Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Stirred Heart, Stirred Feelings

Mei Qingchen just held Su Muyao like this, not daring to move recklessly.

But she was like flower petals soaked in fragrant honey, so captivating that he felt he couldn’t hold back much longer.

However, now he had learned to respect her every thought.

So without her consent, he wouldn’t move.

At this moment, Su Muyao could feel Mei Qingchen’s unease. She reached out to hug him actively and whispered by his ear, "Alright, let’s form a contract."

When Mei Qingchen heard these words, he felt the deepest and most intense emotion in his heart surge like magma.

He no longer restrained himself, holding Su Muyao tightly, his lips descending with utmost tenderness and pity.

The moment he touched her, the instant he sensed her breath, Mei Qingchen’s body trembled fiercely, stirring a heartbeat, his eyes slightly burning.

He finally... finally waited for this day.

Afraid that Su Muyao would see his loss of composure, he gently covered her eyes with one hand so she couldn’t see his emotional expression.

Being blindfolded, Su Muyao’s other senses became more sensitive, "Qing Chen?"

"Wife, I’m here."

Just hearing his name called by her brought him such joy.

"Wife, is it alright if I cover your eyes?"

Mei Qingchen’s speech trembled huskily, a hint of broken pleading.

Su Muyao softened, unable to resist him, she whispered, "Alright."

Then Mei Qingchen placed the cloth he had prepared earlier over Su Muyao’s eyes.

He didn’t let her see the redness in his eyes.

The intense excitement almost burned his reason, but still, he wanted to give her the best experience, he wanted to please her.

Make her happy.

He hadn’t understood before, bringing her so much trouble; now he wanted to make up for it all, devoting all of himself to her.

His lips first landed on her fingers, treating her gently.

When his lips touched hers, Su Muyao’s fingers were tightly held by Mei Qingchen.

At this moment, Su Muyao’s cheeks blushed, in the moonlight, exhibiting a captivating and beautiful allure.

Mei Qingchen whispered, "Wife, so beautiful. Does wife enjoy my gentleness?"

Actually, he wasn’t naturally gentle, but he didn’t want to be foolish and reckless like before.

He wanted to consider her every feeling.

Su Muyao’s face blushed even more, but she could feel the warmth from Mei Qingchen, and his careful, pleasing gestures toward her.

Though her eyes were covered, she could feel it.

Ever since his awakening, he appeared celibate and sacred during the day, but it was now that he felt real to her.

Su Muyao also wanted to give him a sense of security, so she reached out and hugged Mei Qingchen, pulling him close to her, and then voluntarily kissed his lips.

Su Muyao directly embraced him, turning around to take the initiative.

"Boom..."

Mei Qingchen felt his mind go blank, a buzzing in his head, forgetting to breathe and react.

A surge of heat flowed through his veins.

Such a her, how could he not be moved?

He was deeply moved, emotionally stirred.

Later, Mei Qingchen understood something, felt the care of his wife, once again taking the lead, listening to her calling him, the emptiness in his heart being filled with affection.

His rationality turned to ashes, using all his strength to give her everything.

That night, it was as if he heard the sound of spring blossoming.

Finally, the cloth fell from Su Muyao’s eyes, and she saw the tear in Mei Qingchen’s eye corner, reaching out to gently wipe it away.

Even then, Mei Qingchen only asked her hoarsely, "Wife, are you happy?"

"Mm, happy."

"I’m happy too, wife. Nothing can ever separate us again. I belong to the wife now."

Su Muyao embraced him and responded, "Mm."

Originally she made him feel insecure, but now, he should feel secure, right?

Su Muyao’s eyes were misty, which Mei Qingchen gently kissed away, his gaze deeply loving.

Mei Qingchen kept holding Su Muyao tightly, his arm muscles pulsing with his heartbeat, conveying a robust sense of power, feeling no sleepiness.

Even just quietly holding his wife like this, he felt at ease.

At this moment, although Su Muyao rested with her eyes closed, she wasn’t asleep, waiting for the Space System’s voice.

After forming a contract with Mei Qingchen, there surely would be a reward from the system.

And then, Su Muyao’s mind was filled with the system’s cheerful voice, "Congratulations Host, you’ve gained the ability of Time Reversal."

"Time Reversal?"

Upon hearing this term, Su Muyao got somewhat excited.

This ability was exactly what she needed.

Su Muyao asked, "Can I directly see events from past times?"

The system spoke, "You cannot directly see; Host needs to use spiritual power to communicate with plants, viewing past events through the plant’s perspective."

"However, this method easily consumes spiritual power. The further back in time you go, the more spiritual power is expended."

"Based on the detection, Host’s current spiritual power level is only Level 2, so Host needs to focus on enhancing your spiritual power level."

Su Muyao concentrated and said, "How do I enhance my spiritual power level?"

Her spiritual power seemed unchanged for a while; it felt like an innate gift that couldn’t be cultivated like the Spiritual Power Ability.

The system explained, "Host can eat the meat of the Spiritual beasts and consume the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures that enhance the Spiritual system, which would improve your spiritual power."

"However, the Mortal Beast Continent’s spiritual energy is sparse, making the growth of spirit treasure medicinal materials rare; perhaps the Unknown Zone of Cang Beast Continent has ample spirit treasure medicinal materials."

Su Muyao spoke, "After resolving the issues here, I definitely want to explore the Unknown Zone."

Her parents and grandfather should be there; she wants to find them.

Yet now, she also needed to resolve matters at Beast Emperor City.

At this moment, Su Muyao was too excited to sleep, eager to try it; but Mei Qingchen held her tightly, and she couldn’t move.

She couldn’t bear to break free from him, or else he would feel insecure again.

"System, if I take Mei Qingchen outside and use the Time Reversal ability, can he see as well?"

Su Muyao trusts her Beast husbands, not planning to hide anything.

The system replied, "With Host’s current spiritual power, only Host can use spiritual power to communicate with plants, viewing past events alone. If Host wants those around to see as well, after enhancing spiritual power, you can share the Time Reversal scenes with them, which will allow them to see clearly."

Thus, Su Muyao understood.

...

After a peaceful night’s sleep, the next morning, Su Muyao got up from Mei Qingchen’s embrace, with Mei Qingchen assisting her in freshening up.

At this moment, Su Muyao was hurriedly focused on nothing else, quickly heading to her father’s former study after washing up.

She searched for plants, but her father’s study had none; fortunately, there was a locust tree in the yard.

Per the system’s instructions, she placed her hand on the trunk, injected spiritual power, and chose several time frames, through the tree’s perspective, locating a scene of her father meeting with someone.

One scene was at night, and a person covered entirely in a cloak entered the study.

Through the tree’s perspective, Su Muyao saw the person enter the study and remove their cloak hat.

Seeing the person’s face, Su Muyao’s pupils constricted.
