Chapter 55: Don’t Speak, Kiss Me

The crowd had frantically escaped from the grand hall, leaving Nie Chen feeling helpless.

Although he had indeed gone overboard in the Tomb, the Ancient Sacred Body was the one who should be held responsible.

If it weren’t for the Ancient Sacred Body, the female disciples in the Secret Realm wouldn’t have been bewitched and gone crazy, spreading their own achievements everywhere.

This was still a message that the various major forces wanted to seize the initiative to block, otherwise, the Heavenly Cloud Palace would have been crowded with people by now.

Seeing that there was no one around, Nie Chen finally entered the grand hall.

When Chu Qingyue saw Nie Chen’s figure, her eyes, like water, suddenly sparkled.

After all, she had been waiting for too long, and had even read the love letter and the letter Nie Chen left behind multiple times.

However, when Nie Chen approached, Chu Qingyue turned her head away, letting out a cold and light hum, her clear and cold face showing a hint of anger, as if she didn’t want to talk to him at all.

Nie Chen could only whisper in Chu Qingyue’s ear: “Empress~”

“Hmph!”

“Qingyue~”

“Hmph!”

“Wife~”

“You!…”

Finally, Chu Qingyue couldn’t hold back anymore.

It seemed that she had hesitated for a long time before finally speaking with a hint of shame and anger:

“I’ll give you a chance, but you must explain everything clearly today!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll tell you everything, and I’ll definitely make it clear!”

Nie Chen spoke with a righteous tone, as if he had no intention of hiding anything.

“Ah, ah, ah…”

Nie Chen quickly told Chu Qingyue about the situation in the Secret Realm.

“So, I cleared the Secret Realm for you and withstood the Nine-Turn Lightning Tribulation. It was only because of that strange golden light that the female disciples became infatuated?”

After Nie Chen finished speaking, Chu Qingyue asked.

“Yes, wife, you’re too smart. It is really just a simple misunderstanding.”

Nie Chen exclaimed excitedly.

“Are you sure you’re not hiding anything from me?”

“No, I’m not hiding anything. If I was, you could do whatever you want to me.”

“Oh? Is that so?”

But suddenly, Chu Qingyue’s tone changed.

This voice made Nie Chen feel a chill.

“Then can you tell me what happened with the Third Princess of the Imperial Court?”

When Nie Chen heard this, his mind went blank.

How could he have forgotten about this?!

The problem was that he hadn’t paid much attention to it at the time, so he had ignored it!

He was really innocent!

But the problem was that in this situation, even if he explained, it wouldn’t be convincing.

Nie Chen’s brain was racing, and he finally came up with a solution.

“Wife, please calm down, that was just a desperate measure, I did it all for you!”

“For me?

Hmph, don’t try to deceive me with your sweet talk.”

“I’m not deceiving you, I really just wanted to learn the Theory of the Uselessness of Dao Companions. If you don’t believe me, I can tell you what I learned.”

Nie Chen said, and then began to recite:

“Empress Qingyue said: ‘Men are the most evil creatures in the world, and must not be easily approached. They must not be dated, must not be eaten with, and must not be held hands with…'”

“Okay, I know, stop!”

Chu Qingyue’s face suddenly turned red.

In fact, she was just scaring Nie Chen.

She had already asked Shu Xiangdie and knew that Nie Chen had only held hands with the Third Princess because of the situation, and there was nothing between them.

What was more important was that reciting her own writings was too embarrassing!

Especially the first few lines about dating, eating, and holding hands, she had already done all of those with Nie Chen!

“Wife is so good, understanding is the best!”

Nie Chen smiled and took out a crystal ball from his pocket, holding it in front of Chu Qingyue:

“By the way, I have a gift for you.”

“A gift?”

Looking at the crystal ball in front of her, which was sparkling with colorful lights and had a beautiful landscape painted on it, Chu Qingyue’s eyes lit up.

Although she had established the Star Palace and had become stronger, she had also given up a lot.

She, who was not stained by the mundane world and was cold and indifferent to everything, had never received a gift before.

Even though the crystal ball didn’t have any spiritual energy and only looked pretty, Chu Qingyue still carefully took it and held it in her hand, as if it were a treasure.

Nie Chen smiled and said: “Empress likes the gift I gave her?”

Chu Qingyue immediately blushed and strongly denied: “No! I… I just don’t want it to break and dirty my floor!”

But although she said so, she couldn’t help but examine the crystal ball, her clear and bright eyes filled with curiosity.

Nie Chen said at this time:

“Actually, this crystal ball has another use, you can try to infuse it with spiritual energy and then put it next to your ear.”

Chu Qingyue’s curiosity grew stronger.

Even she couldn’t figure out the structure of the crystal ball after repeated observations.

Slowly infusing the crystal ball with spiritual energy, Chu Qingyue put it next to her ear.

In the next moment, Nie Chen’s voice came from inside:

“I love you, like the wind blowing through the eight thousand miles… Don’t ask, when I’ll return……”

The melodious song came, like a majestic mountain, like a gentle stream.

The melody was beautiful, with a foreign flavor that she had never heard before.

What was more important was the lyrics of the song.

Every sentence was about love, every sentence was about affection.

“Is this song… sung by you?”

Coming back to her senses, Chu Qingyue had already been captivated by the song’s lyrics and melody, her ears were red, and her face was like a sunset, beautiful beyond description.

Nie Chen nodded: “Yes, I recorded it on the way back to the Heavenly Cloud Palace. And every lyric in the song expresses my true feelings.”

Chu Qingyue’s eyes dodged, her lips pursed: “You’re just talking nonsense!”

“But wife, you seem to like it.”

“I… Hmph!”

Chu Qingyue let out a light hum, her head turned away in a proud and shy manner.

“Actually, I’m quite interested in this small crystal ball. But, did you forget something?”

“Forget what?”

Nie Chen was taken aback.

“Yes, you said that if you hid anything from me, I could do whatever I want to you. But in the end, you hid from me the fact that you held hands with someone else.”

When Nie Chen heard this, his face showed a hint of embarrassment, he didn’t expect to be caught like this.

“Although that’s the case, wife, please be gentle. After all, our strength difference is quite big, if you’re not careful, I might not survive.”

Nie Chen seemed a bit scared.

“No way!”

Chu Qingyue’s figure suddenly flashed.

Nie Chen was startled and instinctively dodged back.

But Chu Qingyue’s speed was far beyond his imagination.

When her beautiful face appeared in front of him, Nie Chen suddenly felt a softness on his lips.
