Although he didn't know what Yang Qing's intentions were, he continued to follow Yang Qing's wishes. He didn't refuse again, but stared at Fei Hong.
Since he had no objections, Hai Pingxin took the initiative to retreat to the back.
The people below were instantly excited.
"Fei Hong, don't let the Grand Commander wait for too long!"
"Don't tell me that serving as the Great Commander's kettle is too much for you?"
"Mama Feng, your Crown Accord is a little too much."
The group of people clearly wanted to put Fei Hong on the fire, wanting to watch the show. Usually, when they wanted Fei Hong to propose a toast, she would tactfully decline. Considering her background, they didn't want to force her. Now that a fearless person had arrived, they wanted to see what Fei Hong would do. Some of them couldn't wait for Miao Yi and Granny Green to fight.
The Grand Commander stared at Fei Hong and didn't refuse, which meant he wanted her to play along. Mama Feng panicked as she looked down from the loft. She was really afraid of Miao Yi. Which merchant on Celestial Street wasn't afraid of Miao Yi? She kept gesturing at Fei Hong.
Under the circumstances where everyone was bullying Miao Yi alone, Fei Hong had no choice but to turn around and walk over to where Hai Pingxin was standing. She picked up the wine jug on the table and refilled Miao Yi's wine cup, then silently stood to the side with her hands behind her back.
"Good!"
The people below cheered again. When a woman appeared among a group of men, the latter was bound to be the target of jeering. It was inevitable that they would urge her to drink and ask for a performance. It was normal for men to have bad habits.
The master of ceremonies in charge of the venue gestured again. Immediately, four plainly dressed beauties appeared and danced to the music. It was a unique experience.
Mama Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Soon, the master of ceremonies ran up to rearrange the performance. The Crown Accord could finally rest.
Under the night sky, travelers from all over the starry sky were still coming and going on the streets of Celestial Street. Shop assistants of all sizes took turns to attract customers day and night. Spring Flower and Autumn Moon Tavern was brightly lit in the middle of the lake. It was a luxurious place. Who knew how much money was spent in one night? Just the cost of this venue alone was something many cultivators couldn't earn in their entire lives.
On the dance floor, the dancers did not leave after exiting the stage. Instead, they scattered to the surrounding seats to accompany the guests to drink, allowing them to enjoy themselves to the fullest. Very soon, the scene of hugging and flirting with each other wreaked havoc in the hall, and there were even some who couldn't bear it.
There were also people who took advantage of the situation to urge Fei Hong and Commander Niu to sit side by side and drink with them. However, this time, Fei Hong refused to budge and kept her distance from Miao Yi. She was a prostitute in a brothel, so she didn't sell her body. Standing on the side and holding the pot was already the biggest concession she could make.
Seeing her like this, Miao Yi didn't force the issue. He knew that Yun Zhiqiu was here as well. If he were to make out with another woman in front of his wife, it would be a big deal when he got back.
However, halfway through the fun, Miao Yi was tempted by the beauties on the scene. Just as he was about to turn his head to look at Fei Hong from time to time, his brows suddenly twitched. He noticed that the transcendence source in his body was surging, and the Heart Flame was automatically spreading throughout his body. His five viscera and six bowels, as well as his limbs and bones, ignited a wisp of smoke.
Miao Yi was secretly shocked. How could he not know what was going on with his own cultivation art? This was the backlash from his own cultivation art after being poisoned. The Fiery Star Art was automatically detoxifying the poison.
Could it be that he had made a mistake in judgment? Was there really someone trying to assassinate him? He quickly looked within himself and caught a glimpse of something that was being purged by the Heart Flame. It was slightly orange-yellow in color, and almost undetectable, and had already seeped into his body.
To Miao Yi, who had cultivated using the Orbs of Will for many years, this thing wasn't unfamiliar. It was the Seven Emotions and Six Sensory Pleasures contained within the Orb of Will.
It wasn't a large amount, so it wouldn't disturb his mind. It didn't seem like it was meant to kill him either, but it was enough to stimulate a certain part of his desire. However, what shocked him was that he hadn't even noticed when this thing had entered his body. More importantly, this thing was ethereal and wouldn't trigger the usual symptoms of poisoning. If the amount wasn't large, he wouldn't even know he had been poisoned. If it wasn't for the fact that his cultivation art was unique and automatically triggered it, he wouldn't have noticed it.
Without waiting for the Fiery Star Art to slowly resolve itself, he quickly invoked his arts to cleanse his body of the foreign substance, then beckoned behind him.
Yang Qing didn't know what he meant. He walked up to Miao Yi's side and lowered his head slightly to listen to his orders.
Miao Yi tilted his head slightly and transmitted his voice over, "I've been poisoned. Someone might have poisoned my food."
Yang Qing was secretly shocked, but judging from Miao Yi's appearance, it didn't seem like he had been poisoned. He transmitted his voice back, "How is that possible? Before Milord's food was sent over, he had already arranged for someone to taste it first. Only after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it was sent over. Even the person who sent the food was one of our own in disguise. There shouldn't be any problems. How could he have been poisoned?"
The scene was still filled with merry songs and laughter. Fine wine and delicacies filled the air, but many people noticed Miao Yi and Yang Qing whispering to each other above them. They didn't know what they were discussing, and some of them were secretly on guard. 'It won't be another bloodbath, right?' Miao Yi had cast a shadow over the group of them.
Miao Yi replied, "Don't tell me I don't know if I've been poisoned or not?"
Yang Qing said, "My Lord, please remain calm. Don't let anyone notice anything amiss. Secretly mobilize people to escort My Lord back to the Guardian Palace and think of a way to cure the poison."
Miao Yi replied, "There's no need to go through so much trouble. The reason I'm still alive today isn't because of this petty trick. Do you know what poison I have? The amount of lust in the seven emotions and six sensory pleasures is not large, but it is enough to stimulate my sex. It makes it hard for me to restrain myself! "
Yang Qing said, "This … This is even more impossible. My Lord has been eating and drinking for a long time. If it really was that lust, it should have taken effect long ago. It is something that would immediately take effect. Why would it wait until now?"
Miao Yi asked, "Did you notice anything unusual when you were behind me just now? For example, did this Fei Hong make any unusual movements? "
Yang Qing subconsciously glanced at Fei Hong, and realized that she was calm. She didn't reveal any clues as she listened to the conversation between the two of them. "Yan Xiu and I have been watching closely, not daring to miss any details. If that thing had entered My Lord's body from outside, its brilliance would not have been able to escape our eyes. Fei Hong's every move was also closely watched, and she didn't make any unusual movements. How could she have made any unusual movements at such a close distance? Not to mention, she was intentionally keeping her distance from My Lord."
Miao Yi replied, "If it didn't enter from outside, then it must have been eaten by me."
Yang Qing couldn't understand. "I've never heard of this thing being preserved in food. If it was placed in food, it would probably dissipate immediately."
Miao Yi's tone was slightly angry. "There's always one of two directions. I can't possibly be poisoned for no reason. Didn't you already notice something when you stopped me from letting her get close to me?"
Now that he thought about it, it made sense! Yang Qing briefly sorted out the cause and effect of the situation at the scene, and asked, "The amount of this thing is small. Once it enters the body, it's almost impossible to detect. Even if it flares up, it's usually hard to detect. The amount is so small that it's almost impossible to detect the normal symptoms of poisoning. When My Lord sensed the abnormality, could you confirm whether it was before or after Fei Hong approached you?"
Miao Yi replied, "You're thinking the same thing as me. I can confirm that it was after she approached me. She approached me, and then this thing appeared. It's really a good match."
Yang Qing understood what he meant, and also grasped the situation. He said, "My Lord, just go with the flow. I will mediate the situation! Also, since My Lord can detect and neutralize this thing, why don't you examine it carefully later? See if it was in the wine or the food, and see how you were poisoned. "
Miao Yi nodded slightly.
Only then did Yang Qing stand up, but he didn't return to his original position. Instead, he deliberately walked to Fei Hong's side, and transmitted his voice, "It's rare for the Great Commander to come out and enjoy himself. Miss Fei Hong, why are you so distant? Isn't that a little too disrespectful to the Great Commander? Why don't you sit beside the Great Commander and drink a few cups with him to show your respect?"
The people below noticed the situation above, but they didn't know what was going on.
Fei Hong turned around, and gave Yang Qing a slight bow. She forced a smile and said, "The Great Commander is like a king sitting on the clouds. I'm just an entertainer. I wouldn't dare tarnish the Great Commander's reputation. I hope my Lord can be magnanimous enough to forgive me." This was a tactful rejection.
Yang Qing's expression darkened. "Fei Hong, you're disrespecting the Great Commander! So what if he insists on having you accompany him? "
Fei Hong replied, "Fei Hong only sells her skills, not her body. I've never accompanied him to drink. Forgive me for not being able to comply."
"Hmph!" Yang Qing scoffed. He then walked to Miao Yi's side, and once again bent down to whisper a few words into his ear.
This time, the people present could more or less tell what was going on. The Great Commander seemed to be interested in Fei Hong. He was concerned about his image, so he sent his subordinates to greet her. It seemed like they were discussing this matter just now.
Up in the loft, Mama Feng's heart tightened.
'Huang Fujun, who's seated below?' Y was staring at the situation up there. In the pavilion far away, Yun Zhiqiu's gaze was fixed on them.
After whispering a few words into Yang Qing's ear, Miao Yi tilted his head to look at Fei Hong. He picked up the wine cup on the table and immediately stood up. He walked out of his seat and walked to Fei Hong's side, smiling as he said, "Miss Fei Hong, come. Let me offer you a toast!"
"I wouldn't dare!" It wasn't easy to refuse. The Great Commander had personally come over to offer a toast. Fei Hong had no choice but to quickly grab another small cup from the table, fill it up for herself, and raise her cup, saying, "This humble concubine offers a toast to Milord." As soon as she finished speaking, she drank it first.
Miao Yi drank with her, but his gaze never left Fei Hong's beautiful face. When Fei Hong bent down to put down the wine cup and stood up, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Fei Hong's wrist. He smiled and said, "It's my fault for making Miss Fei Hong stand for so long. Why don't we sit together?"
"Great Commander …" Fei Hong struggled in a panic.
However, Miao Yi didn't care that much. He immediately dragged her to her seat and forcefully dragged her to sit with him.
Fei Hong struggled a few times to stand up, but Miao Yi reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist, holding her tightly to his side. It was as if he was holding her in his arms. With a warm and fragrant body in his arms, he forcefully invoked his arts to suppress it. With Fei Hong's cultivation, she was no match for Miao Yi. She was immediately restrained by his side, her expression unsightly.
'As expected!' Many of the people present secretly sighed in their hearts. 'This bastard is really bold. He even dared to touch Granny Lu's goddaughter.'
Some even sighed in their hearts. 'I hope this Niu guy won't push his luck. It would be disgusting if a good vegetable was taken by a pig.'
'As for Huang Fujun, who's seated below?' Y gritted her teeth so hard that they almost broke. She gulped down cup after cup of wine, realizing that she had been blind to have given herself to such a beast. The feeling in her heart was indescribable.
In the distant pavilion, Yun Zhiqiu's face turned green when she saw this scene. 'If that bastard was just fooling around, then so be it. But he actually dared to snatch someone's embrace in front of everyone. Who does he think I am?' She almost had the urge to charge over with a saber.
However, she wasn't stupid. Her gaze fell on Yang Qing beside Miao Yi, and her heart was instantly filled with suspicion. 'Huangfu Jun?' Y didn't know Yang Qing's identity, but she did. With the relationship between Weiwei and Miao Yi, why would Yang Qing take the initiative to help Miao Yi with something like this?
When she looked at Yang Qing's calm expression, she felt even more suspicious. She slightly suppressed the anger in her heart and prepared to see what was going on.
