Chapter 161 Curse Cleansing (*)

"Cough, who told you that?" Xuefeng questioned as he rubbed his eyes. "Although it is indeed true, you don't need to be completely naked."

"And who said I am?" Golden Queen asked confused. "Turn around dummy."

He turned around and his eyes widened. She wasn't fully naked as she said since her bottom was covered by a sexy pair of undies but her chest was out in the open. She only covered them with her arm as if it was nothing.

"See? What's the problem? It's not like you didn't see me naked already so it doesn't really matter," Golden Queen explained as she walked up to him, lifting his shirt with her free hand. "Strip now so we can finish this before my husband comes back."

"Wait!" Xuefeng exclaimed as he grabbed her arm, just as she exposed both his abs and chest. "Are you sure this is okay? If you want, I can only use my hands on your back to cure you. Although it will be much slower, it will do the job just fine."

Golden Queen didn't like this proposal, suddenly gripping his shirt while pulling him closer.

"This is a matter concerning my life so I take it seriously. Don't get any lewd ideas," Golden Queen warned. "Do you think I would jump into your bed so easily and suck you off? I have a husband already. Control yourself."

"Alright… I believe you," Xuefeng gave in, sighing in relief. "I just don't want any misunderstandings and problems with your husband. It wouldn't be good if we two fought each other."

Golden Queen rolled her eyes as she took off the shirt through his head before grabbing his chin, forcing him to stare into her eyes.

"Do you think I'm stupid? If you two fought, you would destroy the Capital, especially if your Fate Spirits helped you as well," Golden Queen pointed out and squeezed his lips together. "This is why we will keep this meeting a secret, got it? I laid down and you pressed on my back to heal me. That's what I'm going to tell him. Do you have any objections?"

"What if he asks me as well?" Xuefeng questioned just in case, but Golden Queen only shrugged.

"That's your problem. Aren't you a great liar? Just do the usual and you will be fine. After all, it is your life who will be lost first. I can always run away while he is busy killing you and wait for him to calm down," Golden Queen explained. "Once he learns what you did, I can also say you forced yourself on me while I was unconscious. I'm all good in every scenario."

"Alright, no need to say anything else. I got it. I won't say a thing," Xuefeng agreed fully convinced. He knew how dangerous the situation was.

"Good boy," Golden Queen squeezed his cheek with a playful smile and reached down to his pants. She gripped the edge as to pull them down, but Xuefeng stopped her again.

"Wait, do I need to take off my pants as well? I don't think it's necessary this time."

He wasn't trying to be rude but his torso and arms were indeed enough to spread his Fate Qi around. Naturally, Golden Queen was already prepared for that.

"Do you want me to be the only one who is naked? It's only fair if you do the same," Golden Queen directed. "It's not like I didn't see it already so what's the problem? Also, when I lay on top of you it will be uncomfortable if my legs are rubbing against the fabric."

She didn't wait for him to agree and simply unbuttoned his pants before sliding them all the way with both hands. She didn't seem to realize she exposed her perky breasts to him.

How could he look away when two bouncy breasts jumped up and down while she stood up abruptly? It wasn't like he wanted to look but it was just an impossible task for him, or rather, any straight man.

"Hey!" Golden Queen exclaimed right when she noticed, lifting his chin up. "My eyes are up here."

Xuefeng only shrugged.

"If you didn't want me to look then why would you show them to me? It's obvious I will look."

"Oh, so it's my fault?" Golden Queen asked, no longer covering herself but instead pushing her chest forward. "I dare you to look at them again."

Xuefeng didn't even hesitate, looking down to get a better look. He couldn't help but nod in approval.

"They are indeed great," Xuefeng admitted honestly. She was the one who needed him so he knew he was safe to do at least this much.

Seeing her frown, he immediately added, "Hey, don't blame me. You were the one who dared me. I never reject challenges I can easily win."

"Are they really that good?" Golden Queen asked as she wrapped her arms which lifted her chest up.

Xuefeng knew she was probably playing with him but he still replied.

"Probably ones of the best out there."

"Why not the best?" She asked curiously.

It was obvious she was trapping him, but for Xuefeng, it wasn't the first rodeo.

"If you ask me to choose between my wives' boobs that I can touch anytime I want and yours then I will definitely pick my wives," Xuefeng replied.

Golden Queen smirked at this reply. "I see, so you want to touch them again? And here I thought you had enough."

"Listen," Xuefeng began with a sigh. "I'm a simple man. Will I ever get bored of admiring women's bodies? I doubt. I don't think I will ever have enough. I'm also not someone who will just close his eyes when someone flashes their chest in front of my eyes."

He threw his pants to the side and questioned, "Can we start?"

Golden Queen gave him a look over and pointed at the bed.

"Lay down on the bed."

Xuefeng was naturally content, sliding on the bed without hesitation. He wanted to finish it before anything bad happens like his Master entering the room and finding them both hugging naked.

"Aha, look at you all eager," Golden Queen teased as she walked up to the bed. She stepped on the bed with her knees and slowly crawled on top of him like a cat.

She was about to cover him completely, when he grabbed her arm, stopping her again.

"How about you lay down and I hug you from behind?" Xuefeng suggested but Golden Queen snorted, pressing his chest to the bed.

"Don't dream. I'm not letting you anywhere near my butt," Golden Queen said firmly and sat down on him, directly on his lower belly.

Xuefeng took a deep breath, calming himself down.

'Don't worry, it's going to be over soon…'

The situation was slowly getting out of control but with his clear and tranquil mind, nothing could defeat him.

"Alright, come. I'm ready," Xuefeng expressed as he extended his arms to hug her but she caught his arms in pause.

"Wait, we need to establish some rules," Golden Queen mentioned. "I can't risk hugging you like this else you will do something to me. I know you have naughty hands."

"Oof, as if I would do anything," Xuefeng sighed, already going crazy. "What are the rules?"

"You can't roam your hands around my body. Pick one place on my back and you can't move them too much," Golden Queen declared.

"Deal. Anything else?"

Golden Queen smiled and looked down at his belly.

"One more rule. You can't get hard. I don't want to touch it by accident if it peeks out from your underwear."

"It would help if you didn't sit on it," Xuefeng pointed out, but only received a punch on his chest.

"Shut up. How else am I supposed to hug you? Just don't be horny, simple."

She didn't wait for him to agree to the rules and dropped down on his chest, cuddling herself with her head resting next to his ear.

"I'm ready," she muttered, blowing hot air into his ear. "You can start whenever you wish."

Her breasts were pressed tightly against him while her arms wrapped around his shoulders. No matter how gently he tried to be, he could feel her body completely once he hugged her. Even her legs tangled with his own, making him think like she did all of it on purpose.

'Don't think about it… She has a husband… Just calm down and do your job,' Xuefeng reminded himself before finally starting. 'Do it, Ling.'

Too bad, just as Ling began, Golden Queen broke her own rule.

"Mhmm… It feels good…" Golden Queen moaned into his ear as she gripped onto his shoulders but that wasn't the worst.

Two minutes in, her body began reacting to the pleasure of his Regeneration Ability and she began moving around. Her bottom began rubbing him dangerously which forced him to put an end to it.

"Stop moving," Xuefeng called out sternly but she acted innocent.

"It's not my fault… My whole body is tingling because of you. I feel like scratching myself everywhere," Golden Queen whispered with hurried breaths and stopped moving.

Not for long.

"We are healing your curse. Stop moving or you might get injured," Xuefeng warned again, feeling her butt rubbing up and down against him.

He knew he was already at his limits of ignorance.

His scolding worked for a moment but it continued right after, slowly pissing him off.

Pa!

Xuefeng slapped her butt, pressing it down so she wouldn't move.

"I said stop moving! How hard can it be?! You are making me hard!" Xuefeng exclaimed, before freezing, realization hitting him.

His fingers were sinking into her skin while her body began shivering from the amount of strength he used.

'Fuck.'

Chapter 162 Mother's Advice

"Listen… I want to help you… I really do," Xuefeng muttered as his hand casually returned onto her back. "But to do that, I need you to cooperate."

Golden Queen didn't react at all, remaining motionless. Her body was still reacting, her chest moving up and down as she breathed heavily.

'Why am I like this…? Why does my body react like it wants more…?' Golden Queen thought, her mind going astray. 'His smell, his touch, and warmth… I feel so cozy in his embrace…'

Golden Queen knew her thoughts would be dangerous but she didn't expect it would be that bad.

"You set the rules and I have been following them. If you act like this then don't blame me later if there are complications," Xuefeng warned, causing her to snap back to reality.

"What complications?" she asked confused, only to feel his crotch with her body, realizing it was definitely growing.

"I'm already on my limits because of all your moving," Xuefeng replied honestly. "If you continue being so irresponsible we will have to stop."

She of course didn't admit to anything, smacking his head with her own.

"Silly, did you forget about rule number two? Why would you get hard?" Golden Queen scolded.

Xuefeng has never rolled his eyes faster than this time, looking to the side straight at her.

"Are you kidding me right now?"

His nose was just an inch away from hers and she acted like she didn't hear him at all, her mind busy with something else.

'Why are his eyes so bright…'

"Just lay like this and don't move," Xuefeng ordered as he explained, "Ling says she already cleared a bit of the curse but it's best to heal you in a few batches. We don't want to strain your soul too much so we will be done soon."

"Wait, so we will repeat this a few times…?" Golden Queen asked surprised. A small part of her was stressed but the rest seemed overjoyed with the idea.

"Is that a problem?" Xuefeng asked as he looked away.

"No, it's not… I want to heal my Soul so I will follow her suggestions," Golden Queen shook her head and cuddled herself into his body. "Don't worry, I won't move anymore."

"Thank you," Xuefeng sighed in relief, making her upset for some reason.

Was she not good for him?

Did he feel bad from her hug?

A sudden urge to pull away and leave filled her mind when Xuefeng continued.

"It is great we are not doing this for too long since I find it hard to resist. You are too sexy and my body can't help but react. Thankfully, we reached an understanding else this would definitely end up bad."

Her thoughts cleared momentarily and she smiled happily. That was exactly what she wanted to hear. She leaned closer to him and buried her nose in his neck, taking a deep breath of his manly smell.

"Mhmm, that's right," Golden Queen confirmed as she whispered, "We understand each other well…"

She closed her eyes and simply breathed in and out, enjoying the melody of his heart. A pleasing sensation filled her whole body. She has never been more relaxed. Before she knew, Golden Queen was soundly asleep, trusting a man half her age with her safety.

She dreamed of dropping down from the sky straight into the cloud which was one of the softest clouds she has ever laid on. She squeezed the cloud and cuddled with it, not wanting to let go of it.

"Hey…"

A gentle voice broke through her mind. She casually ignored it, feeling too amazing to give it up.

"Wake up, we are done…"

The same familiar male voice broke through, this time more clearer, forcing her to react. The dream slowly faded and Golden Queen realized she was in a man's embrace instead. There was only one man she would ever fall asleep with so she didn't even get up, wanting to go back into her cozy dream.

"Let me sleep some more…" Golden Queen muttered and kissed the man's neck as payment when her eyes snapped open.

She lifted herself at once and sure enough, it was a naked Xuefeng laying right underneath her. She was so comfortable that her memory took a while to reboot.

"Did I just fall asleep?" Golden Queen asked confused as she sat up on his belly and rubbed her eyes.

It felt too unreal. She could never sleep with anyone besides her husband.

'What? I trust this man enough to fall asleep in his arms…? How?'

Xuefeng had no idea about her crisis and smiled with a nod, "Yeah, you did. I was surprised at first and thought of waking you up but you looked so innocent and calm that I didn't."

He rubbed his chin while giving her an interesting look and added, "Maybe you should sleep next time as well? This way there won't be any problems."

"How long did I sleep?" Golden Queen asked, ignoring his question. "It was probably just a moment right?"

"Just fifteen minutes, but I'm sure you would sleep much longer if I didn't wake you up. You were enjoying yourself in my embrace, that's for sure," Xuefeng replied honestly.

"That's…" Golden Queen couldn't find a word to describe how she felt. Her whole mind was blown away.

"Normal. That's completely normal," Xuefeng helped her. "My Regeneration Ability not only heals your body, soul, and mind but also puts you into a nice state of relaxation. It's not a surprise you fell asleep on me."

"No… That's not possible…" Golden Queen muttered in disbelief. "Don't put me in a spot like this…"

Xuefeng raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"I don't know what you are talking about now, but we are done with the session," Xuefeng informed and patted her thighs. "Chop chop, get up."

She didn't even react to his intimate touch but when he lifted himself up, Golden Queen panicked, pushing him down on the bed.

"No! Stay!" she ordered sternly as she pinned him by his chest, not really knowing what to do. His eyes gazed at her face but then moved up and down between her chest and eyes.

"You are putting me in front of a challenge here. It's hard to keep my eyes up. Are you sure you don't want to put on your clothes first?" Xuefeng questioned helplessly. "We can talk about what bothers you right after."

Normally she would shoot him with a comeback but she had too much on her head to think of anything.

"I don't care. Stay still, I'm thinking," Golden Queen said indifferently as she tried to focus.

Why did she react so strongly? It was all because of one memory of what her mother once told her. She remembered this conversation vividly and will remember it forever since she has always been following her mother's advice.

"Mom, why is dad not a Dragon like us?"

The scene displayed in her mind once again. She was still a teen Dragon while her mother was one of the Elderly of the Dragon Race. She started getting interested in the opposite sex when her mom gave her the best Relationship advice.

"It's because your mom fell in love with a man who is not from Dragon Race. Love doesn't choose. If you feel he is the one, matters like Race and age don't matter anymore."

"How do you know that you love someone? How will I know the man I meet is the one?" the teen her questioned.

"It's simple.

When you look at them, they will pull your attention, making it hard to look away.

When you spend time with them, every moment with him will be filled with joy. Even if you banter or tease each other, you will still laugh in the end and have fun.

When he touches you, your body will react, wanting more and more of him. You will wish to stay in his embrace for as long as you can.

When you kiss him, your heart will beat faster while your body will melt. It will be the best moment of the day for you, a moment you want to repeat over and over again.

And lastly, when you reach this far, thinking he is the one, try sleeping as you hug him to sleep. If your body, heart, and mind can trust him fully and you can sleep in his embrace, he is the one. We Dragons have an innate ability to sense danger. Just trust the Dragon inside you."

Golden Queen looked down at Xuefeng and couldn't help but wonder, 'Did he just scored perfectly on everything?'

Her body already melted when they kissed for the first time but she blamed it on his Regeneration Ability. Would she still react the same without its influence?

'I'm not affected by it right now…' Golden Queen thought as she glanced at his lips and acted on instinct, not thinking about the consequences. She needed to know.

"Mhmm!"

Chapter 163 Love or Pain?

When her lips dropped onto his own, Golden Queen couldn't help but feel her body tense up. It was definitely something she shouldn't do but she did it anyway just to prove her point.

His own lips were as soft as usual, matching her length perfectly. If that was the end of the test, Xuefeng would definitely score full points. Too bad, it was just a start.

"What are you doing?" Xuefeng questioned confused as he grabbed her shoulders and pulled her away. "Are you still dreaming? I'm not your husband."

"I'm not. I'm just testing something," Golden Queen replied in defense.

"Testing something? By kissing me?" Xuefeng argued but Golden Queen shrugged, explaining honestly.

"Yes. I want to know if I actually love you or if it's my brain that is getting confused."

It was the first time she saw Xuefeng so shocked as if he was questioning himself if he heard her right.

"What…?"

"You heard me," Golden Queen didn't repeat herself as she grabbed his wrists. "Now, please cooperate with me so it doesn't take too long."

She didn't give him time to react as she pulled his arms away and pinned him to the bed. She gave him a smile and lowered for another kiss. He didn't try to dodge her, which she took full advantage of.

Mhmm…

It didn't take much for her to moan softly, their noses rubbing and their lips mushing together. When Xuefeng finally responded to her kisses, the sensation simply exploded.

She slowly let go of his wrists and wrapped herself around his head instead, melting into his lips with pure pleasure. She didn't have to force herself, nor did she have to pretend she enjoyed it. She went full natural and her reaction wasn't staged either.

'I guess I do enjoy kissing him…' Golden Queen muttered in her mind, beginning to analyze the situation when their tongues finally met, sliding and teasing. Her mind made an unambiguous decision to put the analysis to the side for a moment.

She swallowed and sucked, stimulating her inner playfulness when Xuefeng took the lead by grabbing her neck.

'Ah! He even chokes me!' She exclaimed when her body shuddered as Xuefeng squeezed her neck, easily cutting her blood flow.

His other hand gathered her hair from their faces before grasping it behind her head. Just this much ignited the spark in her heart, causing her body to tingle.

How did he know exactly what she liked at every moment?

'This man…'

She sometimes wondered if he could read her mind but then, he bit on her tongue, forcing her to pull it back as his teeth pinched it. She didn't even know she liked it till now.

'Why am I getting hot just from kissing him…?' Golden Queen asked herself but deep down she already knew the answer. She just didn't want to admit it just yet.

Even her body acted on its own, pressing against him and rubbing at full length. She was ready to risk it all when the scene turned upside down.

Literally.

Xuefeng slid his palm down onto her back and rolled on the bed, getting on top of her. She didn't mind the change, thinking he would continue but Xuefeng pulled away instead.

"Alright, that's enough," Xuefeng decided. "Are you happy?"

How could such a short session satisfy her? She immediately wrapped her legs around his waist and lifted herself on his neck to continue but after a few deep exchanges, he stopped her again.

"What has gotten into you? This is not like you," Xuefeng commented as he pinned her down but all he got was an unhappy stare from her.

"Can you tell me what was that?" Xuefeng asked again.

"I told you, I was testing," Golden Queen admitted innocently. "You are not going to release me?"

"I won't till you explain yourself. What did you mean by testing if you love me?" Xuefeng interrogated. "I know you like to joke around but this joke is definitely over the line. If you want us to keep the good relationship we have, please don't do that again. Tell me you are joking."

Golden Queen snickered.

How could she tell him if she didn't know herself? Her body and mind wanted every inch of him but everything else was leading in the opposite direction. Why did this have to happen to her?

"Do you really think you can keep me pinned down?" Golden Queen asked, hiding the battle in her mind behind a smile.

Bzzzt!

Golden Lightning burst from her fingers, causing his body to twitch. At the same time he let go of her, she grasped his wrists and flipped the roles again. Now she was at the top, deciding what went on.

"Okay, I know you like pain but I'm not a fan so I would appreciate it if you don't do that," Xuefeng pleaded calmly.

"You say you are not a fan but you didn't even react. A normal person would scream their lungs out," Golden Queen bantered.

"It is only because I have been through a lot of pain already and I slowly became immune to it. That doesn't change the fact that it still hurts," Xuefeng admitted and stopped her games. "Can you stop playing and finally tell me what's going on? Our case is not a joking matter. Many lives are on the line."

They stared at each other in silence for a few seconds before she leaned down, hovering right above his face. Their lips and noses grazed against each other while their eyes locked in a battle of stares.

"What if I'm not joking…?" Golden Queen whispered, her voice as quiet as a mouse. "What if I really love you?"

"Then I will say that I don't believe you," Xuefeng replied simply. "Miss Golden I know wouldn't do such a mistake."

As a response, Golden Queen closed the gap and bit him on the lip, pulling on it with her teeth.

"What if she doesn't consider it as a mistake? What if she thinks it's a good opportunity for her?"

Xuefeng paused at her questions.

"So you are not joking?"

"No, I'm not. From all the requirements I have, you passed all over them. Not only that, you even topped my husband in every category as well. You know exactly what I want and when I want. I don't know if what I feel right now is love but it is definitely something I want to explore," "Now tell me, what do I do?"

"Nothing," "I'm sorry, but we can't love each other. No matter how great and beautiful you are, I'm not going to risk my wives' lives like this."

She already expected such an answer but it still hurt to hear it come from his mouth. Her smile slowly faded away and she pulled away, cuddling into his neck as if to hide.

'I hate myself…' Golden Queen muttered in her mind. 'Why did I even tell him about it…?'

"Hey…" Xuefeng hummed into her ear but she didn't react. She was too confused with herself to talk with him.

Her grasp didn't have much strength left, so he escaped her lock easily and hugged her tightly.

"I didn't want to hurt you, but I'm always honest in the matters of love," Xuefeng began, his thumb caressing her side. "You are probably confused about what to do but let me tell you something. You have an amazing husband who loves you and would do anything for you. Why don't you recall all the reasons why you decided to partner with him?"

Golden Queen thought deeply but only got more depressed, realizing it wasn't anything special.

"Would you believe me if I said that I accepted him only because everyone else was trash compared to him?" Golden Queen questioned. "I didn't like anyone and he was the only one who seemed normal and treated me with respect. I wasn't really head over heels for him but I eventually accepted him since there wasn't anyone better."

"Well… I believe you, but you still spent years of a happy life together. You even have a daughter with him. Just because there is a man out there who is comparable to your husband, doesn't mean you should forget every moment of your life with him and ditch him," Xuefeng explained warmly. "Maybe I'm not a good example but I would never do that."

"Tsk," Golden Queen snickered at his words. "That's because you can just get another wife and no one will complain. I can't do that. You men would never agree to it."

Xuefeng smiled awkwardly.

"That's true. I would never agree for my women to have another man," Xuefeng admitted. "How about you spend some time and rethink everything? Making rash decisions is not really good."

Golden Queen sighed.

"Fine, but you have to stay with me for a little bit longer. I enjoy hugging you," she demanded, but Xuefeng picked her up and suddenly sat up with her.

"I think it would be better if you think about it alone. My wives are still waiting for me," Xuefeng suggested as he patted her thighs, signaling for her to chop down.

"I hate you," she uttered unhappily and slid to the side, moving to the edge of the bed.

He smiled at that and stood up, picking up his clothes. Watching him put on his pants, she really didn't want him to go this fast.

"What happened with you at the arena when you added another Elemental Stone to your bracelet?" Golden Queen asked casually.

"Oh, the Elemental Bracelet was just telling me the location of the next Elemental Stone," Xuefeng replied casually as he put on his shirt. "It's a Lightning Stone this time."

"Oh! Where is it?" Golden Queen wondered curiously.

"Well, I can't tell you where but I can tell you that the person that has it is really powerful," Xuefeng said as he put everything on and headed towards the door.

"How did you know that?" She called out before he left.

He gazed back at her and added awkwardly, "Her Lightning hurts even more than yours. See you later."

He didn't give her much to work with and simply left, forcing her to watch his back as the door closed.

Her mind couldn't help but return to her mother's scene and recalled one last question she asked at that time.

"Mom, what if there are more than one that I love?"

She remembered her mom's giggle and the answer clearly.

"If you are really in such a situation and you love them both equally, just pick the younger man. If he is strong enough to rival you while being much younger than the older man, his future will be much brighter."

Chapter 164 Come Inside (**)

'Fuck… Why does it keep happening.'

Closing the door behind him, Xuefeng couldn't help but rub his eyes, already getting headaches from what just happened. He already promised himself he wouldn't do anything with Golden Queen, but it ended as usual.

'This is getting more and more complicated…' Xuefeng muttered, sensing trouble brewing in the future. 'He is going to kill me for sure.'

Not only did he slap her bottom but they also made out and eventually, she confessed her feelings for him. How could he react differently than how he did? It wasn't an option for him to even consider accepting her.

'Well, she was probably testing you with that kiss. If you were just a little bit worse, maybe she would change her mind,' Ming pointed out. 'You just had to blow her mind away with your skills, didn't you?'

'Hey,' Xuefeng immediately protested. 'It is not my fault. I'm not going to pretend I can't kiss just to push her away. She should know that we just can't be together.'

'Don't worry, it's going to be okay. No matter what we go through, there is always a good solution. You will have a few more chances to fix it with her,' Ling assured.

'How many more?' Xuefeng wondered, only to sigh deep at her reply.

'At least three more if we want to do a proper treatment. You two should have one daily session and she will be cleared of the Curse in three days.'

'I guess I'm doomed. I swear, women will be the death of me,' Xuefeng commented and walked back to his room, just in case Golden Queen thought of leaving. He already had enough of her teasing for today.

Xuefeng thought of Lisa and Yiren's incoming story. He couldn't wait to hear all the adventures they have been through.

Thud!

A door suddenly burst open next to him, causing him to jump to the side in defense. To his surprise, it was Xinyu, her hair wet as if she just took a shower while her body covered a thin towel.

"Xuefeng! What a coincidence!" Xinyu exclaimed as she hopped to his side and grabbed his arm. She looked at him with puppy eyes while standing on her toes to match his height.

"Is it really a coincidence?" Xuefeng wondered out loud. "Also, you shouldn't go out of the room wearing just a towel. What if someone saw you?"

"Oh! Right!" Xinyu reacted in shock as she looked down at her body. "When I saw you I just had to go out and greet you. Don't worry though, the whole floor is reserved for us. No one will come here unless we call for them."

She moved closer and hugged his palm into her chest, pressing it against her breast.

"Also, there is only one male on this floor and that is you. Since I don't mind if you see me naked it shouldn't be an issue, right?" Xinyu asked with a cheerful smile. She was much more playful and happy compared to the way she acted in public.

'Another one…' Xuefeng muttered, sensing the suspicious behavior.

"Well, then I won't stop you. If you want to walk around naked then you can do just that," Xuefeng replied as he pulled his hand away. "My wives are waiting for me so I need to go. We will talk later."

"Wait!" Xinyu stopped him immediately, gripping onto his arm more firmly. "There is something I want to tell you."

"What is it?" Xuefeng asked on the spot, already smelling a scam. "Let me guess, you will pull me inside and then drop your towel to seduce me into doing some quick training with you. Am I right?"

Xinyu quickly frowned as she slapped his chest.

"How can you assume I would do something like this? Do you think I really need to use tricks to pull you into my room with me?" Xinyu asked with a roll of her eyes. "If I wanted to do some training with you, I would simply ask."

Xuefeng didn't hesitate and nodded, "Yes, you need tricks since I'm busy."

"Ah! This is not it!" Xinyu called out and pulled him by the arm. "Come inside!"

Xuefeng could only sigh as he was dragged into the room and watched Xinyu close the doors behind them. A small blush on her face was enough to tell something was amiss.

"Alright, you were right," Xinyu admitted as she grabbed the edges of her towel and pulled, revealing her sexy body to his eyes. "I showered, I thought of you and I want you…"

"Why am I not surprised?" Xuefeng asked calmly, already expecting such an outcome. "Can we do it later? I'm really busy right now and my wives wait for me."

There were important things and matters of utmost priority. His wife's matters belonged to the latter so he couldn't stall anymore.

"Are you going to leave me like this?" Xinyu muttered unhappily as she reached down between her legs before spreading the fingers in front of him. They were all wet with her juices, causing him to widen his eyes.

"What did you do…?" Xuefeng asked speechlessly.

Xinyu blushed as she avoided his gaze.

"I was showering and I thought about you, or rather, your… erection…" Xinyu explained quietly. "My body couldn't help but get hot. Both my chest and my insides tingled and I ended up rubbing them which only made it worse."

"It's natural to touch yourself. It's nothing to be ashamed of," Xuefeng explained, but she looked at him innocently.

"But I can't end it…"

Xuefeng raised his eyebrows.

"You can't end it?" He repeated. "You mean you can't climax?"

"Climax?" Xinyu was just as confused. "Is this the same as when the girls cry out your name and their body shivers all over? I don't think I reached that moment yet. I feel good, but it's not the same."

She quickly grabbed onto his hand and pressed it against her lower belly.

"Can you help me please? Just show me how you do it," Xinyu pleaded as she hugged him. "I will do the same for you."

She didn't hesitate and grasped his crotch. She grinned when she realized it was already erect from his previous session.

"See? It's already this hard. I'm sure you want it as much as I do," Xinyu commented before winking at him. "Was this reaction caused by my mom or me?"

Ah!

Xinyu exclaimed as Xuefeng pinched her and slammed her against the door.

"I will do it, but nothing besides it," Xuefeng said firmly and held her chin, forcing a kiss on her. It would be best if she didn't ask unnecessary questions and he successfully distracted her.

"Mhmm!!!"

Even though they kissed, her muffled moans broke through as he began stimulating her. He didn't give her a chance to experience an easy mode and went for the hard mode vibrating turbo three thousand. His two fingers hooked her insides to the point she couldn't even scream anymore.

She gripped onto his erection like a Captain of a pirate ship held onto his steering wheel during a storm. She tried to stroke him but the experience was too intense for her to focus on anything else.

"Ahh! So good!!" Xinyu screamed as he let her catch a breath and began kissing her neck till her body shuddered with each thrust of his fingers. "I love it!!"

It didn't take long for her legs to give in, slowly losing strength so she held herself up by wrapping her arm around his neck. With her moans screaming into his ear and her soft fingers stroking endlessly, he also grew bigger than what he could ignore.

Thankfully, Xuefeng sensed her juices gushing out right after with her body convulsing and muscles contracting. She squeezed him tightly inside, but he was happy she finished before his urges got over him.

He pulled out his fingers only to find out something crazy. His fingers were covered in a little bit of blood.

'Did I just claim her virginity with my fingers?' Xuefeng wondered, realizing he might have forgotten himself. It has been a while since he had contact with an innocent girl like Xinyu.

"Hu… Hu…" Xinyu breathed out hurriedly as she gazed at him lovingly and she suddenly dropped down to her knees. Her body was still shivering but she still grabbed onto his pants and pulled them down, gripping onto him firmly.

"Let me help…" Xinyu muttered quietly before she gobbled it down with ease. Her previous lesson seemed to pay off as she immediately knew what to do but that wasn't on Xuefeng's mind.

He couldn't just leave her like this.

'Fuck me… Since I started I can only finish it…' Xuefeng cursed as he pulled her up. She looked at him confused as sadness filled her eyes.

"My mouth doesn't feel good…?"

"It does, but we will do something else," Xuefeng replied as he lifted her leg and locked on her lips just as he thrust inside.

"Mhmm!"

Chapter 165 Emergency Call

"Yiren, are you okay? You are panting."

The girls were all sitting on the same bed so they quickly noticed something was wrong with her. When Lisa saw Yiren's flushed cheeks, she couldn't help but sigh, knowing exactly what was going on.

"It must be Xuefeng," Lisa pointed out, causing everyone to understand.

"I'm good. It's not as intense this time," Yiren assured as she smiled, picking up another Upgrade Fragment. "I can continue just fine."

"Damn, we are here training and Xuefeng is having fun without us?" Nuwa cursed as she crushed a used Upgrade Fragment. "Who do you think he is with now? Xinyu or Miss Golden?"

"It must be Xinyu. He wouldn't risk our lives by getting with Miss Golden," Tianshi guessed immediately. "Even if she straight up confessed to him, I'm sure he would reject her."

"That's true. He is a very logical person," Nuwa agreed. "But he also has a huge responsibility instinct. If he does something with a woman, he usually feels the need to take care of her. Xinyu joining us is already a done deal."

"Well, we should be blamed for that since we pushed her onto him," Tianshi pointed out. "Now that she got the taste of Xuefeng, she will act on her own to get even more of him."

"This is why we love him though," Yiren noted. "If he wasn't as caring and loving as he is, maybe some of us wouldn't end up with hi— Ah…"

A moan paused her speech before she informed everyone, "It seems they already finished."

Nuwa rubbed her hands together.

"Let's see what will be his excuse this time."

———

Hu… Hu…

Xuefeng breathed out deeply as he hugged Xinyu in his arms, still tightly connected with her. Although the session was short, it was very intense. Xinyu didn't seem to mind his pace at all so he just went for it.

"I now understand why the girls love to Dual Cultivate with you…" Xinyu muttered as she held his face, caressing it with her thumb. "Not only can you improve our cultivation but it also feels amazing…"

"Usually it would take me much longer to finish, but I guess I was already in the good mood," Xuefeng commented as he placed Xinyu's leg down. "Are you okay?"

Her whole body was still shivering when she gasped, "Ah! I don't know how can your wives survive such assault. I'm barely standing already…"

"Well, we trained a lot…" Xuefeng replied casually and pulled away while holding her up. "I think you should lay down."

"Don't worry, I will be fine," Xinyu assured as she looked down at their bodies. "We should clean ourselves."

She lifted the towel from the floor and began cleaning them both.

"There, now you are clean, but you should probably take a shower once you reach your room," Xinyu suggested before throwing a flirtatious glance at him. "Unless you want to use mine?"

"I'm fine for now," Xuefeng rejected tactfully and picked her up, carrying her to the bed. "Also, make sure you absorb everything."

He was sure he will get interrogated once he returns back to his wives so he didn't want to drag it too much.

"Yes! I will," Xinyu nodded firmly while looking up to him when they heard knocking to the door.

"Mia!" Xinyu called out as her servant entered the room.

"Miss Xinyu, it's time to ea—" Mia said without waiting for Xinyu's call but froze when she saw Xuefeng. "Oh! I'm sorry. I will take my leave."

"No, no, I'm leaving already. You can stay," Xuefeng called out after her, planning on leaving when Xinyu grabbed him by the wrist. "Can I have a kiss for goodbye?"

He gazed back at her and simply leaned over to kiss her without much worry. They already pushed the highest limits possible so a kiss wasn't too much of an issue.

"I'm going," Xuefeng said softly as he pinched her cheek. "Let's talk more later."

He waited for her to nod and left the room, leaving the two alone. His wives were just a few rooms away, making him sigh. They were the ones who pushed Xinyu onto him which lead to such a situation.

'Okay, who am I lying to. If I didn't want anything, no one would force me…' Xuefeng muttered, noticing his involvement.

He took a deep breath as he stopped before his room and entered inside. To his surprise, all girls were busy cultivating with their eyes closed. He expected to meet them waiting for him by the doors with their eyes glaring but that worked for him as well.

He walked in soundlessly to not disturb them and approached Yiren from behind, hugging her.

"I'm sorry," Xuefeng whispered, knowing not only was he late but she definitely felt everything. "I'm back."

"Mhmm…" Yiren reacted by reaching up to hold his face. "Welcome back."

He kissed her as a greeting and rubbed Lisa's thigh. Those two were the ones who lacked his attention the most so he wanted to give the more.

"Did you have fun?" Nuwa asked and suddenly everyone opened their eyes, gazing at him.

"I can explain," Xuefeng replied, already waiting for such a reaction. Xuefeng laid his head on Lisa's lap and began narrating everything that happened.

As Xuefeng didn't have any secrets between them, he didn't hide any details about Xinyu or even involving Golden Queen's confession.

"You handled it well, but I'm still worried about her change. Wasn't she so in love with her husband? How come she fell for you now? What did you do to her?" Nuwa questioned irritated. "

"Well, I think Xuefeng was just being Xuefeng," Lisa defended as she played with Xuefeng's hair. "Do you remember if he used any tricks on us? I don't. He won us over by being himself, loving and caring man."

Xuefeng couldn't help but get warmer in his chest.

"Don't worry, I made it clear," Xuefeng assured, pulling the girls into his arms. "Your safety is my top priority.'

He gave everyone a kiss when Nuwa pulled out five cups and casually poured wine for them.

"Our husband is too good, causing every girl to fall for him… I am happy to have you but I also want to lock you in a basement. I can't decide," Nuwa muttered as she gulped down her cup.

The others followed suit, drinking their own cups which made Xuefeng roll his eyes.

"Alright, Yiren and Lisa, it's time for you to tell us about your adventures," Xuefeng suggested. "Where have you been this whole time?"

"We landed in the Blood Land, a place full of blood mist and dead trees," Lisa began as her body shivered. "Yuk, I still remember this bloody water getting into my shoes. I don't want to go back in there."

"Ah, don't listen to her, it wasn't that bad," Yiren defended. "We met a lot of friends on the way that helped us. We even found a village where they treated me as a Goddess. That was when we also found Mona too."

The sleeping Mona looked up when her name got called out.

"Right, Mona, you must be a White Nine-tailed Fox, right?" Xuefeng questioned as he sat up and patted her. "How long would it take you to turn back to your original form?"

"At least a few months," Mona replied cautiously. "Why? Do you plan anything? Is it my human body that you desire?"

"Hey," Xuefeng protested. "I'm not some kind of a pervert. I was just curious."

"I think Xuefeng is curious if your tails remain in your human form," Nuwa pointed out. "It is just for research purposes, right?"

"Exactl— wait, no. Ming told me White Nine-tailed Foxes are extremely rare and powerful. I wanted to experience the extend of her power," Xuefeng explained, almost falling for her trap.

"I can show you my power soon once I recover my second tail," Mona informed as walked up to Xuefeng and sat on his own lap. "And I do, in fact, retain my tails in my human form."

"Mona is truly a beauty," Yiren commented, joining Xuefeng in petting. "A true Fox Goddess."

"I see. I can't wait then," Xuefeng said casually. "What happened next?"

He already promised Mona he will try his best to understand and get to know her but it was hard for him when she was still in her Beast Form. Recalling Bella, he already knew what to expect from a Celestial Beast.

"Wait!" Nuwa suddenly disturbed them as she took out a Communication Crystal. "It's a call from Wu!"

The moment Wu was mentioned, Xuefeng immediately brightened. He wanted to call her for a while but he didn't want to disturb her task.

"Quick, answer!"

He didn't need to remind her as the call already connected.

"Wu! How are you? Is everything alright?" Nuwa questioned warmly but Wu seemed to be in a hurry.

"Nuwa! Do you have Xuefeng next to you? We have an emergency. I just received a call for help from the Dwarf Kingdom. They seem to be under attack and require Trade Union's assistance," Wu called out.

"I'm here," Xuefeng announced his presence. "Is that a big of an issue?"

"It's wouldn't be if not for the fact that we know the attacker," Wu replied hurriedly.

"It's Bella!"

Chapter 166 Rescue

Oof…

Everyone in the room gasped.

"How come Bella is attacking the Dwarf Kingdom? Are you sure it is her?" Xuefeng questioned in surprise.

"All I know is that a Celestial Phoenix is attacking them and they are requesting back-up. When I asked for more details and the Phoenix descriptions, I found out it matches Bella, so I decided to call you," Wu explained. "It's a big deal for Trade Union since the Dwarf Kingdom is one of our main providers of ore and various precious metals."

"Why would Bella attack them? Didn't she separate with Drakos?" Yiren asked with a frown. "If he left her alone, he is definitely in for a beating."

"I don't think she would leave him. She would cling to him since she doesn't know Heaven Realm as he does," Xuefeng pointed out before he realized something. "Wait, did you say the Dwarf Kingdom provides ore and metals? Are Fate Stones considered Ore?"

"Right… They are!" Wu exclaimed. "Do you think Drakos got in trouble with the Dwarf Kingdom after he tried to steal their Fate Stones?"

It wasn't a secret that it was his obsession.

"Damn you, Drakos," Xuefeng cursed, realizing the possibility of that was too big. "There is no way Bella would attack them for no reason. What if they caught Drakos and now she tries to help him?"

"Let's go there and meet up with Bella. Maybe we can solve the situation," Wu suggested. "I was supposed to visit the Dwarf Kingdom for Trade Union anyway. How about we meet there? My Grandpa is planning to leave tonight so you can join him."

"Sure," Xuefeng agreed without hesitation. He received glances from the girls but he ignored them.

"Great! I will contact you again once we depart. Love you!" Wu called out before the call ended as the crystal light diminished.

"What about the people that target us?" Nuwa asked right away.

"Bella and Drakos are part of our group. We need to help them first. This is also our chance to reunite with everyone. Before we travel to the Hell Hole, we need to gather everyone anyway," Xuefeng decided as he jumped off the bed. "Let's ask Miss Golden if they will come with us."

———

"Let me get this straight. You want to leave the safest place you can be now right after I told you it's best if you stay here for the next week?" Golden Queen asked confused.

"Yes," Xuefeng nodded firmly.

"But why? Can't you wait till the situation calms down first or just leave the problem to President Wu or your wife?" Golden Queen suggested. "I'm sure they will be fine on their own."

"The situation will never calm down. If someone wants to attack me, they will simply wait till I leave. Now that I think about it, maybe it's better to leave before they prepare anything. The situation is heated right now which is a perfect opportunity to sneak out. No one will expect we leave after setting up such tight security around the Palace," Xuefeng explained. "We can cultivate in the Flying Ship just fine anyway."

Golden Queen rubbed her forehead.

"What do I tell my Husband then?"

"How about nothing?" Nuwa suddenly proposed. "He can act as our diversion. We will sneakily leave while your husband will catch up with us later. We will first save our friend in the Dwarf Kingdom before we meet up in the Spirit Land. What do you think?"

"I doubt my husband would agree to it," Golden Queen muttered. "I should inform him about it first."

"Can't you think for yourself?" Nuwa countered right away as she gazed straight into her eyes. "What's more, we are not asking you for permission. We are simply telling you our plans and ask you if want to come with us. We will go even if you don't want us to."

Golden Queen squinted her eyes at the sudden attack and glanced at Xuefeng instead.

"Is this what you want?"

"Yes," Xuefeng nodded, playing the good cop. "I think this will be for the better. I want to reunite with all my wives and friends as soon as possible. We are telling you because I want you to come with us. I still didn't finish healing your Curse and I keep my word."

"What about the one year promise you made with my Husband?" Golden Queen wondered.

"It's still on-going. It's not like we are running away. Won't you be with us the whole time?" Xuefeng replied calmly. "Once we are all together, we can finally begin our training to reach the Celestial Stage in just one year."

Golden Queen remained silent as she gazed at Xuefeng.

"Fine. I will go with you. I can send my Husband a message once we left the Capital," Golden Queen agreed without any more questioned but Xuefeng could sense she wasn't satisfied with the plan.

He couldn't really do anything about it so he put a blind eye to it, pulling both Yiren and Lisa into his arms.

"Let's go then."

They already informed President Wu about their willingness to join him so sneaking inside the Flying Ship wasn't hard. All they did was use the Palace to get as close as possible before teleporting inside the Flying Ship with all the crew already waiting for them.

"Are you sure everyone is on board? We are not going to come back once we leave," President Wu questioned and Xuefeng nodded in Golden Queen's stead. "Master's will join us later. We can go by ourselves first."

"Alright, we are setting off," President Wu ordered his staff before suggesting, "You guys can stay in your rooms and busy yourselves as we travel. There is nothing else to do."

Yiren and Lisa squeezed Xuefeng's arms at that moment, sending him a sign. They deserved some attention from him after being away for the longest.

"How long would it take for us to reach the Dwarf Kingdom?" Xuefeng wondered, trying to calculate his time when President Wu smiled.

"About two days since we will first stop by at another Land for something," President Wu informed and the Flying Ship finally accelerated.

"Air Land?" Golden Queen questioned as she looked ahead through the glass. "That's the direction we take."

"That's right. We will drop by the Air Land since I have a special surprise," President Wu said mysteriously.

"Surprise?" Xuefeng repeated, finding it suspicious.

"You see, I think me giving up on the Fire Stone is not enough to pay back for my attitude before, so I decided to help you a bit," President Wu began. "I called some people and send orders but it was hard to pinpoint their location. It took me a whole day but thankfully, I finally found them."

He paused and asked, "Would you like to meet your Four Devils?

———

"Well, well, well, who do we have here."

A playful voice reached the Four Devils as they entered inside a spacious Mansion. They were immediately surrounded by tens of guards, all having scars with their expressions wary.

"Are those famous Four Devils that are wreaking havoc in my area recently?" A young man in a white suit asked as he walked down the stairs, coming up to greet them. "Why did you come to my home this late at night? Is it to share a bed with me?"

Xiao Wen, Princess Shan, Yi, and Wuying stopped together, all ready to strike at any moment. They didn't come in here to have a peaceful meeting.

Bzzt!

Before they moved though, a sudden barrier zoomed up from the floor, locking them inside like a cage.

"Do you think I'm stupid? I already heard how you killed the boss of your camp. The same trick won't work on me," the young man called out, his smile almost reaching his ears.

He snapped at his subordinates and ordered, "Kill them first. We will think what to do with their people later."

The girls only smiled at that, finding that hilarious.

"We plan to take over this city and use it as our base from now on," Wuying replied to his earlier question. "We are unfortunately going to kill you and anyone else who opposes us. Apologies in advance."

"Haha, oh really?" The man laughed, not showing much anger at her confession. "What do you think boys? Do you want to change your boss?"

The men only copied his laugh as they pulled out their weapons.

"I honestly don't mind. How about a trade? You let all of us have fun with you tonight and the city will be yours. What do you think?" one of the men suggested but Wuying only glanced coldly at him and commanded.

"Kneel now or a painful death awaits you."

The mansion's lobby quickly filled with laughter but a moment later, their legs began to bend and one by one, everyone slammed against the floor. Their faces pressed hard against the stone, almost breaking their cheekbones in the process.

"Fuck!" the young boss cursed as he struggled to stay up but after shivering for a moment, his knee finally bent and he joined the rest on the floor.

What was the most bizarre, Wuying didn't even do anything yet, glancing at the girls confused. Thankfully, they didn't need to wait for too long to discover the mystery.

"Excuse me, I'm looking for a few beautiful women who miss their husband and want to rush into his embrace. Did I find the right address?"

Chapter 167 Unexpected Turn

When the girls heard the familiar voice, they swiftly turned around. Xuefeng and Nuwa were standing by the entrance.

"Xuefeng! Nuwa" the Four Devils exclaimed as they stormed out, attacking the barrier at the same time which broke it to pieces. It wasn't a competition of who will get to him first but that's how it looked like as they beat all records of speed.

Xuefeng only spread his arms before they crushed into him, giving him the tightest hug he ever felt.

"Heh, I think I got the right address. Did you miss me?" Xuefeng muttered as he squeezed his wives as much as he could. They easily surrounded him from all sides.

"Of course we missed you! How did you find us though?" Wuying questioned excitedly.

"Well, someone else helped me but this is not the time to discuss it," Xuefeng replied as he glanced at the men on the floor. "We should throw out the trash first."

"Did you hear what they said?" Xiao Wen asked as they let go of him unwillingly. "We just wanted to help settle our bandit camp into this City and this is how they treat us."

"I, unfortunately, heard everything and I'm not pleased," Xuefeng said unhappily as he walked into the room. "Who was the one who talked earlier? Could it be you perhaps?"

He glanced at the man from the outrageous proposition and lifted him up from the distance. He wondered how can he kill him when Nuwa stopped him.

"Wait! Let me do it instead!"

Nuwa skipped up to Xuefeng's side and lifted her hand in his direction. Without waiting for his permission, she acted immediately. The man shuddered and a second later his eyes rolled back with his body falling back to the floor, lifeless.

"Done," Nuwa announced happily as she glanced at the young man in a white suit. "Can I kill him too?"

Xuefeng couldn't help but remain speechless, scared of what she could do if she wasn't under control.

"Sure Nuwa, go ahead. We planned on killing him anyway. Once we are gone, he would probably scheme against us so we can't risk it," Wuying suggested, making the City leader exclaim in panic.

"Wait! I didn't say anything wrong! You can take this place just let me—"

"Too late," Nuwa cut him off before he joined his own subordinate's fate.

Oof!

The men on the floor couldn't help but gasp, holding back their breath.

"Nice, this one was much tougher than usual but he still lost," Nuwa commented and she wiped her bottom lip. Xuefeng clearly saw she bit on her lip till blood slipped from it, but he didn't point that out, leaving that for later.

"He was supposed to be a Celestial Stage Cultivator but it seems he was nothing much," Xiao Wen informed. "What's the plan now? Do we kill the rest or let them live?"

"I'm still wondering. They don't seem like they want to serve someone else," Wuying muttered, causing unrest from all the men.

"Miss! That's not true! We can serve you!"

"Our ex-boss wasn't really good to us! Miss, take us in!"

"We are willing!"

Wuying smiled and pulled out a Communication Crystal as she asked, "Babe, can you release them?"

The pressure around the lobby disappeared in a blink, as the men regained their ability to move but none of them dared to. Nuwa already showed her willingness to kill them all and she didn't seem to hesitate in that regard.

"From today onward, the city will be controlled by Four Devils," Wuying announced to everyone. "Any objections?"

"No Miss," One of the men spoke up as he stood up. "As a Vice-lord of this City, I will cooperate to transition the power as smoothly as possible."

His clothes were proper and much cleaner compared to

"Perfect," Wuying nodded and ordered, "Now, spread the news and bring in the people that wait outside the City. You will cooperate with a man named Maw in settling them in and all logistics. He will be your new person in charge."

"Yes, Miss," the man acknowledged before shouting at his people, "Everyone, you heard the orders! Move, move!"

Xuefeng only stood still as the girls handled the rest, not really knowing what was going on.

"Will you give us some time to settle the matter here?" Wuying questioned as she tugged on Xuefeng's arm.

"Sure, but what is up with this City? Isn't it sketchy?" Xuefeng wondered. "Why do you want to control it?"

"Well…" Wuying scratched her head. "It just happens that we became the leaders of a Bandit Groups. We may or may not have robbed a Sect not too long ago and decided to upgrade their Bandit Camp to this City."

"Wow…" Xuefeng wasn't really expecting that. "I guess you didn't stay idle. Take your time then, but I'm taking you with me tonight."

Wuying smiled as she gave him a kiss.

"Of course you will."

Xuefeng naturally wouldn't leave the girls alone, so he decided to stay with them till everything was settled. Too bad, just as he was about to send a message to the Flying Ship, he heard Tianshi's voice in his mind.

'Get back in the ship! Now!'

Xuefeng and Nuwa exchanged glances and didn't hesitate. They both grabbed two girls each and swiftly teleported back to the Flying Ship. They didn't even have time to ask what happened when they heard President Wu's order.

"Perform Blink now!"

He managed to freeze himself to the floor while holding Wuying and Yi in his arms when the Flying Ship launched forward, blinking through space. They swiftly left the city behind them and didn't slow down.

"What happened?!" Xuefeng exclaimed confused, seeing everyone's expressions were grim.

"I just had a vision of the future…" Tianshi explained as she pointed at one of the screens in the cockpit. "Watch the City disappear within the next seconds…"

Xuefeng's eyes widened, together with the Four Devils. They couldn't even react properly to the news when a gigantic flaming meteor appeared in the sky, heading straight towards the city.

'That's a Forbidden Art!' Ming called out before the final hit.

BOOOOOM!!!

The screen brightened with light and the Flying Ship shook a second later as the shockwave hit them.

"Damn…" Xuefeng cursed under his breath, seeing the giant mushroom-like cloud of ash and dust mixed with flames burst into the sky. There was no way anyone in the city survived that hit.

"Are you okay…?" Xuefeng whispered to Wuying and Yi in his arms but he didn't get anything besides a nod. He could imagine the pain they felt as they clutched into his arms unconsciously.

"This is what I was talking about!" Golden Queen suddenly called out, banging her fist against one of the chairs. "If not for Tianshi, we would definitely suffer greatly. I told you it's not a good time to leave when all the powerful experts are hell bend on killing you. This was the first and definitely won't be the last time. They probably guessed we will leave the Capital."

"Wait… So we were the targets?" Xiao Wen questioned seriously as she stared at Xuefeng. "What happened? Why is someone this strong trying to kill you?"

Xuefeng sighed as he showed them the Elemental Bracelet.

"Ah!" Xiao Wen exclaimed in shock. "You have three Elemental Stones!"

"Yes, because of that, many experts are currently after me. We thought we can sneak out without them knowing but apparently not…" Xuefeng explained as he felt the guilt. "Because of me, all those people died."

"It's not your fault. The person targeting you knew what they were doing. They are at fault for their death," Wuying countered as she glanced at everyone. "Anyone has an idea who might it be?"

It was clear she was pissed but Wuying was good at hiding it.

"I have never seen an Art this powerful," Xinyu muttered as she nudged Golden Queen. "Maybe dad will know?"

"I might need to call him but then he will immediately tell us to return back to the Safe Zone. He won't be worried about Xuefeng but us instead," Golden Queen pointed out.

'Do you have an idea what it was?' Xuefeng questioned in his mind.

'Yes, it was one of the Forbidden Arts called Burning Star. It requires a large quantity of Earth and Fire Qi but once completed, the destruction it can bring is immense. It's not really practical since it requires a lot of time to prepare so it's only good for traps or spreading chaos,' Ming reported. 'Anyone who learned it is definitely a maniac.'

Xuefeng repeated the same information to everyone.

"Wait, I think I know who it might be…" President Wu said after Xuefeng's input. "There was this one person that approached me to buy the Fire Stone many years ago. Once I rejected him, he began attacking Trade Union's properties and killing people but he eventually gave up. It might not be him but he is the only expert I know that specializes in Fire Arts and was crazy enough to do this."

"Hahahah!"

Sudden laughter came out of the speaker and they saw a small dot behind their Flying Ship.

"Run, bitch, run! Haha! We will play again soon!"

President Wu nodded, affirming his guess.

"It's him. Crazy Zhang."

Chapter 168 Crazy Zhang

Hearing the laughter, Xuefeng got triggered. Since when did he run from a battle?

"Why are we even running from him? Let's go back," Xuefeng ordered, surprising everyone. "Look at our group. We have more than enough power to defeat anyone in Heaven Realm, not even mentioning some bitch in his Avatar."

Xuefeng's Elemental Bracelet activated, transforming into a full golden armor, signaling his resolve.

"You took it out of my mouth," Wuying commented as she stood next to him, pulling out her Blood Daggers. "I want to kill him too."

"He called my husband a Bitch. No one has ever survived that and today won't be different," Nuwa called out with a frown. "I'm going to wipe him out from existence."

Mona jumped off Yiren's shoulder and sat by Xuefeng's leg. Her single tail brightened with white light only to split in two, turning into two fluffy tails.

"I will help," Mona reported herself on duty.

Golden Queen and the rest didn't even have the chance to speak up when President Wu grabbed the steering wheel and performed a sudden 'U' turn.

"He was such a pain in the ass," President Wu announced, "If you want to take him down then count me in."

"And me," Yi called out, followed by Yiren, Tianshi, Lisa, Princess Shan, and Xiao Wen.

"Shouldn't he be out of Qi after using a Forbidden Art like this?" Xinyu pointed out as she stepped forward. "Let's finish him off."

Only Golden Queen was left who hasn't spoken out but when everyone glanced at her, she didn't have much choice left.

"Of course I'm going with you. I'm supposed to protect you after all."

Xuefeng smiled at the quick agreement and led everyone towards the exit.

"Let's go!"

When they stepped on the top deck with Xuefeng's on the lead, he felt like his group was finally taking shape. He reunited with most of his wives, with only Wu, Bella, and Drakos missing from making their team complete.

"I can see him!" Yiren called out as she pointed at the man in the distance. A middle-aged man with black burn marks on his face was hovering above the burning City, watching the destruction with a grin on his face.

Xuefeng gazed at the flames and understood Wuying's anger. One had to be really cruel to kill hundreds of thousands of people without batting an eye and even enjoying the people's suffering. Just the fact alone made Xuefeng despise the man in front of him.

"Huh? You came back?!" Crazy Zhang cried out in surprise as he finally looked away from the flames.

"Kill him!" Xuefeng ordered immediately, launching himself forward with Dragon Edge firmly in his hand. Everyone followed him, striking with clear killing intent.

Crazy Zhang didn't think twice and turned around, dipping in the opposite direction.

"Who is running now, bitch!?" Xuefeng called out after him when golden lightning flashed past them and Golden Queen blocked his escape route.

Despite being at his end, Crazy Zhang kept his smile high.

"Hahah! Fine! You got me!" Crazy Zhang called out as he stopped running, lifting his arms up. "It was fun while it lasted but I guess I'm dead right now, hehe."

The nickname the man had was definitely accurate, showing his craziness during the first encounter. Naturally, they didn't lower their guard just because he surrendered.

All three Elves Bloodlines activated at the same time and locked the man in place.

"Oof, tight!" Crazy Zhang exclaimed happily before winking at Golden Queen, "It's just the way I like it~ How did you know I like it rough?"

Bzzzt!

Golden Lightning burst out from her hand and struck his leg, ripping it away at full length.

No reaction what so ever.

"Oh, right, I'm supposed to cry in pain and beg for forgiveness," Crazy Zhang muttered as he cleared his throat. "Ahhhhh!!! It hurts!!! I am dying!!! Please spare me!!!"

Crazy Zhang performed the act before returning his expression back to normal.

"Is that what you wanted to hear?" he asked playfully, causing everyone to roll their eyes.

"He is not scared of dying and doesn't feel any pain. Tortures won't work on him so we can only kill him and be done with it," Golden Queen pointed out.

"Yes, I agree. You should kill me and destroy my body. If you don't, I might go to a nearby city and just detonate my body for fun," Crazy Zhang said casually before adding a sound effect in slow motion, "Booooooooooooom…"

Xuefeng didn't know what to say to that. The man was both delusional and psychotic.

"Mhmm," Crazy Zhang took a deep breath. "A burning City. There is nothing better than the smell of burning bodies in the evening. I wish they didn't die so fast and let me enjoy it more."

Swoosh!

Wuying couldn't stand his works anymore, appearing in front of him with two Blood Daggers and pierced them straight through his chest.

"You fucker… No matter where you are, I will find you and kill you. I will make sure you suffer an hour for every life you have taken today," Wuying vowed, piercing the daggers even deeper.

"Oh wow, it will take you some time to kill me then," Crazy Zhang commented with a grin. "Anyway, do you mind killing me quicker? I'm already running late. Got some matters to settle in the God Realm."

"You are playing with the wrong people. When we Ascend to the God Realm, you won't live too long," Xuefeng called out as he extended his hand, displaying the Elemental Bracelet. "Can you see this? It's the Fire Stone you always wanted. Whoops, it seems it's mine now. I wonder how are you going to kill me when I can control all your flames?"

With those words, he clenched his fist and his Fire Stone lit up. The flames burning the city suddenly froze, extinguishing within seconds. Instead of a city, there was a massive crater in the middle with all buildings destroyed. Unfortunately, no people could be seen leaving from within the ruins.

Crazy Zhang finally lost his smile as he glared at Xuefeng.

"You think you are invincible with the Elemental Bracelet? Haha! Don't make me laugh!" Crazy Zhang laughed sarcastically. "No matter how many Stones you have gathered, you cannot be on guard at all times for the rest of your life. There will come a day you need some rest and that's when your life will end!"

He glanced at their whole group and grinned again. "Seeing how many friends and lovers you have, I guess you don't know the main reason why all Elemental Bracelet Owners died. It wasn't the enemies who killed them but rather their friends and lovers. Haha, good luck sleeping well knowing your wife can kill you at any mome—"

Wuying pulled out her Daggers before cutting off the man's head. He didn't finish his words before his body burst like a bubble. A transparent Soul Fragment popped out from inside, causing Ming to act. Fate Qi extended from Xuefeng's body before coating around the fragment and sucking it inside.

'Nice, I managed to grab it before it vanished. Tell Wuying we can track him later using this Soul Fragment,' Ming informed. When Wuying heard the news, she brightened for a moment, keeping her daggers.

"Tell Ming I said thank you," Wuying replied and flew back towards him. "Let's go."

No one questioned Wuying's suggestion as they all got back into the Flying Ship. There was nothing else left to do there. Even though many bandits died, all they could do is move on with their lives.

"It's not Xuefeng's fault, nor is it our fault," Princess Shan announced her opinion as soon as they gathered in their room. "We shouldn't blame anyone else besides that psycho. He wanted to destroy and kill anyway. Just because we were the targets doesn't mean we should blame ourselves."

"It's okay. I think everyone understands that," Xuefeng assured. "We can only move on and focus on ourselves. Is everyone alright?"

"Mhmm," Everyone nodded beside Wuying who suddenly stood up from the bed and walked towards the bathroom.

"I will go take a shower," Wuying informed before closing doors behind her. It was obvious she was bothered by something.

"I will go talk to her," Xuefeng volunteered as he followed her inside.

She was already in the middle of removing her outfit when he closed the doors and hugged her from behind.

"Are you okay?" Xuefeng whispered as he kissed her on the neck and helped her undress. "You can tell me if something bothers you."

"I'm okay…" Wuying muttered after a moment of silence. "It has been a while since I lost a subordinate under me, not to mention a whole group. As a leader, I felt responsible for them, even though they were bandits. They worked hard to change their lives for the better and trusted us, yet their lives ended just like that."

She turned to him as her body lost every piece of clothing and hugged him tightly, cuddling into his chest.

"Don't worry, we will get him sooner or later and you will have your revenge," Xuefeng assured, lifting her chin to kiss her.

"For now, don't think about it. Let me distract your mind a little."

Chapter 169 Reunion in Body and Mind (**)

"How will you distract me?" Wuying whispered and she finally smiled. "Will it feel nice?"

"Very nice…" Xuefeng replied as he kissed her again. "You will love it."

He slid his palms down her back and gripped her bottom, carrying her under the shower. Without even dropping down his clothes, the warm water fell on their bodies as they kissed continuously.

"You are getting wet," Wuying pointed out but Xuefeng rubbed her between the legs and whispered back, "You are too."

She only snickered and began slowly undressing him.

"I missed you…" Wuying muttered, touching his chest all over. "It feels nice to be hugged and kissed again."

"Don't worry, you are not leaving my side ever again," Xuefeng assured when Wuying pulled down his pants, kneeling down in front of him.

"Hello there…" she greeted as she kissed his underwear while gently gripping him. "Did you miss me too?"

Xuefeng wanted to be the one pleasing her but it was what she enjoyed so he didn't stop her. He gathered hair long black hair into a ponytail while she continued doing what she wanted. Thanks to the water, she knew exactly where to rub and tease to bring the most pleasure.

His blood seemed very attracted to her as he grew big within seconds, shooting out as soon as she lowered his underwear, stripping him completely naked.

"I think it missed you too," Xuefeng commented, bringing out a smile from her.

She began stroking while sucking on the tip before leaving a playful bite while looking up at his expression. They didn't lose their connection till she slid down to lick and suck below while her fingers remained at the top, caressing and squeezing.

"Wait for a second," Xuefeng suddenly stopped her as he lifted her up and walked up to the doors. "It's unfair to leave everyone while we enjoy ourselves."

He didn't want to make the same mistake as before, forcing Yiren to handle all the pleasure without experiencing it directly. He also knew his wives would storm inside the bathroom once they took too long.

"Mhmm, sure," Wuying agreed without hesitation and dropped down beside the doors, gulping him down in one swift thrust.

"Ah… You are such a good girl…" Xuefeng praised with his breath stuck in his throat. He was sure he would be milked dry once again that day.

"Hey girls," Xuefeng called out as soon as he opened the door and all girls stopped talking. "Everything is alrig—"

He couldn't even finish a sentence when the girls stood up with their eyes squinted.

"You two started already?!"

Xuefeng scratched his nose.

"Yes, that's why I left to inform you to join me," Xuefeng explained, causing smiles on all girl's faces.

They quickly stood up but he stopped them mid-way, casting orders.

"Wait! Not all at once! Since we don't have that much time to train, everyone sit down and continue absorbing your Upgrade Fragments. Yiren, come here. You will be second in line. There will be at most two of you attended at the same time. I will call you once it's your time. Is everything clear?"

"Noo! You can't do that!" Nuwa protested, but Xuefeng didn't bend to her cries.

"Of course I can. We are behind on Cultivation and this is the prime time to focus on our growth. It's best if we use our time the best we can. We only have a year after all," Xuefeng pointed out. "Yiren, come to me."

Yiren brightened and quickly skipped towards the bathroom and landed in Xuefeng's arms.

"What about you? When will you start your own training then?" Nuwa questioned while pouting, but he didn't blame her. She knew she is going to be the last one in line since she received the most just yesterday night.

"Once I'm done welcoming my wives return and increasing their morales. If we are all in good mood, I'm sure our training productivity will multiply," Xuefeng replied as he pulled Yiren inside the bathroom. "Chop, chop. Let's all get to work."

He closed the doors right after, leaving him with just Wuying and Yiren. He didn't want to split them all like this but he wanted to give his newly reunited wives some more affection, something they probably missed a lot. At the same time, they could continue accelerating their growth without losing much of their precious time.

"Mhmm…" Yiren moaned in pleasure through their kiss as she immediately hanged herself on his neck, making the best use of their moment.

Both their tongues were amazing, stimulating his desires to the limits but it was time to please them instead.

"Come with me," Xuefeng commanded as he pulled Wuying up from the floor and carried them both under the hot shower, wetting them once again.

"Haha!" Yiren laughed playfully as she tried to block the water but he began sucking on their lips repeatedly. Their palms tightened around his erection and stroked together, showing a great synergy his wives had.

He didn't even need to ask when Yiren threw off her wet clothes and let him unhook her bra with his teeth.

"Xuefeng, I want you now," Wuying whispered her wish into his ear as she bit it, causing him to act instantly.

Pa!

Xuefeng smacked her butt out of his own selfish temptations and flipped her over, pressing her back against his chest. He gripped her breast till his fingers sank inside before thrusting from behind with his lips sucking on her neck.

He knew exactly what she wanted. She wanted to feel it!

"Ahhh! Yes!" Wuying exclaimed, her head bending back as he hit her deepest end. Her insides were so tight, yet he slid right through with her arousal at the peak.

Without hesitation, he withdrew his hips only to slam once again, repeating the process till her nails pierced into his arm. Her mouth was wide open yet no moans came through as if her breath was stuck in her throat.

"Ooof!" She finally breathed out as he came to a sudden stop only to strike again. Her whole body was getting tense, but he knew the right tactic to help her relax better.

He cut open his fingertip before putting it up to her mouth. She immediately sensed the blood as her tongue extended forward, wrapping around it with her lips sucking all the blood away.

"Mhmm!" Wuying moaned in pleasure. "So good!!"

Xuefeng didn't forget about Yiren, embracing her body with his free arm. She was already breathing hurriedly, experiencing double the pleasure thanks to their connection.

When his fingers spread her insides, she was already dripping, fully prepared to accept him.

"Xuefeng…" Yiren whispered into his ear. "I love you."

Her sweet confession was like honey to his taste buds. When Yiren kissed and sucked on his Elvish ears, he could no longer hold back.

"Uuf!" Xuefeng breathed out as he burst, sending massive amounts inside Wuying. She didn't seem to expect the sudden explosion as her body shuddered, gripping onto the back of his head for support.

"That was intense…" Xuefeng commented as he kissed Wuying on the head. "Feeling better?"

"Mhmm, much better," Wuying replied happily as she pulled away and dropped down, sucking the last bits of golden liquid from the top. "Everything in you tastes delicious."

She gripped his erection after giving it one last kiss and passed him to Yiren who has been waiting this whole time.

"Xuefeng!" Yiren called out his name happily and jumped on him, her arms and legs wrapping around him. She only needed to lower her bottom slightly to have him poke through her entrance with ease.

"Ahhh!" Both of them moaned as he felt her pleasure skyrocket. Even if his portion was much lower, their heart-beats synced, giving them a completely different experience.

Wuying, on the other hand, showered right beside them as Xuefeng began moving before giving him a kiss.

"I will call someone else on my place," Wuying suggested as she took her clothes and walked back to the room. Xuefeng and Yiren were already in a heavy trance with their lips unable to separate.

A moment later, Xiao Wen was the one who entered but seeing the position they were in, she wasn't in a hurry to disturb them. She slowly undressed and began showering while hugging into Xuefeng's back.

"I'm glad we are back together…" Xiao Wen whispered. "When you two are done, I want you to hug me tight."

He couldn't help but reach for her hand and hold it the whole time till his ecstasy filled him again.

"Huh…" Xuefeng took a deep breath, already knowing he will require some regeneration after the next few sessions.

He thought Xiao Wen will be as explosive as always, but just as she said, she went for a hug first, holding it in for a long time.

"Let's not separate ever again," Xiao Wen pleaded as she relaxed in his embrace. Sometimes just being close to someone was enough to regain the peace at heart.

A reunion in both body and mind.

Chapter 170 The Secret Behind Mortal World

"Let's go back to the rest."

When Xuefeng heard Xiao Wen's suggestion, he couldn't really believe it at first, but her reasoning touched him.

"We have been away from each other for so long that all we now want is to spend more time with you. Although we want to connect with you, chilling together and cuddling is just as enjoyable. We are not just after your body, you know. You don't need to force yourself to please us all. Just being around you brings us joy."

"You are right…" Xuefeng muttered, hugging Xiao Wen tighter. "I guess It becomes less special if we overdo it like this, bringing the value of sex to the minimum."

"Mhmm, I am not saying no, but aren't we going to Dual Cultivate later anyway? Let's spend the time off together, enjoying our company," Xiao Wen explained, giving him a sweet kiss. "After all, looking at the nearby future, we will rarely get time to really chill and relax. Let's use it whenever we can."

"Does everyone think so as well?" Xuefeng wondered when Yiren joined their hug.

"I was teased by you since we arrived in Heaven Realm. I really wanted it for a long time. Now, I would be happy with cuddles," Yiren replied as she took out a towel and began drying him.

Wuying was similar, wanting to distract her mind but it seemed he went a little overboard thinking he could satisfy them the best with his body.

"Let's go then," Xuefeng decided, accepting their suggestion.

He put on a new pair of underwear to not tease anyone and walked out with the two. To his pleasant surprise, all his wives were listening well and absorbed Upgrade Fragments. They quickly noticed his entrance though and stopped at once.

"I changed my mind. I want to spend more time with all of you together," Xuefeng announced as he pulled Yiren and Xiao Wen to the bed before laying in the middle. "Anyone wants to cuddle for a moment?"

He was never attacked this brutally in his life as eight tigresses jumped on him, cuddling into his body as close as he could. He momentarily became a pillow for his wives but he didn't mind that at all.

"I guess everyone wants cuddles…" Xuefeng commented as he rubbed Mona's belly who sat by his head. "We should have short cuddling sessions in between of our training."

"Totally agreed," Lisa nodded, occupying half of his chest which was probably the best spot. "Xuefeng, I hope you don't mind whatever that crazy man said."

"Huh? What was it?" Xuefeng asked confused, causing the girls to look up at him.

"He said that it will be your wives that end your life and that you won't be able to trust us soon," Lisa reminded with a worried expression.

"Haha, so that's what you were worried about," Xuefeng finally recalled, laughing wholeheartedly. "You see, I don't see that as a problem in the first place so I didn't even acknowledge that."

He leaned over to kiss her and added, "I chose you all to be mine and if for some reason you ever decide to kill me, I will accept it, knowing I failed you as a husband. How can I live knowing I let my wives suffer?"

All of his wives' expressions softened, cuddling with him even harder.

"How can we think of killing you when you are so good to us?"

Lisa's question was clearly something all of them thought, nodding right away.

"Do you want to hear about our Sect robbery?" Princess Shan questioned next, pushing the attention to the Four Devils.

"Sure, just don't tell me that you barely escaped alive," Xuefeng mentioned casually only to roll his eyes when Princess Shan looked away while scratching her head.

"Oof, you guys… What happened?" Xuefeng asked with interest.

"It's not like we were dying or anything. We got away unhurt," Princess Shan defended. "But I would call it a close call at the very least."

"You four are really something. I want to know all details," Xuefeng demanded, causing the girls to giggle and narrate their whole story. When they reached the Sect Raid and their successful escape, Xuefeng paused them.

"Did you just say you were protected by a mysterious old man?"

He didn't mind the help they received but the fact they were observed by some old man was concerning to him. How many more experts were stalking them without their knowledge?

"Yeah, he blew up the barrier and let us escape," Yi confirmed, actively joining in the story as she was the main part of the infiltration. "He even effortlessly blocked the arrow sent by that Sect Master, telling him to piss off."

Yi gazed at Wuying and pointed out, "It was the first time I saw him but I think Wuying knows more about him, right? You thanked him for the Arts. I forgot to ask you what did you mean by that."

Everyone glanced at Wuying who suddenly formed a ball of Blood Qi on top of her palm.

"Do you remember how I visited the Blood Inheritance Trial with Xiao Wen to master the Blood Element? Normally, you weren't supposed to get so many high-value Blood Arts yet for some reason I got them. I found it suspicious and it bothered me," Wuying explained. "On top of that, I have always felt as if someone was watching us but I couldn't pinpoint anything. Only when we met this old man did I connect all the dots."

"It must have been him," Wuying concluded.

"Wait, so an old master has been following you this whole time and not only did he give you arts but even protected you? Why does it sound so sketchy?" Xuefeng wondered, not believing something like this could be possible. "Why didn't you tell us before?"

"Because it was just a feeling. I wasn't really sure so I didn't raise the panic," Wuying replied calmly. "I also didn't feel any hostility from him, so I didn't investigate deeper."

'Wait, ask her how did he look like,' Ming suddenly called out in his mind. 'Did he look like a Fate Spirit?'

Xuefeng passed on the question and the girls nodded.

"He did have the golden hue around his body. Although faint, he did look like a Fate Spirit. Could it be that Ming or Ling knows them?"

"I'm having the same question in my mind," Xuefeng said but before he got any answers, Ming left his body, hovering above the bed.

"I think I know them. Don't worry, they are not our enemies. It's the opposite. They actually work for me," Ming explained as she fell down on Xuefeng.

"Who are they and why do I know nothing?" Xuefeng questioned with his eyebrows raised. So many things just came out and he didn't even have an idea about them.

"You probably already met them when you reincarnated into this world. There are two of them and they used to work as Gate Keepers for the Souls in the Middle Heaven. I asked my uncle for help so he sent them to protect you guys. I actually forgot about this since it was Little Ming who did it," Ming informed, scratching her head embarrassedly.

"So here I am worried about everyone once we separated, yet it turns out they were completely safe this whole time?" Xuefeng asked speechlessly.

"Yeah… Sorta. Although they were protected, Fate Spirits that work on behalf of the Fate Kingdom are not allowed to interfere with the present and future. Just because they helped now, doesn't mean they could. As a matter of fact, I think those two are already gone, currently scolded by my uncle because they violated the rules," Ming commented. "Not sure what will happen with them but they are definitely not coming back. I can't even sense them in their surroundings so they are for sure not around."

"Yeah, that old man told me we will never see again right before he disappeared," Wuying confirmed.

"I almost forgot you were the Queen of the Fate Kingdom…" Xuefeng muttered in shock. He knew she was powerful but didn't realize how big that was.

"Ming, does that mean that by being with Xuefeng and helping us, you are technically violating the rules?" Tianshi asked before he could gather his thoughts, bringing out a new point.

"In theory, if I was still part of the Fate Kingdom, yes, but since it's closed and I cut ties with them, I can do whatever I desire. Unfortunately, it only applies to me since I never 'worked' for the Fate Kingdom. I was the Queen. I don't need to follow any rules," Ming explained proudly while hugging Xuefeng's neck who just sat up mid-conversation.

"Then why would your uncle help you then?" Tianshi wondered. "Isn't it forbidden for him?"

Ming smiled.

"Because I'm his cute niece. Of course, he will fulfill my favor even though it crosses the boundaries a little. Too bad, he only listens to me when I change back with Little Ming. Aren't I cute as a mature woman?"

"Of course you are," Xuefeng agreed without hesitation and asked out of curiosity. "Who is he exactly?"

"You know how it's the Fate Kingdom that regulates all the worlds, right? Even though it's currently closed, all the background work is still ongoing. My Uncle is basically controlling everything behind the Mortal World and all the processes supporting it. The Heavens that people often mention, vow and curse, are basically fully managed by my Uncle," Ming answered. "Now that I think about it, you actually cursed him and fought back his Heavenly Tribulation before."

Xuefeng blinked in shock.

"That was your Uncle doing?!!!"
