…
At that moment in Zu An’s room, Tushan Yu said with a red face, “Young master, I don’t even know how to face them tomorrow…”
She was a country’s lord, after all. She had come to a man’s bed in the middle of the night, and had even been caught while roleplaying. Just the thought alone was embarrassing.
Zu An chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, she didn’t recognize you. She thought you were a different person because of the clothes you’re wearing.”
Tushan Yu’s eyes widened. She replied, “There’s actually something as magical as that?”
Zu An was about to explain when his expression froze. Why is another one here?
“Brat, why did that stone cold woman run away with a red face? Did you do something… to her…?” a loud but pleasant voice called out. Yun Jianyue was standing in the entrance, but she saw the scene inside halfway through her sentence and immediately froze up.
Zu An was about to reply when Yun Jianyue raised her hand to stop him, saying, “There’s no need to explain anything. I understand. Sorry for disturbing you.”
She also turned around to leave after saying that. No wonder that stone cold woman had that kind of reaction! Turns out she ended up running into a couple’s passion!
Hmph, that Yu Yanluo really is cunning. She pretended to be with us on the surface, and yet she snuck over here.
…
Zu An chuckled bitterly when he saw her leave. Looks like I have to be careful tomorrow. If Yu Yanluo is exposed, I’ll definitely be in big trouble.
After closing the door again, he said to Tushan Yu, “There’ll be problems if we stay here. Who knows, someone else might show up. Why don’t we go to your room instead?”
Tushan Yu bit her lips and said in a troubled manner, “When I visited you, I came with my trusted aides. They’re trustworthy and won’t leak any information. But if you go to my room, there are all types of people and forces watching. We might not be able to keep it a secret then.”
Zu An didn’t want the entire city to know about what was happening. As he was trying to think of a different place where they wouldn’t be disturbed by anyone,his eyes suddenly lit up. He remembered the spoils of war he had gotten from Chi Wen. He hadn’t had the time to test those things out yet. Wasn’t now a great opportunity?
As such, he took out the flame wheels. After properly making them his own artifacts, he tried to stand on them. Even though the Wind Fire Wheels burned fiercely with flames, they weren’t hot to stand on at all, likely because he had already made them his.
He couldn't find his balance at first, but he quickly got used to it. He had tried segways before; the feeling was similar.
Next to him, Tushan Yu exclaimed in shock, “This is a heaven-grade weapon?” As a country’s lord, she at least had a bit of knowledge.
Zu An nodded. He reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist. Then, he flew out of the window. Once they left the room, he rushed straight into the sky. At first, they could still see Bluefield Palace, but soon afterward, there were only lights left. Eventually, even the lights disappeared, as they quickly rose above the clouds.
Zu An was excited. Even though he could fly for some time by relying on his own cultivation, compared to the Wind Fire Wheels, it was lacking in both speed and altitude.
“Ah!” Tushan Yu jumped in fright, her face incredibly pale. After all, she wasn’t a grandmaster[1] and had never flown so high. If she fell down from here, she might instantly turn into a bloody paste.
“Don’t be afraid; I’m here to protect you.” Zu An said to comfort her.
Tushan Yu gradually calmed down when she heard the gentleness in his voice. Then, her fear was replaced by novelty. So flying has this kind of sensation! There are so many clouds around us…
Just then, Zu An stared into her eyes and asked, “Was the reason why you weren’t willing to go to your room because you didn’t want Hu Qianxiao to know?”
