Chapter 116 I won’t give it to you anymore.
As the human form of an imperial mythical beast, Jiang Li’er’s understanding of emotions differs from that of humans.
spirit beasts mostly stems from physiological instincts and the need for the continuation of the species. So-called"love"is often based on matching strength and noble bloodline.
In her heart, Jiang Bai was fully qualified to"mate"with her.
He is incredibly powerful with boundless potential, burdened by the Dragon God’s divine test, and has the generous assistance of so many dragon elders...
More importantly, their fates are intertwined, and their bonds are extremely deep.
During those two and a half long and tedious years in Dragon Valley, she had hinted to Jiang Bai several times that she wanted some"physical contact"to spice up her monotonous life. But Jiang Bai, that guy, was as dense as a block of wood when he should have been smart, and in the end, he just combined the two tents into one and the two of them squeezed together to sleep.
Although they sometimes sleep in each other’s arms, and Jiang Bai’s hands are sometimes a bit restless... they always fall short of that final step, and that’s all.
"Stinky ginger... stinky bastard..."
Jiang Li’er muttered to herself, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"Li’er?"
Jiang Bai’s voice came from the other side of the tree hole.
Jiang Li’er snapped out of her daze :"Hmm?"
"Are you asleep?"Jiang Bai asked.
"N- nothing..."Jiang Li’er’s heart skipped a beat. She turned over, facing Jiang Bai."What are you going to do?"
Jiang Bai was silent for a moment before speaking,"Would you like to travel to the far north?"
"The far north?"Jiang Li’er blinked."Why do you suddenly want to take me there?"
Suddenly, something occurred to her, and she exclaimed with realization,"Oh... could it be that your Snow Empress sister hasn’t given up on the idea of kidnapping me yet?"
Jiang Bai’s lips twitched:"How could that be? Just tell me if you’re going or not."
Jiang Li’er thought for a moment. Staying in the Lake of Life was safe, but all she did was cultivate, which was quite boring. Continuing to adventure with Jiang Bai seemed more interesting.
" Go! " she readily agreed.
"Okay, then we’ll set off in a few days."
Jiang Bai’s voice was tinged with laughter.
A brief silence fell over the tree hollow again.
The night breeze blew in through the cracks in the cave entrance, carrying the damp coolness of the lakeside and the faint scent of grass and trees.
For some reason, Jiang Li’er felt her cheeks getting hotter and hotter. She bit her lip and asked softly.
"Jiang Bai... are you cold?"
Jiang Bai was taken aback upon hearing this.
cold? With the eternal spring-like environment of the Lake of Life, plus his level 88 Soul Douluo physique, how could it be cold?
But... Jiang Li’er must have her reasons for asking that. Jiang Bai’s mind raced, and he went along with her words.
"It seems... a bit cold. What’s wrong?"
A soft rustling sound came from behind.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Bai felt a corner of his blanket being gently lifted.
Moonlight streamed in through the cracks in the tree, outlining Jiang Li’er’s slender figure.
She wore only a thin silk nightgown, her blonde hair flowing freely, her skin as white as snow, and her delicate bare feet treading on the green grass, like a fairy under the moon.
His crimson eyes were particularly striking in the night, his gaze shimmering with moisture, and his cheeks were flushed with a faint blush.
"You... you go in a little..."Jiang Li’er nudged Jiang Bai, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzz, tinged with obvious shyness.
Jiang Bai’s heart skipped a beat, but she still moved inward as instructed.
Jiang Li’er lay down and snuggled into the blanket.
Their bodies were inevitably pressed together in the confined space. She could clearly feel the warmth of Jiang Bai’s chest and his steady, powerful heartbeat.
Jiang Bai hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and gently hugged her from behind.
One hand rested steadily on her soft waist, while the other hand slowly slipped under her armpit, gently exploring forward with a restrained tenderness.
Jiang Li’er’s delicate body stiffened slightly, but she did not resist at all. Instead, she subconsciously shrank back, pressing her entire back tightly into Jiang Bai’s arms. She could clearly feel the burning heat from Jiang Bai’s palms, and the delicate touch of his slightly calloused fingers gently caressing her waist. Every touch stirred ripples in her heart.
The tree hollow was silent, with only the soft rustling of the evening breeze through the branches and leaves, which made the two people’s gradually synchronized, long breaths echo slowly in the small space.
Jiang Li’er’s body grew increasingly hot, her long, straight legs unconsciously bringing together slightly, with a hint of awkwardness as they rubbed against each other. A tender warmth quietly spread through her limbs, and a certain stirring and anticipation from the depths of her heart surged uncontrollably within her, making her feel weak all over.
As an imperial mythical beast, her physiological cycle is different from that of humans, but at this moment, the feeling of heat, emptiness, and the desire to be filled is so clear and intense.
She bit her lip, and finally couldn’t help but mutter in an almost inaudible voice.
"If you... if you don’t put out the fire for me... I won’t give it to you anymore..."
Her voice carried a mix of grievance, expectation, and an undeniable surge of emotion.
Jiang Bai’s breath hitched.
He certainly understood what Jiang Li’er was saying. For so long, the two had relied on each other, their relationship far exceeding that of ordinary companions. Back in Dragon Valley, he hadn’t been unaware of Jiang Li’er’s hints, but the thought of a Supreme God-King level elder possibly watching the live stream had kept him in check.
But at this moment, with a soft, fragrant body in his arms, the girl’s scent and warmth emanating through the thin fabric, her tearful pleas were like the last straw...
Jiang Bai took a deep breath, and his hand, which was wrapped around Jiang Li’er’s waist, slowly moved down, gently touching the hem of her nightgown. As soon as his fingertips lightly brushed against her delicate and warm skin, Jiang Li’er trembled slightly, and a soft murmur escaped her throat.
"Li’er..."Jiang Bai’s voice was low and hoarse , filled with suppressed emotions,"Are you really... sure?"
Jiang Li’er did not respond , but nodded heavily. Then she grabbed Jiang Bai’s wrist and gently pulled his hand to her side.
of clothes echoed gently in the quiet tree hollow, the delicate sound of fabric rubbing against each other, intertwining with the gradually quickening breaths to create a tender rhythm. Occasionally, a few extremely faint sounds, produced by the gentle creaking of limbs against the wooden walls of the tree hollow, came through, exceptionally clear in the silent forest.
an unknown amount of time, as the surging emotions gradually subsided, Jiang Li’er slumped softly in Jiang Bai’s arms, her forehead beaded with a fine sheen of sweat, her chest rising and falling gently with her breath as she took deep, steady gasps for air.
Jiang Bai gently kissed her forehead and hugged her tightly.
"Does it hurt?"he asked in a low voice.
Jiang Li’er shook her head, buried her face in his chest, and said in a muffled voice,"A little... but it feels good."
She paused, then suddenly looked up at Jiang Bai, her eyes sparkling:"... does this count as successful mating?"
Jiang Bai:"..."
This girl’s thinking is still in the Soul Beast mode.
He smiled helplessly and ruffled her silver hair:"In the human world, this is called love."
" Love ...? " Jiang Li’er repeated, a sweet smile curving her lips. " From now on, you’ll be my male. "
"Yes, yes, yes."Jiang Bai replied indulgently.
Jiang Li’er nestled contentedly back into his arms and quickly fell into a deep sleep, a sweet smile still lingering on her lips.
Jiang Bai, however, was unable to fall asleep for a long time.
He looked down at the sleeping face of the girl in his arms, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
The moonlight flows quietly, like the long river of time, moving forward silently.
