Chapter 288: Is He Dead or Something?
Well, talk about a slap in the face; he shouldn't have asked that question.
"Also," Sang Luo said honestly, "Minos looks younger than you."
"..." That was just cruel! He hated hearing that!
Sang Luo continued, "Hmph, and another thing, Minos gave me his soul mark the first time, unlike someone who dragged their feet and hesitated for so long. They probably sized me up a hundred and eighty times in their mind before reluctantly giving it to me."
"If I had given it to you earlier, wouldn't that have made you suffer through the pain of Nirvana twice?" Fei Yuan's voice grew softer, completely outdone. He also caught the key information and changed the subject, "You've already mated with him? Where's the soul mark?"
This time, Sang Luo's momentum weakened.
Fei Yuan looked like he was about to take off her clothes.
The location of that mark was rather… uh, rather special. Sang Luo quickly blushed and grabbed his hand, scolding, "What's so good about looking at someone else's soul mark? No peeking!"
Fei Yuan saw her rare, bashful appearance, and his eyes narrowed dangerously. He became even more suspicious. Just where did that damned angel leave the soul mark?
Don't think he didn't know; these types who appear abstinent and aloof on the outside could be even more promiscuous than him when they really let loose.
"Let me see."
"No."
"Back, thigh, or where?"
"No, none of those…"
Fei Yuan almost choked; there weren't many places left.
"Just a peek, I'll just take a look."
"No, I said no."
"…"
Standoff, staring contest.
Fei Yuan conceded defeat and sighed, "You little ungrateful female, you forget the old when you see someone better!"
He forcefully pulled her into his arms and kissed her hard, "Xiao Ye said you've been gone for almost four months. If I hadn't come to find you today, were you planning on not coming back?"
"No, I was planning on going back in the next few days, but there are some things that need to be taken care of. I can't just leave without a word, can I? Minos will definitely chase after me to find me." Sang Luo looked up at Fei Yuan and kissed the corner of his lips, smiling, "You didn't even bring the children for me to see!"
"This is also my first time in the Sacred Domain. I'm not too sure about the situation here, so how could I easily bring those two precious things over? With Xiao Ye taking care of them in the palace, there's no need to worry." Fei Yuan pinched her cheek, "It's you I'm worried about. Remember to come back."
Still not completely reassured, he pressed for an answer, "When will you be back? Tell me, and I'll come to pick you up."
Sang Luo: …You probably won't be able to get in next time.
She had just used her spiritual power to see that Minos had personally gone to the Holy Palace to reinforce the seal. If an outsider intruded, he would immediately sense it. Any beastmen whose realm was below his would be instantly killed by the formation.
"You still shouldn't force your way into the Holy Palace. Minos is probably provoked by you and has personally reinforced the seal outside the Holy Palace. Your realm should still be a little lower than his, so you might be killed by the formation. Then I really won't be able to see you."
Fei Yuan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Then give me a hint; I can't wait."
"At the latest, in seven days, I'll definitely go back."
Minos was back.
"Have the two of you finished?"
Fei Yuan scoffed, "There's so much I want to say; I really can't finish it in a short time."
Minos glanced at him indifferently, the corners of his lips slightly raised, unhurriedly, "Now that you're here, why not stay in the Holy Palace for a few more days? I've already sent people to prepare a residence for His Majesty the Phoenix Emperor. There's plenty of time for us to have a long talk."
Fei Yuan smiled, "His Majesty the Holy Monarch is too kind, but there's no need to prepare so much. Xiao Luo and I are a legitimate couple; one room with her is enough." He even deliberately squeezed Sang Luo's hand, "Isn't that right? Xiao Luo, we've slept in the same bed for so many years; there's no need to be so distant."
Minos's face grew colder. This was the Holy Monarch and Holy Empress's bedroom!
He lived in the bedroom; where would he live?
Between the two males, undercurrents surged, and the atmosphere was tense!
Sang Luo reached out and pinched Fei Yuan's waist hard. This damned bird was really trying to provoke someone to death. Didn't he see that Minos's face was about to turn black as ink? She had known Minos for so long, and this was the first time she had seen the usually indifferent and calm Holy Monarch look so awful.
In Minos's heart, Fei Yuan had probably already been torn to pieces a thousand or eight hundred times.
Sang Luo didn't doubt that if she wasn't here, the two of them would have started fighting on the spot.
Fei Yuan had come to find her as soon as he came out of seclusion, constantly expressing his longing for her. Sang Luo couldn't bear to say harsh words, so she had to cough lightly and say to him in a low voice, "If you, if you want to stay for a few days, stay in the palace that Minos prepared."
Fei Yuan frowned and snorted softly, "No, the children are still waiting for me to go back and take care of them. This time, I came specifically to pick you up. If you don't want to leave, there's no point in me staying in this place."
Minos said lightly, "The banquet is already being prepared. Please, Your Majesty the Phoenix Emperor, stay for a chat tonight."
"Heh heh, it wouldn't be a Hongmen Banquet to take my life, would it?"
Sang Luo tugged at his sleeve, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
At least she was here, so the two of them could only secretly compete for her affection; it was impossible for them to really fight.
Minos smiled lightly, "Your Majesty the Phoenix Emperor will know once you go."
"Palm and back of the hand are both flesh," Sang Luo looked at the two tense men, her heart aching, not knowing what to do.
Fei Yuan gently stroked her hand, not wanting to involve her, "Since His Majesty the Holy Monarch has kindly invited me, I will respectfully accept. Let's set a time tonight to have a good talk."
"I couldn't ask for more."
"…"
Forget it, let them do whatever they want.
Sang Luo didn't expect anything else; she just hoped that no one would die.
Minos still had some things to deal with, so he left first.
Before he left, he glanced at Sang Luo, his eyes seeming a little lonely.
Sang Luo had just taken a step forward when Fei Yuan pulled her back. She looked at the smiling Fei Yuan and sighed. It was difficult to distribute one's heart evenly. She also realized that she was somewhat biased, biased towards her old beastman who had been with her longer.
Minos saw this scene, and the temperature in his eyes gradually cooled down.
For a moment, he was still that indifferent and aloof Holy Son, making it difficult for anyone to leave a trace in his eyes.
Minos went to the Holy Hall.
He had only just ascended to the throne, and he had a lot of things to deal with. He had been absurd for two months, and it was time to get down to business.
His heat period was over; he just wanted to drag Sang Luo along.
He wanted to drag her along for as long as he could, but Fei Yuan's arrival today shattered his extravagant hopes.
He couldn't even read half a page of the documents in his hand.
He supported himself on the desk with one hand and pressed his temples.
Headache.
A servant offered cool tea.
Minos held the teacup, closed his eyes, and asked casually, "What are those two doing now?"
The servant glanced at him uneasily. The entire Holy Hall was under the Holy Monarch's control. What didn't His Majesty the Holy Monarch know? Did he still need to ask him?
"Probably… maybe they're taking a walk in the garden, or maybe…"
"Pa!"
The teacup broke in response, and the servant was startled, rushing forward to clean up.
Minos's fingers clenched tightly, turning pale white, his hand full of tea. His face was extremely calm, his blue pupils turning into vertical golden pupils, his aura terrifying.
That damned bird dared to flirt in his bedroom!
"Someone, prepare a banquet for the Phoenix Emperor."
If he didn't do something, his child might really be ranked next.
