Chapter 47: "Young Master, Do My Lips Taste Sweet?"
Just as Xiao Tian walked out of Master Yan's place, he ran into Zi Yue. Seeing Xiao Tian, a smile appeared on Zi Yue's usually icy face. This sight stunned the surrounding symbolists. They had never seen Zi Yue smile at anyone before.
The young male symbolists felt particularly heartbroken, as Zi Yue had always been the unattainable goddess in their eyes. Now, seeing her smiling and running up to Xiao Tian, holding his arm, they were filled with a sense of realization: the goddess who is unattainable to you might be very approachable to someone else.
Zi Yue, with a smile, walked up quickly and took Xiao Tian's arm, and the two of them left together. The onlookers were filled with pain, but none dared to say anything. After all, Xiao Tian was a Creation Realm expert.
After leaving the Symbolist Association, Zi Yue's smile faded, and she looked at Xiao Tian with a hint of sadness. "Young Master Xiao Tian, why did you leave without saying goodbye last time?"
Feeling the softness on his arm, Xiao Tian swallowed and said, "Zi Yue, we've only met once. It seems unnecessary for me to tell you where I'm going."
"Even though it was our first meeting, my heart has already flown to you," Zi Yue said, her cheeks blushing, her red lips slightly parted, and her eyes full of tender affection.
Her charm immediately made the atmosphere intimate and ambiguous. Xiao Tian, not one to miss such an opportunity, wrapped his arm around Zi Yue's soft waist and kissed her.
"Mmm..."
At first, Zi Yue was a bit reserved, but since there was no one around, she quickly got into it. She wrapped her arms around Xiao Tian's neck and responded passionately.
After a while, they finally parted. Zi Yue, with eyes like silk, softly asked, "Young Master, do my lips taste sweet?"
"Sweet!" Xiao Tian nodded, "Sweet and unforgettable!"
"This is just one kind of lip balm I bought. I have more than ten different ones for you to taste," Zi Yue said, her fingers gently caressing Xiao Tian's cheek, her breath like orchids. "I've already booked a room at the inn, so you can taste them all."
"In that case, I'll respectfully accept," Xiao Tian said seriously.
...
Time flies when one is having fun. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed, and it was time for the Symbolist Association's Tower Battle. On this day, symbolists from both Yan City and Tianhuo City gathered in front of the Symbolist Tower.
Tianhuo City Symbolist Association's leader, Han Yun, glanced at Master Yan and said, "Yan Xuan, can we start now?"
"We're still waiting for some of our symbolists from Yan City to arrive. Why the rush?" Master Yan responded calmly, though internally he wondered why Xiao Tian and Zi Yue hadn't arrived yet.
"You Yan City symbolists are here in vain. You've lost twice already," Han Yun mocked. "If you lose again this time, the Symbolist Tower will belong to Tianhuo City."
"Hmph! Let's talk about that after you win," Master Yan said with a cold snort, though he placed high hopes on Xiao Tian. Being a third-grade symbolist with a life symbol, Xiao Tian's mental strength was on par with most fourth-grade symbolists. Such talent was rare, and Master Yan doubted Tianhuo City had someone comparable.
"Master Yan, we're not late, are we?" At this moment, Xiao Tian arrived, holding Zi Yue's hand.
Hearing this, Master Yan looked over. Seeing the interlocked fingers of Xiao Tian and Zi Yue and the happiness on Zi Yue's face, he understood their relationship immediately.
"You're not late. The Tower Battle hasn't started yet," Master Yan said with a smile. As Zi Yue's mentor, he considered her like a daughter. Xiao Tian's outstanding talents made him a suitable match for Zi Yue.
Master Yan turned to the symbolists from Tianhuo City and announced, "Everyone, the third Tower Battle between Yan City and Tianhuo City begins today. There aren't many rules; whoever reaches the highest level and lasts the longest wins. I advise everyone to know your limits. If you can't hold on, don't push yourself too hard, or I won't be responsible for any injuries. Also, try to avoid injuring each other in the tower."
"In a competition, injuries are normal," Han Yun said indifferently, clearly not agreeing with Master Yan's caution. Having won twice already, he believed Master Yan's words were just to protect his disciples.
"You'll regret it if you don't listen," Master Yan said calmly, leading three middle-aged symbolists to the tower's entrance. The crowd stepped back, eyes filled with anticipation, watching the gray Symbolist Tower.
The Symbolist Tower had the power to purify, and every symbolist hoped to enter it. However, even members of the Yan City Symbolist Association had few opportunities to enter each year.
"Buzz!"
Strong spiritual waves emanated from Master Yan and the other three, causing them to float in the air.
"Open, Symbolist Tower!" Master Yan commanded, controlling the spiritual power to form a light seal that imprinted onto the stone door's groove.
"Rumble!"
The tower trembled, and the stone door opened. A powerful spiritual wave spread out, making everyone feel a heavy pressure. Those with weaker abilities turned red and retreated awkwardly.
"Enter!" someone shouted, and symbolists from both cities rushed towards the entrance.
"Zhou Tong, Liu Long, you two go as well," Han Yun ordered, glancing at Zi Yue and Xiao Tian. "Only those two from Yan City are worth anything."
