Chapter 108: Well shit... My mother is going to beat me to death...
" Hu Tian... " began BaiShe, trying to interrupt him.
" Martial Brother, I found a new inn, the Virgin Jades. It’s the top of the top, there are beauties everywhere. I thought I could take you there later to celebrate your new title... " continued the young master Hu, imperturbable.
’ But what is this bastard saying in front of Xia Fei? ’ The tension became almost palpable. The beauty of the Xia family, who had recently shared an intense union with BaiShe, felt a sting of bitter jealousy pierce her heart.
"Hum... I do not think this is the right moment, Hu Tian, " cut BaiShe, his voice becoming colder.
" Well, I think I will leave you to discuss your things... if my presence bothers... " launched Xia Fei abruptly. She turned suddenly, her blue hair whipping the air.
" Wait, Elder Xia... " BaiShe tried to hold her back, but she had already walked away with wounded dignity.
BaiShe turned an icy gaze toward his friend. " Brother Tian, do you see all the problems you are causing? "
" What do you mean, brother Bai... Wait!? Oh.... " Hu Tian stopped short, his blue eyes widening as he looked alternately at Xia Fei’s fleeing silhouette and his friend’s impassive face. Finally understanding the situation, he burst into a thunderous laugh and vigorously slapped BaiShe’s shoulder.
" Sorry, sorry! I did not know that my brother’s relationship was so deep with Elder Xia... Hahaha! "
" You speak too loud, Hu Tian, " warned BaiShe, noting that several heads were starting to turn toward them.
" Hahaha! I did not know you had preferences for milfs! " roared Hu Tian, delighted with his discovery.
BaiShe closed his eyes, exhausted by his ally’s stupidity. There was no point in arguing with Hu Tian in this state.
" Anyway, I will leave you. I am going to comfort these beauties... " concluded Hu Tian before walking away with his two companions, letting out new chuckles.
" Yeah, yeah, go ahead, " murmured BaiShe.
He immediately began searching for Xia Fei through the crowd of guests. Thanks to his Third Eye Art, he quickly spotted her Qi signature near an isolated jade pavilion at the edge of the gardens. She was standing with her back turned, her hands clenched on a marble balustrade.
" Master Xia... " he called softly while approaching.
She turned around, her azure eyes shining with anger. " Even your best friend does not know that we are together, BaiShe. Is this how you consider our bond? "
" Hu Tian is a complete idiot, he sees nothing beyond his own pleasure, " replied BaiShe with brutal honesty.
" Tell me the truth... " she demanded, taking a step toward him. Her perfume invaded his senses. " Do you see me as a simple concubine? A mistress you hide so as not to tarnish your reputation as the ideal young master? "
" But what are you saying? You are my wife, I am ready to do anything for you, " affirmed BaiShe, using his most persuasive voice. In reality, his Omega Heart was incapable of feeling this passion, but he knew he could not lose such an asset. Xia Fei was a Supreme Deity, an indispensable pillar of power for his future plans.
" So, what exactly are we? " she asked, her voice breaking slightly. " What do you really want from me? "
BaiShe adjusted his monocle, adopting his most sincere expression. " I do not understand what you are reproaching me for, Xia Fei. We have shared the very essence of our dantians. What more do you want than my commitment? "
Xia Fei took a deep breath, her generous chest rising against the fabric of her robe. She fixed BaiShe with a new determination.
" I want you to choose, BaiShe. I want you to choose between me... and your fiancée, Xue Ming. "
" What!? "
’ Bastard Hu Tian, the next time I see you I am going to break some bones.’
For him, such a choice was logically impossible. How could he let this powerful, beautiful milf from a prestigious immortal lineage slip away when she constituted one of his strongest supports? If he kept the alliance of the Xia and the Xuan, his influence over the upper Realm would be unprecedented.
" I do not want our relationship to remain hidden like a young disciple’s flirt, " insisted Xia Fei. " If you cannot be serious, if you cannot place me above a political alliance with the Nether Dynasty... Then I think we will stop here. "
Meanwhile, at the other end of the terrace, Sun Wukong observed the scene with amusement. He brought a jar of spiritual wine to his lips. He turned toward Xuan Ling, who stood stiffly at his side, her golden eyes fixed on the couple with poorly concealed hatred.
" I feel there is something between them... " he said to Ling’er with a wink.
" Why are you talking to me? And you should mind your own business... " retorted the young woman.
" Oh... I see! " exclaimed Wukong with a coarse laugh. " You are jealous of your brother!? You are really a little pervert~ "
" We do not have the same blood! And who is jealous!? "
Ling’er raised her hand to hit him, but she froze upon seeing Xia Fei and BaiShe having an increasingly animated discussion. Although they were in a secluded corner, the aura of tension emanating from them now attracted the gazes of the entire room. Murmurs began to spread among the disciples and the Elders.
Xia Fei, seeing that BaiShe remained silent, made as if to turn away to leave definitively. But BaiShe seized her arm and violently pulled her toward him.
" Do you think I am afraid of the stares of others? " he murmured. " If I have not done it publicly yet, it is only because I did not want the gossip to make you uncomfortable... "
Xia Fei remained silent, their faces extremely close. She could feel the heat of his breath on her skin...
" Tonight, everyone will know that Elder Xia Fei belongs to the young master Xuan... " he declared.
And there, under the shocked eyes of all the guests, and of Xuan Ling who felt her heart skip a beat, BaiShe sealed his lips to hers.
He kissed her languorously, with a possessiveness that left no room for doubt. The silence that fell over the Xuan gardens was more deafening than any Qi explosion.
