555 Monthly Offering
He glanced briefly at the two people blocking his path, a hint of recollection in his eyes. Then he shook his head slightly and sighed softly, as if he truly couldn't remember who they were.
A sweet, gentle voice drifted from inside the car, tinged with anticipation and a hint of doubt, "Old Chi, have we arrived at our lodgings?"
As she spoke, she peeked out, her beauty beyond compare, her skin fair and delicate, her eyes like deep lake water, bright and spirited, with a hint of joy, the joy of being able to come down and rest.
Old Chi's usually calm face softened with a knowing smile as he chuckled softly, "Not yet. Someone's blocking the way. I wonder if they've stopped the wrong person."
Meng Queyi and Yuechan slowly lifted the carriage curtain. The four people blocking their path caused them to furrow their brows slightly. Like roses in the morning dew, their beauty was enhanced, adding to their unique charm. They possessed a distinctive allure, and the four people opposite them were utterly captivated by their stunning beauty.
Meng Queyi was slightly taken aback, but instantly understood. Her eyes were calm and cold, and she had somehow already grasped the Godless Crossbow in her hand. A murderous intent and a strange sense of disgust welled up in her heart.
Yuechan's eyes were cold and clear, seemingly serene and distant. A faint, cold smile played on her lips. Her eyes were clear and unfathomable.
Her cool gaze seemed to conceal endless secrets.
There was also a sense of composure and calmness, and a strange feeling of breaking free from a cage. A breath of freedom came from the wind, carrying a hint of determination and expectation.
The four men blocking the road had clearly taken a shortcut on horseback and were still seated on their horses.
The character for "moon" is embroidered on the chest, but each one is different.
The two men in front greeted people with humble yet insincere smiles, like servants or stewards.
The two familiar faces behind him looked somewhat embarrassed and uncomfortable; they were none other than the former Demon Slayer King Sha Wu and King Ming Wu.
The same people, in different places and positions. The two people of the past are no longer resolute and decisive. They smell of perfume and have a hint of smugness and vigor.
The Yue family is indeed very generous, with money, beautiful women—all kinds of beauties, a large mansion, a five-courtyard mansion, and fifty servants. It truly is a life like that of emperors.
The basic daily expenses are one hundred taels of silver, not including other expenses.
The promised advanced cultivation manuals and elixirs are temporarily out of stock. However, they are being retrieved as quickly as possible.
Currently, only two bottles of the best Peiyuan Pills have been given away, which will be used to train my own family disciples. As for the sixth-tier Huangji Pill, the seventh-tier Tianwang Buxin Pill, and the eighth-tier Shengsheng Zaizao Pill, we will have to wait.
They need to wait until they have enough contribution points before they can exchange for it from the internal treasury. There's always stock, and there will be no delays. It's just that the exchange requires a larger amount of contribution points.
The two enjoyed a period of carefree life, and as guests of the Yue family, they were treated with utmost courtesy. Their lives were incredibly comfortable, and they realized that this was truly the best thing in the world.
As for the life of fighting and killing, the kind of life we used to lead was something we don't even know what to call it.
Last night, the two were asleep, with the beauty beside them, her body soft and supple.
The head of the Yue family sent word that Yue Chan, the Yue family's betrothed and one of the ten beauties of the royal city, had disappeared.
It was also the Yue family's fault for being careless. They didn't expect Yuechan to leave on her own. They thought Yuechan should be overjoyed and happy. It wasn't impossible for her to become the Crown Princess or even the future Imperial Concubine.
Why wouldn't Yuechan be willing to accept such a wonderful opportunity? Moreover, Yuechan's talent is so outstanding that it has already threatened the male members of the Yue family. If she continues to stay in the Yue family in the future...
Or perhaps they could form a marriage alliance with another powerful family. As for the Yue family, it's hard to predict whether Yuechan's son will try to seize the position of family head.
If the direct descendants of the Yue family were to die out, and all the collateral branches were to have a chance, it would be hard to predict who would rule the Yue family.
Marrying into an imperial family means that the family will become the support for their children, who will only fawn over and rely on each other, rather than fight over anything.
After all, you can't just give up a perfectly good world to seize a big mansion, can you?
The Yue family acted swiftly, quickly discovering Yuechan and the others' nighttime outing. The family head was furious and his authority was damaged; such disobedience truly indicated ulterior motives.
To reap the blessings of the family, one must naturally make sacrifices for the family; otherwise, if everyone is so selfish, how can the Yue family be strong and develop?
However, she is only fourth on the list of beauties in the royal city, a member of a collateral branch of the Yue family, and has outstanding talent. She has not yet become a Martial King, yet she dares to violate the family rules so blatantly. She should be captured and brought back immediately.
Otherwise, if a bad example is set, wouldn't the family fall into chaos?
However, it is still necessary to reason with her and appeal to her emotions, so that the future Crown Princess will not develop too many misunderstandings.
If they still can't understand, then we need to bring them back first. If that doesn't work, we can try another Yuechan. As long as it's Yuechan and she's in the Yue family, it doesn't really matter who she is.
Both sides are only seeking a plausible excuse.
A sliver of afterglow pierced through the dark clouds and fell upon Yuechan's face, adding a touch of mystery to her otherwise indifferent and aloof countenance.
Yuechan let out a soft, cold laugh, her voice echoing like an ancient wind chime in the silent night.
Her sneer revealed endless mockery and contempt, as if the four people in her eyes were all so ridiculous and insignificant.
It was as if she were a proud goddess looking down on everything in the world, so beautiful and stunning, like a proud swan looking at the low and ugly domestic fowl around her.
A calm, icy voice said, "Butler Gong, it's such a great trouble for you to come out like this. I'm truly sorry. With Butler Gong blocking the road like this, one might think someone's trying to rob us."
Butler Gong, who had been smiling as if victory was assured, now had a stiff smile, and a hint of annoyance and shame flashed in his eyes.
My hands, which were slightly agitated, now felt a sense of humiliation; I hadn't been humiliated like this in a long time.
She was just a daughter of a collateral branch of the family, and although she was exceptionally beautiful, she couldn't help but lower her head when she thought of becoming the future Crown Princess or even an Imperial Concubine.
His smiling face was slightly flushed, as if trying to hide his inner embarrassment, while his eyes revealed an unspeakable shame and servile emotion.
Butler Gong tried hard to maintain his usual smile, but shame seeped into every expression and movement silently, like fine sand.
Behind him, the former Demon Slayer of Sand and Demon Slayer of Brightness were now the Sand Worshipper and the Bright Worshipper. The difference in their status made him feel a blush and a sense of shame.
It wasn't a matter of high status before, and it seems even less so now.
At that moment, for no apparent reason, I felt as if all my dignity and glory had been stripped away, leaving only naked embarrassment and shame.
