Chapter 1502: Chapter 1461: Only This Once

Is Kong Yuanliang bad?

At his level, it’s actually hard to judge a person, or a matter, as simply good or bad.

As the Sect Master, Kong Yuanliang’s position must align with the majority of the Penglai Immortal Sect; his primary consideration has to be the internal interests of the sect. Therefore, many times the decisions Kong Yuanliang makes aren’t necessarily what he desires, but they are choices that benefit the majority.

People are complex, and so is Kong Yuanliang.

You may say he is bad, but a father who travels the world for over twenty years just to find a way to save his daughter, day after day, can such a person be considered a bad guy?

But to say he is good, the Penglai Immortal Domain harbors enmity towards the secular world, resulting in countless slaughters. Even if Kong Yuanliang didn’t participate directly, he must have indirectly acquiesced; otherwise, how would those below dare to act against orders under the guise of following them?

Good is never pure, and bad not thorough; this is the case with most people in this world, not just Kong Yuanliang.

“Alas… We’ll just have to take it one step at a time.”

“Don’t be too anxious, guess what I’ve prepared for you?”

Kong Zhaozhao smiled, took out a food box from her Storage Ring, and waved it in front of Lu Chuan.

“After you left, I looked for many chefs and learned how to cook from them. My culinary skills have improved a lot now!”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan couldn’t help but feel a warmth in his heart.

He vaguely remembered that during his last infiltration into the Penglai Immortal Domain, he casually complained about only having wine without any food to go with it, and unexpectedly, Kong Zhaozhao remembered this.

“Come on, try it! I didn’t prepare much due to time constraints, but this steamed pork turns out deliciously. Even my father said my results are not inferior to those famous chefs from the secular world!”

“Really? Then I must have a good taste of it. Is there wine?”

“I prepared it long ago!”

Kong Zhaozhao magically conjured a bottle of wine, lowered her voice, and said: “I stole this from my dad, don’t let him find out. It’s said that this wine has been aged for over three hundred years!”

As Kong Zhaozhao looked at him proudly, Lu Chuan gave a knowing smile and smacked a kiss on Kong Zhaozhao’s pretty cheek, causing her face to blush slightly.

“Eat first, otherwise, it’ll get cold…”

“It’s okay, we’ll warm it on the fire. Steamed pork actually gets better the more it’s steamed.”

Lu Chuan blew on the fire and lit it, setting a cup of warm wine on the stove, then gently lifted Kong Zhaozhao into his arms and walked back to the room.

And then…

Kong Yuanliang discovered that there seemed to be an invisible Barrier isolating the sound, even the Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate to find out what was going on inside, causing Kong Yuanliang’s face to darken immediately.

He was once like them, so he clearly knew what was happening inside.

Amorous feelings reunited after a long separation, what else could they do! These are things that can’t be openly talked about.

Imagining this, Kong Yuanliang’s expression turned even uglier.

His lovely daughter, like a delicate cabbage, how could she be taken by Lu Chuan, this pig!

That night, the evening glow on the horizon.

Kong Zhaozhao walked out of the room wearing a nightgown, slowly stepping towards the Lake Heart Pavilion. She wrote and drew on xuan paper with the Mystic Spirit Haunting Spike that Lu Chuan gave her, while Lu Chuan took a sip from the cup of warm wine he picked up, trying the dishes Kong Zhaozhao had especially prepared for him.

As for the taste…to put it in a word, it’s probably better left unsaid.

Ignoring the flavor, the texture was pretty decent. You could tell it was meat.

However, considering Kong Zhaozhao’s intentions, no matter how bad it tasted, not a single morsel could be left uneaten.

“Zhaozhao, stop drawing, the long night is dreary. Writing and drawing is so dull.”

“Why hurry, you haven’t finished eating yet. I just think we should document this moment.”

As the clouds reflect the brilliant sunset, the slanting rays penetrate through the lush branches, casting spots of light on the ground, making for a rare beautiful scene.

Lu Chuan walked on the lake surface to the Lake Heart Pavilion, wrapped his arms around Kong Zhaozhao’s slender waist, and whispered in her ear, “The Lake Heart Pavilion is also a good place, don’t you think?”

“No… someone will see us.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll set up a Barrier so even your dad won’t see.”

Feeling the warm breath by her ear, Kong Zhaozhao couldn’t help but feel a bit aroused, bit her lips lightly, turned around, leaned against Lu Chuan’s chest, her cheeks flushed, and said one word at a time, “Just this once!”

“Yes, just this once!”

…

The next day, at the headquarters of the Martial Alliance!

Nalan Xuan kicked the closed door open and slowly walked inside.

“Impudent! Nalan Xuan, you no longer have any position in the Martial Alliance. I can consider your behavior as provocation! Please leave now, or I will take special measures!”

“Special measures? What, are you going to kick me out? With just you guys? Just you, Jing Ziang?”

Nalan Xuan sneered, lightly swaying the folding fan in his hand, continued, “A bunch of cowards, only greedy for power and profit, daring to come out and reap the spoils after the enemy’s assault weakens. But you sure act tough when dealing with your own people.”

“You! You’re just talking nonsense! The Martial Alliance responded immediately, but the battle lines spanned the entire nation. How could we cover every place?”

“Enough, keep your shameful face. I can’t be bothered to listen to your nonsense, tell Cao Heng to come out and see me. My patience is limited, don’t waste my time.”

“Someone! Escort Nalan Xuan out, the Martial Alliance doesn’t welcome you!”

“I dare you to try!”

Nalan Xuan slammed the table, shattering the bluestone table into powder scattered across the ground, seeing this scene, Jing Ziang’s face suddenly darkened.

Nalan Xuan’s strength, actually everyone could see. As a strong expert in the Spirit Splitting Realm, Nalan Xuan’s combat power might not be at the top, but absolutely has the widest connections.

Back when the Azure Dragon Academy hadn’t been burned down, it had countless books, how many forces tried to curry favor just to seek a copy of a Cultivation Technique. Though the Azure Dragon Academy has now been destroyed, many forces still remember the past favors. It is precisely for this reason that when Nalan Xuan announced joining the Martial Alliance, it caused the force of the Martial Alliance to surge.

It can be said that most people joined because of Nalan Xuan, so when Nalan Xuan withdrew, these forces also unceremoniously chose to withdraw. Becoming hostile with Nalan Xuan would absolutely be the worst result!

Thinking of this, Jing Ziang, although unhappy, didn’t dare to say more nonsense, could only suppress his anger, let everyone retreat, then turned to leave to report the matter to the current Alliance Hierarch of the Martial Alliance, Cao Heng.

Seeing this scene, Nalan Xuan sneered again, lightly swayed the folding fan, letting the gentle wind caress his face.

“A group that only acts tough among themselves, what a laughing stock. Why are you still standing here? Didn’t I tell you to get lost?”
