Chapter 224: #224 - You trust outsiders, but not me?

……

Everything blurred before Sang Luo's eyes, and she didn't know what ghostly place she'd been dragged to. It was dark and gloomy, like being buried underground, almost suffocating.

Strands of intangible black mist gathered like vipers, coiling around her limbs, and some even tried to burrow into her ears and mouth… Crap!

Sang Luo cursed under her breath, her hand rising and falling like a knife, the firelight slicing through and severing all the black mist.

The black mist beneath her feet then formed a mire, sucking her in like a magnet, and even using her innate powers, she couldn't break free, and could only let her body sink little by little.

A slender, strong hand suddenly appeared, pulling her out of the mire. She couldn't see who it was in the darkness, and she almost cried out, but the next second, the man reached out and covered her mouth.

“Save your strength, don't open your mouth. There's a toxin in this demonic energy.”

A familiar, low, and seductive voice sounded.

It was Fei Yuan!

She hadn't expected that the person who came to save her would actually be him.

Fei Yuan grabbed her head and buried it in his chest, flying upwards towards the exit.

The moment the two of them left, a soaring flame rose behind them, turning the depths of the altar into ruins.

Fei Yuan carried Sang Luo out and back to the ground, but he didn't let go of her.

He reached out and pinched her chin, his dark phoenix eyes losing their usual warm teasing, and he stared at her intently.

“Hiding for so long, have you hidden enough?”

Sang Luo felt inexplicably intimidated by his stare, and hearing his rhetorical question, an inexplicable fire rose in her heart, “Who's specifically hiding from you? You think too highly of yourself!”

She pushed him away forcefully.

“Let go, don't hug my waist, it's squeezing my stomach!”

The man's strength was great, but she easily pushed him away. Sang Luo didn't walk two steps before he suddenly grabbed her hand again, and she fell into his arms.

“Fei Yuan! You—”

Fei Yuan lowered his head and kissed her, blocking all the words she hadn't spoken back down her throat.

He pinched her waist with both hands, kissing her madly against the tree, making it difficult to resist, as if to compensate for all the tenderness of these days.

Sang Luo was kissed until she could barely breathe, her hands weakly pushing against his chest, but remembering the outrageous things he had done, the somewhat dazed look in her eyes was replaced by shame and annoyance.

She bit his tongue fiercely, drawing blood, and Fei Yuan took two steps back before letting her go.

Sang Luo's chest heaved with anger, and she quickly walked away, as far away from him as possible.

Not forgetting to look around, she saw a deserted altar.

Fei Yuan's gaze fell on her, his fingers lingering on his lips, following her step by step.

The two of them didn't speak for a long time.

“…How did you find me?” Sang Luo couldn't hold back and spoke first, “I clearly erased the tracking mark you left on me.”

“I didn't just leave a tracking mark on you.” Fei Yuan's voice was lazy, “Your Qiankun bag, space ring, space bracelet… which one doesn't have a tracking mark I left behind?”

“…” She was careless!

“Come back with me.” Fei Yuan walked forward and took her hand, “The Marquis's residence isn't safe either, it's better to keep you by my side, at least I can keep an eye on you.”

“I don't want to see you flirting with females.”

Fei Yuan looked at her for a while, and a slight smile gradually appeared in his beautiful black eyes, “Are you jealous?”

Sang Luo glared at him unhappily, as if she would be jealous!

Fei Yuan reached out and pinched her face, her cheeks bulging, as if kneading dough, “Luo'er once said that she doesn't love me, but she's still jealous.”

Sang Luo slapped his hand away and strode forward, “I'm not in the mood to joke with you!”

Fei Yuan followed slowly again, but he wasn't as presumptuous as before, keeping a few meters away from her, “Come back to the palace with me, I'll arrange Le Xia's residence in the farthest west side hall, I promise you'll never see her.”

“Is it not tiring for a dignified Phoenix Emperor to shuttle between two females every day?” Sang Luo stopped, but didn't turn around, “Your Majesty doesn't need to go to so much trouble, I won't go back to the Phoenix Palace. Le Xia ruined her face to save you, don't mistreat her.”

“Is that what she told you?” Fei Yuan frowned, “Then if I said that the injury on her face has nothing to do with me, that she secretly eliminated many opponents by relying on her unlimited favor back then, and that she once wanted to eliminate a female consort who had a feud with her father's clan, but she didn't expect to lose more than she gained and injured her face, would you believe it?”

Sang Luo didn't speak and continued walking forward.

Fei Yuan teleported to her side, hugged her tightly, and said in a suppressed voice, “You believe what outsiders say, why don't you listen to my explanation? Believe my words?”

“I don't want to listen.” Sang Luo looked at him seriously, “Your Majesty hasn't heard the saying that a male beast's mouth is a deceiving ghost?”

“…”

“There's also a saying that an explanation is a cover-up, a cover-up is a fact, and a fact is dishonesty!”

She was always sharp-tongued.

Fei Yuan sighed softly, “Luo'er is right, a glib-tongued male beast cannot be trusted, you have to see what he actually does.”

His emotions were complicated, and his voice was low, “But if you count all the things I've done for you, can't you see my true heart? A few words of provocation from outsiders can make you so suspicious of me?”

Sang Luo didn't refute this sentence. Fei Yuan, whether for her sake or for the sake of the child in her belly, had definitely put in no less effort than any of her male husbands, even far exceeding them…

In order to win her heart, he sacrificed a Nirvana life to save a strange male beast who had nothing to do with him, which was the most touching thing…

As for what Le Xia said, that Fei Yuan had sacrificed a Nirvana life for her, Sang Luo knew she was lying at the time using the Eye of Judgment. That female was completely lying, there wasn't a word of truth in her mouth, she just wanted to stimulate her to leave the Phoenix Palace.

However, knowing it was one thing, but it was also true that Fei Yuan's subsequent actions did not give her the sense of security needed to breed offspring.

“That's also because Your Majesty gave others the opportunity. If you really made me feel reliable, how could I believe others?”

“The male attendants around me all say that females are the most likely to make false accusations, and it's true.”

Sang Luo glared at him, “It's clearly because Your Majesty yourself isn't clean, you're a…”

“Second-hand goods.” Fei Yuan finished the sentence.

“You, you heard that?” Sang Luo pursed her lips in surprise.

She saw it with her mental power when she entered the palace last time. Fei Yuan wasn't in the Yangxin Palace. Lying on the bed was another unfamiliar young royal beast, Le Xia's lover.

He should be in seclusion refining pills.

“The entire palace is mine, what could I not know?”

“Then do you know that Le Xia is cheating on you behind your back?”

“I know, she needs to absorb enough Yuanyang to treat the poisonous wound on her face.” Fei Yuan looked at her intently and asked, “Then have you cheated on me behind my back?”

Sang Luo's face flushed, and she said mercilessly, “You're a second-hand good, who allowed you to ask me that?”

“It's just that little Luo'er was born too late, and I didn't meet you earlier. It's impossible for me to have been alone for hundreds of years. If I hadn't experienced any love affairs, I'd be a stone, not a person.” Fei Yuan said in a low, hoarse voice, “Those who have lived for thousands of years and still lie to you about not knowing love affairs are the real bad males who want to deceive you.”

There's another chapter in the middle of the night, babies can wake up and read it tomorrow!
