Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Chapter 21 Ma Xiaotao: I really want to swallow you whole!

Zhu Yun'er knew in her heart that this old fox from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would never make baseless accusations.

She remained expressionless, nodding with a smile: "Since Sect Leader Ning has invited me, I have no objection. Please come with me."

After saying that, she stood up gracefully, whispered a few words to the old butler beside her, and then led Ning Yifeng to a quiet side hall.

The old man with a restrained aura followed closely behind Ning Yifeng, like a shadow.

Seeing that only the younger generation remained, Duke Zhu Fengjian of the Underworld felt embarrassed to stay any longer and made an excuse to leave as well.

Once the elders were no longer there to restrain them, the atmosphere instantly became much more relaxed and lively.

Ning Tian took a deep look at Dai Yuntian, as if trying to memorize his appearance, and then ran towards the unconscious Wu Feng.

Wu Xi followed obsequiously, saying, "Xiao Tian, ​​don't move, don't get your hands dirty. My sister's clothes are covered in dust, let me do it..."

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School members, who had previously looked at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with suspicion and scrutiny, were now filled with shock.

The boys and girls rushed over, their faces filled with curiosity and surprise.

"Dai Yuntian, can you tell us how your first spirit ring lasted for a thousand years?"

"Yeah, and how come your physical skills are so amazing? Do you have a teacher? Could you introduce us to your physical skills teacher?"

"Young Master Yun Tian, ​​actually, I..."

The crowd chattered amongst themselves, offering praise, compliments, and expressions of friendship, all surging towards Dai Yuntian like a tidal wave.

He instantly became the absolute focus of the entire audience, like a dazzling star that had suddenly risen.

However, Dai Yuntian remained unusually calm in the face of this sudden surge of popularity.

His gaze swept past the noisy crowd and landed precisely on the girl who had been worried about him and whose face was flushed with excitement.

He smiled slightly, pushed aside the crowd in front of him, and walked straight to Zhu Lu.

Under everyone's gaze, Dai Yuntian naturally took Zhu Lu's slightly cool hand, gently brushed it across the faint red mark on her face that had not yet completely faded, and whispered:
"Does it still hurt? Next time you fight for me, remember to pick the weaker ones. There were so many of them, and you were still so stupid to rush in."

Zhu Lu's pretty face instantly turned bright red, like a ripe apple. She lowered her head shyly and muttered softly, "Who told them to talk bad about Brother Yuntian..."

"And, Brother Yuntian, you are really amazing!" Zhu Lu looked up, her beautiful eyes sparkling like stars. All her previous worries turned into pride.

Especially her smug expression as she glanced at everyone, as if to say, "See, now you're convinced, aren't you? I told you my brother Yuntian isn't a sickly person!"

This intimate interaction, seemingly oblivious to others, resembled a beautiful painting, yet it also stirred subtle ripples in the hearts of some.

Standing to the side, Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms and watched the young couple's affectionate display. She couldn't help but purse her lips, her tone carrying a hint of sourness that she herself didn't realize:

"Sigh, he just got a fiancée and already forgot about his sister. My heart is so cold! The world is going to the dogs, and people's hearts have lost their way!"

Despite this, Ma Xiaotao didn't take Zhu Lu seriously at all.

After all, she was just a young girl with no figure or ability; she was only able to get engaged to Dai Yuntian because of her status as the legitimate daughter of the Zhu family.

What does she have to compare herself to?
She herself harbored great ambitions! Thinking of this, Ma Xiaotao subconsciously straightened her back, her chest forming a proud curve that was simply breathtaking.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Dai Huabin, who was standing next to her, immediately got angry, even though he knew nothing about matters between men and women.

But the way this woman looked at her third brother was almost suggestive, and coupled with what she just said, it was hard not to have some thoughts.

No, even you, an old woman, have designs on my third brother?
Dai Huabin glared at Ma Xiaotao: "Hey, Ma Xiaotao, what do you mean by that? I'm warning you, don't get any funny ideas about my third brother, I'll be keeping an eye on you!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao was not angry at all; instead, her red lips curved into an extremely alluring smile.

She stretched lazily, her stunning figure displayed in the sunlight, and deliberately drew out her words with a hint of provocation: "Oh? Is that so? Well... not necessarily~"

This ambiguous answer only confirmed Dai Huabin's suspicions, making him so angry that the veins on his forehead throbbed.

Dai Yueheng quickly stepped forward to smooth things over. He knew Ma Xiaotao's personality and assumed she was just joking to tease her serious younger brother. He patted Dai Huabin on the shoulder and said, "Alright, alright, Huabin, Xiaotao was just joking. Don't take it seriously."

Dai Huabin calmed down, but his eyes remained fixed on Ma Xiaotao.

It wasn't because he disliked Ma Xiaotao, but because he was stubborn and inflexible.

After all, liking a younger brother seems like some kind of special fetish!
Seeing this, Dai Yueheng looked helplessly at Ma Xiaotao and said, "Xiaotao, you should say less."

"alright."

Ma Xiaotao shrugged and smiled, giving Dai Yueheng face and not provoking Dai Huabin any further.

However, her beautiful eyes never left Dai Yuntian, who was surrounded by the crowd, and deep in her eyes, there was an indescribable fervor and...desire.

She extended her pink tongue and gently licked her full, red lips, whispering in a voice only she could hear, with a hint of intoxication:
"Little one...grow up quickly...the scent you exude is so tempting...I can't resist the urge to 'swallow' you whole..."

……

The air in the side hall was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood.

After the maid served the fragrant tea, she quietly withdrew, leaving only Zhu Yun'er, Ning Yifeng, and Elder Feng standing silently to the side in the hall.

Ning Yifeng looked at Zhu Yun'er with a frank gaze and said directly, "Duchess, your son Dai Yuntian has truly broadened my horizons today. His innate full soul power and the first ring in a thousand years are astonishing."

"What's even more remarkable is his composure in the face of battle, his keen insight into the situation, and his combat prowess in overwhelming my daughter and Wu Feng without needing a martial spirit..."

"Such talent and temperament cannot be explained by the 'Mutated Black Tiger' martial soul. Therefore, I dare to guess that the martial soul type that your family has publicly announced may be... somewhat concealed?"

Zhu Yun'er was startled, realizing that the other party had become suspicious. He was indeed an old fox.

She maintained a polite smile, neither confirming nor denying, and said calmly:
"Yun'er has been sickly since childhood. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise that she developed some quick wit in adversity. As for the matter of her martial spirit, it concerns the inheritance of the family and is not convenient to discuss in detail. I hope Sect Master Ning will understand."

She skillfully steered the conversation away from the topic, while simultaneously making it clear that this was a family secret, and not a drop of water should be leaked.

Having said all that, Ning Yifeng would be a fool not to understand. He smiled slightly and said, "Madam, there is no need to worry. I have no intention of harming your son. It is just that after meeting him today, I am deeply impressed by his extraordinary talent and limitless potential."

"Although my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is far away in the Heavenly Soul Empire, it has always been happy to make friends with talents from all over the world!"
