Chapter 1323: Chapter 1323
Among his busy days, Du You often took the two sisters to the Aalan Realm, partly to understand the situation there, and partly to meet with Elsa, as well as to refine his skills.
Though refining skills took more time now, it was still quick just to advance a single level. Without realizing it, their skills had been refined by a large margin and soon would be complete.
Next, he would continue to level up, but Du You wasn’t too eager at the moment.
When he saw Elsa again, years had passed on the other side, and Elsa had transformed from a little girl into a mature woman, sweet and juicy like a peach.
Her pure and alluring charm was simply irresistible. Du You worried he wouldn’t be able to control himself, for this girl was too clingy, and he had to find at least some excuse to avoid her in the end.
Meanwhile, things had finally settled down with the academy. After some time since the semester began, Li Mengyao and Xi Qianxue had also temporarily finished their tasks.
One day, Li Mengyao came looking for him with a strange look in her eyes. "Your strength, it’s been improving incredibly fast."
"Ha-ha, I’m in a hurry, aren’t I? Without strength, I always feel like there’s not enough time."
"Forget it, it’s beneficial for you to advance quickly in your situation." Others might not know, but they were well aware of what Du You had done. The embarrassing defeat of that subdivision of the Dark Night Mercenary Group, they could find it out eventually.
Perhaps the Dark Night Mercenary Group could hide it temporarily, but there were too many witnesses at that time, and it wouldn’t stay hidden for long. During this time, all the large forces knew what had happened that day. The reputation of the Dark Night Mercenary Group had fallen, and others began to stir.
"Here, this is a congratulatory gift from the family for you." Du You had reached the sixth tier, which changed his status. Even the Li Family now had to treat Du You as an equal, for his potential was simply too great.
At the same time, the Li Family had completely let go of the issue with Li Mengyao and Du You, not objecting at all. This was the change brought about by strength.
"This is too valuable." Du You found a set of three: blueprints for the Lord’s Mansion, the Skill Hall, and a Mage Tower. These items were exceptionally precious to anyone who saw them.
"At first, they wanted to give you other things too, but I said you didn’t need them, so in the end, it’s just this."
Were they trying to win him over? Du You understood their intentions. After a thought, he nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll accept it."
Seeing Du You accept the gift, Li Mengyao’s face, initially complex, suddenly shone with a smile, leaving Du You puzzled. "Alright, I’ve delivered the gift, I’ve got some things to take care of, so I’m leaving now."
Du You was taken aback. "Aren’t you staying for dinner?" Li Mengyao seemed to have no intention of staying.
Li Mengyao blushed slightly. "No, there’s too much to do in my lands. I never knew how troublesome it could be to develop a territory." She’d been busy with the student council recently and had set aside her territorial affairs.
Her territory wasn’t like Xi Qianxue’s, which had the help of the academy and had merged with the academy’s lands to control the entire realm, reaching the world level limit at once, with hardly anything to do afterward.
Du You nodded understandingly, recognizing the numerous troubles in constructing one’s own domain.
After sending Li Mengyao off, to his surprise, Xi Qianxue also showed up that afternoon. The two weren’t together, it seemed.
"Here, this is your congratulatory gift from the family. Li Mengyao must have already delivered hers, right?" Xi Qianxue came by in the evening, obviously aware of Li Mengyao’s visit, which Du You found amusing. If it wasn’t for their utterly different natures, he might have thought they shared telepathy like the sisters.
"The same thing, huh? Okay, I’ll accept it." Since he’d already accepted one set, accepting a second made little difference.
Du You figured he’d find a way to compensate them both when the opportunity arose.
Xi Qianxue remained silent, suddenly sitting down beside Du You, her face expressionless as she stared ahead. The television was still on, but he couldn’t tell what it was playing as Xi Qianxue had drawn his attention.
His gaze kept drifting to her, and she remained quiet, the atmosphere gradually becoming more suggestive.
Sometime later, the sisters stood up and silently left without Du You noticing, and the robots and Biochemical Men didn’t come to disturb them either. Outside, the sky slowly darkened, yet neither of them said anything about turning on the light.
After an uncertain amount of time, Du You turned his head to look at Xi Qianxue’s profile, never before noticing how beautiful she was. Or perhaps Xi Qianxue had always been beautiful, and he had simply never taken the time to appreciate it.
The sense of urgency in his heart disappeared with the rising of his strength, and the distance between them silently dissipated. The suppressed emotions seemed to burst forth especially passionately today.
Xi Qianxue’s cheeks were slightly flushed, but in the dim light, it was hard to tell. Unconsciously, she leaned a bit closer to Du You, appearing as though she was resting in his arms without actually touching.
Du You’s hand, unknown when, slowly reached out, encircling Xi Qianxue’s slender waist.
Her reaction was unexpected to Du You. Xi Qianxue, already very close, suddenly went limp as if she had no strength left, truly resting in his arms.
Her eyes had closed at some point, her head turned toward him, lips slightly parted. Fresh chapters posted on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩
With her inviting stance, Du You could no longer hold back. In the Undead World, due to unfavorable conditions, the sisters had never allowed Du You to touch them, and it had been over a year.
The repressed fervor seemed to be losing control. Du You leaned down, and as Xi Qianxue felt his breath, she shivered slightly but didn’t resist at all.
Finally, the two came together, breaking through the last barrier between them. The temperature rose, and the situation became increasingly charged. When they parted, their eyes met, seeing only each other.
Unable to resist, Du You reached out to embrace the stunning beauty before him, and step by step, they headed to the upstairs room.
After the two disappeared, a door at the back opened, revealing two silhouettes—Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi.
"Sister, is it really okay for us to do this, letting them be together? What will become of us?"
"Don’t worry, with the master’s personality, we all have the same place in his heart. Besides, we’re not weak now; even without a backer, we can stand on our own."
