Chapter 109: Romantic Words Under the Moon

“Sh-shut up.” Leng Yuewu scolded in a low voice, but in her voice, no matter how one listened, there was no strength at all.

“Wu’er!” Under the surging blood and Qi, the alcohol rushed to Lei Qing’s head again. Leng Yuewu’s appearance of half-resisting and half-yielding added to his courage. He used his lips to plant a gentle kiss on her earlobe, which was as crystal-clear as jade and warm to the touch. “In my life, I can no longer be without you. Living would have no meaning anymore.”

A tingling sensation, like an electric current, swept through her entire body. Her proud figure, like that of a Fairy from the Nine Heavens, trembled and went soft, collapsing into his broad chest.

In her life, there had been countless admirers, including nobles and even leaders of major power s. But not a single one had ever truly moved her cold heart. Nor had anyone ever dared to profane her like Lei Qing did. Under Lei Qing’s teasing touches and the onslaught of sweet words, her deep eyes, resembling the vast starry sky, gradually became somewhat hazy.

Since the last incident, she had not been as calm on the surface as she appeared. Lei Qing’s words had resonated deeply with her; the more she tried to forget, the harder it was. It was as if it was carved into her bones, impossible to wave away or wipe clean. Especially that one time of madness and passion; it made her feel as if she had been poisoned, craving it intensely.

It was also like a demon smashing open the shackles in her heart, thoroughly releasing the desires deep within her soul.

The more she suppressed it, the stronger the rebound became. Unknowingly, she became obsessed, caring about everything regarding him. Good news made her feel relieved and comfortable. But once she learned of bad news regarding him, she could not control her anger. Unfortunately, the latter obviously happened much more often than the former.

She had always been able to control her emotions, but situations where she couldn’t restrain herself kept appearing. This made her desire to see Lei Qing again increasingly difficult to control.

This was also why, upon first hearing that Lei Qing had conflicted with Li Qianlong, she had rushed non-stop to the headquarters of the Li Chamber of Commerce to visit Li Qianlong.

It wasn’t to say that Lei Qing’s charm was truly enough to make Leng Yuewu lose control completely. It was just that in her life, she had always used the Moon Cold Divine Art to suppress emotions and desires. She had never even held a man’s hand, let alone allowed anyone to enter her heart.

And Lei Qing was the first, and the only one. He was like a bandit, picking the lock, barging into her heart, sitting down, and refusing to leave.

The Moon Cold Divine Art, the unique secret skill of the Palace Master of the Moon Cold Palace, was indeed a remarkable Fighting Secret Art. However, emotions and desires were like a flood; once the dam broke, they would surge forward for a thousand miles, unstoppable by anything. The longer they were suppressed, the more turbulent they became.

“Wu’er…” Lei Qing gently stroked her lower abdomen, looking at the moonlight as he said, “The moon is very clear and beautiful tonight. Wu’er, I always feel you shouldn’t appear in the mortal world. Every time I see the moon, I wonder, is your Moon Cold Palace on the moon? And you are the Fairy on the moon, a Goddess. Unreachable, high above. That one time, for me, was like a spring dream. It made me doubt whether Leng Yuewu really existed in this world, whether a Fairy existed?”

“Don’t mention it again…” As soon as that matter was brought up, Leng Yuewu trembled continuously and scolded him in a low voice.

“No, you violated me, humiliated me, and possessed me so deeply that it is carved into my bones and heart,” Lei Qing kissed her ear gently and said with a roguish smile. “You stole my heart, and now you want to cast me aside after having your fun?”

C-cast me aside after having your fun? Leng Yuewu’s heart was thrown into chaos by Lei Qing, her mind going blank. She never dreamed in her wildest imagination that she would be accused of casting someone aside after having her fun. But she really couldn’t refute it; after all, that day, she was indeed the one who initiated it.

“Wu’er, do you remember?” Lei Qing’s voice became even gentler. “That day, you were so passionate, like fire. If the world knew, if those men who crazily worshipped you and treated you like a Goddess knew… if they knew that the ice-pure Goddess in their hearts, who didn’t eat mortal food and floated above the Nine Heavens, had acted like a wanton woman, riding on a man and indulging herself… what kind of expressions would they have?”

Lei Qing’s provocative words tore away her self-esteem bit by bit. While she resisted, it was as if she was under a curse, her delicate body burning like fire. Although she felt extreme shame in her heart, her body had gone soft and hot, trembling with intense desire. It was almost the same reaction as when she had been drugged by the Saint of Thieves that one time.

She also began to doubt herself. Was her pure and holy side really just a disguise? Was she, at her core, a wanton woman pursuing desire?

Various complex emotions intertwined in her mind. Under Lei Qing’s constant, subtle teasing, the desires she had suppressed for months began to burn fiercely like a raging wildfire.

Seeing the time was ripe, just as Lei Qing prepared to carry her, taking advantage of her half-resistance to return to his room, a noisy sound suddenly came from the courtyard below the roof.

“Sanba, did you find anything over there? Did you see the Boss and the attacker?”

“No, Tieshan. You didn’t find the Boss on your side either?”

A group of Personal Guards, who had just rushed onto the roof to chase after them, had returned after failing to find anyone. A bunch of drunk, burly men started shouting and yelling in the courtyard.

“What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and find the Boss. The Boss definitely chased the thief out.” Li Sanba’s voice sounded muffled. “We need to go help quickly. Motherfcker, once I find out which bastard dared to use a hidden weapon, I’ll chop him into eight pieces.”

The commotion and shouting suddenly woke Leng Yuewu from her dazed state. She hurriedly operated the Moon Cold Divine Art in secret. A cool, clear feeling traveled through her entire body, thoroughly suppressing her desires.

Looking down, she saw Lei Qing’s thieving hand was still unconsciously rubbing her lower abdomen and starting to explore upwards. She felt both ashamed and angry. Just as his claw was about to grab towards that pair of divine peaks, Leng Yuewu grabbed his wrist and twisted it back.

“Ouch.” Caught off guard, how could Lei Qing have known that Leng Yuewu, who was just moments ago lost in passion and burning with desire from his teasing, could do such a thing?

He cried out in pain.

“Boss, it’s the Boss’s voice.”

“Boss, where are you? We’re coming to save you…”

“Save, save my ass.” Lei Qing cursed in his heart while in pain. “A bunch of bastards, you didn’t show up earlier or later, but you just had to show up at this critical moment.”

“It’s nothing, you don’t need to come.” Lei Qing shouted. “The enemy is too strong, but I can handle it alone. You all go back to your rooms and sleep. Did you hear me? That’s a military order.”

“Wow, wow, wow, Boss, you’re looking down on us brothers.” Li Sanba, that fool, roared. “We aren’t a burden. We are the Boss’s Personal Guards. We will protect the Boss with our lives.”

“The Boss is on the roof.”

“Quick, quick, go get a ladder.”

“Motherfcker, hurry up. The Boss was screaming just now, he must be in danger.”

“Boss, hold on, we’re coming to save you right now.”

“Save my ass.” Lei Qing had tears streaming down his face. “They’re all way too loyal.” However, he couldn’t exactly tell them not to come up because their Boss was seducing a girl on the roof, and the girl was the famous Ice Sword Saint, Leng Yuewu.

If he said that, Leng Yuewu’s sword would pierce right through his heart.

“Hmph.” Leng Yuewu’s cold and murderous voice sounded beside Lei Qing’s ear. “If you dare do this to me again, I will really kill you with one sword.”

A stream of Ice Fighting Qi invaded Lei Qing’s body, making his whole body shiver with cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. Immediately after, a soft force struck his chest, knocking him off the roof.

“Wow, who is that?”

“Help!” Lei Qing shouted in mid-air.

“It’s the Boss. Quick, quick, catch the Boss.” A bunch of people clumsily stumbled around, trying to catch him?

But it was only a height of a few dozen feet, and they were a bunch of drunk burly men. Could they really be expected to calculate Lei Qing’s landing spot in this state? Moreover, while running, two of them fell over, and three crashed into each other.

With a loud thud, Lei Qing landed on his butt, seeing stars from the fall.

Fortunately, it was at most three or four dozen feet high. With Lei Qing’s current cultivation of Early-stage Silver, his body was far from ordinary. At the last instant, he instinctively protected his body with Gang Qi.

But even so, he was knocked dizzy. Shaking his blurred vision, he watched a bunch of drunks clumsily trying to pull him up, bellowing like pigs being slaughtered. “Boss, are you alright? Boss, you can’t die! Er Gou, it’s your fault for not catching the Boss. Sanba, it’s because you bumped into me. It’s over, the Boss is dead, let’s avenge the Boss!”

“Dead my ass, avenge my ass.” Lei Qing angrily gave each of them a knock on the head and shouted, “I told you to go back to sleep, that’s a military order. Don’t you understand military orders? Did I teach you guys for nothing? You have too much energy, right? None of you are sleeping tonight. You will train right here in the courtyard. Yang Tieshan.”

“Yes!” Yang Tieshan hurriedly stood at attention, but he was drunk and unsteady on his feet.

“You lead the brothers in training. Train them on obeying military orders all night.”

“Yes, Boss.”

“Hmm?”

“Yes, General. Everyone follow me. Damn it, we made the Boss angry. Tonight, none of you will have a good time.”

…

Lei Qing circulated his Fighting Qi to calm his blood and Qi. Then, wincing from the pain in his butt, he went back to his room and fell asleep. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he felt a cold sensation on his neck.

Startled, he hurriedly opened his eyes, only to see Leng Yuewu holding a Treasure Sword against his neck.
