The Distinguished Cute Master Chapter 52

Chapter 52 – The Dragon King's New House

Why must she make things difficult for him? She was making things difficult for him?!

Now, Ji Hongyan was truly angered. She slammed her hands on the table and stood up, glaring at him.

“Ye Chenyuan! Are you still holding a grudge about me giving you the three days soul urging incense? Did you see something you shouldn't have in your dreamscape? Is that why you're venting your anger on me? You stabbed me too, you know!”

It would have been fine if she hadn't said that, but she did. Ye Chenyuan's face turned very ugly. Those three days, those three days…!

Startled to see killing intent appear on Ye Chenyuan's body, Yuan Chu hurried to mediate.

“Young people shouldn't be so impulsive! How about this? I'll take the two of you to Celestial Poles Lake, so both of you stop arguing.”

“Go away! Who'd want to go with you!” Ji Hongyan crossed her arms over her chest and turned around.

Meanwhile, Ye Chenyuan stood up, pulling Yuan Chu along with him. “Let's go. I'll go with you, Brother Yue.”

“What about–”

“I don't know her.”

Ye Chenyuan didn't even look back. He dragged Yuan Chu away, not allowing for any more explanation. She could only look back and smile awkwardly at Ji Hongyan.

Ji Hongyan was about to die from anger because of this unromantic dimwit!

She angrily used her fingers to massage her forehead. She barely resisted the urge to pull out her sword and charge over. Ye Chenyuan was definitely still a fledgling who did not understand things. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so slow!

And this dog pair of men wanted to get rid of her? In their dreams!

With these thoughts in mind, Ji Hongyan gritted her teeth and followed them. She would not let them escape her even if threatened with death. She simply did not believe that she couldn't beat a man!

At the sight of Ji Hongyan following them, Ye Chenyuan had never rejected a person so much in his life. Why did she want to go with him so badly?

Ji Hongyan tossed aside her anger from before and put on another smile. She walked over to Ye Chenyuan, asking him this and that while also using her body to separate him and Yuan Chu. Yuan Chu rubbed her nose. Such a strong smell of jealousy.

Soon, they reached Celestial Poles Lake. There were many people by the lake. Some had gone down into the lake already, and some were still preparing to go. Some people had met with fortuitous encounters, but most returned empty-handed. Yuan Chu recalled that there truly was a small inheritance here that belonged to the male lead. She smiled and said, “There's no time to lose! Let's go!”

Then, she jumped into the water.

Now, Ji Hongyan pulled on Ye Chenyuan. “Look, look, we agreed to go together, but he's so impatient. He obviously covets the treasures! His cultivation is so high, yet he's still so greedy. Let's not go with him. What if we find something good and he tries to kill us for it?”

Ye Chenyuan glanced at her. He pushed aside her hand and jumped in.

Ji Hongyan was infuriated, but she had no choice. She could only jump down after them. That man of unknown origins, she would definitely prove that he harbored evil thoughts!

With the water avoidance pearl, they could travel through the water like fish. This was a strange body of water. There were no fishes or any spiritual beasts or water monsters. Even stranger was, there weren't even any aquatic plants. The farther down they swam, the more clouded the water became. Soon, they couldn't even see each other.

Ye Chenyuan shook Ji Hongyan off and swam towards Yuan Chu. However, his sense of direction was a bit off under the water. Gradually, he seemed to swim towards a place where the water temperature was very icy. Just as he wanted to delve further and explore, someone tugged on his pocket.

He looked back. In the next second, the person pulled him into its embrace.

“Don't go over there…” Yuan Chu's greatly deepened voice tickled his ear. “There's an ice wyrm sleeping there.”

Luckily, her eyes were clear and her hands were swift. This ice wyrm had tried to chase and kill the original male lead, and he accidentally fell into the secret realm. Now, it was better to hide since they still could.

It was a man's voice, but Ye Chenyuan heard a familiar tone within it. He pinched Yuan Chu's hand.

“Okay. I'll listen to you.”

Yuan Chu was immediately worried. Wasn't this young fellow a bit too easy to trick? Fortunately, it was her. Otherwise, what would he do if he encountered someone evil?

Despite this, she led Ye Chenyuan over to a place based on her memories.

Suddenly, they seemed to have broken through a seal. The two descended onto dry land together. They looked up, and the water above them was milky white. The faint silhouette of people swimming back and forth could be seen there. It seemed like they were searching for something but always missed this place.

And the two of them found it so easily.

“Where is this?”

Ye Chenyuan looked around and realized it was like a miniature palace of the dragon king. There were delicate corals and pearls everywhere. They crowded around a small palace. The palace was made of clear, sparkling crystal. It was a feast for the eyes.

“This is…” Yuan Chu thought for a moment. “This is the dragon king's new house.”

At first, when Ye Chenyuan first obtained it, it was something of little value to him. However, Ye Chenyuan received an inheritance here. Afterward, he no longer needed to use the water avoidance pearl in the water. He himself could survive in the water like a fish.

But Ye Chenyuan liked the tiny palace very much now, and he walked towards it.

On the way there, Yuan Chu told him the story behind the palace.

“Legends say, in ancient times, a dragon king who cultivated for thousands of years under the sea prepared a new house in order to marry his beloved wife. This new house was nice to look at, but it didn't have much use. Though, there is a pretty interesting bit.”

Here, she excitedly pulled Ye Chenyuan over to the door of the palace. The door shone brilliantly with a colorful glow, a glimpse of a profound formation occasionally shimmering by.

“See this door? It was said that only one who has truly devoted his heart to someone can open it. And it's also said that there is a mirror behind the door that will show you the person you love the most.”

In their last life, Ye Chenyuan had left the palace in the Sky Pearl after obtaining it because he couldn't open the door and couldn't sense any spiritual treasure within it either.

It was quite strange. Many from the dragon race had a hoarding addiction. That the newlywed would use ordinary materials lacking in spiritual energy was weird.

Ye Chenyuan's heart trembled. He suddenly asked, “What happened then?”

“What happened?” Yuan Chu didn't realize what he meant.

Ye Chenyuan gazed steadily at her. “This new house, why is it here?”

As the dragon king's new house, shouldn't it be in the dragon palace?

“Oh, that's what you're talking about…” Yuan Chu remembered the important parts of a love story, but she always neglected the endings. Now that Ye Chenyuan asked, she rubbed her chin and racked her brain. Finally, she slowly said, “… I think the dragon king was marrying a bride from another ocean region. On the day of the wedding, the two regions were very lively. However, the wedding never happened because, on the way there, the dragon king died.”

She looked up at the exquisite hall in front of her. “Then, this new house which was supposed to be used for the newlyweds' happiness landed here for some unknown reason.”
