Otherworldly Desert Dust

And she gazed into her own eyes, full of tenderness and deep affection. It had only been a short time apart, but it felt like centuries without him, and she waited for him to return without any resentment...

Who could withstand this?

Princess Yushu from the ancient tomb, Zhao Ling’er in the peach blossom forest, Xiaoqing in the waterfall pool...

Is this really gifting a girlfriend???

Do you have to treat me so well?

The Bathing Fairy in the waterfall looked even more like a young wife waiting for her husband to return home. After speaking coyly, she lightly bit her tender lips, her eyes moist...

"Ahem~" Wu Hen tried to cover up with a cough, though his earlobes had already turned red.

Not long ago, he had bragged that Mingyi had a tough mouth. In truth, he himself was a smooth talker; seeing such an astonishing scene made his heart race uncontrollably.

"You’ve brought the food back. So, what do you plan to eat first?" the Water Princess asked with a smile full of insinuations.

It was only then that Wu Hen noticed he had a woven backpack with a half-hung smoked deer leg sticking out!

As a seasoned surfer of the internet, Wu Hen certainly understood the implied meaning behind what the Water Princess was suggesting.

This was the ultimate question; nearly every bachelor hoped to be asked this by a perfect girlfriend at the end of a workday.

But for some reason, all that came to Wu Hen’s mind was wine in the ditch, sashimi on jade backs; those old boisterous friends had once told him that low-quality sashimi was kept fresh with ice, while top-grade sashimi was cooled on a woman’s cold jade-like skin...

"I... I’ll drink some water first."

Opening his water pouch, Wu Hen raised his head and drank!

So dry, this place was not Divine Python Earth Vein or Barbaric Mountain Range; it was Flame Mountain, where the heavens and earth were scorching. He needed to suppress his heat and restlessness by any means!

"Speaking of surrendering to lust, it should have little to do with my soul. I remain pure and virginal, right?"

For some reason, Wu Hen began to ponder philosophically.

"How about I choose for you?" The Water Princess still stood by the water’s edge.

The flowers near the water tactfully dispersed, the crystal-clear flow reflecting her exquisite form, making the already perfect scene even more overwhelming to human sanity.

Wu Hen found it hard to breathe, his cheeks flushed red.

Initially wanting to maintain his integrity and character, his body instinctively moved toward the Water Princess.

"Cousin, I’m sorry."

"Mingyi, I’m sorry."

"This host hasn’t entirely lost control; I can’t control him either!"

"I swear, you will always be my true loves..."

Wu Hen almost closed his eyes, allowing his body to really walk toward the water’s edge.

Those old junkie friends enjoyed playing by the pool, throwing money at those women. Wu Hen hadn’t understood before; now, as his heated body touched the cool and silky water, the contrasting sensation stimulated every meridian, skin, and sense. It was like stimulating the taste buds before tasting a delicacy to fully savor the top-grade ingredients...

It wasn’t that those were weird games; he had just been too young and proud.

He couldn’t look down on the techniques of those rich second-generation kids anymore; he had to learn from them frame by frame!

Wu Hen stood there straight, not knowing what to do.

The Water Princess, supine and boneless, began to kiss him, moving from his submerged body upwards. Soft and smooth, like a little water serpent, she slid across his chest, neck, and chin, finally prying open his stubbornly closed lips!

Pain!

Cold!

It felt like countless tiny, soft venomous spikes pierced his tongue! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Wu Hen’s body trembled slightly, his consciousness awakening sharply under the taste spirit’s warning signals!

Danger!

This woman was extremely dangerous!!

Blood rapidly circulated within Wu Hen’s host, his consciousness quickly reclaiming full control. His pupils contracted as he saw the woman’s reflection in the water, her jade feet carrying a long, soft tail beneath. The tail seemed transparent underwater, needing extreme focus to barely distinguish its outline...

It looked like a snake but wasn’t quite a snake, with wispy, filament-like tail extensions that matched the water flow, making it nearly impossible to identify by the naked eye. But due to such close contact, the transparent tail swayed with delight in the water...

No wonder she always "stood" in the water!

It’s said deep mountain lakes harbor demonesses who bathe to lure people into the water...

The common folk say evil waters have fish called guides. When people are greedy, they get pulled in and drown by the water’s edge.

It’s all the same principle!

Right now, he had encountered this River Girl Leader!

Hmph!

Even those old monks would see through you!

Sure enough, after using her tantalizing little tongue to numb him, the River Girl Leader slowly bared her fine, curved, snake-like fangs, initially taking a moment to admire them before biting toward his carotid artery!

So this is why, despite having a strong physique, his neck felt slightly stiff—it was a consequence of repeatedly donating blood to nourish a fairy!

Clearly, the host had many close encounters with this River Girl Leader. But now that he was awake, he wouldn’t further such immoral acts between a human and a demon!

One hand suddenly grabbed the River Girl Leader’s black hair, yanking her seductive lips away from his neck.

Skipping all the preliminaries and going straight for the blood?

No sincerity at all!

Wu Hen was not pleased.

"Hisssss~~~" The River Girl Leader, with her hair pulled, immediately revealed a ferocious expression but didn’t directly attack Wu Hen, glaring at him instead!

"Demoness, you think I’m still the robust man you could manipulate at will?" Wu Hen’s right hand began to display an ink jade color, the Black Qilin Arm already covering him, exuding the aura of a strong warrior!

"You’re... not my Qi Lang?" The River Girl Leader was equally shocked, her eyes revealing deep hostility!

"Your Qi Lang must have been completely drained of his yang energy, lost forever in this Divine Python Land, such malevolence. To drink fresh milk daily, you kept men like cattle, forcing them to fetch food and provide Yang Essence Blood!" Wu Hen coldly stated.

The Black Jade Qilin Arm already had a black cold stab prepared. If the River Girl Leader tried anything, Wu Hen would pierce her and send her to the afterlife.

"Lost? You say Qi Lang is entirely lost? Impossible, he said he was going to pick Earth Vein Flower Ganoderma for me! You’re lying; my Qi Lang is cognizant and sincere to me; he can’t be lost!" The River Girl Leader retorted furiously and emotionally.

"My name is Wu Hen."

"Wahhhh!!! I don’t care who you are, give me back my Qi Lang!!" The River Girl Leader screamed sharply, ready to fight Wu Hen to the death.

The River Girl Leader’s cultivation was not high, around Second Rank strength.

Wu Hen’s host was of the same Second Rank Physique, his power equivalent to his original form. With a little use of Little Yi’s Xuan Silk, he could subdue the River Girl Leader effortlessly!

To be safe, Wu Hen released black Xuan Fungus Silk, binding the River Girl tightly and dragging her out of the water.

Once out of the water, the River Girl’s tail became fully visible.

Initially considering her to be some carp spirit, water snake demon, or mere River Girl demon, Wu Hen was surprised to find the woman’s difference from humans wasn’t significant; rather than having legs and jade feet below the knees, she had very clean, soft, white salamander tails.

River Princess Salamander?

Difficult to judge good or evil.

However, seeing her heartbroken state, she did seem to have genuine feelings for the host and wasn’t merely a man-eater or bone-gnawing fiend!

Wu Hen was unfamiliar with the area and didn’t know what dangers lurked.

Not killing her immediately was also a hope to glean some information from this female fairy. It was apparent that she and the host had shared much time together.

Since the host was lost rather than a corpse rotting at the river’s bottom, there was no need for Wu Hen to kill the fairy outright.

"Alright, stop crying. You failed to control yourself, asking without boundaries; your lover was foolishly pumped up daily to serve you. It’s no surprise he got lost. Sudden death wouldn’t be unexpected either," Wu Hen said.
