Baby Xue'er

Twelve Moon Season emitted a seven-colored glow as its black petals began to fade.

Black ash drifted away, and the black petals turned pink.

The pink petals gave off wisps of Soul Power.

When that Soul Power had vanished before, the petals had shown clear signs of withering.

Now that Soul Power was overflowing from them, the petals remained as vivid as ever.

Qian Renxue looked at the flower and liked it immensely.

She said delightedly, "This is too miraculous. The flower is really alive. Little Hao, will it never wither again?"

"Yes, it won't. You can absorb the Soul Power in its petals for the time it takes to burn one incense stick each day. If you absorb too much, the benefits will diminish," Feng Hao said.

"Little Hao, we should use this Twelve Moon Season together. After all, it was raised through the efforts of both of us," Qian Renxue suggested.

"There's no need for me. It's best for one person alone to absorb the Twelve Moon Season. If two people absorb it, the Twelve Moon Season won't be able to choose a master," Feng Hao said seriously.

"It can't choose a master?" Qian Renxue was extremely curious. How could a flower choose its master?

"By absorbing Soul Power through it every day, it will choose you as its master. Once Twelve Moon Season chooses a master, it will attach itself to your body," Feng Hao said solemnly.

"Attach itself to my body?" Qian Renxue was even more curious. This flower was far too strange!

"Yes. It can attach itself anywhere on your body. You can decide where it goes, and you can change its position at any time."

"After it attaches itself to you, besides continuing to provide you with Soul Power every day, it can instantly replenish all your Soul Power once when it has been completely exhausted."

"However, after doing that once, Twelve Moon Season will need a month to recover."

Feng Hao revealed Twelve Moon Season's greatest effect, and Qian Renxue was shocked when she heard it.

Instantly replenishing all one's Soul Power—what did that mean?

Sometimes, it was equivalent to being given an extra life.

When facing an evenly matched opponent, the two of you fought.

Just as both sides ran out of Soul Power, one side suddenly had all their Soul Power restored.

There would be no need to continue fighting. It would instantly become a dead end.

"Little Hao, I think this treasure suits you better. Once your Martial Soul and Soul Rings are exposed, your enemies will definitely try to kill you. Although I'm not as strong as you, I have the elders of Spirit Hall protecting me, as well as the treasures of Spirit Hall."

Having made her decision, Qian Renxue handed Twelve Moon Season to Feng Hao.

But how could Feng Hao accept it?

He placed Twelve Moon Season back in Qian Renxue's hand and said seriously, "Sister Xue'er, I can tell you with absolute certainty that the strength I displayed today was only part of what I possess. I won't be in any danger, so keep it."

Feng Hao had not used his domain today. If he unleashed it, his strength would rise again.

Moreover, he had yet to use his second Martial Soul.

Although his second Martial Soul and first Martial Soul shared his current Soul Power,

the combination of the two Martial Souls' soul skills would produce even greater power.

And if he truly encountered an opponent he could not fight,

he could still use the first soul skill of the Taiji Diagram to escape, unless his opponent could kill him in a single blow.

Otherwise, no one could truly stop him from escaping.

"Little Hao still has hidden abilities? Little Hao, I truly can't see through you. I won't ask how you obtained those Soul Rings. I only hope that, whatever you do outside, you'll be careful. Remember, I'll always be waiting for you to come see me," Qian Renxue said lovingly as she held his hand.

Qian Renxue knew that it would be difficult for her to keep Feng Hao by her side forever.

What she was doing now also made that impossible.

She only hoped Feng Hao would remain safe and sound and visit her often.

Once Spirit Hall's affairs were settled in the future, she would stop caring about everything else. Wherever Feng Hao went, she would go too.

"I'll be careful. Once I'm strong enough, I'll help you resolve your current problems. Then we can always be together."

Feng Hao made his promise, then gently picked Qian Renxue up and carried her toward the bed.

"Little Hao, wait for me," she said shyly.

"Huh? What are you doing, Sister Xue'er?"

"Just turn around."

"Oh!"

He roughly guessed what it was and turned around at once.

This time, he truly did not peek.

After all, he could take his time looking later, looking over every inch.

"All right!"

Qian Renxue's voice came from behind him, and Feng Hao turned around.

The instant he turned back, Feng Hao became somewhat excited.

He murmured, "Sister Xue'er, what have I done to deserve meeting a fairy like you, and even earning your favor?"

"Don't say nonsense. Little Hao, you're the strongest person I've ever met. You'll become a legend among Soul Masters, a legend of this continent," Qian Renxue said.

"I won't disappoint you, Sister Xue'er," Feng Hao said firmly.

"Do you like it?" she asked playfully.

The moment Feng Hao had turned around, she had changed clothes.

She had put on the outfit she had worn for Feng Hao before, and she had also removed her disguise.

Her hair fell softly over both sides of her shoulders, slightly disheveled. Yet at this moment, it carried even more temptation.

"I like it. I like it more than anything. I wish time could stop so I could stay with you forever and never leave this little room," Feng Hao said gently, almost word by word.

"Be gentle with me," Qian Renxue said softly.

She understood that there was no turning back today.

And she had never intended to turn back.

"Mm." Feng Hao nodded. Then he gently kissed her as he slowly loosened her robes.

Their first taste of passion,

even with Qian Renxue's formidable strength,

even with her powerful Martial Soul,

she could not withstand Feng Hao.

Beneath Feng Hao's tender words,

and his storm-like advances,

Qian Renxue's entire body went limp.

She felt as though she were in a dream, knowing only that she could never leave Feng Hao again.

The next day.

Feng Hao gently kissed her forehead, and Qian Renxue opened her eyes as well.

"Baby Xue'er, good morning!"

"Good morning!"

A chapter of over two thousand words had to be cut down to just over seventeen hundred before it passed. From now on, I can only keep things tasteful. I hope everyone understands. (╥_╥)
