It was after a long while that Qing Ye Li’s eyes narrowed. His voice low and magnetic as always, and it carried a subtle hint of feelings, he then said softly: “You will not die.”

[If such a day were to come around, no matter what it costs him, he will not allow Qing Yu to die before his eyes.]

Seeing the grave and serious look on his face, like they would be parted between life and death the very next moment, Qing Yu blinked her eyes a couple of times before stuffing something straight into his mouth and asked: “Is it nice?”

Qing Ye Li’s cold and noble face exhibited a rare instance of helplessness before unconsciously chewing on it. It was soft and chewy in his mouth with a refreshing fragrance. He nodded his head slightly and replied. “It’s good.”

“Have more if you like it. The chefs here are in no way inferior to the ones outside, and you are also too thin.” Qing Yu said smilingly, before she picked up more food to place onto her bowl, which caused him to fall into a daze. She then said urgingly: “Go on, eat!”

The man who would never refuse any request that Qing Yu made then went silent after hearing what she said, before lowering his head to eat his food.

Everyone was dumbfounded. “..... ! ! !”

[She was able to change the topic so easily? ?]

[What’s more, when he is before Qing Yu, the Duke of Vast Seas..... is actually..... so docile? !]

[To think that that cold and merciless man who killed people without blinking an eye would have such a side to him.]

[Just thinking about that and it cannot be anymore terrifying.]

She had probably been so shocked by the scene she saw that Mu Lao did not ask any more questions but to start eating quietly. Mu Lai was afraid that the answers would tell her things that she should not know and that they would give her nightmares.

Ming Yi Yi had been silent throughout it all, where not a single sound was heard from her. She had merely looked at Qing Ye Li in puzzlement with a measuring gaze and creased up her brows like she wanted to say something, but decided against it in the end.

— Cloud Heaven —

— Dark Lands —

Luo Jun Yao had changed into a dark purple robe and was just about to go out when a lean figure the colour of the moon appeared before him that said to him softly: “You cannot leave now.”

“What? It hasn’t been that long that I have been away from here and all of you are going to control where I want to go now?” Though Luo Jun Yao raised an eyebrow with an indiscernible smile on his face, there wasn’t the slightest trace of mirth in his captivating violet eyes.

His countenance attractive and handsome, with a pair of blood red eyes, that man standing before his Lord was none other than Little Monster.

The only other person in Cloud Heaven who possessed strange coloured eyes, and one of the very few people who dared to look straight into Lou Jun Yao’s devilish eyes. It was said since ancient times that people born with strange coloured eyes were extraordinary. This was the case for Lou Jun Yao, and it was the same for Little Monster.

Looking into the man’s eyes that had a displeased glint in them, Little Monster’s face was calm. “You were wounded. At least wait till the scent of blood on you has fully dispersed before you go out, otherwise you might attract the attention of those detestable things.”

“Tsk. Those things?” Lou Jun Yao clicked his tongue, and gave a scornful laugh.

Little Monster’s gaze turned sharp. “You are in such a hurry to leave. Is it because of that little lass?”
