Bathing Together (First Part)*

P.S. NSFW chapter, you guys! Read it with caution!

"Un. Thank you, Xue," Snowy said softly as she hugged Feng Xue tighter. Her lip was really close to Feng Xue's ear; hence the words that escaped her mouth sounded like a sweet whisper.

Feng Xue's smooth hair brushed her cheek as Snowy rested her head on Feng Xue's shoulder. The tingling sensation triggered her cheek to search for more stimulation. She pushed her face closer and rubbed her cheek on Feng Xue's hair, snuggling like a lazy cat. Feeling comfortable, Snowy's eyes squinted, and a blissful smile emerged.

'Bad! This is very bad!' Feng Xue's heart skipped a beat when Snowy's action became more intimate. Snowy's vulnerable state, which contrasted her usual calm and composed demeanor, seemed to awaken Feng Xue's well-hidden desire.

If not for her rationality and self-restraint, which barely held her down, she would have already turned her head back and devour Snowy's delicious lips and tasted her sweet tongue!

"S-snowy... H-how long you want to continue hugging me?" Feng Xue stammered and wiggled a bit to escape Snowy's embrace.

"Can we stay like this for a bit longer, please?" muttered Snowy, not loosening her cuddle.

"Uuh... just do what you want..." mumbled Feng Xue in a mosquito-like voice.

Snowy's pleading broke Feng Xue's last resistance. She just slumped there, leaning her back on Snowy's chest while recalling all of her family's names from her generation to her ancestor's generation to distract her from any indecent thought.

However, her body didn't seem willing to cooperate with her since the fluttering in her stomach became stronger and stronger. Her already rosy complexion turned redder, and her breathing ragged.

"What's wrong, Xue? Are you feeling sick?" said Snowy worriedly after letting her go when she sensed Feng Xue's body temperature rising and getting more uncomfortable.

"N-no... I-i am fine...I just need some fresh air. I'll go outside for a bit," said Feng Xue while averting her gaze from Snowy's eyes.

"Your body must be feeling sweaty and sticky because I only cleaned your face when you still unconscious. There's a small lake nearby, so you can take a bath there if you want," before Feng Xue exited the hut, she handed some clothes and self-made shampoo and soap to Snowy. "I've prepared them for you. Here, take it."

Snowy accepted the goods and pondered a bit. She suddenly remembered little advice given by Madam Feng. Her next words nearly made Feng Xue's eyes popped out of their socket.

"Are you taking a bath with me, Xue?"

"Eeeh... W-w-what do you say?"

"Won't you go in together with me? Aunt Feng said it was common for a friend or family to bath together."

'Damn you, mom! What the hell are you thinking?! Why are you teaching Snowy strange thing?!' cursed Feng Xue inwardly. Her mother had her own quirk and sometimes liked to put her nose in someone else business. But, this time, Madam Feng really gave her a big problem.

"B-b-but..."

"Is it no good?"

"F-fine... just this once, okay?"

Feng Xue stumbled to find a reason to reject Snowy's request, but she couldn't help but relent to her wilfulness after seeing her sad expression and puppy eyes.

The small pond mentioned by Feng Xue was only around 15 minutes by feet from their temporary shelter. Even though Feng Xue called it small, it was wide enough to break away from the forest canopy's coverage. This place was the only location within Blackwood's Forest where the sun could peek into. The water was so clear that the sunlight could penetrate so deep that it effortlessly touched the lake's floor. Schools of fishes ran here and there inside the lake full of life, contrasted with the forest's serenity above, making the scene look ephemeral.

If it were a normal day, some spirit beasts would be seen gathered around the lake to quench their thirst or hunt some fishes. But, when Snowy and Feng Xue arrived in the lake, no spirit beasts seemed to occupy the place. It couldn't be helped, though. Because of her nervousness, Feng Xue unknowingly leaked some of her bloodline pressure preventing the spirit beasts from coming closer. Their survival instinct must have been alarmed by the frightening presence of Divine Beast.

'Calm down, Feng Xue! It's just bathing together!'

This wasn't the first time Feng Xue took a bath with other people. In fact, bathing together with her disciple sisters was a common occurrence back in the sect, and it was one of the methods to get them closer to each other. Her distress and nervousness this time were truly strange.

'Don't be silly, Feng Xue! We both are women; what's can possibly happen?'

Feng Xue reprimanded herself while absentmindedly undressing her clothes. In just a minute, she was already removing the last piece of fabric covering her body. Her jade-white skin glittered under the sunlight, emphasizing her well-toned bottom and moderate size breasts.

She quickly entered the water until her head fully submerged beneath the surface. She needed their help to cool her head a little bit.

"Fuwaah..." She lifted her head to the surface, gasping for air. Her beautiful face was glimmering under the sunrays. Water dripped from her brown hair made it looked glistening and wet; the sight was very enchanting.

Splash. Splash. Splash.

Catching a splashing sound that came behind her, Feng Xue immediately tensed up. She knew no amount of time could prepare her heart for what will happen next.

"Xue, can I come in?" The sweet voice tempted her to turned back and looked at its owner. When she finally saw Snowy's figure, Feng Xue unconsciously held her breath.

If Feng Xue's body claimed to be a magnificently sculptured piece of art, Snowy's body was a masterpiece.

Her height was a little bit taller than the average woman, around 5 feet and 8 inches. Her rather slim but still proportionate to her height figure complemented by her humongous breasts and perky butt perfectly illustrated what people called "Hourglass Body". Her unblemished skin didn't lose to Feng Xue's or might be even more smooth and refine.

And, such a delicacy served in front of Feng Xue made her couldn't help but swallowed her saliva.
