Divine Enchantress: Night Emperor’s Beloved Consort - Chapter 87

-In the iron room at the underground palace-

Currently, a figure was standing in front of a supreme dragon in his human form.

One had a questioning gaze on her face and one had a helpless expression on his face.

After what seemed like eternity, a heavy sigh came out of the man’s mouth. With a heavy and helpless expression, he said, “Alright. I agree. I will summon one for each of them alright?”

His tone was still dark but it wasn’t as heavy and scary as when the first time she heard his voice.

Jiang Ying Yue smiled heartily underneath her veil. “En. Good then. Let’s go.”

Just now, right after they forged a soul contract and Anguo knelt on the flooe, Jiang Ying Yue asked him on how did he summon all the guardian beasts for the previous successors.

And they answer she got was: He could summon almost all of the magical beasts in the world because he was the supreme dragon. But there were also some of the guardians that were left behind by the previous palace masters at this place because they didn’t want their guardian beast to follow them after their death and they broke the soul contract.

But unfortunately, when the valley’s extermination happened back then, the palace master died along with his guardian beast and luckily, Changying had already become the official successor of the valley thus she had her own guardian beast bestowed upon her by Anguo.

“Why didn’t you help them back then?” Jiang Ying Yue inquired.

Of course, Anguo knew what she meant with the question. She was asking about why didn’t he help them when the valley was exterminated.

He smiled faintly but there was a trace of sadness behind it. “Back then, after my previous master away, I had already sworn that I would continue helping his valley grow by summoning guardian beasts for his successors just like what I did when he was alive. But, my sorrow of the betrayal that happened back then made me swore to never serve a human again and stay in this room.”

Jiang Ying Yue kept quiet and let him continue his story. Although she was wondering what betrayal was Anguo talking about, she didn’t ask. He would tell her if he wanted to.

“Since then, I stayed in this room and guarded this palace for my previous master. I was all alone and since only palace masters and successors could enter this place, I rarely meet human. That was until I saw you appearing in the tunnel. I saw something in you and decided to test you myself.”

Anguo looked at Jiang Ying Yue and smiled slightly. Jiang Ying Yue on the other hand, pointed at the stone on the table as if she didn’t hear his story at all.

“What is that stone for then?”

Anguo followed her finger and looked at the stone on the table. “Oh, it’s just for decoration. It’s to make people scared of me.”

He spoke like local tyrant.

What a cheater! Jiang Ying Yue almost wanted to beat him up.

Suddenly, her eyes brightened up and she squinted her eyes.

Anguo had a bad premonition in his heart.

“You said that you could summon most magical beasts right? And there should be a few magical beasts left in here still?” Her tone was mischievous. Anguo knew immediately that she was up to no good.

Nevertheless, he nodded honestly. She was his master. He didn’t want to lie to her.

“Good. Can you please help me by summoning the magical beasts in here? I would like them to be my friends’ guardian beasts.” Jiang Ying Yue ordered.

Anguo thought to himself: He was right. She really was up to no good.

He shook his head. “No can do. I only summon magical beasts to be the successor’s guardian, not for others.” He said firmly.

Jiang Ying Yue tilted her head while her right hand rubbed her chin behind the veil.

“Hmm but you said that I am your master and you’ll follow my order no? Plus, they are the only disciple of the valley and could be considered successors too. We will be the people to bring the magnificence of the valley back up. So how about it?”

And that was how we came to the scene where two figures stared at each other unwavering till Anguo decided to give in and followed his master’s orders.

Both of them then went outside to the main hall in the palace to meet Jiang Ying Yue’s friends.

Today was the day she would meet all of them again and she felt excited!

………………….

-In the main hall-

Right when Jiang Ying Yue entered, she saw Chanying, Liu Weimin, Han Jianyu and Han Jinghua were already seated there.

Chanying’s figure was starting to get more and more transparent and Jiang Ying Yue knew that she didn’t have much time left.

Liu Weimin was the first to greet her. A huge smiled plastered on his face and he shouted, “Yue Yue! Here, come and sit here!”

The young man was now slightly taller than before but his face was a lot more manly than the first time she saw him.

Heck, it had already been 5 years since she last saw all of them!

Jiang Ying Yue walked at a faster pace and arrived in front of Liu Weimin.

She patted his shoulder. “En. Weimin you are much more good looking now. So manly!”

The young man blushed at her words. Although the time outside was only one year, in here, it had already been 5 years since he last saw her ah!

And looking at her now, she was so tall. What did she eat?

Oh wait they didn’t eat at all. Sometimes they would drink water from the hotspring in here but that was it.

Jiang Ying Yue looked at the Han siblings and greeted them. “Nice to meet you again Jianyu, Jinghua!”

They had long established to call each other by given name to show their closeness so she didn’t feel awkward calling them like that at all.

Jiang Ying Yue’s eyes were locked onto her goddess of seduction.

Damn! She was even prettier and more seductive than before!

She was truly jealous ah. Some people didn’t need to work hard to be sexy and seductive at all. They were born with it and it came from their bones and this was totally the case for Jinghua!

Han Jinghua, unaware of the semi-perverted thought of Jiang Ying Yue, greeted her back enthusiastically.

“Ying Yue! You are much taller and more womanlike now! There was no trace of the teenager 5 years ago as well!”

Of course she knew that they all aged according to the world outside hence all of them only aged a year more but still, she was honestly shocked. Jiang Ying Yue really looked different now.

Her body was slender and tall and her legs were long.

Jiang Ying Yue smiled at Han Jinghua’s comment. She knew that she had grown quite tall compared to before.

Han Jianyu smiled and nodded at her. “Hello Ying Yue.”

He still wasn’t used to calling her by her name yet because the time they met and talked was very short before they were trapped in here.

Liu Weimin presumptuously grabbed Jiang Ying Yue’s hand and sat her on a chair next to him.

“So, how strong are you now?”

All of them seemed to forget both Chanying and Anguo being there. Forget it. They didn’t even see him following behind Jiang Ying Yue just now.

It wasn’t that Anguo didn’t want to enter Jiang Ying Yue’s sea of consciousness, but he didn’t want to.

Although Jiang Ying Yue couldn’t access her Godly Space, because when one formed a soul contract with a magical or divine beast, the beast could enter the master’s sea of consciousness at will. But the master could block the beast’s access from going out or hearing and seeing everything from his or her lake of consciousness.

But he preferred to walk. It had been a long time since he could materialized to a solid form. His form became transparent after his master broke the soul contract between them back then and when he swore to just guide the palace. Now he had a new master, he had a solid form.

Anguo looked at his master who forgot about him with a face as black as the bottom of a pot.
