CH 192

Ten years later

“Zhanye that idiot! Idiot! Heng… we obviously made a promise, I broke through the third layer of fusion phase, {I guess it’s a step of practicing Taoism}, now can’t even see a shadow, so annoying, annoying!…” silver hair hanging down loosely, a youngster wearing simple clothes was clutching a soft quilt. He resolutely threw the quilt on the bed, in his heart he was exactly thinking that at once he should give that hateful man a vicious beating.

Heng, it was better to fully beat his head… right, that’s right.

“Hehe, tell me who is that idiot” a low laughter unexpectedly came in, along with a tall and thin shadow of a human figure dropping from somewhere. Swift in action, a man panting with rage fell down on the bed. Tepid lips went closer and blocked those soft sweet red lips, and gave the other side a scorching kiss {(o^^o)}.

“Wu… go… go away!… swind… swindler!” a pair of hands refused the strong chest, Huo Zaiyuan wanted to avoid the other one’s kisses, but still couldn’t jump away, because he was being rashly attacked by the other person’s enclosure strategy.

The refusing hands gradually hugged the other person tightly, the two lips were glued to each other, they lingered together. Not seeing for two months, the heart was stuffed full with the memories of the other person… obviously they made an appointment, but the other person has been late for quite a few days, it would be a wonder if he didn’t get angry.

“Darling, when did I ever deceived you?” releasing those sweet red lips, Long Zhanye softly licked the remaining sweetness on his lips, he narrowed his eyes and then looked at the other one’s very red face, under his body.

“You!… you clearly said that if I broke through the third layer of fusion phase within two months, you would come back and find me… now it has been two months and ten days already…” ruthlessly staring at the man on top of him, Huo Zaiyuan raised his hand to poke on the other side’s chest. Even though in his heart he was very angry, but he couldn’t stand to have a heavy hand {to beat?}.

Reaching his hand to hold the slim waistline, Long Zhanye suddenly turned his body over, letting Huo Zaiyuan lie on his own body. He caressed his soft silver hair, and then said: “You used ten years of time to break through the third layer {of fusion phase}, regarding common cultivators, it’s extraordinarily quick. If other people knew, it will certainly cause unnecessary troubles, ai… that’s why I returned to the Evil Dragon Mountain, and excavated Spiritual Rocks under the Spiritual Pond to forge a bracelet for you. This bracelet is able to confine you Spiritual Power, preserving you on the consacrate initial stage of ranking”

About the bracelet that Huo Zaiyuan was wearing now, the workmanship looked rough, but if one examined carefully, one would unexpectedly find it exquisite: the material was ancient brown, the texture moist and smooth… Huo Zaiyuan truly liked it.

When he first entered the Taoist Sect, he was still a small bean, couldn’t understand anything. How his senior brother and senior uncle taught him to cultivate, was how he cultivated. After practicing and practicing, he noticed that among the disciples who entered the Taoist Sect in the same period, his capability was the most outstanding, but at that moment he was already more than ten years old, so he started to understand. In addition, with the dialogues he had with Long Zhanye, little by little he became aware that he was different from the other common Taoist disciples.

……

Therefore, when cultivating, he was really restrained, not seeking for too much fame and matching with the other disciples’ cultivation speed. Other people were cultivating desperately, hoping that they would still get stronger by a tad bit, Huo Zaiyuan instead was refraining himself desperately, not letting his cultivation advance too quickly.

So ten years went by, the other contemporary disciples were still at the second layer of circling picture, as for him he suddenly was at the third layer of fusion phase. If he still went on this way, he would have to continuously cover it up, and Long Zhanye’s bracelet very clearly arrived in time.

“Heng, this time I will forgive you then” Huo Zaiyuan leaned on those familiar arms, holding tightly Long Zhanye’s waist: “Zhanye, half a month ago I passed the Taoist test/exam, now I already became a Taoist basic disciple and have my own bedroom… can you or not…”

The Taoist Sect stipulated that, the new disciples had to stay in the same room with a total of twenty people, therefore in those ten years’ innumerable nights, he has secretly left the bedroom in the middle of the night to have a ‘lovers’ midnight rendezvous’ with Long Zhanye. After passing the test half a month ago, he became a Taoist basic disciple and obtained his own bedroom. Obviously this bedroom’s conditions weren’t good at all, but he didn’t care about it.

“I can. If at that time that group of small radish wasn’t in the way, I would hate to be unable to stick with you day and night” Long Zhanye kissed on Huo Zaiyuan’s face. This wasn’t a lie. Although it was kind of exciting to play ‘lovers’ midnight rendezvous’, but towards Huo Zaiyuan, he hated to be unable to bind him by his side all the time, keeping him close to him.

“Hehe” hearing Long Zhanye’s words, it caused Huo Zaiyuan to smile, he pinched his face and got closer for a kiss: “Zhanye, I dreamt again!”

Since after entering in the Taoist Sect and started practicing, whenever he advanced by a layer, he would have a dream. In the dream sometimes emerged a silver haired man who had the demeanor of a transcendent being {note 1}, and other times a black haired man wearing knitted clothes, his hand was holding a youngster with a ‘Dao’ mark/sign… From Long Zhanye’s mouth, he learned many things about those two people, and that they were all related to him. In the dreams he was getting to see everything he has forgotten.

{note 1: the author wrote 道骨仙风 which doesn’t make sense, I guess she wanted to use this idiom 仙风道骨 but somehow exchanged the two pairs of characters}

“En, which dream did you have this time?”

“Not mine, è!… Zhanye’s dream. I saw that you were wearing very strange clothes, and then you rushed out from a small alley. Behind you there were many many monsters… è! Quite handsome” recalling his dream, Huo Zaiyuan’s face slightly reddened.

“That was in the Human Boundary, the first time we met {I don’t remember how they met}” thinking of that time, Long Zhanye slightly smirked, a glint flashed in his gentle and soft eyes: “The first time I met you, you looked like a startled kitty, puffing up his fur and guarding against me”

Looking at Long Zhanye’s gentle and soft eyes, Huo Zaiyuan’s heart couldn’t help but feel some sourness, even though he knew that the person Long Zhanye was talking about was himself, he couldn’t help but being jealous/envious {quack!}. Handsome black eyes slightly narrowed, he abruptly made Long Zhanye fall down on the bed, and then seriously looked at him.

“È… what’s going on?”

“That… in the end you like the past me or my current self!” Huo Zaiyuan didn’t know how to hide things. In front of Long Zhanye, if he had something to say then he would say it, thus whatever he thought in his heart, he would say it without the slightest hesitation and never felt bashful.

Long Zhanye was dumbfounded by this question, he opened his eyes wide and then a laugh gushed out: “Hehe, little thing, you are jealous!”

Looking at his smiley face, Huo Zaiyuan’s face turned crimson. He clenched his hands and ferociously gave him some fists: “I… I am jealous! How… what!, you dare to have this idea!!”

“No no, I don’t dare to!!” seeing that not only Huo Zaiyuan’s face was enraged, but even his eyes were red, Long Zhanye took him closer, his tepid tongue licked on those soft and sweet red lips and then gave him a kiss: “Little fool, how can you be jealous of yourself, no matter if it was Tianqi, or the past Huo Zaiyuan or the one in my heart, you have always been an unvarying existence”

Hearing his tender speech, Huo Zaiyuan’s heart moved, he threw himself in his arms and hugged him tightly: “I always believed that… you liked me because previously I was Tianqi or that past Huo Zaiyuan”

“What’s the difference? You are you, isn’t it right…”

“But every time I see you thinking of the past me, here it doesn’t feel well” Huo Zaiyuan indicated his chest, and then softly said: “Sometimes I think that, if I didn’t remember the past things, in that case… wouldn’t you not like me…”

Listening to Huo Zaiyuan’s words, Long Zhanye was slightly stupefied. He suddenly recalled that apparently from the beginning he has given the little one a big pressure, he sighed and then tightly hugged him: “Little fool, even though you wouldn’t remember, I would still like you. Although those memories were wonderful, but if you don’t want to remember, then it’s enough if I am the only one remembering… I wish to stay with you… so don’t pressure yourself”

“Zhanye…”

“Ze, if it wasn’t because your body needed to cultivate through the Taoist Sect gong {skill} method, I really can’t bear to not immediately throw you down… I will eat you clean, not letting you misunderstand anymore!!”

{Errr, my intuition says that Long Zhanye wants to papapa Huo Zaiyuan, but can’t}

Long Zhanye threw him on the bed and then fiercely kissed him.

[Already understood he is jealous!!]
