The General's Genius Daughter
chapter-255-30041322

The most important thing for Yun Shimo now was to practice first. He would talk about that later tonight.

Sitting on one side, Huangfu Xuan watched Tianci play with the Demon Chicken. This chicken spirit was lovely. Moreover, it understood the human language and was able to dance. As a result, Tianci loved it so much.

Huangfu Xuan suddenly thought it would be a good idea to give it to Tianci because Hua Qiyue didn’t like it. If he gave her the chicken, it would only be a meal.

But if he gave it to Tianci, it would stay with him for a long time. When Hua Qiyue saw it, she could think of him from time to time!

“Quick! Jump up and get the fruit for me!” Tianci cried, pointing to the fruit on the tree.

The Demon Chicken immediately spread its wings and pecked at the tree. Sure enough, it really took a piece of red fruit down.

Tianci was so happy that he hugged the chicken and laughed. “Hahaha… Blacky, you are well-behaved and awesome, for you can actually pick fruit for me. Haha!”

Huangfu Xuan’s mood got a little bit better as he listened to Tianci’s laughter.

“Tianci, do you like this Demon Chicken very much?” Huangfu Xuan asked, sitting down and smiling.

Tianci made a face at Huangfu Xuan and replied, “Of course, Brother Huangfu. You’ll call it Blacky from now on. The name Demon Chicken is not pleasing to the ear. Wouldn’t everyone want to eat it if it was recognized as a chicken outside?”

Huangfu Xuan chuckled again at the little boy’s lovely words. He stroked Tianci’s hair and found a big black insect on the top of his head.

“Man-Hunting Insect?”

Huangfu Xuan had seen it several times, but it was the first time he had observed it so closely.

“Yes, hehe. The Man-Hunting Insect is pretty good, and it’s also my spiritual pet.” Tianci laughed and hurriedly took several pieces of Ginseng with Nine Souls out from his parcel and threw them to the Demon Chicken. “Blacky, here you are.”

When the Man-Hunting Insect saw that, its eyes glowed green.

After all, it had benefited from this item, so how could it not be tempted?

“Hey, master, how could you be so biased? Why did you only give it to him?”

Huangfu Xuan was very surprised. It turned out that Tianci had a talking spiritual pet, which had never been seen before.

Tianci smiled and took two more out from the parcel. “Here you are and eat slowly. Although we have many of them, I must ask my mom to give them to me!”

Tianci’s words shocked the Demon Chicken and the Man-Hunting Insect. This kind of spiritual herb had never been seen between heaven and earth. Once taken, they would be several times stronger than before.

After all, for these small spiritual pets, the Ginseng with Nine Souls was a rare divine herb.

“Therefore, you should always be loyal to me so that I can provide more Ginseng with Nine Souls for you!”

The little boy had long learned to please others. This method applied equally well to spiritual pets.

The two spiritual pets immediately said that they would stay by Tianci’s side even if the heaven rent asunder and the earth cracked. Moreover, they would enjoy blessings and endure misfortune together.

Huangfu Xuan watched Tianci play with the Demon Chicken and then with the Man-Hunting Insect. Tianci’s innocence suddenly enlightened him.

At night.

Princess Qianyang was doing needlework in the cave. Actually, she was not very good at needlework, but it was the easiest thing to learn to kill time.

Princess Qianyang was not aimed at growing strong. For her, to get Yun Shimo’s heart was the most important. So she was determined to learn well all that women could learn.

Since she grew up in Heaven Sect, she was not proficient in needlework, zither, Go, calligraphy, or painting. After all, Heaven Sect only focused on Qi Art, not something that was unpractical for people in Martial World.

“Is it true that my husband and Hua Qiyue have an affair? Yesterday, he was so good to me that he cooked something I liked. Is it just a cover?”

Princess Qianyang’s heart was troubled again at this thought. She put down her half-embroidered handkerchief, her heart heavy.

She hesitated, but eventually got up and walked outside.

Her specialty in Heaven Sect was not Qi Art but tracking.

She succeeded in following Yun Shimo as he was out.

Bathed in the moonlight, Yun Shimo walked toward the log cabin where Hua Qiyue lived. But when he got there, he did not see Hua Qiyue and Tianci. His heart sank.

He had heard that Hua Qiyue and Tianci had all gone into the green jade gourd to practice, and now it seemed that was true.

Yun Shimo stayed calmly in the room, waiting for her to appear. Xuanji was sent away by him with tricks. Moreover, Ji Feng and others would not guard Hua Qiyue as Xuanji did.

Because they all knew that they simply could not stop Yun Shimo.

What was more, it was time to put an end to the bad blood between Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo.

Princess Qianyang, however, stood behind the old tree not far away and watched the situation on this side quietly.

It was one hour before Hua Qiyue and Tianci flashed out of a ball of white light. Hua Qiyue held the gourd in her hand and patted Tianci’s little head, saying, “Tianci, you must be exhausted after one day of practice. Hurry to sleep.”

Tianci rubbed his fat little face against Hua Qiyue’s arm and said, “Alright, mom. I am going to sleep. Do you sleep?”

Hua Qiyue nodded. After tucking Tianci in, she slept without removing her clothes.

She knew someone was staring at her, but she didn’t want to talk to Yun Shimo.

The lower hem with fragrance appeared at Hua Qiyue’s bedside after Tianci fell asleep.

When Hua Qiyue opened her eyes, her eyelashes were like thin cicada wings, trembling in a beautiful arc.

“Come out with me. You want to know about Xuanji, don’t you?”

Yun Shimo looked at Hua Qiyue. Lying flat on her back, she had charming beauty.

Hua Qiyue had to sit up. She did wonder where Xuanji had been transported to, although it would be too dull for her to worry about him, given his power.

Hua Qiyue followed Yun Shimo out of the log cabin and headed west. That was where she used to practice. Later, she stopped practicing there after being harassed by Yun Shimo.

They walked in tandem to the clearing in the wood.

Not far away, Princess Qianyang ground her teeth out of hatred as she saw all this. Her eyes were like poisoned arrows.

Hua Qiyue stopped and looked up at the bright moon overhead. The moonlight gently shed on her, as if it would only give up after softening her heart.

“Where did the hare transport him to?” Hua Qiyue asked straightforwardly.

Yun Shimo stared at her watery eyes and asked, “Is it Xuanji you care about most now?”

“Yes.” Hua Qiyue didn’t want to deny it. She truly cared about Xuanji most now, because he gave her the chance to come here.

“Qiyue, the misunderstanding between us is too deep. Don’t imagine me as a heartless person.” Yun Shimo saw that Hua Qiyue showed no expression and remained calm, and she no longer looked sad.

Did that mean she probably put it down?

“Don’t say that, Prince Nan. You’re not a heartbreaker. There is nothing between us. Why should you speak to me like that?”

Hua Qiyue toyed with the green jade gourd in her hand. She would not give up this green jade gourd at any cost, because it was her bottom line.

“Qiyue, why are you talking to me like that? I was forced to marry Princess Qianyang. There are a lot of inside stories that you don’t know.” Although Yun Shimo and Hua Qiyue had achieved the great completeness of Round Sun, they still failed to notice Princess Qianyang.

After all, Princess Qianyang learned hidden techniques and tracking methods from childhood. Generally speaking, anyone below the medium level of Holy God could barely perceive her existence.

Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo, however, didn’t know these.

“Inside stories? Your Highness, I suppose they have nothing to do with me?” Hua Qiyue smiled sarcastically. She had no intention of believing Yun Shimo since long ago.

Yun Shimo squeezed his lips and smiled bitterly. “I know I broke your heart by taking Tianci and the green jade gourd away. But… Qiyue, I hope you don’t clash with Princess Qianyang because of some of her aggressive behaviors. She can’t be too emotional.”

Hua Qiyue sat down and leaned against the Bodhi Tree behind her. The moonlight shed on her through the leaves.

“Yun Shimo, I can’t believe you are so cruel that you fed her with Passionless Pill for so many days. But she knew it now. I’m afraid of what will happen next. I hope you can reason things out and not favor her because she is your wife.”

Hua Qiyue said one thing but meant something different.

Everything she said was another topic compared to what Yun Shimo said.

Standing not far away, Princess Qianyang heard the words “Passionless Pill”. Her head went blank as if she was struck by thunder!!

“Passionless Pill?”

“The thing Yun Shimo used to feed me wasn’t Sedative Pill or something, but Passionless Pill?”

Princess Qianyang was by no means stupid. She knew the pill would make people passionless given its name!

No wonder she was so abnormal some time ago. Was it because she took the Passionless Pill?

Her body trembled. She clenched her hands and pinched her long nails into her palms. It hurt so much!

Her heart seemed to be wrung with a thousand swords. Her voice was annihilated in her trembling throat due to the sharp pain.

“Yun Shimo actually fed me with the Passionless Pill!”

“For what he tricked me into marrying him here? When he came to me after the war, he was so eager and affectionate that I really thought he loved me so much. I thought it was just because Hua Qiyue was tough that he didn’t show his love for me before.”

That was why Princess Qianyang followed him away happily. Even if her mother looked at her worriedly, she still followed the man, full of hope and joy.

However, he even fed her with Passionless Pill! Hehe, he did it to make her forget him and not hate him, did he? What a cruel man!

Princess Qianyang slowly came to her senses. Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo were still talking about something in the wood.

“What did you say? Is there really half a Purple Primordial Chaos Bead in Tianci’s body?” Hua Qiyue exclaimed in shock, which made Princess Qianyang take a deep breath. Princess Qianyang intended to go on listening and to keep all her secrets to herself.

“Yes, his Purple Primordial Chaos Bead is too small. The nature of the Chaos Bead is devouring, so…” Yun Shimo paused for a while and then continued, “So Tianci would not suffer from it with Princess Qianyang being here. Because every night, I would forcibly transform the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead inside her body into liquid and make it drip from her palms.”

Princess Qianyang had calmed down. She planned to hear more secrets and then find a way to revenge herself on Hua Qiyue, but she did not expect her anger to soar instantly due to the following words!
