I alone am the Honoured One! - Chapter 532

Chapter 532: A mature woman’s charm!
“Ahh… That woman.”

Xia Shenyi uttered with a thoughtful face as she continued patting Zhao Tian who was lying on her lap, her fingers dancing on his hair.

“I don’t remember much… but yeah, she did ask me to be her disciple, but I refused her. My master is more powerful than her and will protect me, so I joined her wing.”

Shi Yixian is sitting on the other end of the sofa with his legs on her lap as she slowly massaged his toes and feet.

Patting his hair, Xia Shenyi continued “Hm.. I remember, but her name is not actually Yao Jing and she is actually from a different star.”

“Apparently, the current Sect master, during her visit to a star, saved Jao Ying from there, and since then she has been with the sect.”

Zhao Tian was amused to hear this “I see… quite the backstory”

Xia Shenyi rolled her eyes “So she said the same story as Freya about the pendant.”

She leaned back thoughtfully, her fingers resuming their gentle play through his hair “Someone from the Astral Realm.. do you think it is the Maverick family?”

Zhao Tian’s expression grew serious as he considered it, giving a slight nod. “It would make sense. The artifact was originally created by the first Honored One, a Maverick… so yes, the Mavericks would certainly have records of it and know that the pendant has ties to them.”

“But somehow they lost it. Wars, the fall of empires, trades… for generations, it must have gone through so many hands and finally reached you, Shenyi.”

“As you tried to decipher the artifact, you got stuck into it… And when your Master attempted to publicize the pendant to find clues… it must have drawn the Mavericks’ attention.”

“They must have recognized it instantly and came back to reclaim what they consider theirs.”

“That’s likely,” she replied, tilting her head thoughtfully.

As they were chatting, Fei Lingxi walked to them with a cup of steaming cup of coffee in her hand “Master.”

Hearing her voice, Zhao Tian turned his head to look at Fei Lingxi and smiled faintly.

He pulled himself up to sit on the couch and she extended her hand giving him the coffee.

Her fingers brushed against his as he took the cup from her hand, her gaze softened and she slowly sat on his lap, though quite nervous that she was directly approaching him.

“Master.”

Zhao Tian let out a soft chuckle, his expression tender as he reached up to brush a stray strand of her hair away, tucking it behind her ear.

He leaned in, placing a gentle kiss on her cheek, which made her blush deepen even further as she leaned against his shoulder, her cheek warm against him.

Oh? Xia Shenyi and Shi Yixian were amused that Fei Lingxi is acting like a little girl in love.

HUH?

HUHHHHHHHH?

Meanwhile, Fei Ziyu who was standing on the kitchen doorstep was surprised to see her mom like this.

Her shy demeanor and the flush in her cheeks as she acts so embarrassed with a smile she couldn’t hide ‘What? Why? how? Why is she acting like a girl being with her crush? Huh?’

‘D-Don’t tell me Master accepted her love proposal or something.’

‘HUHHHHHH?’

Meanwhile, Zhao Tian took another slow sip from his coffee, savoring the warm taste.

Fei Lingxi’s eyes followed his every movement, and after a moment, she leaned closer, her voice barely a whisper. “Master… how is it?” she asked, her voice laden with a shy curiosity.

Without a word, Zhao Tian placed the coffee cup aside and instead leaned in, capturing her lips in a soft kiss.

She also quickly reciprocated back and her lips parted slightly, inviting him deeper.

Her heart raced as their kiss deepened, and she felt his tongue graze hers, tasting the subtle sweetness of the coffee that lingered in their mouths.

After a few seconds, Zhao Tian pulled back, a soft smile on his face as he looked at her, still holding her close. “So,” he murmured with a playful glint in his eye, “how is it?”

Fei Lingxi’s cheeks were now flushed a deep shade of pink, a shy smile spreading across her lips as she let out a small giggle.

“It’s… it’s wonderful,” she replied, her eyes sparkling with joy and a touch of embarrassment.

Looking at her face, Zhao Tian’s eyes softened… a mature woman has a special charm that young women can’t compare.

Seeing their romance, Xia Shenyi was quite impressed and stood up “Then I am going to bathe. Be careful in the forest.”

“Hm.”

As she left, Zhao Tian glanced at Fei Ziyu who was walking towards him with a dead expression on her face.

“Ziyu, today I will be busy.. we can go on a date for some other day.”

Hearing this, Fei Ziyu’s face changed, and she nodded excitedly “Yes, master!”

…

Stepping out of his room, Zhao Tian glanced around and saw that Li Jia was not there ‘Seems like it will take some days.’

He made his way towards the alchemy chamber and quickly entered Yao Jing’s room.

Inside, Yao Jing was lying on the floor with a paper in her hand “Hm.. dry rations, vegetables, frozen meat, medicines, pills, bedsheets, tent, clothes, all good.”

Looking at Zhao Tian, she smiled excitedly “Tiaannn~ good morning”

Seeing her enthusiastic greeting, Zhao Tian chuckled “Good morning.”

Hm? Yao Jing stood up and raised her chest like a queen “Ahem, that’s not how you should greet your Master. Come here and greet your Master respectfully with a bow.”

Zhao Tian glanced away “I refuse.”

( ✿˃̣̣̥᷄.⌓˂̣̣̥᷅ ) “Ehhhhhhhh? Whyyyyyyy?”

She walked to him and grabbed his shoulders “Give me respect! RESPECT!!!”

-_- Zhao Tian stared at her blankly and with a sigh, he hugged her “I feel like hugging you would be more appropriate, Master.”

(•o•๑) Waaaaaahhhh!!!

Yao Jing was surprised by his sudden hug and hurriedly hugged him back with an excited smile “That’s good, my dear disciple.”

Patting his head, she giggled “Muhehehe, Now let’s go to the adventure that will change the destiny of the world.”

‘We are just going to collect a herb.’
