The Black Beast's Useless Concubine

Bai Ye was caught off guard. Her right eye was being affectionately attacked by the erratic Prince Jiu’s lips.

She resigned to her fate as her body was still immobile. For the Dark Spiritual Energy, she would tolerate the man.

After Yu Jiuchong gave both her eyes the same treatment, he released his hold on her. “It’s about time for me to take my leave. Don’t miss me too much. We’ll meet again in Imperial City.”

Bai Ye had no love for the baffling prince, none whatsoever! She would have avoided using the jade badge if it meant not involving Mu Yunzhan. She did not like to owe people favors.

She knew nothing good would come from the gift and she was right. It brought her a round of unwelcomed fondling. She wondered if Prince Jiu was sick in the head.

Hearing silence, Yu Jiuchong laid back down on the bed. He leaned in closer to Bai Ye, expecting a response.

“Yes, Prince Jiu,” Bai Ye answered with a frown.

Satisfied, Yu Jiuchong nodded but did not leave. His eyes roamed across Bai Ye’s body, as if assessing an animal for slaughter.

The intensity of his gaze made her skin crawl. In that moment, she believed what the little furball had said to her—the man would certainly devour them!

Yu Jiuchong took one last look at the myriad of emotions flashing through Bai Ye’s eyes before getting up from the bed, satisfied. “Hm… Don’t die.”

Those were the devil’s last words before he disappeared in a flash of light.

Some moments passed before Bai Ye sat up from the bed. The first thing she did was to reach for the water. She gulped down a few cups worth of water.

Yu Jiuchong did not do anything untoward but Bai Ye was constantly aware of the immense power he wielded. He could flatten her whenever he wanted.

Bai Ye felt as if she had just ran out of a tiger’s cave and into a wolf’s den.

She took a deep breath to center herself. Blaming her misfortune on her weakness, she quickly seated herself on the bed and began her training.

F*ck!

If she had Yu Jiuchong’s power, Qing Xuantian would be dead. She would be able to roam free in Qingyun and get to the bottom of her grandfather’s death. The little furball would not hesitate to tell her the truth.

In this world, power dictated logic.

…

Bai Ye was exempted from the two assessments that were being carried out in Tong City. With the Tianxuan army’s protection, the days passed by rather peacefully.

The capture of his soldiers had Qing Xuantian leaving Tong City with his tail between his legs. As for Yun Suqian and his family, all they had waiting for them was a dismissal letter from the courts.

Bai Ye was the talk of the street. Word about her spread through the city.

“I hear Tong City has a 15-year-old prodigy! A fifth-ranked practitioner but she beat up some Mystic Warriors!”

“That’s some exaggeration. I don’t believe you!”

“You’re not up to date with the news. He’s right, the prodigy is a candidate selected by Prince Jiu himself!”

When the two assessments were over, Bai Ye’s name was worshipped by the young people of Tong City.

Unknown to them, Bai Ye had spent the month training and she was no longer a fifth-ranker. Instead, she had advanced to…
