Chapter 69 – The Imperial Family (1)

On the day of Ju Yun-hui’s long-awaited return to the palace, imperial warriors and court ladies were waiting for her, having somehow learned of her arrival.

Of course, there was no need to publicly announce that the princess was moving about so freely, so at a glance, it simply looked like the daughter of a wealthy family was out on an excursion.

“Princess, who are these people?”

Nam Hong-gi, an imperial warrior from the Golden Brocade Guard, asked with a stern face. He could overlook the women by Ju Yun-hui’s side, but Yu-jin’s presence bothered him.

Yu-jin had one arm wrapped around Ju Yun-hui’s waist as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

For an unmarried man to touch the body of the unmarried princess was the height of disrespect. That was why Nam Hong-gi and the other guards of the Golden Brocade were glaring at Yu-jin with hardened faces.

“How should I introduce myself? Would ‘future husband’ be appropriate?”

Yu-jin wore a smile that was sure to displease everyone around him.

Seeing that smile, Nam Hong-gi nearly drew his sword.

“What is the meaning of this, Princess? Is what this man says true? If it is a lie, I will cut him down this instant.”

At Nam Hong-gi’s words, Ju Yun-hui wanted to say it was a lie, but she held her tongue for his sake. Even if all of them attacked at once, they couldn’t stop Yu-jin.

“It isn’t a lie, but it’s not confirmed either. I will speak to His Majesty the Emperor about the details later. For now, they will accompany me to the Imperial Palace.”

The order of a royal was absolute. Gritting his teeth, Nam Hong-gi had no choice but to accept Yu-jin and the women into their party.

And so, to enter the Imperial Martial Repository, Yu-jin successfully joined Ju Yun-hui and her retinue, heading for Beijing, where the Imperial Palace was located.

The distance between Sichuan and Beijing was vast, but traveling in a carriage sent from the palace, the journey was not so arduous.

“Sigh… How am I supposed to explain this to my brother?”

In low spirits, Ju Yun-hui rode alone in her carriage, sighing as if the world were collapsing. The journey, which she usually enjoyed, was now a torment.

She thought of Yu-jin, the one who had caused her this suffering. At the thought, an intense pleasure bloomed throughout her body before fading away.

“To think he would try to control people with this kind of energy…”

Perhaps due to her unique constitution, she was able to dispel the power of the Yin-Yang Lust Arts soon after being consumed by it, and unlike the other women, she could still maintain her reason.

However, she knew she wouldn’t be able to hold out for much longer. The power of the Yin-Yang Lust Arts was that terrifying.

“Hm?”

Suddenly sensing a presence, Ju Yun-hui reflexively lifted her head and gasped in shock. Yu-jin was sitting before her, smiling. The carriage door was clearly locked tight.

“It’s a long road ahead. You must be lonely. Let me comfort you.”

Inside the carriage, Yu-jin cupped the resisting Ju Yun-hui’s chin, lifting it, and pressed his lips against hers. His hot lips slowly parted her tightly sealed ones.

His kiss was so fierce and passionate that her head swam, her senses going numb. Before she knew it, Yun-hui had wrapped her arms around Yu-jin’s back.

Entrusting her body to his arms, Yun-hui spread her legs wide and sat astride his lap.

“Haaaah! Aaaah!”

As Yu-jin caressed her breasts from behind, a moan mixed with a nasal tone escaped her lips.

Furthermore, as his fingers teased her nipples, a clearer moan burst from her.

With one palm, he caressed her breast; with his fingers, her nipples; and with his other hand, he toyed with the flower petal beyond her undergarment.

The fabric covering her lower abdomen grew damp, clear evidence of her response.

“Hngh! Haaaah!”

Stretching her toes and clenching her fists, Yun-hui trembled violently before reaching her climax on Yu-jin’s lap.

*Thud.*

Her strength drained, Yun-hui leaned her body against Yu-jin’s chest.

There was only one reason she was being tormented like this.

Yun-hui’s unique constitution.

She would dispel the power of the Yin-Yang Lust Arts soon after it consumed her. That was why Yu-jin, despite the hassle, was acting so forcefully to dominate her once more.

“Aren’t you being a little too loud? There are people outside.”

Yun-hui couldn’t say a word. Of course, Yu-jin had already cast a sound-blocking barrier to prevent any noise from leaking out. But in her weakened state, Yun-hui was in no condition to notice.

Yu-jin looked down at the collapsed Yun-hui, then took both her hands and bound her wrists with a rope from his robes.

He then tied them to the handle bar installed at the edge of the carriage.

“What is this! Yu-jin, please, untie me!”

Her wrists restrained, a terrified Yun-hui struggled to escape, but the tightly knotted rope wouldn’t yield.

“You don’t have to be so scared. I’ll never hurt you.”

Yu-jin ignored Yun-hui’s sobbing pleas and continued to move his hands. With both hands tied to the handle bar, her chest pressed against the edge of the seat, and kneeling on the floor, Yun-hui squeezed her eyes shut.

“Please… untie me…”

Yu-jin answered her plea.

“You can’t use your hands, so serve me with your mouth. Then I’ll untie you.”

As he spoke, Yu-jin brought his member to her lips. Resigned, Yun-hui willingly opened her mouth wide and swallowed it. She used her lips and tongue to swirl and suck on the large member.

Satisfied by her renewed obedience, Yu-jin pulled his member from her mouth and moved behind her, spreading her legs. He tore the undergarment covering her flower petal and thrust his member into the thoroughly wet entrance.

“Haaaah!”

As his member pierced deep inside her, a cry mixed with pleasure and pain escaped her. She tried to flee, but Yu-jin gripped her waist firmly and pushed his shaft deeper, thwarting her attempt.

Yun-hui’s lower abdomen burned crimson. As if to extinguish the fire, she opened her mouth, panting, *haah, haah,* sucking in the air.

But her desperate efforts were futile against Yu-jin’s movements as he began to thrust with a frenzied rhythm.

“Here I come!”

The member violating Yun-hui’s flower swelled further as hot lava began to erupt from its tip. It surged like a violently raging wave, eroding the deepest parts of her body.

But this was only the beginning. She would be relentlessly tormented by Yu-jin until they reached Beijing.

Eventually, the power of the Yin-Yang Lust Arts fully settled throughout her entire body.

* * *

Fifteen days later.

Yu-jin and the women arrived in Beijing with Ju Yun-hui. Befitting the capital of a nation, its splendor and scale were immense.

Normally, Ju Yun-hui would have smiled with a sense of pride as she gazed upon the bustling streets of the capital she hadn’t seen in a long time, but not now.

The only emotion she felt at this moment was relief. The things she had experienced in the carriage over the past fifteen days had all been dreadful.

However, Kang Yu-jin, the very person who had bestowed upon Ju Yun-hui these unforgettable memories, sighed as he entered the carriage.

The other women were not qualified to enter the Imperial Palace, so they had found lodging in a courtesan house in Beijing. After seeing them settled, Yu-jin had returned to the carriage.

“Hmm, Beijing already? That was fast.”

At Yu-jin’s sigh, Ju Yun-hui’s body trembled involuntarily.

“By the way, how are you going to introduce me to His Majesty the Emperor?”

“…”

Ju Yun-hui said nothing in response to his question. It might have seemed like she lived freely, but that was merely the Emperor’s consideration. She was destined for a political marriage for the sake of the imperial family, so he had allowed her to enjoy her freedom until then.

But now that she had lost her purity, the Emperor would surely be enraged if he found out.

“If His Majesty the Emperor finds out that you took my purity, he will be furious. Are you not afraid of his wrath?”

Like the other women, Ju Yun-hui had submitted to Yu-jin and now used honorifics when speaking to him. But the content of her words was terrifying.

If the enraged Emperor gave the order to kill, the masters of the Imperial Palace, including the Phantom Sovereign, would surely move.

If they all attacked, even Yu-jin would be in danger. Of course, escaping wouldn’t be difficult, but if he did, he would never be able to set foot in the Central Plains again.

The Emperor’s wrath was that fearsome. But Yu-jin just scoffed.

“Did you know? If I put my mind to it, killing that Emperor of yours wouldn’t be difficult. The Phantom Sovereign may be a master who has ascended to the seat of the Ten Great Heavenly Masters, but that doesn’t matter at all.”

If Yu-jin were to wield his Profound Heaven Ink Phosphorus Sword from a distance towards the grand hall where the Emperor resided, not only the Emperor but the Phantom Sovereign and everyone else inside would surely die.

In truth, a direct confrontation with the imperial warriors was what was daunting. If Yu-jin were to use hit-and-run tactics, he had the power to kill more than half of them.

“That… is true…”

Ju Yun-hui started to retort but fell silent, realizing it was pointless.

Yu-jin was a master of such immense power that he could subdue even the Fire Dragon Saber, the second-ranked of the Twelve Treasures, with his mortal body. If he decided to kill someone and flee, his target would not survive.

“Of course, it won’t come to that. And while I may have no connection to the Imperial Palace or the government, I am the Young Lord of the True Dragon Sword Clan, the greatest sword clan under heaven. In terms of background, I don’t fall short of anyone, do I?”

A clan that had produced a master of the Profound Realm in every generation since its founding—the greatest and strongest clan in the martial world. In the martial world, its name carried more weight than the Imperial Family’s, not less.

“I hope so… For now, you should go somewhere else. Ah, you said you wanted to enter the Imperial Martial Repository, right? I will speak to the officials for you.”

“That doesn’t sound too bad. But there’s something we have to do before we part, isn’t there?”

As Yu-jin spoke, pulling out his member, Ju Yun-hui sighed, took it in her hand, and put it in her mouth.

Meanwhile, the carriage passed through a street lined with magnificent, sprawling mansions where high-ranking officials of the court resided, and headed towards the Imperial Palace.

Hurriedly swallowing the white fluid Yu-jin ejaculated, Ju Yun-hui disembarked with the help of her court ladies, while Yu-jin was guided by the imperial warriors to the Imperial Martial Repository.

“As you know, the Imperial Martial Repository is where the secret martial arts manuals collected from the martial world are stored within the Imperial Palace. You may go and read them, and if you find a technique you like, you can learn it immediately. However, you must not, under any circumstances, take the manuals outside.”

At the words of the official managing the repository, Yu-jin gave a slight nod. He wasn’t interested in any other manuals anyway.

The Imperial Martial Repository.

The name sounded grand, but in reality, it was nothing special.

Of course, being an imperial possession, it housed an immense number of manuals. If you were to ask people where the largest collection of manuals was, a hundred out of a hundred would give this place as the answer.

“But in truth, most of them are useless.”

When the Imperial Palace demanded that they offer up their manuals, the martial artists had done so begrudgingly. As a result, most of them were worthless.

Therefore, Yu-jin showed little interest in the other manuals and began his search for the one containing the latter half of the Primordial Chaos Divine Arts.

However, Yu-jin soon realized this would be no ordinary task.

The nearly ten thousand manuals of the Imperial Martial Repository were scattered about haphazardly.

“They say nothing in life is easy, and it’s true…”

Yu-jin heaved a great sigh and began to search through the books one by one. For someone who didn’t even clean his own room properly, it was a more arduous task than any other.
