Chapter 41

"Husband, I also want to play with you." Xuanyuan Xier looked at Lin Yi with a smile.

Lin Yi shook his head, but he didn't refuse. He reached out to take the wine cup from Yu Xiaotang's hand and drank a cup of nuptial wine with her.

After Yu Xiaotang put the two wine cups into her Storage Ring, Xuanyuan Xier, who was beside them, handed over another cup of wine.

Lin Yi drank another cup with Xuanyuan Xier.

Xuanyuan Xier also put the two wine cups away. She suddenly understood why so many people liked this thing called wine!

Xuanyuan Xier grabbed Lin Yi's hand. Yu Xiaotang, who was beside them, blinked, looking at Lin Yi with reluctance.

"Husband… having drunk the nuptial wine, shouldn't we enter the bridal chamber now?" Xuanyuan Xier smiled charmingly.

Chapter 77: Husband, You Must Be Able to Endure Xier's Entanglement

Yu Xiaotang blushed slightly. Her gaze flickered, but in the end, she didn't ask if she could join in. After all, it was the first time for Xuanyuan Xier and Senior Brother… She was also a woman, so she understood Xuanyuan Xier's thoughts.

She didn't want to break the implicit rules that had been vaguely established. "Then… Senior Brother, I will take my leave now. I wish, I wish you tonight… tonight…"

Yu Xiaotang didn't continue. The remaining words "have a good time" always gave her a weird feeling, as if she were pushing Senior Brother into the arms of another woman.

She hurriedly nodded at Xuanyuan Xier, then pushed the door open and left without looking back.

Hearing the crisp sound of the door closing, Xuanyuan Xier's eyes softened. Her delicate face, which could be pouty or joyful, was suffused with a warm yellow glow, carrying a hint of alluring charm.

Lin Yi looked at Xuanyuan Xier with a half-smile. "Are you that impatient to be married?"

"No way… it's just… it's just…" Xuanyuan Xier's beautiful eyes darted around. The teasing look Old Man Yuan had given when he left surfaced in her mind. "It's just that since Grandfather has already accepted you as my husband, naturally, I want to keep you tied to me…"

"Lest your affection be stolen away by the sisters, and I am left to spend my nights in an empty room, pitying myself in the mirror…"

Xuanyuan Xier's sighing and resentful appearance made Lin Yi find it somewhat amusing.

"Why is my Xier so unconfident in herself?"

Lin Yi hugged Xuanyuan Xier, who was sitting beside him. Xuanyuan Xier took the opportunity to lie in Lin Yi's arms, her exquisite and elegant face resting on Lin Yi's shoulder, her ink-black hair cascading down and mingling with Lin Yi's long hair.

"Because the sisters by your side are all Fairies of this world. Naturally, I dare not boast about myself. If people were to hear that, wouldn't I be ridiculed?" Xuanyuan Xier argued logically.

She felt a little ashamed inside. Before, she had said that Su Lingshu was muddled from drinking, which was inexplicable. Wasn't she being inexplicable now too?

"Who dares to ridicule you? Ask yourself, is my sword sharp?" Lin Yi gave a light snort. "In my heart, Xier is worthy of the title of the world's number one beauty!"

Although she knew Lin Yi was just coaxing her, Xuanyuan Xier was still very happy. A smile played on her lips. "Then what about the sisters?"

"Of course, they are also the world's number one beauties." Lin Yi said indifferently without hesitation.

"How can there be several number one beauties in the world?" Xuanyuan Xier looked at Lin Yi's matter-of-fact attitude and smiled.

"Well, the three great divine palaces in the world also number four." Lin Yi curled his lips. "It's perfectly normal for the so-called four great experts to number five, so it's only right that there should be several number one beauties in the world."

"Smooth talker." Xuanyuan Xier pursed her lips and chuckled.

Lin Yi didn't say anything more. The two sat together, watching the snowflakes drifting outside the window that had just been opened. From time to time, some fine snow flew in, slowly melting in the lamplight, like moths to a flame.

After a while.

"Husband, Xier is a little cold." Xuanyuan Xier's eyes were quiet, with the flickering flames dancing in her pupils.

"Then let's go back to the room." Lin Yi hugged her tighter. How could a Golden Core Stage Cultivator be cold? It was just Xuanyuan Xier's way of easing the tension of a young girl facing her first time.

"Okay." Xuanyuan Xier nodded. She turned her head, her jade-like face full of seriousness. "Then Husband, you carry me back."

Lin Yi chuckled and nodded. He reached out to lift Xuanyuan Xier's delicate body. Her wide skirt spread out, flickering in the lamplight.

Xuanyuan Xier wrapped her jade arms around Lin Yi's neck, her little face pressed against his chest. The sound of his heartbeat echoed in the silent night, and Xuanyuan Xier always had a feeling of unreality.

She… had really found her home…

It wasn't arranged by the Family, nor was it someone she had no feelings for… The person she liked and the person who liked her happened to be the same person.

In those storybooks, there had never been such a coincidence.

Most of those stories required the male and female leads to go through thousands of setbacks and make vows of eternal love before they could be together.

This was to teach people that the word "love" required experiencing thousands of dangers and hardships. Only after both sides were exhausted and covered in wounds could they let go of their prejudices against each other, accept each other's filth and darkness, and finally end up with a neither happy nor sad conclusion.

How boring.

Xuanyuan Xier still preferred the love between herself and her husband.

"Husband." Xuanyuan Xier suddenly spoke. The slightly dark corridor and the palace lanterns passing by from time to time made her pretty face flicker between light and shadow.

"Hmm." Lin Yi replied.

Xuanyuan Xier didn't speak again.

After a while, she spoke again.

"Husband."

"I'm here." Lin Yi replied again.

Xuanyuan Xier stopped again.

"Husband."

"I'm here."

The two seemed to be playing a game, one calling and one answering, until Xuanyuan Xier finally couldn't help it and let out a laugh like silver bells.

Lin Yi's lips curled up. His fingertips felt the slight depression of Xuanyuan Xier's plumpness… carrying the gentleness unique to Xuanyuan Xier. A faint, elegant fragrance lingered at the tip of Lin Yi's nose, and the black skirt swayed slightly as they walked.

"Husband…" Xuanyuan Xier called out again. This time, her tone became a bit more alluring.

Although she was just a young girl, she possessed a richness and maturity that Yu Xiaotang could not compare to at all…

These thoughts flashed through Lin Yi's mind.

"Unh-hunh." Lin Yi smiled and nodded.

"Husband, you won't get tired of Xier because of this in the future, right?" Xuanyuan Xier looked at Lin Yi's chin through the dimness.

"If Xier…" Lin Yi appeared to be deep in thought.

This made Xuanyuan Xier pout. "Not allowed! No matter what, Husband is not allowed to get tired of Xier!!"

Xuanyuan Xier hummed. "Anyway, Husband must be able to endure Xier's entanglement."

Lin Yi looked at Xuanyuan Xier's somewhat clingy appearance with a smile and couldn't help but lower his head to bite her lip. "Okay, then Xier must entangle with Husband more…"

Lin Yi deliberately emphasized the words "entangle." Xuanyuan Xier's face flushed slightly, and she pursed her red lips, the slight tingling sensation still lingering in her senses.

"Then Xier will entangle you to death, Husband, so you won't have the energy to find other sisters. Hmph!" Xuanyuan Xier said quite boldly.

Lin Yi shook his head as if sighing. "So Xier is a little silver snake…"

"Xier is not a little silver snake!!" Xuanyuan Xier retorted.

"Snakes are naturally… plus Xier said she wanted to entangle with Husband, so naturally, she is a little silver snake…"

Xuanyuan Xier wanted to continue arguing, but after rolling her eyes, she pouted. "A little silver snake is a little silver snake. Anyway, I only entangle with Husband. If Husband doesn't feed Xier enough, Xier won't allow it…"

Fortunately, no maids were passing by, otherwise Xuanyuan Xier's image as a princess would have collapsed.

The two bickered like this, and before long, they pushed open the door and walked into Xuanyuan Xier's room.

It was roughly similar to Lu Jiajing's room next door, but it had more of Xuanyuan Xier's personal style. It was not as clean and elegant as Lu Jiajing's, but it carried an air of royal grace and nobility.

Lin Yi placed Xuanyuan Xier on the large bed in the inner room. Before Lin Yi could get up, Xuanyuan Xier had already hooked her legs and pulled Lin Yi into her embrace.

Xuanyuan Xier turned over and pressed Lin Yi underneath her, her plumpness… pressing against Lin Yi's chest. Her elegant little face carried a hint of a smile. "Husband… tonight you are mine…"

Lin Yi held Xuanyuan Xier's small hands, and their fingers interlaced. Xuanyuan Xier's small hands were a little cool, but they immediately warmed up under Lin Yi's large hands.

"Rather, Xier, you are mine tonight." Lin Yi turned over and pressed Xuanyuan Xier underneath him again.

Xuanyuan Xier's pink face was slightly stunned, then she pursed her lips, and uncontrollable smiles bloomed on her face. "Husband, my dear Husband, I can feel… your…"

Before Xuanyuan Xier could finish those shameful words, Lin Yi had already leaned over…

Xuanyuan Xier's heart skipped a beat. She watched as Lin Yi's handsome face leaned in… Her delicate body became softer and softer.

The large curtain fell, and their figures were hidden by the layers of drapes. A faint warm yellow glow suffused the space. Lin Yi looked at the young girl lying on the black skirt.

Xuanyuan Xier's gaze was soft. She had already shown Lin Yi everything of hers, not just the secrets in her heart, but also…

Lin Yi lowered his head, looking at her with pity and love. He lowered his head to kiss her lightly, and Xuanyuan Xier turned her head slightly, offering herself completely…

Her lustrous jade-like neck, Xuanyuan Xier's gaze was soft… Leaving small… A little fragrant sweat seeped from Xuanyuan Xier's body, flowing over her delicate body with her movements, slowly sliding across…

Xuanyuan Xier looked at Lin Yi resentfully, her voice extremely soft. "Husband…"

Lin Yi smiled and lowered his head again. Xuanyuan Xier just watched Lin Yi, and then…

"Mmm…"

Xuanyuan Xier's slightly closed beautiful eyes opened subconsciously, her eyes unfocused, staring blankly at the young man's pupils in front of her, which reflected her own face.

Her embroidered eyebrows were slightly furrowed, yet they still carried that touch of nobility, and her elegant brows carried a hint of paleness…

Xuanyuan Xier's fair hands hugged Lin Yi's arms tightly, her fingertips sinking slightly into Lin Yi's shoulders.

And the clepsydra in the hall was still ticking rhythmically and punctually.

Lin Yi's fingertips were light… A few breaths overlapped, causing Xuanyuan Xier's brows to relax slightly. Her eyes were filled with tears, which only made her look more like a lotus flower emerging from the water, pure and alluring.

"Husband…" Xuanyuan Xier said in a sweet, sticky voice.

"Xier." Lin Yi lowered his head again, kissing Xuanyuan Xier's lips.

Xuanyuan Xier's eyes were moist, and the lamplight outside the tent flickered, shining on both Lin Yi and Xuanyuan Xier, making their shadows stretch… and then shrink…

The sound of the water clock in the palace continued, long and short.

Xuanyuan Xier looked up at the shadows cast by the lamplight above her. She tightly pursed her thin lips, and her beautiful eyes were already slightly closed. Her fingers had already sunk into Lin Yi's skin again, and Lin Yi just looked at her with a smile.

Until…

Xuanyuan Xier "desperately" closed her eyes again. She sighed slightly, and the hands that were originally gripping Lin Yi's shoulders reached out to the curtain above her head, but… her slender jade arms were already held by Lin Yi when they were halfway there.

Xuanyuan Xier opened her eyes abruptly, her pupils shrinking. Her pretty face wore a look of slight fear. She sat up, and Lin Yi looked at Xuanyuan Xier at this moment with some astonishment.

She turned over, and Lin Yi blinked. She looked at Lin Yi's shocked expression, and as Xuanyuan Xier's face became more and more fearful, along with the slight, silent sound of the water clock…

Xuanyuan Xier's delicate body fell into Lin Yi's arms.

Lin Yi hugged her and pulled the quilt from the side to wrap them both up. A little sweat made them both feel a bit sticky…

But it was precisely this warm, sticky feeling that made Lin Yi and Xuanyuan Xier feel that they were very, very close…

The sound of the water clock continued.

After a while, Xuanyuan Xier moved again.

She hugged Lin Yi tightly, her beautiful and exquisite little face showing a hint of fatigue. Her body, which had been straight, now lay in Lin Yi's arms like a small beast.

"Husband…" Xuanyuan Xier's voice was a bit hoarse.

Lin Yi's fingertips twined around a lock of Xuanyuan Xier's hair, and a lingering fragrance came from Xuanyuan Xier's body.

Lin Yi didn't reply, and Xuanyuan Xier didn't speak again. The two quietly enjoyed this moment, the lingering remnants making them feel a little tipsy.

Lin Yi was actually surprised by that somewhat crazy scene from Xuanyuan Xier. Although her face wore a look of fear, her body rejected her consciousness, and instead, more firmly pursued an overwhelming victory.

There was a subtle sense of admiration.

Lin Yi's lips curled up slightly. "Xier, the end really caught me off guard."

Xuanyuan Xier didn't open her eyes. "Husband, please don't tease Xier. Xier never thought she would be like that…"

"Husband… you won't think Xier is too, too… too much, right…" Xuanyuan Xier asked nervously immediately after.

"Of course not, rest assured."

Lin Yi's voice was the same as usual. Xuanyuan Xier breathed a sigh of relief. She recalled her behavior just now… Mmm… it was indeed a bit too much…

Xuanyuan Xier buried her head in Lin Yi's arms with some shyness.

Lin Yi's gaze turned to his System interface. After having Xuanyuan Xier, the mission named Fuxue Palace Master had been completed.
