Chapter 244: Marquis, wait~ (Please subscribe)



The newly arrived Wen Renying by the backyard pond had already spotted Zhou Tiance.

Shape-shifting into such a tall and robust figure like Chen Yuan, observing from this perspective indeed brings a fresh feeling.

"How strange~ Why does he seem younger?"

Earlier, when sneaking into the Zhou Residence, Wen Renying was clear about Zhou Tiance's appearance. Looking at him again, she found him inexplicably much younger.

Perhaps the night's darkness made the old fellow seem more somber.

Taking another look, Wen Renying sauntered over, her imposing figure surprisingly exuding a touch of allure.

"Great-grandfather~"

Zhou Tiance was sitting alone in the pavilion, dressed in a plain white casual outfit with a purple cloak draped over his shoulders — the very cloak signifying his status as Marquis.

At the moment, he was leisurely fishing with a rod, but upon seeing Chen Yuan approach, the calm on his face turned into surprise.

"Yuan Er, aren't you at the camp outside the mansion? Why have you returned?"

As he finished speaking, Zhou Tiance detected something unusual from the oddly stepping "Chen Yuan," and his previously clear eyes suddenly became dignified and cold.

"You're not Yuan Er! Who are you?"

Wen Renying was unbothered by his detection of the anomaly, she continued to approach while covering her mouth with a playful laugh:

"Great-grandfather~, I am Chen Yuan, your grandson~"

"How dare you impersonate the Marquis of Wei Dynasty, audacious!"

Zhou Tiance's gaze sharpened, and he swung the intricately carved emerald fishing rod abruptly, the curved hook drawing a shriek as it was pulled by the line.

"Oh~ Why are you like this, sir?"

Wen Renying stopped her steps and dodged the hook sideways, her enchanting eyes still fixed on Zhou Tiance.

Immediately, she showed no mercy either — nine pure white tails suddenly emerged from behind her, releasing an intoxicating fragrance as they danced.

Under the sunlight, a faint pink crystal-like mist spread, swiftly enveloping the pond area.

"Demon fox?!"

Zhou Tiance's eyes narrowed, and his aged face furrowed with suspicion, he asked in a deep voice:

"Are you a demon from the Demon Court?"

"No, you are a demon from the Bai Shen Sect!"

Wen Renying saw the confusion on his face and spoke with amusement:

"Old Marquis, previously I heard you were the leader of the 'Hidden Dragon,' and was a bit skeptical. Now it seems your relationship with my Bai Shen Sect isn't shallow at all~"

Saying so, she no longer maintained the form of Chen Yuan, dispelling the magic enveloping her to reveal her true appearance —

A dazzlingly alluring oval face, large and bright eyes, a small cherry-like mouth curving upwards, and red veils covering her body of the same scarlet hue.

Inside was a richly ornamented camisole barely concealing the upper edge of her slender waist, revealing a large expanse of whiteness as she moved.

"'Demoness' Wen Renying?"

Zhou Tiance recognized her identity, frowned, and asked, "Did he send you?"

He was incredulous, yet there was also a trace of hope in his heart.

"Is the 'he' in your mouth referring to my Sect Master?"

Wen Renying raised two fingers, shaking them before her neck, and slightly parted her rosy lips to speak:

"No, I'm here by the command of my master~"

"Master?"

Zhou Tiance paused, his face turning somewhat grim, and he extended his hands, bringing forth an eight-foot spear between them.

"In broad daylight, how dare you, a demon, trespass the Marquis Wu Mansion, inviting death!"

"Oh dear, I didn't come under the orders of the Bai Shen Sect, such a disappointment to you~" Wen Renying glanced at his spear from beneath her lashes, pouting as she spoke:

"You ah, with all the evil deeds you've done, you should've expected a day like this to come~"

"Why still cling to life so desperately~"

Although Chen Yi didn't specify how Zhou Tiance offended him when instructing her to come to Duke Jingye Mansion, Wen Renying is exceedingly intelligent.

Before coming here, she took the liberty of asking those controlled noble family sons, from whom she learned some rumors.

The rumors indicated that Zhou Tiance had been discontent with Chen Yi because of Chen Yuan's issue, and had supposedly done some outrageous things behind the scenes.

Moreover, at the celebration feast for Chen Yuan assuming the position of Duke Jingye, Chen Yi had explicitly pointed it out when restraining Zhou Tiance.

At that time, many noble family sons had caught the meaning within his words, and naturally, so did Wen Renying.

"Hmph! Whether my actions are evil or righteous, whether my merits outweigh my faults, is not for a 'demoness' like you to judge!"

Zhou Tiance snorted coldly, though his heart was a mix of emotions.

He couldn't understand why the people of Bai Shen Sect would target him, and as he sensed a faint heartache, suspicions about the Sect Master's identity rose.

"Old Marquis truly is... refusing to see the light until the coffin is shut~"

With these words, Wen Renying used two tones, the first half laced with some regret, the latter turning cold.

Though her demonic bloodline affected her mind, leading her to succumb to Chen Yi, she remained fundamentally a demon, a notorious evil demon in the Martial World of Wei Dynasty.

Thus, in this moment, as her cold voice echoed within the vibrant pink crystals, two tails instantly reached out in front of Zhou Tiance, wrapping his body.

Then wisps of demon energy covered her eyes, as she forced Zhou Tiance to stare back at her.

— Charm!

"You, how dare!?"

Zhou Tiance's aura erupted, linked with the power of heaven and earth, yet he was still unable to break free from the confines of the fox tails.

Soon, he saw Wen Renying's pink pupils and sensed something amiss, hastily shutting his eyes.

However, Wen Renying sneered, and two more fox tails emerged to forcefully open his eyelids:

"Old Marquis, why struggle?"
