LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Jun pretended not to understand Lyvia’s words.

He stopped, turned around, and sure enough, Lyvia followed.

Jun questioned, “What did you say?”

Lyvia seemed puzzled, asking, “Who was standing outside, listening to Jenny and me in the corner?”

Jun continued to feign ignorance, “I still don’t understand.”

Lyvia scoffed, “Such behavior!”

Jun looked at Lyvia for a moment, then suddenly reached out and pinched her chin, saying seriously, “Are you acting up?”

Lyvia’s face flushed.

With her hands behind her back, Jun walked up to Lyvia and asked, “What, are you misbehaved?”

Lyvia’s expression was a mix of annoyance and amusement, her cheeks even redder.

Jun asked again, “Who were you talking about just now? Who was misbehaved?”

Lyvia bit her lower lip, annoyed, “Am I misbehaved? You’re really lucky to have me as your good wife!”

Jun questioned, “Are you saying I’m not good? I’m not deserving?”

Lyvia finally couldn’t resist, annoyed, “Oh, there are people around! Stop behaving so indecently!”

Jun still looked puzzled, “I just pinched your chin, didn’t touch you anywhere else, and we already have children. Tell me, am I indecent?”

Lyvia stared, “You are! You’re very decent!”

Jun finally stopped teasing Lyvia, let go of her chin, and said, “Tonight, go find a secluded spot in the forest.”

Lyvia panicked, “Why?”

Jun replied, “I’m informing you, not asking for your opinion.”

Lyvia huffed, “I see you’re always thinking about that when you see me, nothing else.”

Jun frowned, “Should I accompany you and chat? But what to chat about? We’ve been married for so many years, haven’t we talked enough?”

Lyvia was speechless.

Jun continued, “Besides, didn’t you just say to someone else? You like to watch people do things, not listen to them speak! Now that I’m with you, I just can’t get enough done. Aren’t you satisfied?”

Lyvia had nothing to say.

Just then, Jenny suddenly walked out of the Temple of the Martial God, holding a scroll, the unfinished map of the Island of the Five Emperors that Lyvia had been working on.

Notably, at this moment, Jenny appeared much more dignified than before.

She approached Lyvia from behind and said, “I’ve made up my mind.”

Lyvia immediately regained a look befitting a lady of the Chester Ancient Clan, turned to Jenny and asked, “And then?”

Jenny took a deep breath and said softly, “I’ll follow you.”

Lyvia glanced at the map in Jenny’s hand and instructed her, “Take your time to finish this map.”

Jenny responded, “My style is different from yours.”

But Lyvia replied, “We’ll gradually synchronize.”

Jenny pursed her lips and softly agreed, “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Lyvia didn’t look at Jenny anymore but turned to Jun and asked, “What are you going to do next?”

Jun calmly stated, “The envoy from the Island of the Five Emperors may arrive tomorrow, I’ll continue waiting here.”

At this point, Jun remembered something, took out two Millennium Flame Essences from his pocket, and added, “I’ve obtained the Millennium Flame Essence. Take these two items, grind one into powder, mix it with Millennium Frost Essence, blend it with the juice of the Tianluo grass, then apply the resulting ointment all over my mother’s body.”

Lyvia asked, “The whole body?”

Jun nodded, “The whole body.”

Lyvia inquired, “Do I need to control the amount when blending it?”

Jun answered faintly, “No need.”

Lyvia then took the Millennium Flame Essence and headed toward the Deer-Cutting Forest.

But just then, Jun reminded her, “Don’t forget about tonight’s matter.”

Upon hearing this, Lyvia nearly tripped over her own feet in surprise.

Jun, however, acted as if nothing had happened and turned to Jenny, saying, “Why are you still standing there? Aren’t you supposed to follow her? Go assist her.”

Jenny hesitated but ultimately didn’t say anything else.

However, after a few steps, Jenny suddenly turned to Jun, blushing, and said, “The tattoo on my body will hide itself in three hours.”

Jun was stunned and asked, “And then?”

Jenny was embarrassed and caught up with Lyvia without saying a word.

As soon as Jenny caught up with Lyvia, she heard Lyvia say abruptly, “With age comes experience, and you’re good at playing dumb!”

Jenny snorted, “I didn’t expect you to be so dignified in front of me, but then you would act so ignorant in front of him!”

Lyvia shrugged, “This is the demeanor between husband and wife, you don’t understand.”

Jenny retorted, “I do! I just don’t have the opportunity!”

Lyvia smirked, “Doesn’t seem like it.”

Jenny blushed, “Someday, I’ll show you what it means to let the fox into the henhouse!”

Lyvia countered, “Are you the fox? If I’m not mistaken, you’re ten years older than him. You’re almost forty, thirty-eight, so in two years, you’ll be a tigeress. But I like to turn tigresses into obedient little kittens!”

Jenny scoffed, “Twisted taste!”

Lyvia teased, “You’re going to bite me?”

Jenny felt defeated.

She couldn’t argue or fight.

How would she face the days ahead?

Just as the two women were bickering, a woman in the square ahead noticed Lyvia.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

The woman was none other than Elsa.

At that moment, Elsa was still under the platform, cheering for her son Han.

Seeing Lyvia here, accompanied by Jenny, Elsa was astonished.

But soon, Elsa also noticed Jun approaching from the same direction.

Elsa didn’t know what had happened at the Temple of the Martial God, nor that Jun was the patriarch of the Zhenwu Sect who had suppressed so many heroes in the square earlier!

Elsa’s surprise was apparent on her face.

Why was Jun still alive?

Wasn’t he dead at the Temple of the Five Emperors?

What was going on?

At that moment, Lyvia and Jenny had already approached Elsa.

Elsa immediately turned her attention from Jun to Lyvia and scolded, “Lyvia! Stop right there!”
