Chapter 724: Attentive Palace Dressed Beauty!_1

Everyone in the hall knelt down, uniformly submitting to the young man in the center.

Only two beautiful ladies stood out conspicuously, remaining there.

They did not bow their heads in submission.

This naturally caught the attention of both parties.

A subtle glint flickered deep within Tang Yuehua's eyes.

Indeed, she had guessed correctly; these must be new women Brother Yu had entangled with on the outside.

As for Bai Chenxiang, her heart wasn't as clear.

She was somewhat puzzled.

Her refusal to kneel was naturally because she had already confirmed her romantic relationship with Luo Yu, so not kneeling was to be expected.

But what about this woman?

Why didn't she kneel?

Could she be trying to seduce Brother Yu?

Bai Chenxiang scrutinized Tang Yuehua across from her, her gaze gradually becoming more solemn.

This...

This aura was unmistakable; it was definitely that of a love rival.

And a formidable one at that.

Just look at that ample bosom; Bai Chenxiang inwardly cursed, how much good nourishment did it take to get such fullness?

It was terrifying.

Bai Chenxiang glanced down at her own modest endowments, her lips slightly pursing.

Then, looking at the other's slender waist and perky rear, Bai Chenxiang's pout grew even more pronounced.

This woman was just too sultry.

Men would probably prefer someone mature like her, rather than a young one like myself.

Suddenly, Bai Chenxiang felt a wave of self-doubt.

However, she quickly regained her composure.

Being young had its own advantages; she wasn't necessarily going to lose to the other woman.

And most importantly, I was here first.

As long as I don't give this woman any opportunity, she won't have a chance to flirt with Brother Yu.

Bai Chenxiang bit her lip, her eyes shining with determination.

Feeling that her outfit and makeup today were too hastily put together, if she had known such a formidable rival would come,

She would have chosen her clothes and studied her makeup at least half a day in advance.

The two women exchanged glances, and the always perceptive Luo Yu naturally noticed right away.

The corners of his mouth twitched.

With a sense of grievance, he looked at the people kneeling down.

No way.

What on earth were you all kneeling for? Now look what happened.

Big trouble is imminent.

He hastily spoke up:

"Everyone, rise."

"On such an early morning, to be kneeling here, what would people think?"

"We obey the Sect Master's command!"

Tang Xiao shouted loudly and then stood up respectfully, still stooped over.

Tang Chen alongside him looked on with a face void of expression.

Well, well.

There's my good grandson.

Capable of bending and stretching.

Looking at his fawning face now, it's truly hard to tell who he takes after.

After everyone stood up, nobody dared to speak first.

Even though Luo Yu's face was calm and not very stern, he still exerted an incredible pressure on everyone.

They didn't even dare to look him in the eye.

Luo Yu noticed all of this.

Smiling, he waved his hand.

"Alright, everyone can relax, no need to be so formal."

"Yes... yes," the third elder stuttered.

Tang Xiao grinned, "Sect Master, we're pretty relaxed, not nervous at all."

Beside him, Tang Chen just chuckled.

No way, if you're not nervous, why are your three legs shaking?

At this moment, Luo Yu was somewhat in a predicament.

Logically, he should go over and acknowledge Tang Yuehua, but the problem was,

After the acknowledgment, then what? Engage in an affectionate rendezvous?

And Bai Chenxiang would be watching right beside him.

Damn.

Wouldn't that turn into a catastrophic Shura Field?

One must know that until now, Bai Chenxiang still thought he was a steel-straight innocent man, completely unrelated to the Aquaman type.

This isn't going to ruin my reputation, is it?

Not good.

Just as Luo Yu found himself in a tight spot, unable to dismount the tiger, Tang Chen stepped forward.

"Sect Master, I heard you and my granddaughter are old acquaintances?"

"Hiss—"

Luo Yu's teeth clattered, his expression resembling someone who was constipated.

He almost wished he could have slain the old man with one stroke of his sword just then.

Why bring up the most inconvenient topic possible?

However, it had come to this point, and even if it was a Shura Field, he had to charge in headfirst.

Otherwise, if he were to reject Tang Yuehua now by saying they don't know each other, that would really be the end of it.

How heartbreaking would it be for a woman?

Luo Yu took a deep breath and comforted himself.

It's nothing, just a small scene, no panic!

Having faced the Shura Field of double digits beauties, how could I fall here?

"Yes... we do kno—"

Before Luo Yu could finish his grudging admission, he heard the sound of high heels clacking on the floor.

Tang Yuehua gracefully entered, her dress swirling around her, revealing glimpses of her long, fair legs.

The beauty of the scene was overwhelming.

Yet, none of the others dared to take a second look.

After all, having heard Tang Chen mention this woman's connection to Luo Yu, who would dare to cross the line and not court death;

they certainly weren't looking for a longer life.

"Grandfather, you are mistaken, how could I be old acquaintances with such an imposing figure as the Sect Master?"

Tang Yuehua's beautiful face remained calm.

"Ah?"

Tang Chen was confused.

Wasn't it you who said this guy came to your rescue specifically for you?

Wasn't it you who claimed this man was your own?

Why deny it now?

Were you just boasting to your grandfather earlier?

Now with the Sect Master present, are you revealing your true colors?

Tang Chen plunged into deep self-doubt.

If that wasn't the case, why would Tang Yuehua claim to be not well-acquainted?

It made no sense.

If Luo Yu knew what Tang Chen was thinking, he could probably only comment with one sentence.

You can't see the obvious.

There's a reason you are single; no wonder you can never win over the goddess you adore.

Luo Yu, feeling a guilty conscience as he caught Tang Yuehua's deep gaze, realized something.

She must have seen through the trickery between him and Bai Chenxiang and was angry!

What kind of woman was his Yuehua?

Though her strength was weak, she had the utmost sophistication in human relations; being the charming and resourceful master of Yuexuan was not a joke.

Luo Yu's Aquaman instinct told him that it would be better to initiate the Asura Field right now than to apologize later.

Once a woman's heart is wounded, it's much harder to mend.

This was definitely not the time to pretend he didn't recognize her!

"Yuehua, how could we not know each other," Luo Yu emphatically denied.

He had prepared himself to face a Shura Field, but Tang Yuehua's expression instantly turned into one of genuine fear and vulnerability.

She bowed her delicate body.

"How could a humble girl like myself claim acquaintance with the Sect Master?"

"You merely visited Yuexuan once before, and I hosted you, that's all. I wouldn't dare claim an inappropriate connection."

Luo Yu's mouth twitched, wondering which act Yuehua was putting on now.

Host me??

And how exactly were you hosting?

Over meat?

At these words, Tang Chen was deeply disappointed.

To think his own granddaughter deceived him.

All excitement was for naught.

He had hoped to gain status through his granddaughter, yet it all turned out to be an illusion.

Tang Chen wasn't really angry; he used all his emotions to feel disappointed instead.

Bai Chenxiang, who was standing aside, initially had her heart in her throat when she heard Tang Yuehua and Luo Yu were old acquaintances, with her Beautiful Eyes becoming sharper.

But hearing this explanation from Tang Yuehua, she instantly relaxed, and the sharpness in her eyes softened.

So she had misunderstood Brother Yu after all.

Indeed, how could Brother Yu, such a straightforward guy who was clumsy even in pursuing her, go flirt with such a mature beauty?
