Chapter 40 – Homeward Journey (1)

       Qin Yun was not in a relaxed mood on the way back. He communicated with Lin Dongliang via video once, and the other party comforted him.

       “Don’t worry, even a god-level person can’t easily guide His Majesty.” The Secretary of State said with a gentle smile, “Although the other party wanted to, they didn’t succeed after all.”

       Qin Yun couldn’t help but ask, “His Majesty… Is he okay?”

       Lin Dongliang hesitated for a while before replying, “It’s okay; Kyle’s mental power is not strong enough to harm His Majesty.”

       Qin Yun frowned. He always felt that the other party seemed to be hiding something from him, but he couldn’t find the reason to pry. He could only repeat it again, “I will be there tomorrow afternoon; don’t forget to tell him.”

       Lin Dongliang smiled and replied, “Alright.” He waited until the other party turned off the video before turning around.

       Moschery leaned against the bed with a pale face. Unlike the guide, the sentinel did not have strong mental power. Although the barriers erected by their consciousness cloud could defend against the guide’s mental attacks to a certain extent, it was simply torture to the brain when encountering the same level.

       “He will arrive tomorrow afternoon.” Lin Dongliang looked at the Emperor worriedly, “Your consciousness cloud has been severely damaged… It is impossible for Qin Yun not to notice it.”

       “It doesn’t matter.” Moschery said calmly, “He can’t see Zhongyan. As for me… I can ask a makeup artist to cover.”

       Lin Dongliang disagreed. He had witnessed a head-on confrontation between one god-level and another today. Although Kyle was forced to have a mental breakdown in the end, Moschery was not much better. His consciousness barrier was riddled with holes, and he almost came close to having mania several times.

 

       The Emperor took Zhongyan back into the realm of consciousness. The dragon’s wings were covered with scars. It carefully wrapped its tail around itself, turned its head, and licked the blood on its wings.

       Even if Lin Dongliang couldn’t see it, he still knew that the Emperor’s spiritual link was injured. Although the god-level had strong self-healing ability, the pain he suffered was still the same.

       “I will pick him up at the port tomorrow.” Moschery seemed to have thought of something, with a slight smile on his face, “Fortunately, the wedding is almost ready.”

 

       The Crested Ibis arrived at the port at noon the next day. Before Qin Yun landed, he saw the royal escort waiting below. Moschery stood in front, his scarlet cloak behind him, flying up and down by the air current.

       The Emperor smiled when he saw him.

       Qin Yun couldn’t wait for the cabin door to be fully opened and jumped down. Moschery opened his arms and took him firmly into his arms. The two hugged him for a long time until Bixi, who was following Qin Yun, couldn’t help but say, “Alright, although a short parting is better than a honeymoon, at least pay attention to the occasion.”

       “Hey.” Qin Yun let go of Moschery with some embarrassment but did not let go of the Emperor’s hand, “This is Bixi.” He introduced her to Moschery, “The first representative of Averio Academy.”

       Bixi curtsied gracefully and looked at her prospective son-in-law, “Nice to meet you, Your Majesty.”

       “Welcome to our wedding.” Moschery bent down slightly, took Bixi’s hand and kissed the back of her hand, “You are younger and more beautiful than I imagined.”

       Bixi smiled with wrinkles almost appearing at the corners of her eyes, “Little Rainbow Dash is indeed right, Your Majesty; you have such a sweet mouth.”

       Qin Yun didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He carefully looked at Moschery’s face. Although he didn’t find anything unusual, he still felt a little strange…

       The Emperor had not yet reacted when his chin was held. Qin Yun was so close to him that he almost touched the tip of his nose. The other person frowned and stared at his face.

       “Are you wearing makeup?” Qin Yun asked uncertainly, “Why is your skin colour so unnatural?”

       “…” Moschery replied by biting the other directly on the mouth.

 

       When he encountered the Olympus men at the entrance of the palace, Moschery’s expression was so gloomy. He didn’t expect that Kyle would recover quickly and still have the strength to cause trouble.

       The god-level guide’s face was almost translucently pale. Standing there with a somewhat delicate appearance, he seemed a bit pitiful. When he saw Qin Yun’s face, he clearly paused for a moment. However, upon realising that the other was just an ordinary person, he immediately calmed down.

       Moschery knew something was wrong when he saw Kyle’s normal eye slowly turn golden. He shouted anxiously, “Qin Yun!” Before he could take action, the other party stepped in front of him.

       Kyle said in surprise, “How did you…” But before he could finish his words, Qin Yun punched him in the face and knocked him to the ground.

       Moschery: “…”

       Qin Yun flicked his wrist, looking down at the guide who was lying on the ground unable to get up for a long time, and said coldly, “I heard that you want to divert my sentinel?”

       Kyle: “…”

       Qin Yun: “Do you know that you can’t touch other people’s things casually?” He turned to Tristana and told Tristana, “Bring the high-energy cannon.”

       Kyle watched with horror as the other party easily carried the huge cannon barrel, and Qin Yun pressed the muzzle heavily against the god-level guide’s head.

       “Get out of here right away.” Qin Yun lowered his head and said coldly, “Or else, I’ll kill you right now.”

 

       Old Butler Ba Jin saw off the Olympus ship with a smile on his face, but as soon as he returned to the palace, he found the queen-to-be with his arms folded and staring at His Majesty with a serious expression.

       “Why didn’t you tell me you were injured?” Qin Yun frowned. His high-energy cannon was placed at his feet, which made Ba Jin couldn’t help but look over.

       Moschery had an unpleasant look on his face. It was probably the first time in his life that the Emperor looked so embarrassed. He said harshly, “It’s just a minor injury…it will be fine in a few days.”

       Qin Yun sighed, “The wedding will be held after you recover from your injury.” He turned around and stopped looking at Moschery, “I will sleep by myself tonight.” After that, he picked up the high-energy cannon and went to the guest room alone.

       “…” The Emperor stared at Qin Yun’s back in shock. He turned his head in disbelief and asked Ba Jin, “Is he… angry with me?”

       Ba Jin asked, “I think… so?”

       Moschery: “…How dare he be angry with me?!”

       Ba Jin shrugged.

       The Emperor let out a displeased “Ha”, turned around and left with an ugly expression on his face, only to step back after a few steps and grunted awkwardly, “Young ladies just have a bad temper…forget it, I’ll go and coax him!” “

       Ba Jin: “…”

 

       Qin Yun looked at His Majesty the Emperor standing at the door of the guest room with no intention of getting out of the way. He leaned against the door with his arms folded and said calmly, “Do you know what you did wrong?”

       Of course Moschery didn’t feel that he was at fault. He hesitated for a long time with a stiff face and didn’t know what to say.

       “Even if I lose my guide ability, I am not useless at all.” Qin took a deep breath, “You are not the only one who wants to protect me.” He closed his eyes and said slowly, “I also want to be the one you rely on.”

       Moschery opened his mouth, and he said impatiently, “Then let’s get married right away; no need for delays.”

       Qin Yun tilted her head and looked at him.

       “Let’s get married.” The Emperor promised with all his might, “I will rely on you.”

       Qin Yun made a ‘pfft’ sound, “Do you know what I mean by relying on?”

       “I understand.” Moschery looked at him seriously, “I will believe you, respect you, cherish you…and love you for the rest of my life.”

       “…” Qin Yun held his forehead helplessly, “That’s not relying on… you are confessing. It’s too foul.”

       Moschery didn’t defend himself. He suddenly stepped forward to hold the door, lowered his head and kissed Qin Yun’s lips. The latter finally couldn’t help but stretch out his hands and wrap his arms around the Emperor’s neck.

       “Let’s get married tomorrow.” His Majesty the Emperor muttered vaguely, “I’ll help you try the dress to see if it fits you later.”

       Qin Yun was in a daze after being kissed, “How can I try it…”

       “I’ll help you try it on.” Moschery raised his head and stared into Qin Yun’s eyes, “I will be responsible for helping you put it on and then take it off.”

       Qin Yun: “…”

    I noticed that the “next post” buttons leads to chapter 42 instead of 41. Chapter 41 is not listed on Novelupdates either but can be found in the TOC of this website!
