Chapter 138 Su Yuyao's Hatred Wavers
Seeing that Xuanfeng's expression was a bit off, Su Yuyao continued, "There are advantages to doing this! First, Granny Wen was planted by Qinggan, and the place she arranged must have some hidden secrets, so having Aunt Yuqing guard it for us will prevent someone with ulterior motives from taking it over! Second, having Aunt Yuqing with a formal identity will make everyone look at you with new respect. You are a wise and virtuous person who wins people over with your character!"
Xuanfeng looked at Su Yuyao's scheming face, suppressed his smile, and asked, "Where is Lord Guan Xiao?"
"Lord Guan Xiao? Of course, we need to find a suitable person for him, so that no one can take advantage of the situation again!"
"My lord!" Guan Xiao knelt down on both knees and kowtowed to the ground, saying, "This humble servant knows his mistake! Because of my selfish desires, such a disaster has been caused. Please punish me, my lord!"
Xuanfeng glanced at Guan Xiao, still angry. "Guan Yue, take your father away! Lock him up in a room!"
"Yes!" Guan Yue walked to Guan Xiao's side, squatted down, hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took Guan Xiao's arm. "Father, let's go."
Guan Xiao's body trembled. Since that incident, his own son had never been so close to him.
A wave of bitterness, accompanied by grievance and suppressed emotions, welled up in my eyes.
Guan Xiao choked up as he stood up with Guan Yue's help, wiping away his tears, and gladly accepted the punishment of being confined.
"Miss Yao'er! It's all burned! What else is there to burn?!" Bi Rong looked at the ashes of the corpse, still feeling unsatisfied.
Xuanfeng was already furious with Guan Xiao, but he couldn't bring himself to punish him. At this moment, Bi Rong's untimely appearance gave Xuanfeng a chance to vent his anger. "Bi Rong! Haven't you burned enough people?!"
“My lord! It was Miss Yao’er who ordered the burning…” Bi Rong was speaking when Xuan Feng kicked him hard.
"Flying Eagle!" Xuanfeng shouted, "Throw Bi Rong into the lake!"
"Eh? My lord! No! I..." Bi Rong clutched his leg, sitting on the ground pleading, "I was just following orders..."
"Bi Rong! Don't you like playing with fire? Go and boil the lake water! Don't come up until the lake water is boiling!" Xuan Feng said casually.
"What?!" Bi Rong's eyes widened. "Lake water? And it's boiled?"
“Yes! Go!” Xuanfeng winked at Bi Rong.
Bi Rong nodded as if he understood, "Ah! Oh! Okay!"
After saying that, he quickly got up, grabbed the eagle, and left.
Xuanfeng then looked at Qimen.
Qi Men smiled slightly and said, "Lord Langzhi! Let's go and rest for a while, and give Yao'er and you some time to discuss Miss Yuqing's matter!"
Even if Lang Zhi were stupid, he could understand that this was Xuan Feng's intention: to send them all away so that he and Su Yuyao could have a chance to be alone.
He snorted, walked to the steps, plopped down, and said, "I'll wait here! I won't delay their discussion!"
Looking at Langzhi's appearance, Xuanfeng knew that this stubborn spider would definitely not leave.
He sighed and looked back at Yinhao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground. Langzhi hadn't sent him away, so Yinhao... well, let him be!
Xuanfeng looked down at the charred ground, then looked up to smell the scorching smell of rotting corpses in the air, and finally turned to look at Su Yuyao, who had grown up in an instant but was not yet fully grown.
"Girl, I will think carefully about Miss Yuqing's matter. Once I've made up my mind, I will give you an answer."
Su Yuyao understood that Xuanfeng was always cautious and would not make promises so quickly about things that were uncertain.
“Okay! I’ll give you time to think it over!” Su Yuyao said, raising her fair face. “But the time can’t be too long, and the place can’t be too small! Aunt Yuqing wants to fence off land to raise chickens and ducks! It would be best to have extra land to grow some vegetables! A house is also essential! I’m also planning to give her the white rice cakes to take with her, so we need a place that can be used as a stable!”
"How about this!" Xuanfeng walked up to Su Yuyao with his hands behind his back, lowered his head, and said with a smile, "Let's also fence off a piece of land in the lake for her, so she can raise fish there too! How about that?"
"That would be great! But... how do we claim land in the lake?" Su Yuyao asked, puzzled.
Looking at Su Yuyao's serious expression, Xuanfeng finally couldn't help but smile indulgently, "My silly girl! How can you be so cute?!"
Su Yuyao's heart began to pound. Although her hatred was enough to make her hate Xuanfeng to death, facing Xuanfeng's face, hearing his voice, and smelling his scent...
Her legs went weak again! She had the urge to lunge forward again…
Su Yuyao! You spineless coward! He's your enemy!
Su Yuyao wanted to bring herself to her senses, so she raised her hand and slapped herself in the face.
Xuanfeng raised his hand to block and grabbed Su Yuyao's wrist.
"Girl, the one you should hit is me!" Xuan Feng's deep blue eyes pierced Su Yuyao's heart. "It's all my fault!"
Xuanfeng placed Su Yuyao's hand in his palm, and used his right index and ring fingers to make a little figure, slowly kneeling down in Su Yuyao's palm.
“My good girl, I was wrong, please forgive me! As for… your hatred, the culprit is indeed me! Then you should stay by my side to punish me!” Xuan Feng held Su Yuyao’s hand in his, gently stroking it, and then tried to pull it closer to his chest. “Girl, you can punish me however you want! Just don’t be angry…”
Su Yuyao already loved Xuanfeng, and even though she harbored deep hatred for him, she still longed for his embrace. Now, after being coaxed like this, Su Yuyao's resolve wavered even further...
Xuanfeng tried to support Su Yuyao's shoulders, bent down, and carefully whispered in her ear, "Little girl, please! Let me hug you! I missed you!"
All of Su Yuyao's hatred was instantly overwhelmed by her longing for Xuanfeng. She pouted, "No hugging allowed..."
Xuanfeng's heart finally settled down. He knew how difficult it was for Su Yuyao to say "Don't hug me"!
He suddenly pulled Su Yuyao into his arms, greedily inhaling the unique peach scent emanating from her.
"Who told you to hug me... Don't hug me! You stinky turtle!" Su Yuyao flailed a few times symbolically in Xuanfeng's arms.
"Hey?! Hey!" Langzhi was so anxious when she saw her precious daughter being bullied again that she jumped up to stop it.
"Lord Langzhi!" Qimen quickly grabbed Langzhi, "Let the children handle their own affairs! Let's not get involved!"
"What do you mean 'don't get involved'?! Can't you see my daughter is going to be bullied again...?!" Langzhi looked on in surprise as Su Yuyao twisted her body in Xuanfeng's arms, crying with tears streaming down her face. Xuanfeng held Su Yuyao with one arm and wiped away her tears with the other.
"Girl, don't cry. It was indeed my fault that your family was destroyed, so God punished me and made me fall into your hands!"
"You filthy bastard! How did you fall into my hands? It was clearly me who fell..." Su Yuyao cried, "You're the one who caused me to lose my father..."
“I can be your father! I’m definitely old enough!” Xuanfeng said softly.
"Then... I don't have a mother anymore..."
"I can be your mother too... I'll comfort you..."
"My pothos..."
“I can do anything for you! Or, after I’m done with this, I can help you bathe?” Xuanfeng said, biting Su Yuyao’s earlobe. “I’ve seen Bai Er help you bathe before… I know how…”
"What?!" Su Yuyao looked at Xuanfeng in surprise. "How did you see that?!"
"The Joyful Bell! Not only can you listen to it, you can also...see it!" Xuanfeng said mysteriously.
"What?!" Su Yuyao's face flushed red. "You?! You saw me through the Joyful Heart Bell...?"
"So beautiful!" Xuanfeng kissed Su Yuyao's neck.
"Huh?" Su Yuyao recalled that silly Bai Er always left the bell on the desk when he wiped himself down... Ugh! How embarrassing! Luckily, the Joyful Bell melted away...
“The Heart-Pounding Bell hasn’t melted,” Xuanfeng said while kissing her, “I’ve locked it in your dantian…”
"What?!" Su Yuyao shoved Xuanfeng away abruptly. "You're going to spy on me too?"
"Huh?! No! I wasn't spying on you!" Xuanfeng hurriedly explained, "I was afraid you silly girl would break my Joyful Heart Bell again! So..."
"So, you just want to spy on me!" Su Yuyao pouted unwillingly.
Xuanfeng looked at Su Yuyao's pouting lips and couldn't help but kiss her.
"Ooh!" Su Yuyao was kissed by Xuanfeng, the kiss growing deeper and deeper, until the two of them were almost lost in the moment...
Lang Zhi couldn't bear to watch any longer. Although he understood the pain of the two young people's longing for each other, he still felt uneasy seeing his precious daughter being forcibly kissed.
"Lord Xuanfeng! Don't you have important business to attend to?!" Langzhi yelled, interrupting the two's passionate kiss.
Xuanfeng stopped helplessly, while Su Yuyao, still wanting more, closed her eyes and reached for Xuanfeng's lips.
Lang Zhi looked at her daughter, who was completely infatuated with Xuan Feng, took a few steps forward, forcibly pulled Su Yuyao behind her, and said with displeasure, "Look at you! Have you forgotten how he treated you?!"
"Father..." Su Yuyao blushed as she recalled the slaps she received and the coercion she endured. The humiliation she felt made her waver again.
He's clearly a terrible person! How could I forgive him so easily...?
Seeing that the girl he had finally managed to appease was being instigated by Langzhi again, Xuanfeng said irritably, "Lord Langzhi! You can't, you can't, you shouldn't interfere in our affairs!"
"What do you mean by 'meddling'?! I'm her father! She's young, and you've completely fooled her! I'm just trying to wake her up!" Lang Zhi rolled his eyes at Xuan Feng, then turned to Su Yuyao and said, "Daughter! How many years have you lived?! He's lived for thousands of years! You think you can outsmart him?! He only said a few words, and look how bewitched you! It's only because I'm here! Otherwise, you would have been fooled again! Think about it carefully, isn't that right?!"
Su Yuyao frowned as she looked at Xuan Feng, her heart still pounding. Even though she kept reminding herself that "he is an enemy," she couldn't resist the surge of her love.
I'm so... pathetic!
Su Yuyao calmed herself down, her hatred resurfacing, and she glared at Xuan Feng with fiery eyes.
Xuanfeng saw the look in Su Yuyao's eyes and knew that all his efforts had been wasted. He quickly said, "Girl, don't let others influence you! Think carefully about what you saw at Flying Eagle's place! Did you see him make a move? Do you have any evidence? Your hatred for me is completely fabricated!"
Su Yuyao recalled the scene she had witnessed. Indeed! She only saw her father's blood gushing out, but she didn't see Fei Ying make a move. However... did it matter whether she saw the move or not in such a scene?
Hmm...very important! That bastard is right! I have no evidence!
But... is it okay for me to deceive myself like this?
"You're not deceiving yourself!" Xuanfeng reached out to pull Su Yuyao, but Langzhi blocked him without any politeness.
Xuanfeng glared at him, his mouth still tumbling out, "Girl! Everything requires evidence!"
"Lord Xuanfeng! You've never cared about evidence?!" Langzhi bluntly exposed him.
"Girl! Are you really willing to believe a meaningless image?!" Xuanfeng said angrily.
"What?! Meaningless?!" Su Yuyao was enraged by Xuanfeng's words. She glared back at him. "What do you mean by meaningless?! The fire that burned down my house was meaningless? Or my dead parents and Green Ivy were meaningless?!"
"I'm sorry... little girl..." Xuanfeng knew he had gone too far and tried to make amends, "I didn't mean the images were meaningless, it's just... you need evidence... right?"
With red eyes, Su Yuyao roared, "I don't need evidence to kill someone! What evidence do you need to prove I hate you?!"
"We're doomed!" Xuanfeng put his hands on his hips and glared at Langzhi. "That damn spider is really good at ruining things!"
This time, Lang Zhi put on a smug look and said, "Sir! Please take care of Yu Qing's matter. I'll take my daughter back first! Her mother is waiting!"
Xuan Feng was so angry his nose almost crooked. Just as he was about to say something more, Su Yuyao tossed her head and resolutely left.
"Girl!" Xuanfeng chased after her, but Langzhi blocked his way again.
"Lord Xuanfeng! Please wait!" Langzhi said disdainfully, raising his head.
Only after Su Yuyao had walked far away did Lang Zhi take a few steps back and turn to leave.
Xuanfeng was so angry that he looked up at the sky and kept trying to catch his breath.
"My lord, what's the next step?" Qi Men strolled leisurely behind Xuan Feng and asked with a smile.
Xuanfeng let out a long sigh of relief and asked in a low voice, "Immortal Master, why didn't you stop the girl just now?"
Qi Men stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Why should I stop you? Yao'er is just bringing forward what you were going to do!"
“Immortal Master,” Xuanfeng turned to Qimen and said earnestly, “I…don’t want the girl’s hands to be stained with blood.”
Qimen looked at Xuanfeng with affection and said, "My lord, when you wanted to kill Yao'er, she unexpectedly survived! When you wanted to get rid of Yao'er, she had already made it hard for you to part with her! When you wanted to raise Yao'er well, she was assassinated and had to go into hiding! When you wanted to protect Yao'er, she suffered some things that made you break the boundaries between men and women! You didn't want Yao'er to get involved, but she changed the situation on her own! Now, Yao'er has made a decision before you!"
Qi Men stared into Xuan Feng's eyes and said, word by word, "My lord! You are the one being led by Yao'er! You can't just do whatever you want!"
Xuanfeng was slightly surprised. "What?! Me?! Being led by this brat... Impossible!" He waved his hand and said, "I am the Heavenly Lord! The Heavenly Lord! How could I be led by a brat... Let's go..."
As Xuanfeng finished speaking, he seemed to lack confidence!
"Hehehehehe..." A strange laugh rang out.
Xuanfeng sensed the mockery in the voice, so he strode towards Yinhao, who was meditating, and used his Qi field to shout, "Lord Yinhao! I knew it! You're just taking advantage of being deaf, mute, and blind to peep here!"
"Hehehehe... So... beautiful..." Yin Hao slowly got up, rubbed against Xuan Feng's side, and gently patted Xuan Feng's shoulder, "You have to... work... harder... hehehehe..."
Xuanfeng's face flushed red and then turned pale. "Take care! Don't bother seeing me off!"
He shook his long robe and roared, "Where is Guan Yue?! He's been locking up his own father for so long?!"
"My lord! I'm back!" Guan Yue heard Xuan Feng's voice sounded off from afar and quickly ran a few steps.
"Find Granny Wen's land deed!" Xuanfeng shouted angrily.
"yes!"
Qi Men stroked his beard, looked at the ashes floating on the ground, and breathed a sigh of relief. "That Su Yuyao! I knew I wasn't wrong!"
Flying Eagle and Bi Rong were pulling and tugging at the palace gate.
"Flying Eagle! You're too naive!!" Bi Rong said, leaning against the doorframe. "Lord Xuanfeng only sent me to take you away because he wanted an excuse to get you out of Miss Yao'er's sight!"
"Lord Xuanfeng ordered me to throw you into the lake!" Flying Eagle grabbed Bi Rong by the collar and said, "He didn't order you to take me away!"
"How could you be so stupid! You actually believed that?! I play with fire! If you throw me into the lake, I'm completely finished!" Bi Rong hugged the door frame even tighter and said, "Lord Xuanfeng was just saying that in anger, not what he really thought! Only you would take his words seriously!"
"Get down here right now!" Flying Eagle kicked Bi Rong's backside. "Get down here now!"
"Ouch! Ouch!" Bi Rong winced in pain. "You stupid eagle! I reckon that when Lord Xuanfeng ordered you to wipe out the Su family, he wasn't really serious! And yet you went and killed... Miss Yao'er?"
"Don't talk nonsense! I didn't kill Miss Yao'er!" Flying Eagle grabbed Bi Rong by the ear. "Get down here right now!"
"Miss Yao'er!" Bi Rong climbed down from the door frame, nudged Fei Ying, and called out respectfully with a wink.
Su Yuyao walked down aggressively, glaring at Fei Ying with a dark expression.
Flying Eagle quickly lowered his head, avoiding Su Yuyao's gaze, afraid that Su Yuyao would discover something else.
Although Su Yuyao had no evidence, she could guess what was going on by looking at Fei Ying's guilty look.
However, she dared not ask any more questions, nor dared she look any further.
What if I actually see something I don't want to see? What if I actually hear him admit it himself?
Su Yuyao was conflicted again. She desperately wanted to know the truth, but she was also afraid of finding out.
What if the truth I don't want to admit is the truth? I still love him so much...
Thinking of this, Su Yuyao's heart softened again. She turned around and looked at Zhu Qing's main hall, and began to miss that kiss again...
"Girl! Why are you still thinking about that brat?!" Langzhi stepped forward, blocking Su Yuyao's view. "Don't let him control you all the time! Look at you! The moment he puts his mouth on your lips, you chase after him to kiss him! Can't you be a little more reserved..."
Su Yuyao frowned and said angrily, "Dad! Can you please stop interfering in our affairs!"
"What?! You won't let me handle this?! That's impossible!" Lang Zhi pointed at Su Yuyao's nose and said, "Daughter! I can do whatever you want with anything else! But not this! He's been in charge of Wuji Dao for so long, how many tricks and schemes does he have up his sleeve?! He could kill you with just a few moves!"
Su Yuyao glared angrily at Lang Zhi, snorted, and turned to walk out of the Vermilion Bird Palace.
Flying Eagle waited until even Langzhi's voice could no longer be heard before he dared to slowly raise his head.
"Pfft!" Bi Rong covered his mouth and laughed when he saw Fei Ying's frightened look. "Fei Ying, you, a dignified assassin, are scared like this by a little girl... Hey? Hey! Let go!"
Before he could finish laughing, Flying Eagle grabbed him by the collar and dragged him toward the lake.
“Daughter! Don’t be disobedient! I’ve been through this before! I can see right through that brat’s lies to you!” Lang Zhi said with certainty.
As Su Yuyao walked briskly, she said angrily, "Experienced person? Aren't you an experienced person?! You've been lying to my mother for a long time! I saw through your tricks at a glance!"
"Hey? I didn't play any tricks! I didn't lie to your mother either," Langzhi said, grabbing Su Yuyao's ponytail, sounding a little guilty. "Don't tell your mother anything! You hear me?!"
Su Yuyao stopped and turned to glare at Lang Zhi, "Then you're not allowed to interfere in my affairs with Xuanfeng! Every time you meddle, you ruin my plans!"
"That brat took advantage of you, and that's a good thing?!" Lang Zhi glared, raising her hand to slap him. "You child... just wait and see..."
"What?!" Su Yuyao, hands on her hips, tilted her face up to meet Lang Zhi's slap and shouted, "Go ahead and hit me?!"
Langzhi clasped his hand to his forehead, then tapped Su Yuyao's nose and said, "I can't bear to hit you! But your mother can! Let's go!"
After saying that, Lang Zhi grabbed Su Yuyao and walked into the courtyard.
Although Su Yuyao was full of Qi power, it was completely ineffective in Lang Zhi's hands. She struggled and shouted, "Ah?! I'm not going!"
