Chapter 276: Zhu Zhuyun's feelings!
(A/n: It's been so long right? sigh… I am not dropping this. I saw many comments and some reviews so um I wrote even though I am quite busy with stuff and my other novel. I wrote the chap hastily so there might be some errors. Bear with it!)
As the moon hung high above them, Xuan Yan, Shui Mei, and Zhu Zhuyun strolled through the lively, illuminated streets of the city enjoying the night date.
Seeing Xuan Yan, the people bowed in respect as they were already informed by the High Priestess that the Holy Emperor was residing on their Island.
Shui Mei held onto Xuan Yan's hand the whole time while Zhu Zhuyun walked behind them. Shui Mei turned her head "Zhuyun, join us…"
"Um, yeah…" She hesitated as she felt like a third wheel on their love date. She moved walking beside Xuan Yan's side.
Zhu Zhuyun discreetly looked at Xuan Yan talking and enjoying with Shui Mei while teasing her. A sigh left her lips and she moved away from them as she felt like she was hindering them.
Zhu Zhuyun cast her eyes upon the vibrant array of shops, with many exquisite accessories meticulously crafted with the products of the sea like sea shells, pearls, and sea stones.
Looking at a big store, she curiously walked toward it and looked at the accessories. The old lady working in the shop greeted her with a warm smile "Young girl, you look so beautiful. Wearing these will make you look even more beautiful… try some."
Zhu Zhuyun smiled gently as she examined the collection before her. Her eyes scanned the various items on display until they came to rest on a stunning white necklace adorned with pearls and a pair of intricately crafted sea shells, beautifully showcased in their own separate box.
"What about this?" Zhu Zhuyun asked pointing at the necklace. "Oh, that is…" the old lady frowned.
"You like that?" Zhu Zhuyun felt a gentle whisper brush against her ears, causing her to turn around in shock to see the familiar face of the handsome man standing next to her. "Yan?" she stammered in surprise.
Seeing Xuan Yan, the old lady quickly kneeled on the floor "Your Highness!" Zhao Tian gave a nod acknowledging her and glanced at Zhu Zhuyun "So, tell me you like that?"
Zhu Zhuyun came out of her surprise, "Yan, what are you doing here? Aren't you with Sister Mei?" Xuan Yan spoke "Leave that aside and tell me, you wanna buy that."
Zhu Zhuyun again glanced at the white necklace and nodded her head "Um, yeah." The old lady hurriedly took the box presenting it to Xuan Yan "Your Highness! You can take it. I don't need any money."
Xuan Yan shook his head "No, state the price. I will pay." After paying the old lady gold soul coins, Xuan Yan took the necklace in his hand "I'll wear it on you."
Zhu Zhuyun timidly nodded her head as she carefully brushed her hair, pulling it back into a sleek ponytail making it easier for Xuan Yan to wear it on her.
Zhu Zhuyun's face lit up with a radiant smile as she admired the necklace adorning her neck. Looking at her smile, Xuan Yan spoke "It looks good on you." Zhu Zhuyun's eyes grew tender and she gave a nod.
"Husband!" At this time, Shui Mei hurriedly walked to him grabbing his arm "Husband, come with me… there is something I want you to buy for me."
"Ok, ok, coming…"
Zhu Zhuyun couldn't help but giggle as she watched Xuan Yan being dragged playfully by Shui Mei. The old lady bowed looking at Zhu Zhuyun "Young lady, I didn't know you were His Highness' women who came with him to the Sea God Island. Forgive me."
Zhu Zhuyun shook her head "Um, no… it's okay." The old lady smiled looking at the necklace on Zhu Zhuyun "It must be nice getting proposed second time by your man huh? I still remember… my Husband proposed his love for me."
Zhu Zhuyun was confused "Proposal, what proposal?" The old lady spoke, "The pair of sea shells in your necklace indicates two souls vowing eternal love in our Sea God Island and if a man gave it to you, it means he proposed you to be his wife… well you are already his wife right?"
Wha-Uh? Zhu Zhuyun's eyes widened in shock, she didn't know that this necklace had a deep meaning like that. She just chose it because it looked kinda cool.
She glimpsed at Xuan Yan and Shui Mei talking with each other in a nearby shop and seeing him a pink blush crept across her cheeks. A flurry of thoughts raced through her mind.
H-H-He proposed to me to be his wife? N-No, he must not have been aware of this meaning and simply bought it because I liked this.
She convinced herself, however, the mere thought of him proposing his love to her made her heart race and she couldn't help but shy in embarrassment thinking about the possibility.
Once more, she stole a quick glimpse at his strikingly attractive face, causing her heart to race uncontrollably within her chest. Being overwhelmed by embarrassment, she hurriedly left the place.
…
Zhu Zhuyun quickly returned to her place on Sea God Island and made her way towards her room. As she was going upstairs, Tang Yuehua who was going downstairs smiled, "Zhiyun!" \
Zhu Zhuyun lifted her head "Sister Yueha!" Tang Yueha's eyes instinctively fell on the white necklace and she asked curiously "The necklace really looks good on you."
A small blush appeared on Zhu Zhuyun's cheeks "T-Thanks! Yan bought it for me." Tang Yueha was surprised "Husband? Maybe I should also ask something like this… hehe."
Hearing this, the blush on Zhu Zhuyun's face deepened. Hm? Tang Yueha frowned seeing this. Maybe… "Come Zhuyun, let's go and meet Sister Yeyue."
"Eh? Why?" Zhu Zhuyun asked but Tang Yueha just pulled her.
…
As Long Yeyue lounged on the comfortable sofa, her eyes briefly darted towards Tang Yueha and Zhu Zhuyun who had arrived to visit her at such an unexpected time. "So? What is the matter."
Tang Yueha smiled "Sister Yeyue, I think Zhuyun is in love with our Husband." Wha- Zhu Zhuyun was dumbfounded hearing this "S-Sister Yueha, when did I say that?" she hurriedly asked.
Tang Yueha tilted her head "I mean, you were blushing looking at the necklace Husband bought for you, so I brought you to the best person for love advice."
Long Yeyue smirked seeing this "So, that's how is it… huh." Zhu Zhuyun hastily spoke to clear the misunderstanding "N-No, it's not like that."
Long Yeyue raised an eyebrow "What? You mean you don't love Husband?" T-That's… Zhu Zhuyun hesitated "Well, he is handsome and he takes good care of his wives and is powerful… so I am a-attracted to him."
Tang Yueha and Long Yeyue exchanged knowing smiles as they watched Zhu Zhuyun's shy demeanor and blushing cheeks. Tang Yueha looked at Long Yeyue "So, Sister Yeyue… what do you say."
Long Yeyue shrugged "What can I say? Husband has to love her too." Tang Yueha squinted her eyes "That's true too."
Zhu Zhuyun looked at them dumbfounded, as they continued the conversation without her. Long Yeyue spoke, "Well the best love advice I can give you is…"
"You should make his dick hard not his life, so he would make your pussy wet not your eyes!" she said with a proud smirk on her face.
What the actual fuck? (ㆆ _ ㆆ) Both Zhu Zhuyun and Tang Yueha looked at Long Yeyue stupefied. Tang Yueha stood up from her seat "As Sister Erlong said, you are really perverted after all. It is my fault for coming to you."
"Come on, Zhuyun let's go back to the mainland to Sister Ah YIn."
Zhu Zhuyn let out a heavy sigh and shook her head in reluctance "No, please… we don't need to have any more conversations about this. He is my sister's husband and I shouldn't harbor feelings for him. This is immoral…" she spoke walking away from that place.
Tang Yueha spoke with a wry laugh "Husband has his mother, his sister, and even his teacher in his harem… Sister Ah Rou and her daughter Xiao Wu. This is not big compared to that."
Long Yeyue frowned "Maybe she is not aware that this is not a serious novel but a silly fanfic, where this immoral stuff is not a big thing"
Tang Yueha gave a nod "Yeah, he is making it hard for the author."
"Yeah, now he has to write even more chapters just because she didn't accept her love no-oops I did a 4th wall break."
Tang Yueha smiled wryly "You did!"
"Don't worry, the author will edit it out."
(A/n: I didn't!)
...
Next day morning-
Bo Saixi glanced at the women standing under the Sea God Mountain 'Where is Little Yan?.'
As she glimpsed at the women, a thing caught her eyes "Zhuyun, the necklace..." Zhu Zhuyun was surprised as Bo Saixi pointed to her "Um yeah this..."
Zhu Zhuqing spoke with a smile "Seems like Yan bought it for her yesterday." she also noticed the necklace as the first thing in the morning and asked her sister about that.
Bo Saixi was surprised "So, he proposed his love to you?" This stunned other women "Proposed his love?" Zhu Zhuqing asked in confusion. Zhu Zhuyun panicked in her heart hearing Zhu Zhuqing's question.
Bo Saixi spoke, "That necklace with a pair of shells indicates eternal love between a man and a woman, and if Yan bought it for her then..."
Zhu Zhuqing frowned her eyebrows and shook her head "No, there must be a misunderstanding... Yan shouldn't have known about this and sister you also don't know about this, right." Zhu Zhuyun gave a subtle nod "U-Um., yeah..."
At this time, Xuan Yan, Ma Xiaotao, and Long Yeyue walked near them. Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xuan Yan and asked "Yan, the necklace on my sister's neck..."
Xuan Yan glimpsed at Zhu Zhuyun "Hm? Yeah, I am the one who bought it for her. You want one too..?" he asked with a smile.
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head "Do you know about the necklace." Xuan Yan was confused "About the necklace? what, does it mean something?"
Bo Saixi spoke, "In our sea God Island, men will give it to women representing their love as a proposal." Xuan Yan was amused "Oh? That's a surprise. But the necklace looks beautiful so it is okay to wear it, I guess."
Zhu Zhuqing chuckled with a shake of her head "Yeah, Is there a rule that it is used only for proposing? Sister chose it because it looked beautiful right?"
Zhu Zhuyun smiled dryly "Y-Yeah,..."
Bo Saixi shook her head "Well, keeping that aside for now, you will be completing the first trial today and if you want you can start th e next trial today itself."
The women gave a firm nod upon hearing this. Bo Saixi discreetly glanced at Xuan Yan "What do you say, rogue?"
Xuan Yan smiled "How about we do my second trial today?" "What?" Bo Saixi was surprised but then a smirk appeared on her lips "I'll beat you to a pulp today."
"You can try!"
...
*clank* *boom* Above the Sea God Island, a blue light and a golden light collided in the sky dispersing the clouds surrounding it. *woosh*
The radiant golden light gradually dissipated faintly as Xuan Yan appeared floating in the sky, his white hair flowing in the air with the Ancient Divine Dragon spear in his hand, a smile playing on his lips.
The blue light faded and Bo saixi emerged, with a golden trident in her hand and a deep frown etching her face.
Xuan Yan spoke "To think that the Poseidon even let you use his divine weapon for this trial... Don't you think this is cheating?"
Bo Saixi's face darkened upon hearing this, she had borrowed her divine power and was even using the Trident but she still couldn't throw hands with this bastard.
Moreover, Xuan Yan has a handicap he can't use his spirit skills. Bo Saixi narrowed her gaze 'Just how powerful he is for Lord Poseidon to limit his spirit skills and even allow me to use the Trident?'
Seeing the playful smile on his lips, Bo Saixi's lips twitched in frustration. "I'll beat you today, rogue!" With a swift movement, her weapon sliced through the air *swish* *boom*
Meanwhile, the women are standing on the Sea God mountain looking at the fight. Xiao Wu spoke "I can't clearly see anything... I can only see blue and golden lights."
Shui Binger spoke in concern "Do you think, Mr.Yan will lose?"
"HUH?" Every woman turned their gaze at her. Shui Binger's body shrieked seeing the intense glare of the woman "I-I am sorry!"
She continued "I-I mean, Senior Bo Saixi took that Divine Trident with her for fight so..."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Long Yeyue "Sister Yeyue, you say... with limitations, who is stronger Yan or Bo Saixi?"
Long Yeyue frowned "It might cause a little trouble if Saixi used the divine weapon."
"But will he lose?"
"Nah, he'd win!"
