Chapter 1124: Don’t You Dare Turn the Tables on Me
No wonder the water felt so sticky; it turned out to be a swamp mixed with mud.
A gray mist hovered over the entire swamp.
From time to time, bubbles rose from the swamp’s mud, and cobalt blue flames occasionally flickered through the mist.
Especially when immersed in the water, one could feel the coldness penetrating the bones, even piercing through the soul.
Just within inches of falling into it, I could feel a layer of dust covering the heavenly fire inside me, inexplicably dimming it.
The man in the water, clothed in black, was soaking.
Two buttons of his shirt were undone, revealing his cool, pale chest.
After I shouted "Snake Brother," the man’s overwhelming anger melted into tender pity, and he sighed softly, "Sigh, didn’t you promise not to enter the Nether Pond?"
"Did I promise that... really? No way, I still remember you asking me to come in to keep you company, I’m just following your instructions. Don’t you turn around and blame me now." As soon as I said a few words, the gray mist in the air entered my lungs, freezing them like ice, and I began to cough, "Cough, cough, cough..."
The coldness had already exceeded the limits a human could endure, fortunately I had the heavenly fire on me, which still carried some yang energy to resist the cold here.
My body suddenly felt lighter as it moved closer to Yu Longting’s chest.
He held me tightly against his chest, his slightly tense fingers awkwardly stroked my long hair, the tips of his fingers gathered a warm strength that isolated the cold infiltrating my body, "I was just pretending, couldn’t you tell? Why do you have to act recklessly and make me worry about you?"
"I couldn’t tell, alas, Yu Longting, something’s grabbing my foot." In a state of shock, I clung tightly to Yu Longting’s waist.
At first, it felt like a human hand grabbed my ankle, but then I realized there were thousands of tiny hands.
Touching me as I soaked in the water, frozen almost senseless.
Yu Longting’s hoarse, gritted voice was in my ear, "Is it a hand? Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake?"
"There are so many, so many, they seem to be pulling me down, wanting to devour me." I was panic-stricken, clinging to Yu Longting like holding on to the last straw.
Has he been living like this in the water all these days?
On one hand, he stayed in Wuyue’s body to keep me company, and on the other, he had to fight against the terrifying yin creatures in the water that could swallow people, any slight carelessness would lead to eternal doom.
Suddenly, my lips were sealed by his soft, thin, cool lips.
Yu Longting’s hands came over to unbutton the cheongsam one by one, and his kisses, deep and gentle, made my mind dizzy.
Forgetting all the monsters in the water, forgetting that with my cultivation I may not last long.
Would be swallowed by the Netherworld, becoming a part of the Nether Pond.
Half of the cheongsam was slid off, and I slightly regained consciousness, "Hey, what are you doing, even in this situation... still doing this..."
"Did I ever tell you, I wanted to mess with you?" Yu Longting’s fingers, like jade chopsticks, pinched my cheeks, and kissed me even deeper.
I was completely unable to cope, my lungs ran out of oxygen rapidly, "But not this... place, it’s really weird, hey, are you listening to me?"
"Comply with me, cooperate with me so that you won’t be dragged away by grievances, since you’re in, you must bear the necessary consequences." As the man’s voice grew hoarser, my fingers were tightly clasped with his, our fingers interlocked.
No matter how thick-skinned, I couldn’t help my heart pounding, my old face blushing red, "Does this mean... by doing that... the terror of the Nether Pond can be dispelled? That’s too absurd, isn’t it?"
"In the vast world, there are countless things my dear wife you don’t know about."
The flow of water in the mud brushed past my ankle, the piercing sensation significantly diminished.
Above was an endless darkness, and the cries in the mist gradually diminished, including those hands that were touching and dragging me deeper also slowly left me...
