Chapter 330: This Is a Job for Feiyan
"Xixi."
Qiao Xixi felt her body plummeting downwards. The next instant, she plunged into the sea.
A halo of light before her slowly expanded, and she saw Xijing, who had grown a fishtail.
"Are... are we in an illusion?"
Xijing smiled, pulling her hand and drawing her into his embrace. The gentle sway of his fishtail sent an involuntary shiver through Qiao Xixi.
She looked down and saw that her own legs had, at some point, also transformed into a fishtail.
Xijing held her, placing a kiss on her cheek.
A voice thick with suppressed emotion whispered in her ear.
"Xixi, I’ve missed you so much..."
A trail of soft kisses fell across her skin.
Qiao Xixi rested her hands on his shoulders, panting softly. Surging passion swirled between their two tangled, swaying fishtails, stirring ripples in the water.
At the peak of their passion, Qiao Xixi couldn’t help but hold him tighter, letting him take her again and again.
A deep blue halo of light flowed from Xijing’s body, seeping into Qiao Xixi bit by bit. That familiar, satisfying feeling of being filled washed over her once more.
Her breath suddenly hitched, and her arms wrapped tightly around him.
Xijing sensed her pleasure and crushed his lips to hers. The water trembled violently, carrying with it a madly surging wave of heat.
Qiao Xixi’s breathing gradually steadied. She opened her eyes to find that Xijing, who was leaning against her, had fallen asleep.
She put the pearl that had rolled to the side into her space, then pulled the animal-hide blanket over them both.
Even in his dreams, Xijing’s arm subconsciously pulled her into his embrace, holding her close. Only by feeling her warmth and softness could he sleep peacefully.
Qiao Xixi studied his features in the faint moonlight. The Jue Sha over his eyes had been removed, revealing the eyes that had been hidden beneath it.
’There’s medicine in my space that could heal his eyes, but I don’t have enough points right now. I’ll have to use a Regeneration Flower to treat him.’
’Come to think of it, if all went well, the black bear male I released should have returned to the Black Panther Tribe by now.’
Before falling asleep, she opened her map locator to check on Sunxiao and Sangze’s position. According to the map, they had already covered a third of their journey. Their location was still moving, which meant they were safe, so she could finally sleep without worry.
While Qiao Xixi and the others slept soundly, chaos had erupted in Wing Beast City.
In a night sky lit only by the faint light of a crescent moon, a massive Phoenix Beast swooped down and landed in a magnificent palace.
Inside the palace, a male Phoenix Beast dressed in Fiery Red Feather Clothes wore a grim and cold expression.
Hearing a noise, he looked up to see a male Black Phoenix, whose dark feathers seemed to radiate an eerie, cold light. "Well? Did you find Yaya?"
The Black Phoenix’s expression was glacial. He shook his head. "We lost Yaya’s trail on the road near Black Mountain. I’ve already sent them out to search in different directions. We will find her."
It was hard to tell if he said that last part for the other male Phoenix Beast or to reassure himself.
"And Huang Ying? Where did she go?"
The Black Phoenix’s expression remained cold. "I don’t know. She returned not long ago, only to leave again with Fenglin."
The male Phoenix Beast snorted coldly. "I’ve told her time and again to stay in the city and stop running around, to give birth to more children of the Phoenix Clan’s bloodline, but she refuses to listen. I heard she went to Tiger Beast City before? Do you know what she was doing there?"
The Black Phoenix lowered his gaze, hiding the coldness in his eyes. "It seems she went to buy Salt Crystal from Tiger Beast City."
"Hmph. Jin Wei is ruthlessly ambitious. What is a female like her doing making contact with him? Don’t let her drag Wing Beast City into this. Go. Send more powerful males to find Yaya, and then bring Huang Ying back to me. Her only child is missing, what is she thinking, running all over the place!"
The Black Phoenix responded, "Yes."
He turned, walked out onto the corridor, and leaped into the air, rapidly shifting into his beast form and soaring into the sky.
The eastern sky began to pale.
In a state between sleep and wakefulness, Qiao Xixi felt a trail of soft kisses land on her body, rousing her from her slumber.
A soft moan escaped her throat. The previous night’s frenzy had left her body extremely sensitive, and yet those soft lips deliberately teased her most unbearable spots.
Qiao Xixi opened her eyes and steadied Xijing, whose head was buried against her body. Her voice trembled as she said, "Xijing..."
Xijing paused and lifted his head. "Xixi, you’re awake. It’s still early, want to sleep a little longer?"
Qiao Xixi frowned slightly. ’After all this, how am I supposed to sleep?’
"I don’t want to sleep anymore."
"Then let’s do something else."
"Hm? Mmph!"
He grasped her fair white legs in his hands, and before Qiao Xixi could react, he plunged inside her.
That single motion completely woke her still-drowsy morning body.
After the storm had passed, they both fell back asleep. When they woke again, it was already broad daylight outside.
Qiao Xixi opened her eyes and saw that Xijing was still sleeping soundly. She didn’t wake him, simply getting up, tidying herself up, and opening the door to go outside.
But the moment she opened the door, she jumped in fright.
"Jin Ling, what happened to you?"
Jin Ling was standing on the veranda, his exposed arms black and blue, and even his face was bruised.
Jin Ling seemed not to want her to see him like this, slightly turning his body to avoid her gaze when he heard her voice.
"It’s nothing. I just bumped into things by accident while practicing last night."
Qiao Xixi didn’t believe him for a second. ’What kind of practice could leave him looking like this?’
She stepped forward and took his hand, not letting him look away.
Looking closer, she saw there were even more injuries than she’d first noticed. Qiao Xixi was stunned. "Who beat you up?"
Just as Jin Ling was about to speak, Qiao Yi walked up.
"Langqi, was the tribe invaded by outsiders last night? Did you go fight them off?"
Qiao Yi glanced at Jin Ling and snorted. "No. I just stretched my limbs a bit last night, then slept very well."
Qiao Xixi looked at Jin Ling, then at Langqi, and frowned. She said to Jin Ling, "Let me put some medicine on that for you."
Qiao Yi scoffed, "It’s just a few surface wounds, what’s the big deal? If you’d woken up a little later, the swelling would’ve already gone down. What’s the point of putting medicine on it?"
"Langqi, even surface wounds hurt!"
Jin Ling kept his eyes downcast and said softly, "Xixi, Langqi is right. A few injuries like this are nothing to me... HISS..." He sucked in a sharp breath before he could even finish.
Qiao Yi’s eyes went wide.
’Isn’t he even better at faking it than that fish?!’
Qiao Xixi pulled Jin Ling into the room and took out some Recovery Glue to dab on his wounds.
Seeing this, Jin Ling grabbed her hand.
"Xixi, I’m really fine. This medicine is rare, don’t waste it on these minor injuries."
Qiao Xixi pulled her hand free and applied it directly.
"I just told you, if it’s an injury, it will hurt. And when you’re in pain, my heart aches too."
"Xixi..." Jin Ling suddenly felt a pang of regret. He shouldn’t have let Qiao Xixi see him like this.
Qiao Xixi worked quickly, and after applying the medicine, she pulled him in for another inspection. Only after confirming that she hadn’t missed a single spot did she stop, satisfied.
"Did you go spar with Langqi last night?"
"Mhm."
"Is Langqi strong?"
"Very."
Qiao Xixi pursed her lips, and as an idea came to her, she leaned close to Jin Ling’s ear and whispered, "Next time you spar with him, do this..."
Jin Ling was stunned as he listened. He stared at Qiao Xixi in disbelief, wondering how she could have come up with such a dirty trick.
"Is... is that a good idea?"
"Not really. You’re not suited for it. This kind of thing should be left to Feiyan."
