The Second Concubine was livid, but much more calculating than the Third Concubine. Her daughter, Hua Mengshi smiled in an attempt to please Madam Hua, "Grandma, sister Qiyue is so filial. You are very lucky."

Madam Cheng agreed with a smile. "My Madam, Mengshi is right. Qiyue is finally sensible now. It indeed benefits our family, especially you. We apologize for our misunderstanding of Qiyue."

The Old Madam appeared to be calmed by their words and asked Hua Qiyue and Tianci to sit beside her, ignoring Madam Cheng's complaints about Qiyue's hiding of rare medicinal herbs.

Lvxin and Youshui looked at each other, confused. Was what happened to the Third Concubine and Hua Xiaoyi the show Hua Qiyue had told them to expect?

The Old Madam sat on the white jade couch carved with a dragon and phoenix. It was no surprise she picked the coolest couch during the mugginess of June.

Tianci timidly sat beside the Old Madame. At the

    The Second Concubine was filled with resentment. She hadn't expected Butler Wang to personally remind Old Madame to attend the charity event. If he had informed her privately, she could have thought of a way to borrow some silver."Now, Butler Wang. What did you say?" The Old Madame was furious and only calmed down slightly after Hua Qiyue softly muttered words of comfort. She glared at Butler Wang, who knelt on the floor.Butler Wang trembled as he kowtowed, cold sweat dripping all over his forehead as he pleaded, "Madame Hua… your servant… your servant has made a mistake. I shouldn't have kept this from you. It is because… the Second Concubine always sends me to purchase her elixirs!"The Second Concubine looked sharply at Butler Wang.She knew he must have taken the initiative to confess in order to obtain the Old Madame's forgiveness first. But the way he brazenly came to the main hall to remind her of the charity implied he’d

    The Third Concubine's face turned pale. "Blacky! No! Come back! "A smile played across Hua Mengshi's lips.With the Long Red destroyed by the Third Concubine’s dog, Madam Hua and Hua Qiyue would blame her and Hua Xiaoyi. Plus, it would remove Qiyue’s leverage over the family’s income. Meanwhile, any ire Hua Mengshi had been receiving from Madam Hua would be lessened while her attention was on those who had destroyed the Long Reds.Quick as a wink, the black dog stepped into the red clay. But, just as it was about to trample one of the divine herbs, all of the Long Reds in the yard disappeared!The black dog slammed into the wall and fell to the ground, dazed.Frightened, the Third Concubine quickly gave order for Blacky to be taken away. She glanced suspiciously at the Second Concubine and Hua Mengshi.Where did they go?The Second Concubine, Cheng, was so surprised, that she didn’t even noti

    "Miss, you are really smart. I didn't expect the Third Concubine to show up in person," Lvxin said, awestruck.Hua Qiyue faintly raised her eyebrows and said, "Not only the Third Concubine, but the Second Concubine, as well. "Youshui was scared. "No way! Why would she come here?"Lvxin looked at Hua Qiyue in surprise. In her experience, Concubine Cheng had always been proud, unlike Concubine Pan, who conducted herself in a proper manner. There was no way the Second Concubine would come here.However, there were soon footsteps outside and, a moment later, Concubine Cheng came in with Hua Mengshi and two maids.Nanny Luo was standing beside Cheng, there was a big box in her hands. She appeared respectful, with no hint of malice."My, but you’re having dinner quite late! Qiyue, we are here to apologize to you." Cheng said with a faint smile. Hua Mengshi's face lowered, hiding her expression, but Qiyue could

    Concubine Cheng forced herself to relax. At least Hua Mengshi had controlled herself. If she hadn’t, they’d be in front of Madam Hua in the morning, and that was something neither she nor Mengshi could afford."Mom... why not we hire an assassin to kill that bitch and her bastard!" Thinking about the seductive Long Red in the garden, an angry light reflected from Hua Mengshi's eyes. "Kill them, and Long Red will belong to Hua Mansion!"Second Madame chided her harshly. "Mengshi! Don't spew rubbish! Hua Qiyue is clearly different than she once was, which means she must have support. We need to find out who it is. If she has powerful allies and we act harshly, we would be in even deeper trouble than we are now!"Hua Mengshi's eyes turned red from anger. "So you’ll allow them to bully your daughter and ignore my suffering?"Second Madame looked at her lovingly and replied, "Mengshi, a great man will need to learn to endure. Now that w

    Tianpi frowned."The Purple Lotus Phoenix Ice can only be found in the wild, and requires very specific growing conditions. Xuanmin Mountain, in Changjing Kingdom, was always frozen — the ice and snow never melted. The Purple Lotus grew on the icy mountain and blossomed on the 7th of July every year. If it snowed on that day, Phoenix Ice might be formed. By itself, the Purple Lotus has no value. So… no. We cannot manually produce the flower."Hua Qiyue’s heart fell at Tianpi's explanation. This meant she would have to participate in the martial arts tournament!Tianpi continued, "As you can tell, Purple Lotus Phoenix Ice is extremely precious. Isn't the Ji family holding a martial arts tournament with that as the prize? All you have to do is win!"He made it sound so easy, but Hua Qiyue had only reached the Grand Completion Assimilation Stage, not even the bottom tier of Oracle Profound.She knew that Hua Mengshi had c

    After a time, there was a loud splashing sound, and a veil of mist rose up around Hua Qiyue's body. The mist was light blue and slashed beautifully across the gloomy sky.Suddenly, a crack appeared in the sky as a beam of light descended on Tianpi!In just two hours of cultivating Spirit Summoning Art, her Qi Art had advanced to the bottom tier of Oracle Profound!Hua Qiyue slowly opened her eyes.A slow clap sounded across the hot spring."Hua Qiyue, you are, indeed, a genius. So strong, to have progressed by one standard in merely two hours!"Tianpi laughed giddily, as if he had progressed, instead of Hua Qiyue.She pursed her lips slightly, clasping her hands together to absorb the spiritual qi once more.Instead of returning to the outside world, she spent the night cultivating her skills diligently in the hot spring.She knew that she needed to be at least at the

    Hua Qiyue laughed and gestured for Youshui to continue combing her hair.Lvxin's heart roiled with waves of surprise, though it was the good kind of surprise. She recalled the changes she had seen in the young lady over the past few days. If she really did participate in the martial arts tournament, who knew what results she could achieve.After washing up, Hua Qiyue went to the grand hall. When Tianci saw her, he pattered towards her and grasped her hand tightly. His expressions was pained, as if he was asking why she didn’t let him sleep in her bed."Mommy had a bit of a cold last night. I was worried you'd catch it, too, so I asked you to sleep with sister Lvxin. Understand?"He nodded vigorously, and Hua Qiyue was relieved.After breakfast, Hua Qiyue and the little guy headed over to Fu Xin Hall to see Madame Hua."Come, sit beside grandmother. Tianci, you, too."Hua Qiyue obeyed and led T

    As two of the most beautiful women in a sea of beautiful women, countless pairs of eyes were now set upon them.Second Madame nodded. "Yes, that's right. You need not trouble yourself with the queue. We'll enroll on your behalf!"As they spoke, Second Madame's turn had arrived. Stepping forward, Second Madame enrolled for both Hua Mengshi and Hua Qiyue before submitting her own enrollment.Beside them, the servants were having endless discussions. Hua Qiyue had begun receiving all kinds of sweeping looks from the crowd.Hua Qiyue's lips curved slightly. Lvxin's eyes widened in surprise as her innocent mind finally caught up. "Miss... I think I understand..."Hua Qiyue glanced nonchalantly at Second Madame's cheerful face. The woman looked as if she had just stumbled upon the best luck in the world.Of course, she and her daughter both assumed that she was about to die. Why would they not be happy?

    The Fiery Divine Tree wrapped its branches around the white jade vial. It was greatly shocked. "Is this... an Essence Pearl? Are you... are you imparting all your powers to her?" Tianpi raised his brows. "She's my disciple. So why not? If you won't do it, I still have enough energy to destroy this forest. You must know that I'm half-demonized. Even you won't be my match." The Fiery Divine Tree went silent. Then it sighed lightly. "Ah... Very well then, I shall make this trip for you. But... I'm still shocked by your act. This must be a penance over the Peach Fairy?" "Old fellow, you're a busybody!" Tianpi raised his brows, very displeased. A wicked smile hovered over his diabolically handsome face. "Set off at once. And don't tell her it's from me. Tell her it's your gift to her. That bird and that stinking lad won't know what it is..." The Fiery Divine Tree silently departed. Once it left, Tianpi leaned against the gigantic tr

    "Mom, what's wrong?" While Hua Qiyue was frantically searching for Tianci, a familiar boyish voice made her turn her head at once. She saw Hua Zun pulling Tianci and watching her curiously. When he found Hua Qiyue all drenched in blood, Hua Zun was greatly shocked. Tianci hurriedly threw himself forward. Hua Qiyue saw him and embraced Tianci fiercely in her arms. "Go at once... go quickly. In a moment, he will be here, he will be here!" Hua Qiyue cried out in terror. Night had fallen. All around in the forest were dense, overlapping shadows. It seemed that Tianpi's figure was everywhere! He seemed to be here everywhere. His presence drove Hua Qiyue to extreme panic. "Qiyue, what's wrong? What happened?" Hua Zun was frightened and stunned. It took him a long time to recover. By then, Hua Qiyue had already lifted Tianci up and raced away from Hua Zun's sight. Hua Zun followed closely behind. They left

    "Qiyue is not willing to consummate our relationship, nor am I willing to hurt her. Even though I've demonized... I still retain a shred of sanity. Yun Shimo, don't you have a whiff of Qi from the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead? Force that Qi out for me now!" Tianpi cruelly curled up the corners of his lips. He was laughing smugly, his bloodshot eyes glittering with chill. "Otherwise, I will do something you won't want to see..." After he said this, he kissed Hua Qiyue's raven hair. Yun Shimo suddenly and tightly clenched his fists. Hua Qiyue was gasping slightly. She had never expected Tianpi to act this way. If Yun Shimo refused, would he kill her? "Didn't you say you are unwilling to hurt her? So release her now! You want the Qi from the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead? I'll let you have it!" Yun Shimo did not hesitate at all. Although he hated Tianpi for acting so wickedly, he was even more afraid that Hua Qiyue wo

    She had said repeatedly that she would not marry Yun Shimo but Tianpi. Yet right now, she could not but be concerned over him. She was really a cheap slut! Hua Qiyue took a step back and left, heading for Ice Palace in a distraught state. She was afraid she would involuntarily go near him if she had stayed another second. Only after Hua Qiyue ran away did Yun Shimo slowly turned his body. He watched the direction from which she had left and smiled a bitter smile. He thought that she would still show him some care. But she could not overcome the hurdle in her heart. Forget it then! Let her do what she likes! Yun Shimo was already under the tree for a day and a night. His whole body had turned numb thanks to the cold. It it weren't for the anima energy inside his body, he would have frozen to death. After thinking for a day and a night, Yun Shimo came to a conclusion. Let Hua Qiyue live her life as she

    On his arm was his blood-drenched robe. Hua Qiyue silently took them. "Let me wash it for you. Have a good rest." A blissful smile unfolded on Tianpi's pale face. "Haha, lass, you're so understanding. Thank you." Hua Qiyue rolled her eyes at him. They were already at their wits' end and yet he had the gall to joke with her. After washing his robe, she lay it out to dry in the sun. Then she went into the kitchen to heat up the tonic he had yet to finish and brought it to him. Tianpi had not yet fallen asleep. He was sitting cross-legged silently on his bed. When he heard the noise, Tianpi opened his eyes. He found Hua Qiyue had already brought him the soup. Pursing his lips, he gave a light smile. "Lass, you're more and more virtuous. Why don't we get married? After all, you won't accept Yun Shimo." It was a joke but it made Hua Qiyue crease her brows softly. She gave no answer, serving him the soup i

    The Sun Moon Deity fumbled inside his Storage Ring and finally fished out a scroll. Hua Qiyue immediately unfurled it. It contained a rune sealing art. Since she, Yun Shimo and the Sun Moon Deity all understood runes, it would not be too difficult to execute such a sealing art. "The requirement is that you must have reached the first level of Great Deity. I've just reached that level. So it shouldn't be a problem, right?" Hua Qiyue glanced at the scroll and then threw it to Tianpi. When Tianpi saw the procedure inside, his wan face showed indifference. "It doesn't matter. Let's try it." Hua Qiyue heard him and was exceptionally happy. After Tianpi had been resealed, he could come out after the demonic energy in his body cleared. Hua Zun was rather suspicious. "Will it work? The rune sealing art 10,000 years ago was very powerful. Hare, are you sure your scroll isn't a counterfeit?" The

    Was that... the demonic energy? Wasn't there only a slight whiff of it? It seemed there was a lot of demonic energy. Hua Qiyue's heart began to worry. As Tianpi gave a muffled snort, her nerves began to tense. Red hair began to sprout slowly on Tianpi's face. He seemed like a monkey. He gave another muffled snort and a white circle of light condensed desperately in his hand. Tianpi struck that white light forcefully on his head. Instantly, the crimson light on his body waned somewhat. But his striking hand had opened up a large gash on his face. Blood trickled down... Hua Qiyue could not bear to look. She turned away her head forcefully and headed out. Tianpi claimed that he was fine in the day, but he was lying. He must have wanted her not to worry. After Hua Qiyue left, Tianpi managed successfully to curb that layer of demonic energy. But he knew that every midnight, he would suffer from its attack! When the dem

    Hua Qiyue was gasping. She shook herself free of Yun Shimo's hand and her eyes were full of mounting anger. "He's already so poorly. So how can I not worry? Please get lost, Yun Shimo. It's none of your business!" Yun Shimo watched the exceptionally vexed Hua Qiyue and heaved a deep breath. "I will find him back." The moment Yun Shimo said this, Hua Zun also stepped out. "I will go too." He was afraid Yun Shimo would try some wicked scheme on Tianpi. Tianci pulled Hua Qiyue's hand. "Mom, I'd like to find Grandmaster too." "Be good, Tianci. We will stay here. In a moment, dad will bring your Grandmaster back." Yun Shimo glanced at Hua Qiyue and then departed Ice Palace with Hua Zun. Watching them disappear in an instant, Hua Qiyue's heart was disconcerted. Tianpi had left because he did not wish to harm her. But she was, after all, indebted to him for her reborn life. So how could she ju

    Hua Qiyue frowned and said, very displeased, "Do you guys have the habit of voyeurism?" Tianpi gave a light snort. "I merely can't stand you two. Since you won't accept another man, you might as well be with him." Hua Qiyue's emotions were suddenly stirred. "Who says I can't accept another man?" "You can? If you can, why treat Hua Zun so coldly? Why reject the others so completely?" Tianpi flatly curved up the corners of his lips. "Because I owe you too much in your former life, I won't force you now. I will respect whoever you choose. But you don't need to mind the past so much." Mind? Hua Qiyue's face sank. In Tianyuan Continent, women regarded their chastity as more important than their lives. Could Tianpi's mere words make her forgive the past? Tianpi started to wave his fan coquettishly. Hua Qiyue cursed him as a nutcase. The weather was so cold and yet he was playing with her Drunken Flower Fan!
