Chapter 520 (1/2)
Chapter 520: 520
Long Yi led Qing Wu, Piao Xue, and Li Qing upstairs . No one dared to stop him .
The moment he walked up, Long Yi saw that there were two big fellows wearing leather armor standing upright outside Cui Niang's lady chamber . The moment the two fellows saw Long Yi and his group arrogantly walking over to them, their nerves tightened and they entered a battle-ready state .
However, a burst of cold qi came out of Li Qing's body and the two of them froze . They were no longer able to move their body and they were only able to move their eyes . There was a terror-stricken expression in their eyes .
“n.o.ble son Ying, don't be like this! You are drunk, ah…” Long Yi extended his hand as he wanted to open the door of the room . However, before he was able to open the door, he heard Cui Niang's scream coming from inside the room . In an instant, Long Yi's eyes flashed with a strange light and a smile which seemed as though it was not a smile appeared on his face .
“Cui… Cui Niang… Are you still unable to understand how this n.o.ble son feels about you?” A male voice resounded from inside the room . It seemed as though the speaker had drunk a lot .
“Cui Niang understands, however, Cui Niang cannot accept your feelings . ” Cui Niang's breathing was somewhat hurried .
“Why? Is it because of that stinking kid the other day? What is so good about him? Is he able to match this n.o.ble son?” The man roared like an angry lion . Sounds of porcelain being broken soon followed .
“No…… Don't! n.o.ble son Ying, let me go . ” A sound of silk tearing could be heard and Cui Niang's helpless crying voice could be heard . She was begging for Long Ying to let her off .
A hint of sneer appeared at the corner of Long Yi's mouth . Pus.h.i.+ng open the door, he looked at the pair of man and woman standing beside the window . Cui Niang was frightened out of her wits . Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears and her clothing was torn at her shoulder . As for Long Ying, his entire body was covered with an alcoholic smell and his face was twisted in anger .

“n.o.ble son, n.o.ble son……” Seeing Long Yi, Cui Niang suddenly pushed Long Ying away and rushed into Long Yi's bosom like a baby swallow returning to its nest . She burst into tears the next moment .
Long Yi patted the back of Cui Niang and stared at Long Ying with a sneer . He said, “Your Highness Crown Prince… It looks like you also like to use this kind of means to obtain your girls . Where is the romantic and pa.s.sionate skills that you were so proud of before?”
“Ximen Yu, it's you again! Why are you always getting in my way?” Long Ying's intoxication seemed to have disappeared in a flash . Nothing was left in him other than an intense hatred .
Long Yi laughed and he shook his head . He replied, “You are thinking too highly of yourself . Your current self is unworthy of becoming my opponent . ”
“You…… You will die an ugly death . ” Long Yi snorted and walked out in rage .
The moment Long Ying brushed past Long Yi, the blood skull on his left palm vibrated . However, it calmed down in an instant .
Long Yi frowned and turned his head to look at the back view of Long Ying . There seemed to be something off about this guy…
When Long Yi was lost in his thought, Cui Niang, who had a red face at this moment, lightly pushed Long Yi away . She was feeling shy and extremely uneasy .
“Wipe your tear . ” Long Yi took out a brocade handkerchief from his s.p.a.ce ring and handed it over to Cui Niang . After handing her the handkerchief, he found a chair to sit down . Qing Wu and Piao Xue immediately walked behind him and began to ma.s.sage his shoulders .
Cui Niang wiped her tears . When she saw that Qing Wu and Piao Xue were serving Long Yi, she became startled . However, her expression changed back to normal in an instant . Although Qing Wu and Piao Xue were wearing menswear, their slender figure and exquisite face clearly exposed the fact that they were girls .
Long Yi let out a moan as he felt extremely comfortable as the two girls serviced him . He shot Li Qing a meaningful glance . Li Qing immediately walked out and closed the door behind him .
Cui Niang quietly stuffed the brocade handkerchief into her sleeve before brewing a pot of tea beside Long Yi .
“n.o.ble son, please have a cup of tea . ” Cui Niang poured a cup of green tea and placed it in front of Long Yi . She stealthily took a quick glance at Long Yi . To her surprise, he was looking at her with a smile on his face . She hastily turned away and her heart started to pound .
“Cui Niang, when did you realize Long Ying's ident.i.ty?” Long Yi casually asked .
“A few days ago . I heard about it from the sisters here . However, I've just learned about n.o.ble son's ident.i.ty . ” Cui Niang took a deep breath and replied .
She had never thought that this man she had seen several days ago was the Second Young Master of the Ximen Residence whose prestige and power was soaring in the recent days .
“Since you know Long Ying is the crown prince, why didn't you accept him?” Long Yi asked . If a humble woman of the brothel was fancied by the crown prince, anyone in their place would have thought that it was the blessing given to them after three lifetimes .
“Although the ident.i.ty of the crown prince is distinguished, matters of the feelings cannot be measured by ident.i.ty . He can obtain the body of this small woman but the heart of this small woman will always be with the man she likes . ” Cui Niang softly replied . There was some determination, some pain, and even helplessness in her eyes .
“Then, who is in your heart?” Long Yi smiled and asked while sipping the tea .
The beautiful face of Cui Niang became all the rosier and she was unable to speak up . When she finally mustered up her courage and looked up, she saw that Long Yi was lost in his thoughts as he held the teacup . There was sadness, reminisce, and also a trace of vicissitude powerlessness in his eyes . It was the exact same look she saw when Long Yi was standing outside her window the other day . With a white robe, unruly long black hair, and sentimental eyes, his appearance instantly made her heart tremble as if she was electrocuted . His figure became engraved in her heart since then .
If it was not for that moment, perhaps, she would have already succ.u.mbed to Long Ying's advances long ago . Courtesans were courtesans . Even if many people pursued and flattered them, they couldn't turn into a well-bred lady . Their pure body was also just a bargaining chip for the sake of getting a higher price . They were no different from other prost.i.tutes .
However, a figure was engraved in her heart . It was the person who gave her a glimmer of hope . Even if it was only her body, she wanted to give it to the person she liked . That was the reason she kept resisting Long Ying advances even though she was powerless .
Although courtesans seemed to be unattainable, there were many people in the brothels . Information flowed through the place all the time and basically all the courtesans knew about the current situation in the Blue Waves Continent .
Now, the power of the Ximen Clan was rising and the power of the imperial Long Clan was being reduced . Anyone with discerning eyes would be able to see that something was going on . When Cui Niang learned that Long Yi was that legendary romantic Second Young Master of the Ximen Clan, it was impossible for her to not have some idea at the bottom of her heart . The person that she liked actually had the ability to protect her . This was simply blessing given to her by the Light G.o.d . Since the opportunity was right in front of her, how could she not think of catching it?
“Do you want to become the proprietress of this Vermillion Jade Cuddling House?” Long Yi suddenly asked . Cui Niang became instantly surprised .
Cui Niang hesitated for only a few seconds and agreed hastily . Originally, she wanted to beg Long Yi to take her along with him . Even if she could only become a maid beside him, she would be perfectly content . Becoming the proprietress of this brothel was another matter altogether . Although she would still have to be busy entertaining guests after becoming the proprietress, at least, she would be able to keep her body pure . No one would dare to cause trouble for her under the protection of the Ximen Clan . Furthermore, she believed that she would be able to do something for her sweetheart by being the proprietress of this brothel . She was extremely satisfied with this arrangement .
“Soon, you will have your wish fulfilled . ” Long Yi said with a smile . The temperament of this Cui Niang was tough and tensile . She was intelligent enough . She would be able to a.s.sume personal responsibility .
At this moment, there were dozens of corpses lying everywhere on the rockery and woods of the backyard of the Vermillion Jade Cuddling House .
Every corpse was frozen and had a very thin wound on their throat . They appeared as though they had just been taken out of a cold storage .
Li Qing walked out from a two storey building of that backyard . His expression was ice-cold and indifferent . In the secret rooms of this building behind him, nearly one hundred corpses laid dead as can be .
Li Qing walked forward with the sword in his hand . However, he suddenly heard a scream which came from the proprietress of the Vermillion Jade Cuddling House . She turned pale as she watched him kill everyone inside the store .
The eyes of Li Qing shone with a cold radiance and the Ice Sword in his hand made a white arc . A head flew into the sky and everything became silent .
With the Ice Sword pointed towards the ground, blood flowed down the blade of this Ice Sword . When the drops of blood fell to the ground, they were already frozen .
In the next second, Long Yi appeared in front of Li Qing, along with Qing Wu, Piao Xue, and Cui Niang . The beautiful face of Cui Niang was deathly pale as she looked at the headless corpse of the proprietress . Clearly, she had never seen such a b.l.o.o.d.y scene before .
“Is everything settled?” Long Yi asked .
“Yes, Young Master . ” Li Qing answered briefly .
