Luo Yu lowered his head, bringing his face close to Tang Yuehua in his arms.
Their lips were almost touching.
He smiled slightly, radiating a charming allure.
"Yuehua, my appearance isn't too bad, is it?"
Tang Yuehua's beautiful eyes were fixated on Luo Yu with fascination.
So entranced that she seemed lost in him.
She swallowed her saliva involuntarily.
"You call this 'not too bad'?"
"Are you teasing me because I haven't seen much of the world?"
"I've been managing Yuexuan for so many years, seen so many high-class elites, and I've never seen anyone as handsome as you, okay?"
Luo Yu reached out and pinched Tang Yuehua's peachy, pert bottom beneath her cheongsam.
"If you keep praising me like this, I'll start feeling shy."
Tang Yuehua didn't speak, but her beautiful eyes shimmered with light.
The breath she exhaled was somewhat disordered.
With both hands, she held Luo Yu's cheeks and took the initiative to offer her cherry lips.
After the kiss, Luo Yu noticed that Tang Yuehua suddenly seemed worried.
"What's wrong, Yuehua? Are you troubled by something?"
Tang Yuehua sighed, "I suddenly realized that having a husband too handsome isn't a good thing."
"Even without showing his face, my man could gather a bunch of fangirls just with his talent."
"And if he showed this face, with this temperament, I'm afraid taking a walk on the street would attract a flock of vixens within minutes."
"Wouldn't I be worried every day?"
Luo Yu's fingers traced Tang Yuehua's elegantly indented collarbone.
"What's there to fear? Can those crude and common women outside compare with our Yuehua at home?"
Upon hearing her lover's praise, Tang Yuehua's eyes curved, revealing a smile.
The arc of her red lips being raised displayed the charm of a distinguished lady.
"Those cheap and seductive women outside obviously don't scare Yuehua."
"But there are some women on the continent whose beauty and temperament are no less than Yuehua's."
"For example?" Luo Yu asked with a smile. "Give me an example."
Tang Yuehua placed her finger on her lips, as if in deep thought.
"For instance, Empress Bibi Dong from the Martial Soul Hall, I've seen her once; her temperament and looks are truly beyond words, even better than mine."
"If she were to come and seduce you, I wouldn't have any confidence."
"Cough cough."
Luo Yu coughed twice.
"What's wrong, Brother Yu?"
"Nothing, just that when you said that, some images popped into my head."
"What images?" Tang Yuehua said oddly, "You're not imagining the Empress trying to seduce you, are you?"
Before Luo Yu could speak, Tang Yuehua rolled her eyes and said, "I was just joking a moment ago, don't take it seriously."
"With the status of the Empress, why would she demean herself to compete with me for a man?"
"Uh—"
Luo Yu's expression suddenly became very animated.
He really wanted to say, congratulations, you guessed right.
But now was not the time to bring up these matters.
"Yuehua."
"If, I mean, if,"
"If one day the Empress really did come to seduce me, what would you do?"
"Giggle giggle."
Tang Yuehua laughed, her lips pursed.
"Brother Yu, I was just making a joke, why did you take it seriously?"
"I heard through the grapevine that the Empress might not even like men."
"I'm not trying to bring you down, but seducing Yuehua is easy; conquering the Empress is as hard as reaching the heavens, almost impossible."
"But what if, I mean what if one day the Empress came to compete with you for a man?" Luo Yu probed.
Caressing the man's face lovingly with her hand, Tang Yuehua said,
"Alright, Brother Yu, life is short, wouldn't it be better to cherish Yuehua properly now? Stop daydreaming. If you keep mentioning other women, I might get jealous, you know."
Luo Yu hesitated, "Yuehua, let's lay it all out on the table."
"In fact, the Female Pope is already my woman now."
Tang Yuehua was stunned.
Luo Yu became somewhat nervous, "Yuehua, let me explain."
Two jade fingers touched his lips.
Tang Yuehua shook her head with a smile, "Brother Yu, no need to explain, Yuehua knows you're joking with me."
"If I hadn't seen Bibi Dong's aura myself, I might have believed you."
"I'm guessing you've never met Bibi Dong in person, Brother Yu."
"With my experience of living for so many years, that woman, in my feeling, cannot be tamed by any man in the Mortal Realm, whether it's in terms of power, looks, or intelligence, she has reached the peak of mortals."
"She is unattainable."
"I..." Luo Yu was about to speak but Tang Yuehua interrupted him.
"Brother Yu, if one day you really manage to win over Bibi Dong, Yuehua won't be jealous; instead, I'd admire your capability. By then, what's the problem with being a little sister."
"You really mean that?" Luo Yu asked.
"Pfft."
Tang Yuehua laughed.
"Look at you, all serious, as if the Empress is already yours."
"Do you have any idea how many Titled Douluo and stronger warriors in the whole Soul Land secretly admire Bibi Dong, yet they don't even have the courage to strike up a conversation with her?"
"I think I can do it," Luo Yu said.
"Maybe in the future you can, but probably not right now."
Tang Yuehua was encouraging with her words, but actually, she didn't have the heart to crush Luo Yu's spirits.
A personage like the Female Pope, I fear, has long looked beyond the affairs of men and women.
She is completely focused on her quest for domination and would hardly care for romance.
"By the way, Brother Yu, you previously mentioned that you disguised yourself to evade your enemies. Who are they?"
Luo Yu shook his head.
"Let me handle this myself; it's better if you don't get involved."
"No way!" Tang Yuehua immediately stiffened her pretty face.
"I, Tang Yuehua, am a traditional woman. Since I've decided you are my man, then you are my world."
"If someone wants to harm you, how can I, as your little wife, stand for it?"
Looking at her earnest and fervent eyes, Luo Yu deeply sighed.
"Forget it, Yuehua."
"Really, don't ask."
Tang Yuehua immediately sat up from Luo Yu's embrace, straightened out the wrinkles in the flesh-colored stockings on her beautiful legs with her slender hand, and then frowned at him seriously.
"Brother Yu, just tell me who your enemy is."
"Leave the rest to me; I'll make sure they regret it."
"Although my Martial Soul is inherently flawed and not strong in battle, I am a woman with a background. My brother Tang Xiao is the current Sect Master of the Hao Tian Clan, and he listens to me the most."
"I want to see just who dares to make my man so distressed."
"I can't swallow this grievance until they're dealt with."
Luo Yu revealed a look of surprise.
Tang Yuehua usually had a gentle and virtuous demeanor, but now she seemed like an angry lioness, with her heart and soul set on protecting her man.
Luo Yu tried to dissuade her, "Yuehua, there are some things that you're better off not knowing."
"You just need to tell me who it is that's causing you trouble; you don't have to worry about scaring me. Yuehua will always stand by your side."
Luo Yu took a deep breath.
"I encountered a young man before whose crush liked me, and he became jealous and provoked me several times, so I gave him a beating."
"Then his dad came out and vowed to kill me."
"Well done!" Tang Yuehua huffed, "It serves that sore loser right to be beaten. If he were any good, why would the girl he has a crush on run away from him?"
"His father is also quite shameless, getting involved in the fight between the young. That's just sore losing, bullying the weak with strength, it's crystal clear shamelessness."
"Yuehua, it's enough that I reprimand them—you don't need to," Luo Yu said.
Tang Yuehua pursed her red lips, "Why can't I reprimand them? I want to!"
Luo Yu sighed, "Because one of them is named Tang Hao, and the other is called Tang San."
"What?"
Tang Yuehua's beautiful eyes widened in shock, and her lips parted in astonishment.
Her tone changed.
"You're saying that shameless old man is Tang Hao?"
