Kissing Sheila back, Felix very gently pried her soft lips open and pushed his tongue inside her mouth.
With both of their tongues entwining inside Sheila's small mouth, Felix couldn't be blamed for his breathing turning harder and his hands squeezing her ass tighter. At the same time, once Felix began feeling the taste of Sheila's fragrant tongue he started trying to undress her.
Breaking the kiss and greedily sucking on Sheila's jade-like smooth neck, Felix suddenly stopped himself after turning a little rational.
This was also when the blushing Sheila realised how she didn't show any resistance and almost got ready to have sex with Felix despite needing to preserve her virginity till the day of their marriage.
Luckily, Felix stopped himself at the right time due.
Seeing this, Sheila who recovered after her emotions calmed down kissed the awkward-looking Felix on the cheek and said, "Thank you."
Unfortunately, doing this only made Felix who was already doing everything possible to hold himself back feel more turned on and harder to fight against his desires and not push her down right there.
"You… you should go…."
Speaking in between his heavy breaths, Felix made Sheila throw him a glance full of apology after which she got up and left with her head dropped low.
"I'm sorry… but we can't do it before we marry…"
Explaining herself while clenching her fists, Sheila looked towards Felix who was obviously not happy or pleased with having to hold back but was still doing it for her.
Sending Sheila away, Felix lied inside the hot water for a while longer and left the bathroom himself after his erection finally died down and he no longer felt uncomfortable.
Meeting the fox lady who seemed both embarrassed and sad most likely because she felt that she let him down, Felix smiled and placed his hand on her head.
"Don't look so down, my little fox. I'm not so horny that I can't even wait until we marry."
Nodding her head weakly, Sheila realised that Felix's hand was on her head as if he was consoling a little girl due to which she hastily shook it off and glared towards him with a furious blush.
Seeing this, Felix chuckled and left while resisting the urge to pinch her cheeks which looked so cute and inviting right now.
Continuing to blush for a while, Sheila soon followed Felix with a bright smile while remembering how surprisingly warm and happy she felt when his hand was on her head.
Even though it wasn't big or strong, there was a certain warmth to it which made Sheila crave the same touch again in the future if possible.
What followed next was eating dinner together after which Felix enjoyed a massage longer than usual because Sheila looked as if she wanted to make up for letting him down inside the bathroom.
…
The Sword Draw training was a very slow and long training which could even be considered as quite dull and tedious for Felix who craved excitement in everything he did nowadays.
But even he couldn't ignore how effective the training was. Putting aside how much better his posture and control over the sword was after having slashed the air for almost a few hundred times until now, Felix's speed in slashing the sword had definitely increased by a lot of times.
Even though the difference in speed wouldn't be visible to the naked eyes of many, the truly strong ones could easily notice the difference from when Felix first slashed the sword inside the Gravity Chamber to now after training for two weeks nonstop.
And no one should forget that Felix was under dual suppression of his Gravity Bracelet and the Gravity Chamber. Due to this, Felix's speed in slashing the sword was bound to be even faster when he was outside the room and turned the bracelet off.
"Eight thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven, keep it up, Felix. Don't stop now."
Encouraging Felix in the proper way, Maria who had stopped calling him punk after seeing him never once fail to satisfy her requirement when swinging the sword, sensed something which caused her breathing to turn hard suddenly.
Eyes turning wide in shock, Maria hastily shut off the room's gravity suppression and looked towards Felix with bright eyes and witnessed something which most living beings would not be able to see in their entire lifetime.
Felix's cultivation was breaking through while training!
While such a thing happening in the middle of life and death fighting wasn't too surprising and just something which happened rarely, Maria had never heard of anyone breaking through while swinging their sword around.
After all for someone to break through, they'd need a significant amount of Astral Force to fill their soul to the brink and let their cultivation enter the next level one it did. Therefore, such a thing only happened when someone was in cross-legged cultivation or on the verge of dying when their body was hastily absorbing Astral Energy and turning it into Astral Force in hopes of surviving at all cost.
But breaking through while practising Sword Draw? Such a thing seemed impossible for even Maria who was watching it take place to believe.
This was because for Felix to achieve such a thing meant that he had exhausted his physical body so much that he was breaking through by using the Astral Energy it was absorbing to reduce the strain on it!
And to do such a thing went to show how far Felix was forcing his body due to which Maria couldn't help but look towards him with amazement and a little desire to possess him mixed in it as well.
