Poof!

With a light sound, Guan Qingsi's Immortal Sword pierced Wang Xiaoqiang's chest.

Guan Qingsi's eyes widened abruptly, her heart tightened, and a trace of pain flashed in her gaze.

Although she hadn't known Wang Xiaoqiang for long, Guan Qingsi felt an inexplicable closeness to him, treating him like a younger brother. And now, she had actually stabbed this "little brother" in the chest with her sword, which was completely unacceptable to her.

Although the sword stabbed Wang Xiaoqiang's chest, the pain was felt in her own heart.

At this moment...

She was thoroughly flustered.

Wang Xiaoqiang was sleeping sweetly, when he suddenly felt a heavy blow to his chest, which punctured one of the Spirit Cocoons on his Spirit Cocoon Treasure Robe.

The Spirit Cocoon acted as a substitute death merit, blocking the sword strike for him.

Guan Qingsi had timely retracted the Sword Light from this strike, making it just an ordinary thrust without Spiritual Power. Even without the Spirit Cocoon's substitute death merit, this sword would certainly not harm Wang Xiaoqiang, because after all, he was a Blood Condensation Realm Seventh Layer master.

However, being stabbed by a sword in his sleep caused Wang Xiaoqiang to panic, and almost instinctively, without opening his eyes, he struck the green Immortal Sword with a palm.

With a crackling sound, the electric arc in his palm knocked the green Immortal Sword out of Guan Qingsi's hand.

The Thunderclap Annihilation Palm's power was formidable, not only knocking the green Immortal Sword from Guan Qingsi's hand but also causing blood to seep from her right hand's tiger mouth.

Already in a state of turmoil, Guan Qingsi suddenly lost her balance and fell into the Phantom Lotus, landing in Wang Xiaoqiang's arms.

After striking the palm, Wang Xiaoqiang opened his eyes, smelling a fragrant scent as a familiar woman fell into his arms—his Guanguan.

Seeing Guan Qingsi in his arms, Wang Xiaoqiang was simultaneously surprised and overjoyed.

Dear Guanguan actually ended up in his embrace so quickly!

The great joy left Wang Xiaoqiang dazed.

Feeling the warm, soft body in his arms, Wang Xiaoqiang was at a loss, as if he were dreaming.

Guan Qingsi had practiced martial arts since childhood, cultivating her dao with martial arts over more than ten years, developing a tough personality.

Though strong and tough, she was ultimately a woman, even without adornment, she was extraordinarily beautiful. However, due to her high cultivation base, men dared not approach her. Thus, she had never even held hands with a man before. Suddenly being held by a man and surrounded by his unique aura made her dizzy. Her entire body tensed up...

A second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Three seconds passed!

After three seconds, Guan Qingsi suddenly bounced up, her pretty face flushed red. She felt a bit flustered, a little shy, but mostly guilty for stabbing Wang Xiaoqiang with her sword.

A sword aimed at a fellow cultivator, although it was just an accident, was an unforgivable crime for her and would create a psychological shadow in the future.

"Xiaoqiang, are you alright?" Her hand reached toward Wang Xiaoqiang's chest, constantly searching for the wound.

"Guanguan, I'm fine!" Wang Xiaoqiang, who was also meticulous, realized her attack was unintentional, likely a mistake thinking he was a demon.

Seeing no blood or wound on Wang Xiaoqiang's chest, Guan Qingsi breathed a sigh of relief but was also puzzled. Although that was just an ordinary sword thrust, it should have caused some flesh wounds, yet Wang Xiaoqiang had none.

"Xiaoqiang, I'm sorry, I mistook you for a demon..." Guan Qingsi said guiltily. "Xiaoqiang, are you really okay??"

Guan Qingsi spoke, still worried, and started feeling Wang Xiaoqiang's chest again.

As her clean, white hand searched his chest, Wang Xiaoqiang started to breathe heavily, grabbing her hand, saying, "Guanguan, I'm really fine, look..."

To dispel Guan Qingsi's worries, Wang Xiaoqiang released the seven blood lines from his body to the surface, circling around him mystically.

Seeing the seven blood lines around Wang Xiaoqiang, Guan Qingsi's beautiful eyes widened slightly, revealing a look of amazement, half surprised, half admiring, saying, "Ah? Xiaoqiang, you're a Blood Condensation Realm Seventh Layer Body Refining Master?!"

"That's right." Wang Xiaoqiang replied with a self-satisfied expression, squeezing her silky hand, "Guanguan, now you believe that your sword strike couldn't harm me even a bit."

Upon hearing this, Guan Qingsi breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Xiaoqiang, it was really unintentional..."

Seeing her guilt, Wang Xiaoqiang understood her inner turmoil and comforted her by patting her fragrant shoulder, saying, "Guanguan, please don't blame yourself, I know it was a misunderstanding, I don't blame you at all. Even if you did harm me, I wouldn't blame you..."

Guan Qingsi raised her beautiful eyes to look at Wang Xiaoqiang's sincere smile, feeling warmth in her heart and, unable to control herself, she leaned her pretty face on Wang Xiaoqiang's shoulder, "Xiaoqiang, you're so nice!"

Wang Xiaoqiang hesitated momentarily, then hugged Guan Qingsi, saying, "Guanguan, do you know? I am grateful for this misunderstanding because without it, we wouldn't have met in the vast North Sea. Guanguan, I've always been worried about you..."

Wang Xiaoqiang, skilled in romance and speaking genuinely from the heart, moved Guan Qingsi deeply. She hesitated, then couldn't help but embrace Wang Xiaoqiang.

Holding the soft, fragrant, jade-like body in his arms, Wang Xiaoqiang could even feel her slightly nervous heartbeat.

Guan Qingsi could also feel Wang Xiaoqiang's strong heartbeat.

Their heartbeats were in sync!

...

The eastern horizon revealed a faint white, as the sky began to brighten.

On a grand lotus floating on the clear blue sea, a man and woman clung tightly to each other, creating a stunning scene.

After a while, Guan Qingsi blushed and muttered, "Let go!"

Wang Xiaoqiang laughed, "You're still holding on, aren't you?"

"Ah!"

Guan Qingsi gasped shyly, realizing she was still holding tightly onto him despite telling him to let go.

Embarrassed, she quickly released Wang Xiaoqiang and pushed him away, adjusting her disheveled hair and glancing at him. Seeing him still staring at her, she scolded, "Don't have any improper thoughts!"

Wang Xiaoqiang laughed, "Guanguan, I'm afraid you'll have improper thoughts!"

Hearing Wang Xiaoqiang drop the "sister" term and just call her "Guanguan," Guan Qingsi's heart fluttered, feeling shy, flustered, sweet, and slightly resentful, saying:

"Why didn't you call me sister?"

"Guanguan!" Wang Xiaoqiang obediently called, then whispered in her ear, "One day I'll drop the 'sister' term and just call you Guanguan rightfully."

Guan Qingsi blushed and punched Wang Xiaoqiang's chest.

Wang Xiaoqiang grabbed her fist and smiled mischievously.

Suddenly...

A ray of sunlight shot from the eastern horizon, and when it hit the lotus under their feet, the "Phantom Lotus" vanished.

Swish! Swish!

The unprepared pair fell into the sea.

Their clothes were completely soaked.

Confused, Wang Xiaoqiang felt unsettled as Guan Qingsi held him, lifting them out of the water.

As their wet bodies pressed together mid-air, Wang Xiaoqiang could feel her soft and wonderful demon body more clearly... (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote and recommend at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
