Chapter 11: Technique and Teasing?!

Chapter 11: Technique and Teasing?!

*swoosh* In the night, with a crack in space Zhao Tian appeared inside the space and saw Xia Shenyi doing something on the ground outside of her house.

Sensing Zhao Tian's presence, Xia Shenyi turned around and smiled "You are finally here brat." Zhao Tian walked near her and asked curiously "What are you doing Shenyi?"

Xia Shenyi said, "I checked some artifacts in the warehouse and found some things, so I thought I could use them to speed up your cultivation."

"This is an array that I have placed here. It can absorb the astral energy surrounding the space and concentrate them into one place."

"Oh, that's amazing..." Zhao Tian mused listening to her. Xia Shenyi giggled "I know, right? And Tian give me one divine astral stone."

Zhao Tian raised his hand and a divine astral stone appeared in his palm. Xia Shenyi took the astral stone in her hand and it floated itself reaching the core of the array.

"And now with this, your cultivation speed would be even faster."

A faint smile played on Zhao Tian's lips as he gazed at Xia Shenyi "Thank you, Shenyi." Xia Shenyi smiled back "Now then, accept me as your master."

"Huh? Master?" Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow. Xia Shenyi grinned with a nod "Of course, because I am helping and teaching you cultivation. You should call me Master, my disciple. Hehe..."

Zhao Tian gently extended his hand and the golden tattoo appeared on his wrist "See this? This means I am the master of this artifact and you are living in my artifact... Did I ask you for any rent?"

H-Huh? Xia Shenyi was dumbfounded hearing this. Zhao Tian continued "Technically speaking you should call me Master because you have a black tattoo which means you are under me."

"Oi, that's racism you know?" Zhao Tian just nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders hearing her remark.

A sigh left her lips "I was just teasing you, you don't need to call me Master or anything." Zhao Tian chuckled seeing her exasperated sigh and asked "What about my cultivation technique, Shenyi?"

Xia Shenyi frowned her eyebrows in thought "Mostly cultivators choose cultivation techniques based on their elemental affinity but I don't know what is your elemental affinity."

"Isn't there a way to find it?" Zhao Tian asked and Xia Shenyi nodded "Normally they use Affinity Orb and I searched for that in the pile of artifacts but it is not there."

"So I chose a body cultivation technique for you."

"Body cultivation?" Zhao Tian asked and Xia Shenyi replied with a nod "En. You said you have great physical strength, so I thought of enhancing it even more. With that even if the opponent used other cultivation techniques, your body alone is enough to withstand that."

Zhao Tian narrowed his eyes. A body cultivation technique? True it suits the current him and he knows some martial arts.. so in close combat he could win. This technique could serve as a foundation for his future endeavors, as he could potentially learn and master various other cultivation techniques in the future.

"Well, it's okay I guess." Seeing him nod "Wait a minute." Xia Shenyi spoke and entered her home and she came back with some scrolls and books in her hands.

"These are some good low-level body techniques I found in the warehouse." Xia Shenyi Spoek and Zhao Tian looked at her blankly "Why low-level techniques? Give me a better one."

"Huh? Don't overestimate yourself brat. To learn a high-level cultivation technique you need to have a deep and profound understanding of the astral energy and its flow."

"It would take years for you to learn that. Even if you are an Honoured One... it is impossible. So first cultivate through the Transient realms with this cultivation technique."

Zhao Tian smiled "What? You are the one who said it's okay for you to marry me..." His voice was gentle and filled with affection as he lovingly tucked a strand of her luscious black hair behind her ear.

Xia Shenyi couldn't help but shudder as she felt his fingers tenderly caressing her waist and she spoke in a meek voice averting her gaze. "I-I just said that on a whim... so" she stammered, feeling her face burn even brighter, her embarrassment intensifying.

Zhao Tian was thoroughly enjoying her reaction, 'It is always fun to tease back bold women like her...'

"On a whim? I thought you were pretty serious about that?" his fingers softly caressing her delicate cheek. "You are really so beautiful, Shenyi..." he spoke, and hearing his compliment Xia Shenyi looked away embarrassed.

"Brat, let me go..." Xia Shenyi uttered in a low voice. "Hm... I thought you were more powerful than me, so if you want you can push me..." he said bringing his face even closer to her, their chest colliding with each other.

Xia Shenyi's hold on his shoulder grew firmer, her fingers tightly grasping onto his t-shirt. Zhao Tian. gently clasped her chin and tilted his head planting a sweet kiss on her neck. *chu*

*gik* Xia Shenyi's body stiffened feeling the soft touch of his lips on her neck "T-Tian.. you are..." Zhao Tian retracted his lips and whispered in her ear "What? Do you not like it, if it was me?"

Xia Shenyi's heart trembled in nervousness and she shook her head "It's not like that, Tian..." Zhao Tian's eyes softened and he tenderly kissed her cheek. "Then like what?"

Xia Shenyi closed her eyes, relishing the gentle touch of his lips against her cheek and her hands loosened from his shoulder coming down, hugging him back in a warm embrace.

'Does he really intend to make me his woman?' she wondered silently within the depths of her heart. With a gentle touch, she affectionately ran her fingers through his soft, snowy hair "Brat, why are you hasty..."

Zhao Tian couldn't help but let out a hearty chuckle, "I am not hasty... and I know feelings are to be nurtured. I just wanted to tease you... haha."

Huh? Xia Shenyi lightly retracted the hug and hit his shoulder "Brat, you were just teasing me? You kissed me for a tease?"

Zhao Tian chuckled even more and Xia Shenyi got angered seeing this. She thought for a second he seriously wanted her to be his woman. "You are the worst." she retorted.

Zhao Tian stopped laughing and spoke with a soft smile "I am not that kind of scum. I am really attracted to you and I don't mind you being my wife. We can take things slow..."

Xia Shenyi's cheeks turned a rosy shade as she heard his words, causing her heart to flutter and skip a beat while being held in his embrace but she snorted hiding her true feelings, and looked away "I don't like you."

Zhao Tian withdrew his hand from her waist "Oh? You don't like me? Sorry, I touched you..." he said and turned back looking at the books on the shelf.

Wha- Xia Shenyi was dumbfounded seeing his act... Aren't you supposed to persuade me at this moment? "You..." she yelled and hugged him from behind. She opened her pink lips revealing her teeth as she sunk them deep into his neck, leaving a mark on his skin, an act of desperation and perhaps even a cry for attention.

Zhao Tian was startled by the sudden ache "What are you doing?" Xia Shenyi retracted her mouth and licked her lips "Hehe, your skin is tasty... Isn't this what they call a love bite? fufu"

-_- Zhao Tian wiped away the traces of saliva lingering on his neck and there was clearly a mark left on his neck. 'How am I supposed to explain this love bite to my crazy obsessed sister tomorrow?'

Xia Shenyi grinned "Come on, let's find a technique for you."
