Chapter 189: 86 This is really interesting! (Please subscribe)_3

The divine power of the Primordial Spirit exhibited by the Queen of South Ming, just as it approached, before even touching Cheng Guang's Primordial Spirit, was dispersed by the active protection of the Heavenly Silk Clothing.

The Queen of the South Ming's eyes showed a trace of surprise, and she was momentarily stunned.

Staring blankly at Cheng Guang.

Clearly, she had not anticipated that Cheng Guang could defend against her Soul Attack.

The Queen of the South Ming surmised that Cheng Guang might possess some Different Treasure that allowed him to temporarily be immune to attacks on his Primordial Spirit. Although this tactic had failed this time, the Queen was not in a hurry.

She knew that even if Cheng Guang had just been immune to her Soul Attack, it was not certain he would notice anything.

Soul Attacks are extremely secretive, not detectable by Spirit Dao cultivators or highly advanced cultivators, let alone defended against.

Cheng Guang was merely a man of substantial family resources, possessing a treasure that could defend against Soul Attacks. It was already impressive that he could defend against her attack, but the chance that he would realize she had just made a move was almost nonexistent.

Thus, even though her attack had failed, the Queen of the South Ming was not alarmed. She slightly shifted her body, picked up her teacup, and began to savor it carefully.

At this moment, she pondered over how to deal with the Town-Nation Duke's Heir.

This Town-Nation Duke's Heir had far more cunning than she had imagined; it was impossible to extract any information from him. The Devil Clan's smuggling location certainly hadn't been revealed by the clan itself; the only possibility might be that the Town-Nation Duke's Heir had discovered it himself.

Even if the Queen of South Ming found it hard to believe at the moment, that was the only piece of information available to her now.

The failure of her technique, combined with her guess that Cheng Guang might have some treasure to defend against Soul Attacks, meant that she couldn't make another move for now.

If she made too big a gesture and attracted the attention of the other Martial Cultivation experts within Duke Zhen's Mansion, she would have a hard time explaining herself.

Her cultivation in Spirit Dao had always been deeply concealed.

In public, she always appeared to be a weak woman without any cultivation.

It was only because she was facing Cheng Guang that she would take such a bold action; she would not do so with others.

The Queen of South Ming sighed. If only she had succeeded just now, perhaps Cheng Guang would already be at her mercy.

The Queen of South Ming sipped her tea while contemplating, her beautiful eyes occasionally flashing an unfathomable luster.

During her contemplation, she failed to notice that Cheng Guang, who had been watching her, had also begun to reveal a faint, amused smile on his lips.

The Queen of South Ming, a member of the royal family...

Could she be related to the Crown Prince?

Hehe...

The situation was gradually becoming more interesting.

From the strength of the Primordial Spirit revealed by the Queen's recent actions, her royal bloodline appeared to be quite dense, and her Spirit Dao cultivation had at least reached the sixth-grade Enlightenment Realm, more than three grades higher than his.

It seemed she had been cultivating the Spirit Dao for a considerable time.

What followed was a strange silence between the two.

Initially, the Queen of the South Ming worried about Cheng Guang possibly doing something out of line while they were alone. If Cheng Guang saw her seemingly without any cultivation and could not control himself, she would have a legitimate reason to teach him a lesson.

But to her surprise, while Cheng Guang seemed particularly lustful, his actions were virtually non-existent.

At most, he would just look.

No response from... other places.

The Queen of South Ming even wondered if this Town-Nation Duke's Heir was incapable.

Ordinary men would show an unsightly state at just a glimpse of her, bending their waists quickly to avoid revealing too much.

But Cheng Guang did not.

Truly curious.

While the Queen of South Ming was perplexed, she didn't probe further. Without being able to extract anything in the open and unable to use other methods, she could only wait until she returned to make other plans.

She had already left a Primordial Spirit mark on Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke's Heir, and there were plenty of ways to deal with him later on.

As the Queen of South Ming was musing, she noticed that Cheng Guang was still eyeing her body. Can't get enough?

Or should I just strip naked for you to take a good look?

The Queen of South Ming's brows inadvertently knitted together; she was already planning to rise and leave.

But Wu Yuemei had already gone to prepare the Yurong Cake she wanted to eat, even personally cooking it. No matter how much the Queen wanted to leave, she couldn't do so just yet.

She had to at least eat a cake before leaving; otherwise, it would seem too disrespectful to Wu Yuemei.

As the seconds ticked by, Wu Yuemei soon returned, followed by several maidens, carrying a plate of exquisitely made, translucent cakes that looked like pearls.

As Wu Yuemei returned with the Spirit Food, a delectable aroma filled the hall, stimulating the appetite of even the most ordinary people.

Even if he wasn't very hungry, Cheng Guang was enticed by the Yurong Cake in Wu Yuemei's hands.

He hadn't known Wu Yuemei had such culinary skills, having never tasted her cooking during the long time he'd been at Duke's Mansion.

Wu Yuemei first offered a plate of Yurong Cakes to the Queen of South Ming, "Ming Xian, please try them. I'm not sure if they will suit your taste. It's been many years since I've made these."

As she spoke, she then handed another plate to Cheng Guang.

"Guanger, you try them too. Your mother's skills were all learned from your imperial grandmother, and I haven't used them much over the years."

Cheng Guang took the Yurong Cake and after tasting a bite, he found it really delicious, soft and sticky, with a hint of sweetness.
