Chapter 33 – A Sleepless Spring Night

“Do you mean you need a shower too?” Looking at the shy young man, An’yue smiled, as her face turned red, “Oh, take your time. Why the hurry? You’ll work in my hotel for the next three months anyway… You know, lots of chores, but mainly washing dishes in the kitchen.“

“Oh! I’m not quite interested in washing the dishes, but I’m curious about this bed of yours. Is it soft enough to let me enjoy a comfortable night? I’ve missed a real bed so much. You know, back in the mountains, I always slept on those stiff branches… Ok, seriously, if you lose this fight, you’ll stick to your promise, right?” Qinghan sincerely looked into An’yue’s eyes, before he peeped through the bead-curtain in front of the bed.

“Hehe, you’re such an interesting young man.” The childish and naïve expression on Qinghan’s face greatly amused An’yue. She chuckled for a short while, causing some violent waves of ups and downs between her breasts.

“Alright, I promise, you’ll be allowed to sleep in my bed if, and only if you can beat me in our agreed upon duel. You know what? I’ll transform you from a boy into a man.” She added, after she stopped laughing.

“That’s awesome. But I have to remind you, as we agreed upon, you’re only allowed to exert half of your strength while fighting!” Qinghan was confident that he would sleep on this large-sized, red bed, which so many guys had tried all their means to get access to, but had ultimately failed.

“Yeah, I won’t go back on my words, because that’s against my nature. Let’s begin now. I hope we won’t pull down my courtyard...“ An’yue tightened her bathrobe, and quickly combed her wet hair with her hands.

“Oh, sorry, I forget to introduce myself. My name is Ye Qinghan and I have a battle beast. Would you mind if I integrate with my beast? Is it against the rules?” Qinghan asked embarrassingly, as he scratched his head.

“No problem. Oh, just recently, I entered into the third level of the Realm of the General. Even if I exert half of my strength, my power would be equivalent to that of someone at the peak level of the Realm of the Commander. So, I don’t think you can win, even with the help of your battle beast. Alright, let me see how powerful the integration will be. Ok?”

An’yue began to exert her Battle Qi, letting it flow throughout her body. Though, as promised, she could only use half of her Battle Qi, as she thought it would be more than enough to defeat Qinghan. Actually, she had already investigated Qinghan’s background and knew that he only possessed a fourth-grade battle beast. Therefore, she didn’t care much about this. On the other hand, she was a firm believer of self-cultivation and any external assistance, such as a battle beast, would be considered by her as unreliable.

However…

The moment she saw the mind-boggling speed of the integrated Qinghan, all of her previous confidence was shattered. Looking at the ghost-like Qinghan, who suddenly appeared in front of her, she was absolutely panic stricken. Her unique, oriental eyes widened in utter unbelief.

Based on her fighting experience, she swiftly slipped sideway. Although An’yue changed into a proper angle and gesture to successfully dodge the attack, her speed dwarfed in front of Qinghan’s. Without any warning, a black dagger already touched her neck…

“You failed! You owe me a sweet night!” Qinghan tossed his head towards An’yue, closed his eyes, and greedily smelled the delicate fragrance emitting from her body.

In fact, Qinghan wasn’t surprised about the result. He knew, once integrated, his power should be equivalent to those in the Realm of the General. Since An’yue had no external help to turn to, and she only exerted half of her Battle Qi, it would be a piece of cake for Qinghan to win this fight. Therefore, he won. So… He boldly stretched out his hands into An’yue’s bathrobe, stroking her straight, velvety legs.

“Wait a minute!”

The press of Qinghan’s hands brought An’yue back to reality from the previous horror scene. She immediately took away his hands, as she was rather confused. Finally she asked, “Your power improved a great deal, just within two months! Did you conceal your power two months ago?”

“Of course not.” Qinghan denied with a solemn expression. However, his shivering tone and his jarred breathing revealed himself. So, he stretched his hands back out, as he continued, “Yeah, two months ago, I was only in the first level of the Realm of the Elite. I’m not fond of cultivation. However, the first sight I saw of you, I was allured by your beauty. Thus I was determined to go to the mountain range to improve my cultivation and win the bet.”

“Oh, you glib-tongued liar…” An’yue threw a distrustful glance at Qinghan, as a faint smile appeared on her face.

Meanwhile, Qinghan’s hands gently worked their way up from her legs until they reached her neck. He softly whispered in her ear, “Hi, beauty, I’ll tell you the truth. My battle beast is not a fourth-grade one. It is much higher than that. Shhh… It’s a top secret!”
