To complete the unfinished wedding night

Shen Wen listened, then fell silent for a moment.

He hadn't expected Cao Ying to be thinking like this.

Continuing the Dou Di Bloodline?

That was indeed a rather good reason.

He looked at Cao Ying with a strange expression, suddenly finding it a bit amusing, and asked, "Madam is so 'concerned' for me.

She even personally arranged a concubine for me, truly virtuous and magnanimous. But... since you're worried about the continuation of the bloodline, why not choose yourself and bear me a child first?"

Cao Ying hadn't expected him to ask so directly. Her enchanting cheeks instantly flushed crimson, the color spreading all the way to her earlobes.

In the depths of her heart, she had indeed considered it, but she always felt she wasn't ready.

Or rather, the shyness and pride unique to a young maiden made it difficult for her to speak up proactively.

Now, Shen Wen had exposed her thoughts.

She could only force herself to appear calm, habitually using a sharp tone to hide her inner panic: "You... you're getting a good deal and still acting smug!

Medusa, such a peerless beauty and a Dou Zong, is now willing to be your concubine. You're probably overjoyed, aren't you?

Still pretending here!"

Before she finished speaking, Shen Wen suddenly stood up. Before she could react, he opened his arms and gently pulled her into an embrace.

Cao Ying instantly froze, her mind a blank.

This hug was different from the urgent support in the underground lava before. It was also different from the domineering plunder of a forced kiss, carrying instead a clear, tender meaning.

It was also different from the domineering plunder of a forced kiss, but carried a clear, gentle meaning.

The man's scent instantly enveloped her, and his firm, warm chest transmitted a reassuring warmth through their clothes.

This pure, cherished intimate contact caused a far stronger emotional impact on her than any previous encounter.

Her cheeks were incredibly hot, her heart pounded like a drum, and even her breathing became difficult.

The hand she had intended to push him away with instead softly rested on his waist.

Shen Wen felt the stiffness and slight trembling of the delicate body in his arms. He chuckled, "Ying'er, thank you. Thank you for considering so much for me."

Cao Ying buried her face in his chest, his clear medicinal scent lingering at her nose, and stubbornly mumbled, "Who... who considered for you!

I... I'm just afraid that my old master is eager to hold a grand-disciple and will nag all day, which is annoying to death!

It's not specifically for you..."

Her voice grew softer and softer, becoming almost inaudible by the end.

That forced pride seemed so pale and powerless in the face of Shen Wen's sudden embrace and direct gratitude.

Shen Wen chuckled softly, tightening his arms slightly, pulling her deeper into his embrace.

Then, he asked a question that made Cao Ying's heart stop:

"But Madam, even if you are so 'magnanimous'... are you truly willing to let Medusa be my first woman?"

This sentence, like the sharpest arrow, instantly pierced through all of Cao Ying's defenses and pretenses.

Willing?

How could she be willing!

She was his lawfully wedded wife!

Pushing another woman towards him.

It was already the greatest concession and sacrifice she could make for him, for that ethereal yet immensely heavy responsibility of the bloodline.

But to make her give up the symbolically significant position of 'first'... Cao Ying suddenly looked up, her enchanting eyes shimmering with tears, filled with struggle, unwillingness, and strong possessiveness.

All her pride shattered at this moment. She looked at Shen Wen's handsome face, so close to her.

She opened her mouth, but found she couldn't utter a single word.

An ambiguous atmosphere silently spread and heated up in the alchemy room, almost consuming the two of them.

She stopped speaking.

She just gazed directly at Shen Wen with those misty, enchanting eyes, the surging affection within them almost overflowing.

Her delicate body in his arms unconsciously grew hot and soft, as if melting into him.

Shen Wen clearly felt the change in the beauty in his arms.

Meeting her gaze, filled with complex emotions, all words seemed superfluous.

He lowered his head and gently pressed his lips to her delicate red ones.

This kiss.

It was completely different from the uncontrolled, forceful kisses of the past.

There was no wildness, no plunder, only exploration and response.

Cao Ying responded awkwardly yet ardently, feeling an indescribable heat spread from their entwined lips to her limbs and bones.

It made her whole body tingle, as if she had returned to the scorching state when she refined the Green Lotus Core Flame.

But this heat was gentle and lingering, carrying an intoxicating magic.

At some unknown moment.

Her robes quietly slipped away, revealing the stunning beauty that Shen Wen had only glimpsed before.

Now, it was presented before him without reservation, adding a breathtaking allure under the soft light of the alchemy room.

Without outsiders present this time, Shen Wen was able to fully appreciate this beautiful sight.

The black bellyband underneath matched Cao Ying's personality, forming a strong contrast with her fair and rosy delicate body.

It instantly made Shen Wen's blood boil.

Cao Ying's pretty face was flushed crimson, her eyes swirling with seductive charm. She actively pressed closer to Shen Wen.

Her soft, fragrant body pressed against his firm chest, her breath like orchids, her voice trembling yet exceptionally clear: "The ceremony we... didn't complete when we got married... now... is the perfect time to make up for it."

The beauty's invitation, passion like fire.

The next moment.

The brocade quilt billowed, filling the room with the essence of spring... After a night.

Cao Ying opened her beautiful eyes, feeling her body as if it were about to fall apart.

She couldn't help but push Shen Wen, who was sleeping beside her. Thinking of last night, Cao Ying gritted her teeth.

She felt like she had fainted several times, yet this guy still hadn't let her go.

Shen Wen opened his eyes, a hint of playfulness in them, "Madam.

Initially, I did want to let you go. But this is a matter of a man's dignity."

Shen Wen was originally quite soft-hearted, considering she was new to such matters, and intended to finish quickly.

However, Cao Ying was unwilling to admit defeat at that time. She directly flipped over and mounted him, thus challenging Shen Wen.

She even said, "No way, you're already done?"

Naturally, Shen Wen had to show Cao Ying the physique brought about by cultivating the Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art.

"Hmph!"

Cao Ying snorted, but soon leaned against Shen Wen like soft spring water, "I, the dignified Demoness of the Cao Family, you got a good deal!"

"Oh, who was it before who established a soul contract, saying I couldn't force you into marital relations! I almost became a simp!"

"Last night, at the beginning, you were the one forcing me!"

Listening to the still stubborn Cao Ying, Shen Wen couldn't suppress the affection in his heart.

This little thing is truly adorable, who invented her.

"You, you can't talk about that anymore!" Cao Ying bit Shen Wen's shoulder.

"What's a simp?" Cao Ying looked at the teeth marks on Shen Wen's shoulder, nodded with satisfaction, then suddenly asked with some confusion.

"Uh, it's a saying I heard before, it means someone who gives endlessly to a woman without getting anything in return, but still continues to give." Shen Wen remembered that there was no such term as 'simp' in this world, and roughly explained it.

"Ah? Then you were indeed a bit like that before, hahaha!" Cao Ying was amused by Shen Wen's words, "But I gave you the essence blood of the Void Ancient Dragon back then, so you weren't really... a simp."

"Ah? Then you were indeed a bit like that before, hahaha!" Cao Ying was amused by Shen Wen's words, "But I gave you the essence blood of the Void Ancient Dragon back then, so you weren't really... a simp."

"You!"

"Alright, alright, you're not a simp! It should be that you were pursuing me! Hehe. I've scored a point first!"

"Simp, you said that's only when there's no response at all, but now I've given myself to you."

Shen Wen pinched Cao Ying's face, "Alright, it's time to get up. I remember Dan Chen comes to talk about alchemy with you every morning."

"Oh, right!"

Cao Ying got up, feeling her body almost falling apart, and shot Shen Wen another glare, "I'm not a magical beast! You really just keep using all your strength on me!"

After putting on her robes, Shen Wen also got up and dressed, stretching lazily, "I need to go to Mo City today, I almost forgot about Hai Bodong."

He only remembered this guy yesterday when he was refining the soul fusion pill.

"It's a good time for me to open my furnace too; I haven't refined any pills since getting the Green Lotus Core Flame."

Cao Ying nodded. This poe pill required a Heaven Flame to refine, so it was a good opportunity for her to try.
