Chapter 169: One Last Step 1

“Do you really like them?” The double asked, and Zhen Yuan nodded.

“I like them very much.” He said.

Hearing this, Shen Xu smiled, looking at Zhen Yuan with doting eyes.

’I am glad.’ He thought.

A moment later, Zhen Yuan looked at Shen Xu with a solemn expression.

“Xiaoxu, will you marry me?” He asked.

In fact, he had many things he wanted to say.

He wanted to let Shen Xu know that he was precious to him.

That he had become the only indispensable aspect of his life.

Unfortunately, Zhen Yuan had never been good with words.

Involuntarily, everything he wanted to say boiled down to a few words.

“Give me a chance to make you happy.” He said.

When Shen Xu heard this, he smiled and stood on tiptoes to kiss Zhen Yuan’s lips.

“Only if you will give me a chance to also make you happy.” He said.

Hearing this, Zhen Yuan embraced the person, wanting to directly merge with the double.

“Xiaoxu, I have prepared everything. Will you go with me?”

“Mmh.” Shen Xu nodded.

After that, the two cancelled their disguises, showered and then soaked in the medicinal hot spring.

They left the medicinal hot spring an hour later, changed into their red robes, combed each other’s hair and left the space.

When they returned to their bedroom in the rented courtyard, Zhen Yuan didn’t give Shen Xu time to acclimate before he teleported them away.

A moment later, they appeared in the middle of a colourful field.

On closer look, Shen Xu saw a vast sea of wildflowers.

The wildflowers were purple, red, white, yellow, green, orange, and a myriad of other colours.

Ordinarily, such a random mixture of colours would appear messy and distasteful but the flowers in the field were strangely harmonious.

There was just enough of each colour and flower to add up to an extraordinarily beautiful landscape.

At a distance, Shen Xu saw the sun sinking between two tall mountains, casting its residue rays on the flower field.

Simultaneously, the wildflowers danced in the evening breeze while colourful butterflies zoomed around, creating a beautiful and peaceful paradise.

“So beautiful.” The double unconsciously muttered.

Shen Xu couldn’t say that he specifically liked flowers.

However, he liked beautiful things.

At this time, he naturally loved the environment and his mood improved.

“Brother Yuan, this place is so beautiful.” He said, holding Zhen Yuan’s arm.

“I am glad you like it.”

“Where are we?”

“Sunset Monster Mountain.” Zhen Yuan said and quickly explained.

“I found this place when I was completing an Academy task. I have always wanted to bring you here, but I didn’t get a chance until now.”

“I like it very much, but brother Yuan…” Shen Xu started and quickly continued.

“Do you know why I like this place very much?” The double asked in a mysterious voice.

“Tell me.”

“Because with you is my favourite place to be.” Shen Xu whispered, raising his head to look at Zhen Yuan.

Zhen Yuan didn’t think twice.

He lowered his head and kissed Shen Xu, wanting to relay all the love and devotion in his heart.

When the kiss was over, Shen Xu didn’t look away from Zhen Yuan.

“Brother Yuan, will we always be together?” He asked.

“Always.” Zhen Yuan promised in a solemn voice.

“Xiaoxu, mortals vow to hold hands and grow old together, but we are cultivators. I want to hold your hand and face eternity together. Are you willing?”

“I am willing.” Shen Xu nodded and soon continued.

“We will be birds flying in the sky as one and branches growing on the earth as one.”

After saying that, Shen Xu removed a silver dagger from his space ring.

Without another word, he cut his left ring finger, and a drop of blood flew up.

“I, Shen Xu, swear by my soul with the Tao as a witness. From this day, I take Zhen Yuan as my only lover and Taoist companion. I will accompany him in this life and every other life. I will love him above all else and never abandon him, irrespective of life or death. If I violate my oath, my soul shall be destroyed and never enter reincarnation.” Shen Xu vowed.

Hearing the vow, Zhen Yuan smiled, took the dagger, and also cut his left ring finger.

A moment later, a drop of blood flew up.

“I, Zhen Yue, swear by my soul with the Tao as a witness. From this day, I take Shen Xu as my only lover and Taoist companion. I will accompany him in this life and every other life. I will love him above all else and never abandon him, irrespective of life or death. If I violate my oath, my soul shall be destroyed and never enter reincarnation.” Zhen Yuan vowed.

Instantaneously, the two drops of blood flew towards each other and quickly merged into one.

Less than a breath later, the blood turned golden and radiated a pure golden light.

After the light dimmed, the golden blood divided into two equal portions; reshaped into two golden runes, and directly flew into the palace between the two people’s eyebrows.

“We are finally married.” Shen Xu smiled.

“There is still one last step.” Zhen Yuan said and directly dragged the double into the space.

Soon after, the two people appeared in their bedroom in the bamboo hut.

Seeing the room, Shen Xu couldn’t help but be surprised.

“No wonder you didn’t let me come to the bedroom when we were getting ready.” He said.

“Do you like it?” Zhen Yuan asked, and Shen Xu immediately nodded.

Shen Xu liked red.

At this time, the bedding, curtains, and other things were all in red.

Looking at the red, Shen Xu blushed, and his heart skipped a beat.

When Shen Xu first arrived in the Canglan continent, he was a little reluctant to be with a man.

However, his reluctance had long turned into impatience.

As early as the first year, Shen Xu had wanted to consummate the marriage, but many things got in the way.

First, Zhen Yuan wanted to respect Shen Xu’s origins and wait until they were at least eighteen before taking the last step.

Also, Shen Xu had yet to build his foundation.

Considering that, they decided to wait as long as possible before consummating their marriage.

Fortunately, the wait was finally over.

Thinking of this, Shen Xu kissed Zhen Yuan.

At this time, neither was reserved.

Zhen Yuan picked up Shen Xu and laid him on the bed.

“I won’t stop.” Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu chuckled.

“I don’t want you to stop.”

This was all the encouragement Zhen Yuan needed.

Without another word, he kissed Shen Xu while his left hand undid the double’s belt.

Simultaneously, Shen Xu also pulled at Zhen Yuan’s belt, and the robe soon fell open.

As a double, Shen Xu had fair skin and red nipples.

At this time, his skin was flushed a beautiful red, and his nipples hardened, inviting his lover to take a bite.

“Nngg…, brother Yuan…” Shen Xu called, his body arching from the bed.

Hearing this, Zhen Yuan kissed, licked, and lightly bit the beautiful nipple, causing Shen Xu to almost lose control.

“Does it feel good?” Zhen Yuan asked.

“It feels good.” Shen Xu answered in a breathy voice, his hands pushing his lover’s head onto the nipple.

At the same time, he twined his legs around Zhen Yuan’s body, locking the person into place.

Zhen Yuan nibbled on one nipple before moving to the next.

Simultaneously, his right hand slid along Shen Xu’s thigh before stopping at the base of his legs.

Feeling the touch, Shen Xu trembled.

For some reason, he was more sensitive than usual.

However, he didn’t pretend to be reserved.

He moaned when he felt good and rubbed against his lover, encouraging Zhen Yuan to keep going.

“Husband…” He whispered, and Zhen Yuan shuddered.

Over the years, they sometimes introduced each other as husband and wife.

However, this was the first time that Shen Xu directly called Zhen Yuan ’husband’.

This call was like a drug; Zhen Yuan tightened his grasp on Shen Xu’s little brother, and the double moaned in pleasure.

At the same time, he snaked his hand between their bodies and also grasped Zhen Yuan.

“Xiaoxu…” Zhen Yuan groaned, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.

He desperately wanted Shen Xu.

However, he didn’t want to rush.

After all, Shen Xu was his beloved wife.

The precious treasure he wanted to cherish and take care of.

Thinking of this, Zhen Yuan forcibly suppressed his impulse and slid his hand lower on Shen Xu’s body.

A moment later, a long finger entered Shen Xu’s body, and the double trembled in pleasure.

Double’s bodies were physiologically enabled for penetration.

At this time, the passage was wet and elastic, causing Zhen Yuan to almost lose his cool.

“Ayuan…” Shen Xu called in a breathy voice, tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.
