Chapter 1078,
Just after the several guards stopped Yang Kai with smiles on their faces and were about to ask him to forgive them for carrying out their responsibilities, Xue Yue’s pleasant voice sounded off, “Let him in!”
Upon hearing this, the guards stepped aside, breathing deep sighs of relief, throwing out silent looks of encouragement as they did so .
Yang Kai was disinclined to deal with them, strode forward, pushed open the door with a cold look on his face, and walked inside .
There was no change in the room, everything was the same as it was the last time he visited . Xue Yue on the other hand somehow seemed worse for wear, her expression a mixture of sadness and gloom . She didn’t avoid Yang Kai’s angry eyes, nipping her lip lightly as she stared back at him, “Sit down, let’s talk . ”
Seeing her appearance, Yang Kai had nowhere to vent his anger .
Women were truly unfair!
Obviously, her strength was far higher than his own, and if it came down to a fight he would definitely not be her opponent . She could punch him into submission at will, yet at this moment, she could rely solely on her expression to create the illusion of weakness .
Like the Heavens themselves had wronged her …
Yang Kai picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup, took a sip gently, then opened his mouth to say something, but before he could utter a word, Xue Yue’s jade finger landed on his lips .
Her fingers were icy cold, but there was still a faint fragrance on its tip .
“Don’t say anything, let me show you something first,” Xue Yue said lightly, with a softer tone than ever before .
“What?” Yang Kai immediately became vigilant, sweeping his eyes up and down Xue Yue before saying, “If it’s your body, there’s no need, every part of it has already been imprinted into my head, I can perfectly picture it even with my eyes closed . ”
“A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory!” Xue Yue became ashamed and angry, “Do you think I’m the kind of woman who’d try to seduce a man with my body?”
“Then what do you want me to see?” Yang Kai ignored her question and asked .
Xue Yue glared angrily before pushing a sheet of paper over to him .
Yang Kai accepted the piece of paper, sipped his tea lightly and began browsing its content .
After a while, a strange expression appeared on his face and he grinned, “Xue Yue, these conditions are a bit too good, aren’t they? Just by becoming your guard, I’ll be paid a hundred thousand High-Rank Saint Crystals every year and obtain a five hundred kilometre radius domain?”
“Not really, my guards all obtain certain benefits, but everyone’s treatment is different,” Xue Yue took the teacup of tea in front of her and calmly took a sip, putting on a calm appearing, but the slight trembling of her hands betrayed her inner nervousness .
If before, the warm feelings she had for Yang Kai, and even the intimacy and affection she felt for him, had only been a result of the effects of the Soul Chains . However, right now she could say for certain that even without the bindings of the Soul Chains, those feelings wouldn’t completely disappear as they had taken root in her soul .
When forced actions and feelings became natural habits, they weren’t easy to change anymore .
What’s more, he had peered into her Knowledge Sea, and all of her secrets had been exposed, making her feel shyer and more embarrassed than if she was standing in front of him naked, allowing him to examine her .
Xue Yue sincerely hoped that Yang Kai would remain with her, even though she knew he couldn’t wait to get away from her .
While pretending to drink her tea, she quietly watched Yang Kai’s reaction, wanting to see if he showed any interest at all .
However, to her disappointment, Yang Kai showed no trace of temptation and only seemed to be curiously examining the different articles and clauses in the document .
“I’ll have twenty beautiful maids to serve me?” Yang Kai glanced up at Xue Yue with a raised brow, “Aren’t I just a guard? Am I supposed to have beautiful maids?”
“What’s so strange about it? An average person’s guard is naturally just a subordinate and not entitled to have such luxurious, but could my, Xue Yue’s, guards possibly not have such qualifications?” Xue Yue smiled deviously as she saw a trace of anticipation finally appear in Yang Kai’s eyes, quickly adding some embellishments, “I can choose the best women for you . You may not know this but my Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce also operates a slave business . Many big and small families that go bankrupt or fall into ruin will have their Young Ladies bought up by the chamber of commerce to later be sold . Each of these women have good education and their aptitudes and strength aren’t bad either . As far as I know, the strongest ones have reached the Saint King Realm . They’re nothing less than precious treasures!”
While she was colourfully describing these women to Yang Kai, she was silently cursing him out in her heart, she had offered him so many favorable conditions yet besides this one, he had treated them all indifferently . Xue Yue couldn’t help feeling the urge to reach out and choke him .
[Seems like he’s a man after all…]
Xue Yue sighed helplessly .
“Very good, very good!” Yang Kai nodded strongly a few times, he was truly quite interested in having some beautiful maids serving him . When he was back on Tong Xuan Realm, there were too many acquaintances around, and he didn’t dare act sloppily, but now that he had arrived in the Star Field all alone, such concerns didn’t exist anymore .
On top of that, since he took that last step with Little Senior Sister, Yang Kai had found that his mentality towards the happenings between men and women had changed greatly . At least, he no longer repelled the idea of having some fun here and there .
Back when he was staying in Shen Tu’s palace, his freewheeling activities had provided him with much food for thought .
“You think so too?” Xue Yue still maintained a smile on her face as she secretly ground her teeth before softly coaxing, “If you agree, then just leave your mark on the contract and from now on you’ll be my person and receive my shelter . From now on, if anyone dares to bar your way or offend you, you need only report my name, you’ll be able to walk sideways* in the Star Field if you so please . ”
