Black Bellied Belle: Demon Lord, Bite the Bait Please

Chapter 7



Chapter 7.1: Elder Brother Bursting With Righteousness

The youth who had merely been sixteen years of age already sent chills running through people. Now that seven years had passed, what kind of a terrifying stage would he have reached!

The Blue Wave Emperor could only feel himself all knotted up inside at that moment, his brows knitting up so tightly it would be able to kill a fly.

Yan Su did not give much of a reaction. After the initial surprise passed, his demeanor was thoughtfully confident. “Your Majesty, although the Duke of Vast Oceans is indeed a troublesome and prickly entity, but I, Yan Su am no mere pushover either. If that is not sufficient, Your Majesty must not forget that behind your vassal’s daughter Yan Ning Luo, is the most powerful Faint Mist Clan throughout the lands.”

Once those words came out, it miraculously appeased the anxiety and unease inside the Blue Wave Emperor where he then could not help but to laugh at himself. “I have really lost it right there. I had allowed the Duke of Vast Oceans to almost scare myself out of my wits. It seems I am really getting old.”

“Your Majesty is just in your prime. Speaking of being old, isn’t your vassal here another two years older here! ?”

“Hahaha, Yan Su. Back when we sworn ourselves into brotherhood, we were just two ignorant little lads. In the blink of an eye, our children have now all grown up. Both of us have aged.”

With that bout of emotional outburst, he then came down from the Dragon Throne and patted Yan Su on the shoulder. “Eat in the palace today. It’s been a long time since we’ve sat down together to reminisce about old times. With your victorious return this time, you should rest yourself well for a period. With you around in our country, it really makes things so much easier for me.”

The Blue Emperor at that moment, had dispensed with formal terms of address. In private, the two of them were still the closest of brothers.

It could be said that Yan Su was beneath only one man and above all others in the Blue Wave Kingdom. The saying merit that surpasses the reign was never a worry that concerned the Emperor. It might be because only the two of them themselves knew the kinds of tempestuous storms they had weathered through together, and that the bond between them would never change no matter how many years pass.

Yan Su was made to remain in the palace, and Yan Xi Cheng went back to the Duke’s Manor on his own.

“The heir has returned!”

On the battlefield, Yan Xi Cheng was a grim faced, stalwart and severely strict general. But stripped of his battle robes, he was a elegant, suave and handsome young man in private.

As the esteemed heir, he did not put on any airs, highly approachable, and everyone in the manor loves him exceptionally.

Yan Xi Cheng stopped everyone from kneeling as they greeted him and he went on to say with a smile: “Is the Duchess feeling fine? I want to go see her.”

A rather pretty little servant girl then bravely said in a crisp voice: “The Duchess’ has been in good spirits the past few days and Her Highness had even gone to the temple to pray for the heir and His Highness!”

“Is that right?” Yan Xi Cheng then asked as his eyebrow lifted, the smile at the ends of his lips deepening a little. Glancing at the little servant girl, he then said: “Thanks a lot.”

He then walked past the others and went on his own towards the most luxurious abode among the women’s quarters.

As the Duchess of Eternal Peace had been slightly unwell the past few years, the place she lived in within the manor had exceptional views and the air felt recuperative. Though quiet, there was no lack of opulence and luxury.

Along the way there, one would definitely have to go pass the most wretchedly worn little courtyard in the entire Duke’s Manor.

The Tranquil Abode, the place the lady had stayed at. It was a short lived marriage the Duke of Eternal Peace formed on one of his trips out. The lady had unfortunately died during childbirth from excessive loss of blood, but she had held on strongly enough to give birth to a set of twins of different sexes.

Before Yan Xi Cheng turned twelve, he had always been outside undergoing tough training in his cultivation. Upon reaching twelve years of age, he had followed his father to conquer the battlefield, hence he had never met this pair of younger siblings.

As he thought about that, he began to grow curious. His footsteps turned around and he went walking towards the Tranquil Abode. It was only when he came close to the place that he discovered that the courtyard was tiny and crudely simple, where even the quarters of higher positioned servants in the manor was better than this place.

Chapter 7.2: The Elder Brother Bursting With Righteousness

Yan Xi Cheng’s brows were furrowed up as he was thinking which impudent servant dared to be so harsh when the sound of light footsteps was heard from the inside. The doors then opened up from his knocking.

Yan Xi Cheng was caught off guard and he just stood there stunned.

Qing Yu had already sensed that someone was pacing outside the walls but she had not thought that it was Yan Xi Cheng and she could not help but find it laughable. This fella must be feeling too idle that he would actually come patronise their tiny little courtyard.

Although she already knew his identity, at that moment she had to put on an act. “You are?”

Yan Xi Cheng was really tongue tied with shock.

This is….. his younger sister?

Before this, he had once thought that the reason this sibling pair had been neglected for so many years might be because they were feeling inferior and were being timid, or they were feeling rebellious and refused to be taught.

But the young girl before his eyes was seen to be highly graceful and beautifully confident, not inferior in anyway to the daughters of other noble family in her demeanor.

And the most important thing was, the girl’s looks was actually so….. Alluring?

That’s right. Really alluring. Charm made in heaven oozing out right from her bones, a pair of slightly up slanted eyes like a phoenix swirling with a bright gleam, so beautiful she seemed not from this world. The ends of her lips slightly raised up, a faint smile on them while dressed in a pure white dress. She should give people a feeling of a pure white lotus in clear water but she somehow made people feel she was such a seductive beauty.

Qing Yu noticed that he still had not regained his wits and the smile on her lips deepened. With that smile, Yan Xi Cheng felt something warm inside his nose, like something was going to flow out uncontrollably. He quickly gathered himself and turned his gaze away.

This younger sister of his must not be underestimated!

If they were to go on the battlefield, would there even be a need to for a battle? Just bring her out there and the enemies would surrender without a fight, as her damage power was really just too strong.

Yan Xi Cheng thought rather evilly to himself in his heart.

He finally regained his senses and then laughed a little awkwardly. “You are called….. Qing Yu right? I am your elder brother Yan Xi Cheng.”

“Big Brother.” Qing Yu nodded, and called out in address courteously, her voice indescribably soft and enchanting.

Yan Xi Cheng was slightly taken aback and he coughed twice to conceal that moment of awkwardness before he said: “I just came back, and I will say that this is the first time I am meeting you as for so many years, I have seldom been back here. Oh right, where’s Qing Bei?”

His voice had just fallen when the sound of wheels rolling over the ground sounded from inside. A thin youth seated upon a wheelchair was coming out slowly as he pushed the wheelchair forward, his complexion pale with a pair of long slanted phoenix eyes that were magnificently exquisite, which had great likeness to those of the young girl’s.

He smiled at Yan Xi Cheng, and then said: “Big Brother, we’ve troubled you to come all the way here to see me and my elder sis.”

“Your legs…..” Yan Xi Cheng’s brows knitted up. “How did they become like this?”

Although he did not know much about what went on in the manor, but he had never heard anyone mention that the other young master in the manor was crippled and unable to walk. And even if he had injured himself, why did the manor’s physicians not treated him?

Just who would dare to show such careless disregard for his life! ?

Yan Xi Cheng’s face darkened. “Qing Bei, did anyone do this to you?”

As the heir of the family, how could he possibly not be aware of the methods the womenfolk of the household were capable of? This young youth must have been crippled for quite a period already!

The more he thought about it, the rage in him grew stronger. “Just tell me who did this to you. You do not need to care no matter who that person is. Since I have come back, I will not allow this matter to be left answered for. They had actually dared to harm the Young Master of the Eternal Peace Duke’s Manor, I will definitely make them pay the price!”

What a show of indignant rage against injustice. But just how much of that was truly genuine?
