"This reminds me of what the Bible says: woman is the source of temptation. The Book of Ecclesiastes says her words are like a scorching fire, and the Book of Proverbs says she will prey upon a man's precious soul. Even the strongest of men can be ruined by her.
Ecclesiastes also says that a woman is more bitter than death. Her heart is a snare and a net, and her hands are shackles. She is an instrument of the Devil. It seems now that a man can play the same role."
Delang sized up Gwen, who stood beside Eric. Gwen's figure was slender, almost womanly.
Delang detested excessive intimacy between men, especially between fellow Cultivators.
But for some reason, he felt no such disgust now.
'Perhaps it's because Gwen seems so gentle?'
"In the Gospel Books, at least, not a single woman described ever abandoned her faith in Christ for the sake of desire.
Believe me, Delang, God rejoices in human love and intimacy," Eric said with a soft chuckle.
