"Uh?" Qingyi’s eyes widened in surprise. He hadn’t really expected Elize to take the initiative to kiss him.
But well... who was he to deny her?
He grabbed her ass tightly, his hands massaging the soft skin while his lips lingered on the sweetness of hers.
After long, passionate moments, their mouths parted.
"You don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to..." Qingyi spoke, his fingers finding her face and tucking a lock of hair, placing it gently behind her ear.
"It’s okay..." Elize smiled bitterly.
Feeling a cold breeze brush across her shoulders, she shrank back, hiding her neck beneath the water and pressing her face against Qingyi’s chest.
His heartbeat was racing, as was hers, rhythmic and strangely relaxing.
"I was barely six at the time... so I don’t remember much..." She spoke, her legs wrapping around Qingyi’s waist.
"I remember fortresses of black stone, so tall they pierced the heavens, armies made up of men of steel and beasts that spat fire."
She tightened her embrace, her body trembling slightly.
"They used to say that I was the least talented child in the whole history of our family, a disgrace to its name." Her grip on Qingyi strengthened, her eyes growing moist.
"One night, my mother woke me up, along with some knights. We ran through the palace until we came to a strange place.
I don’t even remember her last words. Just the battle, the blood, and then... I woke up here..." A single tear ran down Elize’s beautiful purple eyes.
"I..." Qingyi hesitated, searching for words.
His heart was heavy, his hands wiping away the tears that ran down her delicate cheeks.
He didn’t like seeing his women suffer, he didn’t want to see them like this.
"I’m sorry..." He finally spoke.
Elize didn’t answer, she just pressed her face against Qingyi’s hand, her eyes closing as she rubbed against the warm palm, like a needy kitten.
"When I woke up, I was in this place... Master and Sister Yueli took me in, and together, we looked after the other girls, until..." Elize’s words died away, choking on her own tears.
"It’s okay, you don’t have to say any more..." Qingyi hugged her tightly.
Elize just sniffled. She barely remembered her mother’s smile, but she still missed her, her arms, the protection she felt.
It was similar to what she felt when Qingyi’s hands wrapped around her waist and pulled her against his body.
But it was different... Hard to explain.
"Husband... what’s your dream?" she asked, her voice sweet and slurred.
"Hm... I want to sit on top of the world."
"You mean... reach the realm of transcendence?" Elize’s eyes widened.
She knew well how high that was, beings who could live for thousands of years and open mountains to their heart’s content.
There were many books about the founder of the temple, she was a considerably weak transcendent, but still capable of making the world tremble.
"No," Qingyi shook his head. "Above the realm of transcendence, and then, above what is above the realm of transcendence."
"You mean...-"
"Yes." Qingyi interrupted her.
His goal was the celestial heaven, the highest of the three heavens.
He knew well that the path was dangerous, but only by sitting at the top of everything could he guarantee the happiness of his women.
Only with absolute power could he guarantee that no one would dare hurt them.
"And you?" He lowered his head, his eyes focused on hers. "What’s your dream?"
"I... I want to go back to my family, save my mother and then..." She hesitated for a brief moment before continuing shyly. "To be with husband for the rest of my life."
"That’s a good plan..." A playful smile took over Qingyi’s face.
"I promise I’ll help you with it. When you’re ready, we’ll go after your mom together, okay?"
"Really?" Elize’s eyes sparkled, her voice coming a little more alive.
"And why wouldn’t I? I would never make a promise to my wives that I’m not willing to keep."
"Hm..." Elize seemed to smile for a brief moment, but stopped, opening her mouth and digging her teeth into Qingyi’s skin.
"Ugh..." Qingyi grunted painfully. It hadn’t really hurt, but he still forced himself to make a betrayed expression.
"Why did you do that?" He asked, his eyes trembling.
"To remind you of what will happen if you’re one of those lying men who deceive beautiful ladies!" Elize stood up, her voluptuous body shivering with the cold as she went to get her clothes.
"Ah... I thought you didn’t have much contact with men here."
"We don’t, but we still have a lot of books, fufufu~~" Elize’s sweet, sensual laughter spread through the hot springs, drawing a smile from Qingyi.
"Ah!" She let out a high-pitched squeal as he grabbed her tightly, giving her plump, juicy ass a firm slap.
The pale skin rippled with the impact, the reddish mark of Qingyi’s hands burning subtly.
"Naughty girl... Did your husband give you permission to cover up such perfection?" He smiled, grabbing her huge breasts with both hands before squeezing them, taking both pink nipples into his mouth.
"Q-Qingyi... we’d better go... mmmh~~ soon, the girls must be worried..." She shuddered, but couldn’t stop herself from grabbing his head and pulling him even harder against her breasts.
"Hnnngh~!" Elize moaned, unable to contain the sounds escaping her lips.
Qingyi’s tongue curled around the pink nipples, sucking lightly until he felt a sweet, creamy liquid invade his mouth, the rich Qi dissolving in his throat.
Elize was truly delicious.
[Elize’s corruption has increased tremendously! +100 lust points]
[Elize’s corruption has reached 100/100, new corruption level unlocked, +100 lust points]
Several notifications reached Qingyi, but he ignored them, focusing only on Elize’s tits.
The puffy nipples briefly escaped his lips so that he could kiss her, the milk slowly leaking out and dripping down the full, soft mountains, leaving glistening trails on the snow-white skin.
