The Anarchic Consort Novel - Chapter 831
Chapter 831: Let’s Be Together For Real
Phoenix kept the bottle of mythical water into her pocket and left her hands there while staring at him.
The distance between the two of them was not too close, but it gave out a sense of ambiguity.
On the long flight of stairs, both of their outstanding appearances could already cause commotions, not to mention that they represented Tiao Dao and Buddhism respectively.
“For someone who ran away the next day after sleeping with me, I think that a greeting like this is just right.” The Emperor looked at her coldly. As he was speaking, he bent down again and shadows clouded under his eyes. He spoke to her with a low voice that only both of them could hear, “Phoenix, hasn’t anyone told you before that you need to take responsibility after sleeping with someone?”
Take responsibility? Phoenix frowned, “What happened last night should not be my responsibility.”
“Oh? I must have remembered wrongly then. You did not beg me to be more gentle, did you?” The man lifted Phoenix’s chin with a deceptive smile on his face, “Phoenix, who taught you to run away from your wrongdoings?”
After hearing what he had said, Phoenix raised her eyebrows and glanced at him. She shoved his hand away and said in a calm voice, “Both of us should know better. If it wasn’t for the meat dishes, nothing would have happened. Don’t act as if you don’t know that I can’t eat meat.”
Phoenix moved her gaze away from him as soon as she finished speaking. She habitually buried her chin into her cassock, which was a sign that the conversation had ended. Then, she walked forward indifferently, and could not care less about what would happen.
The man’s eyes sank as he looked at the only crimson figure within the entire Heaven and Earth of Buddhism.
He had expected Phoenix to show all kinds of reactions, be it angry or ashamed.
Yet, she did not show any of it and appeared rather indifferent instead.
The man threw away the scriptures in his hands. For the first time, there was no smile on his face. What remained were only his cold-looking eyes and thin lips that had pursed into a straight line. His eyebrows were thick, his nose was high and his eyes were clouded with haze.
Golden Lotus wanted to say something to him but before she did, the man had already walked away with ferocious-looking demons behind him. The threatening aura started permeating at that moment, almost engulfing the strong sanskrits and Light of Buddha.
Little Monk kept turning back to look at the man as he walked away. After Phoenix had entered the house, he could not resist it any further and asked, “My lord, what happened between you and the Emperor? How did it become this way?”
“Nothing happened.” Phoenix paused for a moment after she said that. She took out the manual in her arms, found a line on it and crossed it out carefully.
Little Monk leaned over to have a look. He frowned even harder, “As a dominant partner, you need to have a cold war with your partner once? My lord, what does this mean?”
“The Manual of Human Partners.” Phoenix lowered her head to keep the manual. Since she was already on bad terms with that person, she would be at a loss if she did not cross out another line on the manual.
Little Monk touched the back of his bald head and could not understand where exactly this was from.
But judging from today’s situation, it would not be as peaceful as before the next time the Emperor visits Buddhism.
He felt the need to appease his lord in the future and keep them from fighting. Otherwise, they would definitely be detained again.
Phoenix understood Little Monk’s concern. She was silent for a moment before she said, “He won’t come anymore.”
“He won’t come anymore?” Little Monk’s eyes were wide open, “Why?”
That person’s pride would not allow anyone to reject him for the second time. It would be the same no matter what purpose he had.
On top of that, he was just not used to the fact that she was the first to leave after what had happened last night.
Nothing else.
Phoenix answered silently in her heart. She laid out the scriptures in her hands and did not speak anymore. She lowered her head as she chanted the sutras. Her presence could barely be noticed due to the quietness.
Just as Phoenix had expected, the Emperor did not visit Buddhism again since that day.
Little Monk was finally relieved. He followed Phoenix with his short legs and was going to help the lord to retrieve the mythical water.
Strangely, he had already asked three immortals from Tian Dao, but all the mythical water was sold out.
It was not sold to Buddhism in addition. Instead, it was sold to the Emperor who was also from Tian Dao and never lacked mythical water.
Little Monk was dumbfounded, “My Lord, why did the Emperor buy so much mythical water?”
“He wants me to take the initiative to look for him.” Phoenix’s voice was weak. She then turned around to look at Little Monk, “We don’t need to visit the next shop anymore, let’s go directly to the temple.” They would have gotten the same result even if they continued with the search. It would not be surprising for that man to do such things with his means.
As expected, all the mythical water was gathered in one place.
It was as if the man had predicted her arrival. The immortal guided her in as soon as he saw her.
The destination was the royal chamber that they stayed the other night.
It might have been intentional. He did not remove the chain which she broke that day, instead, he left it where it was.
The man was sitting on a wooden chair crossing his legs with one hand supporting his chin. He looked at her with an indifferent expression, yet he was smiling, “Phoenix, you should be familiar with the place.”
Not everyone could enter the royal chamber of the temple. So, both the immortal and Little Monk were outside of the temple.
The man was undoubtedly dangerous, but Phoenix was not afraid. She went straight toward the Emperor and squinted her eyes, “What do you want?”
The man smiled upon hearing what she said. He then got up abruptly, grabbed her hands and dragged her over. He threw her onto the bed next to them and put his hands by her sides. He leaned toward her and asked with a deep voice, “What do you think?”
Both of their breaths were intertwined. Their chests were undulating as if something was going to jump out…
Phoenix stared directly at his handsome face with her clear phoenix eyes, not trying to avoid or hide from him, “If you want to do something like that, there are tons of people in Six Dao who are willing to do it with you. Don’t look for me, I don’t like it.”
“Really?” The man lowered his head and whispered with his thin lips sticking close to the back of her ear as if he was trying to kiss it. The atmosphere was rather passionate, “You didn’t seem to dislike it from your reaction that day.”
Phoenix pulled her neck back subconsciously to avoid his breath, but her body was firmly pinned down by the man. The man’s forehead was against her as he began to show his charming smile which had the ability to warm people’s hearts, “Phoenix, what about being together for real? Don’t you enjoy doing things written in the manual? Since we have already done what we should, why don’t we be together for real?”
Being together for real? Phoenix’s movements froze. Her eyes looked into the man’s eyes which were as deep as the night. Her smooth breathing suddenly started to change…
