Chapter 1771: Chapter 1771: You Think I’m Interested in Him?
Is the Immortal Monarch of the Four Seas beautiful?
Beautiful!
However, the Immortal Monarch’s beauty is somewhat different from the typical perception of a woman’s beauty.
In terms of appearance, the Immortal Monarch’s looks are slightly androgynous, not overtly feminine, lacking the coquettish charm of a petite woman. Instead, there’s an air of heroism, grandeur!
Her figure is impeccable, slender where it should be, with prominent curves, the S-curve is very apparent, and her long legs are enough to hold one’s gaze.
Her physique is very womanly, yet her facial features make it hard to view her merely as a woman!
Dignified, majestic!
Like an empress!
Men, when with her, looking into her eyes, would instinctively shrink back, feeling they don’t deserve her or that they don’t want a woman like her.
Which normal man would want a domineering empress-like woman sitting at home?
The Immortal Monarch of the Four Seas is quite clear about herself, which is why she has such an assessment. However, evidently, the Heavenly Alliance Hierarch has pitted himself against her and is desperate to conquer her.
As the Immortal Monarch herself said, he might not truly love her, but he must possess her.
Even if it’s just for a night, even if she submits to him only once, no matter what, this is the result he wants.
The Mountain Master looked at the Immortal Monarch’s face and chuckled, "Alright then, as long as you don’t want it, he won’t dare to do much to you, just be happy."
The Immortal Monarch sneered, "Heh, if not for that, he would’ve already sent someone to capture me onto his bed by now. Do I not know his true nature, putting on that facade in front of me, as if I don’t know what he’s like behind the scenes."
The Mountain Master laughed heartily, "Men always want to maintain their image in front of the women they care about. He’s just not very good at it."
Seeing that the Immortal Monarch seemed disinterested in continuing the topic, the Mountain Master laughed, "This Formation doesn’t need constant attention, just the daily replenishment of energy. Let’s head back."
The Immortal Monarch nodded, said nothing more, and turned to go back to the Cave Mansion with the Mountain Master.
Time flew by, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Immortal Monarch once again stood outside the Formation, looking at Carson Flores, whose figure was barely discernible within.
"How is his situation now?"
The Mountain Master looked at Carson’s silhouette, as if he could see through the Formation, "Very smooth, his potential is not low, he should be about to advance."
The Immortal Monarch nodded without speaking.
The Mountain Master asked again, "This person, I always feel... is it really just to repay a favor?"
The Immortal Monarch replied, "What else?"
The Mountain Master’s eyes flickered, "Though I’ve not interacted with him for long, I feel that between you two, it’s not merely a transaction of interests. Don’t I know you well? For an ordinary person, would you adhere to your promise like this, would you care so much?"
The Immortal Monarch’s expression slightly changed but soon returned to calmness, "He did save my life, repaying a favor, is that wrong?"
The Mountain Master shook his head, "Nothing wrong, I just feel you’re a bit unlike yourself."
The Immortal Monarch turned to look at the Mountain Master, her eyes slightly narrowed, "What exactly are you implying, are you suggesting there’s something romantic between him and me, that I’ve fallen for him?"
The Mountain Master chuckled awkwardly, "How could that be, with your standards, how could you fall for such a young guy, I’m just purely curious."
The Immortal Monarch said flatly, "After he advances, he’ll leave, and we’ll be even, that’s all there is to it."
The Mountain Master nodded, but his gaze turned rather peculiar.
He knew her too well; is she really such a person?
She indeed doesn’t care much about the outside world or social relations, focused only on cultivation, but precisely because of this, she’s not very concerned with the external world. When has she ever cared about someone this much?
Especially when that someone is a man, a handsome, charming young man!
This couldn’t help but make the Mountain Master suspicious, but he couldn’t say much. If he went too far, the Immortal Monarch might flip out and directly start a fight.
For a while, neither of them spoke, just watching the Formation in silence.
"Whoosh!"
The sound of wind arose, and outside the valley, a long rainbow suddenly streaked across the sky towards the Cave Mansion.
Both of them turned their heads simultaneously, their expressions showing vigilance.
The rainbow landed in front of the two, revealing two people: one dressed in striking red clothes, none other than the Red-robed Blood Envoy Maggie Fitzgerald, and a middle-aged man, unremarkable in appearance yet exuding an overwhelmingly intimidating aura.
Maggie’s gaze swept over the faces of the Mountain Master and the Immortal Monarch, her eyes surprised, "Haha, what a coincidence, Immortal Monarch of the Four Seas, you’re here too..."
The Immortal Monarch greeted coldly, "Red-robed, what brings you here?"
Maggie laughed heartily, "I’m here naturally to find the Mountain Master. I’ve privately commissioned him to cultivate a batch of Wild Blood Gu for me. The Wild Blood Gu in my hands is not quite enough."
She paused, staring at the Immortal Monarch, her eyes full of mockery, "Four Seas, you’re just idling here. You should know that the Southern Branch of the Heavenly Alliance you manage has been directly blown apart by the Celestial Palace, right?"
