Chapter 94: Leng Xiao – You Are Different
"You're lying!"
Leng Xiao, always straightforward, blurted out, "You… you were so skilled when you kissed me. It shows you must have… done it with Sister Yue a lot. That's why you're so good at it…"
As she said this, Leng Xiao recalled her earlier frenzy, and her cheeks turned bright red.
But Lin Ze directly answered her.
"If Sister Xiaoxiao is talking about kissing, then I'll tell you honestly. You already know I can absorb lust…"
"What does that have to do with anything?" Leng Xiao asked, confused.
Looking at her puzzled expression, Lin Ze pursed his lips—then, to answer her more clearly, pulled her into his arms. Before she could react, Lin Ze kissed her again.
Leng Xiao's heart began pounding wildly. When did Lin Ze become so forceful?
But just as she was about to give in to anticipation, a sudden wave of numbness washed over her—
Something inside her had clearly been drawn out.
As her eyes turned glassy, Lin Ze gently released her and said:
"Because of my bloodline, when I go into combat, I gradually lose strength and eventually consciousness. If I don't control it, I'll become a monster driven purely by the urge to devour everything. That's why I need to absorb extreme emotions to stay lucid."
Weakened, Leng Xiao lay in Lin Ze's arms and slowly looked up at him.
"Then… you can eat me. I won't refuse you."
Hearing her soft reply, Lin Ze could see the worry in her eyes and chuckled gently.
"Sister Xiaoxiao before couldn't be used—your lust power wasn't pure enough. If I absorbed it back then, it would've been impossible for you to recover."
Leng Xiao blinked, then quickly understood the meaning behind his words.
She smiled. "So I can now?"
"No."
"Eh? Why not?" She puffed up her cheeks in protest.
"Because you're not sad anymore. Not as pure as last time."
"Ugh~~"
"You're such a bully, Lin Ze!"
Recovering her strength, Leng Xiao pushed Lin Ze away and pouted, feigning anger.
But she understood what he meant.
Back then, it was her jealousy toward Yue Ye that made her emotions reach an extreme.
Now that the misunderstanding was cleared up, she wasn't as sad anymore.
Still, Leng Xiao felt warm inside.
What Lin Ze had just revealed was clearly a secret. He trusted her enough to share it.
Hehe.
He really does still care about me.
At that moment, Lin Ze was also surprised—
From Leng Xiao's body, the aura of "joy", one of the seven extreme emotions, suddenly burst forth.
A smile formed on Lin Ze's lips.
> "This… suits Sister Xiaoxiao."
"Sister Xiaoxiao," he asked, "if I get hungry later, can I come to you often?"
After all, he needed to collect all seven lust emotions to break his seal.
And now, he had four:
Fear from Cai'er
Desire from Yue Ye
Joy and Sorrow from Leng Xiao
As for Xidi, the power of desire she emitted wasn't pure—more like a residual cultivation from her days as the Love Demon God, different from normal emotions.
But for now, he wasn't worried. Yue Ye's desire was nearly fully absorbed—just another half-month or so.
When Lin Ze asked, Leng Xiao didn't even think twice. She trusted that Lin Ze would never hurt her.
But suddenly, she remembered something and said, "It's not impossible… but you have to agree to one condition."
"What condition?"
"When you kiss me in the future… you have to call me Xiaoxiao."
She hesitated, slightly embarrassed.
"That's all?" Lin Ze thought it was something serious. Just a name?
"Yep. That's my only condition. If you won't do it… then forget it." She pouted and huffed.
"I don't mind that at all."
Hearing his reply, Leng Xiao's heart thudded.
She looked at Lin Ze, nervous and expectant.
"Then… call me once?"
Looking at her eager eyes, Lin Ze didn't hold back.
"…Xiaoxiao."
Strangely, saying that simple name felt unexpectedly hard.
So intimate.
Before he could say more—
Leng Xiao, her face red, suddenly pushed him onto the sofa and looked down at him, panting lightly.
"If you call me again… Sister Xiaoxiao will feed you, okay…"
She seemed to remember what Yue Ye had promised him on the battle stage, and mumbled it under her breath.
Looking at her flushed face and eager eyes, Lin Ze couldn't help but whisper again:
"Xiaoxiao."
The moment he said it, Leng Xiao immediately kissed him.

That night, Lin Ze was thoroughly satisfied.
So much so, he completely forgot his agreement with Yue Ye.
He was originally supposed to go to the hotel and replenish himself with Yue Ye's lust aura that night.
But now that he was already full, there was no need.
More importantly, after absorbing Leng Xiao's lust, he successfully broke through the bottleneck of the sixth level.
His spiritual power surpassed 10,000, entering the seventh level.

Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
There was still more than a year before Dream Paradise opened, so Lin Ze wasn't in a rush.
During this half month, Lin Ze didn't return to the Palace of Love Demons with Xidi. Instead, he joined Yue Ye's caravan, traveling between the territories of humans and demons to gain experience.
Naturally, they wouldn't be heading to the Holy City. This time, their destination was Exorcist Pass, one of the six great human defense fortresses.
After several days of travel, they finally arrived at the outer wall of Exorcist Pass.
After handing over the Yue Ye Chamber of Commerce token, the guard examined it and returned it once verified.
> "Everyone, follow me."
As they walked, the guard explained:
> "Recently, human-demon conflict has flared up again. Management of caravans is stricter now. During your stay in the city, you may only move within the commercial zone. Anyone found in the military zone may be executed on the spot."
Lin Ze, Yue Ye, and the others understood the reasoning and said nothing.
Soon, the caravan was brought into the commercial district.
Even there, the number of patrol guards had clearly increased.
