Chapter 508: Destination: Dead Sea Gorge (2/2)
Huang Peng, Su Yan, and the others sat on Huang Xiaolog’s left side, whereas Shi Xiaofei kept close to Huang Xiaolong’s side on his right. Under the inevitable circumstances, Shi Xiaofei’s sweet virgin fragrance would drift into Huang Xiaolong’s nose, carried by the breeze.
Huang Xiaolong was gratified. There was good wine, delicious meat, and a beauty at his side. There was nothing he lacked; how many people longed for this kind of life!
In the past, when he was on Earth, this was the kind of life he dreamed of.
Probably influenced by the atmosphere, the mood struck Huang Xiaolong and he grabbed a piece of roast meat with his hand, just like Lil’ Tian, and chowed down, eating heartily.
The night slowly passed, and the party lasted until the morning.
With these people’s cultivation, they could go without sleep for several days straight. Hence, one night was nothing.
The party dispersed with the first light of dawn, leaving the place for Shi Xiaofei and Huang Xiaolong alone.
Before Su Yan turned away, she shot a clear, meaningful look at Huang Xiaolong. Inside, he was sweating profusely. Of course, he understood what his mother’s look meant, nothing more than wanting a grandchild.
Shi Xiaofei also caught the look Su Yan shot to Huang Xiaolong, and a tinge of red colored her cheeks.
After everyone left, Huang Xiaolong spoke first, “How have you been these years?” His tone sounded slightly pompous.
Shi Xiaofei spoke softly, “My days were good, how about yours?” Her voice was like a lark singing, clear and moving, making one want to listen to it again and again.
Huang Xiaolong recounted his adventures after leaving Starcloud Continent and upon arriving on the Ten Directions Continent to Shi Xiaofei.
As Shi Xiaofei listened to him narrating about killing the Deities Templar’s Li Molin at the Beast God Shrine Square, becoming the new Lord Beast God, battling one on nine against the Ao Brothers, taking over the Nine Dragons Temple, her eyes shone brighter with admiration.
In return, Shi Xiaofei talked about some of the things she experienced in the past few years. Against Huang Xiaolong’s experiences, hers sounded dull in comparison.
These years, Shi Xiaofei focused solely on increasing her strength. Sometimes she would travel from the Blessed Buddha Empire to the Demonic Beasts Forest, hunting demonic beasts as training to increase her battle capability.
Hearing Shi Xiaofei’s experiences, he reached out and held her hands in his. Her small hands were petite and soft as if there were no bones in them, smooth, supple, and fragrant.
Having her hand suddenly grasped by Huang Xiaolong, Shi Xiaofei quivered, her face flushed a deep red, yet she did not pull her hand away.
He, of course, knew why Shi Xiaofei was cultivating so hard these few years.
“Silly fool.” Huang Xiaolong observed Shi Xiaofei’s beautiful face that could cause the downfall of an empire, emphasizing, “In the future, you don’t need to work so hard, you won’t become a burden to me.” Gently pulling Shi Xiaofei into his embrace, he added, “I will protect you, forever and always.”
Shi Xiaofei’s body stiffened, then gradually loosened, embracing Huang Xiaolong in return with tears rolling down her cheeks. These were tears of happiness.
Forever and always!
This was Huang Xiaolong’s commitment to her, her beloved man’s commitment to her!
A while later, Shi Xiaofei’s soft voice sounded, “Big brother Long, I know about Sister Li Lu, you definitely must rescue Sister Li Lu out from there.”
“We’ll talk about this later.”
Li Lu!
A glint flickered across Huang Xiaolong’s eyes. It was time to totally annihilate Deities Templar! Huang Xiaolong was confident that his current strength was enough to fight Temple Preceptor Ying Tian.
The next day, Huang Xiaolong had Zhao Shu and Zhang Fu gather all the experts and departed to the Dead Sea Gorge.
While Huang Xiaolong was in closed-door practice, Zhao Shu and Zhang Fu located the Deities Templar’s headquarters inside the Dead Sea Gorge.
