Douluo Continent: Chrysanthemum and Demon Twins, Forced Marriage to Meng Hongchen
Chapter 17 A Beauty in My Arms, A Life of Immortality
puff!
Ghost Fox, a once renowned level-nine Soul Master of the Control System and a level-ninety-three Title Douluo, died such a humiliating death.
Moreover, even in death, he could not find peace; Xia Yu forcibly extracted the only two soul bones he possessed.
"As expected of a renowned senior, he certainly has some skill."
Xia Yu cleaned the bloodstains off the soul bone, then removed the storage soul tool from the ghost fox's arm before throwing his corpse into the ruins like trash.
After doing all this, Xia Yu didn't linger and left without looking back.
As for why he didn't destroy the body and erase all traces...
Firstly, there's no need for that; Xia Yu didn't intend to hide anything anyway.
Secondly, the presence of the ghost fox's dilapidated corpse and the hellish scene of the ruins serves as a warning to certain shady characters.
Trying to get your hands on him will come at a price.
If you can't handle it, you'd better think carefully before you do, otherwise don't bother him.
"Hmm, martial law has been declared. They reacted pretty quickly!"
On the way back to the mansion, Xia Yu keenly sensed that the atmosphere in the entire Mingdu had become tense.
Guard teams and patrolling Soul Master squads can be seen on the streets from time to time.
Needless to say, all of this was caused by that sudden attack.
They even used level nine fixed-position soul-guided shells, and although the explosion occurred on a remote street, it did not cause many casualties.
However, when it comes to a weapon of mass destruction like a level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell, the matter is anything but trivial.
Perhaps, at this very moment, all the forces in Mingdu have been alerted and are secretly gathering intelligence.
It is foreseeable that the capital of Ming will be bustling with activity in the coming days.
This kind of excitement is undoubtedly a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters. It is unknown which forces and people will suffer losses and decline in this incident.
Or perhaps some other forces will seize this golden opportunity and rise to prominence.
In short, life is unpredictable; people rise and fall, and the cycle never ends.
"Phew, all done. I'll leave the rest to the teacher."
After returning to his residence, Xia Yu briefly summarized the ins and outs of the matter, wrote it into a letter, and had it delivered to his teacher, Kong Deming.
Having a teacher with connections and influence is wonderful; they can provide shelter from the wind and rain without any problem.
Just like today's attack, although Xia Yu was the victim, it involved a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell, so some questioning was definitely inevitable.
However, with teacher Kong Deming backing them up, the situation changed.
Although they will still receive some attention, there will definitely be no more inquiries or interrogations.
Of course, Xia Yu's telling his teacher Kong Deming about this was certainly not just to avoid an inquiry that never came.
He also had his own ulterior motives, such as using his teacher Kong Deming's connections to investigate the so-called mastermind.
In short, Kong Deming had cultivated a vast and intricate network of connections throughout the Sun Moon Empire over the years.
Xia Yu refused to believe that with the help of his teacher Kong Deming, the person behind that shit could still hide.
"Forget it, let's go to sleep and recharge. After all, there's a big battle waiting for us tonight."
After finishing her studies, Xia Yu went to catch up on sleep.
Since I've already said I'm going to teach Meng Hongchen a lesson tonight, I can't be careless. I have to be in top form.
Time flew by, and before we knew it, evening had arrived.
Having adjusted himself to his best state, Xia Yu sat confidently on the sofa in the hall, waiting for Meng Hongchen to come and walk into his trap.
However, things didn't go as planned. He waited and waited, but Meng Hongchen never returned.
"Could it be that this little girl knows she's gotten into trouble and will be in trouble tonight, so she's not coming back?"
When Meng Hongchen still hadn't returned by midnight, Xia Yu couldn't help but have a thought: Meng Hongchen was avoiding him.
Xia Yu was quite helpless about this. He was all ready, but the opponent he was supposed to teach a lesson was simply absent. What was going on?
"How about we go and bring Meng Hongchen back?"
Just as Xia Yu was pondering whether or not to bring Meng Hongchen back, a series of crisp footsteps sounded outside the hall.
Then, Meng Hongchen appeared in Xia Yu's sight, looking exhausted.
Although she was exhausted from team training and looked a bit listless, she still had beautiful features and a refined temperament, possessing a beauty that made it hard to look away.
"Brother Yu, why aren't you asleep yet? Are you waiting for me?"
Meng Hongchen spoke weakly, then took three steps in two and sat down next to Xia Yu, leaning against him.
"What's wrong? Are you very tired?"
Xia Yu was also a little confused at this moment, not understanding why it was just the team's daily training, but it had made Meng Hongchen look so exhausted that she was about to collapse.
"Would you like me to help you relax?"
Xia Yu reached out and gently pulled Meng Hongchen into his arms.
"Yes, Brother Yu, you have no idea how tired and sleepy I am right now. It's all Xiao Hongchen's fault..."
Upon hearing this, Meng Hongchen immediately agreed and then began to complain to Xia Yu.
Actually, the trigger for this incident was related to Xia Yu.
Whether it was because he was stimulated by Xia Yu's self-fusion martial soul technique or not, Xiao Hongchen trained like he was on steroids in the afternoon, directly adopting the mode of training until he died.
This put Meng Hongchen, his partner, in a difficult position, and she was forced to intensify her training.
The intense training, which lasted all afternoon and into the middle of the night, completely drained Meng Hongchen's physical and mental strength.
She's so tired now that she doesn't want to move a single finger.
"Ha~, Yu-ge, carry me to take a shower, I feel all sticky and smelly, it's so uncomfortable."
After nestled in Xia Yu's arms for a long time, Meng Hongchen yawned softly, feeling sleepy.
She wanted to sleep, but unfortunately, she hadn't taken a shower and felt uncomfortable, so she couldn't fall asleep.
In addition, she didn't want to move.
So she felt perfectly justified in bothering her husband, Xia Yu.
"Okay, I'll go and help you turn on the water right away," Xia Yu replied softly to Meng Hongchen's request.
"Thank you, Brother Yu, I love you~" Meng Hongchen pouted her cherry lips and kissed Xia Yu on the cheek.
Perhaps she was truly exhausted, because Meng Hongchen didn't move an inch throughout the rest of the process, leaving all the steps to Xia Yu to control.
Even when Xia Yu put her on the bed after she had just taken a shower and was about to put a nightgown on her, guess what? She fell asleep instantly the moment he turned his head.
"Wow, that's an amazing speed at falling asleep."
Looking at Meng Hongchen, who was snoring softly, Xia Yu didn't know what to say.
Left with no other choice, he carefully helped her put on her nightgown, afraid of waking her up.
"Sigh, I was going to teach you a lesson, but seeing how you are, I'll let you off the hook tonight."
Lying in bed, looking at Meng Hongchen's peaceful sleeping face, Xia Yu had no choice but to abandon his plans for tonight.
"Mmm, hug me~"
Whether it was sensing Xia Yu's presence or something else, Meng Hongchen seemed to have an auto-navigation function installed, and in a flash, she snuggled into Xia Yu's arms.
"Little goblin!"
Looking at his sweet and soft wife in his arms, and inhaling her unique fragrance, Xia Yu's dissatisfaction vanished in an instant.
With a beautiful woman in his arms, this blissful life was truly wonderful, and he enjoyed it very much.
