Chapter 442 412: Master of the Moon God Royal Court
"Two, let's just pretend this never happened."
Lady Radiant Moon was furious, her snow-white beauty surged, and her silver eyes were filled with shame and anger.
If it weren't for the fact that the Moon God Royal Court was still being rebuilt and needed Chu Yi, she would have killed this man as soon as he was born.
Ah?
Nothing happened?
Chu Yi stared at Lady Radiant Moon's face, like the flesh of a peeled lychee, and nodded, "Mom, I choose two."
"Don't call me Mom!"
Lady Radiant Moon was angry, her jade hand enveloped in moonlight as she grabbed Chu Yi's vulnerable spot. Chu Yi hissed at the rudeness of the Moon God's descendant.
He exhaled deeply, the threads of cause and effect grew clearer, and he peeked into the fate and fortune towering above Lady Radiant Moon, the strands coalescing into the shadow of a Desire Seed sapling.
Wait a moment.
This situation bore a resemblance to planting the Seed of the Desire God.
Chu Yi had his doubts at first, but then he reached out and pulled Lady Radiant Moon into his arms. She did not resist, her skin pressed against his, her silver eyes full of shame and anger, as one hand prepared to grasp him.
Smack!
Chu Yi turned his hand to suppress her, a thought flashed as the candle flame went out.
Amidst the rustling sounds, garments and jewels were tossed aside. In the tranquil darkness, two shadows intertwined like serpents, colliding, bending, and undulating.
The sun and moon merged, icy, bone-chilling moonlight entwined with domineering fiery warmth, unleashing waves of frightening energy.
The entire palace trembled, yet was shrouded by a layer of gray-white mist, concealing all motion and sound.
…
Moon God's Carriage.
Main Hall.
The Moon Princess read the big news from the Beast Taming Realm, where a Sun God had appeared out of nowhere, reclaimed mighty power, annihilated the three Overlord taboos in an instant, and made a name for himself worldwide.
"He is this powerful even in the Moonlight Realm?"
The Moon Princess was astonished; her plan to imprison her husband and suppress him daily had to be delayed, preferably with her mother's help to jointly suppress him.
She gazed at her reflection, a young girl with lavender hair in twin-tails, only about twelve years old, of cold and chaste unrivaled beauty. Part of her mighty power was given to her mother, leaving her younger.
With Mom monitoring her, she wasn't free to cultivate with Chu Yi at will.
"I wonder how Chu Yi's negotiations with Mom are going."
Suddenly.
A sharp pain came abruptly, as if her body were splitting apart, more painful than the first time she blazed a new path.
"Something's gone wrong?!"
The Moon Princess endured the numbing pain, because Lady Radiant Moon was smuggled into the present world, borrowed her part of mighty power to resurrect, and since the Moon God's descendant merges with moonlight, they were as one, even in perception.
But upon recalling the forbidden knowledge from Lady Radiant Moon, not leaving no matter what happened, she immediately contacted her mother with mighty power.
"Mom, how are things on your side?"
"...Oh, I'm... imparting... ancient forbidden... knowledge..."
"Mom? Are you okay?"
"Forbidden... pollution... relax... speak!"
With time flowing ten times faster, Lady Radiant Moon's words were rapid even as she gasped.
"I understand, I'll meet you in a moment."
"No!"
Lady Radiant Moon grasped the hanging light muslin tightly, the shadows under the true sun flames twisted and writhed.
Her cheeks flushed, starry eyes confused, fragrant words intermittently escaped her red lips, as Chu Yi acted at will.
As the Moon Princess was puzzled, the words from the other side arrived.
"Forbidden... dissipating..."
"Good."
The Moon Princess didn't know what it meant, quietly waiting, allowing the familiar strange sensation to brush over her entire body, just like cultivating with Chu Yi.
Suddenly.
She missed him intensely.
…
The courtyard bloomed with moon pear blossoms.
Several charming ghost maids drifted around the palace, handling various materials.
Within the palace, the corridors were strewn with skirts and profound robes, moonlight poured like water, reflecting the bright moon embedded in the palace ceiling.
Inside the room.
Silver threads scattered across the bed, as the brewing thunderstorm in the clouds stirred, drifting and falling.
Chu Yi lay on the bed, his cultivation so satisfying, he was nearly delirious.
Lady Radiant Moon still had much to learn about dual cultivation, so he could only guide her, just as with the Moon Princess, teaching by example, experiencing the joy of cultivation together.
By the way.
He also received a forbidden knowledge.
The path to ascend from the Moon God.
Lady Radiant Moon was once a near-legend of the Moon God Royal Court. This forbidden knowledge should have been lost with her demise, buried in the river of history.
Even if found and unearthed later, it would have lost its mighty power, essentially expired and ineffective.
But Lady Radiant Moon smuggled into the present world, and Chu Yi listened, preserving this forbidden knowledge within himself, later passing it to the Moon Princess, secretly ascending to legend while carrying certain legendary taboos.
At this moment.
After handing over this forbidden knowledge, Lady Radiant Moon's face was rosy, her delicate body softened and boneless, utterly exhausted.
Producing ten yin-yang runes, Chu Yi caressed her hair, silently marveling at the indefensible power of desire, given the characteristic of the Moon God's descendant, infecting one another.
Wait a minute.
The Moon God's descendant was born from the Moon God's mighty power; if the Seed of Desire were fully transmitted, wouldn't that mean creating a Moon God's harem?
Could it really be so absurd?
Chu Yi caressed musingly while contemplating, indeed, it was a possibility.
This was the weakest period in the Moon God Royal Court's history. If he leveraged the Book of Destiny, it could truly be possible to capture all Moon God's descendants and become the master of the royal court.
No, I'm an upright gentleman, how could I... huh, that's exactly how I was born!
With something to look forward to, and after learning Chu Yi's baseline was nearly invisible, if he could rule over the royal court, then why not?
When Lady Radiant Moon was fully dressed, snow-colored pupils kept scrutinizing Chu Yi.
Her delicate face was rosy, deep down wishing to execute the man.
Yet for some reason, beside the anger, a strange feeling emerged, considering now he was engaged with Eris and had done such an unspeakable thing.
What a...
Remarkable feeling.
"Lady, given the situation, I can't pretend nothing happened, it's unfair to you."
Chu Yi embraced Lady Radiant Moon's waist, adopting a cynical tone: "I'll marry both you and Eris."
He no longer called her mother, directly calling her lady.
This rascal indeed had eyes on this mature grace of the royal court lady since their first encounter.
Lady Radiant Moon bit her lips lightly, yet felt no disgust, suppressing the dissatisfaction, she replied coolly:
"We'll talk after the royal court is rebuilt."
She didn't refuse, so I'll take that as consent.
Chu Yi smiled, holding Lady Radiant Moon's soft hand, walked out of the palace, strolling in the garden with drifting pear blossoms, plotting his plan to ascend to the Moon God Royal Court.
The stroll was both to digest a delightful meal for Chu Yi and to let Lady Radiant Moon gradually accept this complex relationship.
White pear blossoms fluttered, their fragrance floating.
Lady Radiant Moon lifted her gaze, sweeping a glance at this young man, even after a thousand years of stormy experiences in the royal court, she couldn't deny his... perfection.
She actually considered, if she were the age of the Moon Princess, perhaps she would truly be captured by Chu Yi.
