Chapter 205: Talk with Xiao Meng!
Zhang Yuan, Ming Yuelin, Zhang Fumin, and Xue Hua walked quietly down the hall toward the room where Xiao Meng had been resting since the rescue.
As they entered, they saw Long Xian, Long Yue, and Xiao Meng sitting close together on the bed, their eyes red-rimmed and tear-streaked.
Despite the relief of being together, the weight of the recent past still hung heavily in the air.
However, upon witnessing Zhang Yuan's arrival, they all rose from their beds and bowed their heads.
Zhang Yuan smiled faintly looking at Xiao Meng. "Seems like you are fully recovered."
With a nod of gratitude, Xiao men spoke "Yes, Master Yuan. Thanks to you, I am."
Long Yue hurriedly gestured to the couch for him "Sit here, Master."
Nodding his head, Zhang Yuan sat on the couch and Zhang Fumin sat beside him as Xue Hua took his other side.
Huh? Ming Yuelin was surprised as Xue Hua took her side, but didn't complain and sat next to Xue Hua on the couch.
Since they are newlyweds, she didn't bother them.
Xiao Meng bowed her head to him "Thank you very much, Master Yuan for saving me from there... I just heard about you from Yue'er and Xian."
As Xiao Meng settled back down on the bed, Ming Yuelin leaned forward slightly, her expression one of curiosity and concern. "What happened there, Aunt Meng?" she asked gently.
"Why were you held captive? If you're comfortable sharing… we want to understand."
Xiao Meng's face grew somber, and a sigh escaped her lips, her gaze distant as she looked back on her memories. "Love between a human and a demon is forbidden," she began, her voice barely a whisper.
"And not just any demon… I am from a royal demon lineage. Such unions are seen as… disgraceful."
She hesitated, but Long Xian reached out, squeezing her hand gently, urging her to continue.
Xiao Meng took a deep breath. "From a young age, I was… fascinated by the human world. I'd hear stories about humans.... about their kindness, their resilience."
"During one argument with my brother, I rebelled, a desire to see the world beyond the one I'd known all my life. So, I ran from home and ventured into the Human Domain."
Her gaze softened as she looked at Long Xian "And that's how I met Xian."
"We fell in love and gave birth to Yue'er..."
"But my brother… he found me. He couldn't stand the idea that I, a royal demon, had fallen in love with a human."
"He was furious, determined to punish me for what he saw as a betrayal. He warned me that if I didn't return willingly, he would kill Xian. I had no choice. To protect you…" her voice cracked slightly as she looked at Long Xian and Yue'er.
"I left."
"My brother then put me in home arrest, locking me up in my room and not letting me go outside."
"After years of isolation, my brother finally discovered the truth about Yue'er."
"I don't know how he found out, but once he did, his ambitions grew darker. He spoke of gaining ultimate power, of reaching Sovereignty and perhaps even touching the Immortal realms."
"For that, he needed a powerful sacrifice... someone with the bloodline of both demons and humans. Yue'er was his ideal offering to the Goddess of Death."
"So, he waited all these years for Yue'er to grow up and then awakened her dormant bloodline."
"So that he could kill her later and gain immortality."
As she finished, a tense silence fell into the room.
Long Yue, who had been silently listening with her head bowed, clenched her fists. "Mother, all these years… I grew up hating you, thinking you had abandoned us. But to hear that you were forced to leave… to be kept prisoner…"
Her voice faltered, and she looked away, struggling to hold back her emotions.
Xiao Meng gave her a sad smile. "I'm so sorry, Yue'er. I would have done anything to stay with you and Xian, but I knew the consequences of defying my brother. I thought I could keep you safe by leaving… but I never imagined his obsession would lead to this."
Long Xian, who had been listening with a mixture of sadness and anger, gently gripped her hand, offering a small smile. "Alright, let's not dwell on that anymore," he said softly.
"What matters now is that we're together again… and we have Master Yuan to thank for it."
Xiao Meng glanced toward Zhang Yuan, her expression filled with respect and gratitude. "To think that you destroyed an entire dynasty in just one night…"
She gave a small laugh, almost in disbelief. "I'm actually surprised by the strength you wield, Master Yuan. It seems I can hardly comprehend the depths of your power."
Zhang Fumin raised her chest proudly and wrapped her arm around his shoulder "of course, Yuan'er is so powerful after all."
Ming Yuelin also nodded her head in confirmation.
Xue Hua's face softened and she softly hugged his arm, leaning her head on his shoulder.
This didn't go unnoticed by Ming Yuelin as she frowned 'Junior Sister usually has a stoic smile, but now she is all smiling...'
Ming Yuelin thought with a faint smile. 'It's kind of nice to see her like this.'
Long Yue also glanced at Zhang Yuan and her eyes grew fond in affection looking at his handsome face, a forbidden feeling budding in her heart.
With a slight cough, Long Xian spoke "We really need to throw a royal party for this and enjoy."
At that, Xiao Meng gave a soft giggle, falling into Long Xian's embrace. "I'd love that. After everything, a celebration sounds perfect, Dear."
Long Yue stood up and hurriedly walked to Zhang Yuan.
She gently grabbed his hand and pulled him, making him stand up from his seat "Master, since you are new to this Dynasty."
"Let me show you around."
With a beaming smile, she hugged his arm "Come one, let's gooo Master and sisters you too, you can also join."
Ming Yuelin excitedly stood up "Count me in!"
...
That evening, the palace courtyard was transformed into a grand gathering place, decorated with banners bearing the royal family's colors and symbols.
Soft, warm light from glowing lanterns filled the area, casting a golden hue across the gathered guests.
Musicians played melodic tunes, filling the night air with an elegant, enchanting atmosphere.
Nobles from across the dynasty arrived, eager to celebrate and share in the night's festivities.
As Zhang Yuan entered the courtyard, a quiet hush fell over the crowd.
Beside him were his disciples, each dressed in exquisite garments.
Xue Hua wore a flowing, icy-blue gown that complemented her ethereal beauty, while Ming Yuelin dazzled in a dress the color of the midnight sky, embroidered with silver stars that shimmered as she moved.
Long Yue, standing close beside him, wore a dress of deep crimson, its vibrant color making her stand out.
As the festivities continued, Long Yue took Zhang Yuan by the hand and guided him toward the gardens. "Master, let's take a walk. I'd love to show you the palace grounds," she said, her eyes bright with excitement.
Together with Xue Hua, Ming Yuelin, and Zhang Fumin, they wandered through the gardens, taking in the sights.
The palace grounds were stunning under the starlit sky, with fountains that gleamed under the moonlight and delicate blossoms that filled the air with a sweet fragrance.
The group eventually made their way to a secluded pavilion nestled within the gardens, offering a breathtaking view of the palace and the night sky.
As the night deepened, the royal party continued in full swing.
A group of dancers took to the courtyard, performing a mesmerizing display of movement and grace. Your next journey awaits at empire
The guests watched, captivated by the sight, and Zhang Yuan's gaze softened as he took in the joyful expressions of his disciples.
Xiao Meng and Long Xian joined them, taking their places at the pavilion.
As they sat, Xiao Meng spoke. "This celebration… it wouldn't be possible without each of you."
Long Xian raised a cup, his voice carrying a sense of pride and joy. "To new beginnings, to family, and to the bonds that have brought us together."
They all raised their cups, a quiet sense of understanding passing between them.
As the royal party continued into the night, laughter and music filling the air, Zhang Yuan glanced around, his heart full.
...
*thud*
"After a big party night, it only fir for disciples to please their Master."
Pushing Zhang Yuan on the bed, Ming Yuelin got on top of him and Xue Hua also joined her, as she began to strip Zhang Yuan's robes.
With a soft chuckle, Zhao Tian easily pulled Xue Hua's robes and pulled her closer, burying his face in her fleshy breasts.
Xue Hua smiled and hugged his neck as he opened his lips, licking her nipple.
Meanwhile, Ming Yuelin pulled down his robes and saw his half hardened dick.
With a hungry gaze, she took his cock in her hand and stroked it up and down "Ahhh... Master's majestic cock."
Feeling it getting harder in her palm, she smirked and kissed the tip of his cock.
"My master Is so cute.. Ahhhh!"
