Chapter 245.4: Teasing Ridicule

Qing Yu’s eyes narrowed as she rubbed her finger over her chin.

[Priest’s Hall….. She wouldn’t run into that man from yesterday would she?]

[That man seemed to have sensed her aura back then. If she was sent to a place where she would be so near to him, she would be discovered sooner or later.]

Thinking of that, Qing Yu turned and was just about to open her mouth to say something when a shimmering contortion in the air caught her attention. A tall well built figure then came walking out from there.

Who else could that be but Lou Jun Yao who came sneaking into the young lady’s sleeping quarters every night?

The moment the man appeared, he walked over to the bed of soft clouds straightaway, and encircled his arms around the young lady leaning back comfortably. His voice was magnetically low as he asked: “Where did you go?”

“Hm?” Qing Yu raised an eyebrow to look at him. “How did you know that I went out today?”

[Did he come here earlier?]

Lou Jun Yao laughed softly and his long slender finger reached out slowly past her cheek. As she stared at him in surprise, he gently rubbed at the skin on a spot covered by her long black hair. When he retracted his hand, Qing Yu’s sharp eyes saw that the man’s fair skinned finger was stained with something dark and black.

That was left on his finger when his finger rubbed the skin behind her cheek.

Qing Yu’s eyes widened.

[That is…..]

[Could she rubbed against something in that broken and dilapidated palace and it stuck on her skin?]

“Once this material is rubbed onto one’s skin, it is very difficult to wash off, and it also carries a special scent.” Lou Jun Yao said, as he brought his stained fingertip close to Qing Yu’s nose, and he waved his finger lightly.

She could smell a mild woody scent. Although it was very faint, but Elixir Cultivators were born with an exceptional sense of smell, where the slightest scent would not be able to escape their noses.

Thinking about that, a chill ran through Qing Yu. Fortunately for her, that fella Yue Fan was not an Elixir Cultivator. Otherwise, she would have been immediately exposed!

As Qing Yu was unable to see her own face, she raised her head up to look at Lou Jun Yao and asked: “Do I have a lot of it on my face?”

“Just a bit.” Lou Jun Yao replied.

He cast a tiny minor clear water spell and the bit of stain on the side of the young lady’s face immediately disappeared completely, without a single trace of it left.

“It’s done.” Lou Jun Yao said as he embraced the soft figure in his arms, his hand toying with the young lady’s raven locks. “Can you tell me now where you went off to today?”

“Mm. I discovered a very important person today, a woman who was once my mother’s serving attendant.”

As Qing Yu spoke, her eyes turned to look at a particular spot. She then called out in a gentle voice, “Chi Yue, you can come out now.”

Because she was worried that it would be very dangerous for the woman to remain there by herself, Qing Yu decided to bring the woman back here with her. As she was already a frail and weakened translucent spirit soul, it was very easy for Qing Yu to conceal her.

Upon hearing Qing Yu’s call, Chi Yue’s figure slowly materialized. At the moment the woman saw Lou Jun Yao, her entire body stiffened, and immense shock came to show on her face.

[That pair of familiar looking violet eyes, were possessed by only one person throughout the entire Cloud Heaven.]

[It was that young child who was frequently seen together with the Princess, and his real ident.i.ty was…..]

“Greeting to the Dark Overlord!”
