Chapter 98: I Want It Anyway, Will You Give It?

T/N: Again, minor nsfw.

Lin Feng grinned wryly. Last night, he'd accidentally been "devoured" by Qian Renxue. Did he really have to go another round tonight…?

Their previous encounters had always been restrained, but perhaps Qian Renxue had truly dosed the aphrodisiac too heavily last night. Or maybe her temptation had simply been too overwhelming.

After awakening their martial souls, soul masters developed rapidly. For Lin Feng and Qian Renxue, who had consumed immortal herbs and nourished their spirit veins, this growth was even more pronounced. They had long since matured fully—especially recently, when Lin Feng found it harder and harder to suppress his impulses.

Though it might have been a bit early, neither Lin Feng nor Qian Renxue had any regrets. Everything had flowed naturally.

Rubbing his sore lower back from last night's frenzy, Lin Feng met Ling Yuan's scorching gaze and raised an eyebrow:

"So now, Sister Ling Yuan isn't afraid of Xiao Xue anymore?"

Ling Yuan's delicate hand brushed across Lin Feng's chest as she chuckled softly.

"I never broke our agreement. Before Xiao Xue made her move, I never overstepped. Do you know how long I've held back, Xiao Feng?"

She rested her head on Lin Feng's shoulder and whispered:

"I want it anyway. Will you give it to me?"

Lin Feng's mouth twitched.

"I just woke up…"

Ling Yuan pouted playfully.

"So what if you just woke up? I'm more worried you can't get up—that'd be a real problem."

"Is that line also from Mother Ye's Guide?"

Ling Yuan's cheeks flushed crimson. "How do you always know…?"

Lin Feng pressed his lips together and glanced back at the room he shared with Qian Renxue.

Click—

The door he'd left slightly ajar suddenly shut firmly from the inside.

The message seemed clear enough.

Lin Feng turned back and met a pair of beautiful eyes gleaming like a wolf's.

Ling Yuan couldn't suppress her wildly curling smile. A sly grin spread across her face:

"Well? The 'head wife' has spoken?"

"Hmph! You two are utterly audacious! Seems I need to teach you the rules of this household!"

Lin Feng swept Ling Yuan up into his arms and carried her into another room.

As dawn's first light filtered in, Lin Feng lay on the bed, lost in thought.

It was a strange feeling—his mind was utterly clear, free of worries or turbulent emotions. It felt pristine, like a blank sheet of paper.

Though not as wild as Qian Renxue's passion, Ling Yuan had been equally fiery, yet tender as water. She'd enveloped him like the finest hot spring, soothing his exhaustion like smooth, luxurious silk.

This is the advantage of an older sister—she knows how to cherish you.

Ling Yuan propped herself up beside him, wincing slightly as she adjusted her jade-like legs.

"Hmm… Lady Ye's Guide seems to have gotten it wrong. It wasn't uncomfortable at all. In fact, it felt wonderful later on…"

Lin Feng's expression darkened. He pulled Ling Yuan against his chest:

"I suddenly think you should stop reading that damned book. Can we throw it away?"

Ling Yuan blinked innocently:

"I already did."

Lin Feng stared at her:

"Then you…"

Her lips—soft and dewy as freshly peeled lychee—pressed against his, greedily stealing a taste of sweetness.

"It's all memorized. I'll just test the 'errors' myself through practice. We have plenty of time, giggle~"

"For example?"

"Mmm… Like the duration and frequency were very different from the book. Much, much higher."

Poor Master Ye…

Ling Yuan casually tossed aside the covers, her stunning figure exposed to the air.

"Let's go. We should head out. I made you wait until afternoon yesterday—I wouldn't dare make Xiao Xue wait that long. Our 'head wife' might get angry, ha~"

Seeing Ling Yuan walk with a slight limp, Lin Feng couldn't help but suggest:

"Maybe you should rest here a bit longer?"

Ling Yuan carefully folded the white cloth dotted with red plum blossoms and stored it in her soul storage device, shaking her head gently.

"It's fine. A Title Douluo isn't as fragile as you think."

Noticing Lin Feng's teasing look, she shot him a reproachful glare.

"Last night was an exception! We'll battle another day! Hmph~"

She strode to the door. As the soundproofing barrier dissipated, they saw Qian Renxue already seated in the living room, sipping tea calmly.

Seeing them emerge, Qian Renxue set down her half-finished cup.

Ling Yuan smoothly took it, refilled it, and placed it back on the side table beside Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue took another sip, amusement dancing in her eyes:

"Sister Ling Yuan, why not rest a little longer?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Sister Ling Yuan isn't ready for more little phoenixes yet. We didn't fight until dawn."

Qian Renxue arched an eyebrow:

"Xiao Feng, do you have complaints about me? Should we… take a break for a few months?"

Once you've tasted the marrow, can you really resist coming back for more? With your personality, you'll be the one seeking me out. Lin Feng mused internally, coughing lightly.

"I think… that's up to you."

"Hmph!"

Qian Renxue stood up, her legs still trembling faintly. She shot Lin Feng a flustered glare, then pulled Ling Yuan into their room, ignoring him completely.

Seeing they needed to talk, Lin Feng didn't follow. He tapped lightly on the door:

"What would you like to eat? I'll cook."

"Grilled fish!"

Grilled fish… indoors? Seriously?

"Okay."

That evening, as Lin Feng escorted Qian Renxue and Ling Yuan downstairs from the hotel, the front desk clerk gave him a thumbs-up.

Two days and two nights! This guest is a legend! Steel kidneys!

Lin Feng shot the clerk an annoyed look and tossed down another gold soul coin.

"Extend the stay."

Watching the trio walk out, the clerk's jaw dropped.

"They're going again? No rest? Damn…"

He stared enviously at their retreating figures, grumbling inwardly:

Why won't my wife let me take a second one? Look at them—they get along so well. Judging by those women's demeanor, they just experienced their first times… How I envy that guest.

Later on while making grilled fish indoors:

Qian Renxue and Ling Yuan each linked an arm with Lin Feng's, their softness pressing tightly against him.

"Where to next?"

Lin Feng paused, recalling the map in his mind:

"Do you still want to head further north?"

Qian Renxue tilted her head:

"We could… but they say the Extreme North is desolate, with stronger soul beasts. If we go, there might not be much to see."

Lin Feng stroked his chin:

"Not necessarily. Seeing more types of soul beasts could be worthwhile. I hear they're very different from those in the Star Dou Forest."

Where was that place buried with the Ice Essence again? Lin Feng couldn't quite remember. He'd thought if they could find the spot where Huo Yuhao discovered the Ice Essence, they might get another power boost…

Huh?

Lin Feng suddenly froze.

Thinking about it now, that Child of Fate was basically cheating his whole life! A million-year soul ring to start? Three martial souls! A demiplane! That overpowered Eye of Fate! Seven soul spirits! Ridiculous soul ring configurations! Ultimate Yin-Yang Complementary Triple Soul Cores!

Damn—his power was suppressed again! Even after inheriting a godhood, his strength was artificially capped. How could a Huo Yuhao who grew up like this possibly lose to Tang San?

Lin Feng shook his head. With constant version updates and Tang San getting buffed nonstop… If you can't handle losing, don't play the game! Endless patches—utterly shameless.
