Chapter 822: They Kissed!
Sure enough, they had to summon the demons and monsters since they wanted to feed some fish food.
Without saying a word, the man gave them a warning look as a signal to not say things that were not meant to be said.
The monsters immediately adopted a look that said, “I’m well-behaved, I’m nothing but a goldfish.”
Phoenix truly felt that this was a good place as there were a lot of new things to be discovered.
Moreover, the monsters tamed by him were very obedient, they would do whatever he asked.
The man gave out a laugh and put both of his hands behind his head, “Hey, you’re not planning to feed these goldfish for the entire night, right?”
“Of course not.” Phoenix thought it over, then gazed at the man’s face. All of a sudden, she turned to the side and kissed him on his forehead while mumbling, “And kissing. All done.”
The Emperor did not expect that she would give him a kiss. There was a brief hint of astonishment on his usual apathetic, handsome face.
Even the demons and monsters who arranged themselves in goldfish shapes were petrified by Phoenix’s action.
To be honest, they had never expected Phoenix to take the initiative when it involved this!
They had prepared for the scene where the Emperor would be ordered around by Phoenix… But why did it not go as planned!
After the kiss, the man was seen glaring coldly at her, as if she had crossed the line.
She felt the need to explain, “Don’t we need to kiss? It’s written on the scroll.”
“We do need to kiss, but you’re too insincere.” The man reached out his hand and pulled her closer, “Couples in the human world never act half-heartedly when they are in a relations.h.i.+p. If you are not good at it, I could teach you.”
Phoenix pondered for a while before nodding her head.
She actually agreed!
The demons were all dumbfounded at this!
Phoenix had always been a smart girl, why would she be this silly when it comes to relations.h.i.+ps?
The Emperor is obviously deceiving her!
The man was quite surprised as well, “You agreed?”
“I heard that you are great in this field.” Phoenix paused, “Besides, this is my first time visiting someone else’s house. I can’t let others think that I’m brus.h.i.+ng it off.”
The man looked at the solemn little face in front of him and smiled suddenly, “Interesting. Who told you that I’m great at doing this?”
“Oh, the time when I was in the Region of Snow to hunt for monsters, I met the deity who was your matchmaker by chance. He emphasized this aspect when he was talking to the father of the Snow Mountain G.o.ddess. Since the demon that I wanted to kill was in that area, I happened to overhear them. In the end, they noticed me and blushed in shame.” Come to think of it, Phoenix wondered, “Till now, I don’t understand why they had blushed.”
The demons facepalmed. Of course people would blush if a lady heard them talking about those kinds of things!
“What happened after that?” The man was interested now, he wanted to know how she handled it.
Phoenix looked at him, “Then I captured the monster in front of them and brought it back to Buddhism for reformation.”
The demons, …Those people must have wished that they could dig a hole and buried themselves at that point of time. How could you still have the mood to hunt!
The man could not hide his laughter any longer. He buried his face in her neck and stopped what he was intending to do.
“Why are you laughing so hard? Did I do anything wrong?” Phoenix furrowed her arched brows, “I didn’t mean to interrupt their conversation, but you know, I can’t be away from Buddhism for too long. Moreover, the evil demon was still lingering in front of them, and my patience was wearing thin. I did ask them to continue their conversation and just ignore me. Who knew they would be scared off.”
The man reached out his hand and pulled Phoenix’s hand over, with a hint of indulgence in his tone, “Right, they are more of a coward.”
“Then only I came into realization that your selling point is your strong ability. No wonder so many people are trying to be your matchmaker.” Phoenix covered herself with the quilt. She rarely had the chance to talk to anyone while lying down, hence she had a lot to say.
She did not notice that her last sentence had made the man deepened his gaze, “My selling point is my strong ability?”
“Isn’t it so?” Phoenix asked in return.
What a question… What kind of man would admit that he isn’t good at this?
The demons looked at each other, then looked up to the sky in unison. As a matter of fact, dealing with Phoenix would not be an easy task for the Emperor.
At the very least, the Emperor had not used his ruthless tactics on her.
It seemed like being silly had its own benefits. On top of that, Phoenix was smart herself, though she was silly throughout the process, her last counterattack was brilliant.
The man’s gaze deepened, but he had this evil smile on his face, “Do you want to try?”
“What?” Phoenix raised her eyebrows.
Using his fingers, the man untied her ca.s.sock while his thin lips curled up slightly, “My ability.”
The man activated a tactical formation even before he finished his words. Demons or G.o.ds, no one could enter nor destroy the formation.
Just like what Phoenix had said, this man was the only person who was not under the control of Buddhism.
Phoenix’s skin was originally pale. The loosened ca.s.sock could easily expose the skin of her collarbone and chest, displaying a breathtaking allure.
At the sight of this, his gaze deepened and his breath became warmer, “What a beauty. It’s a pity for a person like you to be raised in Buddhism.”
Phoenix did not expect things to go this way. She looked into the pair of eyes right in front of her, and the next moment, the prayer beads on her hand transformed into a noxious scythe.
The man chuckled. He glanced at the side of her body, then exerted force and single-handedly pressed on her shoulder, “Why are you using a weapon on the bed? Don’t you want me to teach you? Don’t forget that you’re here as a visitor.”
Phoenix felt that she had overreacted when she heard the word ‘visitor’. She kept the scythe and spoke, “I don’t want to try that.” Phoenix was just about to reach out her hand to push him away, and right before she could touch his body, the man pulled her into his embrace.
Without knowing whether it was because she had offended the precepts of Buddhism.
A thunderbolt flashed through the sky and fell right behind them, a cracking sound was heard. Amid the flas.h.i.+ng sparks, everything had frozen in time.
In a split second, he laughed and used his finger to touch her lips without being affected by the surroundings, “It’s fine if you don’t want to try that, but we still have to practice kissing, right?”
His thin lips were just at a few centimeters away from her and his fingers seemed to be warm.
Phoenix had no idea why her heart was beating fast.
The distance between them seemed to be too close.
She had never felt like this before.
Before she managed to understand her own feelings, her thin lips were fully covered with another person’s breath.
The unique sandalwood scent of the man pervaded her oral cavity.
Phoenix’s eyes were wide open!
She could only stare at him blankly, as the man narrowed his eyes. His eyelashes were s.h.i.+vering, his tall nose was pressing against hers, and a lively smile appeared at the corner of his eyes and brows…
