Chapter 49: Jasmine
Chapter 49: Jasmine
In the palace hall, Luo Tian and Yingyue sat side by side.
He was more relaxed now and Yingyue clearly liked his true personality more.
The woman then took out a red apple and a knife.
She didn't peel it, she directly cut it in half and handed one of them to him.
"Let's postpone the talk about dark energy, I wonder what you experienced and found in that mortal world?" She then asked.
Judging by her expression when she asked, she probably felt uncomfortable not knowing the things he had done in this one year.
"Actually I didn't do much, once my personality changed, my interests changed too, the mortal world didn't interest me at all at the time," he replied.
He took a deep breath before continuing, "but, well, something big has happened indeed. I found a big thing there too."
"Oh."
"Look!"
He then waved his hand, immediately after, a red-haired girl with a pair of wings on her back appeared in front of them.
"This?" Yingyue's expression changed slightly as she looked at the girl.
But after that, she looked at him with a pouting mouth.
"What do you mean by this? Do you want to build a harem now? Don't think I will hold back just because she is a little girl."
She looked at the girl, her gaze turning cold.
Even though the girl had always been indifferent, Yingyue's gaze still made her take a step back.
However, she still looked surprised when she saw her face.
Luo Tian finally realized that she had no idea that the girl was a member of the Heavenly Blood Bat clan. She must have thought she was a blood demon girl.
"Wait, Yingyue, it's not what you think." He quickly spoke.
"This girl is a heavenly blood bat, an ancient race already thought to be extinct."
"Heavanly blood bat?" Hearing that name, she finally calmed down.
The way she looked at the girl had also changed. She reached out her hand to grab the girl's hand. The latter tried to resist, but Yingyue's hand movements were too fast for her to dodge.
After that she narrowed her eyes, she seemed to be investigating the girl's body.
A few breaths of time later, she turned her gaze to Luo Tian.
"Tell me how you met this girl?"
Luo Tian nodded, but just as he was about to answer, the girl suddenly spoke.
"Madam, how about we cooperate?" She said in a formal tone.
She lifted her head and looked Yingyue straight in the eye.
"Oh?" Hearing her words, Yingyue showed an interested expression.
Luo Tian, on the other hand, looked at her with an unpleasant expression. This girl almost didn't want to talk to him, but in front of Yingyue, she casually offered to cooperate.
"Girl, are you harboring evil intentions?" he said.
Unfortunately she completely ignored him, she didn't even glance at him.
"Little girl, are you sure of your words?" Yingyue finally spoke.
She narrowed her eyes slightly.
The little girl was basically no different from a fish on a cutting board, in front of a giant like Yingyue, she should have spoken honestly if she didn't want to be tortured.
This time, the girl was able to stand calmly under Yingyue's gaze.
She straightened her posture before replying, "I just hope you keep my existence a secret, protect me, and help me grow in this world. As long as you do it all for me, I will definitely give you things that will definitely satisfy you in the future."
"Oh, what can you give me?" Yingyue asked.
"I don't have any treasures on my body, but there is a reason why I was able to escape. If you believe in me, you can accept my offer."
"Is that so?"
"Little girl, if you want to cooperate, shouldn't you at least say your name first," Luo Tian chimed in.
The girl looked at him and replied, "Didn't I tell you, I don't have a name."
"Aren't you a princess?"
"Huh, what a princess."
"But little girl, why did you choose to cooperate with me?" Yingyue asked again.
She immediately turned her gaze to her before replying, "With a single glance, I can tell that you are a reliable person. If my whereabouts weren't found, I might be able to thrive on my own, but now I know I can't."
"Then what is your purpose in coming here?"
"To get stronger, of course."
"Is that all."
"As long as I become stronger and reach the peak of the world, there are many things I can do."
"But what makes you so confident. You don't seem afraid at all that I'll catch you by force."
"There's nothing I can do if you do that. But believe me, you won't get anything from me if you do that."
"It doesn't seem easy to deal with you. Alright, I'll give you a chance, but I'll keep an eye on you at all times."
"Thank you, madam. I certainly won't let you down." She bowed slightly to salute.
"Since you don't have a name, I'll give you a name. From now on, your name will be Jasmine."
"Jasmine?"
When she heard that, she finally changed her expression.
"Before that old man comes, I will send you to the upper realm and place you in a safe place. But before that, I want to remind you of one thing."
Yingyue's tone sounded serious so Jasmine also put on a serious expression to hear it.
Yingyue grabbed Luo Tian's hand and looked at him before looking at Jasmine again.
"He is my husband, I can restrain myself from others who do not respect him. But since you are already under my protection, I will not let you do that again. Since you're a smart girl, I'm sure you understand what I mean."
Jasmine, "..."
She wore a surprised expression, but she seemed to be well trained to change her attitude quickly.
She quickly nodded and said, "I understand."
She then looked at Luo Tian.
"Please forgive me for my rudeness earlier, sir." She said with a noble bow.
Right after that, Yingyue waved her hand at her. A portal appeared at her side and sucked her body.
She immediately disappeared from there.
Luo Tian couldn't help but be moved by the way Yingyue defended him. But he also felt ashamed that his wife helped him gain respect.
He said, "Yingyue, you don't have to ask any of your subordinates to respect me. It's pointless if their hearts think otherwise."
"Yes, and there's no point in me having great power if I can't help the man I love gain respect," she replied.
She then looked at his and stretched her hand to his face.
