272 Chapter 272 Miao Family Internal Conflicts

Waking up the next morning with severe pain in the back, Desmond opened his eyes only to see an extremely tempting scene as Xiauyue and Mei who slept on his chest managed to loosen their robes slightly during the night.

But it was Xiauyue who was truly tempting Desmond right now as it was her face that was closest to Desmond’s face with her tantalizing lips shining seductively as some of her cleavages showed due to the way her dress had been disarranged.

So early in the morning with such temptation laid out in front of him, Desmond had a difficult time calming down the internal heat that was beginning to build up in his pants and showing how weak the will could be when the right conditions presented themselves, Desmond leaned slightly closer to Xiauyue’s lips until he was dangerously close, feeling the warm breath of the beautiful maiden tickling him but in a moment of clarity Desmond ended up pulling away.

Little did he know that a pair of spring water blue eyes had been staring at him all this time with a hazy glow of confused emotions and unknown to both of them was Xiauyue who was having the most difficult time of her life trying to calm her chaotic heartbeat.

Desmond would never have expected that all that time Xiauyue had been awake but it was due to her shyness and her inability to decide what to do that she ended up pretending to be asleep.

But it’s not like she could be blamed on it either, as close to Desmond as she had become in recent days, her only love interest had always been Mei, and the fact that Desmond will always try to help her in her relationship with Mei had made her subconsciously don′t regard Desmond as someone who cared for her romantically.

Even during the brief intimate exchanges that occurred the day before, she had only felt a faint hint of something other than friendship directed toward him but she had never considered the possibility of anything else happening; that was why she could sleep so peacefully next to Desmond.

And it was thoughts like that that led Mei to have a similar line of thought, but seeing that moment when Desmond was about to kiss Xiauyue; the jealousy Mei felt was anything but insignificant.

Curiously, what confuses poor Mei the most is that she had the impression that for a moment her jealousy was not only directed at Desmond for trying to kiss Xiauyue but that she also felt jealous of Xiauyue for being kissed by Desmond.

.....

In that sense, the relationship between the three that had become more and more complicated as time passed had just become even more complicated with the events that passed in silence this morning.

Unable to really do anything else, Desmond spent almost half an hour lost in his thoughts to the future before Mei and Xiauyue eventually decided to wake up by slowly pulling away from Desmond’s chest and rising from his lap.

Because the cold was over and the courage that led them to lie so comfortably with Desmond last night had faded in the same way that both Mei and Xiauyue wore an adorable expression of intense shyness with a ruddy glow on their soft cheeks.

Desmond for his part had his reasons for not talking about it so he just sorted things out in the little camp they improvised in the cave where they spent the night.

After nearly five minutes of awkward silence, after which the trio left the cave waiting to spend another day exploring the mountains for treasure; As what happened in the cave? none of them mentioned anything about it.

As was customary in the Mountains of a Thousand Beasts, no day was uneventful, barely twenty minutes after the trio left the cave before a hissing roar broke through the melodious natural sounds of the forest.

After an inquisitive look Desmond nodded helplessly when he saw the almost flaming eyes of Mei who was cracking her fists with anxiety, it was so obvious that the girl was eager to stretch her legs kicking someone’s butt that Desmond did not even bother to try to convince her to do another thing.

Running at full speed, the trio sped through the forest using the tree canopy as a foothold, leaving deep tracks in the bark of the trees and a reverberating crunch behind.

Of course, Xiauyue and Mei were considerate enough to slightly relax their stride so that Desmond could keep up, although neither of them had any complaints about it since the gap between their strength was as great as; they never considered him to be a burden.

Barely a few moments had passed when the same hissing roar echoed through the sky, but the position seemed to have shifted slightly causing the group to correct their course but they didn’t get very far before they observed what was likely their target.

It was just that seeing him it was not only Xiauyue and Desmond who began to lose interest in fighting, even Mei had to think twice if they planned to face that beast that soared through the skies with grace and majesty.

For dragon was the only word that came to mind when one gazed at the magnificent flying beast. With a white reptilian body almost thirty meters long, four powerful limbs with sharp copper claws, two pairs of gigantic insectoid-like iridescent wings, and an elegant-looking head decorated by two suns that the beast carried for eyes; not to mention its appearance... its mere presence was extremely intimidating.

But it was perhaps Mei who felt the greatest pressure among the three, for the girl whose presence always emanated courage and conviction at this moment felt her heart tremble with a primal fear that she did not understand; it was as if every fiber of her being was afraid of that dragon being that now soared through the skies looking down with disdain.

Xiauyue was the first to notice that something strange was happening with Mei and she did not hesitate to approach to try to check her condition, it was when she approached Mei that she noticed that Mei’s eyes had changed back to their feline appearance and their metallic color while these throbbed strangely.

Who would have thought that in the time it took for Xiauyue and Desmond to check on Mei’s state, the beast in the sky would notice their presence unleashing a tyrannical aura once again before flapping its wings releasing a shower of energy blades in a specific direction before flying away but not before giving Desmond’s group a slow, inquisitive look.

It was at that moment that Desmond had a strange feeling of familiarity with that strange and imposing beast in the sky, it was something about the aura that it emanated; Desmond felt that he had felt that aura somewhere in the past but was not able to remember exactly where or in whom.

Unfortunately, he did not have the time to immerse himself in his memories for as soon as the flying beast vanished on the horizon a group of individuals emerged from the place where the beast had been before.

One can imagine the surprise of the trio when they saw that this group consisted of members of the roaming cloud sect who also carried the Miao family symbol with them.

Perhaps due to Mei’s current state or because they both knew how difficult it was to trust someone in these mountains, Xiauyue and Desmond did not hesitate for an instant before moving to a defensive position in front of Mei on guard against these strangers who seemed to have provoked that draconic entity that they saw just moments ago.

The leader of the other group saw the strangers on their way and was about to order the attack when he recognized Xiauyue, seeing the few men left on his side and the wounded state they were in; This Miao family member had to grit his teeth thinking that this was the ideal opportunity to get rid of this perfect Miao family daughter but now he had lost it because of one of his men recklessly attacked the white beast when it was she was asleep.

Forcing a smile worse than crying, the Miao family member tried to present himself with false elegance by hiding poisonous words in his speech: “My day seems to have been improved by having the fortune to witness the beauty of the Miao family’s favorite daughter, I am truly envious of whoever is the lucky man to marry you ”

Hearing the venomous tone with which this idiot-faced fellow spoke about Xiauyue’s marriage and what the Miao family’s favorite daughter called her, Desmond immediately got the vague idea that Xiauyue’s family situation was far from ideal and that some people within the family might already have an idea of ??the special inclinations of the so-called favorite daughter of the Miao family.

The sound of Xiauyue’s fists cracking under pressure only reinforced Desmond’s idea but who would expect this idiot to take the initiative to continue provoking his group.

“I see that Miss Xiauyue is still bad at choosing companies, the simple fact that she spends your time with a foreign man will give a lot to say about your dignity. I hope you remember to preserve your purity for marriage or you will get in trouble with our beloved family. ” The fool of the Miao family didn’t seem to intend to stop his insults, probably thinking that even though he couldn’t make a move on Xiauyue; she wouldn’t dare make a move against him.

But maybe the idiot felt that he had lived long enough or missed his ancestors too much because he proceeded to insult the most unstable person in the place: “As for this... woman who seems to have caught your interest, let’s not talk about having any elegance in it; a simple glance is enough to know that she is of humble blood ”

“You really don’t know how to spell the word death” Mei Fei Long exclaimed slowly with each word emitting a slight pressure before looking at Xiauyue and saying with a touch of guilt: “he shouldn’t have insulted my family”
