Chapter 197: What you desire isn’t me

“Hic** Rahu!” Xuenyi leaned closer, falling like a drunkard near his legs. “Hic** Let me tell you a little Hic** secret. My name Hic** isn’t actually Hic**…”

Rahu raised his eyebrows when he heard, “Your name isn’t Xuenyi?”

“Bahhh! Obviously no!”

A cute pout formed on her nigh-arrogant face.

“Then what is it?”

“Hehe, Hic** I’ll tell you when you defeat me! Consider that as a reward!” Xuenyi patted her chest proudly and spoke in an arrogant tone.

Seeing this, Rahu’s smile widened, “If I defeat you…won’t my reward be something else?”

“Ssshhhu up! This is just merely a flesh! What is so interesting about them!?”

Xuneyi shook her head fiercely, hearing her words. Rahu’s eyes twitch violently.

“Just you wait.”

…

The Next day.

Rahu’s cultivation was still at the same level; the two smirked.

BOOM!!

Their fists collided intensely. Xuenyi was a master at close combat. Even Rahu, a past MMA pro, acknowledged this.

The two kept fighting for an entire day, and at night, they would drink till dropping dead on the ground.

This continued for a week, in these few days. The couple had grown a lot closer in the past few days. Xuenyi’s arrogant and indifferent mask was slowly crumbling.

Rahu didn’t even realize the passage of time, these seven days. He dared say that these were one of the very best days he had experienced.

On the eighth day, the two were fighting as usual. But this time, something was different. Xuenyi could no longer one-sidedly dominate Rahu.

Although he was still losing…but not dominated. He was slowly pushing her back.

Xuenyi looked at the smiling face of Rahu, and a glee couldn’t help but pass through her body. The more she looked at Rahu, the more pleasing to the eye he seemed.

Vanishing from her spot, her hand shot forward! Before, Rahu could not even react.

BAM!!

Xuenyi headbutted him right on his forehead.

Rahu merely frowned, but focused on the woman in front of him.

“You are improving, your skills have even managed to surprise me! There’s no way in hell that these arts are from the Holy Sun Continent, nor the two other worlds.”

“Heh, I could teach you these skills, you know? As long as you become mine.”

Rahu declared and kicked her stomach, separating himself from her.

“So greedy, with your handsome face, I’m sure you have already trapped countless lambs.”

Xuenyi shook her head.

“Greedy? Yes, I’m greedy. Greedy for you.”

Rahu replied in an instant; there was no hesitation whatsoever in his voice. Just then, Xuenyi frowned.

“What you desire isn’t me, but victory over my arrogance and the intoxicating taste of conquest of taming the unconquerable.”

Saying that, she stepped towards him. Ignoring the personal space, she stood in front of him and locked her eyes with his.

“I am selfish, egoistic, defiant, and cruel. What is there to like in me? Any man who claims to want me is either deluded by my beauty, or he has some other motives, or he is suffering from some mental issues.”

Hearing the words of her description, Rahu burst into a feral laughter.

“I’m also selfish, arrogant, haughty, and cruel. Who’s to say I’m not heaven’s gift to you and your mate on this road of conquest?”

Hearing his words, Xuenyi looked into Rahu’s eyes for a few seconds before shaking her head. Rahu was too shameless for his own good.

But then, she suddenly asked. “Why heaven? Why can’t it be hell? It’s been centuries since I ditched that shithole.”

But before he could answer, she once again draped her arms over his shoulders and led him inside.

Her mood…flipped so quick that even Rahu was left speechless.

“Let’s go and drink till we drop dead!”

“I like the sound of that.”

But inwardly, her words still rang loud in his mind. Looking at her face, he realized.

“This woman…there’s something far deeper about her than she lets on.”

At night.

As usual, the couple were drinking and laughing. Cracking a few jokes here and there. But after a few seconds.

Rahu just kept looking at Xuenyi; his stare was intense.

“Your cultivation…?”

Seeing his look, Xuenyiu sighed and slowly lowered the bottle onto the ground.

“Yes, you guessed it right. I’m still at Spirit Realm.”

Silence…Absolute silence.

Rahu stared at the women in disbelief, “What do you mean they are still stuck at the Spirit Realm?” Rahu was so speechless that he had to ask the same question twice.

The thing was, he had never scanned Xuenyi nor looked into her body. Till now, he had just assumed that she was suppressing her cultivation to battle him. But it seems he was wrong.

“Hmph! Look who’s acting so surprised. Sixty percent holding back? Holding back my round ass!”

Xuenyi snorted back at Rahu, and he became even more confused. But then, a realization struck him deep.

S-She didn’t know about his law! Turning his head towards her, he muttered inwardly, “Was I mistaken?”

“Do you think you could hide your cultivation and physique from me?” Xuenyi spoke.

The moment he heard those words, Rahu burst into laughter!

“I see! Heh, I was worried for nothing.” He shook his head and spoke inwardly, gazing into Xuneyi’s eyes, and he smirked.

“Well? Didn’t you hide your physique too?”

Yes…this woman was a generational…no, a millennial-level genius! She had almost overpowered Rahu with just her physique and [Sword Aura] while still having the cultivation of Spirit Realm. There was no doubt about it…she had a Divine Grade Physique!

“I did, go on revealing yours,” Xuenyi said shamelessly.

“Heh? My physique? Are you sure you wanna see it?”

Rahu grinned widely as he replied to her.

“Brat. Who are you scaring? Go on, reveal it!” Xuneyi encouraged him further, seeing this, Rahu shook his head.

“I’m not that stupid, and if you really wanna see mine. You gotta show yours first.”

Rahu said, but his words…they were misleading on so many levels. That Xuenyi’s brows twitched at his shamelessness.

“Alright then, it’s decided. Let’s go all out tomorrow!” Xuenyi spoke as she once again lifted the bottle from the ground and chugged it down in one gulp.
