How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 226 - 0222: Settling the Bet
Chapter 226: Chapter 0222: Settling the Bet
“Luo Feng has indeed said so, but don’t push things too far!”
In her shame and annoyance, Ye Luofeng couldn’t help but stamp her foot and glare fiercely at Chen Yu, although she lacked the courage to look him straight in the eye.
“Don’t push things too far? It seems that even you know your position isn’t strong.”
Chen Yu chuckled.
“You did say that if you lost the bet, you would accept any outcome, even if it meant offering yourself.”
The smile on Chen Yu’s face grew even more brilliant.
Such an icy and noble beauty, to be at one’s disposal, would send any normal man into fits of joy.
“Luo Feng has indeed said…”
Ye Luofeng’s beautiful eyes dimmed.
She lightly bit her lip, and there was finally a trace of yielding in her tone. Her cold autumn-like eyes grew misty with a hint of sorrow.
However.
No matter what, she would never cry and beg this young man.
Chen Yu saw through her pretense.
To make the always proud and aloof Ye Luofeng show weakness and bow to him seemed quite unrealistic.
Requests like “a kiss” or “offering herself,” even if there was a very slim possibility that Ye Luofeng would do it, she would resist it with all her heart.
“If you really want Luo Feng to offer herself to you, I hope you wait five or six years until we return to Beiyuan…”
Ye Luofeng spoke with a negotiating tone, her pretty face blushing.
Chen Yu’s heart skipped a beat at her words.
From the tone of her voice, it seemed there might be a faint hope for such requests.
However.
Chen Yu quickly fell into contemplation.
He had never intended to actually marry Ye Luofeng.
The original intent of the bet was a small joke that unexpectedly escalated.
He did feel a bit of affection for Ye Luofeng.
But that feeling remained at a level of mild attraction to a beautiful member of the opposite sex, not yet reaching the level of true romantic affection.
Additionally.
Ye Luofeng didn’t seem to have much of a fondness for him, let alone romantic feelings.
Forced fruit is never sweet, an important point to remember.
Even more so.
Chen Yu yearned for the pinnacle of cultivation, desiring to overlook greater and more magnificent vistas.
Marrying too early or getting distracted would be a loss not worth the gain.
“Well, I’ll drop the idea of taking this woman as my wife.”
Chen Yu convinced himself internally, resisting the foolish urge that arose from instinct.
After all.
The prospect of marrying such a stunningly beautiful wife was truly tantalizing.
“In that case, I won’t demand your hand in marriage.”
Chen Yu suddenly smiled.
Ye Luofeng let out a sigh of relief, a bit surprised.
She could vaguely sense the struggle and deliberation that had just occurred within Chen Yu’s heart.
Suddenly.
She began to see this young man in a new light.
In Beiyuan, Qi Country, as well as in the current Yun Zhao Country, countless talented youths had fallen in love with her at first sight and pursued her.
If.
There was such an opportunity for Ye Luofeng to become the wife of these youths by force.
Certainly, these so-called talented individuals would not let such a chance slip by.
But now, this young man had chosen to give up such a request.
Ye Luofeng couldn’t help but look at this young man, who had achieved miracles time and again, with fresh eyes.
He was tall and not excessively handsome, but he had a rugged charm about him, occasionally tinged with a touch of cynicism.
All at once.
She found this young man not as disagreeable as she had initially thought, even quite exceptional, especially considering his tough mindset.
However.
Ye Luofeng’s change of heart was quickly overturned by Chen Yu’s next words.
“However, if I could have a kiss from Miss Ye and thus settle our account, that would also be a fine idea.”
Chen Yu couldn’t help but lick his lips.
Somehow, he was reminded of the night he had secretly indulged in forbidden fruit with Qiu Xinxin.
Thinking back on it was indeed tantalizing and nostalgic.
“You…”
Ye Luofeng’s delicate body trembled slightly, her indignation and rage intertwining, causing her to shiver.
Much to her surprise.
Just as she was beginning to see him in a better light, he made such an explicit request.
“Are you really sure you want to do this?”
The girl gave Chen Yu a deep look, her beautiful eyes filled with a chilling aura.
Chen Yu shivered involuntarily, feeling a penetrating coldness from her, and a sense of unease settled in his heart.
The truth was.
His suggestion of a kiss was not meant in earnest but was a test of Ye Luofeng’s boundaries.
If it worked out, so be it; if not, he would not insist.
But now, seeing Ye Luofeng looking serious and icy as she made her inquiry.
It seemed… there might be a chance.
Ye Luofeng, seriously and unusually so, stared at Chen Yu for a long while.
“Even before we teleported to Yun Zhao, Luo Feng already owed you a life. Taking into account this bet, if you truly desire it, Luo Feng must oblige.”
Ye Luofeng smiled bitterly, her face etched with sorrow.
Chen Yu was struck in his spirit.
First of all, Ye Luofeng was actually willing to honor her promise and accept his request.
Secondly, the sadness and helplessness on the girl’s face touched Chen Yu.
“Fine then, Miss Ye is so unwilling and reluctant, even if I could have a kiss, it wouldn’t be enjoyable.”
Chen Yu gave a bitter laugh.
Truth be told, who wouldn’t want to kiss such a fair-skinned and exquisite beauty?
If Ye Luofeng didn’t have strong mental resistance to it, Chen Yu naturally wouldn’t pass up the opportunity.
But given the current situation, it went against Chen Yu’s own principles.
“Are you really being serious this time?”
Ye Luofeng’s bright eyes sparked with a trace of bewilderment, still doubtful.
“I am.”
Chen Yu sighed, cursing himself for his soft-heartedness, letting such a ripe lamb escape.
“Hmph! It seems you’re not completely bad at heart. If you had really agreed just now, Luo Feng would comply. But afterward, I would cut you in two with a single sword.”
Ye Luofeng snorted coldly, a faint smile curling her lips.
Sweat formed on Chen Yu’s forehead.
If at the climactic moment of the act, to be cut down unexpectedly, that would be truly unforeseeable.
“Don’t be too pleased, Miss Ye. I may not demand marriage or a kiss, but I still can make a request that isn’t too excessive.”
Chen Yu cracked a smile.
Ye Luofeng’s delicate body stiffened, as she suddenly remembered that her bet and promise were still unfulfilled.
“You say.”
Ye Luofeng’s expression became serious.
As long as it wasn’t a request of a kiss or similar, she trusted herself to fear nothing.
“I want you to be my servant for five years, completely at my disposal within reasonable limits.”
Chen Yu said blandly.
Hearing this, Ye Luofeng’s expression changed slightly, but it wasn’t as intense as the previous two times.
This request wasn’t too excessive.
It did not require her to commit her body or even a kiss; being a servant for five years should be doable, right?
“The next five years are critical for my advancement and breakthrough. Can you postpone it until five years later?”
Ye Luofeng looked slightly troubled.
“It can be postponed until five years from now, but that owed kiss cannot be lessened.”
Chen Yu stated unequivocally.
He had calculated in his heart that five years later, Ye Luofeng’s cultivation would have greatly advanced.
At that time,
he would return to Beiyuan with a beautiful personal bodyguard by his side; it was truly wonderful!
“Okay.”
Ye Luofeng pondered for a moment and finally agreed, her cheeks flushing red.
The previous kiss bet was initially postponed to the next bet implicitly.
Now,
if she could not even accept this minor request, then she would truly be someone who did not keep her word.
“I’ll fulfill the promise of that kiss right now.”
Chen Yu revealed a mischievous expression.
“You…”
Ye Luofeng’s pretty face turned beet red, embarrassed and annoyed, wishing she could find a crack to crawl into.
Before she could speak,
Whoosh!
A residual image flashed, and Chen Yu swiftly closed in on her.
Then,
her gracefully lithe figure was embraced by Chen Yu’s outstretched arm.
Looking at the breathtakingly beautiful face before him, Chen Yu’s expression was greedy, almost drooling as he went in for a kiss.
However,
before his mouth could touch her creamy skin,
Slap!
A slender, jade-like palm struck Chen Yu’s face.
“Ouch! You woman—”
Chen Yu became furious.
But the next moment, his facial expression froze.
A scent of orchids in an empty valley wafted over him, strands of hair brushed past his arm, tickling gently.
His lips touched something soft and fragrant, smooth and moist like jade.
A flawless, stunning face was almost touching his, the fragrant breath overwhelming.
Their lips made contact for a moment, bringing an electrifying sensation that touched the heart.
Chen Yu’s eyes bulged wide.
In just a brief moment, her luscious, sweet lips had already moved away.
The initiator, Ye Luofeng, had her heart pounding and ears almost glowing red.
“You did what?”
Chen Yu was stunned, wondering if this woman had a sudden change of heart or was swayed by his kingly aura.
“I, Ye Luofeng, will not allow others to take liberties with me easily. That kiss is now fulfilled.”
A sly glimmer flickered in Ye Luofeng’s eyes, her cheeks still flushed.
Whoosh!
She turned into a graceful white silhouette and left without looking back.
Only when she had left Chen Yu’s courtyard did Ye Luofeng’s heartbeat remain fast, and her pretty face was burning hot.
…
Inside the room,
Chen Yu was in a daze for a long time, the aftertaste of the kiss lingering, leaving a sensation as if the sound was still echoing around the beams.
“This woman is interesting…”
Chen Yu grinned widely as he reminisced and laughed.
After all,
his bet with Ye Luofeng had reached a temporary conclusion.
This kiss might have been a small compensation from Ye Luofeng; otherwise, she could have just kissed him on the cheek.
Additionally,
according to the terms of the promise, after five years, Ye Luofeng would become his servant for five years.
“Servant?”
Chen Yu murmured softly, looking forward to that day.
After Ye Luofeng left,
Chen Yu closed his eyes and began practicing “Heavenly Heart Refining,” quickly reaching a state where his mind was as vast as the sky and as serene as a lake’s surface.
His spiritual power and will continued to consolidate.
At a certain moment,
Chen Yu’s Spiritual Sense touched the sealed cocoon in his left arm.
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
More cracks appeared around the cocoon.
“Master…”
A milky voice seemed to sense Chen Yu’s attention.
“Flame Spirit, how can I control the sealed ‘Blood Crystal Flame’?”
Chen Yu asked.
Inside the cocoon, the sealed blood bead contained terrifying Blood Path Flame Power.
“Master, you haven’t learned the ‘flame control technique’; currently, you can only use the Blood Dragon Beast Bloodline as a medium for me to unleash a hint of flame power,” the milky voice explained.
“Oh? Flame control technique?”
Chen Yu couldn’t help but fall into thought.
The Blood Dragon Beast’s Blood Scale Bloodline was similar in nature to the “Blood Crystal Flame,” which allowed Chen Yu to wield a trace of its power with the help of the “Flame Spirit.”
However,
this was not a long-term solution.
Without the “flame control technique,” one couldn’t fully refine and control this flame power like True Qi.
“Master, you must find the ‘flame control technique’ as soon as possible so you can refine the ‘Blood Crystal Flame’ and achieve a perfect fusion with me,” the milky voice said.
“Of course,”
Chen Yu nodded, then suddenly changed the subject,
“However, you need to explain clearly how you, as the ‘Blood Soul Flower Spirit,’ came to be the Flame Spirit of this flame.”
