Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires

The moment she called out her attacker's name, a pair of blue eyes that gleamed like sapphire orbs appeared before her in the darkness. Upon meeting those eyes, she found herself captivated by them as the gaze of the mysterious man pierced into her soul.

Her expression changed from playful to serene and entranced in a single heartbeat as she lost herself in his stare, who also stared back at her with equal intensity.

A moment passed before his face shifted into a teasing grin as he watched Cai Yan's reactions. He lowered his head again and placed his mouth close to her ear, whispering to her in a husky voice, "It is true that it is my fault for initiating this. But do you know what happens to naughty girls who try to fight me and bite me, Yan-Yan? They get punished. So, be prepared."

At these words, a chill ran down her spine as she felt the grip on her waist tighten as Asher pulled her in even closer before smashing his lips into her own with fervent desire.

The two of them engaged in a passionate exchange that sent waves of bliss throughout her entire body, making her melt in his arms. Their tongues intertwined while they explored each other's mouths in a heated battle, both refusing to give in to the other.

After what seemed like an eternity of pleasure, they broke apart, with their lips still connected by a trail of saliva that Asher licked away before releasing her. Both parties stared at one another for several seconds before laughing together as they basked in the afterglow of their passionate moment.

"Compared to kissing you in your dream space, kissing you in the flesh is so much better, my love," Asher said as he gazed into Cai Yan's eyes before licking his lips like a predator eyeing its prey.

Cai Yan rolled her eyes upon hearing him say that. "That's because we are still far away from the Nascent Soul Realm. Once we are able to use our soul power, the pleasure in the dream space will far surpass this world."

She spoke with confidence, which made Asher's grin even wider. "Then, I guess you better be prepared when the time comes. For I shall make sure that you fall into the abyss of eternal temptation and drown in the ocean of sensual ecstasy, until you cannot take it anymore."

With that said, Asher closed in and planted a soft kiss on Cai Yan's forehead, making her blush. "Hehe! You talk big. Let's see if you can live up to your words."

The next second, the surrounding dark mist dissipated, revealing the figure of a tall and handsome young man wearing a black robe embroidered with a silver dragon pattern on the sleeves, giving him a devilish charm that was hard to resist. His short black hair was swept to one side, framing his pale features while emphasizing his sharp jawline.

The young man's most striking feature, however, was his piercing blue eyes, which resembled a sapphire gemstone. With a roguish smile on his face, he looked down upon her with tenderness and affection evident in his gaze.

Cai Yan smiled as she saw his appearance and embraced his body, placing her head on his chest while taking in the warmth of his presence.

"Hahaha... Who would believe that the woman who is acting docile in my arms now had just fooled someone with her disguise and stolen his points?" Asher teased Cai Yan, which made her raise her head to meet his gaze, rolling her eyes as she stuck her tongue out at him.

"It's not my fault that the guy was easy to fool," Cai Yan defended herself as she recalled the scene where she deceived Yuan Long by turning into Long Lingyu.

"Haha... True enough! But what if the relationship between him and the real Long Lingyu turns sour in the future? Won't you feel guilty?" Asher questioned Cai Yan.

"Hmm... I can't say that I care about that. After all, it isn't my problem. Besides, if that were to happen, it would only serve to prove that they didn't have a true connection with each other to begin with. And in my opinion, that type of relationship is nothing more than an empty shell without any substance. Only the purest forms of love can withstand the test of time.

Just like how I recognized you even when you were shrouded in the shadow mist with your whole figure hidden in the dark. Otherwise, do you think anyone would even get a chance to touch my body without getting their hand sliced off?"

Cai Yan retorted back, a hint of killing intent flashing across her pink pupils. She wouldn't hesitate to kill anyone who dared to take advantage of her in any way whatsoever, whether they were her acquaintance or not.

Asher couldn't help but agree to her statement; although he hadn't known her for long, he felt as though they had been lovers since forever. This feeling of intimacy was so natural that it felt like breathing. Therefore, he also believed in the importance of having a deep bond with someone in order for them to understand each other's hearts and souls.

As for someone taking advantage of his woman, well, they would have to pray that their death would be quick and painless.

"Fair enough. Let them sort it out between themselves. We don't need to waste our time worrying about someone else's affairs," Asher agreed with her assessment. "Anyway, since you got your points, you can proceed to the next stage of the trial."

Cai Yan nodded her head and was about to leave, but she noticed that Asher's token was displaying a zero. Therefore, she looked at him with a puzzled expression as she inquired, "Why haven't you hunted any beasts? I don't think it would have been so difficult for you. Was your luck too bad to encounter a beast?"
