Xiao Ye could clearly feel it.
Huangfu Xiangling had a lot more smiles on her face, and she had been genuinely happy almost the entire ti during the al.
The broken family reunion was like a shattered mirror coming together again, letting Huangfu Xiangling have motherly love once more.
The way Huangfu Xiangling looked at him, it almost seed sticky with longing.
*Inside, her love and focus on him grew stronger still.*
If his clothes got dirty, she would personally take them off, hand-wash them, and hang them out to dry.
If he had a grain of rice at the corner of his mouth, the Ancestral Empress didn’t care at all, but Huangfu Xiangling would imdiately take the rice and pop it into her own mouth and eat it.
After they drank, Huangfu Xiangling was the first to prepare hangover soup for everyone.
Even though it didn’t taste great, she made it from the heart.
After the al, Xiao Ye chatted a bit with Huangfu Xiangling’s mom and stepmom, but then got dragged into the Space-Ti Hall villa’s bedroom by Huangfu Xiangling.
She threw herself onto him, intoxicated by his unique masculine scent, and said infatuatedly,
"Xiao Ye, you’ve treated so well, I don’t even know how to repay you."
"How do you want to repay you?"
Xiao Ye affectionately tapped her little nose, smiling,
"You don’t need to repay ."
Huangfu Xiangling shook her head, "No, I have to repay you, otherwise I’ll feel like I owe you inside."
Xiao Ye said helplessly, "If you’re really going to insist on it, then just work hard on your cultivation."
"Our Blue Star will be facing a great crisis, the Sovereign Realm isn’t really enough anymore."
"It’s not just you, all the beast girls need to work hard on cultivation."
Huangfu Xiangling nodded hard, "I’ll work hard on my cultivation!"
"But before that, I want to reward you."
She slipped off her clothes, revealing a delicate, pale, flawless body, then slowly helped Xiao Ye undress him.
Next, she pounced right onto Xiao Ye on the soft couch, murmuring infatuatedly,
"I want you!"
...
Elsewhere, the Ti Empress brought out her long-cherished Dragon Shrinking Wine, an ancient brew that had aged for a hundred thousand years, two bottles in total.
She put them in an ornate box, holding the gift bag with a mix of nervousness and apprehension as she entered the Wilderness Base City Lord’s Mansion.
"Outsiders are not allowed inside!"
Unexpectedly, the guards at the entrance stopped her cold.
The Ti Empress replied politely, "I’m your Young Master’s friend, here to visit him."
One guard gave a signal, and another ran inside to ask for instructions.
Ten minutes later, the guard returned and saluted,
"Ma’am, follow ."
The Ti Empress carried her bag and followed the guard smoothly inside, arriving at the rear hall of the Lord’s Mansion.
Right then, in the rear hall, Cheng Bingxi and Nangong Siyao’s families were gathered together, having lunch.
Nangong Siyao complained,
"Xiao Ye, seriously, he’s already ho, but he still won’t co to eat with us."
Cheng Bingxi said helplessly, "He just got married, so he’s probably spending ti with the bride."
Cheng Keke coughed, "The kid’s really accomplished now. He married so many beast girls, obviously he can’t focus all his energy on you guys."
Nangong Qitao nodded, "Yeah, you all need to have a little more understanding for him."
The guard led the Ti Empress in and announced,
"City Lord, Deputy City Lord, the Young Master’s friend is here."
Nangong Qitao and Cheng Keke stood up to greet her, looking over with surprise,
"Isn’t this the daughter of the Mu Family?"
"Young lady, co, eat with us."
Nangong Siyao affectionately pulled the Ti Empress to sit down, saying, "Qingxue, you didn’t have to bring any gifts coming here, you’re not an outsider."
The Ti Empress shook her head and took out the present, saying,
"Uncles, I’m not Mu Qingxue. I’m the Ti Empress."
"This is Dragon Shrinking Wine I collected a hundred thousand years ago, an ancient brew from the Nihility Sacred Race that was steeped with a perfected Emperor Realm flood dragon, drinking it is good for the body and it tastes great too."
Nangong Siyao was stunned, "Ti Empress?"
Cheng Bingxi looked calm, saying, "She really is the Ti Empress. So of her habits are different from Qingxue’s."
Nangong Qitao and Cheng Keke each took a bottle of the wine, mysterious runes glowing on the surface, and their faces showed so shock.
"This wine, it’s really a hundred thousand years old?"
"Damn, a hundred thousand years? Blue Star was still in the ancient era back then."
"Ti Empress, can I open it and take a look?"
Cheng Keke swallowed and said excitedly.
The Ti Empress smiled, "Since I’ve given it to you two uncles, the wine’s yours now, of course you can open it."
Cheng Keke pulled out the cork.
"Groar!!"
A majestic dragon’s roar bood from the bottle, echoing through the entire City Lord’s Mansion.
A phantom flood dragon swam around inside the bottle.
The ancient, llow fragrance of the wine quickly filled the whole rear hall.
"Damn! A flood dragon’s shadow."
"This really is an ancient brew over ten thousand years old."
Cheng Keke and Nangong Qitao gasped in awe.
Nangong Qitao waved his hand, and the fair maid beside him imdiately brought over a wine pot, but deep in her eyes flashed a trace of greed, slyly scratching Nangong Qitao’s palm and throwing a flirty look at him.
Nangong Qitao’s face turned cold, and he scolded,
"That’s your second ti overstepping. I thought the first ti was an accident, but you’re still doing this. You’re grounded for a month. Think over your mistakes during your confinent, and after a month go ho—you’re not suited to be my maid anymore."
The fair maid looked stunned and hurried to say, "Master, I didn’t an it. The wine pot was just too slippery—I just wanted to help you hold it tighter."
Nangong Qitao’s face softened, and he waved his hand, "Forget it then, you didn’t an it. I’ll let it go this ti."
"If it happens again, you’ll be kicked out of the City Lord’s Mansion!"
The fair maid’s eyes couldn’t hide her disdain, but on the surface she said gratefully,
"Thank you, City Lord, for understanding."
Nangong Qitao snorted, then carefully picked up the ancient wine bottle, dropped just one drop of Dragon Shrinking Wine into the pot, then diluted it with thousand-year-old vintage wine.
The rich, intense fragrance instantly filled every corner of the rear hall.
He poured everyone a glass of the diluted Dragon Shrinking Wine, saying happily,
"Let’s all have a glass, taste what a hundred thousand years old ancient wine is like, haha."
Cheng Keke showed a greedy look in his eyes, and downed his glass in one gulp.
"Mmm!"
They blushed with happiness, exclaiming,
"Nice! This wine is really good, worthy of a hundred thousand years of aging."
As soon as they finished, Nangong Qitao and Cheng Keke passed out drunk, collapsing onto the table and snoring.
Cheng Bingxi rubbed her forehead helplessly.
Nangong Siyao’s face froze in shock.
Their mother said, "You kids chat, we’re heading inside. Ugh, just look at these guys, always loved their drink—serves them right."
They each dragged their husbands away.
Nangong Qitao’s fair maid, however, stayed behind, her eyes going wild with madness deep inside.
Cheng Bingxi said coolly,
"Ti Empress, you brought such a valuable gift here, did you need sothing?"
Nangong Siyao nodded, "Got sothing on your mind? Go ahead and say it."
The Ti Empress frowned and shot a glance at the fair maid, feeling like she’d seen that aura sowhere before.
She withdrew her gaze, a little uneasy,
"Big Sister, Siyao, I ca here to tell you both what’s on my mind."
"I like the Human Emperor. I want to marry him."
Nangong Siyao blurted out, "Huh?"
"You want to marry Xiao Ye too?"
Cheng Bingxi’s expression turned serious, looking as if she’d expected this, and said coolly,
"I knew it!"
