi'er?" Bo Yiyan no longer cared about manners and grabbed the head steward by the collar.
"Don't be anxious, it must be that the Palace Master has summoned her alone," the head steward hurriedly reassured her.
In fact, he didn't understand why the palace master would summon a little girl alone. When he reported to the two men, he mainly talked about the uncle, and the niece was just mentioned casually.
Logically speaking, even if a private audience were to be held, it should only be with this uncle.
If the head steward couldn't understand it, the second steward couldn't understand it even more. However, when she thought of her heartfelt affection for Xi'er, she had a reasonable explanation.
"Fellow Daoist, your little niece has a lovely daughter. I liked her the moment I saw her in the market."
The Palace Master must have been pleased to see her, which is why he summoned her for a private audience.
Manager Liu's words did not comfort Bo Yiyan; instead, they made him even more uneasy.
What if this Palace Master is a pervert who likes older men dating younger women?
With his current strength, he can't even beat this head steward. If Xi'er really catches the eye of the palace master, he might not be able to take her away even if he fights to the death.
Seeing his anxious expression, the head steward said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Bo, please rest assured. The Palace Master is of a tranquil nature and dislikes worldly affairs. He spends most of his time in seclusion."
Your niece must be exceptionally talented to have caught his attention.
If she could catch the eye of the Palace Master, she might very well become the young mistress of Night Pool Palace in the future.
“We…have no intention of climbing the social ladder. The reason we came here in such a roundabout way to deliver this message is simply to avoid causing widespread bloodshed,” Bo said, neither humble nor arrogant.
"I know Fellow Daoist Bo is not the kind of person to curry favor with the powerful, but the will of the Palace Master must be obeyed by everyone in the Cloud Abyss Upper Realm. I think you understand that, right?" The head steward said, half reminding and half threatening.
He had a good impression of the uncle and nephew and did not want to use his power to oppress them. However, he was afraid that Bo Yiyan was arrogant and might accidentally offend the palace master, in which case the uncle and nephew would be the ones to suffer.
Bo Yiyan understood that with his strength, he was no match for Night Pool Palace, so he could only endure for the time being.
But he had made up his mind that if Xi'er cried for help, he would rush in to save her at all costs.
At the same time, Xi'er was standing in the spacious bedroom.
Before her was a large, comfortable soft couch, and on the couch was a man with long, flowing hair that was black, shiny, and smooth.
He was so handsome that Xi'er could only describe him with one word: unparalleled beauty!
Although she had been surrounded by handsome men and beautiful women since childhood, the stunning appearance of the man before her still shocked her.
At this moment, the incomparably beautiful young man was staring at her intently with his dark eyes, as if trying to see through every bone in her body.
Being stared at like that, even by an extremely handsome man, made Xi'er feel a little uncomfortable.
She pouted and said, "Handsome guy, even though you're good-looking, didn't your parents teach you that staring at people like that is impolite?"
The man on the soft couch was reclining, one hand supporting his chin. He had been looking lazy, but after hearing Xi'er's words, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha! I knew I hadn't chosen the wrong person. Only she would ignore my oppressive aura and treat me like an ordinary person."
He was laughing when suddenly tears fell inexplicably. He murmured, "Do you know how long I've been looking for you? A full thirty thousand years, four hundred and thirty-two thousand hours."
Do you know that every single hour, my heart aches for you? My heart has already shattered into pieces during this long wait!
Xi'er looked at the man in front of her and couldn't help but frown: How can such a handsome young man be a lunatic?
He's laughing one minute and crying the next. What if he suddenly goes crazy and strangles her?
As soon as the thought popped into her head, she instinctively wanted to ask Bo Yiyan for help.
After all, her three contracted purple demon servants were seriously injured, and Fusheng and Ruomeng were also asleep, so there was no one who could help her.
However, considering the unfathomable cultivation level of the person in front of her, she dared not act rashly.
She knew that with just the two of them combined, they might not even be able to successfully fight him, let alone escape.
Panda once said that most mentally ill people don't attack others unless they are provoked.
In that case, she decided to try to appease him instead.
Thinking of this, she formed a hand seal and cast a purification seal, a seal that the Holy Maiden of the Holy Witch Clan was required to learn.
Whenever one encounters defilement, whether it be spiritual or environmental pollution, this purification mudra is effective.
As Ye Tanji was immersed in the sadness of the past, he suddenly sensed a special spiritual force silently approaching him.
His body instinctively resisted unfamiliar spiritual energy, but this particular spiritual energy, like a gentle spring rain, naturally seeped into his body.
As soon as it entered his meridians, a warm feeling came over him, but the warmth was mixed with a trace of coolness, like the coolness of mint in the warm spring breeze.
This feeling quickly disarmed him, like a drizzle in the desert. He didn't resist it; instead, he wanted it to continuously enter his body.
He hadn't felt this comfortable and relaxed in a long time, and before he knew it, he was starting to feel sleepy.
He fell into a deep sleep after only fifteen minutes.
This sudden turn of events left Xi'er completely dumbfounded.
This lunatic is definitely not a normal person. What kind of good person would fall asleep instantly in front of a stranger?
Her intuition told her that this lunatic was probably affected by her purification seal, so she dared not stop and continued to output a steady stream of magical energy in order to maintain the purification seal.
Ye Tanji slept soundly, dreaming of a warm breeze. The coldness that had plagued him since birth was miraculously cured.
He subconsciously kicked away the blanket made of ninth-tier fire raven feathers covering him, revealing his tall and slender body hidden under a fire fox fur cloak.
The sleeping beauty's long legs were faintly visible beneath the fox fur coat. If this scene were to be depicted on an adult woman, she would probably be unable to resist getting a nosebleed.
However, Xi'er is only seventeen years old and knows nothing about matters of love and romance, so she doesn't have this kind of trouble at all.
She was just a little tired. Although the purification seal didn't consume a lot of her spiritual power, she couldn't keep it up all the time!
She tentatively reduced the output of her witch spirit power, and then saw her handsome brother on the soft couch frown, his body instinctively curling up into a ball, clearly shivering from the cold.
"Sigh! Who told him to be such a handsome older brother? And so pitiful, I guess I'll reluctantly help him." Xi'er couldn't help but sigh.
