Chapter 378: Gratitude? Atonement!
Sang Luo was shocked, "I originally thought it would be Quan Jin or Fei Yuan, but I didn't expect it to be the Great Priest of the Beast God?"
Minos nodded in agreement, sitting beside her on the bed, gently massaging her shoulders to relieve her fatigue from last night, and explaining softly, "When I was possessed by the Fallen Angel, I almost reached the level of a Quasi-God. Even if Quan Jin and Fenghuang joined forces, it would have been difficult to suppress me. In the end, that Divine Venerable personally took action to suppress Cruise and helped replace my soul bone."
Sang Luo lay on the bed, shifting into a more comfortable position, placing her calves on Minos's thighs, enjoying his service contentedly, while her thoughts drifted far away.
Yan might not know that she was awake yet and hadn't come to seek justice from her, but she could hide from the first day, but not the fifteenth… She didn't believe that he would actively help his beastman husband. Minos had no connection with him, and the two didn't even know each other.
Sang Luo guessed, "Did Fei Yuan ask him to come?"
Minos shook his head, "That is unknown."
He looked at Sang Luo's exquisite and beautiful face, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly.
It wasn't that he didn't know about what happened between her and Yan.
Luo Luo took such a risk for his sake. She had said long ago that she didn't want to be with other beastman husbands anymore, and because of this, she was forced to get involved with a male she didn't love… It was false to say that Minos wasn't moved, but at the same time, there was a hint of sourness and sadness in his heart. Perhaps the Divine Venerable helped him because of her.
When Cruise controlled Minos's body, his consciousness was suppressed, but he didn't completely lose his ability to perceive the outside world.
When Cruise saw that Great Priest, he said something in great fear.
"Yan, you're still alive!"
The two knew each other.
The Divine Venerable and the Fallen Angel were both remnant gods from ancient times.
That nine-tailed fox didn't know how many tens of thousands of years he had lived, and his strength was even more unfathomable.
Whether it was a blessing or a curse that Luo Luo became entangled with him.
Sang Luo naturally didn't know that Minos's mind was filled with thousands of thoughts. The strength in her legs stopped, and she glanced at him, seeing his silent and slightly cold expression, and called out softly, "Minos?"
"Hmm? What's wrong, Luo Luo?" He came back to his senses, his smile gentle.
"I'm thirsty, help me pour a glass of water."
"Okay, I recently sun-dried a batch of flower tea, I'll make you some to try." Minos bent down and kissed her cheek before reluctantly leaving.
Sang Luo watched his departing back, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and smile. After returning this time, this holy lord, who was as aloof and abstinent as a god, seemed to be getting more and more clingy, even more so than when she was pregnant!
Minos quickly returned, brewed a cup of rose tea, added two rock candies, and the water temperature was just right.
Sang Luo took a sip, it was sweet, and her mouth was filled with the fragrance of roses.
Sweet but not greasy, it was extremely delicious, "Your flower tea is well-made, send me a few packets, I'll drink it every morning and evening."
"Okay, what flavors do you like? I'll make more when I have time."
"Just make it according to your taste."
After Sang Luo finished her tea, Minos took the teacup from her hand and placed it on the table, took off his outer robe, lay on the outer side of the bed, and naturally put Sang Luo in his arms, feeling her delicate body with incomparable satisfaction.
Sang Luo had a habit of taking a nap. She leaned on Minos's chest. Minos liked to tend to flowers and plants in his spare time, and his body was also stained with a faint floral fragrance.
She lightly sniffed the pleasant fragrance on his body, and her consciousness gradually became blurred.
Her voice was soft,
"I should meet Yan and thank him in person…"
Minos's slender fingers slowly ran through her smooth hair, "I already thanked him personally a long time ago."
"When?"
"I asked Fenghuang. The Divine Venerable resides in Qingqiu. After I took you to the Holy Palace that year, I went to Qingqiu several times to thank him in person." Minos spoke, feeling a little regretful, "Qingqiu is an isolated paradise, and I was turned away several times. Later, Fenghuang took me there, but that Divine Venerable didn't accept my gifts either. Later, I entrusted Fenghuang to pass the gifts on to the Divine Venerable."
"…" Sang Luo's mind became a little clearer, and she couldn't help but guess in her heart, could it be that the Great Priest wanted her to come forward in person?
She shook her head, "You thanked him for your part, I have to go there myself. Qingqiu… I've seen it on the map, it's in an area where the central and southern parts of the Eastern Continent meet."
Rather than saying it was gratitude, it was more like—atonement!
The fact that the other party hadn't come to seek revenge on her didn't mean that the incident hadn't happened!
She took advantage of him, so she should atone for it!
Hopefully, that Divine Venerable wouldn't dismember her into eight pieces to vent his anger…
Alas, Fei Yuan was his beloved disciple after all. Even if it was for Fei Yuan's sake, he shouldn't take her little life, right…
She even helped save his life, but according to his tone last time, it seemed that he didn't need it…
Alas, she would bring Fei Yuan with her when the time came, and ask him to say some good words and beg for mercy.
After Sang Luo stayed in the Holy Palace for a few days, she returned to Fenghuang Palace. Fei Yuan hadn't returned yet. According to the servants in the palace, His Majesty went to Qingqiu some days ago and was delayed by some matters and hadn't returned yet.
Sang Luo had traveled north and south over the years and had saved a lot of treasures. She selected precious gifts from the space as thank-you gifts. Before leaving, she dressed up solemnly. As soon as she arrived at Qingqiu, she ran into a rainy day.
Qingqiu was isolated from the world, and there were beastmen guarding the border. Sang Luo didn't have an invitation and was turned away, and couldn't even find a place to hide from the rain.
Sang Luo could break through and enter, but it was somewhat impolite.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier.
Sang Luo squatted under a tree, not caring that her clothes were soaked, and her shoes and hem were covered in mud.
A red umbrella printed with Hehuan flowers covered her head, and a charming male voice with laughter came from above,
"Hmm? Let me see whose pitiful little female is hiding from the rain under a tree."
Sang Luo looked up at the Mo Fa beauty in Xuan clothes holding a red umbrella, her narrow phoenix eyes were charming and soul-stirring, and the corners of her lips were slightly hooked with boundless temptation, looking at her with a playful and amused expression.
Sang Luo's teeth suddenly felt a little itchy, and she stood up and pinched his arm, "You still know to come see me?"
Fei Yuan hissed, "Good Luo'er, be gentle, why are you so heavy-handed with your husband?"
Sang Luo snorted, didn't grab his ear to reprimand him, she was being gentle, "Knowing it hurts, you still dare to find other females to go in and out in pairs. I see that you don't remember anything!"
"…Who told you?" Fei Yuan's phoenix eyes widened, and then he realized who it was, and complained, "Xiao Ye, this child has learned badly, and is always secretly reporting me to you."
"So it's true?"
"Little Luo'er is jealous~"
"I'm not."
Fei Yuan liked to tease Sang Luo, seeing her cute and angry look, but he didn't dare to tease her too much. He pinched her face and explained with amusement, "My people and heart are full of you. Who in the outside world doesn't know that Fenghuang is a henpecked husband? Who would dare to send people to my bed against the grain? The noble female from that Beast King's family is proficient in music, and I intend to invite her into the palace to be a music teacher for the two children."
"Oh~ so that's how it is~" Sang Luo wasn't really angry. It was just a little fun between them. After so long, how could she not believe Fei Yuan's affection for her? "It's also good for the children to learn about qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Whether they can learn it or not is another matter. Cultivating their sentiments is also very good."
Fei Yuan pinched her soft palm, "What about you? Why did you come to Qingqiu?"
