Chapter 199 Bad Timing
"Sire..."
"Stay here with Bai Yu, protect my consort." In between his speech, the natural pitch of Bai Qingyue’s voice turned lower, "Should my mother decide to pay a visit, alert me at once. No matter what must be done, do not allow my consort to come to any harm."
"Of course, Sire."
Thus, Bai Qingyue departed the realm, an entourage of foxes, both spirits, and demi-gods alike hastily followed after their sovereign and rushed into the portal.
Lang Ju remained on the now split mountains, watching as the portal dissipated into thin air a few seconds later.
Long after the crowd had disappeared, from within the shadowy Thousand Beasts Forest which was connected to the now split mountains, slowly came forth a familiar snow fox cub. His furry muzzle had never seemed so sullen before.
Lang Ju turned back to stare at the approaching miserable looking cub, "What’s the matter with you, Second-In-Command?"
"Former Second-In-Command." Bai Yu pointedly corrected the Senior Servant, ignoring Lang Ju’s question.
Lang Ju raised an eyebrow at that but chose not to upset his superior with any further inquiry regarding his condition.
"Right, right..." Lang Ju answered as he went to stand by Bai Yu’s side, peering down at his small furry form, "Say, you follow His Lordship like his own shadow, what made him angrily thunder his way here?"
Bai Yu’s doom and gloom expression slightly lightened up, knowing what it was exactly that made His Lordship’s wrath rise to the surface. How could he not? The musky smell of arousal and the unmistakable moans of Her Ladyship were evident to anyone with a good pair of ears.
His small furry mouth parted as he let out a low snicker, assuming the Fox Lord had, in all likelihood, failed to consummate his marriage, as of yet.
However, Lang Ju took no notice of the minuscule changes in Bai Yu’s expression. He crossed his arms together and pretended to shiver, emphasising his words, "His Lordship’s energy was so potent and vicious that I felt my own hide begin to tear when I approached him!"
"Let’s just say your timing couldn’t have been any worse." Bai Yu concluded the conversation, leaving the confounded Lang Ju puzzled all the same.
