Chapter Four, Devour.
You didn't fall in love with Princess Xiling, did you? And you even want to remain chaste for her. Have you not seen how promiscuous she is? She is practically available to anyone. Have you not seen how many men she has married? Such a woman is no different from a prostitute in a brothel, or even worse.
That night, my older brother walked into my room, caressed my face, and said that his daughter was about the same age as me, and she had a cute smile. He spoke with particular tenderness when he said this.
Although I was already eight years old that year, I had been living in the valley since childhood. When I was a little older, I was sent to Kuangfeng Mountain. I had no idea what a prostitute was or what promiscuity meant. However, I could tell that the woman was not treating my brother well because she married another man even though my brother was so good to her. Why wasn't she satisfied?
On that day, my older brother had a fierce argument with Chu Hanjian. He said that I was only eight years old and shouldn't have such a heavy psychological burden.
I will answer that the outside is very beautiful, and my brother will occasionally come back to see me. Speaking of my brother, his eyes are as gentle as the autumn water, and then he murmurs, "When will your brother come back to see your parents?"
When can my parents be brought out? I asked.
Willow tendrils will lead my hand, gently tidying the strands of my hair, asking if I look pretty outside? Have you seen my brother?
When no one is around, Chu Hanjian calls me princess. When there are people around, we address each other as father and daughter. When I was eight years old, I learned that I was a princess of a fallen country and understood why my parents had to live in the valley all their lives. It was because they had blood-red eyes, and whenever they appeared in public, they would be discovered and hunted down. It was only that year that I vaguely understood why they always liked to look up at the sky.
That night, my older brother left in a hurry, without meeting the vampire beauty that Chu Hanjian had prepared for him. Chu Hanjian threw the teapot in the hall into pieces.
I go home once every six months. Every time I return to the valley, my mother will wait for me at the exit early in the morning. She will stroke my head and ask me if practicing martial arts outside is hard or not.
I shake my head, I don't even know where my brother is. In fact, I really miss my brother. I rely on my brother more than my parents. I like my brother's smile when he looks at me. I like the warmth when my brother holds my hand, and the gentleness when he teaches me to play the piano.
Every time I can only stay in the valley for two days. After two days, Chu Hanjian will take me back to Chufu. It is a magnificent mansion, much better than where my parents live. There are many guards and maids inside. When you walk out of Chufu, there are bustling streets with continuous shouts.
I will eventually grow old and die one day. What will happen to our clan when I die? Can the offspring you had with Princess Xiling stand by your side and resist Xiling? Don't forget, half of her blood is from the Xi family. It was the first time I saw Chu Hanjian speak so loudly to my brother, and it was the first time I saw my brother get angry because Chu Hanjian insulted his daughter as a "nongbao".
After my older brother left, Chu Hanjian took me to watch them train for three days. Then I returned to Kuangfeng Mountain and started practicing even harder day and night. I did this not only because I enjoy martial arts, but also because I want to become stronger.
"Nonsense!" The older brother became furious, his handsome face turning red.
In the end, only Leng Lingfeng remained and gave me the most detailed answer. After that day, I had a vague understanding of the matters between men and women, and finally understood why my brother was so angry. My brother cared about Princess Xiling, otherwise why would he be so concerned?
I said it's not bitter, practicing martial arts is very fun.
Chu Hanjian said that he wants all of us in the blood clan to live openly and honestly. Money alone is not enough. We also need someone to stand up and be strong enough to defend the entire group. And that person can only be me, because my brother has never been interested in martial arts since childhood.
Chu Hanjian brought us to see our army. As I looked at the rows and columns of soldiers, I was stunned. It was the first time I had seen so many people. Chu Hanjian said that in two years, when I turned ten, he would hand over the army to me. Their fate would be in my hands. The survival of our tribe would be defended by me. As a young child, I was a little scared.
Do not speak of her in such a way. On that day, my older brother's eyes turned red, like an angry leopard. Chu Hanjian knew that his words and actions had offended, so he knelt down on both knees, but disappointment filled his eyes, while my brother's face was filled with pain.
I know that my older brother is not in a good mood, so I play the piano for him. I play one piece after another, and my brother looks at me in a trance. He says it's a pity that Huan'er doesn't like playing the piano. But my brother doesn't know that in the future, with a little guidance from Cold Lingfeng, Huan'er will play even better than me, because she possesses his spirit and talent.
I asked Leng Lingfeng what "人尽可夫" means? What is "妓|女"? Three men on the mountain looked at me like monsters. Master said he didn't know, Yun shrugged and said I was pretending to be ignorant. Ignorant and still pretending? This guy is really foolish.
Princess Xiling uses her power to force people. I won't blame you for marrying her, as you are a man and cannot resist temptation. If you want her, I can understand, but you must also marry several other vampire women and have offspring.
You can choose not to marry if you find it troublesome. Today, there are more than ten beautiful women in my mansion. You can spend a night with each of them and stay with me for half a month. Only when they become pregnant with your child can you leave. You got Princess Xiling pregnant in just one encounter. I estimate that staying here for half a month, at least three or four of them will become pregnant.
It's almost here, it's almost here. Chu Hanjian said with a smile, but his eyes were dim. He said it would come soon, but it seemed endless.
I am ten years old. When Cold Wind was fifteen, the master expelled me from the mountain. He said he had taught us everything he wanted to teach, and asked us not to linger here and eat up all the fish in his river.
