65: Hot Spring Planet, Benefits for All

The roar of the spaceship's engines gradually softened.

The starry sky outside the window slowly transitioned from deep black into a dreamlike pinkish-purple.

That was the result of the atmosphere refracting the starlight.

Designation H-20.

In this sea of stars filled with slaughter and crises, it had a more well-known name—[Pink Heaven].

This was a planet composed entirely of oceans and islands.

Due to active crustal movements, the entire planet was dotted with tens of thousands of natural hot springs.

Steaming white mist shrouded the sea year-round, intertwining with the pink sky, as beautiful as an unreal dream.

"We're here."

Gu Pingsheng stood on the bridge, looking at the planet below that resembled a pink pearl, and stretched.

After days of constant tension, he finally relaxed at this moment.

First, exploring ruins, then killing in the black market, and then splurging a hundred million at the auction.

Even an iron man would rust.

Not to mention, he had a whole ship full of delicate beauties.

"Alice, find the most luxurious hot spring villa on the planet."

Gu Pingsheng snapped his fingers.

"Understood, Captain."

Alice's gentle electronic voice sounded.

On the holographic screen, countless red dots flashed before finally locking onto a massive manor located on an isolated island.

"[Cloud Top Heavenly Palace] Hot Spring Resort."

"It boasts the planet's only suspended infinity pool and seventy-two natural medicinal springs with various effects."

"However..."

Alice's voice paused.

"This place is membership-only, and it's currently been booked by several executives from Interstellar Financial Conglomerates."

"Booked?"

Gu Pingsheng smiled.

He pulled out a black card with silver edges from his pocket and spun it between his fingertips.

That was the [Interstellar Black Gold Card] he had looted from Zhao Tianba.

After being enhanced by the Hand of God, it was now a top-tier universal pass.

"Tell them I'm booking the whole place."

"I'll pay double compensation for all losses."

"If they're unwilling..."

Gu Pingsheng narrowed his eyes, his tone carrying an unquestionable dominance.

"Then tell them to get lost."

...Half an hour later.

The spaceship slowly landed on the private helipad of [Cloud Top Heavenly Palace].

The manor's manager, an alien with four ears wearing a tuxedo, had long been waiting there respectfully with two rows of attendants.

Seeing Gu Pingsheng step off the spaceship, the manager immediately went to meet him, bowing so low his waist almost touched the ground.

"Distinguished Black Gold Card holder! Welcome to Cloud Top Heavenly Palace!"

His voice was trembling.

When he received the emergency communication from the Chamber of Commerce headquarters just now, he thought he had misheard.

A big shot holding the legendary Black Gold Card had actually come to his small resort?

That was a presence even the President of the Chamber of Commerce would have to treat with great respect!

As for those conglomerate executives who had originally booked rooms?

In the face of the Black Gold Card's authority, they didn't dare utter a peep and left obediently with their compensation money.

"Mhm."

Gu Pingsheng nodded indifferently and casually tossed a list to the manager.

"These are the ingredients and drinks I need; everything must be top-tier."

"Also, clear out the largest outdoor hot spring. I don't want anyone disturbing us."

"Yes! Yes! Rest assured! I will absolutely make sure you are satisfied!"

The manager took the list as if it were a precious treasure and retreated... In the changing room.

The atmosphere was slightly sultry.

"Wow! This swimsuit is so pretty!"

Lele held up a one-piece swimsuit with little ducks on it, measuring it against herself, her eyes sparkling.

"But... isn't this one too revealing?"

Chen Chuxia pinched two thin pieces of fabric in her hands, her face as red as a ripe tomato.

It was a white ruffled bikini.

Although the design was pure, the fabric was indeed pitifully sparse.

Especially the bottom half, which only had two thin strings tied at the waist.

"What are you afraid of? The Captain isn't an outsider."

Ye Hongyu was quite bold.

She directly stripped off her tight leather clothes, revealing her incredibly hot body.

Then, she picked up a red bikini and skillfully put it on.

The red fabric tightly wrapped around her nearly overflowing snowy-white breasts.

Her deep cleavage seemed capable of sucking one's soul in.

She turned in front of the mirror and curled her lips in satisfaction.

"Since it's a perk, we have to let the Captain see his fill, right?"

As she spoke, she specifically winked at Lin Qinghan in the corner.

"What do you think, Madam Adjutant?"

Lin Qinghan was facing away from everyone, stiffly unbuttoning her combat uniform.

Hearing Ye Hongyu's teasing, her back visibly trembled.

"Shut up."

She coldly spat out two words.

But her voice lacked some of its usual majesty and had a bit more embarrassment.

What she held in her hand was a black one-piece swimsuit.

Although it was a one-piece, the design was extremely bold.

The back was completely hollowed out, opening all the way down to the small of her back.

The high-cut bottom further showcased those impossibly long legs.

Gu Pingsheng had specifically picked this for her.

He said it suited her temperament.

"Bastard..."

Lin Qinghan bit her lip, looking at her reflection in the mirror with peach-blossom cheeks and hazy eyes, and cursed inwardly.

But she didn't stop her movements.

Because she knew that man was waiting for her... In the outdoor hot spring area.

This place was located on the edge of a cliff, offering an excellent view.

The pink sky was reflected in the clear blue water, as if the whole world had turned a gentle color.

Gu Pingsheng wore only a towel wrapped around his waist, leaning against a rock by the pool.

The warm spring water washed over his chest, taking away his fatigue.

He held a glass of chilled fruit wine, lazily watching the entrance.

"Tap, tap, tap."

A light sound of footsteps approached.

First to come into view was a pair of fair and tender little feet.

Su Ruan came hopping over, holding her rabbit plushie and wearing a dark blue Sukumizu.

"Big Brother!"

She cheered and jumped directly into the water.

The splashing water sprayed all over Gu Pingsheng's face.

"Slow down."

Gu Pingsheng wiped his face with a smile and reached out to catch the little girl who clung to him like an octopus.

The Sukumizu clung tightly to her petite body, outlining her youthful yet beautiful curves.

Her wet hair stuck to her cheeks, making her look exceptionally cute.

Next, Chen Chuxia walked out.

She held her hands over her chest, her head bowed, not daring to look at Gu Pingsheng.

That white ruffled swimsuit on her was the pinnacle of pure desire.

Her fair skin glowed like porcelain under the sunlight.

As she walked, the ruffles on her chest trembled slightly, like two startled white doves.

"Cap... Captain..."

She walked to the edge of the pool and tentatively dipped her toe to test the water.

"Come on in, the temperature is just right."

Gu Pingsheng beckoned to her.

Only then did Chen Chuxia blush and carefully slide into the water, quickly shrinking into a corner next to Gu Pingsheng, with only her large eyes showing.

Then came Ye Hongyu.

She was like a ball of burning fire.

The red bikini, paired with her wild figure, was simply a walking hormone.

Without the slightest hesitation, she walked to the poolside with a cat-like gait.

Then, right in front of Gu Pingsheng, she slowly untied her hair tie.

Her wine-red hair cascaded down like a waterfall over her snowy-white shoulders.

"Captain, it seems everyone is here."

She gave a soft laugh and gracefully entered the water.

Then, like a mermaid, she swam behind Gu Pingsheng.

A pair of soft, boneless hands rested on his shoulders.

"You've worked hard lately. Shall I give you a massage?"

Without waiting for Gu Pingsheng's answer, she began to knead gently.

The pressure was just right, and her fingertips occasionally brushed against Gu Pingsheng's neck, sending a tingle of electricity through him.

Finally, Lin Qinghan came out.

She was wrapped tightly in a large bath towel.

She didn't stop until she reached the poolside.

"Um... I..."

She stammered for a long time, not daring to take off the towel.

"What? Do you want me to help you take it off?"

Gu Pingsheng turned his head and looked at her with a half-smile.

Lin Qinghan's face turned completely red instantly.

She took a deep breath, as if making a major decision, and suddenly pulled off the towel.

In that instant.

The air seemed to freeze.

Black swimsuit, snowy-white skin.

The intense visual contrast struck everyone's eyes.

Those legs were straight, long, and rounded—simply God's most perfect masterpiece.

The hollowed-out back design revealed that sexy spinal groove, extending all the way above her perky buttocks.

Her cold and abstinent temperament paired with this bold outfit.

This gap moe was simply lethal.

"What... what are you looking at!"

Lin Qinghan felt her whole body heating up under Gu Pingsheng's naked gaze.

She jumped into the water in a panic, kicking up a large splash.

Then she quickly swam to the point furthest from Gu Pingsheng, turning her back to him and leaving everyone with only a stunning view of her back.

"Heh."

Gu Pingsheng chuckled and tilted his head back to take a sip of wine.

This is the life... The heat from the hot spring rose in steam.

Everyone's cheeks were flushed from the steam.

Ye Hongyu's technique was indeed good.

Gu Pingsheng felt much of the soreness in his shoulders relieved.

Only... this woman's hands were becoming increasingly restless.

They slowly slid from his shoulders to his chest, then down along his abs... "Ahem."

Gu Pingsheng coughed lightly and caught that misbehaving little hand.

"A massage is a massage. Don't touch where you shouldn't."

"Oh, I just wanted to check if the Captain's muscles have gone soft."

Ye Hongyu didn't blush even after being caught; instead, she took the opportunity to press her body against him.

Her full softness pressed against Gu Pingsheng's back through the thin swimsuit.

That sensation was enough to make one's blood boil.

"Captain, let's play a game!"

Just then, Lele suddenly popped her head out of the water, breaking the sultry atmosphere.

She held a small waterproof ball and excitedly made a suggestion.

"Play what?"

Gu Pingsheng raised an eyebrow and subtly pushed Ye Hongyu away a bit.

"Underwater hide and seek!"

Lele pointed to the massive hot spring pool.

"One person is the 'it,' and the others hide in the water or the mist."

"Whoever gets caught has to accept a punishment!"

"What's the punishment?"

Su Ruan also became interested and asked with wide eyes.

"Hmm..."

Lele tilted her head in thought, then suddenly gave a mischievous grin.

"The person caught has to give the seeker a kiss!"

"What?!"

Lin Qinghan suddenly turned around, looking shocked.

"What... what kind of punishment is that?"

"What's the matter? Is Madam Adjutant afraid to play?"

Ye Hongyu gave her a provocative look.

"Or are you afraid of being caught by the Captain?"

"Who... who's afraid!"

Lin Qinghan's competitive spirit was piqued, and she said through gritted teeth.

"I'll play!"

"Great! Then the Captain is 'it'!"

Lele made the final decision.

Gu Pingsheng smiled helplessly.

These girls really knew how to have fun.

However... looking at the expanse of fair legs and the graceful figures barely visible in the mist.

This game didn't seem bad at all.

"Alright, I'll count to ten."

Gu Pingsheng turned around and closed his eyes.

"One, two, three..."

The sound of splashing water rang out.

The girls scattered.

Some dove to the bottom, some hid behind rockeries, and some vanished into the thick mist.

"Ten! Ready or not, here I come!"

Gu Pingsheng turned around abruptly.

The pool's surface was empty, with only the white mist drifting.

But he could feel the undercurrents surging beneath the water.

He took a deep breath and dove in.

The underwater world was a different scene.

The clear pool water shimmered under the refraction of sunlight.

Several pairs of beautiful legs swayed gently in the water, like a school of startled fish.

Gu Pingsheng swam over silently like a shark.

His target was clear.

The figure hiding in the corner, trying to curl herself into a ball.

It was Lin Qinghan.

She was holding her breath underwater, her long hair fanning out like a blooming black lotus.

Seeing Gu Pingsheng swim toward her, she tried to flee in a panic.

But the resistance of the water made her movements sluggish.

Gu Pingsheng grabbed her ankle.

The smooth, silky touch made his heart flutter.

Lin Qinghan struggled, but she couldn't break free at all.

Gu Pingsheng used the momentum to pull her into his arms.

The two embraced tightly underwater.

Through the thin swimsuits, each other's body temperature and heartbeats were clearly discernible.

Lin Qinghan's eyes widened as she looked at the face inches away.

Bubbles escaped from her lips, carrying a hint of panic.

Gu Pingsheng pointed upward with a mischievous grin.

The two surfaced.

"Hah..."

Lin Qinghan gasped for air, her face so red it looked like it might drip blood.

Water droplets fell from her eyelashes, making her look pitifully beautiful.

"Caught you."

Gu Pingsheng pinned her against the pool wall, his hands braced on either side of her body, forming an intimate circle.

"A bet's a bet, Adjutant."

"The punishment is..."

He lowered his head, his gaze falling on her rosy lips.

Lin Qinghan's heart beat as fast as a drum.

She watched Gu Pingsheng's face getting closer and closer, and instinctively closed her eyes.

Her eyelashes trembled like a butterfly waiting to be plucked.

Just as their lips were about to touch.

Boom—!

A loud explosion suddenly came from the center of the hot spring.

The originally calm water surface instantly erupted in massive ripples.

A scorching air wave, mixed with the smell of sulfur, rushed toward them.

"Ah!"

The girls screamed and stood up from the water.

Gu Pingsheng's eyes narrowed, and he quickly pulled Lin Qinghan behind him.

He turned his head toward the center of the pool.

He saw the water there boiling violently, as if some gargantuan creature was about to burst out.

"It seems..."

Gu Pingsheng narrowed his eyes, and the [Thousand Mechanism Transformation] in his hand instantly turned into a long blade.

"Our vacation is going to end early."
