“Xiaoxiao, don’t start refining medicine tonight. We have to go to the auction house tomorrow morning, and if you get too focused, you might not get enough sleep.”
Jiang Yao looked at his younger lover who had come to the dining table, seemingly a bit absentminded.
“I have been trying to change this pill formula I found recently, but it is a bit more troublesome than I had expected.”
Luo Xiao frowned as he remembered the countless explosions that he had experienced.
It was so bad that he had needed to clean himself before exiting his refining room to ensure that Jiang Yao would not get angry with him, but he really wished to succeed in this experiment.
“Aren’t you curious about the patrons that will be visiting the auction house, and how much wealth our items will bring?”.ᴄᴏᴍ
Jiang Yao could see that the experiment that Luo Xiao was undergoing in the refining room was enough to cause his mind to linger, and that he even felt that the auction was less important, so he began to tempt the younger man.
Fortunately, Jiang Yao was very familiar with his lover, and the words he picked made Luo Xiao struggle for a moment, before he decided that the pill formula he was creating would not be going anywhere, and that he could continue to look into it later.
“Well, in that case, I will wait with my experiment until later. Do you have any news about which highly ranked experts will show up at the auction?”
Luo Xiao’s eyes were glistening with excitement. Every item that was going to be put up for auction belonged to the two of them, so they had no interest in participating in the bidding wars, but to him, it would be great if many rich experts showed up and began fighting in order to win the treasures.
The more who wanted these items, the more money he would earn at the end of the day.
This wealth was actually not that necessary for him, but he could not shake the feeling of wanting to gather as many riches as possible. He felt that this wealth would be able to give him a certain degree of security.
“As far as I am aware, the tickets to attend this auction have been extremely sought after. Everyone has fought to get a place at the auction, and the ones with the most wealth have naturally begun to liquidise their assets to ensure that they have enough spirit crystals to take away the things they were aiming for.”
These words swept away the final regret in Luo Xiao’s mind, and his eyes shone with excitement. Jiang Yao felt his heart melt in happiness, and gently wrapped his arms around the young man’s shoulders to drag him into his warm embrace.
Luo Xiao enjoyed the closeness and rested his head against Jiang Yao’s shoulders as he embraced the firm and steady waist in front of him.
Leaning into the warm embrace, Luo Xiao felt at ease. He was able to enjoy the present and look forward to the future because Jiang Yao was by his side. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Back when he lived in Jinwei Village, he was like a canary in a birdcage. He could look outside, but it was impossible for him to stretch his wings and fly.
He had many dreams for as long as he could remember, but as the years went by, their splendor paled, and every day became ordinary.
He had lost the excitement in life, he only lived to accompany his adopted father, and he did not know what his purpose in life was.
Although he had now found the path to take, he understood that the price to pay was built on the human lives that had been lost in Jinwei Village.
Even after knowing that the man who had raised him all these years was not his biological father, Luo Xiao still felt grateful towards this man, and the loss of his life was also an important lesson for him that he would never forget.
Jiang Yao looked at the young man who was snuggling against his chest. While Luo Xiao merely wished to feel the warmth of his lover, Jiang Yao could feel an uncontrollable fire igniting within his heart and spreading through every vein in his body.
The restlessness made his body react, and the heat increased. The young man was not aware of the influence he had on Jiang Yao, and he was so deep in thought that he did not even notice the demon’s breathing turning heavy and his eyes deepening.
Luo Xiao and Jiang Yao had been together for a long time, but their most intimate actions were hugs and kisses.
Even now, when they hugged and snuggled together like this, the clothes blocked almost all skin contact, but Jiang Yao could hardly control himself.
Oh, how he wished to make this young boy his own, but he understood that there were certain things that had to be done in the right order.
Luo Xiao was an adult when considering the customs of this continent, but Jiang Yao also knew that many aspects were foreign to the young man.
He had never been close to anyone before, and while Jiang Yao did lust for his body, he longed for this young man to accompany him during the rest of their lives. He did not want to do anything that could wrong the young man, so instead he wished to wait for Luo Xiao to take the initiative.
However, the burning blood was almost eroding his reason, so he took a deep breath before tightening his arms and almost embedding the young man into his embrace.
“You have to be careful in the future. I am a demon, and it is very hard for me to resist temptation.”
Jiang Yao suddenly said such a sentence with no previous hints, causing Luo Xiao to feel perplexed. What kind of temptation had he experienced?’
