Chapter 154: Cai Family Gave Up?
As Jia Hao opened his eyes, more than half of the day had passed. It was already evening there. So, Jia Hao simply changed his clothes and went to sleep.
At this point, he didn’t care about Cai Yixue seeing him. She already knew a bit about his secret after all.
After a while, he felt like someone came and slept beside him. However, Jia Hao didn’t mind and kept sleeping.
But in the morning, he again twitched. He still dreamed about his face got crushed by two giant rabbits who lived on moon.
As Jia Hao’s eyes opened, he looked around and saw Cia Yixue was sitting at the edge of her bed, adjusting her clothes.
” Good morning, Wife.”
” En, You came back last evening and fell asleep.” Cai Yixue spoke in a soft voice. ” Maybe you were really tired.”
Jia Hao yawned, ” You can say so. How did the talk with the villagers go?”
” I told them that they don’t need to worry. I shall not let them face any sort of loss.” Cia Yixue took a deep breath as she sighed.
However, Her body suddenly shuddered as she felt Jia Hao touching her hair. He caressed her long hair, and his warm breath tickled her nape.
She trembled slightly, feeling Jia Hao sitting so close behind her. However, a moment later, he pulled away.
” Erm, Wife, What do you use to wash your hair?” Jia Hao spoke as he rubbed his nose.
” My hair?” Cai Yixue paused. ” I use the special hair concoction to wash my hair? It’s pretty famous among the nobles.”
‘ The hair is certainly strong and full of vitality. However, the stench…It’s too…weird.’
Jia Hao couldn’t help but smile wryly as he felt a bit awkward after smelling the hair of Cai Yixue. Sure, there are various rare herbs and techniques in Yunlan continent. However, it’s still an supernatural medieval world rather than a full fledge technological world or Immortal Cultivation World.
The effect of the so called hair concoction might be good, but the after effects are very obvious. Smelly and rough hair is a serious issue.
‘ Interesting, Shampoo and soaps are luxury here. I need to get some shampoo from my world and sell here.’
Suddenly, Jia Hao imagined Cai Yixue in a luxury bathtub, applying shampoo on her hair and foam on her delicate body.
Cai Yixue sensed the disturbance in Jia Hao’s thoughts. ” What sort of dirty things are y ou thinking in early morning?”
” Di-Dirty?” Jia Hao was taken aback, not because of Cai Yixue’s accusations, but for her accuracy of grasping his thoughts.
” Is it not?” Cai Yixue glanced at him.
” I mean, It depends on perspective.” Jia Hao replied honestly.
” Hmph, What a leecher.” Cai Yixue mumbled as she got up, adjusting her hair.
” Actually…” Jia Hao spoke after some moment. ” I feel strange after sleeping here. Most of time, I feel like someone huggingme or suffocating me during my sleep.”
” Is-Is that so?” Cai Yixue’s tone had a slight tremble before she adjusted. ” Why do you think so?”
” I just don’t know…It feels suffocating, but also…pretty big, soft and comfy…” Jia Hao frowned.
” Hmph, Must be your imagination.” Cai Yixue spoke as she walked out. ” I shall ask Minmin to fetch mouth washing tea and water basin.”
Jia Hao didn’t understand Cai Yixue’s reaction. He thought that it was probably one of those ‘women (coffee emoji)’ moments.
As Minmin saw Cai Yixue’s flustered expression, she couldn’t help but sigh. ” What happened, Miss?”
” I…I did that again.” Cai Yixue sighed.
” Why don’t you just admit it to him?” Minmin couldn’t help but sigh. ” Hugging him to sleep isn’t that…”
” I can’t!” Cai Yixue protested. ” It would be far too embarrassing. Besides, What if he thinks of me weirdly?”
” If you don’t open up to him, What if that witch Xu Chenlan steals him away?” Minmin replied curtly.
” Minmin, Are you coming?”
Jia Hao called her, making Minmin haste. Cai Yixue glanced at Minmin who rushed to the bedroom with a sigh.
Jia Hao saw Minmin entering his room. ” Morning, Minmin.”
” Good morning, Young Master.” Minmin smiled. ” Please, Wash your face.”
Jia Hao nodded as he washed his face. ” Anyway, Minmin, Call some trustworthy people. And, Help to gather some information.”
” Information? What sort of information? Minmin tilted her head. Jia Hao looked at her with a coy grin. ” Well, For example, where all the silk of Silkward Chambers are stored?”
” I heard it’s Niu Family.” Minmin didn’t waste any time before answering Jia Hao. ” Young Miss already gathered important information regarding the Silkward Chambers.”
” Very well.” Jia Hao grinned. ” Ask all the villagers to deposit the first batch of silk to us till this evening.”
” Are you sure?” Minmin was surprised. However, seeing Jia Hao’s resolute expression, she nodded.
” Very well, I shall talk with Young Miss regarding this.”
” Also, Ask Uncle Yang to come with a few men.” Jia Hao grinned. We need to prepare a gift for our enemies after all.”

Jia Hao got up leisurely as he finished his routine and walked to the garden. Looking at the sky, he couldn’t help but think how rich the air was here compared to Tianshu Nation.
Taking out a dagger, he started to practice his Swift Dagger Arts. Since he learned that from the Pot of Miracles, he felt that the skill blended with him naturally.
‘ I killed quite some people last night. Yet, none of them dropped any skill cards like Yunlan Continent’s people. Is it because the humans in Azure Sea World is inherently weaker than Yunlan Continent’s people? Making them not dropping any card?’
It wasn’t like no one in Azure Sea World could drop such cards. In fact, Li Tao dropped a card after Jia Hao killed him.
But it was called [Evil Tendency] and its effect were to increase the evil thoughts in a person.
‘ Cultivating the Six Desires Myriad Thought Arts, I can’t afford to get any thing that will affect my mental state.’
Thus, Jia Hao didn’t pick it that. He wondered if he would kill some more talented people, he might get better skill cards.
As Cai Yixue heard from Minmin, she thought for a moment before agreeing.
Soon, the villagers heard the news and hurried back to their village to bring the first batch.
” What? They agreed to our demands?”
Shen Liang raised his brows as he heard the reports from his spies.
” Heh, Looks like their tricks are finished.”
Lian Luoqiu frowned when she heard the rumors. ” They gave in that easily? Something isn’t right…”
” Check the goods properly before bringing them into the warehouse.”
” Also, double the labors and security in Niu Family. I don’t want anything to happen.”
” Yes, Young Miss.”
Lian Luoqiu looked at the sky and muttered.
‘ Have I finally won?’
‘ Cai Yixue, Oh Cai Yixue, I shall pin the final nail in Cai Family’s coffin.’
