The two praised each other, their respect for one another genuine. Elder Gong watched all this with a smile, nodding slightly in satisfaction.
For a time, everyone present was in high spirits, except for Cui Quanyi, who hid in the back and watched all of this. He saw his lineage, from his master to his junior brothers and sisters, surrounding Yun Chuan like stars around the moon. He pursed his lips, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
He turned his head to look in Yan Shuiyi's direction. At this moment, this young prodigy of the Qingyun Sect, who was always surrounded by crowds and treated like a star wherever she went, was now willingly shrinking into a corner and becoming invisible.
She didn't care about this at all. She just raised her head and smiled at Yun Chu'an in the center of the crowd. Her eyes were gentle as water, almost melting. The crystal light in her pupils shone, making Cui Quanyi's heart ache as if it were being pricked by needles.
He lowered his head, concealing his turbulent emotions, and tried to calm himself down.
At least for now, no one knows his true thoughts and his plan, otherwise he would probably have become a real clown by now.
Regardless of Cui Quanyi's thoughts, now that the battle at the front had ended, Yun Chuan and Elder Gong sat down again to continue their discussions and share their insights on thunder techniques. Meanwhile, other Golden Core thunder cultivators would occasionally ask questions.
The group chatted all day, and even after the sun had set below the western horizon, they were still reluctant to part. However, it was getting late, so Yun Chu'an got up to take his leave. Elder Gong, with regret, made an appointment with him to come back the next day to continue exchanging ideas on thunder magic.
After making this agreement, Yan Shui summoned his flying sword, had Yun Chu'an stand behind him, and then chanted incantations and hand seals before speeding off into the distance.
At this moment, seeing the two standing so close together, Elder Gong's eldest disciple, though showing some regret, felt no jealousy.
They're the same age, and both are so outstanding. They're a perfect match, from a completely different world.
At that moment, he completely let go of his obsession with it, and his mind became clear and serene, free from many worries.
At that moment, on the flying sword, Yun Chu'an, seeing that no one was around, put his hands on Yan Shuiyi's small waist, leaned close to her ear, and suddenly whispered, "Fairy, does this Elder Gong... have a spouse or children?"
Yan Shui didn't mind his unruly large hands, and the two had many intimate moments in private. Although this was at the Qingyun Sect, in recent days, she had become more relaxed and bolder, no longer worried about being seen through by others.
Upon hearing this, she looked thoughtful and then said, "Elder Gong... I haven't heard of her having any children, but as for her Daoist partner, uh... there are quite a few rumors."
Yun Chu'an asked, "What is it? Would you mind telling me?"
"Well..." Yan Shuiyi seemed somewhat hesitant to speak, "It's said that, uh... Elder Gong in her youth was a... um... a woman with very rich emotions. She formed Daoist partnerships with several male cultivators, but none of them lasted very long... um..."
She expressed herself so tactfully, her voice sounding somewhat hesitant: "But in short, she should still be single right now, without a partner... Why are you suddenly asking this?"
After saying all that, she suddenly came to her senses and asked softly.
Yun Chu'an looked thoughtful, and after a moment of contemplation, he said, "In my opinion, I'm afraid... this elder is now also a remarkable woman with very rich emotions..."
Yan Shui's expression shifted slightly: "What's wrong?"
Yun Chuan said, "It's nothing, it's just that the way she looked at me just now... made me feel a little uncomfortable."
Chapter 552 Blindfold, Gag Ball, and Toys
Yun Chu'an expressed it in a similarly tactful way. He couldn't very well say that just now, the elder's feelings for him were so good that they had even triggered a system task, which would be quite inappropriate.
Fortunately, Yan Shui understood what he meant. Upon hearing this, her expression immediately became slightly tense: "Oh? Is that so? Then you must be careful..."
As she said this, a sudden pang of jealousy rose in her heart, realizing that with her status, she actually had no right to demand that he not philander.
Yun Chu'an sensed the subtle change in her emotions and quickly opened his arms to hug the girl, saying hurriedly, "Of course, fairy, I'm paying attention. That's why I just asked you about this matter."
"Don't worry, fairy, my heart belongs only to you."
While here.
He didn't say much more about the last sentence, because if he did, all the sweet talk he had said before would have been for nothing.
He offered this comfort, but Yan Shuiyi remained silent, simply continuing to fly forward. She too had her own worries, some related to Yun Chu'an, which she was somewhat ashamed to speak of even to him…
She remained silent, carrying Yun Chu'an, and flew straight to his residence.
……
On Huai Mountain, in the dungeon.
Naked and with her eyes blindfolded by a black cloth, Rong Jieyu was in a completely new position as You Wensi tortured her.
Now, not only are her arms handcuffed and she is hanging in the center of the prison, but even her plump legs are suspended by red ropes.
At that moment, the red ropes hung from the ceiling, one on the left and one on the right, with the ends tied to her ankles, suspending her upwards.
Thus, her two fair and plump thighs were spread wide apart, and her wet, honeyed lips were no longer covered at all, completely exposed.
At this moment, her breasts were clamped with vibrating nipple clamps, her nipples were attached to vibrating bouncing toys, a metal anal plug was inserted into her anus, and even her mouth was stuffed with a red gag with a hollow center, preventing her from speaking, but her saliva was pitifully flowing out incessantly.
The leather straps on both sides of the gag were pressed tightly against her cheeks, securing this erotic device of torture and making her appear even more pitiful.
Rong Jieyu felt like she was going crazy. For the past few days, You Wensi had been tormenting her with these absurd little toys, bringing her intense pleasure repeatedly, but refusing to let her reach orgasm. Each time, she would just touch the edge of orgasm and then fall back down, leaving her with only an indescribable emptiness and loss.
At this moment, she was blindfolded, her vision was blocked, so all her senses were more acute, and the pleasures were amplified. As a result, the loneliness and emptiness that followed were also amplified to an unbearable degree.
However, she couldn't complain about it. Because on the other side, You Wensi was also tormenting herself in the same way.
Opposite Rong Jieyu, You Wensi was also naked, her arms handcuffed and hanging, her eyes covered with a black cloth.
Her ankles were also tied up with red ropes and spread wide apart, so that Rong Jieyu could clearly see the insulting words and tally marks written in black on the inside of her thighs.
Her delicate private garden was completely exposed, and love juice was constantly flowing out of her honey hole. An anal plug was inserted into her anus, leaving only the bottom exposed.
She was also bound to various small toys like these, and her mouth was gagged with the same kind of gag. At this moment, those small toys were vibrating, just like the ones on Rong Jieyu's body, bringing her a continuous stream of pleasure.
All of this was You Wensi's own doing. Before Rong Jieyu completely submitted, she wanted to inflict the same torment on herself and suffer alongside her in the abyss of unfulfilled desires.
"Waaaaah..." Mei is here, Yong is here, Lin is here, is she here...?
"Oooooooo-"
The small toy attached to the sensitive spot was vibrating, and the anal plug inserted into the anus was also trembling, stimulating sensitive points inside and outside their bodies.
However, because of the gags, the two poor women couldn't even make normal moans; they could only whimper strangely, pitifully and lewdly.
Rong Jieyu was about to climax again, her whole body trembling with pleasure. However, at this moment, she had no expectations in her heart. Instead, a kind of fear suddenly surged into her chest, as if gripping her heart, making her afraid and trembling.
No, don't stop, keep vibrating, keep going, keep giving me pleasure—
Her heart cried out, if she had even a moment of freedom, even if it meant rubbing her lower body with her own fingers, she would immediately bring herself to orgasm.
Unfortunately, she couldn't do it, and the next moment, just as she feared, the trembling toy suddenly stopped, and the immense pleasure receded like the tide, replaced by an emptiness that tormented her to the point of madness.
And loneliness.
Two streams of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, wetting the black cloth covering her eyes. This wasn't the first time she had cried in recent days, because apart from the first day when You Wensi teased her with his fingers, she hadn't had an orgasm since.
From then on, every time, she suffered the same torment of unfulfilled desires.
"Waaah...waaah..." With difficulty, Rong Jieyu managed to utter words like "make me climax," but unfortunately, the sounds were muffled and murky. Unless one fully understood her true needs at that moment, it was impossible to comprehend what she meant.
Across from her, You Wensi, equally empty and lonely, was panting heavily. She had recovered somewhat and looked at her senior sister with gentle eyes, wanting to say something more.
However, at that very moment, a message suddenly reached her ears, making her eyes light up.
Immediately, she silently recited a spell and mobilized her spiritual power. As a result, the black cloth that had been covering her eyes, the gag that had been stuffed in her mouth, and the red rope that had been wrapped around her ankles all automatically loosened, allowing her feet to touch the floor.
She stood up straight, and her hands automatically slipped out of the handcuffs, regaining her freedom.
Immediately, the woman stepped forward, removing the vibrating toys clinging to her body, and then walked up to Rong Jieyu, removing the small toys from her breasts and between her legs, as well as taking out her blindfold and gag.
Rong Jieyu regained her sight, drool still lingering at the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with grievance. She remained silent until You Wensi said, "Someone's coming, Senior Sister, I have to go out."
"I hope that during this time you can figure out for yourself what I'm doing all this for."
As she spoke, she reached out and slowly pulled the anal plug out of Rong Jieyu's anus. As the enormous thing rotated and gradually left her anus, the woman couldn't help but groan again.
You Wensi then lowered her legs, which had been suspended, before turning around and leaving.
So Rong Jieyu returned to her original state, hanging in the center of the cell, head down and silent, lost in thought.
For a moment, she couldn't help but ask herself from the bottom of her heart: was she really just asking for trouble by enduring all this torment?
After all, Yun Chu'an is still young, and his progress is rapid, while he himself has almost no hope of turning the tables...
She remained silent, tormented by emptiness and loneliness. She couldn't help but begin to ponder whether the other option wasn't so unacceptable after all…
Leaving aside her change of mindset, on the other hand, You Wensi rushed out, hastily putting on her clothes as she went.
A distinguished guest had arrived, and Zhu Yunqing was unable to handle him alone. She could not afford to delay any longer, so for a moment she didn't even have the mind to pull the anal plug out of her anus, nor did she have the mind to carefully put on her bra, panties, and stockings.
She simply put on a dark red dress, which revealed her shoulders and back, but the neckline was close to her skin, revealing her collarbone, while her breasts were completely covered. Not to mention cleavage, not even a bit of her breast flesh was exposed.
Once the corset was fastened, the long skirt covered her below the knees, completely concealing her ample bosom.
After she put on her sandals and tied her hair up with a hairpin, even though she wasn't wearing any underwear and was completely naked, she still looked like a dignified, elegant, and noble lady.
Having done all this, she had come outside. The blush on her face from unfulfilled desire had mostly faded, and her cheeks were even covered with a touch of frost, making her look more like a dignified matriarch of the family.
She came out from the backyard and went straight to the main hall, where she saw Zhu Yunqing, with her hair up, wearing a fitted blue long gown and tear-stained makeup, making tea for a distinguished guest.
The distinguished guest was also a woman, who appeared to be dressed quite simply. However, upon closer inspection, it could be seen that the white dress she wore was made of precious silkworm silk, and the workmanship was clearly the work of a master.
The pearls and other materials used in the dress may not seem expensive, but the size of each pearl is perfectly matched to its position. At first glance, it seems that the white dress she is wearing is a beautiful piece of music in itself.
Those who don't know her value might mistake her outfit for ordinary clothes, but those with more knowledge and discerning eyes will be amazed by the ingenuity she displays in her attire.
The young woman dressed in such understated yet luxurious attire was none other than Princess Sheng Linglong of the Jin Kingdom. At this moment, she sat comfortably on the guest chair in the center of the room, enjoying Zhu Yunqing's service without a care in the world. Even now that You Wensi had arrived, she showed no intention of getting up.
Chapter 553 Zhuge Liang was cautious throughout his life...
Whether as a guest or as a princess, Sheng Linglong could act this way out of courtesy and reason. Moreover, this wasn't a private interaction in front of Yun Chu'an; in front of others, she still had to maintain this princess-like demeanor.
Seeing You Wensi emerge from the inner hall, she merely nodded slightly, while You Wensi bowed her head in respect: "Your Highness, it is an honor to have you here. Please forgive my lack of hospitality."
Sheng Linglong politely replied, "My dear minister, there's no need for such formalities. The Yun family is a family of meritorious officials; there's no need for such excessive politeness."
Outsiders might not know the inside story, but Sheng Linglong and You Wensi both knew that Yun Chu'an was the one who deserved the most credit for annihilating the Yellow Python Ancestor. He was the only one who was a guest of honor for the Jin Kingdom's princess and even the entire royal family, so the Huai Shan family now had to be led by him.
Naturally, they didn't pretend much with each other and simply referred to this place as "the Yun family."
After exchanging pleasantries, You Wensi finally sat down and carefully observed the princess in front of him.
Without further ado, Sheng Linglong got straight to the point: "I have come here today to discuss important matters with the Yun family. I wonder if, given the current talent pool of the Yun family, you are interested in investing in the mines and contributing to the forging of weapons and magical artifacts for our Jin Kingdom?"
You Wensi was speechless. The Huai Shan family has mainly made its profits from various consumables, and has never been involved in mining or crafting weapons and magical artifacts.
She immediately said, "This old woman is foolish and cannot understand Your Highness's meaning. Please enlighten me."
Sheng Linglong continued, "It's like this: the mines and the forging of weapons and armor on both sides of Wei Lake have always been controlled by the Wenren family. However, in recent years, their family has been complacent and wants to monopolize this industry. For the long-term development of the country, this is definitely unacceptable to me."
"Therefore, I hope that Yunjia can also devote itself to this, perhaps, it can inject new vitality into the market."
Beside him, Zhu Yunqing was shocked upon hearing this. You Wensi was also surprised, never expecting that the princess's purpose in coming here would be like this.
Is this reasonable?
She didn't understand. Logically speaking, her family was already going to get a large piece of medicinal fields from the Nalan family. If they were to also take a share of the Wenren family's mines, wouldn't they be making too many enemies at the same time?
She was unsure, then lowered her head and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, Your Highness. However, the Yun family has never been involved in this industry before. We would appreciate it if Your Highness could give us some time to study and consider whether to officially enter the market."
Sheng Linglong nodded slightly: "Yes, I know you're in a difficult position. It's alright, don't worry, there's still plenty of time. I have time to wait for your reply."
After saying this, she didn't linger and got up to take her leave. She knew that the Yun family would have many concerns when facing such a situation, but she wasn't flustered. She still had time and a backup plan.
You Wensi and Zhu Yunqing rose to see her off. After exchanging pleasantries, Sheng Linglong transformed into a streak of light and flew away swiftly.
After watching her walk away, You Wensi pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Zhu Yunqing and asked, "Qing'er, what do you think?"
Zhu Yunqing withdrew her gaze and continued, "Mother, if you ask me... I think it's time to refuse Her Highness the Princess's suggestion."
You Wensi raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Why?"
“Because no one in our family truly understands anything about mining, metals, or the forging of weapons and armor,” Zhu Yunqing said. “If we were to get involved in this business, it would be like starting from scratch. Now that we’ve already acquired such a large medicinal herb field from the Nalan family, can we really still spare so much energy for this?”
You Wensi pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded: "That's true, but I think that Sheng Linglong couldn't possibly have overlooked the things we can consider."
“I bet next time, if we refuse, she’ll say she can send someone knowledgeable in this field to help us mine. We just need to lend her a name and we can keep making money.”
With that in mind, You Wensi concluded, "Essentially, she hopes to use our reputation and power to safeguard her plan to dismantle the local aristocratic families. I think the potential gains are substantial, and the risk is worth taking."
As she spoke, she gazed intently at Zhu Yunqing and asked, "What do you think?"
Without anyone noticing, perhaps even You Wensi herself didn't realize that her position relative to Zhu Yunqing had already shifted.
Previously, she was the head of the family, and her word was law. When she agreed to something, who dared to object?
However, now, even though no one has explicitly stated it, they all know that Yun Chu'an is the true head of the family. Furthermore, their positions are no longer equal; Zhu Yunqing is his lover, while You Wensi is merely a vessel, a sex slave.
If it weren't for the fact that her cultivation level was a whole realm higher than hers, You Wensi would actually not be qualified to have a conversation with Zhu Yunqing on equal terms.
Zhu Yunqing understood this as well, but her personality clashed with You Wensi's. Hearing that You Wensi claimed the potential gains were substantial and the risk worth taking, she instinctively felt a strong sense of resistance. She continued, "Mother, as the ancients said, 'Zhuge Liang was cautious throughout his life.' In a field we know nothing about, wouldn't it be better to proceed cautiously step by step?"
"How can we be sure that the people sent by the princess won't have ulterior motives if we step into an industry we don't understand at all and just rely on them? If they deceive and fool us on professional matters, won't we end up being used by them and becoming their puppets?"
Zhu Yunqing said that there was actually a second line to this poem, but it was not appropriate to put it here, so she did not recite it.
She stated her concerns in this way, and finally compromised: "Even if we were to get involved, first of all, we need a trustworthy person in our family who specializes in this field and becomes a master in it. Even if they can't be in charge of everything on their own, they can at least supervise them to prevent them from being cheated and having their money counted by them."
You Wensi frowned, thinking that there was no need to worry about that. He said that his Corpse-Driving Sect was proficient in soul-seizing techniques. No matter who the princess sent, as long as Yun Chuan, Nie Ningshuang, and he worked together and used some tricks on them, they would be able to be subdued.
