Chapter 725: Quick, hide! The Qiankun Cloak does it again!!_1

Luo Yu was now on edge, with all his brain cells occupied by pondering over what Tang Yuehua intended to do.

That naturally caused him to overlook the initially tense, then gradually soothing gaze of Bai Chenxiang behind him.

There was a moment of silence.

At this time, Tang Chen apologized:

"I'm sorry, Sect Master. It was Tang Chen's negligence. I didn't investigate the circumstances here thoroughly."

"I shall take my granddaughter back for proper instruction immediately."

"No way!"

Luo Yu's gaze sharpened, joking.

Joking aside, playing aside,

nobody, not even her own grandfather, is allowed to bully his woman.

"Huh?"

Tang Chen was thoroughly confused on the spot.

Wasn't his granddaughter saying that she wasn't familiar with the Sect Master? Yet it seemed as if the Sect Master cared quite a bit for her.

What on earth was going on?

Tang Chen would never have guessed that a young couple could be so playfully extravagant, acting as if they didn't recognize each other upon meeting.

"Grandpa, it's okay."

"The Sect Master is tired; let him rest first."

"Early in the morning, the Sect Master was sleeping in the embrace of a beauty. Our sudden intrusion is bothersome, so we owe the Sect Master an apology."

Tang Chen hastily turned to apologize.

"Sect Master, it was my impudence this early morning that disturbed your peaceful dream. Please forgive me."

Inside, Luo Yu was cursing.

Not a word Tang Yuehua said contained 'jealousy,' but the scent of jealousy was already filling the entire courtyard.

Luo Yu shook his head and stated forcefully:

"No disturbance."

"I, the Sect Master, was cultivating alone until this morning. You didn't disturb me at all."

Tang Chen was puzzled.

Luo Yu had always been cool and indifferent towards him, even disdaining to explain anything.

Why was he explaining things so clearly this time?

So strange.

Hearing Luo Yu's words, Old White Crane relaxed and also felt a bit annoyed with his granddaughter for not being assertive.

When the turtle finds favor in the green beans, why retain such shyness?

Bravely go for it.

Each turnip has its hole; never mind the rest, first plant that turnip in the hole.

Anger at her lack of competitiveness!

As an agile-attack class Old Soul Master, Bai He's strength was exceptional, and his observational ability was top-notch.

He always felt that the relation between Luo Yu and the mature and charming woman wasn't as simple as it appeared on the surface.

There was something fishy.

Definitely something fishy.

He had to subtly hint to his granddaughter to be more aggressive.

If there was mutual affection, once the hole is filled, the turnip won't run away.

When Tang Yuehua heard that Luo Yu had been sleeping alone, the jealousy she felt subsided a little.

Seeing the man's anxious demeanor and not deliberately avoiding recognition of her, her feeling of jealousy decreased further.

"Grandpa, let's go down first and let the Sect Master go back to rest."

"Alright."

After a brief conversation, Luo Yu returned to the inner courtyard, while the high-ranking members of the Hao Tian Clan temporarily settled in the Bai Family Clan's residence.

The Bai Family, being one of the four great families, naturally had plenty of rooms, though they had accumulated a lot of dust and needed cleaning.

These rooms once had occupants, but due to the family's subsequent decline, the people had all but dispersed.

Once everyone from the Hao Tian Clan had their own rooms, Luo Yu called for a meeting.

He simply laid out the strategic plan.

When the family heads of the four great clans, Tang Xiao, and the Elders learned of Luo Yu's ultimate goal to conquer the world and unify Soul Land,

they were all greatly shocked.

The first thought, naturally, was that he must be crazy—how could that possibly be achieved?

No one had had the ability to unify Soul Land for ten thousand years.

But recalling Luo Yu's unfathomably heaven-defying strength, everyone quieted down and got ready to be screws in the machine.

Wherever the organization needed them, they would obediently stay put.

The prospect of participating in the historic event of unifying Soul Land, something that could go down in history, excited everyone.

...

The night deepened.

Dark clouds obscured the twinkling stars, a crescent moon hung high, casting down its cool silver glow.

The Bai Family's small courtyard was peaceful.

Luo Yu sat cross-legged on the bed in his room, chin in hand, pondering over Tang Yuehua's mood at that moment.

As a qualified Aquaman, guessing the thoughts of fish in the sea was a compulsory subject.

But after racking his brains, he still couldn't find the reason.

Could it be that she was really angry with him and wanted to make a clear boundary between them?

Luo Yu shook his head.

That was definitely not possible.

What was their relationship after all?

In a word, Iron!

How Iron?

So Iron it was woven into the marrow of their bones, not a joking matter at all.

During the day, Luo Yu had also tried to find Tang Yuehua alone to talk, but that woman always stayed with her family members.

It prevented him from calling her out by herself.

On the other side, Bai Chenxiang had vanished after the morning's events as well, and nobody knew what she was doing, holed up in her own boudoir.

"Hiss—"

"What kind of bad intentions is Little Huahua hiding!" Luo Yu muttered, hand on his cheek.

While he was troubled with a frown, there suddenly came a knock-knock-knock from outside the door.

"Who is it?"

After Luo Yu asked, there was no response from outside.

His eyes suddenly brightened.

In this courtyard, the only two people who dared knock on their door without speaking were...

He flashed to the door in an instant and opened it.

Luo Yu's eyes lit up.

He nearly had a nosebleed gush forth.

It wasn't that his self-control wasn't strong; it was just that in the dead of night, the sight of a mature beauty standing at the door dressed in an explosive black tube top, revealing a slim and pale waist, was a bit too much to take in.

Her fair shoulders were draped in black gauze, and through the semi-transparent and hazy veil, her fiery figure with its surging curves was somewhat discernible.

A pair of slender legs encased in thin, flesh-colored stockings, her beautiful feet perched within crystal high-heels of a towering water platform.

The slim heels clicked against the ground.

Luo Yu took a deep breath.

Internally he marveled at how incredible she was.

I was just worrying whether you were giving me the cold shoulder, and here you are, dressed so seductively at my door?

"Do you plan to make me stand at the door all this time?"

Tang Yuehua fluttered her beautiful eyes, her under-eye silkworms painted with a soft pink eyeshadow, captivatingly gorgeous and enticing to the extreme.

Luo Yu shook his head.

Pushing aside his lascivious thoughts, he gave a wry smile and said,

"Yuehua, are you angry with me?"

"If you don't let me in now, I will really be angry," Tang Yuehua's rose-tinted lips moved as she spoke, "I came here secretly."

"If you don't let me in, do you want others to see me dressed like this?"

Luo Yu's eyes widened.

How could that be acceptable!

He grabbed Tang Yuehua's tender arm and pulled her inside, then the door slammed shut with a bang.

"Yuehua, about this afternoon, you..."

Luo Yu closed the door and turned around to ask, only to be met with a pair of dazed beautiful eyes.

"Don't talk, kiss me!"

Luo Yu opened his mouth, dumbfounded.

What was going on.

It felt like the script had been switched; this wasn't supposed to happen.

Wasn't she supposed to berate him for being a heartless scoundrel?

Watching Luo Yu's baffled expression, Tang Yuehua giggled, and in an instant it bloomed like a peony, its fragrance spreading all around.

She tiptoed in her high heels, leaning in closer, and took the initiative to kiss him.

A long time later.

Tang Yuehua poked the man's chest, her eyes still seductive.

"You, you man, are just a bit lecherous, makes me so angry I could bite you to death," she murmured.

"But for you to risk your life to help Yuehua and grandpa, keeping your promise, how could Yuehua be so petty as to disappoint you?"

"This afternoon was just about giving you face."

"Having just deceived that young girl, if I had interfered and ruined it, how upset would you have been."
