Chapter 500 (1/2)
In the spring rain, plums bloomed. After Long Yi's continuous las.h.i.+ng, the little mermaid was unable to endure it any longer. She finally fell asleep after the intense session with Long Yi.
Long Yi wrapped the little mermaid with a bath towel carried her to the bedroom. He placed her down on the big bed and left the room. After returning to the hall, Long Yi reclined on the sofa and he got lost in his thoughts. After that intense session, Long Yi wasn't exhausted at all. His thoughts were also a lot clearer.
”It's a little bit lacking. However, it seems as though Jingjing has some information that I can use against Mu Hanyan.” Long Yi muttered. He wanted to use Jingjing to breach open a gap in the dense fog of mystery that shrouded Mu Hanyan. However, he never expected that Jingjing would back out at the last minute. Long Yi came to the conclusion that Jingjing would not be able to bear the consequences if Mu Hanyan learnt about it.
Long Yi's thoughts were flying all over the place as he recalled everything which happened in the Blue Waves Continent these past few years. One scene after another replayed in his mind. He sighed and caressed that milky white pearl on his chest. Long Yi whispered, ”Xiao Yi ah Xiao Yi, why are you still not coming out? Where is the end of light and dark?”
Thinking about Xiao Yi, Long Yi was dejected in his heart. Long Yi could see her white hair fluttering in the wind and her face was without any makeup. As her appearance flashed before his eyes, Long Yi felt as though there was someone squeezing his heart.
All of a sudden, Long Yi felt something and he looked upwards. He flipped his body around and in the next second, he disappeared from the room.
The moment Long Yi disappeared from the room, a black shadow arrived on the roof of this Phoenix Inn. He respectfully clasped his hand and greeted Long Yi, ”Ha Lei greets Young Master.”
Long Yi nodded his head and said with a smile, ”Did Mu Hanyan send you here?”
Ha Lei was startled and he quickly replied Long Yi, ”Yes, Young Master.”
”Ha Lei, you are quite courageous.” Long Yi suddenly raised a difficult question. His expression became stern and killing intent leaked out of his body. All of his killing intent was directed at Ha Lei and pressured him.
”Ha Lei doesn't dare.” Ha Lei and Long Yi were bound by the Dark Soul Contract. Ha Lei was obviously unable to withstand Long Yi's killing intent. He suddenly felt as if his heart was frozen solid and his soul was distorting.
”Don't dare? You are a double-crossing b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Wasn't it Mu Hanyan's plan for you to come and help me?” Long Yi coldly said with a smile.
”Yes.” Long Yi's killing intent made Ha Lei's entire body tremble. This was the helplessness of the servant party of the Dark Soul Contract.
Long Yi was calm. He didn't utter a single word. He simply looked at Ha Lei with a cold expression on his face. However, his brain was working at full capacity. He wanted to use the Dark Soul Contract to force Ha Lei to break away from Mu Hanyan's control. All of a sudden, realization hit him like a thunderbolt. Breaking away from Mu Hanyan now was unnecessary. Regardless of Mu Hanyan's final objective, they were both working towards the same goal now. Why should he discard away such a good helper?
”Since you and Mu Hanyan are partners, you must be very clear about her origin. Is that right?” Long Yi coldly looked at Ha Lei and asked.
”I do, but I can't talk about it.” Ha Lei said while trembling. His body convulsed and his trembling became more and more violent. Before long, he fell to his knee on the roof and he held his head. Ha Lei roared with pain as though he was a wild beast experiencing extreme pain. He was unable to endure the pain and he rolled onto the ground. Moreover, a stream of blood flowed out of his mouth and it dyed his mask dark red.
Long Yi knitted his eyebrows before relaxing it. It was reasonable to say that Ha Lei was unable to defy his order at this moment. However, it also seemed as though Mu Hanyan had already taken some precautions against Long Yi. She had already done something to Ha Lei.
After a good while, Ha Lei stood up. Even though he was no longer feeling any pain, his legs were trembling and he appeared to be in sore straits.
”Why did Mu Hanyan ask you to look for me?” Long Yi asked.
”I don't know, she just instructed me to look for you, that's all.” Ha Lei said in a weak voice.
”Then, you can go back. Watch over White Cloud City for me and always be ready to cooperate with whatever I'm about to do.” Long Yi waved his hand. He wasn't interested in talking to Hal Lei any longer. He didn't have any extravagant hopes to obtain the information he wished to know from Ha Lei's mouth.
The only reason Mu Hanyan made Ha Lei look for him was to pa.s.s him a message. She wanted Long Yi to know that she already knew his ident.i.ty.
After Ha Lei disappeared, Long Yi thought about it for some time. He decided on something and he flew towards the sh.o.r.e of the White Cloud Lake.
A cold moonlight illuminated the White Cloud Lake as the moonlight pierced through the mist in the air. Along with the gentle breeze, the lake surface rippled. As ripples formed on the water surface, the silvery moonlight reflected off the ripples on the water surface.
At this moment, it was already late at night. Most of the gaily-painted pleasure-boats of White Cloud Lake had already switched off their multicolored magic lamps, leaving only a few small lamps to illuminate the boat as it flickered in the night. The pleasure-boats leisurely drifted on the surface of the White Cloud Lake. At first glance, it appeared as though this White Cloud Lake had many eyes floating on the surface of the water.
Jingjing had just finished her bath and was half-lying on the bed wearing pink bra and panties. At this moment, a large part of her snow-white jade skin was visible. At this moment, her glittering and translucent toes were squirming and she seemed to be in pain.
Creak, the door of the hall was pushed opened and footsteps could be heard as someone walked towards her lady's chamber.
Jingjing gritted her teeth and her pained expression reverted back to normal. Other than Mu Hanyan, no one else would directly walk in without knocking first.
Sure enough, she could see an exquisite figure the moment Mu Hanyan entered her room.
Mu Hanyan directly pulled a chair and sat down. She stared at Jingjing who was half-lying on the bed sluggishly. An inexplicable emotion flashed through her eyes.
”You always seem to forget to knock on the door before entering.” Jingjing sneered.
