You Still Have to Check My Body After I Eat It
"It should be yours."
Su Yun'er lowered her head, took Ye Qiu's hand, and pressed the Lovesick Heartbreak Red into it.
She rested her head against his chest,
her eyes reddening, her face full of heartache.
However ordinary Su Yun'er might be, she knew... with only one Soul Ring, Ye Qiu was at the very bottom of the Soul Master World.
To obtain such a treasure,
her Xiao Qiu must have suffered terribly out there, and even faced mortal danger.
"Xiao Qiu~"
Su Yun'er said, her voice choking up.
"I only need to be your little woman, your canary..."
"Really, being a Soul Master or anything like that doesn't matter."
"..."
Su Yun'er didn't yet know
that Ye Qiu had already become a Soul Elder.
It was all Ye Qiu's fault, too.
He had only just broken through to level thirty and returned yesterday at noon, but before he could show her his cultivation, he had already served her up on the dining table and feasted on her to his heart's content.
"Sister Yun'er~"
Ye Qiu lowered his eyes to the woman nestled against him, his gaze full of heartache.
"Will you listen to me first?"
"I prepared this Immortal Herb especially for you, and you're the only one who can pick it."
Ye Qiu slowly withdrew his hand, took Su Yun'er by the shoulders, and helped her straighten up. Looking into her reddened eyes, ready to spill tears, he said softly:
"Its name is Lovesick Heartbreak Red. It's a symbol of love between a flower fairy and a mortal man in a legend. That's why its wonders lie not only in its medicinal effects, but also in the extremely special conditions for picking it."
"..."
Tears glistened on Su Yun'er's eyelashes as they fluttered gently, making her look utterly endearing.
Ye Qiu's face was reflected in her glasslike eyes...
"Sister Yun'er, to pick this Immortal Herb, you have to think of your beloved with all your heart and sprinkle your heart's hot blood on its petals."
"If your heart wavers even the slightest bit, you won't be able to pick it, even if you spit out every last drop of blood."
"If it's picked by force, it'll become a worthless weed."
Ye Qiu explained patiently, an apologetic look on his face.
"I'm sorry..."
"I'm not sure I can pick it, but I believe you definitely can, Sister Yun'er!"
"..."
Su Yun'er gazed at Ye Qiu in a daze, her beautiful face faintly flushed, as though she were a little drunk.
Tears welled in her eyes, tears of overwhelming joy.
She had never dared hope to have all of Ye Qiu;
her only wish was for him to know the love she held in her heart.
"Sister Yun'er, everything I said is true."
Ye Qiu spoke with a solemn expression.
"Mm! Xiao Qiu~ I believe you!"
Without asking a single question, Su Yun'er smiled through her tears and nodded firmly.
She held up the Lovesick Heartbreak Red in her hands...
Su Yun'er's tear-bright crystal eyes gazed at Ye Qiu as tenderly as water. With a radiant smile, she said, "Xiao Qiu~ teach me."
"That's great!"
Seeing her reaction, Ye Qiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He really had been afraid that Su Yun'er would refuse to accept it no matter what.
"Sister Yun'er, let me wipe your tears away first."
Ye Qiu spoke softly and immediately reached out.
"Mm~"
Su Yun'er smiled obediently. Watching the young man before her move so gently, she felt as if her heart had been steeped in a jar of honey, sweet through and through.
"..."
"Xiao Qiu~"
Su Yun'er let out a soft cry.
Ye Qiu's kiss landed at the corner of her eye, wiping away the last trace of tears.
His palm gently moved to the center of Su Yun'er's back...
"All done!"
Ye Qiu raised his head and looked at Su Yun'er's flushed cheeks. With a faint smile, he said, "Sister Yun'er, it might hurt a little in a moment. Bear with it."
"Mm, I will."
Su Yun'er nodded and reluctantly shifted her gaze from Ye Qiu's face. Lowering her lovely, crimson face, she looked at the Lovesick Heartbreak Red in her arms.
She would definitely be able to pick this flower!
Su Yun'er was certain.
There was no one else in her world but Xiao Qiu.
Su Yun'er slowly closed her eyes.
No matter how she turned her thoughts over, only one person's image filled her mind: the one who bathed and slept with her, and with whom she would bear and raise children.
"Mm!"
As Ye Qiu's palm suddenly pressed hard against the center of Su Yun'er's back,
Su Yun'er immediately let out a muffled groan. An unhealthy flush rose on her beautiful face, and traces of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth. Her lips parted, and an arrow of blood spurted out.
"Pfft!"
A splash of fresh blood landed on the white petals, which already bore traces of blood.
As Ye Qiu watched, before he could even react, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red silently left the Black Severing Stone. Without so much as a tremble, it fell straight into Su Yun'er's arms.
"!!!"
Ye Qiu couldn't help widening his eyes.
He had known Su Yun'er could pick it, but he had never imagined it would be so easy...
"Xiao Qiu~ I did it!"
Su Yun'er opened her eyes, her slender, jade-like hands holding the flower. A smile appeared on her pretty face, and she immediately looked at Ye Qiu, her gaze a little hazy and full of affection.
As though seeking his approval and praise, she looked at Ye Qiu in delighted surprise and repeated excitedly:
"Xiao Qiu, I did it!"
"I saw, Sister Yun'er."
Ye Qiu's smile was tinged with remorse. He reached out and pulled Su Yun'er tightly into his arms.
At the same time,
Blue Silver Grass grew beside the bed.
Su Yun'er was still enjoying Ye Qiu's tender embrace when she suddenly caught sight of the three purple Soul Rings hanging from the Blue Silver Grass.
When the first purple Soul Ring lit up,
Ye Qiu gently took Su Yun'er by the chin and lifted her face,
then kissed her bloodstained, cherry-red lips.
"Mm~"
Su Yun'er gave a soft moan, slowly closed her eyes, and returned his kiss, losing herself in it.
Both hands reached up to wrap around Ye Qiu's neck,
and her snow-white throat moved as she swallowed his tenderness.
Strangely, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red had attached itself to her delicate body.
A layer of green light covered Ye Qiu's body. It was vitality converted from the surrounding Natural Energy.
First Soul Skill, Endless Life!
Fine strands of vitality flowed from Ye Qiu's body into Su Yun'er's, and the small injury from drawing out her heart's blood gradually healed.
Ye Qiu tenderly licked every last trace of blood from the corner of Su Yun'er's mouth.
"Mmm~"
Ye Qiu released Su Yun'er's pink lips.
But Su Yun'er was overcome with desire. With her arms around his neck, she tried to push Ye Qiu down onto the bed behind him.
It was rare for her to take the initiative so boldly,
but unfortunately, there was still important business to attend to.
"Sister Yun'er~"
Ye Qiu took a deep breath and suppressed the rising urge a little. "Take the Immortal Herb first," he reminded her.
"Xiao Qiu~ can't I eat it later?"
Su Yun'er's cheeks were red, her eyes reddened with embarrassment, her lovely face as blooming as a flower.
"Of course you can, but... after you take the Immortal Herb, Sister Yun'er, I still have to help you check your body."
Ye Qiu smiled flirtatiously and reached out to give Su Yun'er's chest a couple of squeezes.
"Mmm~"
Su Yun'er let out a sweet moan.
Realizing that there was also a step of taking his essence after eating the Immortal Herb, she stopped insisting.
"Mm, I'll do as you say, Xiao Qiu."
Su Yun'er released Ye Qiu, casually straightened her disheveled, slightly open collar, and sat upright. Looking at Ye Qiu, standing tall and erect, she held the flower in her hands and asked shyly in a soft voice:
"Is there anything special I need to do when I eat it?"
