After bidding farewell to Qiao Fenyi and paying his respects to his grandfather—promising to give Li Mei his regards—Huang Shi finally walked back towards his home, a quiet sense of exhaustion filling his features.
It's good that I've dealt with Fenyi, but another problem is sure to come up when I get home.
Huang Shi started to feel a shiver in the back of his spine as he started to think of his beloved stepmother.
Right now things were good between them, but he was pretty sure it was because the emotions and novelty of the situation were still in effect. Over time, she was going to start to realize that he was not the kind of man to be bound by a single woman.
The question was: when she finds out that she needs to share her beloved baby boy—her secret lover—with other women, and that there will be more in the future, how will she react?
Huang Shi's heart started to beat faster inside of his chest as dusk started to settle in the Azure Dragon Sect. Lanterns lit up one by one as stalls selling food and high-end restaurants started their nightly routine.
What if she kills me out of jealousy? Her cultivation base is much higher than mine right now... am I heading to my death?
Huang Shi had the sudden urge to run, to leave it all behind and find some backwater place to continue his cultivation. He had this nasty thought in his mind that wherever he ended up, he would still grow up to become a powerhouse as long as he had the system.
I also have the Thousand Faced Mask. I can run away from all this mess...
However, before all of these thoughts could consume his mind, a single commanding roar resounded inside of his head, screaming a single thought:
Why the fuck should I be afraid of my women? They are mine! She will share me whether she likes it or not!
With his newfound conviction, he finally arrived inside of his humble abode, opening his gates and passing through the stone arch that led to his Japanese-style home.
Thinking he had a couple more hours to plan things out before his stepmother arrived, he went towards his private bathtub—a hot spring that would give him time to calm his nerves and plan out his next steps.
However, the moment he opened the door to his private hot spring, the figure of a mature woman with her back to him once again appeared in his vision.
Her long black hair was tied into a neat bun, making her look both elegant and refined; her soft white skin glistened under the light of dusk, making her look immaculate, like a painting that should never be touched.
Her soft curves were completely exposed to his predatory gaze, as if whispering to him that he should pounce on her, that he should devour her and claim her as his once more.
Fuck... how the hell is it possible for a woman to be this beautiful?
Huang Shi had the nagging thought that if his beloved stepmother was part of the younger generation, she would most definitely be part of the Azure Dragon Sect's so-called "Twin Flowers," who would then be called the "Three Flowers" because of her presence.
Li Mei, seemingly noticing his gaze, suddenly looked back at him as a beautiful smile formed on her soft cherry lips.
"Shi'er, you're home. How did things go with your grandfather? Did it go well?"
Without even bothering with a response, he quickly stripped off his clothes and jumped into the warm waters of the hot spring. He wrapped his arms around Li Mei's waist with a sharp sense of possessiveness.
"Mei'er, why do you look so beautiful today?"
His stepmother shivered at his touch before looking back at him with a doting smile, the look of a woman deeply in love. "Hmm... are there days that I'm not beautiful, then?"
Huang Shi quickly shook his head as he kissed her neck, opening his mouth to give a slight lick that sent goosebumps racing across her skin.
"Don't patronize me, Mei'er. You know how obsessed I am with you."
Li Mei chuckled, holding his hands where they rested in front of her, and spoke in a soft, melodic voice. "I know. Every night you remind me; how could I ever forget?"
Huang Shi felt his blood boil as his stiff rod started to stand at attention. The softness of her skin, her natural scent, and the curve of her back as it dipped toward her exceptionally prominent butt were overwhelming.
Fuck... I want to take her right now.
Noticing his reaction, Li Mei moved one of her pretty hands back to hold his erection beneath the warm water, slowly moving it up and down.
"Why don't you tell me what happened today? It's your first time exploring the sect; you must have had your fair share of fun."
Huang Shi groaned in pleasure, his thoughts becoming clouded by lust as he spoke without hesitation. "Things went well with grandfather. I'm pretty sure he'll protect us just like he's always done."
Seeing that her beloved was already drowning in pleasure, Li Mei opted to increase the pace, her hand moving faster. "Did you get the Azure Dragon Tyrant Body technique?"
Huang Shi struggled to contain himself as he continued to grope her beneath the surface, squeezing her waist and the curve of her butt. "Yes, I did. I also got some other stuff, but I'll tell you about that later."
A hint of surprise flashed in Li Mei's eyes as she nodded softly, gripping his shaft tighter and stroking him with increased intensity, trying her best to make him release into her soft grip.
"I heard you met a girl called Qiao Fenyi. Why don't you tell me about her? I heard she was pretty."
Huang Shi, currently drowning in ecstasy, failed to notice that the soft, doting look in Li Mei's eyes had vanished. In its place was a sharp, predatory gleam—like a mother hen protecting her chicks, or a lioness guarding her territory.
"Yeah, she was very beautiful"
It was at this moment Huang Shi knew he fucked up
