174: Chapter 173 Kiss

Qian Mo: ?!

His composure broke almost instantly as he stared at the girl's beautiful face in disbelief.

He stole a glance at her lips, which were as tender and pink as cream pudding; his cheeks immediately turned bright red, and he quickly looked away, not daring to look at her face at all.

"Aha! That's it... this is the expression a little virgin should show. You're supposed to be shy..."

Qian Mo felt his chin being pinched by a soft little hand. No matter how he resisted, he couldn't escape the movement of his head being forcibly lifted.

He met the White Wolf Girl's golden eyes once again. This time, he actually saw a long-lost, familiar feeling deep within her pupils.

But that feeling vanished almost in a flash.

He suddenly realized with a start that he had somehow ended up sitting on the soft sofa in the living room, and the White Wolf Girl was actually sitting on his lap, looking at him with a face full of tenderness.

He could clearly feel the ambiguous sensation coming from his legs.

The girl wasn't heavy; she even felt a bit light. Although she had previously maintained an overbearing 'big sister' image before everyone—one where her fists hit home and she suppressed everything—her body was very soft, like cream pudding.

Her tail drooped slightly over his calves, brushing against them gently and creating a ticklish sensation.

Qian Mo only felt a wave of dryness in his mouth and throat.

"Are you really Young Miss Xing Yan..."

Qian Mo was somewhat dazed.

As a former assassin in his past life, he was someone who placed extreme trust in his sixth sense.

Although the girl before him had a completely different personality from Young Miss Xing Yan, he just felt that their innermost aura was exactly the same, without any sense of discordance...

This wasn't something that could be manifested by some evil Soul possession or a sophisticated disguise.

"Didn't I tell you already? I am her."

The girl blinked at him, his shy face reflected in her golden eyes.

"And... actually, I was serious just now. If you want her to come back, you really do have to do that."

Do what... kiss her?

"No... I can't. I... I can't take advantage of someone in a vulnerable position. Although I do like her, but... but this kind of thing should at least happen after she agrees to be my girlfriend..."

"Then what if I say that if you don't do this, both I and she will die?"

"Wha... what?"

Qian Mo looked at the girl in front of him in shock. At the same time, he felt the power binding his body vanish.

She was still looking at him with that smiling face, looking perfectly normal, not at all like someone about to die.

She couldn't be tricking me, could she...

[Ding! Host, please take note. After rigorous analysis by this System, the girl before you is indeed Young Miss Xing Yan. However... there is currently a massive amount of energy hidden within her body that urgently needs a channel to be released.]

[If not handled quickly, this will result in a massive energy explosion comparable to the full-strength strike of a Rank Five... and she will die from her body exploding!]

What!

Before he could finish being shocked, he felt the body of the girl sitting on his lap suddenly begin to tremble slightly. Her teasing expression also faded, replaced by a slight look of solemnity.

"Qian Mo... do you really have the heart to watch my body explode and die? Wuwuwu~"

That beautiful voice left Qian Mo's heart in a mess. But... is kissing her the only way to solve her problem...

No... this energy seems to be intensifying rapidly. This won't do...

Forget it, to save her, I'll...

Looking at the beautiful face right in front of him, Qian Mo actually felt unable to go through with it. For no other reason than he felt his first kiss should be given to the real Young Miss Xing Yan. If he kissed this version of her, he would be too much of a bastard to the original Young Miss Xing Yan!

As if understanding his concerns, "Xing Yaoyan" closed her eyes and said with a face full of helplessness:

"Fine, fine, fine. I know you're repulsed by me... Hmph... if it weren't for me, that version of me would have died long ago... you don't even know how to be grateful..."

The girl's voice grew smaller and smaller, and Qian Mo only heard the first sentence clearly.

"Forget it, I'll let her tell you herself..."

Saying this, the girl's body suddenly went limp, and she was about to fall to the side.

Qian Mo was startled and reacted quickly, wrapping one arm around her soft, slender waist and the other around her shoulder, preventing her from falling to the floor.

And at that moment, an even more terrifying energy storm erupted from the girl's body, looking as if it were about to go completely out of control.

"Qian... Qian Mo..."

The girl's vermilion lips parted slightly, and a weak voice slowly flowed out.

"Help me... save me..."

"Young Miss Xing Yan..."

Just then...

[Ding! Host, what are you still dazing for? The energy in her body is about to go completely out of control! Hurry up and help her suck it out!]

"System, are there any items that can help her?"

Qian Mo was extremely anxious.

[Ding! You idiot Host, didn't she just say it? Hurry up and kiss her! Use her mouth as a medium to suck out all this power. Don't you have the Star Body? This power will be a massive boost to your Star Body; one mouthful is worth you absorbing thousands of Spirit Crystals!]

[And even if you can't swallow all of it, don't you still have me? These energy essences can be exchanged for System Coins, so... hurry up! Otherwise, all three of us will die!!!]

Qian Mo immediately snapped to his senses.

Having experienced too much all at once, his brain had actually stalled for a moment.

Now, with the System's confirmation, it meant that if he wanted to save Young Miss Xing Yan, this was the only way.

"Qian Mo... it hurts so much, my head is going to explode..."

The girl's mouth was slightly open, her pink tongue peeking out. Because of the pain, her face showed a deep flush, and her voice, due to weakness, had a sort of seductive quality that sounded like unsatisfied desire.

Seeing her like this, Qian Mo knew that if he could still hold back as a man, he would truly be leaving the human species behind.

Young Miss Xing Yan... forgive me...

Having made up his mind, he no longer hesitated.

At the same time, the craving coming from his Star Body reached its Peak.

His consciousness was a bit fuzzy for a moment; he actually seemed to see the white wolf Xing Yaoyan who had accompanied him for several months and similarly made his heart flutter within her features.

The youth closed his eyes, and the kiss—mixed with various desires and complex emotions—finally landed on Xing Yaoyan's lips.

His Star Body also began to operate at full power the moment their lips met.

The power inside Xing Yaoyan's body seemed to have found an outlet, and through her lips, it surged violently into Qian Mo's body.

His strength increased rapidly. The Star Body, which he had jokingly called a bottomless pit, actually felt like it was being filled up, and the shackles of Rank Four began to crumble.

The System had told him that to Breakthrough to Rank Four, the Star Body must be Cultivated to the second stage.

He had originally thought that with his speed of desperately earning and absorbing Spirit Crystals, this Cultivation would take at least another year or so. He hadn't expected that he would actually be about to succeed today.

The growth of power made him feel a bit light-headed. The kiss, which was initially somewhat gentle and tentative, gradually began to become rough.

And what added fuel to the fire was that the girl actually stuck out her tongue at this time...

Young Miss Xing Yan, if you're like this, I'm really going to offend you!

Forget it, I can't hold back! Whatever the punishment in the future... I'll accept it...

Thinking of this, the youth cast aside all concerns and gripped the girl's shoulders tightly. Because he used too much force, the high-quality clothes on his body were even slightly torn.

Just like that, he took this kiss to its deepest point...
