Chapter 223 Stop By
The Ice Goddess did not answer immediately. She looked into Ciel's eyes and her gaze instantly became sharper.
"I heard you met the Elf Queen," she said suddenly.
Who knows how she knew about that. Ciel was sure it wasn't from Mu Yixue, but she was probably aware of their movements with the various situations now.
"Goddess, I'm sure there's nothing wrong with me meeting the Elf Queen," Ciel replied calmly.
The Ice Goddess could not manage him, he was the one who managed the woman. Of course, Ciel wouldn't act like he had done anything wrong.
As he said, there was nothing wrong if he met the Elf Queen.
The Ice Goddess fell silent after hearing his words, clearly realizing that Ciel was the only human she could not manage.
In the end, she glanced at Roxanne before looking at Ciel again.
"You and Roxanne will go to the Heaven Realm to meet your fiancé," she said, much to Ciel's surprise.
Meeting Yelina? Ciel would naturally be happy to do so.
He was now already at the Demigod Third Stage. That meant he could sleep with her.
Only, Ciel wasn't sure why the Ice Goddess seemed like she was sending him there.
"Goddess, is there a reason you sent me to the Heaven Realm?" asked Ciel to make sure.
He narrowed his eyes to stare into the Ice Goddess's cold eyes.
Unfortunately, the woman's eyes did not show the slightest ripple of doubt.
"It's about time you went there," the woman replied indifferently.
Ciel finally looked at Roxanne whose expression had barely changed.
After that, he nodded.
"Okay, let's go now."
Right after he said that, Roxanne finally took a step towards him.
"Follow me," she said as she passed by him.
Ciel stared at Mu Yixue for a while.
Without saying anything, he followed Roxanne.
When they arrived outside the palace, Roxanne waved her hand, taking out something similar to an airplane. It seemed to have very advanced technology with its futuristic design.
It was actually very large, almost as big as the palace courtyard itself.
When the door opened, a long staircase descended from it.
Roxanne then walked to the stairs to board the airship, followed closely by Ciel.
The inside was different from the airplane. It looked like the living room of a house with sofas on the sides of the windows and there were quite a few rooms.
"Have a seat," Roxanne said to Ciel, pointing her hand at the sofa.
When Ciel sat down, she closed the airplane's door.
After that, she approached Ciel again and sat directly opposite him with her legs crossed.
She was still wearing her armor, but she was really alluring while sitting, especially her legs that were exposed up to halfway up her thighs.
Ciel could not help but stare at her face directly, observing it only to find that there was not a single flaw on her face.
She was truly a woman with a very beautiful face.
As she sat down, the airship finally moved, reaching the sky in an instant before continuing to fly at an extremely high speed.
Being stared at by Ciel constantly, Roxanne finally looked uncomfortable so her brows furrowed.
"Why do you keep staring at me?" she asked.
"What else can I stare at when I have such a beautiful face in front of me?" Ciel replied.
This was not flirting, Ciel was just speaking the truth.
He was sure others would do the same as long as they had the same courage as him.
After hearing his words, Roxanne finally remembered that Ciel was a playboy.
"I'm not like Rin, don't think weird things about me," she said, reminding Ciel.
Eight years ago her mind had been a bit muddled, but she had strengthened her heart in these eight years.
She would not allow her mind to be muddled again by things she found ridiculous.
Ciel only smiled at her words. He did not say anything, but continued to stare at her face.
"You?" Roxanne in the end was not only distracted, but felt uncomfortable as there was a certain tremor in her heart as she continued to be stared at by Ciel.
A strong heart and mind would not change the fact that she was a normal woman.
It might not be easy to get her distracted by a man's appearance, but how about Ciel's appearance.
He looked handsome and enchanting even to the eyes of the gods.
"Sister Roxanne, why don't we become lovers?" Ciel asked her, expressing his thoughts to her.
Roxanne's mouth opened slightly, looking like she was in shock.
"Don't say nonsense or I won't escort you to the Heavenly Realm," she said, responding to Ciel with a threat.
Of course, Ciel was not afraid. He was sure this woman wouldn't dare to do that because this was the duty of the Ice Goddess.
"Come on, it's just a request, you have the right to refuse or agree," Ciel replied.
"I won't agree to something like this," Roxanne replied.
"The human mind is a fickle thing. Yeah, you refuse now, but not necessarily later."
Roxanne, "..."
"You stay here!" The woman finally stood up, and stepped into a room on the airplane.
It seemed that she really did not want to be bothered with something like this so she chose to avoid.
Little did she know that Ciel could still watch her even if she was inside the room.
Although Ciel did not plan to look for her disgrace, he thought it was fine just to see her in the room.
He was sure she would not do anything strange.
It was just that, she apparently leaned against the door she had closed, put her hand on her chest, and stabilized her breathing which had somehow become somewhat chaotic.
Perhaps it was caused by the tremors of her heart.
"Why did my mind become chaotic again?" She wondered.
After that, she went to bed, sat cross-legged, and meditated.
As Ciel had expected, she really wasn't trying to do anything strange.
That turned out to be rather disappointing for Ciel, and he quickly became bored of having to be there alone.
With no other options, he could only look at the scenery through the window.
The airship was indeed very fast. Even with his current strength, he would be far behind.
It passed continent after continent.
In less than a day, Ciel saw the Eternal Desert Continent ahead, something that reminded him of Yasmin.
"Sister Roxanne, please stop!" said Ciel in a loud voice as he stood up.
Since he was passing by, there was no way he wouldn't stop to look at his wife.
Middle-aged women like Madam Zhou and Madam Maya might not have changed much in these eight years, but Yasmin was still of the same generation as him even though she was a little older.
Eight years must have made her go through some changes.
For Ciel, he at least needed to spend the night with her.
The airplane immediately stopped after Ciel shouted.
Then, the door opened, but Roxanne did not come out of her room.
"I'll wait for you here!" Her voice echoed.
Ciel didn't answer, he jumped straight to the door.
After jumping, he flew over the Eternal Desert Continent, heading towards Yasmin's residence at full speed.
Even among Demigods, it was hard to find one faster than him, so he was able to arrive at the city where Yasmin's residence was located.
The city was still the same as last time.
People came and went from nowhere and to nowhere.
Ciel quickly found Yasmin's residence.
Only, he couldn't help but furrow his brows as he didn't sense Yasmin's presence.
Confused, he finally used the Eyes of Heaven to look directly into the residence.
As it turned out, Yasmin was indeed not there.
However, he saw Aunt Hala in the living room, meditating.
Although eight years had passed, the woman's cultivation was still the same, at the Fourth Demigod Stage, something that was actually natural as it was not easy to break through from that stage.
Ciel then flew to the residence, entering it directly to Aunt Hala's surprise.
"Who?" The woman opened her eyes and stood up in an instant.
However, she was a little surprised when she saw Ciel, who despite his mature appearance, she still recognized in an instant.
"Prince," she said spontaneously.
"Aunt Hala, where's Yasmin?" asked Ciel as he approached her.
When asked about it, the woman suddenly showed a surprised expression, making Ciel feel an unpleasant premonition.
"Don't tell me she's not here?" he asked again.
Seeing Ciel's expression become serious, Hala hastily replied, "Prince, Yasmin only left. She has gone to the Heaven Realm since she became a Demigod to train there."
"To the Heaven Realm? Do you know the exact place she is?" asked Ciel again with a furrowed brow.
Unfortunately, Hala shook her head.
"She never told me about that. However, I can guarantee that she is fine because she sometimes sends some resources for me," she said.
