335 What Else Could Be The Reason?

Finally, Lang Ju cleared his throat and spoke again.

"As for the Armament Division's disciple, was it quite necessary to maim her?"

Once he finished speaking, Lang Ju brought a hand to cover his mouth. He shuddered as he recalled the remains of the girl's permanent smile, carved onto her flesh.

Bai Qingyue's golden eyes flashed with a fierce light. "That vermin dared speak ill of my wife. The fact she is alive right now is her good fortune."

A look of comprehension gradually dawned on Lang Ju's ever-youthful visage.

So that was what had pressed His Lordship's buttons, for him to behave as he had done...

"Besides," Bai Qingyue flapped his sleeves as he mounted a crane, "I will not allow anyone to step all over my wife. If everyone fears her, they will all think twice before disrespecting her."

"My Lord is wise," Lang Ju agreed, after giving it some thought.

At first, he had not understood the reasons for the Fox Lord's actions, but after being given an explanation, he could not fault him.

Now that he had learned that Her Ladyship was treated badly by others in the sect, Lang Ju was no longer surprised by the Fox Lord's gruesome display of cruelty.

Bai Qingyue turned back to face Lang Ju one last time, pausing for a moment. The silvery strands of his hair flowed down over his wide shoulders like spiderwebs.

"If you sense the aura of an unfamiliar immortal presence, alert me at once."

"Yes, Sire!"

"... It is no enemy of ours, so there is no need to be on guard." Bai Qingyue added after some time. Turning back around, he took off.

Thunder roared in the distance as the lonely view of Bai Qingyue's broad back slowly disappeared behind the clouds.

Now that the coast was clear, Lang Ju released a breath of relief.

The Senior Servant had seen plenty of the Bai Clan members lose their minds over their fated partners, but the Sovereign Lord was on a whole different level!

Impersonating Li Meirong was one thing, but surely, the Sovereign Lord could have told his own wife about his plans first…

Now that his life wasn't at stake for speaking out of turn, Lang Ju gained enough courage to mumble his true thoughts aloud.

"Shouldn't the Sovereign Lord be consulting Her Ladyship upon these matters first?"

Lang Ju rubbed his chin and wondered. 'Also, why does the Sovereign Lord refuse to make it publicly known that Her Ladyship is his rightful consort? Could it be that His Lordship is ashamed of Her Ladyship's mortality, thus he waits for her to ascend? Or does he wish to officially keep Her Ladyship as a concubine, and bestow the title of Honourable Wife upon the Red Fox Princess, his childhood companion…?'

What else could be the reason?

No matter how long Lang Ju pondered over the matter, no logical explanation came to mind.

It was not as though the Sovereign Fox Lord feared the rejection of any female.

No one would dare oppose the Sovereign Lord's decisions, much less his own mortal wife.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Lang Ju tiredly rubbed his chin. Bai Qingyue's ways could never be understood by the likes of him.

The Fox Lord's thoughts were indeed deep and unfathomable.
