My Boyfriend Is A Dragon-Chapter 195 - Stealing Fortune Away

Bai Wu sat cross-legged on the main seat of the main hall and swirled a cup of tea in his hand. He waited calmly for Xue Feng to begin talking. The wandering deity, Xue Feng, was seated to Bai Wu’s left on the same table and they had vastly different demeanors. Xue Feng was a stern-looking young man, whose anger, if present, was not outwardly displayed; Bai Wu was dignified and proud, with a noticeable domineering quality and solemn austereness.

“I listened to Xue Yin’s side of the story. It was I, that had been too reckless. I am truly sorry.” Xue Feng stood up and bowed respectfully to everyone; with that, he indicated his regret. He then clapped his hands and servant girls entered immediately in a single file with handfuls of goods. Those who survived the previous ordeal were seated at the two sides of the main hall. From the time they entered the dimension, their thoughts had always been focused on surviving. With the sudden respectful treatment, warm tears started to pool in their eyes.

“This is my humble gift. It is not enough to convey my deepest regret toward everyone,” Xue Feng remarked guiltily. He took the gifts from the jade tray and handed them out to everyone.

“There’s no need for those. We can’t use them anyway,” Bai Wu voiced out abruptly. Xiao Feng was just beginning to hand out the Lingzhi mushrooms, but his hands stopped awkwardly in mid-air. He was in a position where he could neither take it back nor give it out.

“Cough cough, perhaps you can keep them for now.” Xu Lan let out a timely cough and remarked. While doing so, he took the Lingzhi mushrooms and once again placed them back on the jade tray. Xue Feng looked at Xu Lan appreciatively, but he did not expect to be glared at by a pair of calm and half-closed red eyes that snapped open wide in an instant.

“Enough with all this. I’d like to ask; how much do you know about Yanyi Village? And also, what’s with the catacomb?” Bai Wu asked. His expression did not seem too pleased; all he wanted was to lock Xu Lan up so that he was the only one who could look at Xu Lan.

“Cough cough, I don’t really know that much. I think it’s better if Xue Yin were to talk about it.” There was a slight change in Xue Feng’s expression. He took a step backward and sat back down on the chair, then tilted his head and replied to Bai Wu.

After Bai Wu was resurrected inside the tomb, he could feel that the remaining poison had been expelled from his body. Previously, he took great care to conceal his dragon might so as not to attract public attention, but that was no longer the case. At that very moment, it was emanating from his person in a steady stream.

Xue Yin pouted when Xue Feng pushed her to center stage. She initially harbored some curiosity toward Bai Wu, but after he ignored her, she felt averse toward him and had an instinctive desire to abhor him.

“What do you want to know? I don’t know much either. My consciousness completely disappeared when Wu Ling turned me into a Gu vessel,” she replied impatiently.

“Regarding Yanyi Village’s inability to bear any male children, does it have something to do with you?” Bai Wu asked sternly, as though he paid no mind to Xue Yin’s curtness.

“… It’s because I stole all their luck.” She answered timidly with a voice that was akin to the humming of a mosquito.

Bai Wu sipped a mouthful of tea. It was elegant, fragrant, and had a delightful aftertaste; it was a good tea, no doubt. His expression of satisfaction caused everyone at the main hall to feel much more at ease; they too lifted their cups and had a drink. Xue Yin noticed that there was not much of a reaction toward her words, so she complied gently.

She was a mortal who practiced cultivation. Due to some reasons, she acquired Dao ¹ and became a deity with no official title. Her young ignorance led her to touch upon some prohibited rules, so she was sentenced to pass through her kalpa ² in the world of mortals as a result. Yanyi Village became the place where she had to pass through it. The initial plan was for it to end when the villagers threw her and left her to die, but little did she know, Xue Feng took a nap, which in turn enabled Wu Ling to save her. She was then secretly turned into a Gu vessel.

With her continued presence in Yanyi Village, Xue Yin continued seizing the village’s luck and fortune, causing the village to be devoid of male babies. All the while, Xue Feng was unable to locate her because she was a lifeless Gu vessel, but when Bai Wu forced out the sexual Gu that was bred using her flesh, Xue Feng was able to track it down.

The whole episode led to the events that followed after.

Prior occasions had seen the group experience demons and ghouls, so a deity was something completely unexpected! Bai Wu frowned and glared at Xue Yin without blinking.
