His sharply defined face was filled with endless coldness and desire, and his deep eyes were like a whirlpool, as if trying to suck her in. He suddenly lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Jiu'er seems very surprised to see me?"
His voice was seductive, and his hot breath tickled her neck, making her afraid to move.
Ji Jiuying was pinned against the wall by him, the two of them very close. In the dim moonlight, she saw her reflection in his deep eyes, and his chiseled features softened.
"No...didn't you promise me you wouldn't come looking for me at night? Why are you... um..."
Seemingly annoyed by her noise, he silenced her with his mouth. Ji Jiuying instinctively leaned back, but her waist was restrained by his strong hands, and his other hand dug into her hair, fixing the back of her head in place.
He relentlessly demanded her scent, his domineering and forceful kiss leaving Ji Jiuying momentarily breathless. His fingers rubbed her back, sending shivers through her body, which went limp as if she had fallen into a soft cloud.
"Um······"
Ji Jiuying was completely captivated and couldn't help but let out an ambiguous sound. Gong Mingyue's eyes darkened again, and his hands began to wander. When a cool sensation spread across his shoulder, his hand, which had been on her waist, moved to her front.
Ji Jiuying woke up instantly and reached out to push Gong Mingyue, but the man in front of her did not move.
"Ah Yue... no... don't do this."
He didn't speak, but simply pinned her hands above her head and kissed her from her chin down to her neck, collarbone... all the way down.
"Ah Yue!"
Ji Jiuying's heart tightened, and her tone became more serious. The man in front of her stiffened for a moment, frowned, and stopped, kissing her earlobe instead: "Jiu'er doesn't like it?"
Ji Jiuying nodded. Gong Mingyue looked into those clear and sincere eyes, which struck his heart. The redness in his eyes disappeared, and for some reason, he couldn't bear to refuse her.
"good······"
Gong Mingyue's slightly hoarse voice came through. He pulled her clothes up a bit with his large hand, then tied the ribbon, picked her up and placed her on the bed. He then lay down himself, all his movements so natural and flawless.
Although it wasn't the first time they had slept together, Ji Jiuying was still a little flustered. Just then, Gong Mingyue grabbed her hand.
"Jiu'er, go to sleep."
Gong Mingyue's body was pressed against hers, and his low voice came from behind her. Ji Jiuying dared not move an inch.
A moment later, she heard even breathing. Ji Jiuying's eyes flickered slightly, and she softly called out, "A-Yue?"
"Ah Yue? Are you asleep?"
The person behind her still didn't respond. Ji Jiuying carefully turned around and looked at the peerless face so close to her in the moonlight. Her fingers unconsciously reached up and gently traced his outline.
This man is so handsome even when he's sleeping.
Just then, Ji Jiuying's hand touched his wrist, she stiffened slightly, grabbed his hand and reached out, her brows furrowing slightly. Why was his aura so chaotic? At the same time, she released her spiritual power, quietly probing him.
Only then did I notice that his face was a little pale. Could it be because of the backlash from the Golden Lotus Heart on Yuezhu's body?
Thinking of this, Ji Jiuying's consciousness kept checking the Heavenly Punishment Manual. The Golden Lotus Heart was a sacred object of Buddhism. Devouring a sacred object of Buddhism would inevitably result in a backlash from it, which would take anywhere from three to a hundred years, and could only be digested by the body itself.
Seeing this, a pang of heartache flashed across Ji Jiuying's eyes. To protect her from harm, he had actually used such a method to end the Moon Candle.
As Ji Jiuying looked up, she met a pair of dark eyes, and a large hand pulled her up.
"Ah Yue, did I disturb you?"
"no······"
A low voice came from behind. Ji Jiuying looked at his somewhat pale face, buried her head in his chest, and hugged his waist with her small hands.
"Ah Yue, thank you."
The two were pressed tightly together, face to face. He could even clearly feel the softness in front of her and his nostrils were filled with her scent. A crimson glint flashed in Gong Mingyue's eyes. Thinking of her gaze just now, he clenched his fists, suppressing the impulse in his heart.
When he heard even breathing beneath her, Gong Mingyue gently tapped her brow with his finger, then quickly got up and disappeared from the room.
Immortal Bamboo Peak is not far away.
Xiao Yichen opened his eyes with a whoosh, and his figure also disappeared from the room. Standing on the pavilion, he looked in the direction of Immortal Forest Peak with a puzzled look, where the aura of mutual repulsion between powerful people was present.
This was the second time he had sensed the aura of a powerful figure on Immortal Forest Peak. Although it only disappeared for a moment, he still managed to detect it.
Who exactly is this person who can enter Blue Star so quietly? Is their repeated appearances at Immortal Forest Peak a friend or foe? It seems I'll have to go to Immortal Forest Peak first thing tomorrow morning to sound out that girl.
When Ji Jiuying woke up, she found that there was no one beside her. She quickly got up and called out, "A-Yue?"
Raising his hand to sense the threads of affection with his soul power, he discovered that he had already returned to the Nine Heavens Divine Palace. His eyes couldn't help but dim, and he was also a little worried.
When Ji Jiuying opened the door, a figure in dark blue appeared in her courtyard. Xiao Yichen was sitting leisurely at the stone table, drinking tea, with some steaming porridge beside him.
"Dean, what brings you here so early in the morning?"
Ji Jiuying narrowed her eyes slightly, her mind racing, and walked forward, feigning confusion as she asked.
Xiao Yichen pushed the bowl of congee on the table forward and said with a smile, "Girl, sit down and have some breakfast to fill your stomach first."
Ji Jiuying sat down without any hesitation, and asked while eating, "Speak, what do you want to see me about?"
"Little girl, are you getting used to living on Immortal Forest Peak?"
"It's a habit!"
"Have you noticed anything unusual about Xianlin Peak lately? Don't overthink it, I'm just worried about your safety."
Ji Jiuying's lowered eyes flickered, but her face remained calm, revealing nothing unusual.
No, you're probably overthinking it.
Xiao Yichen looked at Ji Jiuying with his charming eyes, playing with the tea set in his hand, leaning back lazily in the chair, flamboyant and unrestrained.
Am I overthinking it?
Xiao Yichen's tone was like talking to himself, yet it carried a hint of scrutiny. Ji Jiuying continued to leisurely drink her porridge, but in reality, her heart was already churning with turmoil.
Judging from Xiao Yichen's appearance, he must have sensed A Yue's presence.
At this moment, a crimson color appeared on Ji Jiuying's shoulder, and at the same time, a powerful divine beast aura came towards them. Xiao Yichen stared at Xiao Huang'er, his body stiffening.
"Dean, you're overthinking it."
Xiao Yichen narrowed his eyes, then smiled and said, "I didn't expect it was you, little rascal, who was behind this."
