Chapter 30: The Girl

Last night, Shu Yan and the Snow Empress chatted implicitly about many somewhat sensitive topics. Neither of them dared to be too direct, but after a deep talk, both of them had a bottom line in their hearts.

Between companions, it is extremely necessary to conduct a discussion on such important decisions when necessary. As for why not call the Ice Empress?

The reason is that there is no need at all. The Ice Empress's wisdom is very high, but as long as the Snow Empress is by her side, this guy will directly transform into a "licking scorpion", her wisdom and judgment will drop straight, and she almost relies on the Snow Empress to make judgments and decisions.

However, Shu Yan could also roughly determine the Ice Empress's thoughts. Proud as the Ice Empress, her final choice would be the same as the two of them, preferring to die standing than to live kneeling...

The chat was good, but Shu Yan didn't grasp the time well, just letting Xu Jiujiu, who had just woken up from the cultivation state, see this scene.

In the moonlight, a handsome man and a beautiful woman didn't know what they were talking about, and from time to time, a burst of crisp laughter came. It looked so... compatible? Xu Jiujiu admitted that she was jealous and envious. I don't know why, but as long as Shu Yan and the Snow Empress stood together, there would be a sense of compatibility like a match made in heaven, and compared to her, she...

Watching Xu Jiujiu jump off the star platform and leave angrily, the Snow Empress raised her eyebrows, lazily and amusingly said: "Your little girlfriend seems unhappy, why, don't go coax her?"

Shu Yan sighed helplessly, then said: "Coaxing is definitely necessary. Let's stop here today, Snow Sister, you go back to rest early too."

The Snow Empress nodded gently, yawned, stood up and stretched, and then disappeared like a breeze.

Shu Yan looked at the vast and boundless sky for a while, then climbed down from the pavilion and walked toward the Princess Mansion. Just as he entered the hall, he saw Xu Jiujiu sitting on the soft couch with her back to him.

Under the warm and dim lights, Xu Jiujiu seemed to have just finished bathing. Her golden long hair was still somewhat damp, and she carried water vapor on her body. She was only wearing a soft golden silk pajama, her fragrant shoulders half-exposed, and her fair, slender legs like ivory were also exposed to the air, emitting a faint fragrance that confused people's minds.

Shu Yan hugged Xu Jiujiu from behind. Xu Jiujiu's soft body stiffened, but soon she came back to her senses, and her body became soft again.

"Why did you come back? Weren't you chatting happily with Snow Empress senior? Can you still remember me, this official girlfriend, like this? Should I feel surprised?"

Jealousy, a very strong jealousy!

Shu Yan gently bit Xu Jiujiu's fair and tender neck, then said helplessly:

"We were chatting about a major event, a major event involving very deep things. Eating such flying vinegar, it seems my Princess Highness is really stingy."

Xu Jiujiu's face became blushing because of Shu Yan's movements, but she still said stubbornly: "Who knows what you were chatting about, what if you are tired of me and are ready to change your taste?"

Shu Yan smiled lightly, reached out and pulled Xu Jiujiu directly into his arms, letting her sit on his lap.

Xu Jiujiu struggled symbolically, then became obedient.

Shu Yan's hand seemed to be equipped with automatic positioning and reached into the golden pajama, touching Xu Jiujiu's fair and smooth thigh. When he wanted to go one step further, Xu Jiujiu pressed his big hand.

"Letting you touch this Princess's legs is already me taking pity on you; don't push your luck." Xu Jiujiu's voice carried a hint of bashfulness and a slight tremor. Shu Yan's caresses made her entire body burn, and in this situation, she craved the cooling sensation of Shu Yan's body even more. Almost subconsciously, she snuggled even closer into Shu Yan's embrace.

Shu Yan helplessly withdrew his hand, but his gaze turned to fixate on Xu Jiujiu's beautiful, impossibly exquisite jade-like feet.

Xu Jiujiu noticed something amiss, glared fiercely at Shu Yan, and then snapped, "You are not allowed to look around anymore! If you look again, I'll shove them directly into your mouth; let's see if you dare to do it again in the future..."

A question mark slowly appeared over Shu Yan's head. For a moment, he actually couldn't tell if Xu Jiujiu was trying to punish him or reward him...

Xu Jiujiu, however, was completely unaware of Shu Yan's internal state. She shifted her position backward and lifted her slender jade legs. A fragrance wafted toward him. Shu Yan's gaze darkened, and he reached out to grasp those small, delicate jade feet.

Xu Jiujiu trembled all over. Looking at the undisguised predatory intent in Shu Yan's eyes, she finally realized just how seductive her actions must have appeared to him...

Swallowing hard, Xu Jiujiu subconsciously wanted to pull her legs back, but she discovered that Shu Yan's grip was shockingly strong. The next moment, Shu Yan said softly:

"Jiujiu, do you really think I'm a man who can sit in a woman's lap without being moved..."

Xu Jiujiu shook her head frantically, then managed a fawning smile and whispered with a pleading tone, "A-Yan, please let me go first, okay? It's so ticklish. I promise, I'll never do this again..."

Shu Yan pressed on, step by step, until he pinned Xu Jiujiu beneath him. Their bodies were pressed tightly together. Shu Yan's large hand moved forward a bit further. Xu Jiujiu trembled, closed her eyes tightly in fear, and hurriedly said:

"Not now, at least... at least wait another two years. A-Yan, I beg you, just touching is fine, okay?"

The young girl's delicate voice, tinged with a hint of sobbing, brought Shu Yan back to his senses. He stroked Xu Jiujiu's soft waist, sighed helplessly, and said, "Alright, stop crying. You make me feel like a beast..."

It took a long time for Xu Jiujiu to slowly open her eyes. Seeing Shu Yan's innocent expression as he rubbed his head, she slowly relaxed. Then, she suddenly burst into a giggle, wiped away the faint tear stains at the corners of her eyes, pinched Shu Yan's cheeks, and said softly, "Why are you so silly? What should I do, A-Yan? I think I like you even more now. I feel like I won't be able to leave you for the rest of my life..."

Shu Yan leaned down and kissed Xu Jiujiu's red lips. Xu Jiujiu took the initiative to lift her head and deepen the kiss. The two lingered for a while before falling asleep in each other's arms...

In a daze, Xu Jiujiu opened her eyes. Shu Yan's image was clearly reflected in her azure eyes. A flash of infatuation crossed her eyes. Subconsciously, she snuggled closer into Shu Yan's embrace, forcefully grabbed one of his arms to use as a pillow, and then drifted into a deep sleep.

After Xu Jiujiu was fast asleep, Shu Yan opened his eyes. Feeling his already numb arm, he helplessly pinched the girl's soft cheek. Truth be told, he had almost no sleepiness at all, and his consciousness was incredibly clear.

After entering the Soul King Realm, sleep was almost no longer a necessity. He only needed to meditate to replace all the functions of sleep. However, Xu Jiujiu could not do that yet. Since she wanted him to stay by her side, he naturally would not refuse. It was just a few nights of meditation time; it would have almost no impact on his overall soul power cultivation. Occasionally relaxing his nerves was still quite necessary...

While lost in thought, Shu Yan began to plan for the near future. Currently, among the opportunities he knew of, many were not difficult to obtain. These opportunities were all treasures of great significance. Before the plot began, he was determined to secure these items one by one. After considering it for a moment, Shu Yan already had corresponding ideas in his mind...
