Shen Yunhao suddenly took two steps back, distancing himself from Bai Xiaoruo. Before leaving, he didn't forget to give her pert buttocks a light pat to express his dissatisfaction.
Seeing that this lecherous man had been frightened into retreat by her words, Bai Xiaoruo raised her chin triumphantly.
Her gaze swept over Li Ye, who was still standing not far away, and suddenly an idea came to her. She turned to Shen Yunhao, who had just stepped back, and whispered:
"Hey, let me tell you, the true form of the Spirit Breaker Clan is the Netherworld Sable. You've probably seen something like a ferret before, right? Their tails are truly top-notch! They're huge and fluffy, with smooth and soft fur, even better to the touch than our fox clan's..."
"..."
Shen Yunhao's lips twitched, vaguely guessing the vixen's wicked thoughts, and he asked warily, "So... what are you trying to say?"
Bai Xiaoru blinked her big eyes, but her smile became even more "weird": "I've known that pretentious guy for a long time. How about I go and put in a good word for you, and ask him to indulge your... well... rather unique and wicked fetish for the sake of me?"
"Get the hell out of here!"
Shen Yunhao was disgusted by the suggestion. He glared at Bai Xiaoruo, turned around, and returned to the servants' quarters in the corner without looking back, deciding to stay away from this stinky fox for the time being.
The little fox watched his retreating figure and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, overjoyed, her gloom completely vanished.
Finally, we can get rid of this guy's stinky habit of tailgating!
At this moment, Li Ye finally finished greeting the group of demon queens and walked over to Bai Xiaoruo and Tang Xi with a leisurely gait.
He stood in front of the table and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards the two of them.
"Sister Bai, Xixi, it's been so long! I'm amazed to see you both today. Time flies, and you two are still as beautiful as ever, even more so than before. It makes me feel quite moved, and I dare not be presumptuous..."
"You fucking bastard!"
Bai Xiaoruo interrupted the spellcasting abruptly, angrily saying, "Stop spouting nonsense! Speak up! Why are you late? You've made so many of us wait for you!"
With one hand behind his back, Li Ye smiled slightly and said in a calm tone, "On the way here, I encountered some minor troubles that delayed me for a while. I hope you two will forgive me."
"Trouble?" Bai Xiaoruo frowned. "You can run into trouble in the City of Ten Thousand Demons? Who would dare to cause you trouble? What happened?"
The man simply shook his head. "It's nothing, just a minor incident, it's been resolved."
At this moment, Lei Yucheng also came over with a smile, "Alright, alright, everyone's finally here! Boss Bai, I'll have the servants arrange the banquet right away, please go upstairs and take a seat!"
Bai Xiaoruo glanced at the lofty main seat following his finger, and decisively shook her head: "No! I'll sit with Xixi, it's fine here!"
"Ah, this..."
Lei Yucheng was immediately stumped and scratched the white hair.
If even Bai Xiaoruo doesn't sit in this main seat, who else here would dare to sit there, or who else is worthy of sitting there?
Seeing his predicament, Bai Xiaoru waved her hand dismissively and said, "Didn't you invite this dinner? Go up and sit down! We're demons, we don't have as many fancy rules as humans. When we go out to eat, we just want to have a good time, get together, drink, and chat!"
Li Ye gracefully sat down in the empty seat next to Bai Xiaoruo and said calmly, "Yucheng, what Sister Bai said makes sense. Since you're the host, you should go up and sit down. Besides, you went to so much trouble to call us over, so you must have something to say. There's no need to be so polite."
Lei Yucheng nodded upon hearing this, thinking to himself, "That makes sense, then I'll just shamelessly sit down!"
Just then, Li Ye suddenly felt a gaze fixed on him from the crowd.
He instinctively turned around, following his instincts, and saw a man dressed like him in the servants' quarters, looking at him with a... indescribable strange gaze.
Seeing him turn around, the man smiled slightly and greeted him.
For some reason, Li Ye felt that the other person's seemingly friendly smile... carried a hint of something strange.
Moreover... his gaze seemed to be subtly staring at his buttocks.
This sudden thought sent a chill down his spine. He quickly composed himself, straightened his posture, and stopped looking back.
Not far away, Shen Yunhao scratched his head when he saw Li Ye's reaction.
He had just suddenly recalled seeing certain male characters with tails in some anime series from the 21st century, so he subconsciously glanced at the other person a couple more times.
Judging from the other party's reaction, it seems like they misunderstood something.
However, Shen Yunhao didn't pay much attention to this little incident. As soon as he looked away, the bear clan servant behind him approached with a shocked expression, his huge body even showing a hint of caution.
"Bro... buddy... what... what are you..."
Shen Yunhao looked completely innocent: "Me? What happened to me?"
The burly man hesitated for a moment, then covered his mouth with his hand and whispered mysteriously, "I...I just...I think I saw you...you took a picture of His Highness Bai's...that..."
He hesitated for a long time before finally uttering the last two words.
"..."
Shen Yunhao was surprised that this simpleton had such sharp eyes, and his old face flushed slightly. However, he reacted quickly, immediately raising his brows and gesturing for the bear-like giant to be quiet. He said in a deep voice, "Brother, be careful what you say! You mustn't say such things carelessly! Saying them... could bring you trouble!"
The man was quite tall and his cultivation was not weak, but he was somewhat simple-minded and clumsy. He was directly frightened by Shen Yunhao's pretentious attitude and quickly covered his mouth with his hand, nodding his large head like a chicken pecking at rice, afraid that he might accidentally let something slip and bring about his death.
Then Shen Yunhao pretended to lean closer to him and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "This was originally a top secret, and I didn't plan to tell anyone. But since you've discovered the clues, I can only tell you a little bit. You must keep this a secret and absolutely cannot tell a second person!"
“Actually…” Shen Yunhao paused deliberately, narrowed his eyes and slowly said, “Actually, I am Xiaoruo’s cousin from afar, whom she was separated from for many years and only recently reunited with!”
Achoo!!!
The bear clan servant stared wide-eyed, not yet able to process this "earth-shattering secret," when Bai Xiaoruo on the other side suddenly sneezed loudly without warning.
She rubbed her small nose, as if she had a premonition, and suddenly turned around, her sharp gaze instantly locking onto Shen Yunhao, who was whispering and arm in arm with a bear clan servant.
Bai Xiaoruo: "(?_?)"
Upon noticing the "death stare," Shen Yunhao instantly switched to an innocent smile, as if nothing had happened.
