Chapter 77

If it were Liu Guang, Cheng Nuo would definitely praise him without hesitation, but facing Bai Rui, he had to restrain himself from becoming a starry-eyed worshipper.

After the two of them had eaten, they completed the rest of the work together. Cheng Nuo put a few fresh-smelling and beautiful-looking plants on the table and arranged the furniture. The cave finally looked like a place for people to live.

But apparently Bai Rui was still very dissatisfied, and said, “Let’s live here for the time being. I’ll see if I can build a tree house.”

Cheng Nuo wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Bai Rui with a smile. He really didn’t expect that Bai Rui, who looked like he was untouched by mundane affairs, was actually so crafty.

Perhaps the tenderness in his eyes showed a little; Bai Rui suddenly leaned over and gave him a kiss on the lips.

Cheng Nuo’s face suddenly became very hot. He hurriedly lowered his head and placed the pieces on the xiangqi board, pretending to be natural and said, “Come on, I’ll teach you how to play xiangqi.”

Bai Rui was very smart. He remembered those rules quickly, and he was very good at learning by example. Cheng Nuo let Bai Rui have a rook the beginning, and after three rounds, Bai Rui let him*. Moreover, Bai Rui killed his pieces in a crisp and merciless way, and Cheng Nuo’s face turned blue after a series of blows.

(* TN: uhhhh this seems to be a bunch of Chinese chess lingo and im honestly not sure how to translate it so I just left it as it was?? Lol sorry.)

Cheng Nuo frowned and desperately tried to remedy it, pulling his hair into a chicken nest. f.u.c.k, with these people, how can ordinary people live ah! Doesn’t Bai Rui have any weaknesses?

When he looked over with resentment, Bai Rui’s fingers had already reached out, straightening his hair very gently. Cheng Nuo calmed down in an instant. Bai Rui was just a little tender gra.s.s, how can he always behave so cutely ah. He was really afraid that he wouldn’t be able to resist pouncing on Bai Rui…

He suddenly felt that his mouth was a little dry, so he quickly drank a gla.s.s of water and suppressed the fire.

When they went to see Tao Mo again, the two went together. Cheng Nuo remembered that Bai Rui could not breathe underwater, and was about to try to make a big oxygen bubble for him. As a result, as soon as Bai Rui stretched out his hand, a violent energy poured out along the palm of his hand, and the lake water seemed to be split from the middle by a huge knife, revealing a pa.s.sage leading to the altar at the bottom of the lake.

Cheng Nuo quickly retracted his hand. Fine; constantly comparing himself to others will just make him angry!

Bai Rui didn’t have any proud expression on his face, but said thoughtfully: “Now that the power has indeed increased, let’s try how long you can manipulate these lakes.”

Cheng Nuo also learned from him with a calm “mn”.

Tao Mo was really happy when he saw the xiangqi set. Cheng Nuo explained the rules of xiangqi to him carefully. Tao Mo nodded again and again and said, “This is fun! More interesting than that wuziqi!”

Cheng Nuo smiled and said, “This chess is played by two people; you can play with Bai Rui. His chess skills are much better than mine.”

Tao Mo was also a smart person. He immediately understood the meaning of his words; he threw out a book and said, “This is the basic method of transformation. Go study it yourself.”

Cheng Nuo glanced at it hastily, smiled and said, “Thank you.”

Bai Rui and Tao Mo set up the chessboard across the barrier. Tao Mo said the positions and Bai Rui helped him put the chess pieces there, while Cheng Nuo sat cross-legged and read the book intently.

According to the prequel of the book, the highest level of those with wood-based abilities is to a.s.similate their bodies into plants at will, and they can even vegetate their bodies at will. Cheng Nuo’s blood was boiling when he saw it. What did this mean?

If the body could sneak into the plants at will, and they couldn’t be found with any tracking ability, how dominant would the combat be? There were plants everywhere, and plant roots were spread over the entire land. In other words, those with wood-based abilities could possess the ability of wood-based abilities to sneak into the soil to obtain information, and they could become combat-type after vegetation.

Of course, to do this, the physical wood energy must reach a certain level.

Cheng Nuo studied it wholeheartedly. The book was old, broken and incomplete, and the font was quite scribbled, but the language was very straightforward and it could be read effortlessly.

After reading it, he began to follow the instructions in the book, closing his eyes and gathering the wood-based energy elements in his body. Sure enough, the speed was much faster than the method he had learned before. Not knowing how long it took, he slowly opened his eyes, only to feel relaxed and comfortable, while the two men were still playing.

Tao Mo showed a rare serious expression, and both of them stared at the chessboard tightly.

Cheng Nuo leaned up and took a look, and found that most of the p.a.w.ns on both sides had been lost, but obviously Bai Rui had the advantage. He was worried that Bai Rui had been manipulating the lake for too long and was tired, so he pulled Bai Rui’s sleeve and said, “The last game.”

Bai Rui turned his head and glanced at him, and soon made a series of killing moves, forcing Tao Mo to admit defeat.

Tao Mo’s expression looked as if he wanted to eat Bai Rui, and he said angrily: “Kid, re-set it again!”

Bai Rui said calmly: “Tomorrow.”

Cheng Nuo also hurriedly handed the book in with both hands and said with a smile: “We’ll be here on time tomorrow.”

On the way back, Cheng Nuo asked Bai Rui curiously about the outcome. Bai Rui said, “Except for the first three rounds, I won 20 rounds and he won 19 rounds.”

“…” Was Tao Mo so excited? He quickly asked Bai Rui about the seal array.

Bai Rui hadn’t deliberately learned about the array. He frowned and said, “I took a look, there wasn’t the slightest hint.”

Cheng Nuo also expected such a result, so he could only hide his disappointment in his heart and smile at Bai Rui: “Well, there will always be a way.”

After nearly half a year, Cheng Nuo’s cultivation had successfully reached the second stage, and the two men had become great chess players, playing several games every day.

Tao Mo often stared at the chess game while answering Cheng Nuo’s questions impatiently. Bai Rui would often look at Cheng Nuo after landing a piece.

Cheng Nuo cultivated very hard, forgetting to eat and sleep, and Bai Rui would accompany him to practice physical cultivation every day. After a day, he was often tired and fell asleep. The relationship between the two had slightly returned to the way the way it used to be in Qinghua Sect. At most, they just kissed and hugged to sleep.

He was actually quite satisfied with the present, Bai Rui’s desires seemed to be very indifferent, and he had not taken the initiative to mention helping each other or something. Fortunately, Bai Rui didn’t ask any more questions. He always felt a little repulsive about it, and Bai Rui was too young.

Less than sixteen years old, he was a junior high school student in modern times! It was a sin to think about it!

On this day, Cheng Nuo took a shower and sat lazily on the bed wearing only a robe, and asked Bai Rui to dry his hair.

Bai Rui was very careful, drying his hair a little with a soft cloth, and then suddenly licked the back of his neck ambiguously.

Cheng Nuo shuddered as if he had been electrocuted, his face suddenly became hot, and he quickly turned around and said, “It’s itchy…”

Bai Rui knelt on both sides of him with his legs, pressed him on the bed and whispered, “You said you’d think about it… have you thought about it now?”

Cheng Nuo looked at the golden eyes with long eyelashes close to him. His head was in a daze, and he said incoherently: “You are too young. Doing this kind of thing is not good for your health. If you want to, I will use my hands for you, okay…?”

Oh, he still remembered it after so long! Although he also didn’t forget…

In fact, he sometimes found it strange, due to his tiredness, that Bai Rui was quite scary when he was in estrus, but there was usually little response. He also guessed that the ancient Bingli people could only harden during estrus…

Bai Rui smiled, suddenly leaned down and pulled open his neckline, licking at his collarbone with his soft tongue, then slowly moved down, holding his chest and biting lightly. Cheng Nuo was shocked and almost cried out.

He lowered his head in a panic and said hurriedly, “Don’t do this…”

Bai Rui didn’t stop and licked slowly a few more times. His usually cold face was a bit seductive at this time, and the female’s sweet voice also brought the dark hoa.r.s.eness of desire: “I’ve been waiting for a long time, I want you…”

As he said, his flexible tongue slowly shifted to the other side and licked it, and the spot that had been licked was obviously swollen, with a moist and ambiguous glow.

The visual effects and sensory stimuli were so strong that Cheng Nuo became silly. His face flushed before he knew it, and he pushed softly and said incoherently: “No, I’m not ready…”

Oh, my G.o.d, who did Bai Rui learn these flirting methods from!

Brother, if you want to become an animal, you will really become an animal!

Laozi’s self-control is really not good at all!

Bai Rui really stopped, pulling open the neckline of his own shirt like slow motion, revealing two perfectly shaped clavicles and a bit of jade-white pectoral muscles, and then slowly tidying up the long silver hair scattered on his chest behind his ears.

He panted slightly, his sweet red lips slightly open, revealing a bit of jade-white teeth, and his golden eyes were also foggy, looking at Cheng Nuo unblinkingly.

Cheng Nuo licked his lips with difficulty, his mouth dry, and his eyes couldn’t move away. He suddenly realized that his eyes had been glued to Bai Rui for a long time, and he quickly lowered his eyes in embarra.s.sment.

Bai Rui was not seducing him, was he? Too abnormal, too abnormal…

Bai Rui didn’t give him time to think about it, and whispered softly to his lips: “Don’t you want to?”

Cheng Nuo could clearly feel the other party’s hot breath, and Bai Rui’s soft and rosy lips also touched his mouth seemingly endlessly. He was so thirsty that he wanted to get close to him. He knew how wonderful the taste of those lips was…

He panted sharply, his head completely dizzy, and he said the lines that would make him want to dig a hole and bury himself afterwards: “It will hurt, and with two, I’m a little scared…”

Bai Rui’s eyes were deep, he gently sucked Cheng Nuo’s lips, tracing his lip line carefully, and his voice was gentle as if whispering: “It won’t hurt, I won’t go all in, I promise.”

His hand then slid inside Cheng Nuo’s lapels, slowly wandering along the sensitive waist and abdomen. He liked the firm and delicate skin.

Although desire was not the most important thing to him, he wanted Cheng Nuo and wanted to put his scent on him, for certain. After half a year, Cheng Nuo should love him a little more, right?

Cheng Nuo’s chest fluctuated sharply as if he was drowning, and he was completely tempted by Bai Rui, forgetting everything.

Bai Rui’s tongue finally slipped into his mouth. Cheng Nuo closed his eyes, and his tongue couldn’t wait to greet him, sucking fiercely, the thirst in his throat slightly relieved.

He hugged Bai Rui vigorously, and wrapped his legs around Bai Rui’s waist, trying to get that slightly cool body closer to his own so that his body’s heat could go down.

Something will really happen, something will really happen…
