The night came. For everyone, it all felt so fast. But to Xie Ruo whose daily life was listening to the lectures of elders from the previous generation, that one hour felt like 100 years.
In the end, Xie Ruo managed to escape from the entanglement of his great-grandmother and the Goddess of Life who kept saying strange and ambiguous things. Thinking about it made him creep.
Walking alone to the prepared room, Xie Ruo was grateful that her long skirt had been removed and left behind a skirt that she should have worn from the beginning. He can run free ....
Xie Ruo had Shi Yang cook the food and sent it to the room. Don't know if the girl has prepared it on order.
He opened the double door of his large room, at the same time, a super large room greeted him. Really, this time it was bigger than the rooms in the Underworld Palace and the rooms he had occupied before both in the Holy Tower and in the rooms he occupied yesterday.
The double bed at the end becomes the center of the room, surrounded by bookshelves and a variety of additional items that add to the impression of elegance and spacious.
There is a dressing room in one corner complete with sets of clothes and makeup on a long dressing table. There is also a large bathroom accompanied by a large round pond, such as a fish pond.
If it was like this, wouldn't Xie Ruo who didn't like the crowd be more at home in the room without doing anything? He only needed to lie down and cultivate as he pleased. One more thing, the balcony section is perfect for weapons testing. He saw that the walls were thick and strong, definitely soundproof and explosion-proof. It was not like his room in the Holy Tower.
Then, one thing came into Xie Ruo's limelight next. Food is served on the table!
Xie Ruo's mood suddenly surged into happiness. He ran to the table, then sat down and picked up some food. The taste .. was exactly like Shi Yang's cooking. His funny student was very attentive. Unlike the second student who is dumb.
While eating, a servant knocked on the door. Xie Ruo was somewhat annoyed to have been bullied and was forced to stop eating.
"Lake in!"
The door opened slightly, a servant entered and gave a tray of white cloths towards Xie Ruo. Xie Ruo looked at him confusedly.
"What's this?"
"Your Majesty, this is a cloth to cover the head. The last ceremony was held at night. Other than His Majesty the Emperor, no one is allowed to open the cloth."
The corner of Xie Ruo's eyes twitched. Does he have to do something like this? Come on, he just wants to eat a little. He already felt his flesh shrink now.
"Can't it be missed?" Previously he did not use a head covering, why now still have to use it? Just bother.
The waiter was a bit surprised, then spoke carefully. "This is a tradition that has survived for thousands of years. In addition to opening the cloth, will drink the wine provided. After that, Your Majesty may eat this food."
Xie Ruo felt like crying. His stomach was rumbling very big after the waiter said a painful thing. She was ashamed of her own stomach, and was also upset.
Never mind, he only wished for Qu Xuanzi to come sooner and complete the ceremony. After that, he could eat.
"I already know." Xie Ruo picked up the cloth, then stood away from the food half-dead.
The servant helped Xie Ruo put on the head covering, then directed him to sit on the bed. This made Xie Ruo even more lazy.
Patience ... just a little while longer .. His half-dead rumbling stomach and continue to sound it will stop with relief.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
After taking care of the gods he forced to leave, Qu Xuanzi finally heaved a sigh of relief. He shouldn't have done this shitty job, but the gods were so irritated to want to meet him with all sorts of affairs. As a result, he expelled them indirectly, saying the party was over and ignoring the protests of the Goddess of Life.
Qu Xuanzi left the hall. What is Xie Ruo doing? Ever since the Goddess of Life brought her, she had not met the woman and had no idea what she was doing and how she was in her mood.
"Your Majesty, the Dragon Goddess Heir is waiting." A waiter gave me news. Behind him were two servants carrying each tray. One contained two wine sticks, and one contained a silver stick used to remove the covering.
Qu Xuanzi just remembered another ceremony performed in the evening. If it was like that, had Xie Ruo been waiting for too long?
Without saying anything, he set foot toward the room followed by the three maids. It did not take too long to arrive, one of the servants opened the door wide.
Qu Xuanzi walked in, looking at the figure of the woman with the head covering, sitting upright on the edge of the bed without moving a single inch. His breath was very calm as if ... asleep.
"You can go."
The three maids left and closed the door after putting two trays on the table. Qu Xuanzi walked towards Xie Ruo, then took out a stick to open the head covering cloth.
As he had expected, Xie Ruo fell asleep in a sitting state. It seemed like he had been in the hall for too long and had Xie Ruo wait until he fell asleep. It looks like a puppet.
Qu Xuanzi sat down next to him to take a look, but the action left Xie Ruo shocked and woke up. Spontaneously and the usual act of vigilance he practiced, his hands floated up and took out a small knife at his fingertips and pointed towards Qu Xuanzi.
Qu Xuanzi endured Xie Ruo's attack with the silver stick in his hand in time, before the blade slashed his neck. Apparently, Xie Ruo was still on guard at all times.
Xie Ruo who was aware of who he was attacking instantly pulled out his knife and lowered his hand in surprise. His habit of carrying hidden weapons had not changed. In every inch of his clothes there were always sharp and small weapons.
"Xuanziis? Why not tell? What if I really cut you?" Xie Ruo sighed in relief. His spontaneous reaction always harms people.
Qu Xuanzi smiled. "It won't happen."
"You came to open this, didn't you? This cloth blocks the view, making me sleepy." Xie Ruo blew a cloth blow that blocked his view boredly.
Qu Xuanzi opened the head covering quickly so that Xie Ruo's gaze was unobstructed anymore. Her beautiful face was revealed. This time, it is very noticeable Xie Ruo remove a little makeup—maybe because it is uncomfortable—so his face looks purer.
"Obviously, my wife?"
Xie Ruo looked at Qu Xuanzi somewhat embarrassedly. Why would there be a call? It's not unusual! He wanted to protest, but his stomach protested first until he hurriedly picked up two wine and one of them was handed over to Qu Xuanzi.
"The waiter said he should drink wine. Since the wine was always low on alcohol, I couldn't get drunk." Xie Ruo grumbled.
"If it's high on alcohol, you've been sleeping in the hall ever since." After all it was dangerous to let Xie Ruo get drunk in public.
"Then will you get drunk if you drink wine in the Upper World?" Xie Ruo remembered that it should be that the Upper World wine had a higher alcohol level, plus it had good spiritual power for the body.
"No." Qu Xuanzi did not remember ever being drunk.
"Then from that, there's no need to worry if I take another wine. I'm not gonna get drunk anymore." All this time, Xie Ruo had already been training to be immune to wine in the Sacred Tower. Therefore, he had already asked Shi Yang to prepare the wine with his meal.
Xie Ruo drank the low alcohol wine in his hands, as did Qu Xuanzi. After drinking it, Xie Ruo immediately got up and ran towards the food for fun. He could drink good wine from the Upper World, how good it was. After all, he was no longer a child like that.
Xie Ruo ate voraciously. Shi Yang's cuisine was very good despite being cold from waiting too long. It's okay, he can heat it using cold fire while eating.
Qu Xuanzi just looked. He got out of bed, then leaned against the wall while looking at the cool Xie Ruo himself. The sudden change in mood was funny.
Xie Ruo looked towards Qu Xuanzi, then said. "You're not coming?"
Qu Xuanzi chuckled slightly, then lowered his head to wipe away the leftovers on Xie Ruo's lips then said, "You alone."
Xie Ruo shook his shoulders indifferently. He was more pleased because all this food was his, not divided. It's greedy, but what else?
The pure energy in his body caused the incoming food to be instantly digested. His stomach was quickly empty despite having eaten a lot. That was why, Xie Ruo felt that he would become a skeleton if he did not eat.
But, there are times when he mostly eats, all the food is stacked so that pure energy is difficult to digest quickly. As a result, Xie Ruo would have a stomachache and would have to digest everything by regulating the energy in the body.
In addition, if he eats too much after a long time of not eating, he can also have stomach pain due to experiencing a shock in the intestine. It could not just set the energy to solve the problem, but instead had to go to the restroom to throw it all away.
But as a result he will be hungry again, although not as much as before.
This is what happened to Xie Ruo. After all was devoured by the gluttonous foodie, the next session was a stomachache session.
Xie Ruo held onto his aching stomach, then stood up to go to the restroom. This was nothing new to him, but Qu Xuanzi seemed to be worried.
"Ruoruo?" Qu Xuanzi clearly did not know the special condition of this one Xie Ruo. He thought his food was poisoned.
"Not a big deal, no problem at all. I just ... want to go to the toilet ...." Xie Ruo ignored his embarrassment and rushed straight towards the restroom.
But as soon as he crossed the front door, he felt the presence of some people that exasperated him to death. He opened the main door a bit rough until some figures behind it fell to the floor right in front of Xie Ruo's feet.
"Basic ...." Suddenly Xie Ruo was annoyed.
Mei Liena and Zhong Xiaorong got up from the floor. The Goddess of Life who did not fall just put on an innocent face and pretended not to see. Apparently, this condition was beyond his estimation. But he planned it very well.
Xie Ruo did not want to know what they were thinking when they pretended not to see it. Xie Ruo snorted, leaving just like that to the restroom.
The Goddess of Life peered towards Qu Xuanzi who was standing with both hands folded. Their gaze met, suddenly the Goddess of Life became shrivelled.
"Go!"
Qu Xuanzi's extremely cold voice pierced their ears. The plan failed miserably, they could only leave with a look of guiltless abandon. They just wanted to eavesdrop on what was going on inside, who would have thought that Xie Ruo was making things messy with his beloved food.
Mei Liena could only sigh. "I'm not going to repeat it, my head almost disappeared."
"I've told you many times." Zhong Xiaorong shuddered in horror given that cold gaze. He recalled how Qu Xuanzi had slaughtered everyone in the Glass Pagoda.
"Actually, Xiao Zi wasn't that bad. He's just a little stiff." The Goddess of Life still conspired on her own. It was he who proposed all plans to eavesdrop on the pastor's activities.
"Goddess, you don't know what it's like when the Celestial Emperor has raised his sword." To be honest, Mei Liena was still somewhat traumatized even though she sometimes forgot about it. When he saw that cold gaze, he immediately recalled the unpleasant thing that would have taken his life if there was no Xie Ruo.
When he first came and told of his promise with the previous Goddess of Life and said that Qu Xuanzi should call her mother, the man unsheathed the sword would remove her head.
Despite being young, it was still Qu Xuanzi. It was fortunate that the previous Celestial Emperor directly interceded, he had the support of the previous Celestial Emperor so that he could still live until now.
On the other hand, Xie Ruo was in the restroom deciding to take a bath to calm the mind. He was a bit drunk because of the wine brought, so he had to calm his mind. If he gets drunk, he'll make a big fuss again.
Now, what should he do?
"Of course, do your first night routine!" Long Long Long suddenly spoke in Xie Ruo's mind until the woman was somewhat surprised.
"Long Long, how did you suddenly appear? Just be surprised." Xie Ruo grumbled.
"Miss ... Oh, shall I call you Madam or Emperor's Wife?"
"Miss, I'm not that old."
"In that case, I'll call you Madam."
Xie Ruo's feelings asked him to keep calling 'Miss'. Never mind, the call is not important at all.
"Mrs, you better not be here too long. Your Majesty must be waiting. Otherwise, he'll break through and pounce on you right now."
Xie Ruo frowned. "Use human language." Xie Ruo did not want any ambiguous and strange speech to enter his ears. He was too lazy to think.
"Do you still not understand? What the bride and groom have to do on the first night, don't you know?" Long Long Long was not sure his already very mature mistress did not know.
"Of course you know." Xie Ruo responded lightly.
"Miss, you're so calm that I think you don't know anything."
"Do you have to behave strangely and run away out of fear? I'm not a drunk Rongrong."
"You're drunk too."
"I'm not drunk." Xie Ruo sighed. "Here you go, I'd rather talk about something serious. I wonder, when will Liena finish making the bidder. Poor little chef I have to suffer."
"Miss, everything's gonna be fine."
"Humans are so weak, only poisons have suffered like that." The Thunder Spirit sneered.
"You are a spirit without a physical body, in contrast to a being with a physical body!" Long Long Long was bluffing the Thunder Spirit once again.
"Basar the great old dragon's mouth! Not because I'm small, you easily bully me. I'm just saying the truth!"
"But you're underestimating the lives of so many people!"
"Life, not soul. If they die, they can still incarnate."
"Your incarnation! The Spirit World was sealed, how could one incarnate?"
"Therefore, after all this is done, they can incarnate and live life well. Basic shallow-minded!"
"You are shallow! If everyone thinks like you, there are only murderers in this world!"
"Bas on a weak old dragon!"
"You ...."
"Enough!" Xie Ruo pulled them all out and threw them into a corner. The ball of feathers rolled with the white dragon and was pitifully cornered. Who told you to fight and make Xie Ruo dizzy?
"Mistress, she bullies me, huaaa." The ball of fur whined, whereas Xie Ruo only looked at it with a cold gaze. Really sucks.
As long as Long Long and the Thunder Spirit were outside of his consciousness, it was fine for Xie Ruo to bring out the contents of his true thoughts.
In fact, Xie Ruo was a bit nervous to the point of lingering in the water.
After the shower was over and put on clothes, Xie Ruo opened the bathroom door. He peeked, making sure no one was there. Sure enough, Qu Xuanzi is not around.
Xie Ruo rejoiced and instantly dashed and flopped onto the bed. The bodo period with Long Long and the Thunder Spirit is still cornered for being punished.
"Ah, I'm so tired ...." Xie Ruo rolled over on the bed and then rolled to the left side, then he closed his eyes. Not for a minute, he was asleep.
Qu Xuanzi came shortly after Xie Ruo fell asleep. Previously, he had come out to change clothes because Xie Ruo had taken too long in the restroom.
He approached the woman, watching her sleep. Today was indeed tiring, plus I don't know what made Xie Ruo lethargic since returning from the entanglement of his own grandmother and relatives. Not to mention the ravings of the Goddess of Life.
Realizing that Xie Ruo was not using a blanket, he could only chuckle. This woman was always careless at times.
With thin clothes and no blankets, what if he was released? Qu Xuanzi pulled the blanket over Xie Ruo's body, but he stopped for a moment.
Isn't it not necessary as before? They were already husband and wife, he did not need to hold back anymore like before. That's a fact.
But, looking at the sleeping Xie Ruo, it was better to just delay. He did not want to wake Xie Ruo up.
He gave a brief kiss on the forehead, then intended to go to Xie Ruo's side to sleep. But just as he was thinking about it, he saw Xie Ruo's eyes opened wide.
Their gazes met for a while, before Xie Ruo finally muttered something vague. It looks like the woman swore in western language.
"I didn't know you'd wake up that easy."
Xie Ruo pensively for a while, then spoke. "Yes, I'm dreaming a little."
"Nightmare?"
"Not really." Xie Ruo remembered, his dream was a strange thing when he did a jump off a cliff and ended when he opened his eyes just now. That's why he cursed.
It's weird, it's not bad either. This is called hypnagogic which is common during sleep.
Qu Xuanzi rubbed Xie Ruo's head, then gave a kiss on his lips briefly. "Sleep."
Xie Ruo was silent as Qu Xuanzi went to the bed section by his side. Xie Ruo turned around, their gazes meeting together at a fairly close distance.
"Have you been holding him back since?" Xie Ruo remembered Long Long's words.
Qu Xuanzi smiled. "I won't force you if you're not ready."
Looking like it wasn't Qu Xuanzi's style, Xie Ruo felt a bit strange. But it's not entirely bad.
Because they're married, so it's okay, right?
Xie Ruo brought his face closer, then pressed their lips together and moved according to instinct based on his own initiative. He was indeed not as smart as Qu Xuanzi, but that alone was enough.
Xie Ruo's daring action made Qu Xuanzi somewhat surprised. But he did not completely freeze, and followed the game with more dominance. He pressed Xie Ruo's nape, deepening the kiss until he reversed the position where Xie Ruo was below him.
"I've said before, if you do it first, I won't hold back anymore."
Xie Ruo smiled faintly, then touched Qu Xuanzi's face. "I know."
"In that case, I assume you're willing."
The man took off his upper clothes, causing Xie Ruo's face to be completely red. What did he just see?
Although not the first time but this position ... Xie Ruo did not dare to think about it. Suddenly his entire body was bristling and felt a heat as a breath of air slammed down on his neck.
"Ruoruo, take it easy, I won't hurt you." Qu Xuanzi's voice whispered in his ear.
"Good." Xie Ruo did not know how to react. Suddenly his mind was empty without being able to think clearly.
Her clothing straps were removed, easily removing her nightgown and dropping her from the bed. Her nightgown consisted of only one layer compared to everyday clothes, that was why it was so easy to remove.
Xie Ruo bit his lower lip, holding back all the tactile sensations in his clothesless body. He felt a bit cold, but the heat that whack his body was getting out of control until he moved naturally.
"I'm sorry, if I can't control it." Qu Xuanzi whispered once more.
"Xuanzi .. uh ...."
The wild touch takes them to a different world. The increasing heat adds to the unbridled passion and wildness.
A natural movement based on instinct, dancing based on instinct that creates high passion. When what pure energy requires is achieved, it immediately works in the soul and develops rapidly without realizing it.
That night was a memorable one, both for Xie Ruo and Qu Xuanzi.
