CH 74

TL: Moonlit

Just as Bai Yu finished speaking, in an instant, a silver light appeared in front of him like lightning.

A tall figure completely obscured Bai Yu’s view.

Under the bright moonlight, his silver long hair fluttered in the wind. His white robe looked dignified and elegant, while his black wings were arrogant and flamboyant.

Shi Yunyi held his head high, his face cold and expressionless as he looked at Mo Yun.

His eyes narrowed slightly, filled with disdain.

His arm suddenly stretched out, and a golden scepter appeared in Shi Yunyi’s palm.

Shi Yunyi forcefully pointed the scepter at Mo Yun.

He looked arrogantly at the person in front of him and said slowly, “Mo Yun, how do you plan to die?”

Shi Yunyi looked wild and arrogant. He exuded an air of invincibility.

But who knew that his heart was almost jumping out of his chest.

That indescribable excitement made Shi Yunyi want to dance with joy.

If Mo Yun wasn’t here, he would have picked Bai Yu up and spun him around a hundred times.

But obviously, that could only stay in his mind.

He still had to maintain appearances.

Shi Yunyi’s face remained icy, but no one knew how much pain he was enduring.

To show his best side in front of Bai Yu, he was willing to go all out.

As a king who had reigned his whole life, he knew exactly what kind of demeanor he needed to display his most handsome side.

If Bai Yu could hear Shi Yunyi’s inner voice, what he would hear in his ears would surely be, “Bai Yu, look at me, see how handsome I am?”

However, that was only what he thought in his heart. On the surface, he maintained a cold and indifferent expression.

He appeared calm and composed, completely unlike the sobbing mess he had been behind the tree just a moment ago.

Mo Yun looked at the person in front of him in shock. He swallowed hard and involuntarily took a step back.

“Bai Yu, you betrayed me. Don’t you hate Shi Yunyi? Don’t you want him dead? Why are you two joining forces…”

Mo Yun’s words caused Shi Yunyi’s body to tremble slightly.

His appearance seemed calm and composed, but deep down, Mo Yun’s question mirrored his own thoughts.

Wasn’t Bai Yu supposed to despise him?

Previously, he wouldn’t even let Shi Yunyi touch him. He would always tell him to leave…

Shi Yunyi’s gaze grew dim, and he lowered his eyes slightly.

Although Bai Yu chose not to leave with Mo Yun this time, it didn’t mean he was willing to stay by Shi Yunyi’s side.

Mo Yun’s words struck a blow to Shi Yunyi’s heart.

His previously good mood plummeted by half…

Observing Shi Yunyi’s subtle change in expression, Mo Yun realized that Shi Yunyi’s appearance here today wasn’t something they had planned together.

Bai Yu probably just decided temporarily not to go with him.

Perhaps it was because Bai Yu discovered Shi Yunyi and became afraid.

Mo Yun regained his composure and smiled suddenly.

“Shi Yunyi, do you think Bai Yu wants to stay by your side? He merely found you and didn’t want to go with me because he was scared. Shi Yunyi, let me tell you, you’re just that detestable. Bai Yu really hates you!”

Mo Yun’s words were like daggers to the heart, and Shi Yunyi’s body visibly stiffened.

He wanted to ask Bai Yu, but he didn’t dare, because he feared receiving the most heartless answer.

But the next second, his waist was embraced.

Shi Yunyi froze in place.

An indescribable sensation surged from his heart, causing his heart to ripple like a pebble dropped into water.

Bai Yu’s soft body pressed against Shi Yunyi’s, and his head rested tightly against Shi Yunyi’s back.

A low voice followed.

“Shi Yunyi, I don’t hate you.”

Shi Yunyi gently curled up his lips and reached out to hold Bai Yu’s hand.

His fingers trembled incessantly, and the joy in his heart was overwhelming him.

It felt as if his body was filled with boundless strength. Shi Yunyi extended the scepter in his hand and pointed it directly at Mo Yun.

Without hesitation, a golden beam of light shot out from the center of the scepter.

Mo Yun was frightened, and his entire body trembled. Instinctively, he spread his wings and flew away.

The golden light grazed past him, and purple blood splattered from Mo Yun’s arm.

The intense pain made Mo Yun scream like a madman.

The Blood Emperor’s scepter could suppress regeneration. Once its beam touched a vampire’s skin, the regenerative ability in that area would cease.

Mo Yun flew away desperately because he knew that if he were hit by Shi Yunyi’s scepter, he would be doomed.

Throughout the ages, Mo Yun had honed many skills, but when it came to escaping, there was no one better than him.

Even Shi Yunyi couldn’t match his speed in flight. That was why he dared to appear here today.

But he never expected that Shi Yunyi would resort to such a lethal move. The pain in his arm drove him to flee as if possessed.

In fact, with Shi Yunyi’s strength, capturing Mo Yun wouldn’t be difficult.

But right now, he had more important things to do.

Not even a trace of killing intent arose in him just now.

Because the warm embrace behind him had engulfed his entire being. He had no extra energy to waste on fighting Mo Yun.

Shi Yunyi collected the scepter and suddenly turned around, embracing Bai Yu in his arms.

“Xiao Yu…”

Shi Yunyi’s voice trembled with emotion.

The body undulated up and down with excitement.

Shi Yunyi buried his head in Bai Yu’s neck and shoulder.

At this moment, he was like a large dog that had been brought back home by its owner, with his heart rejoicing and elated.

“Xiao Yu… I really like you.”

Bai Yu slightly raised his eyes and looked at the person in front of him, a gentle smile tugging at the corners of his lips.

“Shi Yunyi, you came out a bit late. I almost got caught by him.”

“But I didn’t know.”

Shi Yunyi’s voice carried a hint of grievance. He truly had no idea that Bai Yu felt this way.

He had thought Bai Yu would join forces with Mo Yun to kill him.

He never expected such a sudden turn of events.

His Xiao Yu didn’t want to kill him. He was willing to stay by his side and even said that he didn’t dislike him.

There was probably nothing happier in this world…

“Shi Yunyi,” Bai Yu’s voice rang out again. “Just now, Mo Yun said he has a way to find someone named Worcester. That person has the ability to kill you.”

Bai Yu still had a trace of worry in his heart.

However, Shi Yunyi didn’t care at all. He didn’t care about Worcester; he cared about Bai Yu.

“So, is that why you agreed to go with Mo Yun? Because of me?”

Shi Yunyi was already so happy that he didn’t know what to say.

He tightly embraced Bai Yu, his heart pounding fiercely in his chest.

For a moment, he felt like there was no sound around him.

All he could hear was the loud thumping of his own heartbeat.

“Thump, thump, thump…”

That feeling of happiness and joy made Shi Yunyi feel like he was floating on cloud nine.

He excitedly looked at the person in front of him and kissed him passionately.

Bai Yu’s lips were soft and sweet, making it impossible for him to stop.

In these past few days, Bai Yu had completely ignored him. Even a single word would earn him a scolding from Bai Yu.

To be able to embrace Bai Yu and kiss him like this at this moment felt like a dream come true.

Shi Yunyi, as if tireless, kissed Bai Yu fervently. His attack was intense, repeatedly sucking, nibbling, and intertwining, as if he wanted to devour the person before him.

Their breaths intertwined, panting non-stop…

A drowsy voice sounded in Bai Yu’s ear.

“[Ding, target’s affection +4, current affection 99%]”

“[Host, I knew you loved the villain! You almost scared me to death.]”

Xiao Mihu was about to cry, ecstatically happy inside.

But Bai Yu was not happy.

Really?

Such a big twist, Shi Yunyi’s affection should be off the charts, and he should complete the mission immediately.

He didn’t expect it to be stuck at 99% again.

Bai Yu felt a bit helpless.

Indeed, this was the villain he knew.

So stingy with giving affection every time.

But forget it, there was still plenty of time, and it was only 1%. It would be achieved soon enough.

Bai Yu smiled and hugged Shi Yunyi, returning his kiss.

Shi Yunyi’s injured heart had already begun to heal because of the person in front of him.

But he became anxious again, afraid of losing what he had.

Bai Yu was so good. What if someone tried to take him away one day?

No, he absolutely couldn’t let that happen!

This day had been full of ups and downs, and it made Shi Yunyi cherish the person in front of him even more.

He wanted to bind Bai Yu to his side forever, make him his, alone, and prevent anyone else from coveting him.

Shi Yunyi suddenly let go of Bai Yu.

He swung the scepter in his hand, and the roses in the garden rose with the swirling wind.

Countless rose petals scattered and gathered in the air, forming a rotating mass above Bai Yu’s head before slowly falling.

These countless petals, like raindrops, showered Bai Yu, covering him completely.

Shi Yunyi smiled as he looked at the person in front of him, at the smiling face and the cute dimples.

The feeling of liking in his heart had already filled his entire being.

He slowly kneeled down, one leg bending. The scepter in his hand transformed into a golden ring.

He reached out and held Bai Yu’s hand, then gazed at him motionlessly.

“Xiao Yu, will you marry me? I will make you the happiest person in the world!”
