Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 417: Invincible East VS Sunflower Manual (3)

"Let go, Xiaobai is inside, I have to rescue it." She glanced back at Dugu Chen fiercely, anxious to go inside without considering the potential danger.

"Where exactly is it? I’ll go."

"Down at the foot of the mountain."

Without another word, Dugu Chen vanished on the spot, and Feng Xuxu frantically kept talking to Xiaobai, trying to keep it conscious.

Following his wife’s directions, Dugu Chen found Xiaobai curled up in a corner. Seeing its enormous body writhing in pain, Dugu Chen felt a moment of sharp agony too. He quickly lifted its body and hurried down the mountain.

"Xiaobai, what on earth happened to you?" As Dugu Chen set Xiaobai down, Feng Xuxu rushed forward to ask, unable to wait.

"It’s... it’s likely transforming into human form." This was the first time Xiaobai experienced this; it had only read about such transformations in books and had never actually transformed before. Filled with fear but somewhat reassured by having its sister by its side, it managed to settle its racing heart a little.

As time slowly passed, Xiaobai’s body began to visibly change, starting with the shedding of fur from its legs, molting its skin, and finally revealing two fair and slender human legs. As the transformation moved upward, Dugu Chen immediately pressed Feng Xuxu’s head into his chest, adamantly refusing to let her see any more.

When Xiaobai had completely transformed, it became a very handsome young man.

Seeing him naked, Dugu Chen took off his own robe and threw it to Xiaobai. Had it not been for his wife’s presence, he wouldn’t have bothered with the matter at all.

As Xiaobai stood up and stretched its limbs, it thought how good it felt to be human and excitedly wanted to rush over to embrace Sister Feng, only to be kicked away by Dugu Chen. "Put on your clothes. From now on, keep your hands off my wife."

Xiaobai pouted as it picked up the clothes from the ground and put them on, looking this way and that. Wearing clothes for the first time in its life felt very awkward.

"Are you done yet?" Feng Xuxu, unable to bear being covered up any longer, asked impatiently.

Once Dugu Chen saw that Xiaobai was decently covered, he finally released his wife from his embrace and glared at Xiaobai with peach-blossom eyes.

"You, you’re Xiaobai?" Feng Xuxu was surprised to see a strange man and opened her mouth wide in astonishment. She circled around Xiaobai, about to embrace him, when Dugu Chen stepped in front of her.

"Wife, are you dissatisfied with your husband?" Seeing his wife eager to embrace another man was something he couldn’t allow; his face turned an ashen hue as he looked down at her.

Feng Xuxu gave a sheepish smile and touched her nose, "Hehe, I got a bit carried away." She wiped a bead of sweat from her forehead, sensing the tension thick in the air.

Xiaobai was speechless, thinking how excessively jealous Dugu Chen was. Hugging his sister would be impossible from now on.

The night was destined to be sleepless.

Inside Yonghe Palace, Xiu Yang was sweating profusely, lashing with his whip, the sounds of it cracking resounding through the air. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Meanwhile, the Emperor was luxuriously basking in the enjoyment, while Xiu Yang looked on with incredulity at the lash marks forming on Dugu Han’s back, at a loss as to what had prompted the Emperor to demand this lashing. When he had entered the room that evening and the Emperor asked to be whipped, he first thought it was a joke, only to realize the Emperor was serious.

"Your Majesty, this, this is getting severe; should we...?" Although he had vented his anger, the sight of the Emperor’s lacerated skin was alarming, and he feared that if the Emperor stopped having those bouts of whimsy, remembering how he lashed him today might get him killed even faster and more tragically.

Dugu Han felt as though he was missing something; it wasn’t until Xiu Yang’s whipping session that he recaptured that sense of joy.

"Mmm, come and help me change," the Emperor said, offering a rare amiable expression to Xiu Yang.

After serving the Emperor and helping him to bed, Xiu Yang, soaked in sweat, left the royal chamber. To outsiders, he was one of the most envied men, but who knew of his personal sorrow?
