Chapter 206
Looking at his aloof face and hearing him say words that were completely at odds with his appearance, Nalan Jingwen would have thought he was mocking her if she knew he wasn't lying.
She took a deep breath, staring intently at him, and said, "Xue Qingheng, I don't know if the marriage agreement you mentioned is true, but if you insist on it, I will not take responsibility for you."
Xue Qingheng's hand on her shoulder trembled slightly, and a slight ripple seemed to appear in his indifferent eyes, but he quickly lowered his eyes to cover the emotions that were gradually emerging in them, and nodded gently.
"Everything is as you wish."
"Once you return, I will not bother you."
His voice was flat, without any inflection, and Nalan Jingwen couldn't discern anything from his face. Since they had agreed, he didn't say anything more.
"Release my pressure points."
Xue Qingheng didn't move, and gently shook her head again.
Upon hearing this, Nalan Jing continued, "I will not run away. If you close the door, I will not be able to open it."
"Since you can't do it, only I, the King, can."
Xue Qingheng then looked up at her, and after a while, reached out and released her pressure points.
With the restraints on his body gone, Nalan Jingwen immediately pushed the person in front of him down. Xue Qingheng did not resist and obediently lay down, but a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Nalan Jingwen paused, unable to bring herself to strike those eyes.
After thinking for a moment, she picked up his sash and tossed it to him.
"I don't want to look into your eyes."
Xue Qingheng remained obedient, covering her eyes with her sash. Since she couldn't see, her senses were amplified, and she passively followed Nalan Jing's scent.
He said in a restrained voice, "Please, sir, practice your internal energy with me."
Nalan Jingwen didn't speak, silently channeling her profound energy; she just wanted to get this over with as quickly as possible.
The moment she entered the state, she felt her profound energy flow from her dantian to her limbs and bones, while another powerful force entered her body and merged with it. Although they were two powerful forces, she did not feel any discomfort. At the moment of merging, her profound energy burst out with dazzling golden light, gradually enveloping the other force.
She could sense that the power of fusion was breaking through the original constraints, impacting her meridians again and again, without causing much discomfort; it was still bearable for her.
His hair, which was flying without wind, turned golden inch by inch once again, and his eyes became crimson.
Xue Qingheng made no sound, only breathing slightly, her forehead covered with fine sweat, her pale lips tightly pressed together, turning crimson, her cool face tinged with desire, large patches of red covering her white clothes, as if smeared with rouge, exuding an alluring aura. Perhaps unable to bear it any longer, her consciousness was invaded, and she subconsciously sought something to lean on, her well-defined knuckles grasping Nalan Jingwen's hand.
Nalan Jingwen opened his eyes slightly and glanced at him, but did not shake off his hand. He then closed his eyes again, focusing on breaking through that barrier.
In another courtyard, a person who had been resting with their eyes closed slowly opened their eyes, looked out the window, a look of understanding flashed in their eyes, and then closed their eyes again.
After an unknown amount of time, the power within his body gradually subsided, his body became extremely light, and the shackles loosened slightly, even making his profound energy a few degrees stronger.
She opened her eyes, her body had returned to normal, and her eyes held a complex expression.
She got up, and didn't look like she had just finished a passionate encounter. On the contrary, the person on the bed had her hands hanging limply by the bedside, the redness on her body had not yet faded, and her silver hair fell on her body, like red plum blossoms covered in snow, like a painting.
She dressed herself, and the person on the bed seemed to have recovered. She sat up, and the sash over her eyes fell down with her movement. Her originally indifferent eyes were now wet as if they were immersed in water, with the corners of her eyes red, making people's hearts skip a beat for no reason.
Xue Qingheng watched her get dressed and slowly spoke, though his voice was a little hoarse.
"Do you remember anything?"
Nalan Jingwen paused in his dressing, then said calmly, "No."
Xue Qingheng fell silent, lowered her eyes, and concealed the emotions within them.
He got up from the bed, staggering and almost falling. Nalan Jing saw this and, after thinking for a moment, helped him up.
It was just a love affair, is it really necessary for him to be unable to even stand up now?
She sensed the profound energy within her body and seemed to realize something, but the words she was about to say took a different turn.
"Stop struggling and get some rest."
Xue Qingheng gently shook her head and pulled her arm out of her hand. "It's alright."
Nalan Jingwen watched his slow movements with her arms crossed, her brows furrowing slightly.
"Why not use a castration technique?"
Xue Qingheng's eyelashes trembled slightly as she looked up at her and said calmly, "You have already expended too much Xuan power today."
Nalan Jingwen was puzzled, but remained silent.
After composing herself, she turned and left without paying him any more attention. Just as she reached the door, he called her back again.
Nalan Jingwen asked impatiently, "What else is there?"
Xue Qingheng was already dressed and walking towards her, but his clothes were a little disheveled and not as perfect as before, making him look like an immortal who had fallen to earth.
He slowly walked over, took her hand, and when he spoke again, his voice was no longer hoarse and deep, but returned to its usual tone, "Come with me."
Nalan Jingwen stood still. Xue Qingheng's internal energy was now almost depleted, so she was no match for Nalan Jingwen. If she wanted to, she could easily kill him now.
"Where?"
"Return to God's Realm."
Nalan Jingwen's expression was indifferent, his gaze fixed on his somewhat pale, jade-like face.
He just asked her if she remembered anything, and she lied.
She did recall some fragments, but they were incomplete, impossible to piece together, and too disorganized.
After a long standoff, Nalan Jingwen finally said, "I will go with you, but I must first inform Qishan."
Xue Qingheng stared at her, a flash of displeasure crossing his eyes, which he quickly concealed as he released her hand.
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you here in half an hour."
Nalan Jingwen didn't say much and went straight back to his own courtyard.
Liu Qishan lay on a recliner in the courtyard, basking in the sun. It was already autumn, and there was an osmanthus tree in the courtyard, filling the whole courtyard with the fragrance of osmanthus.
Liu Qishan, dressed in green, lay under a tree with pastries beside her. The beauty had her eyes closed, looking serene and content. Some flowers fell to the ground with the breeze, while others landed on Liu Qishan, like embellishments, making her look unreal.
Nalan Jingwen walked over, not wanting to disturb the quiet moment, but Liu Qishan seemed to sense something and opened his eyes.
Those eyes seemed to contain a vast galaxy, captivating people with just one glance.
Upon seeing that it was Nalan Jingwen, he stood up slightly, revealed a gentle smile, wrapped his arms around her waist, and gently rubbed his cheek against her lower abdomen. Nalan Jingwen also touched his smooth, long hair.
Suddenly his movements stiffened slightly. He casually looked up at Nalan Jingwen, his voice still gentle, and said softly:
“Awen smells like someone else.”
