"Tell , have you ntioned this young man to any of my direct subordinates?" the old man asked, his low, asured voice breaking the silence of the cultivation chamber.
"The six Stellar Sovereigns who accompany us? No." Long Aoxue replied after a brief pause, his brow furrowing slightly as he searched his mory.
The Stellar Sovereigns, much like the old man himself, rarely left this place.
Lower-level servants were assigned to the direct protection of the two young n, so they only erged from seclusion when necessary.
Knowing that Long Aoxue had co straight to him without going through any interdiaries drew a relieved smile from the old man.
The chances that those six knew anything about Long Qingyi were minimal, but he was the sort of man who simply didn't like to take risks.
"Good. I'll handle this matter regarding Qingyi personally. For now, just make sure your cultivation remains stable, and don't disappoint the Orthodox Alliance in the tournant." The old man said, giving Aoxue a gentle pat on the shoulder.
Aoxue nodded eagerly, his eyes shining with a mixture of gratitude and anticipation.
A broad smile plastered across his face, the young man left the master's cultivation room.
'Long Qingyi… you bastard… I'm going to seclude myself in cultivation now, so it's a sha I won't get to see your crippled body after the master deals with you… but I'll gladly take Ma Zhenwu's granddaughter as my wife!'
Soon, he stepped into an isolated cultivation room, closing the door behind him with a muffled thud.
In his mind, he was already absolutely certain that the old man would go straight to crippling Qingyi.
Alone in the vast cultivation chamber, the old man rely shook his head in defeat before he projected a sound transmission to the Stellar Sovereigns under his command.
He would be investigating a personal matter, and until further notice, every one of them was to remain isolated in cultivation.
None of the Stellar Sovereigns found this strange. Their master was an eccentric man, notoriously averse to being disturbed.
They themselves, not being much different in temperant, simply obeyed the order without questioning a single word.
With everything in order, the old man took a single step forward, and the air seed to bend around him.
In the blink of an eye, he vanished into nothingness, leaving not even a ripple in space.
***
Shortly after parting ways with Bai Hu Lie, Qingyi made his way back to his room, utterly unaware that his na was already deeply etched in the heart of a cosmic emperor.
His eyes felt heavy, but it wasn't exactly fatigue. He just needed a mont to calm the anger still simring in his heart.
Arriving at the door to his room, he paused for a brief mont, listening to the soft murmur of female voices drifting from the other side.
Then, with a slight smile, he pushed the door open, revealing the cozy interior.
Inside were Bai Yunxi, Xue Hua, and Rou'er, the three of them chatting animatedly about the upcoming wedding, their sweet voices filling the room like a lody.
"Ah… have you reached an agreent?" Qingyi smiled slightly as he caught on to the topic of their conversation.
"Yes!" Rou'er nodded with a radiant smile, while the other two won blushed delicately, averting their gazes.
"We'll get married right after the tournant ends, right here at the Myriad Beasts Sect. Since both Xue Hua's father, my adoptive father and Bai Yunxi's father are already here, it'll be easy for us to organize everything."
Qingyi had no objection to the plan and his eyes were inevitably drawn to Bai Yunxi, sliding slowly over her feline figure.
He approached the beautiful tigress with calm steps.
Yunxi rose to greet him, and his firm, masculine hands imdiately found her delicate waist.
His fingers sank into the elastic, almost inhuman skin, white as freshly fallen snow and crisscrossed by black stripes.
The creamy softness of her flesh gave way beneath his touch, supple yet firm, as he slid his thumbs along the gentle curves just above her hips.
Bai Yunxi shuddered at the contact, a faint shiver rippling down her spine, but she made no move to push him away.
"Are you going to wait for the wedding too?" he asked.
The beauty turned to Rou'er, hesitating for a mont.
Honestly, all she wanted was to throw herself at Qingyi and fuck with him right there. But in the end, her friend had convinced her to wait as well.
After all, wouldn't it be special if the two of them lost their virginity at the sa ti, on the sa night?
Reading Yunxi's answer in her silence, Qingyi didn't push the matter.
He simply caressed the side of her waist one last ti before letting her go.
After a few more minutes of conversation, the girls left Qingyi's room and went together to et their parents.
Xue Hua's father had already accepted her marriage to Qingyi; Rou'er's adoptive father did practically anything his daughter desired; and Bai Yunxi's father was every bit as eager for the wedding as his own daughter.
Knowing all this, the three of them had no concerns whatsoever that their fathers might refuse the proposal.
It would cause a bit of a problem during the grand tournant, but honestly, it was the best possible scenario.
They could finish the competition and then go straight to the wedding, where they would celebrate not only the victory but also the union of those three beauties with the man they loved.
Qingyi had no objection to the idea.
Watching the beauties leave, he simply walked over to his bed and flopped onto the soft sheets, his body sinking slightly into the mattress.
Closing his eyes, he imdiately plunged into Ruxue's mind world.
The world around him shifted in the blink of an eye, and when he ca to, he found himself standing on the sa grassy field as always, before the temple's great gates.
