Nangong Qianyu turned her head and went straight for Ye Ming's lips.
She placed her hands on Ye Ming's shoulders, straddled him, and launched a frenzied assault with her lips and tongue.
Ye Ming, naturally, did not lag behind. He cupped Nangong Qianyu's proud hips with his hands and met her surging offensive head-on.
Amidst the intense onslaught, the moves of both parties began to change. Their attacks were no longer confined to lips and tongues.
Both individuals sought to conquer more territory from the other.
Thus, they did not hesitate to employ their agile hands.
Moments later, marks of each other were left on their necks.
But Nangong Qianyu seemed unsatisfied with this outcome. She was preparing to use her hands to tear off the opponent's battle robes and initiate a new round of offense.
However, just as she was about to unleash a devastating attack, a pair of strong, firm hands suddenly stopped her.
"This is not a suitable battlefield for us!"
At this moment, a hoarse, deep voice entered her ears.
Upon hearing this, Nangong Qianyu seemed to awaken from a dream and halted her actions of disarming Ye Ming.
Clarity returned to her eyes.
"How about we have another round when we get home?" Ye Ming's eyes were slightly red, but he maintained his composure.
After all, they were still in a private room.
At this time, Nangong Qianyu was already drenched in sweat. The water stains on her originally elegant dress had been submerged by her fervor.
Now, her entire dress clung tightly to her body, creating a more intense and spectacular visual impact.
But fortunately, Ye Ming, with his utmost reason, restrained his most primal desires.
Nangong Qianyu looked at the lipstick marks on Ye Ming's face, which momentarily brought back the memory of their recent frenzy. At this thought, a few more shades of allure were added to her already flushed cheeks.
"Okay!"
She lowered her head and answered Ye Ming's question in a voice barely above a whisper.
Nangong Qianyu's answer almost caused Ye Ming to lose control again.
"Ahem!" Looking at the beautiful woman still straddling him, Ye Ming said through gritted teeth, "Perhaps, you could get down first!"
The reason he spoke with such trepidation was entirely due to his lingering excitement.
He was still energetic and his momentum had not diminished.
"Ah! I..."
It was better that Ye Ming hadn't reminded her. After he spoke, Nangong Qianyu felt a strange sensation. The intense impact in her heart almost made her sink further.
She slowly straightened her slender waist and stood up. At this moment, a feeling of wistful emptiness arose.
The moment Nangong Qianyu moved away, Ye Ming gasped. If not for his strong willpower, he might have "ascended" on the spot.
Looking at the wrinkled marks on his trousers, Ye Ming was bewildered as to how they had been caused.
But he did not know that Nangong Qianyu, at this moment, was looking down, not daring to meet his gaze. A few more rosy hues bloomed on her pretty face.
"Ye... Ye Ming, I... how do I get back!" she asked softly, still looking down.
It was no wonder Nangong Qianyu felt embarrassed, as her current state was certainly not presentable in public.
After all, her entire body was soaked.
"It's alright! I can send you straight back to the villa!"
Regarding this, Ye Ming had nothing to worry about.
"Send me back directly?" Nangong Qianyu looked up, her face filled with confusion.
"Don't forget, I am an immortal cultivator. Some of my abilities are beyond your imagination," Ye Ming said with a mysterious smile.
Just as he was about to display his skills, his phone suddenly rang.
"Wait a moment!"
Ye Ming picked up his phone and saw that it was Ji Hongying calling.
They did not try to hide it from Nangong Qianyu and answered the call.
"Lin Fengxuan wants to see me tonight!"
As soon as the call connected, Ji Hongying said in a slightly urgent tone.
Lin Fengxuan!
Upon hearing this name, Ye Ming's expression also turned grim.
This person!
From the first time Ye Ming saw him, he knew this person was not simple. Subsequent events had confirmed his suspicion.
"Where are you now?" Ye Ming asked.
"I'm at Drunken Red Dust!"
"Alright! Wait for me, I'll come find you shortly!"
Afterward, they hung up.
"What does Lin Fengxuan want with Ji Hongying at this time?" Ye Ming muttered to himself.
However, he had a feeling it would be related to him.
"Aren't you coming back with me?" At this moment, Nangong Qianyu spoke.
She did not, however, ask about the identity of the person he had just spoken to on the phone.
"Why don't you ask who that woman on the phone was?" Ye Ming looked at the young lady before him and said softly.
"Why should I ask such things?" Nangong Qianyu retorted.
"Uh!"
This time, Ye Ming was somewhat at a loss for words.
"Alright! If you have something to do, go ahead. I can get back by myself." Nangong Qianyu did not make things difficult for him.
She even said that she could "get back by herself."
What a considerate young lady!
Ye Ming looked at her, his heart filled with warmth from emotion.
He stepped forward and kissed Nangong Qianyu on the forehead, saying softly, "Silly girl, how could I let you go back alone?"
Nangong Qianyu remained silent.
"Didn't I say before that I could send you back directly? Look!"
At this, Ye Ming extended his right hand, fingers together, forming a knife-like shape.
"Open!"
Ye Ming slashed through the air with his right hand, accompanied by a flash of white light. In front of him, a black spatial rift appeared.
The rift was not large, only about two meters high, and less than a meter wide.
Simultaneously, on the other side.
In Nangong Qianyu's room at the Purple Cloud Mountain Villa, a black spatial rift identical to the one in Ye Ming's private room inexplicably appeared.
These two seemed to possess a mysterious connection.
"This... this is..." Nangong Qianyu covered her small mouth with her hand, her face filled with disbelief.
"This is called a spatial passage! If you step in here, when you pass through it, you will return to the Purple Cloud Mountain Villa," Ye Ming explained with a smile.
"Ah! This... this is too magical!" Nangong Qianyu was truly shocked.
Although she knew Ye Ming was incredibly powerful, such terrifying means were still beyond her comprehension.
"Alright, let me take you back first!"
With Nangong Qianyu's current understanding, such methods were impossible to explain.
"Oh! Okay... okay!"
Ye Ming took Nangong Qianyu's hand and walked directly towards the rift. During this process, Ye Ming could clearly feel Nangong Qianyu's small hand was somewhat cold, and she was gripping his tightly.
Clearly, passing through this rift was a significant challenge for her.
"It's alright!" Ye Ming patted her hand as a form of comfort.
Finally, as they stepped into the rift, Nangong Qianyu felt her vision go black. In that instant, she lost all sensation, as if she had been abandoned by the world.
A sense of fear and loneliness she had never experienced before almost broke her.
But fortunately, this state only lasted for two or three seconds before she saw a beam of light.
Then, she found herself standing in her room at the Purple Cloud Mountain Villa.
"We're back!"
A reassuring voice echoed in her ear.
Turning around, Nangong Qianyu directly hugged Ye Ming, burying her entire head in his chest. Tears welled up in her eyes.
No one knew what she had endured in those brief two to three seconds of solitude and unease.
"It's alright!"
Ye Ming held the frail girl in his arms and gently comforted her.
In fact, with his abilities, he could have spared Nangong Qianyu that ordeal.
But Ye Ming ultimately chose to let Nangong Qianyu experience it.
As for why he did this, perhaps only he knew.
One minute later.
Nangong Qianyu reluctantly broke free from Ye Ming's embrace.
"Don't forget, someone is still waiting for you!"
Nangong Qianyu had not forgotten the content of the phone call earlier.
"Okay!"
Ye Ming looked at this silly girl with great affection. He kissed her forehead again. Not only that, but he also whispered a secret into her ear that made Nangong Qianyu's heart flutter:
"Let's fight again when I get back!"
