"What can I do for you?"
Austin asked the beautiful and elegant queen directly, staring right into her eyes.
Standing in the bamboo forest, the queen of the evil shadow race was in a traditional court dress. She looked like she was struggling with something deep inside her.
After a few seconds of silence, she took a deep breath and held her chin high. She then said, "Please help me."
Immediately, her beautiful cheeks began to turn red. She was very shy at that time.
'What's happening?' Austin thought, surprised by what he was seeing. Ever since he met the queen, she had always been cold and emotionless. Seeing her having this kind of reaction was entirely new to him.
Aside from that, she was asking for his help. 'Isn't she the queen of this region? What can I do that she cannot?' he thought, furrowing his eyebrows.
"No problem. As long as I have the ability to do whatever you want me to do, I will be of your service," he firmly replied though he felt confused.
The reason why he didn't even hesitate was because he had gotten along with the queen incredibly well during the party.
At this response, the queen's cheeks even became more flushed. It had taken all her courage to ask Austin for his help, and with his positive response, she couldn't help but feel relieved and thankful.
The queen decided to break the awkward silence with a question. "Have... have you been practicing the cultivation methods that have the masculine energy?
I'm sensing the energy in your body and it is... burning like a wildfire."
The queen lowered her head, as if embarrassed by her own question.
"Uhmmm... yes. You are right!"
Austin replied slowly. He was once again shocked as to why the queen would even ask him such a thing.
"Can you show me your energy?"
she then asked earnestly.
Austin found the request strange but he still complied and released his energy.
As he started releasing his vital energy, a blinding golden light began penetrating his bones, flesh, and blood vessels. Soon, the light could be seen coming from inside his body, as if wanting to escape. Austin looked glorious.
The golden light was a mark of someone who was cultivating the Golden Sun Scripture. Seeing how bright it was shining inside him, Austin could not help but be proud and confident.
"Oh wow! You truly have cultivated the prime masculinity formula!"
The queen was incomparably delighted when she saw this. It seemed like Austin and his prime masculinity had answered her prayers.
"I still don't know what kind of help you want from me,"
Austin suddenly asked.
The queen's face became redder than ever. Looking at her, Austin couldn't help but think how beautiful she looked. 'I kno
ueen," Austin addressed her, bowing. "How will I heal you?"
Austin asked.
"We'll get to that," she replied, smiling gently. "I just want you to know that whether you heal me successfully or not, I still greatly appreciate your help."
Her tone was devoid of any kind of humor. She bowed slightly to Austin to show her appreciation.
"Don't feel burdened by it. I am honored to do this for you,"
Austin replied.
"All right. Thank you very much. Let's begin."
She then began taking off her gorgeous dress as she rotated. A few seconds later, she was only wearing a suit of underwear. Austin was surprised at what was happening in front of him at that moment.
It was obvious that the queen had meticulously prepared for this ritual. Her underwear was black, which covered her modestly but accentuated her figure.
Even though she wasn't technically naked at that moment, her face became very red. She then took a deep breath, and jumped into the pool.
As soon as she did that, however, she began howling in pain.
The lavender water in the pool started boiling, as if it was heating by a stove. The room became even more filled with lavender mist.
Despite being in a lot of pain, the queen used the remaining strength of her to take off the last bit of clothing on her.
She was naked in the water.
She sat crossed-leg at the center of the pool. Her body was submerged, and so the only thing Austin could see was her head and her neck.
"Mr. Lin, please take off your clothes and jump into the pool as well,"
the queen ordered in a low voice. Her cheeks, however, were redder than they had ever been.
Maybe, it was her first time doing the ritual. She had never been naked while talking to a man. If it was not for her healing, she would never be naked in pool with a male stranger.
