3066 Backlash
Xuanyuan Mo Ze flipped the book in his hand, his deep eyes gazed at her with a glimmer of adoration, and his low voice was seductive. “If I don’t leave seclusion, who will be warming your bed now?”
“I just returned today. I asked Leng Hua and the others, but they said that you hadn’t left seclusion yet.” She smiled as she moved closer to him, removed her coat and boots, and jumped into his arms.
“You smell of wine.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze remarked, but then he closed the book, laid it down, and put his arm around her waist.
“I didn’t smell all that bad since I had only a tiny amount of wine.”
!!
She smiled, raised her head, and slid across the quilt to lie against his chest. “Why don’t you meet everyone when you get out of seclusion?”
“It’s just too much trouble,” said Xuanyuan Mo Ze. In his opinion, people who had nothing to do with him were a nuisance.
“I brought a man and a woman back with me. The man is Wanyan s.h.i.+san, my sworn sister’s thirteenth uncle, and the woman is Qin Xin. I saved her.” She rubbed herself in his arms like a kitten and said, “I brought you two little creatures from this trip. Have a look.”
With a flick of her sleeve, two tigers emerged from the s.p.a.ce and squatted in front of the bed. When the two beasts saw the two of them lying on the bed together, they became shy.
“Master, you’re in the wrong position. It should be the man on top and the woman below, not the other way around.” The male tiger kindly reminded her.
When Feng Jiu heard this, a few black lines popped up on her forehead, but Xuanyuan Mo Ze just smiled. He gave the male tiger a glance and said, “We like this position.”
This made Feng Jiu feel embarra.s.sed. Was it really a good idea to discuss this in front of two tiger beasts?
She coughed gently and told Xuanyuan Mo Ze, “These two tigers have reached the level of sacred beasts. I think you said last time that it would be better to get two powerful ones to guard the manor’s front gate. So when I saw these two tigers, I thought they were perfect and brought them back.”
“Mm, they’re pretty good.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze nodded. With a glance at the two tiger beasts, he said, “What are you looking at? Go stand guard at the manor’s gate. You are now in charge of guarding the Feng Manor’s Gate.”
The two tigers clearly felt pressure so strong that they trembled down on them as soon as the words were spoken, and they then left the room and headed for the gate.
“Ah Jiu, I miss you.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze leaned in close and kissed her moist lips.
When Feng Jiu heard this, she laughed, wrapped her arms around his neck, and enthusiastically returned his kiss…
Xuanyuan Mo Ze let go of her only when she was panting for air. He took a deep breath and extinguished the flames that had welled up inside him. Just as he was about to say something, Feng Jiu abruptly sprung away from his body.
“Are your tendons and veins injured?”
Feng Jiu’s expression changed and she immediately took his pulse. She had a vague impression that his breath was different just now, but she did not expect his muscles and veins to be hurt.
Seeing her anxiety, Xuanyuan Mo Ze comforted her, “Don’t worry, I was just about to tell you this.”
“Did you receive a backlash while cultivating?” She had a solemn expression on her face as she looked at him. Only rare medicinal pills would be able to restore his condition if his veins were injured at his cultivation level.
