Chapter 375 – Seduction and Trap (1/2)

“I didn’t think you’d be a princess.” Li Qingshan smiled at Ye Liubo beside him.

“I’m no longer one. I’m your servant now, master.” Ye Liubo tightened her embrace around Li Qingshan’s arm with rippling eyes, causing it to sink into her extraordinarily full chest as she attempted to hide her fear.

“Is the matriarch really so scary?”

“She’s very scary!” Ye Liubo seemed to recall something and shuddered.

“Don’t be scared!” Li Qingshan wrapped his hand around her shoulder.

“Okay.” Ye Liubo gradually settled down, leaning against his chest. Even Ye Liusu would only give her assistance when she was in danger. Never did she completely depend on a person like this.

Along the way, Ye Liusu had constantly paid attention to Li Qingshan’s expressions, but she discovered he was like a sightseeing tourist, studying the structures in the surroundings in great interest.

As for Ye Liubo, she played the role of a tour guide, introducing the history of Blacklusture city to him. Under the influence of his easygoing attitude, she relaxed too, even teasing him from time to time. She did not seem like a defeated enemy who had just lost an important piece of territory at all.

Ye Liusu glanced back and let out an undiscoverable sigh. She was rather envious of her. This piece of territory held extremely great significance to the Spider Shadow clan, or even the entire race of Night Roaming folk.

Without him, it would be a territory where she could see the bright stars and the moon. She could still remember the shock she had experienced when she saw the night sky for the first time. She had personally destroyed the hope of the night roamers returning to the surface.

She clenched her fists such that her nails stabbed into her palms. She was unable to resent Li Qingshan, but she was unable to bring herself to serve a daemon either.

“Ye Liubo, why have you returned? You’ve even brought an outsider to Blacklustre city!”

A sharp, cold voice rang out. Li Qingshan followed the voice and saw a female night roamer standing on a spire of the castle, staring coldly at him.

The thin, upright bridge of her nose demonstrated her coldness and determination. Compared to such a prominent nose, her other features seemed a little obscure, like a sketch. However, once assembled, it completely matched her cold expression. She possessed her own kind of charm, enough for Li Qingshan’s eyes to light up despite having seen the various beauties the night roamers could offer already.

Her dark, blue hair was tied up in a thick, short braid. It was extremely efficient. She wore black leather clothes and pants, with black boots that reached her knees, which outlined her enchanting figure. She carried a dagger on her waist. She was actually no less beautiful than Ye Liusu, and her cultivation was actually greater.

Ye Liuxing studied Li Qingshan with a dagger-like gaze. Even his handsome appearance failed to faze her cold expression. He could clearly feel her indifference to others.

“Your sisters sure come in different shapes and sizes,” Li Qingshan smiled back at her as he whispered to Ye Liubo.

“It’s not like we’re sisters by blood.” Ye Liubo pouted.

As it turned out, they did not come from the same family. Instead, they became the daughters of the matriarch through their exceptional talent, crowned as regular princesses and high princesses and thus referring to each other as sisters. There was no connection by blood. As for who was older or younger, it was not based on age, but cultivation.

“Welcome back, your highness Liusu. Welcome back, your highness Liubo.”

The door opened loudly and guards stood to both sides, raising their spears and chanting together.

“Sir, please give your weapon to me.” A skinny caretaker in black robes arrived before Li Qingshan.

“Have I brought a weapon?” Li Qingshan waved his hand with a smile, and the ice blade vanished.

The caretaker was taken aback, and Li Qingshan had already walked in with his arm around Ye Liubo. The caretaker was too afraid to stop him. Daemon Generals held extraordinary status in the underground world. Daemons outclassing night roamers was an unspoken rule.

Entering the black hall, there was a water foundation in the centre, depicting a naked woman. The floor was covered in thick, patterned carpet, and the walls were draped with tapestry too, depicting the image of a brightly-coloured spider.

Two flights of stairs merged on the second floor like outspread arms. Ye Liuxing stood there, gazing over coldly.

“Liusu, come with me. Liubo, receive the esteemed guest.”

“What’s happened?”

Cold wind whistled around the pointy spire. Looking out the window, Blacklustre city seemed to stand below their feet. Ye Liuxing’s icy voice was even colder than the wind.

Ye Liusu told her everything that had happened.

Smack! There was a resonant slap, and Ye Liusu gained a handprint on her face. Blood oozed from the corner of her lips, but she remained exactly where she was.

“Do you know just what this piece of territory means to us? Do you know the price, the number of lives, the clan has given up for it?”

“I do.”

“He must die! And before the matriarch returns.” Ye Liuxing raised her hand again, but she never ended up swinging down. She swung it away viciously.

“I disagree!” Ye Liusu raised her head. Determination flooded her eyes.

“Do you want to undergo the punishment of the snake cavern?”
