Protagonist:
Xuan Ge
At noon on the second day, warm sunlight streamed through the bedchamber window, spilling onto the soft bedding and blooming into a gentle halo of light.
Xuan Ge only just slowly woke, heavy eyelids laboriously lifting, gaze scattered as he stared at the carved ceiling, a hoarse low moan escaping his throat:
"Almost completely drained dry....."
Last night Jing Liu and Yao Guang teamed up to entangle him, nearly wringing this peerless Divine Might General until he was bone-dry.
His power had not yet fully recovered to begin with.
Xing Xiao had passed him some power, but it was merely a drop in the bucket.
Were it not for the power of karma protecting him, with his outwardly strong but inwardly frail glass-cannon physique, even with a sturdy foundation and a physique far surpassing ordinary people, he simply could not endure the two of them taking turns tormenting him.
"Mmm~" A soft, glutinous hum came from beside him.
Jing Liu also slowly opened her eyes, crimson pupils still retaining last night's lingering intimate charm; catching sight of Xuan Ge's utterly exhausted look, she couldn't help but let out a light laugh.
Her naked delicate body subconsciously pressed even tighter into Xuan Ge's embrace, warm skin against skin, causing Xuan Ge's body to stiffen slightly.
Under the covers, Jing Liu noticed that Yao Guang's jade legs had at some point come to rest on her own body, and a surge of competitive spirit instantly rose in her heart.
Not to be outdone, she lifted her foot and kicked Yao Guang's leg away, then draped her own long leg over Xuan Ge, happening to press down on his unconscious morning arousal.
"Reverse Disciple~~ Looks like your spirit is still plenty vigorous~"
Jing Liu's lips curled in a teasing smile, her waist gently grinding, instantly dispelling the fatigue surrounding Xuan Ge's whole body, making him unable to lie still any longer, wanting only to immediately get up and flee.
"Master..... Jing Liu, you and Yao Guang rest well first."
Xuan Ge hastily corrected his address, scrambling to his feet in a fluster and striding quickly to the wardrobe to rummage for fresh clothes.
Last night the two of them had carried on too recklessly; the original bedchamber was already a wreck beyond description, so after calming down they switched to this side hall to rest.
Watching Xuan Ge's flustered, clumsy appearance as he dressed quickly, Jing Liu wanted to get up and help.
But her thighs had just exerted the slightest force when a sour, swelling numbness swept through her whole body, her legs trembling uncontrollably.
She could only powerlessly collapse back onto the bed, not even the strength to stir remaining.
After Xuan Ge finished dressing neatly, with a single flash he fled the bedchamber as if escaping.
Jing Liu lay on the bed, fingertips gently caressing her lower abdomen, always feeling a faint, barely perceptible swelling there, yet it vanished in a flash, as if an illusion.
Just as she was preparing to close her eyes for a short rest, the hand resting on her lower abdomen was suddenly lightly pressed down upon by a warm, soft hand.
Yao Guang had woken at some unknown time, brows curved as she teased:
"Jing Liu, worthy of being the Luo Fu Sword Chief, you really learn fast; last night from shy and passive to actively demanding, the transformation was quite decisive."
Jing Liu unwilling to be outdone, reached back and also rested her hand on Yao Guang's lower abdomen, pressing lightly; the force at her fingertips was just right, eliciting a soft, delicate moan from Yao Guang.
"Let's not tease each other; those wicked ideas last night, weren't they all yours?"
Jing Liu's lips curled in a shallow smile, looking at Yao Guang trying to move her hand away, her tone full of mockery.
Yao Guang's eyes rolled, her small hand smoothly reaching downward; just as it touched a sensitive spot, Jing Liu's body instantly tensed, and she hurriedly called out to stop her:
"Don't move around, it still hurts~"
"Hurts? Last night I saw you unleashing the Sword Chief's force to the fullest, determined to cut Xuan Ge down from his horse."
Yao Guang laughed increasingly cunningly, deliberately teasing the person before her.
"Hmph~" Jing Liu gave a coquettish huff, too lazy to bicker with Yao Guang further, closing her eyes to rest and nurture her spirit.
Letting the person beside her fuss, the aura around her whole body gradually calmed down.
On the other side, in the main hall of the Divine Martial General's Mansion, Xuan Ge sat upright on the principal seat, looking at the documents piled like a mountain on the desk, and couldn't help but rub his swollen brow.
He had been away for many days; myriad government affairs required this Divine Might General to personally decide, and could not be shirked at all.
"Scum~~" A coquettish complaint rang out, Xing Xiao and Ling Sha walked out slowly from the side hall.
Xing Xiao held a bowl of steaming nourishing soup in both hands, carefully placing it on the desk before Xuan Ge, her eyes carrying a few parts reproach and ill intent.
Xuan Ge looked at the bowl packed full of precious tonics, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Constrained by the fact this was personally cooked by Xing Xiao, he still steeled himself, scooped up a spoonful to taste, and lightly nodded to indicate 'approval'.
Seeing this, Xing Xiao's brows instantly curved into crescents, and together with Ling Sha she sat sideways in the Chief Strategist's seat, quietly keeping watch to the side, not daring to disturb too much.
The documents on the desk were already piled nearly a meter high, all waiting for Xuan Ge to personally review.
"Children be good, don't make noise, don't disturb the General handling government affairs."
Luo Rui Ya's gentle voice came from outside the hall; she lightly rubbed Robin and Sunday's heads, soothing the two children before slowly stepping into the main hall.
Luo Rui Ya wore a set of Xian Zhou standard pure white light skirt, the hem fluttering slightly in the wind, all the more highlighting the unique gentle temperament of the Vidyadhara clan.
She raised her eyes to look at Xuan Ge, a shallow smile in her brows and eyes.
Robin, seeing Xuan Ge, immediately toddled over on short legs at a quick pace.
But Sunday stepped forward and attempted to bow with clasped fists, tone respectful and calm: "Uncle."
Xuan Ge's motion of drinking soup suddenly paused, his body involuntarily giving a slight tremble.
Beside him, Ling Sha and Xing Xiao's auras instantly turned cold, two hostile gazes landing straight on him, pressure overwhelming.
Ling Sha was actually fine; mainly Xing Xiao — she let Ling Sha ride on her head, and now another younger sister pops out.
And Robin, preempted by her brother's "Uncle," halted her steps; she hadn't spoken yet.
She looked back at the calm-faced Sunday; why does big brother always compete with her for Uncle.
"Big brother~ bad!"
She quickly climbed the steps, nimbly burrowing into Xuan Ge's embrace, sitting on his thigh.
Then seeing the food, her bright, glistening eyes stared at the tonic soup before her, obviously also wanting a taste.
"Older Brother~" Luo Rui Ya called softly, her brows and eyes full of gentleness.
Xuan Ge ladled a little of the warm tonic soup and brought it to Robin's mouth.
The little one took a sip, and her small face instantly scrunched up into a ball, her whole face full of suffering as she disdained the soup's bitterness.
Xuan Ge watched her appearance and couldn't help but chuckle, only then turning his head to look at Luo Rui Ya, asking gently:
"Have you been resting well in the manor?"
"Thank you for your concern, Older Brother, I've rested very well."
Luo Rui Ya smiled lightly and sweetly; seeing Xuan Ge gesture for her to sit, she pulled Sunday along and walked to a seat to the side, sitting down quietly.
Just then, Kakavasha led her sister Yi Sha by the hand into the Zheng Dian.
The Shen Wu guards at the Men closed the Shen Men; when they looked at Xuan Ge on the Zhu Wei, their eyes were full of admiration.
Worthy of the General Shen Wei, to actually be able to suppress so many people at once — this bearing is unmatched by anyone.
Kakavasha glanced at Sunday not far away looking over at her, chin raised slightly, and called out directly:
"Brother-in-law."
Yi Sha beside her also hurriedly bowed properly: "General, my lord."
"Sit... sit down and speak..."
Xuan Ge instantly broke into a profuse sweat; the moment this "Brother-in-law" left her mouth, the surface of the tonic soup before him began to form fine ice slag.
Obviously the Cold aura around Xing Xiao and Ling Sha grew even denser, their auras completely changed.
"Uncle~ suddenly so cold~"
Robin shrank into Xuan Ge Huai Li, her small hand even unconsciously tugging open Xuan Ge's collar, wanting to burrow into his clothes for warmth.
Xuan Ge hurriedly stopped her small movement, his Fingertip gently rubbing the small Wings on the back of her Neck, soothing softly:
"It's alright, with me here, it's not cold anymore."
He secretly circulated power, suppressing the Cold aura around him; Xing Xiao saw this and couldn't help a cold snort:
"Hmph~ Scum~!"
Ling Sha also Slowly reined in the hostility around her, exchanging a glance with Xing Xiao, their gazes both falling on Robin and Sunday, a trace of amusement flashing in their eyes.
This pair of siblings, their minds don't seem to be in the same place at all; this silent contest is actually quite interesting.
