Thinking that he was staying in a more luxurious place than Lang Shuai, he felt quite pleased and decided to go for a swim in the indoor pool to enjoy the unique treatment that was different from Lang Shuai's.
But then he remembered Qinghe, who was tightly bound with cloth strips and lying on the bed in the secretary's room. He couldn't help but stop and sigh. There were so many things to do, he still couldn't rest.
He went to the magic circle in the passageway, pulled out the room card, made the toothless mouth open again, shut down the magic circle in the room, and then put a "good person" on himself before returning to the secretary's room.
Wang Yao closed the door, glanced at Qinghe on the bed, then climbed onto the bed and sat down beside her, untying the bonds binding her head one by one. He had to resolve the matter of this little fox demon; keeping her tied up here wasn't a solution.
As the strips of cloth fell down, the first thing to be revealed was Qinghe's pair of large, watery eyes. She blinked hard, looked at Wang Yao, and then looked around the room, her eyes showing a mixture of fear and confusion.
"I'll take the sock out of your mouth first, but you mustn't make any noise, okay?" Wang Yao first untied the cloth strip from Qinghe's mouth, then reminded her before pulling the smelly sock out of her mouth.
Qinghe was obedient and didn't make a sound, but the moment the sock left her mouth, she jerked her head up and bit down hard on Wang Yao's hand.
With a "crack," Qinghe's upper and lower teeth clashed together crisply, with such force that Wang Yao was afraid she would bite them to pieces.
"Hey! You really are a fox, aren't you starving? If you're starving, just say so. I'll untie you in a bit and give you something to eat. Why are you biting around like that? You look like you have rabies." Wang Yao teased with a laugh.
Qinghe glared fiercely at Wang Yao and tried to struggle a few times, but the bonds of the Yi Clan warriors were so strong that she couldn't even move her position on the bed. Then she closed her eyes and screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Ah..." The sound was meaningless, just a sharp, piercing scream.
"Hmm, the voice sounds strong and clear, not like someone who's hungry. It's really high-pitched and has a lingering resonance. What song is this? Why are there no lyrics? It would be much better if there were lyrics. My musical knowledge isn't good enough, so I don't really understand songs without lyrics..." Wang Yao smacked his lips and commented.
Qinghe called out for a long time, but apart from Wang Yao's incessant chatter, it didn't elicit any response. She took a breath and called out a few more times, but finally stopped.
"Tired of shouting? If you're tired, take a break and let's talk." Wang Yao chuckled.
Qinghe kept her eyes closed, not even glancing at Wang Yao.
"Qinghe, is it? A powerful figure from the Liang Clan. I don't care what you were planning by secretly following the Yi Clan's team, but now that you're in my hands, you only have two paths to take. Listen carefully, or I won't be able to save you anymore."
Wang Yao ignored whether she was listening or not and continued talking.
“I didn’t cover your ears, so you must have heard it too. Your Liang clan’s attack on the Yi clan must have been instigated by the Hu clan’s envoy and that spirit. Of course, as a sacred clan, annexing other clans and expanding your territory is something your Liang clan originally wanted.”
"It's just that we weren't confident before, but this time the Hu tribe probably gave you a guarantee. It's just that the Yi tribe's strength has been greatly reduced, and as long as your Liang tribe unites with the Shu tribe, you will have plenty of opportunities, and so on."
"But have you ever considered that even a starved camel can outrun a horse? If your Liang tribe really manages to join forces with the Shu tribe to wipe out the Yi tribe, won't the Liang tribe suffer any losses? Did the Hu tribe instigate you to start a war because they are overflowing with love for your Liang tribe and are completely thinking of your Liang tribe?"
“You will surely say that the Hu tribe is far away from our Dongchuan continent, and even if they have any ill intentions towards the Liang tribe, it will take more than a day or two for them to attack.”
“By then, your Liang tribe will have recovered and developed its strength in its new territory, and you won’t be able to let that monkey tribe control you anymore. See, you’ve opened your eyes, haven’t you? I was right, wasn’t I?” Wang Yao laughed.
As Qinghe listened to Wang Yao's rambling, she unconsciously opened her beautiful eyes again and stared blankly at him. It seemed that Wang Yao's words had piqued her interest, but once he started talking, Qinghe immediately glared at him and closed her eyes again.
Wang Yao chuckled, not minding at all, and continued talking to himself.
"But have you ever considered that since the Hu tribe can incite you to attack the Yi tribe, why can't you incite other tribes to attack your Liang tribe? Your Liang tribe isn't a top tribe on the Dongchuan Continent. After the great war, wouldn't other tribes also have an opportunity?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Qinghe and saw her lying there with a tense face, showing no movement or expression. Wang Yao was not discouraged and continued speaking according to his own train of thought.
"I am the Matchmaker of the Heavenly Court's office in the human realm. I came to the Holy Realm this time because the human realm and the underworld have suffered a great calamity of rigor mortis and corpse qi, resulting in heavy losses. I was assigned by the Heavenly Court to join the Heavenly Court's calamity investigation team to capture the culprit of the calamity."
"To be honest, that transparent spirit is one of the culprits. Since that spirit is in league with the monkeys, you should now understand the relationship between the monkeys and the Heavenly Court, right? So, whoever helps the culprit of the great calamity is an enemy of the Heavenly Court, and killing him would be too lenient!"
"If you remain obstinate and continue to oppose me, I might have no choice but to kill you. However, with your timid and cowardly appearance, I might not be able to bring myself to do it. So, I'll have to use my matchmaking skills to find you a husband. How about that mud-headed Pang Zhen?"
