Chapter 1063: Chapter 138: Feigning Compliance and Submission_4

On the contrary, Zhao Yu was feeling rather uneasy.
He had noticed that recently Princess Iron Fan’s gaze toward him had become increasingly strange.
Especially when it came to energy gaining, he could actually obtain ten times more energy from Princess Iron Fan.
This was simply unimaginable.
After all, he and Princess Iron Fan were innocent in their dealings, so how could he draw so much energy?
Zhao Yu guessed that perhaps it was his many stories that attracted Princess Iron Fan.
In truth, it was more or less the case. Princess Iron Fan, born into a prestigious family and well-informed, would never have crossed paths with him if she hadn’t been deceived by the Bull Demon King in her youth.
Now that she had met Zhao Yu, a man of wide experience who constantly offered up novel ideas, she immediately regarded him as a confidant.
Princess Iron Fan also felt troubled, and upon further reflection, wished she could have met Zhao Yu earlier.
“I was born before you; you were born while I was already married…”
“Alas!!”
Princess Iron Fan heaved a sigh. In just one short year of acquaintance, she had unconsciously fallen in love with Zhao Yu.
But she had no choice but to let go. Over this year, she had also realized that the Jade-faced Vixen’s love for Zhao Yu was genuine.
Finally, one day, after Zhao Yu brought up his departure to travel again, Princess Iron Fan didn’t insist he stay.
“Thank you, Brother Bull and sister-in-law, for your hospitality. I will visit again in the future!”
Once he could take his leave, Zhao Yu was overjoyed and quickly bid farewell with the Jade-faced Vixen in tow.
The Bull Demon King and his wife insisted on seeing them off thousands of miles before turning back.
“Brother, where are we going now?” After leaving the Bull Demon King, the Jade-faced Vixen felt less burdened, leaning on Zhao Yu and asking.
“Where to go, I am not sure. Let’s just get far away from Bull Demon King’s territory first…” Zhao Yu thought, he had turned the Jade-faced Vixen into his own lookalike; if the Bull Demon King thought it over, he would certainly chase him down to kill.
“Mm-hmm, as long as Brother is with me, anywhere is fine!” the Vixen, now subdued, spoke not with her previous charm but with a newfound innocence and sincerity.
Perhaps this was the change that comes with falling in love with someone.
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, then, taking the Vixen along, he sped off in one direction.
After a week of continuous escape, when they were far enough from Bull Demon King’s domain, they finally slowed down.
Then, the Vixen clung to Zhao Yu, wanting to hear stories of the past, and Zhao Yu recounted the tale of his other six wives.
Fortunately for him, the Vixen didn’t think there was anything wrong. Being by Zhao Yu’s side was all that mattered to her; how many other women he had did not concern her.
Zhao Yu understood, after all, the Vixen was a wild spirit who lacked human virtues, moral codes, and the concepts of propriety and shame.@@novelbin@@
In her view, a powerful man should occupy many women – it signified his prestige, and she would take pride in speaking of it.
On the contrary, the Bull Demon King and his wife’s insistence on monogamy was unusual among demons.
The main reason, of course, was that Princess Iron Fan had a noble background and cared about such propriety.
“Madam, you are leaving?” The Bull Demon King was ecstatic inside, yet he put on a reluctant face.
“If you can’t bear my departure, shall I not leave?” Princess Iron Fan said with a teasing smile.
“Ah, by no means should you delay important matters for my sake…” the Bull Demon King quickly waved his hands, indicating that matters at her maternal home were more pressing.
“Hehe, you must be looking forward to my departure, right?!” Princess Iron Fan laughed coldly, then said, “I don’t know when I will return from my maternal home this time, you take good care of yourself…”
“All right, all right, Madam, rest assured. I will keep our domain well secured…” the Bull Demon King readily agreed, now just waiting for Princess Iron Fan to leave.
“Well, I am off!”
Having said that, Princess Iron Fan departed on a cloud.
About fifteen minutes after she had gone, the Bull Demon King joyfully sprang to life.
“My little treasure, I am coming!”
Muttering to himself, he quickly activated the tracking spell he had placed on the Jade-faced Vixen and also departed on a cloud.
“Am I really going to miss out?”
Princess Iron Fan stopped on a mountaintop, looking in the direction of the tracking mark, murmuring to herself.
“No…”
It only took her a moment to decide that she needed to find Zhao Yu.
With the tracking spell activated, Princess Iron Fan pursued in the direction where Zhao Yu had gone.
Unexpectedly, the directions in which the Bull Demon King and his wife were flying were the same.
The difference was that the Bull Demon King’s tracking mark was on the Jade-faced Vixen, while Princess Iron Fan’s tracking mark was on Zhao Yu.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yu, who was on the road, was unaware that both he and the Jade-faced Vixen were under tracking spells.
After all, their current levels were only Heavenly Immortal.
As they passed through a city with human bloodline, Zhao Yu suddenly stopped.
“That is…”
He furrowed his brow, focusing on a location in the city.
“My lord, what are you looking at?” The Jade-faced Vixen was puzzled, following Zhao Yu’s gaze. She saw two beings that seemed like Oxhead and Horseface, holding iron chains, escorting a humanoid soul towards a place.
“What is that?”
“Oh, that’s the afterlife officials capturing a soul!” the Vixen explained nonchalantly.
Zhao Yu frowned and said, “But the state of that person’s soul seems as if it’s not yet time for death…”

What do you think?
