Night of Power and Passion
The crackling fire illuminated the stillness of the night as Xiao Feng leaned against the large tree, his sharp silver eyes fixed on Su Mei. Her story, though tragic, had stirred something within him—not pity, but excitement at the prospect of conflict and carnage. The thought of facing the Black Tortoise Sect, crushing them under his feet, made his blood hum with anticipation.
But as the night dragged on, boredom crept in again. The forest, for all its vastness, offered little more than rustling leaves and distant howls. Xiao Feng's gaze shifted to Su Mei, who sat quietly across the fire, her face still tinged with sorrow.
An idea crossed his mind. A devilish smirk tugged at his lips as he rose to his feet and stepped toward her.
The Proposal
"Su Mei," he called, his tone casual yet commanding.
She looked up, her violet eyes filled with confusion. "What is it?"
"Get naked," he said plainly, his smirk widening as he saw her expression twist into a mix of shock and anger.
"What are you saying?!" she snapped, rising to her feet. "Have you gone mad?"
Xiao Feng shrugged, completely unfazed. "I said, get naked. I want to fuck you."
Her cheeks flushed with both embarrassment and fury. "You… How dare you say something like that!"
He raised a hand, silencing her protest. "Listen carefully. My dual cultivation technique doesn't just benefit me—it increases both my and my partner's power, including their cultivation potential. And as far as I know, you're not strong enough to get your revenge on the Black Tortoise Sect. Am I wrong?"
Su Mei's breath hitched. His words cut deep because she knew they were true. Despite the power boost from their first encounter, she was still far too weak to face her enemies. But trusting him, especially after what had already happened, wasn't easy.
"I…" she hesitated, her fists clenched. "How can I trust you? What if you're just using me?"
Xiao Feng chuckled, stepping closer until he was mere inches from her. His piercing gaze locked onto hers. "You don't have to trust me. But deep down, you already know this is the fastest way to grow stronger. Besides…" His voice dropped, teasing. "It's not like you didn't enjoy it last time."
Her face turned crimson, her heart pounding. She wanted to deny it, but there was no escaping the faint pull she felt toward him. A part of her, buried beneath her grief and anger, was undeniably drawn to him.
After a long pause, she looked away, her voice barely above a whisper. "Fine… But don't you dare take this lightly."
The Ritual
Xiao Feng's smirk widened as Su Mei hesitantly began to remove her robes, her movements slow and deliberate. Her fair skin glowed in the firelight, her slender figure trembling slightly under his intense gaze.
"Good," he said, his voice low and smooth. "Now, let's begin."
They moved closer, their bodies intertwining as Xiao Feng guided her through the process. Unlike their first encounter, Su Mei was no longer unconscious but fully aware and involved. The intensity of their dual cultivation sent surges of energy coursing through their bodies, far more potent than before.
A Surge of Power
As they reached the peak of their connection, Xiao Feng felt an overwhelming surge of energy flood his veins. His body hummed with newfound strength, and the surrounding qi was drawn to them in a swirling vortex of light and dark.
His mind raced as a system notification appeared:
[System Notification: Dual Cultivation successful. Partner's full cooperation and enjoyment have enhanced the results. Host's cultivation increasing.]
Xiao Feng smirked, glancing at Su Mei, who lay breathless beside him, her cheeks flushed. "You enjoyed that more than the first time, didn't you?"
She blushed furiously, turning her head away. "Shut up, idiot! You're the first person I've ever…" She trailed off, too embarrassed to finish her sentence.
Xiao Feng laughed, clearly amused. "Oh? So I'm your first. Not bad."
Su Mei's response was a light punch to his chest, her eyes narrowing in mock anger. "Stop teasing me, or I'll make you regret it."
Aftermath
Once the ritual was complete, Xiao Feng leaned back against the tree, Su Mei resting on his right side. Her head was nestled against his chest, one hand lightly draped over him as she drifted off into a peaceful slumber.
He opened the system interface, curious about the effects of their cultivation.
[Host's Cultivation: Origin Realm, third stage.]
He smiled, satisfied with his progress. Then, he tried to check Su Mei's cultivation level, but another notification appeared:
[System Notification: Partner's cultivation level is higher than the host's. Unable to view details.]
Xiao Feng's smile faltered for a moment before he sighed. "Well, I'll just ask her when she wakes up."
He closed the interface and glanced down at Su Mei. She looked serene, her earlier pain and sorrow momentarily forgotten. As the fire crackled softly and the night stretched on, Xiao Feng's mind turned toward the future.
"Stronger cultivation, stronger enemies… This world is finally starting to get interesting."
With a faint smile on his lips, he closed his eyes, ready to face whatever awaited him in the days to come.
