After Niu Zida comfortably finished urinating into Kuroyukihime's small mouth, he shivered, patted Kuroyukihime's fair and alluring face with a smug look, and then the long-haired beauty straightened up and swallowed it. By this time, her black stockings were already soaking wet...
Chapter 196 Meeting Ningguang
Chapter 196.
Seeing Kuroyukihime in such a disheveled state, Niu Zida couldn't help but tease her:
"What's wrong, Kuroyukihime? You can't even handle this much? You're getting more and more outrageous as a maid these days. You're even getting excited while serving your master."
"I'm...I'm sorry, Master..."
Kuroyukihime apologized somewhat flusteredly, curling up on the bed in her black stockings, which were now slightly stained in the middle.
"In that case, you definitely need to be punished, Kuroyukihime."
"Please forgive me, Master."
"That won't do. If we don't punish her properly this time, how can we let Kuroyukihime get excited every time? That would be too unruly."
The elegant, long-haired beauty outside was now pleading with Niu Zida, but he ignored her completely, telling Kuroyukihime to untie her black stockings herself. Kuroyukihime thought Niu Zida was going to assault her, and a blush crept onto her fair face, her dark birch-brown eyes looking at Niu Zida with expectant eyes.
Niu Zida lewdly kissed Kuroyukihime's fair face, then picked up a whip and lashed it three times across the middle of her black stockings. Kuroyukihime was in excruciating pain, breaking out in a cold sweat and emitting continuous cries of agony.
"Ahhh...Master...No..."
"You scoundrel, this is to teach you the rules of the house from now on."
"Then, Master, you can punish me with something enormous..."
"Wouldn't that be a reward for someone as worthless as you? Besides, there's still a plan to be taken, and getting you pregnant would interfere with it."
Having learned from his past mistake of being blinded by lust when he was fighting the sand worms, Niu Zida wouldn't let his maid get pregnant again before the operation. Besides, he had already decided on his sexual partner this time, so he didn't need to covet Kuroyukihime's body anymore.
Kuroyukihime's black silk stockings were whipped a few times. Although she wasn't seriously injured, the burning pain was still unbearable. Seeing that Ushiko Tatsu had turned around and was crawling on Asuna's body again, Kuroyukihime quickly and obediently got up and once again stuck out her little tongue to eagerly add to the fun...
In the following days, Asuna's belly began to grow bigger. Apart from going to Rokusuke's place every day to check on Ningguang's arrival, Niu Zida did not go out. Finally, three days later, Rokusuke took the initiative to send someone to contact Niu Zida, telling him that Ningguang had arrived at Hetherlink Port that day, and according to his information, she was indeed staying at the International Hotel.
"It seems that Ningguang's intention this time is very clear: to demonstrate her strength and openly negotiate and confront Hetherlink."
"Master, what should we do next?"
"Of course we'll go find Ningguang. It's more important to see her attitude right now. Besides, I've already promised Asuna that I'd save Kirito, so we need to see what Ningguang does. If Ningguang is prepared to sacrifice Kirito, I'll lead everyone to forcibly save him."
"Thank you, Master..."
Asuna, clutching her large pregnant belly, quickly thanked Niu Zida for his concern for her lover. Niu Zida, grinning lewdly, pinched her large breasts and said:
"You should thank me, so from now on, put in more effort in bed, okay?"
"I will definitely serve my master well from now on."
"We'll go see Ningguang tonight. Yoru and Misato Shizuku can come with me. Kuroyukihime and Haruyuki, you two stay here with Asuna. Asuna, you're pregnant, so don't come out with me."
After arranging everything, that evening, Joel took Niu Zida and Sanxiang Shizuku to the International Hotel. When they arrived at the entrance, they found that the International Hotel had indeed been occupied by the guards brought by Ningguang. Upon asking, they learned that the entire International Hotel had been booked and no one else was allowed to approach.
"This is Lady Ningguang's residence. Unauthorized personnel are not permitted to enter."
The guards at the gate appeared to be Ningguang's men. Standing there, they saw Joel approaching and tried to drive him away, only doing so out of consideration for Joel.
Chapter 244
Given that she is a tall, beautiful woman with exquisite features, the attitude would probably not be so "polite" if it were someone else.
"I have come to see Lady Ningguang to discuss important matters. Please inform her that someone from the Dore Territory will come to pay their respects."
Upon hearing what Yor said, the guard hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to report it. However, a girl with short, neat hair and bangs walked over and asked:
"You said you were brought by Dorrey?"
"Yes."
"Then please follow me."
With this girl leading the way, the guards at the gate quickly stepped aside to make way. They treated the girl with utmost respect. Joel, curious, asked:
"Miss, who are you? Are you Ningguang? Everyone is so respectful to you."
"Haha, I am a world apart from that lord. I am Baiwen, the intelligence secretary by Lord Ningguang's side."
It turns out she's one of Ningguang's three secretaries in the game, hiding in Joel's arms. No wonder her voice sounded familiar.
The Grand Hotel was also cleared out, making it particularly deserted. This is probably the most expensive hotel in the Duchy of Hetherink. Ningguang really spent a lot of money to book this place. Of course, such economic strength has indeed had a good publicity effect, undoubtedly putting potential pressure on Hetherink in the upcoming negotiations.
Upon arriving at the VIP room on the top floor, Bai Wen gently knocked on the door. A girl wearing glasses and with a ponytail opened it.
"Baiwen, Lady Ningguang is resting. What's wrong?"
"These are people from the Dore Territory, who have come to see Lady Ningguang."
Hearing this, the girl with the ponytail glanced at Yoru and Shizuku Misato standing by the door, then nodded and said:
"Okay, please wait a moment while I go and inform them."
Hearing that Tongguang had been informed, Niu Zida finally peeked out from under Yole's arms. Bai Wen wasn't surprised; instead, he seemed to confirm something and said:
"Just as rumored, the Dore Territory is controlled by a goblin."
"Oh, you knew all along? Kirito-kun told you, didn't he?"
Seeing that the other party wasn't surprised by his appearance, Niu Zida figured that Kirito might have told them about his situation beforehand.
"As Ningguang's intelligence secretary, I actually already knew about your situation before Kirito told us. You fought very well in the battle where you ambushed the knights in Yamaguchi and won against a larger force."
I never expected that Baiwen would have heard of such a small battle. As expected of someone close to Ningguang, their professional abilities are truly not to be underestimated. If that's the case, then I probably have no secrets left from Ningguang. This is the first time Niu Zida has felt such invisible pressure before even meeting someone.
Soon the girl with the ponytail and glasses returned and invited Niu Zida and his group inside:
"Lady Ningguang has already approved it. I am Baishi, Lady Ningguang's personal secretary. Please forgive me if there is any inadequacy in my hospitality."
Bai Shi bowed very politely, and then led Niu Zida and his group into the VIP room. As expected, it was the most expensive room in the most expensive hotel, decorated in a very grand style, and even the candlesticks inside were gilded.
At this moment, Ningguang was enjoying her dinner at a table in the distance, while another capable-looking girl was talking about something while holding a financial statement. Needless to say, Niu Zida had already recognized her as Bai Xiao, Ningguang's financial secretary.
Seeing Yoel enter carrying Niu Zida, Ningguang whispered something to Baixiao. After bowing, Baixiao left the dining table with the financial statements, ceasing her report.
"Hello, Mr. Niu Zida, it's great to see you all."
Ningguang, wearing her signature high-slit cheongsam that revealed her snow-white and slender figure, walked lightly to Niu Zida in high heels. Her waist was slender, her chest was full, and a slight smile was on her delicate face. In particular, her charming eyes seemed to be able to speak, making Niu Zida's heart itch.
"Lord Ningguang, seeing is believing."
"You don't need to call me sir, just call me Ningguang."
Ningguang smiled slightly and gestured for Yoel, who was holding Niu Zida, and Misato Shizuku behind him to sit down. After that, Hyakumon and Hyakushi also took their leave, leaving only Ningguang, Niu Zida, and his two maids in the room.
"Mr. Niu Zida, you've come here today because of Kirito-kun, haven't you?"
After taking their seats, Ningguang cut to the chase without any formalities. True to form, she was a direct and assertive beauty, giving no chance to beat around the bush. She immediately pointed out Kirito's predicament, thus gaining control of the conversation. After all, Kirito was on her side; if she asked for his help, wouldn't she be asking Ningguang for a favor? The fact that she asked so directly suggested that Ningguang probably knew about Asuna's relationship with her… After all, she had such a capable intelligence secretary; Niu Zida had just witnessed her intelligence-gathering abilities.
Chapter 197 International Hotel
Chapter 197.
"Since Ningguang already knows, then I won't beat around the bush. What exactly is the purpose of Hetherink detaining our people this time?"
What does Mr. Niu think?
Chapter 245
Ningguang, on the other hand, didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. Instead, she smiled and asked Niu Zida a question in return. This made Niu Zida feel that he had been in a passive position throughout his conversation with Ningguang, as if everything was under her control.
"I think, perhaps they want to force Ningguang to come out and negotiate with the other party for some purpose, which is why you came in person."
Upon hearing Niu Zida's analysis, Ningguang raised an eyebrow, revealing a hint of surprise:
"I didn't expect Mr. Niu Zida to be so capable, already thinking this far ahead."
Although Ningguang was indeed praising himself, Niu Zida couldn't help but feel that Ningguang's words implied, "You guessed correctly, but unfortunately you haven't guessed the root cause yet."
"What do you think, Lady Ningguang? Did I guess right?"
"Yes, that's right. That's exactly what they intended. On my first day here, the Hetherlink side deliberately only sent low-ranking officials to receive me, just to give me a hard time."
Ningguang slowly picked up her golden pipe, put the straw into her tender red lips, took a puff, and then gently exhaled. The entire room was filled with smoke and a faint tobacco aroma. Niu Zida watched the beautiful woman's alluring appearance and secretly thought that if Ningguang's cherry blossom-petal-like lips were sucking on his big, hard penis instead of the pipe, how amazing that would be.
"Mr. Niu Zida, what do you think?"
Ningguang squinted her beautiful big eyes, her elegant lips slightly upturned. Seeing Niu Zida in a daze, she couldn't help but ask a question. The faint smile on her delicate face seemed to see right through Niu Zida's thoughts.
"Me? Cough cough cough... I just felt that we had to rescue Kirito-kun no matter what. By the way, who will Hetherlink send to negotiate with you?"
“It was Count Polatz himself.”
Upon hearing this news, Niu Zida had a bad feeling. He had already sensed a conspiracy in the rumors of Count Polaz's marriage to Princess Charlotte. Now that Count Polaz was leading the negotiations with Ningguang again, he felt that the negotiations might be very difficult. Would Count Polaz act very toughly for his upcoming wedding with the princess and his subsequent complete takeover of the duchy's regency? Was it even possible that arresting Kirito was his first move?
Niu Zida's mind raced, instantly conjuring up countless possibilities. Ningguang, on the other side, didn't disturb him. As if she could tell that Niu Zida was thinking, she deliberately remained silent for a while.
"Mr. Niu Zida, I have a favor to ask of you. I wonder if you would be willing to grant it?"
"Hmm? What request is it?"
"I hope you can come with me to the negotiations."
"Huh? Joining the negotiations together?"
"Yes, since Count Polaz forced me to participate in the negotiations and put pressure on me, then bringing the Dore Territory, whose relationship with the Duchy of Hetherink is delicate, to the negotiating table, making it 2 against 1, can also be seen as a form of reverse pressure. Besides, although they captured Kirito-kun this time because they thought he was one of my people, Kirito-kun is ultimately a member of the Dore Territory camp, hmm??? He can be considered a representative of us, so wouldn't it be better if we could negotiate together next?"
“But Count Polaz did not invite me, and I entered the country secretly.”
“I will take you directly to the negotiation venue tomorrow. Also, Mr. Niu Zida, do you really think Earl Polaz is unaware of your movements in Heatherlink? Mr. Niu Zida, you have underestimated your opponents this time. They are not those mindless knights in your territory who only know how to fight.”
Ningguang's words made Niu Zida realize something. Indeed, for a nobleman of Count Polaz's caliber, solving problems was more political than military. He had always thought that gathering intelligence to prepare for military conflict and taking action if necessary was too simplistic.
"Alright, I'll leave it to Ningguang tomorrow."
"Speaking of which, more interesting to me than tomorrow's negotiations is, Mr. Niu Zida, is it really possible for you to enter into a contract that would increase your maid's combat power?"
These words suddenly came out, and seeing Ningguang looking at him with her beautiful eyes narrowed, Niu Zida was startled. How did Ningguang know everything? Could it be that Kirito told her? No, it's not surprising that Kirito told him about his control of the Dore territory, but Kirito didn't know about the maid contract. He only knew that his maid had combat power, but he had never told her that her combat power was obtained through the service contract. He had also kept Asuna's matter from him all along. There was absolutely no way he could know about the contract.
"Could it be that Kirito-kun told you?"
"No, he only said that your maid is very capable, but he didn't mention the contract, including the contract between you and Coral Palace Heart Sea of Sea Spirit Island. These are all information we obtained through intelligence gathering."
Ningguang was quite direct here, without any pretense, but the oppressive feeling made Niu Zida feel like he was sitting on pins and needles. He felt completely suppressed throughout the conversation with Ningguang. What he thought and did was all predicted by her, and she even knew everything about his situation. However, he had no idea what Ningguang was doing, and even his next move was arranged by her. It was as if he was being led by the nose by Ningguang all the time.
This constant feeling of being passive really annoyed Niu Zida. Although Ningguang didn't seem hostile towards him for the time being, being toyed with like this was still unbearable.
Chapter 246
The feeling of applause was something Niu Zida had never experienced before in this other world.
"You even know about Xin Hai's affairs? Ning Guang is really well-informed."
"That's not surprising, after all, everyone is interested in gaining power."
"So, would you like to enter into a contract?"
Niu Zida had been put on the defensive by Ningguang's "suppressive" attitude, so he seized the opportunity to turn the tables and question Ningguang. Ningguang's beautiful eyes showed a hint of surprise, but she quickly smiled and said:
"I really want to gain power, but my understanding of power is different. Compared to the power I gain from the Eye of God, I prefer to gain money. Money is the real tool that can drive everyone."
Ningguang's words left Niu Zida speechless. This time, he could be considered completely defeated by Ningguang. From the inequality in intelligence to the gap in needs, he had been completely fooled by Ningguang. This made Niu Zida feel a surge of anger. Damn it, he was so looked down upon by this little brat. He must take revenge in the future. He would feel bad for today's experience if he didn't ride Ningguang hard in bed until she rolled her eyes.
“Mr. Niu Zida, why don’t you stay here with me from now on? That way we can advance and retreat together. If we show this attitude to Polaz, he will have some reservations and feel pressured.”
Niu Zida agreed to Ningguang's request. After returning, he checked into the International Hotel with his maid. If, as Ningguang said, his rented room was already being monitored by Count Polaz, then continuing with the method he devised to conceal his whereabouts would be no different from being a clown. Therefore, it was better to show up openly and tell Count Polaz that he and Ningguang were on the same side.
Ningguang originally wanted to give each of Niu Zida's group a room, but Niu Zida said that it wasn't necessary and that three rooms would be enough: one for himself, one for the maids, and one for Haruyuki. He also asked that Haruyuki's room be far away from his, which was also Kuroyukihime's request, since Kuroyukihime was quite afraid that Haruyuki would hear her moaning at night, as that would be too embarrassing.
The next morning, Niu Zida and his group arrived at the International Hotel. They had been worried about how to handle the situation if Asuna gave birth to a goblin, but this time they were staying in a spacious hotel. They could let Asuna have as many children as they wanted. So, on the night they moved in, even though Asuna was already confirmed to be pregnant, Niu Zida, of course, did not hesitate to call Asuna to serve him in bed.
Chapter 198 Negotiations Begin
Chapter 198.
After a fierce battle with Ushio, Asuna, panting heavily, hugged Ushio, and the two nestled together. Before Asuna could ask, Ushio told her about what had happened that day:
"Judging from my conversations with Ningguang today, this woman is indeed not easy to deal with. I have a feeling that Kirito's capture is not as simple as it seems."
