Chapter 823: A dog is a dog
"Master, please don't move around. Let your disciple relieve your fatigue..."
Qin Yiyao's soft hand slowly climbed up Gu Heng's shoulder and gently massaged it. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on her master's handsome profile, her face flushed with a rosy blush.
Oh, she can even be shy.
She absolutely loves this contrast.
Qin Yiyao knew that her master must have seen something to have reacted this way.
She was secretly pleased with herself. Since she had time to be alone with her master, she couldn't waste this precious time.
"That's true, but you should wear more clothes. How can you not even wear an undergarment?" Gu Heng scolded, but feeling the just-right pressure of the massage on his shoulders, he secretly felt pleased.
When did this girl learn such massage skills?
Gu Heng hadn't taken her seriously when she said she could be a maid and serve him while he bathed, but now that she had said it, he knew she was completely serious!
"This is a bathhouse. I borrowed this maid's skirt, so I won't wear anything else inside."
She carefully felt the warmth on her hands.
Master's body is really strong, even though it's just his back, Qin Yiyao likes it very much.
Unfortunately, she could only massage him like this for now, and she really couldn't cross the line, which really annoyed her!
But Qin Yiyao was very patient.
With that thought in mind, she slowly entered the bath.
"How could you—" "Don't speak, Master, just enjoy yourself. This is the Empress herself relieving your fatigue."
Qin Yiyao, standing behind Gu Heng, began to explore upwards and downwards with her delicate hands.
This massage certainly shouldn't be limited to just the shoulders.
"My dear girl, I'm really tired today and need to rest properly."
"Don't do anything else you shouldn't do, understand?"
Gu Heng turned his head and glanced at her, only to find Qin Yiyao looking at him with a dazed expression, so he spoke up to warn her.
This girl probably wasn't disciplined enough, and now she's getting a little too cocky. I need to quickly tell her to tighten her belt.
"Oh dear~ Master is really overthinking things. I'm being very serious."
Qin Yiyao chuckled and turned Gu Heng's head back. She was actually somewhat tempted.
But since her master had said so, she couldn't go against his wishes, could she?
Anyway, there's plenty of time for them to get to know each other slowly, so what's the rush?
"It's good to know."
Gu Heng closed his eyes again and began to soak comfortably in the bath.
He began to relax, and the tension that had suddenly gripped him was now eased.
Seeing that Qin Yiyao was truly so obedient and did not overstep her bounds in any way, he slowly felt fatigue creeping over him...
Then I fell asleep.
"Master?"
Qin Yiyao whispered.
no respond.
Her hand stopped, and the warm blush on her face was hard to tell whether it was from the steam or from nervousness.
But Qin Yiyao was never a well-behaved disciple.
This time, she decided to behave herself because she didn't dare to gamble. What if her master pretended to be asleep and caught her in the act? Wouldn't that mean everything would be for nothing?
However, the eyes can be a little more unrestrained.
……
At the border between the Eastern Frontier and the Southern Wilderness, there once stood a mountain range where flames raged incessantly.
It is known to the world as the "Earthfire Mountain Range".
This place is a place where the boundaries of the land are clearly defined, and there are a large number of demonic beasts in it. Without exception, they have all been infected by the turbulent energy of the Earth Fire Mountain Range, making their bodies hot and smoky, and their ferocity has also increased to a new level.
Now, deep within this fiery mountain range, stands a majestic crimson palace. Its outline becomes increasingly clear in the blazing afterglow, and it sits precisely on the heart of the entire fiery mountain range!
It is known to the world as the "Crimson Flame Palace"!
Legend has it that this grand hall, which rose from nowhere, is not only the headquarters of the new force, the Crimson Flame Palace, but also a celestial treasure of extremely high quality!
After all, considering that the Lord of the Crimson Flame Palace was incredibly mysterious and his strength was unfathomable.
This speculation is not without merit.
Inside the Crimson Flame Palace.
The Crimson Flame Demon looked at the report handed to him by his subordinate and impatiently threw it into the lava next to him.
"Damn Jue Tian Pavilion! I've caused such a commotion, and they still haven't sent anyone to negotiate!"
"Do you really think my Crimson Flame Palace is some worthless piece of trash?"
It was in a very bad mood. Ever since it had been ordered by its master to establish this so-called "Crimson Flame Palace" in the Xuan Tian Realm, it had begun to recruit soldiers and horses on a large scale, attracting cultivators over in various ways.
It's quite simple. With such a generous reward, there are plenty of people who would be tempted. Not to mention that in the present Xuan Tian Realm, the path to immortality has reappeared, and everyone is unwilling to continue wasting their time in the mortal realm. Everyone wants to become stronger.
The Crimson Flame Demon is offering this opportunity to become stronger!
His master, the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal, left behind treasure troves in various worlds, including the Xuan Tian Realm. Although it wasn't the most abundant, it was definitely enough for the Crimson Flame Palace to expand rapidly and spread its influence and reputation throughout the Xuan Tian Realm.
just.
The number of people in the Crimson Flame Palace was increasing.
However, it never managed to attract the attention of the Jue Tian Pavilion!
The most crucial objective has not been achieved, and with so many resource-hungry subordinates under his command, the Crimson Flame Demon's mood is getting worse every day. Now he's even started randomly picking a few lucky ones and throwing them into the lava to kill them, just to relieve his boredom.
It had previously sent people to undermine the Central Plains Dynasty, hoping to attract the attention of the mysterious Empress of the Central Plains and, in turn, the attention of the Jue Tian Pavilion.
That Central Plains Dynasty must be related to the Jue Tian Pavilion!
But quite some time had passed without any response, and the Crimson Flame Demon was very anxious.
What if the owner comes back and finds that it couldn't even handle this simple task...?
"call out!"
The moment the ominous thought crossed his mind, the Crimson Flame Demon sensed a distortion in the space around him.
It immediately lay down on the ground, waiting for the figure to emerge.
"Welcome Master!"
"..."
Tianhuazi stepped out of the spatial rift, took off his bamboo hat, and looked at his surroundings expressionlessly.
"Get up."
"Yes!"
The Crimson Flame Demon looked at Tianhuazi, and the aura emanating from his body became even more solid and heavy.
"What did you gain from your trip to the Demon Realm and the Underworld, Master?"
"It's just a lot of fragments, not much of a harvest."
"I am still a little short of returning to my peak, the tenth level of the Supreme Realm. I need to go to the Immortal Realm and the Ancient Realm again to sever the remaining fragments before I will have the right to declare my return to the mortal world."
Tianhuazi put her straw hat back on.
The air in the Xuan Tian Realm smells better; it's pure, simple, and has a primal feel.
I won't go into detail about the Demon Realm, but the Underworld is an even more disliked place. The creatures of the Underworld are all burdened with a heavy aura of death. Although it's called the Underworld, in reality, the creatures that die don't actually go there.
Where exactly they went, it seems no one knows the answer.
However, the death aura emanating from the beings of the underworld is extremely heavy, and the cultivation techniques and spiritual attainments of people in that world are all related to this aspect.
At least in Tianhuazi's memory, the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal particularly disliked the Underworld and wanted to wipe out all the creatures in the Underworld, leaving behind a peaceful Underworld.
However, in the end, the Crimson Flame Demon Fairy didn't have the chance to do so.
"But what about you? How are you doing with the things I asked you to do?" Tianhuazi asked.
Finish.
The Crimson Flame Demon was drenched in sweat.
"Reporting to Master, there are still no results..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Crimson Flame Demon was kicked away.
Like a stray dog.
It was originally a hyena, but it hadn't been kicked like that in a long time.
"Useless trash! I gave you cultivation and resources, but now you can't offer anything worthwhile. Is this acceptable?"
Tianhua's tone was icy.
"Ahem, Master, please calm down..."
The Crimson Flame Demon got up from the ground and continued to crawl.
That kick just now almost crushed its body; it really showed no mercy!
"I have tried my best to expand the Crimson Flame Palace, and even extended my reach into the Central State Dynasty, which has close ties with the Absolute Heaven Pavilion, but they still haven't reacted, and I don't dare to make any decisions on my own."
It dared not make any further moves, and only said tremblingly, "Since there's no response, let's just be frank."
"Send someone to find someone who can speak with the Jue Tian Pavilion and tell them that the Chi Yan Palace wants to cooperate with the Jue Tian Pavilion."
"Yes, I'll do it right away!"
The Crimson Flame Demon quickly rolled down.
Tianhua stared at it impatiently.
This stray dog is utterly useless. If it weren't for the fact that it was the pet of the Crimson Flame Demon Immortal and had some connection to him now, and that killing it would leave him with no trusted confidants, Tianhuazi would never keep such a piece of trash.
A dog is a dog after all; it can't do anything without its owner's command.
