Chapter 383: The Fox Clan Only Has One Mate
"What's wrong?"
The old village chief hesitated, "This… When I used to serve by the God Lord's side, I never saw him bring a female back to his residence, let alone let someone stay overnight. He didn't even bring strange males back!"
Sang Luo was momentarily stunned, using tea to hide her embarrassment.
Her relationship with Yan was difficult to explain.
If you said they had no relationship, their bodies had shared that intimate moment.
If you said they had a relationship, it didn't seem like they had much of one.
Seeing her silence, which outsiders would interpret as shy admission, the village chief's gossip flared up, "Is the esteemed female the God Lord's mate?"
Pfft!
She almost spat out a mouthful of tea.
This old village chief was certainly direct!
Sang Luo hurriedly explained, "No, he and I are just… I want to become the God Lord's disciple, but the God Lord hasn't agreed immediately. I'm still in a probationary period. I have nowhere else to go, and the God Lord is generous and kind, so he simply let me stay."
"Oh, is that so?" The village chief looked a little disappointed.
"Alas, the God Lord has been without children for many years. If he reaches the end of his lifespan without leaving behind a female or a male, the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox clan might truly become extinct…"
"The God Lord has lived for so many years. He must have encountered powerful and admired females in his youth. It wouldn't be difficult for him to have a child. Could it be that he… doesn't like children?" Sang Luo's thoughts turned, probing.
"What male beast wouldn't like children? Cherishing offspring is an instinct engraved in a male beast's bones. I'm afraid it's just that…" The old village chief seemed to think of something but didn't continue.
Once Jingshan was settled.
Sang Luo also returned and went straight to the study. If Yan wasn't tending the herb garden, he was reading medical books in the study.
"Reporting to the God Lord, the mission is successfully completed! Does this count as me passing the assessment?" She put her hands behind her back, smiling playfully.
Yan knew everything she had done there, and it could indeed be considered a successful completion.
Yan half-closed the book in his hand, looked up at Sang Luo's delicate and beautiful face, her curved willow eyebrows, her narrowed and beautiful almond eyes, the corners of her eyes slightly upturned, her cunning and agility revealing a hint of alluring tenderness, and her smile as sweet and warm as sunshine, causing his gaze to flicker slightly.
His long eyes drooped slightly, his tone as usual, gentle, "I still say the same thing, I don't have a fondness for taking disciples."
"Ah?"
"If you want to learn medical skills, you can ask me at any time. Let's skip the formality of master and disciple… I will also help find a solution for your child's illness."
Sang Luo was dazed by the surprise, "What the High Priest said is true?!"
Yan raised his eyes to look at her.
She understood and quickly changed her words, "Thank you so much, Yan!"
Thinking of his ancestor-like unknown age, she felt a little awkward calling him that.
She also took out a letter and handed it to him.
"After you scattered your soul and ascended a hundred years ago, Qingqiu gained a new Beast Emperor. Originally, he was about to sit on the throne of Qingqiu, but he didn't expect you to come back. He probably holds a grudge and wants to drag you down, spreading rumors everywhere. This time, when I went to deliver medicine, I was also slandered and stopped by his subordinates… All the evidence I've collected these days is here. I won't worry about the rest!"
Consider it her thank you gift.
Yan nodded and accepted it.
Sang Luo stretched lazily, "I haven't had a good night's sleep these days. I'm tired too. I'll go back and catch up on sleep first!"
"Yes, the weather is good today, and the bedding has been sunned." Yan got up and walked in front of her.
The faint scent of medicine wafted over. The two were very close. Sang Luo paused, her heart beating faster. Yan just lowered his head, grabbed her sleeve, and felt it, "Qingqiu has had a lot of cold autumn rain recently. The clothes you're wearing are a bit thin. I'll prepare some new clothes for you later."
Sang Luo breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little regretful for some reason, and nodded, flattered, "Thank you, Da… Yan!"
"Go back and rest early. Tomorrow at Chenshi, I'll take you to study."
Sang Luo nodded seriously. Chenshi was eight in the morning. She would go back to her room and burrow into the covers to sleep.
… …
Late at night.
The moon was bright, and the night was dark.
The room was quiet.
The person on the bed was sleeping soundly, her sleeping face gentle and peaceful, her lips red and alluring. Any male beast who saw this scene would probably find it difficult to control himself.
Yan stood in front of the bed, his eyes no longer as clear as during the day, but with a hint of depth.
He stretched out his slender, jade-like fingers, wanting to stroke her face, but stopped and retracted his hand just before touching her.
Desire, entanglement, hesitation, confusion…
His heart was wavering, betraying himself.
The person on the bed seemed to be having a good dream. Her pink lips parted slightly, and a soft murmur came.
Yan's fingertips curled slightly, and he turned and left.
… …
Sang Luo woke up, and the sky outside the window was still dimly lit.
She couldn't sleep anyway, so she got out of bed and washed up in her inner clothes.
The厢房 where she lived was next to Yan's room. When she came back, she accidentally saw a bright red… it seemed to be clothes, on the table in his room. She curiously walked over to take a look, and it really was clothes.
Yan wasn't in the room and had already gone out, not knowing what he was doing.
She picked up the clothes to look at them. It was a gorgeous red dress, a style worn by females.
She was the only woman here.
It should be the clothes Yan prepared for her, and the size seemed to fit quite well.
Sang Luo took the clothes back to her room. After putting them on, she realized that although the clothes looked bright and beautiful, the material felt a bit old, not like new clothes.
She had just changed her clothes and went out when she ran into Yan coming back.
"Oh, you're back…"
Sang Luo was about to ask him what he had been doing, but she found that his expression was a little off, and her voice suddenly stopped.
Yan stood in the courtyard, staring blankly at the fiery and beautiful female in front of him.
He was like a piece of wood nailed to the ground, forgetting how to move, forgetting how to breathe… His Adam's apple rolled, he stretched out his hand, but his fingertips trembled slightly.
Sang Luo thought he was stunned by her beauty, stepped forward and smiled charmingly, "Am I beautiful?"
"…Very beautiful."
He cupped her face in his hands, saying affectionately.
With gentle affection, and a hint of sadness.
Sang Luo met his affectionate gaze, her heart beating faster, her mind blank for a moment, losing her ability to think, and failing to catch that trace of strangeness in time.
Yan lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Sang Luo's eyes widened, forgetting to breathe!
In the next moment, she was carried by Yan to the bed in the bedroom.
His kiss was passionate and gentle, an explosion of too much loneliness, clumsy and without any method, only knowing how to relentlessly conquer and plunder, seeking everything… Just like last time, Sang Luo was kissed by him until she could barely breathe, her face flushed, with more indescribable shyness, her earlobes were very red and hot.
Slowly, Sang Luo's breathing also became heavy, and a certain instinctive desire arose from the deepest part of her body!
Her soft arms wrapped around the man's shoulders, her fingers gently stroking his broad and solid back, further stimulating him to become even more frantic.
After an unknown amount of time, Yan finally let go of Sang Luo.
He looked down at her charming and amorous face, the coldness in his fox eyes completely dissipated, replaced by deep desire!
"The Fox Clan will only have one mate in their lifetime," he suddenly said, his voice still panting slightly.
