Chapter 225 Dancing Solo Under the Moon
Chapter 225 Dancing Solo Under the Moon
The lights gradually dimmed, and this lively dinner finally came to an end.
Lin Wanxi stood beside Xue Ji, her eyes closely following Lin Chuan's figure, her eyes full of attachment and reluctance.
Here, Bai Zhi held Lin Chuan's hand, and the two of them slowly walked towards the courtyard.
The moonlight poured down like water, without reservation, covering the entire pavilion with a layer of silver gauze.
The late autumn wind, with a hint of coolness, gently brushed across Lin Chuan's face, making him a little more sober.
"How was my last dance?"
Bai Zhi took Lin Chuan to the pavilion and gently led him to sit down, as if she had mentioned it casually.
She turned her face slightly, the moonlight outlining her delicate features. There was a gleam in her eyes as she stared at Lin Chuan without blinking, waiting for his answer.
"Very beautiful."
Lin Chuan looked up at Bai Zhi, his eyes clear and his tone full of genuine sincerity.
"that's it?"
Bai Zhi leaned forward slightly, her eyes fixed on Lin Chuan, as if she wanted to dig more answers out of his eyes.
"..."
Lin Chuan gently stroked his palm and instantly understood what Bai Zhi was thinking.
He opened his lips slightly, and his gentle voice echoed in the quiet night:
"It seems like the moon is covered by light clouds, and it flutters like the snow covered by the flowing wind."
Hearing such a wonderful description, Bai Zhi's eyes lit up instantly, and a blush quietly climbed up her cheeks. She lowered her head slightly, trying to hide her inner joy and shyness.
"That's more like it. Since my husband likes it, I will dance for you one more time before I leave."
"Go? Where are you going?"
Lin Chuan's heart tightened, and he raised his hand slightly, subconsciously wanting to grab Bai Zhi's sleeve.
Bai Zhi walked lightly to the center of the pond, her white skirt like a flowing silver thread in the moonlight. She looked up at the bright moon and said softly:
"Of course, we're going back to Baiyun Holy Land. We've been out for so long, and we'll be busy when we get back. Besides, Xu Hanyi will be back soon."
As she spoke, she had already started dancing, moving gracefully with the breeze.
This dance is exactly the same as the one performed in Xueji Palace, but the style is completely different.
Xue Ji's dance is like a red rose blooming in spring, charming, enchanting and captivating; while Bai Zhi's dance is like a gurgling stream in the mountains, and like a spring breeze blowing on the face, full of tenderness and affection.
Every look of hers and every turn of hers seemed to be expressing thousands of attachments and emotions.
Whether it was Bai Zhi's captivating dance moves or the residual alcohol from the dinner, Lin Chuan's consciousness became increasingly hazy. At this moment, he felt that everything before him was like a dream, and he was completely stunned.
When a cool breeze blew by, Lin Chuan shuddered suddenly, and finally came back to his senses as if waking from a dream. He subconsciously looked around, but found that Bai Zhi was no longer in the center of the pool.
Only the ripples on the surface of the pond seemed to be telling us that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.
"Baiyun Holy Land..."
"I'll be there."
Lin Chuan murmured softly, his voice was light but revealed his unquestionable determination.
"Where is Chuan'er going?"
A clear and cool voice, like a mountain stream, slowly drifted into Lin Chuan's ears.
"..."
"Of course I'm going to look for Master. He hasn't been home for so long, I miss him so much."
Lin Chuan's mouth corners rose slightly, and he threw himself into the arms of the beauty behind him without hesitation.
"I've only been away for less than a day, do you think so?"
Xu Hanyi complained, a faint blush on her fair cheeks, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose, and her eyes were full of happiness and pampering.
"One day without seeing you is like three autumns."
Lin Chuan hugged Xu Hanyi tightly and rubbed his head against her arms.
"Chuan'er's words may be used to coax those young girls who are not familiar with the world, but they are useless to me as a teacher."
Xu Hanyi glanced at Lin Chuan with pretended disgust, but there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Well, then I'll go and trick those young girls who are new to the world."
Lin Chuan pretended to leave, but his eyes were full of mischief.
"Go ahead. I'd also like to get to know those young people around you who are still inexperienced..."
"Little girl."
Xu Hanyi raised the corners of his lips slightly and spoke word by word.
"..."
"Little girl, I'm here to trick you."
Lin Chuan suddenly showed a wicked smile on his face. He leaned over slightly and gently lifted Xu Hanyi's chin with his slender fingers.
Xu Hanyi: “???”
"Rebel, return to your room! Today, I will teach you what it means to respect your teacher!"
Xu Hanyi opened her eyes wide, pretending to be furious, pointing her jade finger towards the house.
"I will obey Master's instructions."
Seeing this, Lin Chuan walked into the house obediently without losing the mischievous smile on his face.
Inside the room, the warm yellow candlelight flickered, and the light and shadows swayed in patches on the walls.
Due to the influence of alcohol, after Xu Hanyi's teachings, Lin Chuan's head tilted, his eyelids closed heavily as if filled with lead, his breathing gradually became steady, and he fell into a deep sleep.
"That's how much alcohol you drink."
Xu Hanyi frowned, muttered softly, then stretched out her slender arms and hugged him tightly in her arms.
in dreams,
Lin Chuan leaned in Qingshu's arms, with his left arm around Xu Hanyi and his right arm around Jiang Wanying, while Bai Zhi danced gracefully in front of him.
"Chuan'er, after drinking this cup, we will all be one family."
Xu Hanyi handed over a glass of fine wine. The wine in the glass was shining with a crystal luster and exuding an alluring aroma.
Lin Chuan's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a satisfied smile. He took a small sip, and the mellow aroma of the wine instantly spread in his mouth, making him intoxicated.
Outside the dream,
"Traitor...traitor, how come you are such a grown-up but still act like a child..."
Xu Hanyi frowned tightly, her eyebrows almost twisted into a knot, and her face was full of shame and anger.
Her gaze fell on Lin Chuan's sleeping face, and there was both anger and a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
……
Monster clan.
A hunched attendant hurried into the hall and half-knelt on the ground with a plop. His body trembled slightly with awe, his face filled with reverence as he reported loudly, "Master Demon King, Catwoman is not dead and is on her way back."
"..."
"Then why did Xu Hanyi let one back?" Ye Wutan gently stroked the armrest of the throne, thinking to himself.
After a brief silence, a fierce look flashed in Ye Wutian's eyes, and he spat out a few words without hesitation:
"Dispose of it secretly."
"Yes!"
The attendant immediately agreed, but did not stand up, still maintaining a half-kneeling posture.
"What else?"
Ye Wutan's voice was cold and echoed in the empty hall.
"The Horse King's death has caused great dissatisfaction among his clan. They wish to seek an explanation from you, Lord Demon King.
After saying that, the servant paused for a moment, secretly raised his eyes, and observed Ye Wutan's reaction.
"Go on." Ye Wutan spoke again, his face a little gloomy.
"Yes, yes..." the attendant responded hurriedly, "Snake Jiu is suspected of having an affair with the Pig King, and the Pig King's family is now showing signs of being swallowed up by the Snake Clan."
"Hmph!" Ye Wutan snorted angrily, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
The attendant paused, then gritted his teeth and continued reporting, "It has been verified that the news of Catwoman's rebellion was deliberately spread by Shejiu. This is the list of members who spread the news."
While presenting the list, the attendant carefully reported to Ye Wutan some recent events that had occurred in the various demon families.
"..."
A dead silence spread throughout the hall. The air seemed to be frozen, making it hard to breathe.
"The Horse King was brutally murdered by Xu Hanyi and died in the line of duty. I grant him 100,000 spirit stones. The family can nominate one person to cultivate to the Tribulation Realm. I will bear the resources for that person to cultivate to the Tribulation Realm."
"Also, Catwoman, don't move for now. When she comes back, have her come see me."
After a long time, Ye Wutan slowly opened his mouth and gave instructions to his servants.
After the attendants left, he slowly stood up and walked towards the bedroom.
"Snake Jiu, I want to see how big your snake gall is."
