"Tiger, do some investigation of this lady," Qing Shan Rou ordered as his feet stood firmly on the floor.
"My lord, rest assured, I will check the origin of this lady. But, don't waste the great opportunity to engage dual cultivation with her," the tiger beast responded.
Upon hearing the anxious tone of the beast, Qing Shan Rou could not help but laugh slightly.
"I know what to do. You don't need to remind me!" he stated.
"Naturally! I shall take my leave, my lord!" the beast bid its farewell before it vanished along with the darkness.
A long agonizing sigh escaped from the man's lips as soon as he was left alone with the woman in his arms. He closed his eyes and his entire body shivered.
Usually, the head servant of his grand mansion would make arrangements for all his ladies. But, this time, he did not call for anyone to take care of the woman.
He voluntarily placed the woman gently on his bed.
Just as he was about to untangle his arms from their embrace, the woman moved instinctively closer to him. Her arms clasped to his shoulder as if pleading him not to leave her.
A strong scent from the woman made his entire body stopped moving. It was some kind of sweet aroma that made his eyes glanced at the side of the woman's ear.
'Ahh! What a seduction!' Qing Shan Rou mentally groaned. Then, he leaned closer and lick the side of her ear. 'Just a simple taste and nothing more,' he vowed in silence.
But once his tongue made in contact with her skin, a burning sensation overcome his entire body. It was as if he was engulfed with fire!
The stillness of the night covered the entire mansion.
Only the calm sound of the waves from the seashore could be heard around.
But Qing Shan Rou heard nothing but the heavy heartbeat in his chest. It was rapid and... demanding?
"Ohh, heavens!" the man grumbled. Hot air blew past the woman's skin as he uttered his words.
Then, out of a sudden, the woman's eyes pried open revealing not a black iris but one that was dark color green... emerald.
"Hmmnn," she hummed and moved her head to examine the man that was encased in her arms.
"Handsome," she muttered with the most tempting smile a woman could have. Whether it was her way of addressing the man or if she was complimenting his face, it was not clear yet.
Qing Shan Rou's dark golden eyes widened and then they constricted as he felt the woman caressed his face. He felt as though his lips went dry, He suddenly had the urge to drink water.
The woman seemed to not care that he was in a stranger's embrace.
In fact, judging by her expression, it could be seen that she was completely relaxed!
'This is my mansion! Why I am tensed like this and this woman is too carefree!' Qing Shan Rou thought as he tried his best to regain his composure.
"Woman, don't test me or I will devour you right away!" Qing Shan Rou warned her. He was on his limit. But, the woman's hand continued to move as he traced his perfect jawline.
The softness of her palms, the scent coming from her body, the depth of her green eyes gazing intently at him... everything about this woman was making him lost the tiny bit of his remaining sanity.
"Devour?" the woman asked with a lazy tone. Her eyelids fluttered and then her eyes closed. "Where is this place, handsome?" she suddenly asked.
AHH! So this woman had just realized that the place was unfamiliar to her.
"You are in my mansion. Speak, which harem do you belong?" Qing Shan Rou asked. He valued proper procedure... if the woman would tell her where she came from, he planned to talk to her master and negotiate.
His reputation to the entire mainland was known by every lord. He was confident that the woman will be his, in no time.
"I am in your mansion? Which region are you located, handsome?" the woman repeated. Her eyes fluttered and opened once more. This time the green iris had slightly returned to its black color.
"Woman, since you are comfortable laying in my bed, I will not return you to your master. Just tell me which harem do you belong for me to negotiate to own you," Qing Shan Rou demanded. He was straightforward and quickly told the woman of his decision.
"My master? Haha," the softest laughter echoed in the bed-chamber making Qing Shan Rou's last restrain snapped and broken.
Without any warning, he bent his body and closed the woman's hot red lips with his. This lips had been inviting him to take a bite!
The woman was not startled by his action. She gracefully moved her face and gave the man the easy access for invasion.
And soon after, Qing Shan Rou realized that they were both sharing the same intensity of vigor, quenching each other's thirst.
"Dual... cultivate... with me?" Qing Shan Rou asked in between his gasps of air.
"What else is the reason for the two of us in bed if not for dual cultivation?" the woman paused and searched something in his eyes.
Qing Shan Rou was taken aback. So this woman was expecting them to perform the dual cultivation!
"Tell me your master. I won't be able to proceed if I don't know his identity," he cautiously asked. He feared several things...
The woman seemed to have wildness in her eyes! What if this woman was part of lord Yan's harem? What if she purposely came to his territory to destroy his good relationship with the other worlds by sleeping with him?
It would be bad for him if a rumor would spread that he was snatching a woman from another harem. That would be the most degrading thing for his reputation. Hence, he had to make preparation.
There were a lot of things that he made into consideration in just a single breath. But when he met her gaze for the second time, he could not help but kissed her again.
"Tell... me," he mumbled and raised her chin to enjoy looking at her face.
"Feel free to negotiate now," the woman replied. Of course, she was her own master! So, she conveniently guided him to speak to her.
However, the man did not think thoroughly about her response. In his mind, this woman really belonged to another harem.
"Don't be silly!" Qing Shan Rou murmured.
On the other hand, the woman lazily leaned her back to the mattress and stretched her body with no glint of shyness on her face.
Such image of her was a direct invitation for him to proceed.
