GDK 537: Can’t Help Myself
Throughout their walk towards the warehouse of War Demon Valley, Jasper’s dazzling eyes lingered on Han Shuo’s body. She asked Han Shuo with the utmost interest, “Mister Han Shuo, have you really come from outside of our Abyss realm?”
Han Shuo nodded with chagrin and helplessly replied, “You have asked that same question three times already. I am not of this realm. What more must I say to make you believe me?”
“I believe you!” Jasper said as she smiled and quickly continued, “I’m just curious. Hehe, never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that there are other material planes out there. It’s truly remarkable to think that you have come from another plane!”
“Oh, right, have you been meditating during these past few days using the method I taught you?” Han Shuo was afraid that Jasper would ask the same question again, and so he tried to change the topic.
“Of course! I have been meditating this whole time. And yet, I have not been able to sense the presence of mental strength,” Jasper replied with knitted brows on her beautiful face, appearing rather vexed.
“It’s okay, this is not to be rushed. As long as you keep meditating, with the wind element in your body as the fundamental, you will definitely be able to sense it sooner or later,” Han Shuo consoled her. After thinking for a short while, from his space ring, he withdrew a delicate silver chain that had a green crystal the size of palm strung on it, and handed it to Jasper.
The green crystal was dug out from the staff of a wind magus that Han Shuo had previously murdered. The green crystal had the ability to store the wind element and amplify wind magic spells. An average magus who used the green crystal during their cultivation would be able to sense wind elemental energy quicker.
The chain made from mithril sparkled glorious and silver, complementing the glimmer and translucence of the green crystal that was emitting faint light. Even without all the advantages it had for a wind magus, it would still be a fine piece of jewelry.
In the same fashion that Hemanna and Sylph had reacted, when Han Shuo revealed the jewel, Jasper’s eyes sprung wide open and glowed as her gaze fixed onto the green crystal necklace. In a pleasantly surprised manner, she said, “What a beautiful necklace! Is this for me?”
“Take it. Put it on when you meditate. Perhaps it will let you sense the presence of mental strength even quicker,” Han Shuo said dully as he generously handed the necklace to Jasper. He wouldn’t at all mourn parting with a magic crystal of such grade.
“Thank you! Thank you Mister Han Shuo! You truly are remarkable! Cute too!” Jasper was delighted as she gently and carefully received the crystal necklace from Han Shuo. Then, out of nowhere, she tipped her toes and leaned into Han Shuo. Her fragrant, cherry-red lips met with Han Shuo’s left cheek for a brief moment.
The fresh and sweet fragrance immediately entered Han Shuo’s nose. The sensation of her soft, moist lips traveled from his face into his heart. He touched where Jasper kissed him with his left hand, and subconsciously put it over his nose. He whispered to himself, “You smell gorgeous…”
Jasper’s charming face was still radiating the luster of joy and excitement. She wasn’t bashful about her actions at all. She admiringly fondled the magic crystal necklace in her hand, and did not seem bothered one bit by what she had just done.
Crude thoughts began to flood Han Shuo’s mind as his eyes traced Jasper’s body…
Her tender white skin, slender, willowy body, the pair of swan-like wings as white as snow…
Whichever angle he looked, Jasper was breathtaking. Especially those wings; they made Han Shuo’s intense desire to possess her burn even more vigorously.
At this moment, the two were walking towards a rather uninhabited region of the valley. Not a living soul wished to call that place home as it wasn’t too far from the War Demon Valley warehouse, a heavily guarded place. Only a rare few strangely-shaped plants and tall rocks arranged in a disordered manner filled the land.
Smelling the faint fragrance that still remained on his fingertips and gazing at Jasper right ahead with angelic beauty, an unrestrainable desire rose from Han Shuo’s heart. Conforming to the cultivation philosophy of doing as the heart wished, Han Shuo did not restrain from taking action almost as soon as the thought arose. He suddenly stretched his big hand forward and placed it on Jasper’s wings.
