Part two of two*****
Ren Zexian"s innersea was not like the beautiful landscaped garden within Nathan. It was unlikely it could be anymore different.
There was fire everywhere, not only the hot red and orange flames that Nathan often witnessed within his stove, but also there was a fire in the heart of it all that had flames that were black and scalding, threatening to disintegrate to ash anything that they touched. Winds blew violently through the sea of flames, whipping them into a frenzy and even causing whirlwinds of flickering red to burst into the burgundy sky. And there, two moons could be seen. One moon was golden, yet there were spiderweb thin cracks upon one side of it. The other was white-silver, yet there was a swirling ma.s.s of darkness violently throwing itself against the silvery edges.
In amidst of all this, Ren Zexian was standing peacefully, robed and with his hands clasped lightly behind his back. The flames did not touch him, just kissed the hem of his clothing once in a while as if as subdued and gentle as the vines guarding Nathan"s gardens.
Worried his beloved would be terrified by his volatile energies within his innersea, Ren Zexian had left a projection of himself in wait for his beloved, while he quietly guided his own energies towards Nathan"s body. That projection held out his hand to Nathan and the youth took it without hesitation.
The petals burned to ash, as they were swept along in the winds, feeding the flames which burned more hungrily. Then the droplets tempered them with their coolness and they fell back a little subdued. The steam and ash produced still held a soft glow and rose into the sky with the wind. The swirling ma.s.s inside the silver moon paused its battle and seemed to even retreat, however the wind had no time for it, instead, sweeping the unified energies into the web of meridians beyond the innersea.
Poison yin fled in the face of it, retreating and as more and more of the gentle glow of the foreign yang energy poured into the meridians, it found the routes of retreat cut off. It was corralled into the innersea, attracted by the black flames, yet resisting the attraction as if aware that in them lie only destruction. The swirling ma.s.s in the silvery moon became volatile once more as if demanding the taint to retreat, but there was no choice. It was swept into the shelter of the prison and became trapped inside.
Meanwhile, the scalding, windswept energy from had entered Nathan"s innersea, burning the plants within his garden before the flames were subdued beneath a wave of water, drawn like a waterspout from the pond. The ash settled on the ground and from it, new stronger shoots of green appeared, their unfurling leaves verdant and with more vitality than before. The water steamed creating a mist in which the glow of the central flower seemed even more bright. The small flickering black flames that still burned here and there was both attracted and repelled by the light and the two came together and formed a sphere as they circled each other.
As the poison was no longer and issue, the glowing light had gathered more and more inside Ren Zexian"s innersea, it too finding itself caught in dance with the black flames. Both spheres reflected the other and the energies that had been circling within the meridians, burning, soothing, stretching, easing, strengthening and healing were drawn towards the yin yang like spheres circling around them like asteroids around a sun, faster, more excitedly, more thickly until seemingly solid. This ma.s.s came in contact with the equalling growing spheres and the energies became less defined, became more compact until the ma.s.s could no longer spin due to weight. And then it cracked and exploded.
Ren Zexian"s eye"s fluttered open as the sparkling dust settled inside his innersea, landing on the sea of flames which crackled contentedly beneath a solid golden moon and calmed silver one. Beneath him, his lover still lie eyes shut but from the movement below his lids, he would also awaken soon. Overwhelmed with joy, Ren Zexian placed a loving kiss upon the youth"s forehead, but felt it did not express a fraction of the emotion welling inside of himself at that moment. This youth, this beautiful young man, it was as if the heavens had given him a most priceless and invaluable treasure.
His affection had long ago become love and that love had long since solidified in his heart, but now the connection he felt was indescribable. His beloved had not only allowed him this gift of Dao Companionship, but had further more aided his rise to breakthrough the tertiary stage and fix his damaged core. Even more amazing, he"d felt his beloved breakthrough to secondary, thus the youth was more firmly on the path of cultivation, extending his life and the life they could share together.
Ren Zexian kissed him again.
As he pulled away from his beloved, Nathan opened his eyes and offered Ren Zexian a beautiful smile. That smile froze for a moment and Ren Zexian felt a tightness grip him in the location that they were connected and almost groaned aloud. "Your p.e.n.i.s is still in me," Nathan mentioned, his thoughts along the line of wondering whether that was so as they need Dual Cultivate some more.
"I wish to make love to you now, Nathan," Ren Zexian told him, his heart still bursting needing to vent and such would be a perfect way; he could reveal to Nathan just how much he loved him though his body.
"Haven"t we already had s.e.xual intercourse?" Nathan queried.
Ren Zexian shook his head and placed a kiss upon his lips. "I will show you the difference now." Their lips were once more pressed together and Nathan felt the invasion of Ren Zexian"s tongue, but welcomed it with his own. The skin of his chest was once more subject of exploration, this time, the small soft circles there were lightly brushed over sending sparks of sensation running over his body. At first he couldn"t be sure if he liked it, yet his body was more honest and arched slightly towards the fingers teasing it. A soft whimper escaped his throat.
At the same time, Nathan became aware of a friction down below. At first he thought Ren Zexian was removing his p.e.n.i.s from his a.n.u.s, but the movement reversed and the connection deepened. It felt strange, sort of itchy, his body tightened again against the invasion, loosening, then tightened again trying to prevent the loss; he hadn"t finished a.n.a.lysing how he felt with it filling him! He felt Ren Zexian push inside him again, brushing against the tight ring of his hole and expanding his innerwalls and decided although it was strange, he didn"t dislike it.
Other touches were happening at the same time, his stiff p.e.n.i.s was gripped in a familiar way, stroked until he was drowning in the pleasure again, his hips moving in rhythm in complete want. He sought the sensation of fruition, but couldn"t concentrate on seeking it as there was too much information screaming along his senses as sparks of pleasure tricked from his nipples, from his p.e.n.i.s, from... lights seemed to explode in front of his eyes as a new burst of feeling came from inside of his body, seeming to originate from a place close to Ren Zexian"s invasion. No, it was caused due to the invasion!
The thick object brushed against that place again, drowning out the other sensations, demanding Nathan"s attention and his body gripped that which was causing it. Ren Zexian felt the increased tightness and almost shuddered with an explosion of his own, but the timing was not right now. He willed himself to calm as he continued his persistent, stable movements. His breath caught as Nathan tightened about him again, a gasp coming from the youth in unison, enlightening Ren Zexian. He ensured he pushed inside against the secret within his lover, enjoying the reactions he caused as he drove forward to bring Nathan even more pleasure.
His beloved"s release came suddenly, his yang essence spilling out between them and the youth flopped exhaustedly beneath him, but Ren Zexian did not stop moving above him, so his sensitive body leaking tears as the pleasure continued to tremor through him. Fortunately before he was too overwhelmed by it, a different sort of warmth filled him down below and the thrusting juddered to a halt.
Ren Zexian kissed his damp face, once more feeling full of emotion, but he no longer felt the need to expel any of it. He withdrew his now flaccid member and lay beside Nathan upon the rug, sharing the one pillow. Nathan sniffled a little, his body humming in contentment while his mind was swept within the rippling echoes of sensation and to that end, he instinctively curled into Ren Zexian"s embrace and fell asleep.
Ren Zexian remained awake for sometime, covering them both in his spare robes while using his high internal body heat to keep Nathan comfortable, protectively watching over his beloved"s rest. He did not count the minutes or hours, just peacefully continued to watch.
The remnant daylight receded into night and the night once more pa.s.sed once the sun rose in the early hours of the following morning. Nathan"s closed eyes trembled a little bit as he groggily awoke, still nestled into his lover"s embrace.
"Good morning, Nathan," Ren Zexian murmured softly and pressed a kiss upon his forehead. "How are you feeling?"
"My a.n.u.s is sore," Nathan admitted, bluntly. It was aching, lightly burning a little, but it was not unbearable. Other places felt some discomfort too, he also felt sticky and a bit itchy in places. He wanted a shower to clean his body quite desperately and rose from the place they lay in order to do so. However, his legs seemed unstable, he couldn"t quite find his footing. The expression he gave Ren Zexian was one aggrieved.
The older man did not chuckle out loud, but stood to support his beloved for a moment, then decidedly swept him into his arms, causing Nathan to yelp in surprise. "Trust me," he told the youth before he could struggle instinctively, once more feeling the need to kiss his forehead and express his emotions.
He took them outside as there was actually no bathroom they could use in the house, they would have to make do with towels that Chang Min had brought them with the pillow and other things, Nathan had to produce water for them to wash with, but he would have done this anyway. There was no one too close to the property during this hour, the air was still warm thanks to the summer heat and they were further blessed to be undisturbed by flying or sneaky rodent zombies. Ren Zexian made sure to clean Nathan inside and out, which further brought verbal complaint, but he also used a medication salve to ease his beloved"s discomfort. There was not a lot left of this healing salve from his own world, so he had not used it in this one, but his heart couldn"t bare to leave his lover in pain. Nathan was not aware such a treasure was used upon him, but was happy the discomfort was gone from that place at least.
They sat at the open patio doors of the sun room for a while, drying Nathan"s somewhat cleaned t-shirt while brewing a pot of tea upon a wood fire they"d created on a clear part of the paved patio. Nathan leaned contentedly against Ren Zexian, a glow still in his cheeks and his eyes unknowingly languid and brilliant. The web discolouration beneath Ren Zexian"s skin had vanished, his flesh seemed even more pure than before as if carved from the purest, mutton-fat jade, his eyes seemed even more deeper an obsidian than before. They basked in this glow for sometime, enjoying the refreshment before putting out the fire and slowly they made their way towards the main property for something to eat.
However, before they could reach it, they were drawn towards a disturbance, an altercation, it seemed, between people of the army base and those of their own haven. Jimmy was a top the high wall and turned his head to yell inward; "Oi, Cole! Go get them lot from the second property! They"ve been summoned!"
At that moment, both he and Cole, who happened to be with Dexter noticed the pair with their ambiguous aura wandering from the third property"s boundary. Cole nodded towards them, a smile upon his face before he hurried off to go find the three soldiers, while Dexter seemed to shed a large burden, his shoulders lifting before he too nodded and made his way to the wall.
The three soldiers were shocked when they saw Ren Zexian, but after they had picked up their jaws, their smiles could not be any less glad than the others. Ren Zexian greeted everyone with a similar gesture before frowning as he heard the accusations coming from beyond the wall. His eyes flickered up towards Cole, who grinned as he made his way to open the gates.
"This Gongzi..." he drawled, with sardonic intention towards the one "student" he could say never appreciated his teachings, "What seems to be the problem here?"
