Helan Zhao said nothing. He simply wrapped an arm around Yuan Shu’s waist and lifted her slightly, making it easier for her to cling to him.
He lowered his head gently, allowing her to indulge in the kiss more comfortably.
Their robes had already fallen to the ground. Yuan Shu followed the elegant line of his jaw, kissing her way downward.
Feeling the strange sensation against his chest, Helan Zhao’s body trembled lightly, and an involuntary muffled groan escaped his throat.
He knew this was Yuan Shu’s reward for being satisfied with his service.
His cheeks flushed faintly as he tightened his arms around her waist, his heart filled with delight.
He had known it! Yuan Shu would certainly love the Heavenly Dragon Imperial Family’s special ability.
That was why he gave his all every time, wanting to make himself unforgettable to Yuan Shu.
And now, it seemed he had succeeded!
No matter what Helan Ying did to her, Yuan Shu would never be able to forget him!
Much less be as intimate with Helan Ying as she was now, taking the initiative to pleasure him.
Helan Ying definitely couldn’t do that!
Helan Zhao was overwhelmed with excitement, unaware that Yuan Shu was even more excited than he was.
What did it mean to be a heaven-chosen member of the Hehuan Sect?
Helan Zhao was certainly one of them.
After living for several centuries, this was the first time Yuan Shu had experienced such a sensation.
She had never taken the initiative to pleasure anyone before. Helan Zhao was the first.
Of course, she could not do what he had done.
The most she could manage was his chest and abdominal muscles—or his lips.
Even so, the advanced techniques of seduction from the Hehuan Sect were enough to make him feel utterly delighted.
“Helan Zhao, I’m honestly feeling an irresistible urge to go to the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty!”
Yuan Shu bit his lip, then nestled against his chest and reached out to trace his features carefully.
It was a face similar to Helan Ying’s, yet the experience it offered was entirely different.
She liked it very much.
Return to the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty?
Helan Zhao’s heart surged with emotion. Sure enough, Shushu missed him too and could not wait to learn the method of circulating dragon qi!
“Once this matter is over, Shushu, I’ll definitely take you home!”
Yuan Shu smiled. “All right!”
……
By the time Yuan Shu and Helan Zhao returned, Helan Ying’s expression had already returned to normal.
His indifferent gaze swept over Helan Zhao. When he looked at Yuan Shu again, it became gentle and affectionate once more.
He pointed toward the bonfire in the center of the cave. “Sister, the roasted meat is ready. Have a taste?”
He knew that although Yuan Shu could already survive without food, she still enjoyed eating.
While the two of them had been away, he had racked his brains and come up with this honey-roasted chicken. He had tasted it himself, and it was quite good.
Having received Yuan Shu’s approval, Helan Zhao was glowing with pride. He ignored Helan Ying’s deliberate disregard and snorted before pulling Yuan Shu down beside him.
He picked up the roasted chicken before them, carefully tore off the plumpest leg, and brought it to Yuan Shu’s lips.
“It’s still a little hot. Be careful.”
Yuan Shu opened her mouth and accepted it, narrowing her eyes in satisfaction. “There’s a sweet floral fragrance from the honey. The way this chicken was roasted is rather unique!”
“Right? I knew you would like it, Sister!”
Helan Ying smiled and moved to sit on Yuan Shu’s other side. While Helan Zhao was feeding her, he slipped an arm around Yuan Shu’s waist.
“If Sister likes it, I’ll roast some more tomorrow!”
Helan Zhao gave him a soft snort at the small gesture, but said nothing.
Yuan Shu, however, raised her brows slightly and casually asked, “Are we going to stay here?”
Helan Ying’s expression froze for a moment before he explained, “Sister, there are too many people hunting me down. It wouldn’t be wise to leave right now.”
“Oh?” Yuan Shu raised a brow, the corners of her lips curving into a meaningful smile.
Helan Ying’s heart jolted. For some inexplicable reason, he felt as though his thoughts had been stripped bare and seen through, leaving him awkward and exposed. He hurriedly replied with a smile.
“Yes…”
……
“Shushu, this place is probably…”
“The best entrance to the hidden alternate dimension of the Falling Immortal Sect!”
The Hehuan Divine Tree’s voice rang out in Yuan Shu’s mind. Before it could finish, Yuan Shu took over.
“The Earth Demon Fiend clan wants to open that alternate dimension. The demon race wants a share of the spoils, and there are even other forces lurking in the shadows, all watching covetously.”
“This place should already be close to the Death Demon Forest. Although it still lies within the territory of the Falling Immortal Sect, a single pair of fists can’t overcome four hands. Gaps are bound to appear eventually.”
“That gives Helan Ying an opportunity!”
The Hehuan Divine Tree listened quietly, nodding repeatedly.
Yuan Shu truly was worthy of being the talent with whom it was most compatible. Even their thoughts were remarkably synchronized.
How could Helan Ying have chosen a random place to settle down?
Unless this place was extraordinary to begin with!
Moreover, judging from the various formations he had used to conceal the cave, it was obvious that he had prepared for this long ago.
He had probably been planning this for quite some time.
It was just that Yuan Shu and Helan Zhao had now become part of the plan.
“Shushu, you need to be careful around Helan Ying. Don’t let yourself be careless just because of that face of his… Ahem.”
The Hehuan Divine Tree knew that Yuan Shu was a beauty enthusiast and had an indescribable indulgence toward handsome men.
Of course, under ordinary circumstances, Yuan Shu was still very rational. It firmly believed that!
Yuan Shu let out a soft laugh. “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. A Void Refining–realm cultivation cauldron has delivered itself to my door—why should I refuse? Although he’s an Earth Demon Fiend, he’s still Helan Ying.”
The corners of Yuan Shu’s lips lifted, confidence shining in her eyes. “With the Baize Spirit on me, I’d like to see what tricks he can pull!”
……
Helan Ying brought Helan Zhao along to reinforce the formations and restrictions at the cave entrance, adding numerous defensive and concealment measures.
With the forbidden formations of the Earth Demon Fiend clan combined with the vast collection of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty, the two ordinary-looking caves were concealed so perfectly that not even a drop of water could seep through.
A demonic hound passed by the entrance, its nose twitching for quite some time, yet it discovered nothing.
Lu Huai of the Earth Demon Fiend clan also brought people to search several times, but they were all turned away by the illusion formation at the entrance.
To them, the caves before their eyes were merely a solid cliff with no path through it. Occasionally, venomous snakes and insects would emerge, threatening their lives.
Under ordinary circumstances, they naturally did not dare approach recklessly.
Every faction had experts skilled in divination and deduction. Unlike Helan Ying, they could not determine the exact location of the alternate dimension.
However, their divinations could still reveal its general vicinity.
After failing to locate Helan Ying, these people gradually began stationing themselves around the mountain range.
Yuan Shu had already watched hundreds of people pass by the cave, some familiar faces from the Falling Immortal Sect, some demons sneaking about, and even members of the Earth Demon Fiend clan disguised as people from the Falling Immortal Sect.
More and more people gathered in the rear mountains, and the area grew increasingly lively.
This also indicated that the alternate dimension would soon show signs of activity!
At that moment, Yuan Shu was being pinned between the bed curtains by an aroused Helan Ying, who was loving her with abandon!
Time was of the essence. Since Helan Ying could not directly extract the Baize Spirit from Yuan Shu, he could only absorb its energy in this manner.
With every trace of energy he absorbed, his strength increased by another fraction.
This was the power granted to him by the Baize Spirit through their life-bound contract!
If Helan Zhao had not been at his side causing trouble, he truly could have maintained this position until the alternate dimension began to stir.
“Helan Ying, that’s enough. Don’t push it!”
