Chapter 487: 487. End of the Ceremony

With a great whoosh, the sea of blue flames receded as Yang Gehu fell unconscious, saving him from actually turning into a roasted turtle. His previous impeccable hair was half-burned away. His clothes were charred and in complete disarray. The only thing that saved him from certain death was the rule that prohibited killing in a Noble Acolyte Duel.

Chen Wentian watched his fallen foe with waning interest. Yang Gehu was far too inexperienced and too sheltered. Even the twin bandit immortals of the Red Sun Gang had put up a better fight. He couldn’t quite grasp why but perhaps the Yang Clan or the Seven Potentates, in general, were too dependent on Sacred Daughters to improve their cultivation. In the progress, they had grown complacent and stagnant. Or maybe Yang Gehu was just an idiot.

“Yang Gehu has fallen unconscious and can no longer battle. Acolyte Chen Wentian is the winner!” Li Shishi’s voice rang out.

There was a moment of stunned silence before a scattering of polite applause. But most chose not to make a sound, uncertain how the members of the Seven Potentates would react.

A moment later, the protective array of the dueling arena was undone. Yang Gehu’s limp body was pulled down by Abbotess Yang and held in a protective bubble of spiritual energy. Chen Wentian also descended and landed next to Long Yifei, receiving a warm hug from her for his troubles.

“Looks like Yang Gehu isn’t going to awaken anytime soon. How should we settle the outstanding debt?” Li Shishi asked.

Abbotess Yang shot her a vicious glare, “Yang Gehu is going to be banished. Isn’t that already enough punishment? Where is he supposed to find five hundred kilograms of orange spiritual crystal?”

“Hehe, don’t try to worm your way out of this. If he can’t pay, then his clan should. Or should I take the amount out of your allowance?” Li Shishi retorted.

“Fine!” Abbotess Yang snapped back, “You’ll have the money by tomorrow.”

“Good, it’s better not to make a fool of yourself and the Yang Clan anymore.”

“Hmph!”

With a swirl of spiritual energy, Abbotess Yang carried Yang Gehu away and left the grand banquet hall to seek medical treatment.

Li Shishi turned to address the audience, “What an exciting series of events. We rarely get to see a Noble Acolyte Duel during a Gift Giving Ceremony. Tonight will certainly go down in the historical records. I’m sure many of us did not expect acolyte Chen Wentian to survive the night. He not only defended against two challenges, but he also showed us that he is indeed a suitable acolyte for Sacred Daughter Long Yifei. Truly impressive! Acolyte Chen, do you have any thoughts after the struggles of tonight?”

Chen Wentian replied in a clear but even tone, “Abbotess Li, I am simply glad that it is over. Long Yifei and I came to the Martial Brilliance Continent to seek the wonders of the Virtuous Order. We did not come here seeking a fight with anyone. If provoked, I have to defend myself but I have no intentions of making enemies with anyone. I hope that the Yang Clan of Great Waves can understand the situation and that I will harbor no ill feelings towards them after tonight.”

His words were reasonable. It was the right thing to say given the stage he was on. There was probably nobody who actually believed that he was sincere. But the intent was to make peace, at least temporarily. The Yang Clan would look for payback but they would have to wait until they found another valid reason to mess with him or Long Yifei.

He glanced at Long Yifei who was still glued to his side. He gave her waist a squeeze which earned him a brilliant smile, proving to him that all of this had been worth it in the end.

“Very well.” Abbotess Li said, “Let us bring a close to this challenge. Sacred Daughter Long Yifei and acolyte Chen Wentian, you both may return to your seats.”

“Thank you, abbotess.”

“Thank you, Abbotess Li.”

The pair returned to their table and the evening’s festivities continued. There were two more challenges after theirs but they both didn’t have the heart to pay attention.

Her joy was contagious and very distracting. Her dazzling smile which refused to wane occupied every empty space in his mind. She fed him small morsels of food while ignoring everything around her. She proudly showed any remaining doubters that her relationship with her acolyte was stronger than ever.

Their chairs had, at some point, scooted side by side. She was draped over him, leaning against his shoulder, her breasts pressed against his arm. Every time she shifted to deliver another bit of food to his mouth, he could feel her softness and the perky tip of her nipple. It was intoxicating and entirely inappropriate for the public setting they were in!

“Cough… Fei’er…” Chen Wentian mumbled through a mouthful of an unknown but fragrant delicacy, “You should stop.”

“Stop what?” She whispered.

“Umm…”

“Stop what?” She said again, her breath tickling his ear.

“Fei’er, you’re driving me crazy.”

She let a small laugh and leaned even closer. With a free hand, she even started to rub his thigh. She was truly daring!

His little dragon reacted vigorously. Before he could produce a prominent tent in his pants, he had to forcibly suppress it with his spiritual energy, drawing great protest from his raging instincts. He also forced her hands away to her great disappointment.

“No fun.” She said with a pout.

“Shh!”

Chen Wentian tried to ignore Long Yifei but she had other things on her mind. As soon as he lowered his guard, her hands would be all over him once again. He would then pretend to be annoyed and push her away which caused her to pounce with even more enthusiasm the next time around.

Their little game turned the rest of the Gift Giving Ceremony into a pleasant blur. Abbotess Li finished a long, rambling closing speech which both of them failed to care about and the ceremony was finally over.

Chen Wentian and Long Yifei were among the first to stand up. She hugged him tightly and he flew them out of the grand banquet hall in the blink of an eye. They both wanted the same thing and he knew where to go. Wordlessly, he zoomed through the empty hallways, arriving in front of her dorm room in a few short breaths.

She unlocked the door and he shut it behind them with a loud bang. Her lips were on his in an instant, searing hot with overflowing desire. He accepted her fully, letting her body melt into his as he cradled her waist.
