Chapter 123 - Before Battle

Huo Lei led me to the special bath she had made for us. She wasn't worried about how I looked until she saw the numerous bruises covering my naked body. "I should have been more reserved earlier. I hadn't realized you were so badly hurt." Huo Lei said worried about me.

"It's fine, these will heal. I was excited to see you too. Besides it was I who temporarily Dissolved the link between us out of fear for your safety. So it is my fault." I said, caressing her cheek, and smiling.

"I have a plan to help heal those wounds of yours faster." Huo Lei said, peeking her head out of the room and whispering something. A short moment later she pulled a cart in with a meal for two. "Now let's have a night together. Your wife will make those wounds go away." Huo Lei said, dropping her dress and walking towards me.

"You're beautiful Huo Lei. Why don't we make it a few nights?" I smiled, enjoying the sight and the experience.

"Is that so? Then I'm going to enjoy this…" Huo Lei said, flashing her eyes and rubbing her hands along her curves. She was enjoying teasing me right now and I could tell.

~~3 Days later~~

I woke up and started to pull out my spare outfit as my previous one… well it got quite… uh destroyed. "All I have left is my spare Purple Phoenix Disciple outfit. I really need to get a new one along with a few sets of them as well. Eh I guess it can wait for now. It's not like I need anything while I'm alone with Huo Lei." I said, gently brushing Huo Lei's hair to the side. I took a moment to look around my room and thought of everything that happened to get to this point.

"Today is the day you go and fight the 'Evil Shadow Sect' isn't that right?" Huo Lei asked, rolling over to lay her naked body atop mine. "If husband is going into battle he should wear a glorious outfit should he not?" Huo Lei said, and out of her space ring came a stand holding three specially made outfits.

"Those… are for me?" I asked, looking at the designs and finding each one appealing.

"I was going to save them for a birthday. But with Husbands clothes… it would be difficult to wear that in public." Huo Lei said, kissing me and sliding me inside her for another round. "There is still time so I'm going to use it." She added.

~~Several moments later~~

I got up and dressed myself while Huo Lei watched happily waiting for my opinion on the matter. She was this way until I finished getting dressed. "What does the husband think of it?" Huo Lei asked with a smile.

"I love it. You've out done yourself." I said, examining myself. I wore a Brilliant blue hanfu with silver trim in the form of Lightning Bolts. Upon my back was the image of a Dragon mid Roar. With a similar form albeit smaller on the front of my belly tie.

"I'm glad you like it husband, I asked the Refiners here in the village to make these for you. Please take them and tell me of any problems. Aside from that you look so sexy in that outfit I want to go again." Huo Lei said, clapping her hands together.

I reached out, laying her down on the bed. The silky sheets behind her only magnified her beauty. "As much as I want to stay and make love with you day and night for countless days. I must go and rid this world of the 'Evil Shadow Sect' Once and for all. Right now there are many other families out there who are saying the same things to their wives, husbands, brothers, sisters, and children. It would be far too selfish of me to stay here and indulge. I am a powerful cultivator of the 3rd Order Origin King Realm. Mother Feng, and Mother Bai had tested me rigorously before giving me their seal of approval to come and fight this evil. I will not back down now. Please understand, I will come back not only alive but in one piece." I said, kissing Huo Lei with a deep seated passion to let her know I feel about her on a physical level. Even if only for reassurance.

"But… it's dangerous isn't it? Even for you." Huo Lei muttered with a tear forming in the corner of her eye.

"It is, but remember what I am about to say. I am a 3rd Order Origin King with a perfect Origin Essence Crystal. I am also a 12th Rank Dragon Race. The enemy that could kill me… how many could there be in this Void World? Besides…" I said, then whispered something in Huo Lei's ear.

"After saying something like that you better come back! Don't keep me waiting too long alright. And when you get back I'm going to check that body of yours all over. So don't you dare get injured. Or I'll ask Mother-in-laws to do something." Huo Lei said, turning her head to the side.

"Eh… Alright. I promise to come back safely. Now won't you send me off with a smile?" I said, squeezing her left breast gently teasing her.

"Have a safe trip, happy hunting and kill the enemy. This wife of yours will keep you in her heart." Huo Lei smiled.

"I love you." I kissed her one last time before I would see her again.

~~Outside~~

I walked outside and turned into a giant bolt of lightning disappearing after a single brilliant flash of light.

"A dragon flies to exact vengeance and quell the rage in his heart." Huo Dai said, looking up in the direction I had just flew in.

"Good luck, Young Master! Danger be on the enemies side and Fortune on yours." The Villagers cheered all half wishing they were even half as strong as I was before I left with Huo Lei.

"Mother! I… I." Huo Lei came outside dressed but really wanting her mother right now.

"Don't worry Lei'er, Young Master is powerful and you confirmed it yourself. He is a 12th Rank Dragon. I'm sure if he has any trouble it will be resolved with nothing more than a few scratches." Huo Dai said holding Huo Lei close to comfort her with a mothers hug.
