Qin Dongxue fell into the water with a splash, the water instantly engulfing her waist. Fortunately, she wore a white chiffon dress which released air within slowly. One half of her skirt fluttered, which kept Qin Dongxue afloat.
The white dress spread open gracefully on the surface of the water, like a beautiful lotus, and Qin Dongxue's seductive body bobbed up and down with the waves.
Ling Yun looked on happily ten meters away and was about to give some praise when he realized something was wrong. Qin Dongxue's usual arrogance was replaced with panic!
Aunty can't swim? You can't be serious!
Qin Dongxue didn't let go of the longsword in her hand, and her dress was now weighed down by the water. The waves raged and hit her body squarely, causing her to lose her balance!
"Splash!"
"Help me! Guh…" Qin Dongxue only managed to get one sentence out before choking on the salty and bitter seawater. She struggled against the waves swallowing her whole!
She really doesn't know how to swim! Ling Yun concluded after hearing her cry for help. He swam to where she dropped and dove deep into the sea!
Ling Yun kept his eyes open; the darkness was no barrier to his vision, and he immediately spotted the rapidly sinking Qin Dongxue.
Sigh, isn't it just a sword? She's not willing to let go of it even at a time like this!
Ling Yun wanted to burst out laughing at the sight but instead doubled his speed towards Qin Dongxue.
The strong undercurrents scared Qin Dongxue. She was about seven to eight meters below the surface of the seawater, her long black hair and white dress mingling in the water with a fluid beauty.
Qin Dongxue's hysteria only sought to sink her faster. She had choked on another seven to eight mouthfuls of water in a matter of seconds.
People who didn't possess the skill of swimming had a natural fear of water. Moreover, Qin Dongxue's True Qi had been depleted, so she was no more than a normal human at this point.
Ling Yun had a natural flair in water. He moved around like a fish and caught up to Qin Dongxue in no time. His strong arms caught Qin Dongxue's delicate body, and he kicked his legs forcefully, propelling them upwards to the surface.
The veil that Qin Dongxue used to cover her face had long been swept away by the currents. She became terribly alarmed, shut her beautiful eyes tightly, and struggled in Ling Yun's arms.
Ling Yun had his eyes open the entire time, admiring Qin Dongxue's beauty and noticing that Qin Dongxue was drowning.
Ling Yun trembled in fear at the sight. His mother would kill him if Aunty were to choke to death!
Moreover, a beautiful Xiantian Realm Level Three master drowning in the sea would definitely become a joke!
Ling Yun couldn't care less, he had to save her. He twisted and turned his body flexibly and came face to face with Qin Dongxue.
Ling Yun looked at Qin Dongxue's beautiful and scared face and smacked his lips right onto Qin Dongxue's lips!
His legs kept kicking to continue their ascent.
"Ugh!" Qin Dongxue opened her eyes as she felt something hot pressing against her lips.
Fairy Qin struggled even more intensely as she realized what was happening!
Ling Yun's left arm clung tightly onto Qin Dongxue's waist as his right hand and feet continued their work. His clear and bright eyes stared right back at Qin Dongxue's frightened eyes. There was no trace of evil intention reflected in his pupils.
Ling Yun immediately expelled air from his mouth into Qin Dongxue's after she swallowed the seawater in her mouth subconsciously.
Their upper bodies were pressed together, their lips interlocked as they floated upwards. They emerged four seconds later!
Ling Yun pulled back his lips from Qin Dongxue immediately and clarified his intentions. "Aunty, that was only to save you, there is no other meaning to it!"
Qin Dongxue was still unnerved. She gasped hungrily for air, oblivious to the fact that their bodies were close together. Her towering chest bobbed up and down every time she inhaled, inviting an unintended reaction from Ling Yun's body.
Ling Yun pulled himself away from Qin Dongxue. "Aunty, all is well now. I'll bring you on shore," he said apologetically.
Qin Dongxue bit her lip and lifted her left hand after remembering the embarrassing scene.
Ling Yun knew Qin Dongxue must be angry. He kept himself afloat, left hand still holding onto Qin Dongxue's waist as he stared straight at her, waiting for that hand to land on his face.
Qin Dongxue tried several times to slam that hand down, but she didn't manage to land it on Ling Yun.
Her precious first kiss of twenty-seven years was stolen by this rascal, yet she couldn't do anything to him! Her heart turned bitter.
Qin Dongxue bit her lip lightly. She suddenly felt that it was indecent of them to be floating around like that and said in a cold voice, "What are you doing, head up to shore now!"
Ling Yun smiled inwardly. He knew that Aunty didn't have the heart to hit him. "I'm on it, it's just that we are progressing very slowly since we are facing each other," Ling Yun said cheekily.
"How can we move faster then?" Qin Dongxue grunted.
Ling Yun wiped the seawater off his face and smiled at Fairy Qin. "We have to lie horizontally so that there is less resistance from the sea…"
Qin Dongxue blushed as she thought of the action suggested by Ling Yun. "Hurry up then, don't you dare touch places you're not supposed to! Rascal, I'll deal with you onshore!"
"As you wish!" Ling Yun beamed, his left hand holding onto Qin Dongxue's waist, floating her on the surface of the water as he did the same. His right hand acted as an oar, bringing them to shore.
The material of Qin Dongxue's dress was of high quality. It was completely soaked and stuck tightly onto her snow white skin. The fine and smooth texture felt otherworldly.
The distance was no feat to Ling Yun. His feet stepped into the sand in ten seconds, and the water level descended to seven or eight meters to his waist after another seven to eight meters.
Ling Yun put Qin Dongxue down gently and helped her along the walk to the shore.
"That's enough, let go of me!"
With the water level only reaching their knees, Qin Dongxue gently let go of Ling Yun's arm and walked along silently.
Ling Yun lagged behind, dumbfounded by Qin Dongxue's appearance!
Her body was drenched, the white chiffon wrapped tightly around her body. Her perfect figure came into full view, almost eliciting a nosebleed from Ling Yun.
Qin Dongxue took seven to eight more steps. She only managed to calm down when her feet touched dry sand.
"Why are you not coming? Aunty won't really hit you!" Qin Dongxue turned around and asked when she realized that Ling Yun wasn't beside her.
Qin Dongxue knew that Ling Yun only had the best intentions when he did what he did. She could see it from his clear eyes.
"Ah!"
Qin Dongxue noticed Ling Yun's gaze and realized that apart from this thin veil, she was no different from being naked!
Color drained from her face before being replaced with a deep shade of red. She came to Ling Yun in an instant and kicked him more than ten meters into the sea!
"Don't you dare take another peek!"
Qin Dongxue warned before heading into the woods more than four hundred meters away!
That was so embarrassing! Ashamed and anxious, Qin Dongxue stomped her foot, her face as red as a beetroot.
Qin Dongxue looked around and observed her surroundings carefully. Satisfied with the privacy, she quietly took off her dress and wrung the sea water out before putting it back on, covering her beautiful body.
Next, she tidied her long hair, which was dripping seawater, so that it no longer stuck to her body.
It's still showing off my curves, what am I to do? Qin Dongxue sighed.
Sigh… this is only a temporary measure. It was such an embarrassing day!
Qin Dongxue walked out of the woods only once she was satisfied with her appearance.
Qin Dongxue could see Ling Yun dressed decently from a distance. His back was facing her as he sat on the clean beach. He had one hand on the floor and stared into the distant sea, his thoughts a mystery to her.
"Come here, you rascal!"
