Chapter 1493: Didn't We Agree on a Gentle, Mild-Mannered Qin Family Member?

Xia Na said irritably, "So what if I like him?"

Qin Xiaoxiao hadn't expected Xia Na to answer her like that.

She simply wanted to win over an ally!

She believed that, given Su Yang's strong personality, she would be well protected.

Liu Mengyun probably wouldn't target her too much!

But that Liu Mengyun she had never met had indeed brought her tremendous pressure.

She wanted to find a companion to share some of that pressure with her.

Xia Na seemed like a very good choice.

Young, talented, deeply trusted by Su Yang—Xia Na would likely stay by Su Yang's side from now on, and sooner or later they'd become one family.

Helping Xia Na out now and building good karma—Qin Xiaoxiao felt there was nothing wrong with that.

"Fine!" Qin Xiaoxiao said. "As long as you like him."

"By the way, Qin Xiaoxiao, you won't get jealous if you let me marry General Su?"

Xia Na asked, thoroughly puzzled.

"Jealous? My father's women on the surface alone number more than two digits… do I have any reason to be jealous?" Qin Xiaoxiao plucked at a string of her qin. "General Su has already been very restrained!"

Su Yang rushed to Sanye City and learned that Liu Mengyun had already left.

He spent another half hour or so hurrying to Liuyi City, where he finally met Liu Mengyun.

Under the guidance of the Lord of Liuyi City, Liu Mengyun was helping reinforce the shelters.

Phoenix asked curiously, "That white-haired, very pretty woman—is she your wife?"

"Yes!"

"Not bad in terms of strength!" Phoenix said, looking at the ice crystals in the white mist. "These ice crystals don't look simple at all."

"That's my wife!"

After working for a while, Liu Mengyun looked up and saw Su Yang.

The smile that had just appeared on her face gradually faded once she noticed Phoenix beside Su Yang.

Phoenix's fiery red long robe and her domineering, forceful aura made her look like someone not to be trifled with.

"Your wife doesn't seem to be in a good mood!" Phoenix said with a pursed-lip smile. "Do you think she might have misunderstood something?"

"Possibly!"

Su Yang brought Phoenix closer to the shelter, quickly drawing the attention of the soldiers around them.

"Looks like General Su!"

"Yes, it's General Su!"

"..."

The Lord of Liuyi City whispered a reminder, "General Liu, General Su is here to see you!"

Liu Mengyun replied without looking up, "I know. Let me finish what I'm doing first!"

"Alright!"

The Lord of Liuyi City nodded, then hurried off to greet Su Yang.

Su Yang and Phoenix stood quietly to one side. After ten minutes, Liu Mengyun finally finished covering a large shelter completely with ice crystals.

Only then did Liu Mengyun raise her head and look at Su Yang: "General Su, this is… that Qin family member?"

It had only been ten minutes, but Liu Mengyun's anger had not yet subsided.

She wasn't upset that Su Yang had married another woman, but that Su Yang seemed not to have done what he had promised her.

He had said he'd find a gentle, mild-mannered Qin family member, but the woman beside Su Yang clearly had nothing to do with being gentle and mild!

Su Yang hurriedly said, "No, she's a beast pet—a companion I just subdued!"

"Oh?" Liu Mengyun glanced at Phoenix in surprise. "And that one of yours?"

"She seems a bit too embarrassed to meet you…"

"Mm!"

Hearing those words, Liu Mengyun's expression finally eased a little.

But ordinary people simply couldn't read the changes in Liu Mengyun's eyes or expression.

Toward anyone, she generally kept an icy face, very stern.

In front of outsiders, she wouldn't show too much facial expression when facing Su Yang either.

Only when the two of them were alone did she become like a real woman!

Even more passionate than an ordinary woman~

A complete two-faced person.

Liu Mengyun said softly, "You've been gone so long, I thought once you got someone new, you'd forgotten all about me!"

"No, after I came back, I was going to look for you, but a major problem cropped up with the Shoushen Sect in the northwest, so I rushed over to help there."

Liu Mengyun asked with concern, "You went to the northwest? Weren't you told not to go? That Beast God didn't make a move on you, did it?"

She knew about the matter of Su Yang being targeted by the "Beast God" back then.

"Just think about who your husband is. The moment I showed up, that Beast God surrendered on the spot!"

"Be serious!"

"The Beast God was killed by me!"

"It wasn't strong?"

"Not strong—just God-Rank Mid-Grade!"

Phoenix, standing beside them, couldn't help her eyelid twitch.

"Uh..."

Liu Mengyun reached out to grab him directly.

"Wait, there are so many people watching! Don't you want to give me some face?"

Liu Mengyun gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, we'll talk about it tonight!"

After traveling through three cities with Liu Mengyun, Su Yang and the others finally rested.

By then, Liu Mengyun already knew the full story.

She knew Su Yang had killed that Beast God, become a Divine-level Beast Tamer, and reclaimed a Divine Beast—Great Earth Bear had become a Divine Beast, and Hellblood Vine was not far from becoming one either.

Liu Mengyun was extremely pleased about this.

Her heart was entirely tied to Su Yang.

The stronger her man was, the safer he would be.

Su Yang traveled through the great world of Beast Tamers, dealing with dangerous Divine-level Beast Tamers and Divine-level ferocious beasts; she was genuinely worried for him.

Otherwise, Liu Mengyun wouldn't have agreed to Su Yang's marriage alliance with the Qin family.

Wasn't it just so he'd have one fewer enemy and one more powerful ally?

When Su Yang finished explaining everything, Liu Mengyun suddenly asked, "By the way, when Phoenix Sister came to our world, did she see a Sovereign-level Beast Tamer near the spatial rift?"

Su Yang slapped his forehead and remembered Sovereign Jiazi's matter.

Sovereign Jiazi had always guarded the deep sea region in the southeast; Phoenix most likely entered Water Blue Star from there.

"I did see a young girl with Sovereign-level Beast Tamer power," Phoenix smiled and asked, "I remember—the ice crystals sealing those spatial rifts were set by you, right?"

Su Yang asked, "Is she alright?"

"She's fine!" Phoenix said. "I only glanced at her briefly."

"Good!"

"She's your person?"
