Chapter 239: Seizing the Green Jade!

The Man-Hunting Insect heard her, and a green glow started to gleam brightly in its eyes.
Although it was only an insect, it had heard much about Hua Qiyue’s deeds. When she fought the Gnawing Devils Sect, it could not yet talk, but it could understand human speech. Hua Qiyue led and was an important personage of the alliance. If she said she would get her green jade back, she would!
On the seventh night, when everyone was asleep, Hua Qiyue watched Tianci sleep for a few moments and gently kissed his forehead. Then, she tiptoed out of the room.
Under the guidance of the Man-Hunting Insect, Hua Qiyue traversed the woods to reach the entrance to Yun Shimo’s cave.
“Is he really inside?”
“Yes. So is Princess Qianyang. Later, I can render her unconscious when she comes out. Madame Yun and Yun Xuan are in the innermost depths of the cave. They usually don’t interfere in Yun Shimo’s life. You can do anything you like. They will not discover you,” the Man-Hunting Insect whispered.
She must find a way to seize her green jade back.
Hua Qiyue would not be like Princess Qianyang, deceived into unknowingly taking Passionless Pills.
“How long will it take for Princess Qianyang to come out?”
“Um, in the past, Princess Qianyang could not take her bath together with Yun Shimo. After taking in his robes, she will emerge,” the Man-Hunting Insect said with a laugh.
At this very moment.
In the bathing pool of the cave, Yun Shimo had taken off his loose, black robe and handed Princess Qianyang two pills. “These are Sedative Pills. Take them, and your sleep will improve!”
But of course, without passion and desires, of course she would improve.
Princess Qianyang took them with a smile, her expression as gentle as before. “Sure, I will take them when I’m out. Immerse yourself in the pool.”
Yun Shimo nodded, slowly immersing his body in the water. He said no more.
Princess Qianyang walked out of the spring cave and arrived outside. She stared at the two Passionless Pills in her hand and began to feel that something was wrong.
She thought, “These two pills don’t smell like those refined by Shimo in the past. Why has my temper changed so much? I still love Yun Shimo, but now I don’t feel like immersing myself in the pool when he does so himself…”
Princess Qianyang was not stupid. She had detected her own change and started to ponder.
“Right now, my sleep’s really good. I will sleep once I lie down. I seem to have no worries. I don’t miss Heaven Sect like in the past, or my mother who loves me… ” Princess Qianyang frowned. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was amiss.
“Although Mother and I haven’t spent much time together, her love is real. I used to feel guilty. Why do I not feel any twinge of guilt now?”
Princess Qianyang stared at the two white medicine pellets in her hand, slowly unsealed her Space Ring, and put them in. She did not take them.
“I’m doing fine now, and don’t need the pills. I won’t tell my husband. Let’s see what change happens to me in the future,” Princess Qianyang thought to herself.
The Man-Hunting Insect noiselessly flitted closer. A faint, silvery ray emanated from the insect’s body, falling upon Princess Qianyang. Her body went limp, falling into a slumber as she leaned against the cave wall.
The Man-Hunting Insect flew out, motioning for Hua Qiyue to enter.
Hua Qiyue was startled. She’d wanted the Man-Hunting Insect to pick up the green jade in its mouth, but now she thought again. If Yun Shimo saw it, the ploy would fail. If she went in instead, Yun Shimo would not guess that it had been the work of the Man-Hunting Insect.
Hua Qiyue tiptoed gingerly inside, walking in the direction of the sound of the water. Soon, she arrived at the front of the interior and poked her head out. She saw an inky robe left on a jade stone chair nearby.
Hua Qiyue poked her head around the corner. Yun Shimo was immersed in the pool, his back toward her.
She glanced at his black robe, remembering the green jade was fastened to his belt. When a person soaked himself for a bath, he would usually undo his belt first, so Hua Qiyue was certain that his belt was the bulge under his robe.
Hua Qiyue slowly condensed the anima energy in her hand. Before coming in, she had hidden her aura. Two colorless Qi streams gushed out from Hua Qiyue’s fingers. She managed to grab hold of the belt and slowly pull it away.
With one glance, Hua Qiyue could see the green jade gourd fastened onto the belt.
Her heart trembled with excitement as the belt and the green jade gourd on it fell into her hands.
Yun Shimo seemed to have overheard the rustlings from his clothing and turned to look. He managed to see Hua Qiyue taking the green jade and was shocked. With a loud splash, he dashed out of the pool after Hua Qiyue without putting his clothes on.
Hua Qiyue was faster. After he’d splashed out of the pool and begun to chase her, completely naked, she executed Mourning Steps and dashed out of the cave well ahead of him!
Although it was night, Yun Shimo did not dare to dash out stark naked! If they had disturbed the others, everyone would see his naked body under the bright moonlight.
“Hua Qiyue! You…” Yun Shimo was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
Yun Shimo quickly ran back and put on his robes, before going after her.
But when he was out again, Hua Qiyue was not in her log cabin or around the back of the mountain. Eventually, Yun Shimo raised his head to look at the mountain peak to see Hua Qiyue sitting quietly.
Yun Shimo executed Mourning Steps and swiftly raced to her. “Hua Qiyue, hand over the jade now!”
Yun Shimo bellowed coldly. He was afraid that Hua Qiyue would really be attracted to that Heaven and Earth Devil. That was why she had stolen from him!
Under the gentle moonlight, Hua Qiyue beamed a gentle smile at Yun Shimo. “Yun Shimo, this jade is mine. It’s none of your business! Hand it to you? If you have the ability, kill me!” Hua Qiyue said, laughing.
Yun Shimo was stunned motionless. He had never seen Hua Qiyue act like this before.
A second later, Hua Qiyue vanished from sight.
Yun Shimo’s expression turned black. He hadn’t expected her to hide inside the gourd! But it was her space gourd and could take her in.
Yun Shimo could no longer even see the green jade gourd. Once Hua Qiyue entered the gourd, it had become invisible.
“Hua Qiyue! Come out right now!” Yun Shimo was so angry that he ground his teeth, cursing her loudly.
It was the first time he had lost his cool and cursed someone. He was so anxious and angry because he worried for Hua Qiyue. After all, the hare had explained in words and deeds that Tianpi was a great devil. Four powerful people from 10,000 years ago had sacrificed their lives to trap him inside.
At this very moment, inside the green jade gourd —
Hua Qiyue was standing dumbly under the clear blue sky. She saw Tianpi sitting there with a disheveled mop of hair. When he saw Hua Qiyue, he was startled, thinking her a hallucination.
Hua Qiyue advanced toward him step by step, her eyes welling with hesitant tears.
Tianpi rubbed his eyes. Since the jade had been stolen by Yun Shimo, he would see Hua Qiyue appear before his eyes every day. Not once was it real.
Tianpi sighed. “I am getting paranoid again!” He patted his head, coldly deriding himself.
Hua Qiyue stopped midstep. Tianpi’s eyes stared unblinkingly at her, his expression full of lust and obsession. And some other things also made Hua Qiyue’s flesh creep…
Hua Qiyue had a big fright. She did not dare to continue pretending. She yelled out, “Master, I am back!”
Tianpi covered his ears. His brows were so furrowed that they met in one tangled mess. “My paranoia’s quite bad. Unfortunately, that divine physician from the past isn’t alive anymore. Otherwise…”
“What paranoia? Master, it’s really me!” Hua Qiyue strode over and patted his shoulder, chuckling.
In a reunion after a long separation, the sentimental will often cry, but Hua Qiyue did not dare to. If she had cried, she would be in trouble, since Tianpi had once warned her against getting close to Yun Shimo. She might get hurt, he said.
If she cried now, that would mean Tianpi’s prediction was entirely correct, that she had been hurt.
Tianpi lifted his brows in surprise. He stretched out his hand to touch Hua Qiyue’s face. “Huh? My paranoia this time’s really serious. The girl in front of me can speak and hit me!”
Hua Qiyue could not endure it any longer. She grabbed his hand and shouted into his ear. “Master! I, Hua Qiyue, am back! It’s not paranoia, it’s real!”
Tianpi widened his eyes in deep shock, staring stupidly at Hua Qiyue.
Poor devil! He had not seen Hua Qiyue for too long.
Hua Qiyue started slapping him lightly on the face several times, and this time Tianpi finally recovered.
“Hua Qiyue, how dare you hit me? You’re looking for death!” Tianpi roared.
He — a 10,000-year old devil, who had soared between the heavens and the earth — was made a nutcase by this young lass.
Tianpi thrust out a palm. Hua Qiyue did not dodge. With a muffled thud, she was thrown away.
Actually, Tianpi did not use much strength in this one palm. Yet Hua Qiyue was still thrown to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. “Master… I know you miss me very much… but you don’t need to be so passionate. You almost killed me!”
Tianpi’s heart started to thump wildly. He forcefully suppressed the impulse in his heart, pretending to walk over to her side naturally. “You’re not dead? If you aren’t dead, get up and apologize to me like a good girl!”
