But Mu Shuangshuang didn't know he did, and she was already speechless from being teased.
Of course, she wouldn't speak in front of Shen Yunhao.
Seeing Mu Shuangshuang cowering like a little ball, Shen Yunhao felt a surge of joy.
I thought this little witch could be really that powerful, always wearing a super short skirt and flirting with people.
Looking at it now, it's just a silver spear with a candle stub, nice to look at but useless.
Shen Yunhao raised his hand and touched her retracted silver tail hook, but the little scorpion reacted as if in a normal stress response, raising her tail and slapping him!
"hiss……"
Shen Yunhao gasped. He had to admit, that little tail really hurt.
After Mu Shuangshuang finished tying her tail, she realized that she was a little tense and quickly pulled it out.
Looking at Shen Yunhao's stung hand, the little scorpion paced back and forth, seemingly at a loss.
Shen Yunhao shook his head: "You, always stinging people... Forget it, I won't look at her, okay? Next one, next one!"
He then pushed the little scorpion aside and turned to the next page.
For some reason, Mu Shuangshuang felt a sense of loss after Shen Yunhao stopped watching.
After thinking for a moment, she climbed over to Shen Yunhao's side and rubbed affectionately against his palm, as if she had returned to the state she had been in half a month ago, when she started to act cute and charming in order to get Shen Yunhao to help treat her injuries.
Shen Yunhao chuckled inwardly, gently hooking the bright silver scorpion tail with his finger, and said with a light laugh, "What? Not going to sting anymore?"
Mu Shuangshuang took the opportunity to climb onto Shen Yunhao's palm, shrinking her body and continuing to rub against him, while her long tail nimbly wrapped around Shen Yunhao's fingertips, her ingratiating intentions were self-evident.
"Fine, fine, I forgive you!"
Shen Yunhao blinked and suddenly said, "Strange, why has your tail turned red?"
"..."
Mu Shuangshuang froze, then continued to rub against Shen Yunhao's palm, pretending not to have heard what Shen Yunhao said.
That injection just now... caused uncontrollable detoxification.
However, her current spiritual cultivation level is far lower than her physical strength, making it impossible for her to withstand the side effects of the Illusion Tail Needle with willpower alone.
And so... to Shen Yunhao's astonished gaze, the little scorpion rubbed against his palm.
Finally, its body went limp, and it lay motionless on Shen Yunhao's hand.
It's fortunate that Mu Shuangshuang isn't in human form right now, otherwise she'd probably want to die...
...
In mid-April, as the sun shone, the weather began to gradually warm up.
Yunzhou is located north of Tianji Continent, and Tianshan is located at the northernmost part of Yunzhou. Therefore, the higher peaks are covered in ice and snow almost all year round.
Inside a frosty cave atop a mountain, Ning Yuyao suddenly opened her eyes.
"Clang!"
The next moment, a thick layer of frost instantly formed on the entire cave floor, centered on where she was sitting.
Only a jet-black longsword placed in front of her was trembling and buzzing.
"snort!"
The girl snorted coldly, and gently raised her slender hand to grasp the hilt of the sword.
"Buzz—"
The buzzing sound intensified, and the longsword almost slipped out of Ning Yuyao's control and flew away!
Ning Yuyao's expression remained unchanged, and a layer of fine frost emanated from her palms, eventually covering the entire longsword.
"town!"
With a low shout from the girl, all the frost shattered, and the longsword fell completely still.
Ning Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief, waved her hand to put away the Ghostly Cold Sword, took out the Cloud Frost and carried it behind her back, and then opened the door to the Cold Cave.
At the mountaintop, surrounded by wind and snow, Ning Yuyao looked around and then made a hand seal, causing the Cloud Frost Sword to grow larger and fly out.
The sword tip was pointing directly at the southern mountains...
"Cough cough..."
Just as Ning Yuyao was about to jump onto the sword, two dry coughs came from the side.
"..."
Ning Yuyao froze, turned to look at her senior sister Ying Tangtang who was walking over, and couldn't help but pout: "Senior sister, what brings you here..."
"If I don't come to watch over you, won't you just run off down the mountain again...?"
Ying Tangtang sighed and said, "After coming out of seclusion, you didn't go to pay your respects to your master, and you only thought about your little man... You, what can I say about you..."
Ning Yuyao blushed and pursed her lips, saying, "I haven't seen my husband since I brought him to Tianshan, so naturally I had to go and inform him first! Don't worry, Senior Sister, I'm just going to say hello to Brother Yunhao and then I'll go back to the mountain to see Master. It'll be quick!"
"hehe……"
Ying Tangtang secretly rolled her eyes: "Then let me ask you, what if that kid hasn't seen you for so long, and the first thing he does when he sees you is want to get intimate with you?"
"..."
Ning Yuyao opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.
"Never mind! Go ahead!"
Unexpectedly, Ying Tangtang waved her hand and said, "Master is currently entertaining guests, so he shouldn't notice that you've come out of seclusion... Hurry back..."
He then stroked his chin and hesitated, saying, "Well... it should be fine if it takes an hour or two longer, just remember to get back to the mountain before nightfall and don't stay there overnight!"
"I...I understand..."
The little girl felt ashamed after being told that, so she jumped up and leaped onto the flying sword.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly asked, "By the way, Senior Sister, where did this guest come from? Would it be convenient for me to see Master later?"
"It's nothing. They seem to be guests from Beihai. I heard... something about a great beauty from Beihai, or a princess, the daughter of an old friend of Master's. They just came to catch up..."
Ning Yuyao had just flown into the air on her sword when she heard these words and suddenly turned back.
"Junior Sister...?"
Ying Tangtang was slightly taken aback.
"Let's go, Senior Sister..." Ning Yuyao's expression suddenly turned extremely cold, like ice and snow in winter: "Let's go and meet... this guest from Beihai!"
"???"
...
Qingyoufeng Guest Hall.
Zhu Li sat somewhat timidly in the guest seat, sipping her tea and looking around.
At a certain moment, a beautiful woman in palace attire walked into the main hall, waving her sleeves. Only then did Zhu Li hurriedly stand up, clasp her hands in greeting, and say, "Greetings, Palace Master Nie!"
"It's been a long time, you've indeed grown into a more and more charming young woman..."
Strangely, when facing Zhu Li, this cold-faced palace master changed his usual demeanor and showed a rare, amiable smile.
"How is your mother doing lately? I heard that things in Beihai haven't calmed down yet..."
"Thank you for your concern, Palace Master Nie. My mother is doing well..."
Zhu Li lowered her eyebrows slightly.
Having placed her heart on Shen Yunhao's side has indeed put a lot of pressure on Mei Yu'er.
But... who can blame him when he's my bratty younger brother?
"I don't miss that guy at all!"
Nie Qingshuang sneered: "She got so bored that she married someone, only to end up with a lot of trouble."
Zhu Li had long heard about the relationship between Mei Yu'er and Nie Qingshuang. The two used to be close friends, but Nie Qingshuang took the initiative to cut off all contact with her after her mother married into the Beihai Dragon Clan.
