Chapter 54 A Day Apart Feels Like Three Autumns: The Birth of a New God
The boy's smile froze abruptly at the sound. His fist, clenched between his trouser seams, tightened instantly. The voice was so familiar. He slowly moved his body, stiffly turning backward. Before his face was revealed, a smile had already returned to his face, as if he hadn't been discovered at all.
"elder sister?"
The boy's expression clearly showed surprise, as if he was wondering why the person behind him was there. If the scene were different, Jiang Yuemian would really think that she had wronged him. However, now, with witnesses and evidence, he had no choice but to reveal his true colors.
Indeed, the people behind the boy were Jiang Yuemian and Shen Que. Just a moment ago they were still far away, but in an instant they were behind the boy, which was quite terrifying. However, that terror has now disappeared. The boy has finally calmed down and is as normal as ever.
"What are my sister and brother doing here?"
Jiang Yuemian carefully examined the boy. This boy was none other than the boy who sold candied hawthorns when they first entered the city. The boy was still wearing the same clothes, but he had more injuries on his head.
Jiang Yuemian observed his expression; he seemed genuinely nervous.
"What are you doing here?" You can't be out having fun, that's too far-fetched.
Boy: "I...I came outside the city to pick hawthorns."
Oh, picking hawthorns, that's a good excuse, but where are his hawthorns?
"I haven't picked any yet. I was passing by when the figure looked familiar, so I took a look."
The boy's words left her speechless. But could anything in the world be completely flawless? Jiang Yuemian certainly didn't believe so.
"Alright, stop pretending. If you were really a kid selling candied hawthorns, your clothes wouldn't be this new." That's right, they were new. Although he had many patches on his clothes, they were too new. Moreover, his face was too clean. Apart from the wounds, there wasn't even a single pimple or ash. This was too abnormal. A child from a poor family would definitely not look like this.
The boy's smile froze instantly. He was clearly taken aback by the sudden remark, but he was quick to react.
"Sister, what are you saying? I just came to pick a hawthorn. Why, why are you doing this?"
The boy looked extremely aggrieved; his beautiful almond-shaped eyes were brimming with tears, and the tip of his nose was red. If a normal person saw this, they would surely feel sorry for him and try to comfort him gently.
Shen Que's brow twitched slightly at the sight of the young man. He pursed his lips; this boy certainly knew how to put on an act. His master had always fallen for this. If...
Clearly, Shen Que's worries were unfounded; Jiang Yuemian was no ordinary person.
"If you want to see me, you will come to me. I know that."
"So, stop acting like this..." Jiang Yuemian looked at his tears with disdain. "Shameless." She was only interested in A-Que's crying. This guy was really something. Even though they were enemies, he still had the nerve to act like this. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was the one who did it.
Upon hearing Jiang Yuemian's words, the boy stopped crying. He wiped away his tears with his hand without expression, and then a smile that seemed to be both joyful and self-deprecating appeared on his face.
"Sister, you still recognize me. But I disguised myself so well. I'm really curious if you would have recognized me if you hadn't noticed this flaw." The boy's voice carried a unique blend of youthful innocence and the deep, mature quality of a man. His voice reached their ears.
"Of course I'll recognize you."
Upon hearing Jiang Yuemian's words, the boy's eyes lit up instantly. He moved his lips slightly as if he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Jiang Yuemian continued.
"I recognize you because you are the one who killed me, so naturally I would want to get rid of you as soon as possible."
The light in the boy's eyes went out, and then it was replaced by hatred. He stared at her as if trying to see through her to the depths of her soul.
He pushed back.
"Sister, we will meet again."
Then, the boy disappeared from their side in the blink of an eye, leaving only his voice echoing in the sky.
"My name is Jiang Du, the Du as in 'to cross oneself'."
Jiang Yuemian's expression changed instantly. Shen Que wanted to chase after him, but Jiang Yuemian stopped him with her hand: "A Que, you can't catch up."
Chen Que's serious expression instantly changed, his eyes becoming dark and unfathomable, before he stepped back.
"Ah Que, let's go back."
"good."
………
Inside the Demon Lord's palace, Shen Que sat next to Jiang Yuemian with his lips pursed, hesitant to speak.
"Ah Que, say whatever you want to say."
Jiang Yuemian couldn't bear to see Shen Que like this; he looked so pitiful that she wanted to devour him.
Only after receiving Jiang Yuemian's permission did Shen Que open his mouth: "Master, is he...?"
"yes."
Shen Que's fist hardened instantly, his eyes dark and unfathomable...
In an instant, Jiang Yuemian's hand enveloped Shen Que's hand. The Immortal Venerable's hand was very white, and Shen Que's hand was also very white. The two fair hands clasped together like two pieces of beautiful jade. However, the clasping lasted only a short time. Jiang Yuemian immediately released Shen Que's hand, and Shen Que regretfully touched the back of his hand.
"Ah Que, don't think about it anymore. What's already happened is no longer important. We have more pressing matters to attend to now."
Shen Que was indeed drawn in by Jiang Yuemian's words.
"Master, what is it?" What could be more important than finding out who the mastermind is?
Jiang Yuemian's expression suddenly turned serious, which also made Shen Que serious. The two serious faces looked at each other, and then Jiang Yuemian spoke seriously: "Of course..." Jiang Yuemian whispered in Shen Que's ear.
As expected, Shen Que broke down, and his ears suddenly turned red.
[Mianmian!!! Do you even remember you're a girl?! Don't keep thinking about this! Am I going to be locked in the dark room again?!] 001 jumped back and forth anxiously in front of Jiang Yuemian.
Jiang Yuemian didn't care about it at all. She missed him so much. It had been so long since she and A-Que had been together. Even in the illusion, she missed him terribly. Today, she had to have some meat, no matter what. So, she had to make a scene with Shen Que and force him to agree to her request.
Shen Que's expression remained subtle, and he did not answer Jiang Yuemian's question, which made Jiang Yuemian somewhat impatient.
"Ah, yes, Ah, give it to me! Think about it, a day apart feels like three autumns, and how many autumns have passed already!"
Shen Que blushed at what she said, and her eyes showed some interest, but she still seemed to be hesitating.
Jiang Yuemian continued to press, "Okay, Ah Que, don't you miss me?" She instantly put on a hurt expression, as if to say, "If you say you don't miss me, then this is never going to end," which made Shen Que nod in agreement.
"Yay!!" Jiang Yuemian couldn't wait any longer and pounced over instantly.
Both of them had already bathed and were wearing their undergarments. Jiang Yuemian carefully smelled the fragrance on Shen Que's body, while Shen Que felt the heat surging onto his neck and his body underwent a change.
Jiang Yuemian exclaimed in delight: "A-Que!"
Shen Que lowered his head and said, "Mm."
Jiang Yuemian was delighted and kissed Shen Que. Shen Que let out a muffled groan, which excited Jiang Yuemian even more. She instantly pressed her lips to Shen Que's lips, stealing the air from his mouth. Their lips rubbed together gently, making Shen Que's eyes involuntarily glaze over.
Jiang Yuemian kissed Shen Que's Adam's apple again, and Shen Que's throat bobbed as soon as she touched it. Shen Que felt he couldn't take it anymore; he also wanted to kiss his master, but at that moment, Jiang Yuemian stopped—stopped in every sense of the word.
Shen Que was caught in a dilemma. He anxiously opened his eyes and saw Jiang Yuemian smiling at him, her eyes seeming to want to devour him. But even so, she didn't continue. Shen Que could only hook his arm around Jiang Yuemian's neck and urge her on.
The two of them didn't take off their clothes and just hugged each other. They were both covered in sweat. Jiang Yuemian continued to tease Shen Que. When they finished their playful fight with smiles on their faces, they were both covered in sweat. Shen Que's body was weak and Jiang Yuemian was also exhausted. Neither of them mentioned taking a shower. They just hugged each other and breathed into each other's ears.
Shen Que felt that he really, really loved his master, and loved every emotion his master was in.
Jiang Yuemian also thought Shen Que was very cute. How could she be so cute? The two of them felt happy just by holding her.
However, even so, Shen Que was still shy when he realized what was happening. He stopped talking and buried his face in the blanket as if he were burying his head in the sand. His face was flushed red. All he could hear was Jiang Yuemian's low laughter. Shen Que felt his ears burning even hotter.
Afterwards, Jiang Yuemian pulled Shen Que out and buried her face in his chest, tracing circles on his chest with her fingers, which made Shen Que tense up again.
"Ah Que, good Ah Que, aren't you afraid of boring yourself to death?"
Since Shen Que did not answer, Jiang Yuemian changed the subject again.
"Ah, are you jealous today?" Definitely.
"Because he called me 'sister'?"
"I don't know him, and besides, he's...the one I like the most."
Seeing that Shen Que didn't answer, Jiang Yuemian continued to coax, "Ah Que, I like you so much. Look, I wish I could be with you all the time. You... um..."
Shen Que covered Jiang Yuemian's mouth to make sure she stopped talking nonsense before releasing her.
"Ah Que~~ Don't be jealous. His crying is useless. Look, have I even glanced at you? My heart is all with you. You see, when you were crying just now, I even wanted to give you my heart!"
Shen Que's ears turned bright red. Fine, as long as Master is happy, he won't be jealous. After all, Master has used all his strength on him.
Seeing that Shen Que was better, Jiang Yuemian conveniently gave him a quick "smack" on the cheek, and then the two of them got out of bed to take a shower.
Of course, they took a bath together. Given their relationship, why would they need to bathe separately? However, neither of them was in the mood to think about anything else this time, as they were both quite tired. Jiang Yuemian and Shen Que quickly finished bathing and then slid into bed. Jiang Yuemian held Shen Que in her arms, and the two drifted off to sleep.
...
As night fell, the phoenix bone on the table suddenly emitted a light, which slowly traveled to the two people and then darted into their minds.
Jiang Yuemian felt as if she were suddenly drifting on a boundless silver sea, unfamiliar and damp. She didn't know how much time had passed before she transformed into human form and learned her name: Jiang Yuemian.
There was no one where she lived, only various spiritual herbs and beasts. She kept them company. Later, she learned her identity: the first deity in the world, the god of all things who controls the power of life.
She became Him.
Jiang Yuemian lived alone. At first, it was alright, but it became increasingly boring until a long, long time later, a wisp of purple mist appeared in her cave.
Jiang Yuemian then realized that a new god was about to be born.
