BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66: Benefits of Dual Cultivation With Liu Xue
Liu Xue gasped, her breath catching in her throat. Her mind reeled, caught between the intoxicating euphoria and the remnants of her training and discipline.
Wang Li's voice, low and seductive, brushed against her ear. "So," he murmured, "do you want to experience the true potential of my ability?"
Liu Xue's voice came out in a breathless whisper. "Y-yes," she stammered, the words barely audible against the roar of desire thundering through her.
This was her chance, a shortcut to power that she couldn't ignore. The consequences, whatever they might be, were a distant thought drowned out by the intoxicating energy coursing through her veins.
A slow, predatory smile spread across Wang Li's face.
His hands, swift and practiced, found their way beneath the hem of her robes, sending shivers down her spine.
He rained soft kisses across her cheeks, each touch sending another wave of euphoria crashing over her.
Finally, his lips met hers in a searing kiss, a demand that quickly turned into a desperate plea.
Overwhelmed by the sensations, Liu Xue melted into his embrace, her resistance crumbling like sandcastles under a tidal wave.
They stumbled back, collapsing onto the soft bed in a tangle of limbs and desire.
The room, once filled with the faint scent of sandalwood incense, now held the musky aroma of raw attraction, a stark contrast to the serene atmosphere moments ago.
As their clothes became mere obstacles, Wang Li's Yin Yang Cultivation Ability worked its magic, drawing upon Liu Xue's surrender and fueling the exchange of energy.
He reveled in the feeling, his own cultivation base surging with renewed power as he manipulated the flow of Yin and Yang between them.
The night stretched on, filled with stolen kisses, heated touches, and Liu Xue's desperate gasps as the euphoric energy pulsed through her, pushing her towards the very edge of ecstasy.
In that haze of pleasure and power, she surrendered to Wang Li and became a pawn in his elaborate game, her morals and loyalty sacrificed at the altar of his unique ability.
The night wore on, a tapestry woven from stolen moments and whispered promises.
Wang Li, consumed by the intoxicating power surging through him, indulged in his desires with a boldness born from stolen pleasure. He reveled in the innocence and passion of his conquest, claiming Liu Xue's body as a trophy in his elaborate scheme.
As the first rays of dawn painted the sky with streaks of pink and orange, they lay entangled on the bed, exhausted from their passionate encounter. The once crisp white sheets were now rumpled and stained, a testament to the night's events.
Shame began to gnaw at Liu Xue. She stirred in Wang Li's embrace, a tremor running through her as the enormity of her actions finally sunk in.
"Wang Li," she whispered, her voice thick with regret, "I… I didn't expect things to go this far."
He stirred beside her, his arm tightening around her waist. "Don't worry about it," he murmured, his voice husky with sleep. "It happens."
Liu Xue winced at his nonchalant response. This wasn't "it happens" for her. It was a monumental lapse in judgment, a tangled web she now found herself trapped in.
"I shouldn't have…" she started, but Wang Li cut her off.
"Look," he said, his voice surprisingly gentle, "we both got caught up in the moment. It doesn't have to mean anything more. We can pretend it never happened."
His suggestion was logical, the only path forward to maintain their facade. A hollow sense of relief washed over her. This was the only way she could look Qingwu in the eye without shame consuming her whole being.
With a heavy heart, they disentangled themselves from each other's embrace. The silence that followed was thick with unspoken emotions.
Wang Li, ever the opportunist, slipped out of bed and made his way to the washroom for a cleansing bath.
While he was gone, Liu Xue used this time to gather her bearings. Shame was still present, but a strange sense of exhilaration bubbled beneath the surface. The boost to her cultivation was undeniable, a power surge that tingled through her very core.
After a refreshing bath, both she and Wang Li donned elegant clothes, their faces a mask of normalcy. The air, however, held a different charge – a subtle tension that spoke volumes about the night's events.
They sat down, cross-legged, and began to assess their cultivation progress.
Wang Li closed his eyes, focusing on the surge of energy coursing through his body. His eyes snapped open a moment later, a surprised gasp escaping his lips. The effects of their night were far more profound than he'd anticipated. His cultivation base had rocketed, solidifying in the middle-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
The capacity of his Nascent Soul had nearly doubled, a significant boost to his overall power.
Liu Xue's experience was equally transformative. As she channeled her energy, she felt the difference immediately. Her cultivation had progressed from the peak of the middle stage to the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
But beyond that, she could sense a qualitative change within herself. Her Spiritual Root, once a low-grade Tier 6 Sovereign Elemental Root, had undergone a dramatic upgrade, now reaching the peak-grade of the same tier.
This was a monumental leap for her, a power boost she had only dreamed of.
A complicated mix of emotions swirled within her. Guilt battled with a newfound sense of empowerment.
Despite her transgression, she couldn't deny the undeniable allure of enhanced power. It was a forbidden fruit that she had tasted, and a part of her craved another bite. Shame, however, kept her tongue firmly in check.
Wang Li, a keen observer, caught the flicker of emotions in her eyes. A sly smile played on his lips, though he feigned innocence. "Well, Xue'er," he said, his voice smooth, "it seems our little… agreement has been fruitful."
Liu Xue knew then that he was aware of her inner turmoil. Shame threatened to consume her again, but the undeniable boost to her power held an allure she couldn't ignore. Nevertheless, she remained silent, her heart a battlefield of conflicting emotions.
With a parting smile, he slipped out of the room, leaving Liu Xue alone with her tangled thoughts.
The first order of business was to erase any evidence of their night. With a flick of her wrist, she channeled her spiritual energy, purging the room of any lingering scents or traces of intimacy. Fresh air flooded the room as she opened the windows, dispelling the musky fragrance that had clung to the air like a ghost.
As the morning sun fully bathed the room in warm light, Liu Xue stood at the window, a picture of serenity. Yet, beneath the calm exterior, a storm raged.
She had tasted forbidden fruit and she had to stop herself from desiring more of that forbidden fruit.
A satisfied smirk played on Wang Li's lips as he slipped out of Liu Xue's chamber. The night's exploits had been far more fruitful than he'd anticipated. His cultivation base had taken a significant leap, propelling him into the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, and the invigorating energy exchange had left him feeling rejuvenated.
Now, with a spring in his step, he headed towards Xia Bingling's chamber.
The air hung heavy with the anticipation of a familiar rendezvous.
Tiptoeing through the silent corridors, Wang Li reached her door. With a practiced flick of his wrist, the lock yielded silently.
Inside, Xia Bingling lay fast asleep, a picture of serenity bathed in the soft moonlight. Her silk nightgown clung to her curves in a way that sent a jolt of desire through him.
A wolfish grin spread across Wang Li's face. He approached the bed silently, his movements predator-like. He knelt beside her, his hand reaching out to gently stroke her cheek.
The touch sent a jolt through Xia Bingling. Her eyes fluttered open, blinking away sleep as she focused on the handsome face hovering above her.
"Mmm… Wang Li?" Xia Bingling mumbled, her voice thick with sleep. "What are you doing here?"
Wang Li chuckled softly, his lips trailing kisses down her neck. "Just checking on my favorite Matriarch," he murmured, his voice a husky whisper. "And reaping the rewards of a successful mission, of course."
Xia Bingling's heart skipped a beat. "Did you… did you seduce Liu Xue?" she asked, her voice laced with anticipation.
Wang Li chuckled, a low rumble in his chest. "Let's just say," he began, his voice dropping to a seductive purr, "I can never fail in these types of missions."
He didn't need to elaborate. A knowing smile lit up Xia Bingling's face. Her fingers reached out, tracing a path down his arm, sending a jolt of electricity through him.
He wasted no time. His hand dipped beneath the silken sheets, finding its way to the soft curves of her body. She gasped, a moan escaping her lips as his touch ignited a familiar fire within her.
"You're insatiable," she whispered, her voice husky with desire.
"And you," he replied, his voice a low growl, "are irresistible."
Their early morning encounter was a whirlwind of heated kisses, stolen touches, and whispered promises. With a practiced expertise born of years of experience, Wang Li knew exactly how to push Xia Bingling's buttons, how to bring her to the precipice of pleasure before pulling back just enough to leave her yearning for more.
As the first rays of dawn painted the sky a delicate pink, they finally collapsed onto the bed, intertwined and breathless. Xia Bingling, her hair a mess, a satisfied smile playing on her lips, could barely remember how their night started, but she reveled in the feeling of complete fulfillment.
Wang Li, however, kept one eye open. He knew it wouldn't be long before the day's activities began. But for now, he allowed himself to bask in the afterglow, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. He had secured two powerful allies in one night, his plan unfolding perfectly.
Yet, a small seed of worry had been planted in his mind. The way Liu Xue had responded to his touch, the flicker of desire in her eyes – it was a wild card he hadn't anticipated. He knew he had to tread carefully, balancing his needs with the potential benefits of a powerful ally.
With a sigh, he pulled Xia Bingling closer, burying his face in her hair. The day's challenges loomed, but for now, he allowed himself a moment of respite, savoring the fruits of his cunning and undeniable charm.
