Xuan Xina studied the youthful face of the man next to her. He was supposed to have become an immortal when he was fifty. But from his appearance, he looked like a young man in his twenties, the absolute prime of life.
His expression was one of confusion as well as excitement. Ice spring tea was very good for fire cultivators. Ice cooled flames. Yin supported yang. It made him relaxed and susceptible to her special art. It took advantage of her song-life voice to affect the mind of the opposite sex. It was especially effective when used in conjunction with ice spring tea.
"A prioress? Who… you?" Chen Wentian asked dumbly.
She smiled and leaned closer to him. His eyes darted down, no doubt peering at her cleavage that she intentionally put on display. Her breasts were not large but with the right outfits, it was adequate. Such an action strayed dangerously close to one of the prohibitions.
"Any prioress." She said softly as her cool breath formed a hazy atmosphere between them, "If you want, it could be me."
By this point, they were face to face, their noses almost touching. She did not find him irresistibly attractive. He was rather plain. A woman never judged a man solely on his appearance but also his wealth and power.
Putting aside the standards of Spirit Lords in the Martial Brilliance Continent, she had heard of his exploits in the subcontinent. He controlled multiple provinces, several immortal sects, and was even allied with a Spirit King Realm sect. He was no doubt a capable man.
If she was a mortal woman, perhaps she would also fall for a person like him, like Long Yifei was dangerously close to doing. She couldn't allow that to happen. Long Yifei was a divine daughter, she was not allowed to fall.
Xuan Xina put on her most attractive smile and slowly licked her lips with the tip of her tongue, "Wentian, am I beautiful?"
Chen Wentian nodded, "Very beautiful."
He grinned. Although he was inwardly angry at being played, he was also enjoying the moment for what it was. It wasn't every day that he could enjoy such attention from a prioress. They were supposed to be pure and proper, virtuous ladies who represented everything the Order stood for. But wasn't Xuan Xina acting like a common seductress right now?
"But what does the offer entail?" He asked.
His expression sobered and he put on an act of fighting the alluring effects being placed on him.
Xuan Xina didn't panic and placed a soft hand over his. Their touch allowed her to directly send her icy spiritual energy into his body as she tried to calm the flames inside him.
"Am I not adequate?" She asked, fluttering her eyelashes.
Chen Wentian shook his head as if trying to clear his mind, "Speak clearly, I need details or your offer has no meaning."
Xuan Xina hid a grimace. This guy surnamed Chen was a tough customer. He wasn't going to agree to vague promises and enticing ideas. If he didn't agree, the Order would have no choice but to get rid of him. Long Yifei would be sad and angry but they would just have to deal with it.
But the higher-ups didn't want that. They didn't want to ruin Long Yifei's mentality. They would rather pull her to their side by other means. Xuan Xina agreed with their thinking but why did it have to be her… why couldn't it have been some other prioress…
Seeing still hesitating, Chen Wentian took the initiative. He closed the distance and tilted his head. His lips pressed into hers before she could react.
Xuan Xian froze. Her mind turned blank. All she could feel was his unreasonably hot lips against hers. She had never been kissed like this before.
"Mmmm." She moaned.
She tried to pull back but he was too close and simply pressed her against the back of the couch.
She was a prioress of the Order, someone who had devoted her life to virtue. She could count the number of males she had ever kissed on one hand. They included her father, her little brother, a childhood crush when she was eleven, and finally her acolyte. But that was so long ago. She had never kissed another man after devoting her life to the Order. But now, this bastard was kissing her like this, like she was some cheap whore.
She finally found her wits and pushed him away forcibly. Gasping, she glared at her offender who had a stupid smile on his face. She wanted to curse him or turn him into a block of ice. But she remembered her task and held herself back.
"What's wrong?" Chen Wentian asked, "Didn't you say I could have a taste of a prioress?"
"I said no such thing." She retorted.
"You didn't? Then does your offer have any meaning?"
He knelt on the edge of the couch and loomed over her. He placed one hand beside her head and leaned in close. There was a fire in his eyes as he studied her. She could smell the faintly charred, manly scent of his body. The bulge in his pants told her what he wanted to do to her.
Ice clashed against flames. Their spiritual energies crashed together, creating sparks of light. The pillows beside her turned to ice. The tea set behind him melted into slag while the table burst into flames.
"Aren't you just a prioress?" He asked, "There are so many abbotesses above you and even cardinals. Don't you still have to do what they tell you to?"
She glared at him.
He laughed, "What's with that look? Are you unwilling? What did your master order you to do? Let me guess."
He leaned closer until their noses were almost touching, "As long as I agree to be the Order's obedient dog and hand my disciple over, I can do anything I want to you. Anything. I can even take you right here and make you my concubine. Am I wrong?"
"Bastard!" She spat.
Three ice needles formed in her right hand as she slammed it toward his neck. It was a vicious attack, born out of frustration and helpless rage. She was prioress of the Order. She had reached the Spirit Lord Realm at the age of forty-four and could be considered a talent. There was even an outside chance she could become an abbotess in her life if she worked hard. But now…
Blue flames erupted around Chen Wentian as he blocked her. He caught her wrist and held firm, melting her icicles and turning her pale skin red from the heat.
"Am I wrong?" He asked again.
She didn't reply.
He caught her other hand and pressed them both above her head so she couldn't attack him. He then found her lips again, kissing her roughly. She struggled beneath him, letting out sounds of displeasure. She even tried to bite his tongue.
"Heh." He laughed darkly.
He decided to avoid that dangerous mouth and moved to kiss her cheek, her soft jawline, and down her smooth neck. He licked and sucked like a beast solely focused on his own pleasure, focused on getting what he wanted.
Finished with her neck, he left a trail of hot kisses across the exposed skin of her shoulder and upper chest. Pushing aside her loose clothing with his spiritual force, one of her modest breasts appeared before him. A pretty pink nipple was situated on top of a gentle swell of soft flesh, like a snow-capped mountain peak. She was far from large, perhaps only a little bigger than Lin Qingcheng or Zhou Ziyun.
"Ah… don't." She protested.
But his lips were upon her in an instant. His tongue circled her rapidly hardening teat as he sucked her breast. No man had ever done such a thing to her before. Not even the acolyte she had lost so long ago.
"Stop it." She groaned. "Ah…"
She was starting to feel hot. In particular, a puddle of moist heat was starting to form down in her core. His tongue was too wild. His actions were too brazen. She felt as if she was being torched by his flames.
But just as she was about to succumb, the heat around her disappeared and so did his touch. A pair of hands adjusted her dress so that she was no longer indecent.
"Xina," Chen Wentian said, his eyes devoid of flames and surprisingly clear, "I won't force you. But I also don't want to reject the Order's offer. Please tell them to give me a little time, to give us time."
"What?" She asked.
He smiled, "You should know how I treat my disciples. I cherish every one of them. And I will cherish you too. We don't need to rush. Maybe one day, you can come to me willingly."
With that, he left the room and the confused prioress behind.
