71: The conversation between the two women

The two women glanced at each other, both letting out a soft hmph before turning their heads away.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan just chuckled.

It seemed his move was indeed the right one.

See? They've stopped making a scene, haven't they?

But before Gu Yuan could breathe a sigh of relief, the soft flesh on both sides of his waist was pinched and twisted by them simultaneously.

"Gu Yuan, you seem to be laughing quite happily. What, are you very proud of yourself for holding Dongfang Yingxue?"

"Rebellious Disciple, you actually dare to humiliate me like this! I... I'll fight you to the death!"

Nether Moon and Dongfang Yingxue spoke from his left and right respectively.

However, both women's tones were filled with dissatisfaction.

The former was because Gu Yuan was still holding Dongfang Yingxue, while the latter felt extremely ashamed to be held by Gu Yuan in front of Nether Moon.

Sigh, as they say, the blessing of having several wives at once is not something an ordinary person can endure.

Especially when they are two women who could be said to stand at the peak of the continent.

"Cough, I just want to say one thing: no one is allowed to make a scene anymore. Otherwise, I'll kiss you both once, and keep kissing until you're both submissive!"

Gu Yuan coughed lightly and then spoke seriously.

Huh!?

Nether Moon and Dongfang Yingxue looked at each other, then both nodded in unison.

In the next moment, Gu Yuan was pushed down by the two women together.

At the same time, a barrage of pillows, quilts, and other items were thrown at him.

"Pah! Shameless Rebellious Disciple, do you think This Venerable One is someone you can bully as you please?"

"Hee-hee~ Gu Yuan, I actually wouldn't mind being bullied by you, but... even I can't stand your arrogant look anymore~"

In the end, Gu Yuan was buried under a pile of quilts, pillows, and various other things.

Meanwhile, Dongfang Yingxue and Nether Moon left Gu Yuan's room together.

Well, in the end, Gu Yuan was still left alone... "Tsk, Dongfang Yingxue, I didn't expect someone as cold and aloof as you would actually end up with your own Disciple."

In the courtyard outside, Nether Moon looked at Dongfang Yingxue and said with a giggle.

Dongfang Yingxue gave a cold snort, glanced at Nether Moon, and said:

"A dignified Demon Venerable actually getting entangled with my Disciple. What, do you want to lower your seniority that much?"

Hey!

Nether Moon felt a surge of irritation upon hearing this, yet she felt somewhat helpless.

Because she realized... it really was the case!

By being with Gu Yuan, she really was a generation lower than this wretched woman, Dongfang Yingxue!

Seeing Nether Moon's vexed expression, the corners of Dongfang Yingxue's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Humph, you finally have your day!

"Fine, fine, I don't want to argue with you today. Dongfang Yingxue, I thank you for bringing Gu Yuan back to your Jade Moon Sect. Otherwise... perhaps I truly would never have met him in this life."

Nether Moon's expression turned serious, and she actually performed a formal bow toward Dongfang Yingxue.

One must know, she was the Ruler of the Endless Demon Domain, the current Demon Venerable.

Yet now, because of Gu Yuan, she was bowing to Dongfang Yingxue, a woman she had always disliked.

This showed just how important Gu Yuan was in Nether Moon's heart.

Seeing her like this, Dongfang Yingxue's expression also became extremely complex for a moment.

She had also realized this point.

She hadn't expected that Nether Moon's feelings for Gu Yuan would be so deep.

"Humph, he is a member of my Jade Moon Sect; he has nothing to do with you. However, I am quite curious how you met him, and how you... how you became like that with him..."

As Dongfang Yingxue spoke, her fair face flushed slightly, but she remained extremely curious in her heart.

Upon hearing this, Nether Moon was about to say something when she remembered what Gu Yuan had just told her.

"Mingyue, if Revered Master asks about my identity, you must not tell her that I am the person who saved her back then, okay?"

Though she didn't know why Gu Yuan wanted to hide it from Dongfang Yingxue just as he had hidden it from her initially.

But... humph, Gu Yuan's words actually suited her own desires perfectly.

She also really wanted to see what kind of reaction Dongfang Yingxue would have when she eventually learned Gu Yuan's true identity.

So, after a moment of reflection, Nether Moon said with a beaming smile:

"That is a secret between him and me~ In short, This Venerable One has taken a fancy to him. Why, is that not allowed?"

Ugh... Dongfang Yingxue gave her a somewhat annoyed look.

What was there for this woman to be so secretive about even now, really.

"If you won't say it, then forget it. Do you think This Venerable One cares that much? Humph, you can leave now. For Gu Yuan's sake, I won't argue with you."

Nether Moon just blinked upon hearing this, then let out a couple of soft laughs.

"Hee-hee~ Is Sister Dongfang starting to drive me away already~ Unfortunately, my feelings with Gu Yuan are currently heating up, and I really can't bear to leave him~"

Dongfang Yingxue gave a soft hmph, but in the next moment, she suddenly pursed her lips and gave a shallow smile.

"Is that so... Unfortunately, it seems there are many women around Gu Yuan. Whether he can bear to part with you is still a question."

That hateful Dongfang Yingxue!

Nether Moon instantly became a bit vexed.

Why did this woman have to bring up such a sore subject? Truly hateful!

Wait... and Gu Yuan, he's the one who's truly hateful. Why are there so many women around him?

Nether Moon thought, gritting her teeth slightly.

It seems that regarding Gu Yuan, she still needed more discipline. Yes, that's right!

"Sister Dongfang is quite right, but it seems this isn't something I alone need to worry about. Is Sister Dongfang not annoyed in her own heart?"

Nether Moon said, blinking at Dongfang Yingxue.

"I..." Dongfang Yingxue opened her mouth, but for a moment, she didn't know what to say.

How could she not be annoyed... It was just that regarding Gu Yuan, she couldn't help but want to dote on him more.

This was why every time Gu Yuan said some sweet words, her anger would completely vanish.

Sigh, speaking of which, she really was being completely manipulated by that Rebellious Disciple.

Seeing that Dongfang Yingxue didn't speak and her expression was somewhat erratic, Nether Moon laughed happily.

That's more like it. If there's to be annoyance, then everyone should be annoyed together!

"Well, since you're here acting as a third wheel today, I'll take my leave first~"

Leaving behind those words, Nether Moon vanished from the spot.

Humph!

Dongfang Yingxue snorted coldly. That woman was truly shameless!

But just how did Gu Yuan and her get to know each other?

Dongfang Yingxue didn't connect Gu Yuan with the person who had saved her back then.

After all, the person who saved her then had strength that was even above hers.

Therefore, it absolutely could not be Gu Yuan.

However... Nether Moon had been searching for that person ever since... Could it be... that the person she's looking for has some connection to Gu Yuan...?

Dongfang Yingxue shook her head. That Rebellious Disciple had many secrets on him.

Fine, fine. If he's unwilling to say, she wouldn't force him.

Thinking of the words Gu Yuan had said earlier, Dongfang Yingxue only felt a wave of softness in her heart.

Humph... I'll let you off this time, Rebellious Disciple~
