Chapter 499: Advancing to A-Rank Asleep

A few hours later, Bloed was lying on the sofa with Liu Ying on him. He was stroking her hair as she told him about her encounter with Mu Quan.

After listening to the entire story, Bloed looked at Liu Ying with an amused smile.

"Silly girl."

"Ouch! Why did you hit my head!?"

"To see if your brain is still there, silly." Bloed chuckled and kissed her lips, making her blush.

"I'm not an idiot." Liu Ying pouted and bit Bloed's chest, making him hiss in pain and glare at Liu Ying.

When Liu Ying saw his fierce expression, she giggled and licked the bite, before kissing his lips softly.

" It looks like you think that agreeing to Mu Quan's proposal is a bad idea. Why is it?"

"It's so obvious. Only a foolish girl like you would not notice it. Firstly, how do you know you can trust him. He could be leading you to a trap."

Liu Ying hesitated and nodded. "I know it, but he doesn't need to go so far if he wants to harm me, right? Just telling the current demon king about my whereabouts is enough. Plus, I know a bit about the Mu Family. They have indeed been loyal to my family for generations."

"That is only if he wants to kill you. But what if he has another goal. What if his goal is to make you give birth to a child and then use him to fight for the throne. That way, the Mu family can become the rightful heirs to the throne."

Liu Ying was stunned. She had not thought about it.

Bloed sighed when he saw her reaction.

"That is just one possible reason. There are a lot of reasons why they could be doing this. As for the fact that they have been loyal to your family? Loyalty is something that can change easily, especially if there is something as big as the throne at risk."

Liu Ying thought about Bloed's words and nodded.

But even considering that, it was not enough to state that agreeing to Mu Quan's suggestion was foolish. After all, it was normal to take some risk if she wanted to accomplish something so difficult like avenging her family.

After voicing her doubts, Bloed rolled his eyes.

"That is why I told you it's foolish. Why should you agree to his suggestion when there is a much better option available?"

"Huh?"

"Didn't I promise to you that I would help you to avenge your family? Liu Ying, with our talent, it's just a matter of time before we become peak demigods. By then, my [Molecular Disintegration] and your [Silent Touch] would make us unrivaled in the entire world.

"There is also Regina, who is already extremely strong, and my sister, whose talent is even greater than ours. Will avenging your family be difficult after the four of us become peak demigods? Who will be able to stop us then?"

"That is"

"Could it be that you are not confident in our talent? Or is your hatred so strong that you can't wait a few years to avenge your family?"

Liu Ying's expression became dazed. But soon, her eyes became bright, and her expression became firm.

" It looks like I'm really a foolish girl."

Bloed stroked her hair and kissed her forehead.

"It's good that you understand now. I must thank Mu Quan, though. Thanks to him, I finally managed to eat you whole."

Liu Ying became completely red. Feeling Bloed's strong arms around her waist and seeing his bright blue eyes staring straight at her, she became shy.

Now that her passion had cooled down a bit, she was very embarrassed about her actions. She could not believe she took the initiative to have intercourse with Bloed.

She closed her eyes and hid her face on Bloed's chest to escape from her embarrassment, making him laugh and kiss her head lovingly.

At that moment, Liu Ying thought that if every day was like this, it would be very nice.

Hugging Bloed like this made her feel very safe and peaceful.

Perhaps due to it, Liu Ying soon became sleepy. She had gone through several emotional up and downs today, plus, after that, she 'fought' with Bloed for several hours, so she was exhausted.

Feeling the warmth of her lover, Liu Ying fell prey to sleepiness.

When Bloed realized that Liu Ying had fallen asleep, he smiled softly.

He stood up carefully and made sure to not wake Liu Ying up, before finding a blanket and using it to cover her.

It was not uncommon for him to sleep inside the lab when he was busy with his experiments, so Regina had prepared a few blankets for him.

Just after he covered Liu Ying with the blanket, he felt a presence behind him.

In the next second, a pair of slender arms hugged him from behind.

" Master." Regina breathed on his ear.

Bloed put on a bitter smile. He did not need to turn around to notice that Regina was frowning right now.

"Are you jealous?" He asked in an amused tone.

"A little." Regina did not deny it. "I can't monopolize master anymore. I admit that I'm feeling a bit upset."

"Just a bit?"

" Okay, very upset. But I already accepted Liu Ying. I will get used to it after a few days."

"That is good." Bloed sighed in relief. He would hate it if Regina and Liu Ying don't get along. "By the way, you were listening to us the entire time, right?"

"T-That is"

"I'm not blaming you, okay? I just want to ask you what you think about Liu Ying's situation."

Regina furrowed her brows. "Does master mean Mu Quan's intentions?"

"Yes. I'm worried about it."

"Unfortunately, I don't know. But regardless of if he is an enemy or an ally, it's not good for us."

"Oh? Why is that?"

"Right now, the situation of Academy City is very bad. The demons learning about Liu Ying at this point in time will make the mess bigger."

"My thoughts are the same." Bloed sighed with a complicated expression. "It looks like leaving Liu Ying in the city is not an option. We can't give the demons an excuse to wage war against Academy City."

"Master, do you mean?"

"Yes, we are taking Liu Ying with us."

Just at that moment, the pair felt a disturbance in the mana nearby.

Surprised, the pair looked in Liu Ying's direction, only to see a vortex of mana forming around her.

The pair of master and servant looked at each other with stunned expressions.

"This girl"

Liu Ying had advanced to A-Rank while sleeping.
