Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me

Chapter 1402: Chapter 1361: Inquiry

Gazing at Ji Weiwei, who was contentedly curled up in the bed, Lu Chuan pulled at the corners of his mouth.

See, didn’t that solve the problem?

Although the method was somewhat… not very appropriate, at least it vented the dissatisfaction in his heart. As long as they could coexist peacefully afterward, Lu Chuan felt very grateful and thankful.

With that thought, Lu Chuan struggled to sit up, got dressed, and smiled ruefully.

Of course, Ji Weiwei knew what Lu Chuan was thinking. She pouted resentfully and said, “Go on, go accompany other women.”

“Our Vivi is so generous!”

“Bah, you just think I’m easy to bully!”

Is that so?

Not entirely.

Upon leaving the room, before Lu Chuan could decide whose room to visit next, he was suddenly grabbed by the wrist and hurriedly pulled into a room.

“Qing, Qingci?”

“Lu Chuan, how long has it been since you visited me and Ling’er?”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan lowered his head and replied with a bitter smile, “Five months…”

“Exactly! You remember it’s been five months! Have you forgotten all about me and Ling’er?”

“How could I! I’ve been trying to find a way to awaken Ling’er. Look.”

As he spoke, Lu Chuan took out the Human Emperor’s Pendant and the Earth Amulet and explained, “Once I gather the Heaven, Earth, and Man Tri-Pendants, there might be a chance to awaken Ling’er. I’ve been busy for this all these months.”

Han Qingci asked doubtfully, “Really?”

“Absolutely true!”

“That’s more like it… You thought you could fool us because Ling’er was in a coma, but Ling’er knows everything.”

“I never intended to deceive you.”

“Then what about all the women who came today, were they all your…”

“Most of them,” Lu Chuan replied.

“You answered quite candidly. Aren’t you worried you’ll exhaust yourself to death!”

Han Qingci bit her lip lightly, angrily twisted Lu Chuan’s waist.

“Don’t you know me by now?”

Faced with Lu Chuan’s meaningful smile, Han Qingci took a few steps back and sat beside Zhong Ling’er, her voice weak like a mosquito’s buzz, “N-now it’s not a good time, I’m not feeling well these days.”

“Is it that time? Is it painful? I have a remedy here that can relieve the pain.”

“It’s okay, it’s not too painful. In any case, you should hurry to find a way to awaken Ling’er, or else I’ll be bored alone at home.”

“Rest assured, Qingci, I will do my utmost to find a way to awaken Ling’er.”

“That’s more like it…”

Han Qingci nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment, then stood up, approached Lu Chuan, and gently kissed him on the corner of his lips.

“T-taking a bit of interest first!”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan suddenly laughed.

“In a few days, I’ll truly make it up to you.”

After a brief moment of intimacy, Lu Chuan was shooed out of the room by Han Qingci. Helpless, Lu Chuan could only seek another option.

At this moment, Fuxiang swayed her hips forward, her fox tail gently swaying behind as it wrapped around Lu Chuan’s waist.

“Lu Chuan, my lady requests your presence.”

“Have your lady wait; it’s not her turn yet.”

Fuxiang then giggled prettily and said, “I wouldn’t dare pass those words along to my lady. You should personally tell her, my lord~”

This address of ‘my lord’ immediately softened Lu Chuan’s resolve, leaving him unable to move. He could only let Fuxiang lead him by the waist with her fox tail.

Upon entering the room, before Lu Chuan could speak, Fuxiang turned and exited the room, sitting in the small pavilion in the courtyard.

“Lu Chuan, you’re quite bold, making me wait even though I sent someone to invite you. What, have you forgotten past loves for new ones?”

“How could I? I’m here, aren’t I?”

“Come here, sit down!”

Yun Ji beckoned with her finger, giving a look that anyone could understand. Lu Chuan suddenly smiled, quickly walked forward, and took Yun Ji into his arms.

“You heartless creature, didn’t think to see me?”

“My schedule has been tight, no time at all. I just returned from the Island Country yesterday and obtained the Earth Amulet.”

Yun Ji, of course, knew about the Heaven, Earth, and Man Tri-Pendants, her eyes showed a hint of surprise, “You’ve already got the Earth Amulet?”

“Yes, along with the Human Emperor’s Pendant. I have both now, but…”

Lu Chuan sighed lightly and said helplessly, “The Heavenly Pendant is likely in the Penglai Immortal Domain. With my current ability, it might be difficult to obtain.”

“When you decide to head to the Penglai Immortal Domain, don’t hesitate to let me know. I’ll go with you.”

“Is it alright? Won’t it be too dangerous?”

“No worries, I have some unresolved grievances in the Penglai Immortal Domain. It’s about time to settle them.”

Catching a glimpse of Yun Ji’s fierce eyes, Lu Chuan nodded slightly.

“By the way, Yun Ji, have you heard of the name Yun Yan?”

At these words, Yun Ji’s expression visibly changed.

“That name is taboo for the Nine-tailed Fox and even the entire Demon Tribe. How did you know that name?”

“It’s a long story, complicated to explain. You tell me first, why Yun Yan became taboo, what did she do?”

“Because her insatiable greed indirectly led to the downfall of the Nine-tailed Fox and the Demon Tribe. What do you think she did?

Lu Chuan, I don’t care where you heard this name, but listen to me, don’t get involved with her; it’s of no benefit to you!”

“Young one, why are you badmouthing me? I was clearly striving for a glimmer of hope for the Demon Tribe, but in your mouth, I became greedy?”

As the voice fell, a fox tail suddenly grew from behind Lu Chuan, gently lifting Yun Ji’s chin.

“Such a pretty face, yet such a vicious heart?”

Hearing this, Yun Ji’s face turned stark white.

“W-what is this?”

Lu Chuan then sighed lightly, helplessly saying, “Due to certain reasons, Yun Yan’s soul was sealed within me, and in the short term, this seal can’t be undone.”

Lu Chuan did not want to reveal the Demon Suppression Pagoda, at least not yet, so he made up an excuse to brush it off.

“You… Lu Chuan, do you know how dangerous this is? According to the records in the tribe, back when the Nine-tailed Fox Clan was still called the Green Hill Fox Tribe, we were one of the most powerful demon tribes. In the end, it was under Yun Yan’s rule that the Green Hill Fox Tribe declined. Isn’t this a fact?”

“It is a fact, but it’s not my fault. I was wrongfully blamed for everything.”

“Yes, I don’t really know what happened back then, don’t I? It’s all up to you to say anyway. So, what will it take for you to leave Lu Chuan’s body?”

“Young girl, it’s not a question of wanting to leave. As Lu Chuan has made it clear, we’re both forced into this.”
