Against Heaven's Will

Five small bits exploded simultaneously, causing the ghost to shiver as the shockwave struck him. It seemed like the Soul was the main target of this Art, immobilizing the enemy.

"Finally!" Xuefeng exclaimed seeing the Ghost finally stop his movements. "It seems the placement of my Soul parts also has an impact on the damage."

He swiftly hopped forward and kicked at the ghost, crushing his skull. Once his opponent died, the simulation reset once again, transporting Xuefeng into his original position. He didn’t continue right away as he tried hundreds of times already. After succeeding once, he deserved a short break.

"Ming! How was it? Is that passable?" Xuefeng called out, looking for praise but he was replied with silence. "Ling, can you hear me?"

His second Fate Spirit wifey seemed more reliable as she responded right away.

"Oh, are you done?" Ling questioned.

"Yeah, I already executed the Art successfully but Ming doesn’t respond," Xuefeng complained, trying not to pout but Ling quickly cleared his doubts.

"It is because she is not here anymore," Ling informed. "Wait a second."

In a blink, the space around him began changing and he returned back to the Inn’s room. Aside from him and Ling who sat in front of him, there was no one else in the room.

"Ming and Tianshi went out to test Tianshi’s new ability while I stayed behind with you," Ling explained happily and slowly climbed on his body, pushing him down on the bed. "Congratulations on learning your second Forbidden Art~"

Ling leaned for a kiss with her arms wrapped around his shoulders when Xuefeng stopped her, holding onto her face.

"Wait, what time is it? I can see it’s still bright. Shouldn’t it be night right now?" Xuefeng questioned confused. "Don’t tell me it is already morning?"

Ling brightened, pursing her lips. "Silly, of course, it is. You were training the whole night and since you weren’t done, Ming decided to take Tianshi out first. The tournament starts at noon, so we are meant to meet them near the entrance before that time."

"Oof! What are we waiting for then? I don’t want to leave those two alone," Xuefeng called out hurriedly, giving Ling a quick kiss before trying to lift them up but Ling didn’t let him.

"No!" Ling shouted in disapproval, pushing him to the bed against his will. Her soft fingers gripped onto his white hair as she dove for a kiss, using her body weight to pin him down.

She acted like a starved kid who didn’t see food for days, succumbing her teeth into the freshly baked chicken. Her shapely lips melted into his own multiple times till the raw and rough power of her tongue pushed inside his mouth, slamming and sinking deep. It has been a while since she attacked him with such intense passion.

Even if he could stop her, he couldn’t. The sheer desperation in her actions caused his body to weaken. Even if he cultivated, he stopped asking Ling to use her body but instead connected with Tianshi, wanting to Dual Cultivate and save time. Ling suddenly became just an assistant, standing on the side while watching Xuefeng who used to be only hers.

"Baby... I’m sorry..." Xuefeng muttered as he broke the kiss, realizing where Ling’s actions came from.

In response, she slid her hand on his stomach and gripped his crotch while glaring at him. She was clearly pouting and definitely had the reasons to.

"Can you see this?" Ling asked as she raised her left hand, showing the golden ring on her ring finger. "I’m your wife. You are mine. Say it."

"I’m yours," Xuefeng repeated after her, watching the beauty in front of his eyes. Their hair matched in color, her own long enough to cover her chest whole. Her clean white dress covered her from neck to her feet but he knew it would soon be gone, revealing her slim body that only he could touch and see.

As she displayed her ownership, he couldn’t help but reach out and hold her hand, leaning up to kiss it gently.

"I gave it to you because you are my wife, forever and ever," Xuefeng spoke, caressing her fingers with care. He could see her lips wanted to curve into a smile but she resisted her urge.

Hu...

In exchange, she gripped his erection firmly, causing him to breathe out hot air. Even when she was mad, her cheeks teased with cuteness and eyes tormented with an alluring gaze. He wanted nothing more than to squeeze her body tight and beg for forgiveness.

"Then why have you been neglecting me lately? Wasn’t I a good girl? I even helped you Cultivate and you didn’t even thank me... You shouldn’t take my love for granted..." Ling complained as she pouted yet again. "I know we are busy now, but a special caress, a nibble on my lips, or even an impulse hug would be enough..."

"I’m sowwie..." Xuefeng apologized cutely, pulling himself up to embrace her but she stopped him, pushing on his chest.

"No, you stay right there. You deserve a punishment—" Ling’s words got cut off as Xuefeng grabbed her wrist and drew the obstruction away, crushing their chests together.

Ba-dum, ba-dum!

Her heartbeat resounded in his mind, more clear and louder the harder he squeezed, sinking his face into her hair. He was instantly hit with the smell of roses she loved so much, bringing old memories of their love spurting from a kiss.

"I’m sorry baby... I have been a bad hubby..." Xuefeng whispered, his fingers arched and pulsing up and down on her back. "Can you forgive me...?"

"No..." Ling replied hurriedly, yet her voice quivered and arm embraced him on instinct. "You don’t love me anymore..."
