Chapter 225
Yan Shuo remained silent for a moment, staring intently at Xie Xubai.
The young commander curled his fingers, a sudden sense of unease rising in his heart, wondering if he had failed to appease her.
Although he has reincarnated many times, he has spent almost all his time on official business such as studying, training, meetings, and commanding battles. Even so, he always feels that there is not enough time and wishes he could divide a minute in half.
Therefore, Xie Xubai's only romantic experience to date is with the Evil God, and even then, it was openly admired. The number of times he took the initiative can be counted on one hand.
Before, I resisted and avoided it; now, I'm just groping around, not knowing how to talk to them because of their species. I just kissed them on impulse, never thinking about what to do if things didn't end well.
If Yan Shuo had remained silent for even a little longer, Xie Xubai would have been overwhelmed by embarrassment.
Faced with this awkward situation, should I cover my mouth and run away? That would be too embarrassing.
Should we try another kiss? What if Yan Shuo still doesn't react? Wouldn't that be even more awkward?
No matter how much Xie Xubai racked his brains, his face remained impassive. He casually raised his eyes, his legs already showing a tendency to retreat: "If you don't speak, I'll take that as your agreement. I—"
Yan Shuo suddenly hooked his arm around his waist and pulled him forcefully into his arms.
Xie Xubai was caught off guard and bumped into Yan Shuo's solid chest. The strong male hormones rushed towards him, and his heart pounded. His mind was like a thunderclap.
Yan Shuo ran one hand through Xie Xubai's soft hair, forcefully pulled his face down, and kissed his soft lips, swallowing all the words Xie Xubai wanted to say.
Evil gods are theoretically incapable of falling in love with other life forms and emotionally regard all species as air, but Xie Xubai is an exception.
From the moment they first met until countless cycles of reincarnation, Xie Xubai was the only exception.
Their hot breaths mingled, their noses brushing against each other.
All those suppressed dark emotions erupted, transforming into a strange desire for conquest that surged toward Xie Xubai.
The moist, sticky aroma seemed to penetrate every corner of his mouth like a tentacle, leaving Xie Xubai unable to close his mouth completely, and his eyes soon turned completely red.
He thought this was too intense; who could unleash such energy to drain someone dry just from a kiss?
Her taut fingers pushed hard against Yan Shuo's chest, trying to get him to stop and catch his breath; she really couldn't take it anymore.
Unexpectedly, several tentacles suddenly wrapped around his thighs and lifted them up, then twisted them to the sides. Xie Xubai, who lost his balance, was like a cat being held by the scruff of its neck, and subconsciously leaned all his weight on the only support—Yan Shuo.
Yan Shuo lowered his hands, his muscular arms supporting his hips and legs, kissing him more and more intensely.
Xie Xubai wanted to retreat but had nowhere to go. His mind went blank from the unrestrained demands. He let out rapid and secretive gasps, his eyelashes trembled like raven feathers, and his eyes trembled and became wet.
Please, no, don't kiss so roughly...
I haven't become a god yet, I can't bear your power, I really can't.
[Let me go, Mr. Yan, Yan Shuo, Yan—]
In an instant, a surge of pleasure shot into his brain like an electric current, and Xie Xubai's five fingers suddenly tensed and trembled, his very mind shaking.
He was filled with doubt that he was going to be devoured alive by Yan Shuo. He repeatedly tried to endure and restrain himself, but finally he couldn't hold back his tears and let out a choked sob.
His hands groped haphazardly on Yan Shuo's back and the back of his head, like a small boat tossed about in a storm, desperately trying to grab onto something to build a precarious sense of security.
Just then, she suddenly touched Yan Shuo's burning hot earlobe.
Xie Xubai, who was so dizzy and disoriented from being kissed, actually had the leisure to wonder what kind of phenomenon this was. Unfortunately, before he could take a closer look, he was overwhelmed by the ensuing storm of kisses.
When Yan Shuo reluctantly agreed, Xie Xubai felt like he was half dead, clinging to the man like a salted fish, panting heavily from exhaustion.
He was still thinking about that burning heat, and through his teary eyes he looked over and was surprised to see that the back of the man's ear had turned red.
Is this... because you're shy?
With a blank expression and a fierce look that seemed ready to devour him, she wouldn't let go no matter how much he begged for mercy, yet she herself was secretly embarrassed here?
Xie Xubai was so angry he almost laughed.
After getting angry, he fell silent again.
That was truly unexpected.
He thought that even if Yan Shuo had feelings for him, it wouldn't be to the point where he couldn't live without someone.
After all, a hundred years of human life is like a cicada compared to the sun and moon in the long lifespan of an evil god—there is no comparison whatsoever.
If It weren't for Theseus's meddling, there would have been a good chance that Yan Shuo would have told him that He destroyed half of the divine core in order to snatch it back from the system.
And how likely is there that He would tell him that in order to piece together His shattered soul, He would set aside His divine pride and endure the excruciating pain of being consumed by fire to pray to the gods of the four directions for help?
Xie Xubai said softly, "...Fool."
He looked up, leaned closer, closed his eyes, and gently kissed Yan Shuo's reddened ear.
Yan Shuo, who was pacifying Xie Xubai, suddenly froze. After a long while, his eyes flickered, and his fighting spirit was rekindled: "Didn't you say you couldn't take it anymore? You still want more?"
Xie Xubai: "..."
Suddenly, a fierce wind arose in the chessboard world, and the previously dormant power of the rules returned, causing the departed souls to growl uneasily.
It's the system!
Xie Xubai and Yan Shuo exchanged a glance, and the former was the first to withdraw from the sea of consciousness.
The flow of consciousness differs from that of reality; less than half a second passes outside.
This means that not long after Yan Shuo appeared, the system hurriedly caught up with him—Yan Shuo's attempt to seize the Black King's identity made it feel threatened!
However, the infinite game limits players, NPCs, and bosses, and also limits the system itself.
It cannot violate the fairness of the game; it can only exert pressure through the rules to make Yan Shuo fulfill the responsibilities of the Black King and return to the top of the tower to take control of the overall situation.
Yan Shuo sneered, standing high in the sky. He didn't speak, but his unquestionable voice, carrying an oppressive force, resounded throughout the entire game kingdom!
"Soon the kingdom will welcome another master, and I hereby call upon all citizens and foreign guests to celebrate this grand and important festival."
"From now on, all participants can directly challenge the boss guarding each level without paying game points."
The deadline is ten days. Whoever successfully reaches the highest level within ten days will win the competition, and the other kingdom lord and I will bestow upon the victor unparalleled glory and rewards.”
From the moment Yan Shuo uttered the words "another master of the kingdom," the entire kingdom was thrown into turmoil.
The executive's wine glass crashed onto the table, spilling down and soaking the carpet. He turned pale and impatiently dispatched his men to gather intelligence.
The lower and middle-level staff suspended their work, and various speculations emerged. Online discussions about the matter surged, with hundreds of thousands of comments and reposts flooding the country's major news forums in the blink of an eye!
People's hearts are different, and undercurrents are surging.
Amidst this chaotic jumble of ideas, only one question remained consistent, leaving all citizens scratching their heads, eager for an answer.
Who is it?
Who is this mysterious being who has never revealed a word about himself, yet has made the tyrannical, domineering, and autocratic Black King willingly relinquish half of his power?
Upon hearing that the game rules had been drastically changed, allowing players to challenge the tower without playing games and accumulating points, the players couldn't contain their excitement. Any sudden event in the trial dungeon that disrupted the rules contained crucial information for clearing the dungeon!
Some people mustered up the courage to look up.
This sight was quite something; the team chat immediately erupted with shouts, and everyone was online cosplaying as a screaming chicken.
Is the Black King holding someone in his arms? To me, that person looks like Xie Shen.
It's not just a resemblance; I just used my clairvoyance skill to check, and that is Xie Xubai!
Wait, I suddenly realized, could the other master that Black King mentioned be Xie Xubai? That's why he changed the rules to benefit the players.
:?
: ? ?
: ? ? ? ? ? ?
Has anyone counted how many relationships God has? It must stretch from the central hall to the ends of the street!
Now all you challengers have a lot more to consider, and all I can do is praise Xie Men!
May the Xie family live on forever!
Don't get too excited yet. If the game really became that easy, why did the senior players not look relaxed at all?
It was like a bucket of cold water being poured over one's head.
The others immediately calmed down and turned around to see that the big shots led by Yan Chuyi indeed had cold expressions.
As far as their eyes could see, a chilling mist of blood was seeping out from the ground and converging on the entrance to the tower.
An ominous premonition arose in my heart.
Rules are balanced; if Yan Shuo sets rules that benefit players, the system must compensate for it in another way.
A cold, impersonal notification sound rang out.
[Ding! The following is a notification of a major event that concerns the life and death of Yu-Gi-Oh! Kingdom.]
With the boss guarding the first level of the Black Tower killed, no one is left to guard that level, and the source of pollution that was originally suppressed beneath the kingdom is about to erupt.
Players, please stop the spread of pollution as soon as possible, or the entire game kingdom will cease to exist!
