Want to Ascend? Then Fall in Love

Chapter 22 – Want To Touch It

Shen Qingxian walked towards the spiritual spring. When his smooth, beautiful toes touched the water, the ripples formed seemed to shake the whole forest.

He went into the water, his body connected with the spiritual spring water, and his ink-colored hair spread out, like a mantle of stars falling down, as if the heavens and earth had flipped around. 

An impulse suddenly rose in Gu Jianshen: he wanted to pick Shen Qingxian up, because this spiritual spring wasn’t washing his body, but defiling it.

What qualifications did it have to touch him? What qualifications did it have to surround him? What qualifications did this ethereal spiritual water have to be so intimate with him?

“Your Majesty…” Shen Qingxian leaned against the side of the pool and smiled at him, “Together ba.”

Gu Jianshen suddenly returned to his senses, and his blue eyes turned completely red, a brightly colored shining red, with an aggressive desire that could no longer be hidden. 

Shen Qingxian’s thin lips rose slightly; he liked this appearance of his very much. 

——Sure enough, this pair of red eyes should be arrogant and domineering.

Gu Jianshen walked straight to him. Although he entered the water, because of the spiritual qi wrapped around his body, the water couldn’t get close to him at all, so he didn’t even get wet.

Shen Qingxian looked at him.

The next moment, Gu Jianshen protected him with his spiritual qi and swept away all the spring water that was getting in the way. 

With sparkling and crystal-clear snow-like skin and a body like a dream, this person embodied the word perfection to the extreme.

Gu Jianshen stared at him without blinking. Shen Qingxian was not uncomfortable with this at all; instead, he said with a smile, “What is Your Majesty doing?”

Gu Jianshen said, “It’s not qualified to be close to you.”

Shen Qingxian’s eyes were full of smiles. “It’s just water.”

How could there exist people who even got jealous of water?

Gu Jianshen said, “Shishu is really too mesmerizing.”

Just saying that, he longed to kiss those lightly colored lips. 

White fingers blocked the path between the two of them, and Shen Qingxian looked at him with a smile.

Gu Jianshen raised his eyebrows. “What does Shishu mean by this?”

Shen Qingxian said, “I actually want to ask Your Majesty what the meaning of this is.”

Gu Jianshen stared at him. “Shishu has tempted me in all kinds of ways. I thought that it must be that…”

Shen Qingxian interrupted him, “How did I tempt you?”

Gu Jianshen froze.

Shen Qingxian’s body didn’t move, but he did release some spiritual qi. The spiritual spring water that had been driven away now rushed up and completely engulfed the two people, soaking both Shen Qingxian’s body and Gu Jianshen’s clothes.

He then said slowly, “I just love this spring and wanted to have a rest. How did that turn into tempting you?”

Based on just these words, what Shen Qingxian had just said wasn’t inaccurate at all.

He hadn’t really done anything ah, he had just happened to see a spiritual spring and wanted to soak it. You couldn’t wear clothes while soaking in a spiritual spring, right? So he took off his clothes and entered the water after that, then kindly invited Gu Jianshen to soak with him… There really was no temptation contained in any of these words!

However…his behavior was all temptation.

Even Shen Qingxian’s appearance of raising his lips and smiling at this time had seduced Gu Jianshen’s heart into itching. 

Shen Qingxian then deliberately tapped him with his slender fingertips. “Your Majesty, why is your body so hot?”

Gu Jianshen’s thin lips closed tightly, and he looked at him fixedly.

Shen Qingxian teased him, “If you still keep being so hot, I’m afraid the spiritual spring will dry up.”

Gu Jianshen really wanted to stop up this guy’s mouth, making it so that he could only let out broken moans. 

But he couldn’t….

Shen Qingxian.

The number one person of the heavenly dao. 

If he really used force, it would become truly hard to say who was stronger. 

Gu Jianshen looked away and calmed down. 

——This was the first time in his life being led around by the nose; it was very fresh and interesting.

Gu Jianshen turned around and stepped ashore.

His clothes were all wet and tightly clung to his body. Instead of looking like he was in a sorry state, the sexy lines of his body were now perfectly outlined.

Shen Qingxian looked at him with great interest. “You’re not going to come and try? The spiritual spring waters feel very good.”

He had thought that Gu Jianshen was beating a retreat, but unexpectedly, this guy’s lips quirked up, and he said in a low voice, “With Shishu inviting me, how could I dare not obey?”

Saying that, he undid his belt and took off his dripping wet clothes. 

Shen Qingxian remained calm and composed as he looked at him.

Gu Jianshen didn’t look back at him, slowly loosening his hair tie. At the moment his hair scattered free, there was a red flash, and in an instant, red scattered all about, like a scarlet flame burning in the horizon.

Shen Qingxian’s eyes suddenly brightened.

Red hair… What beautiful red hair!

Just his pale skin and red eyes were so beautiful, but now adding on this abnormally beautiful red hair….

Shen Qingxian even forgot to blink.

Gu Jianshen glanced at him and continued to take off his inner robes.

His complexion was pale, but his figure was strong. He wasn’t as cold and thin as Shen Qingxian; he was more powerful and sexy, with every inch of muscle in the exact right place. Having more would look bad, and having less would also not work. His accumulated strength displayed the ultimate sexiness.

In fact, none of this would make Shen Qingxian unable to tear his gaze away. 

What really made his pupils shrink were the red lines that rippled from Gu Jianshen’s shoulders to his waist.

To enter the dao through blood, you would eventually be trapped.

This was a taboo symbol; it could only be achieved at a great price and was a mark of great viciousness and ferocity. 

But it was also so beautiful.

Shen Qingxian wanted to have a look at the real Gu Jianshen, and now he was seeing most of him. 

He was even more mesmerizing than he had imagined. 

Gu Jianshen walked down, and the spiritual spring water didn’t cross his legs and his waist before meeting those bright forbidden marks. 

Suddenly, Shen Qingxian understood that mood—

That mood where he wanted to drive away the spiritual spring waters and not let it touch him. 

It was too beautiful—a perfect body, perfect lines, a perfect red.

Gu Jianshen leaned back against the side of the spring and said lazily, “This spiritual spring is indeed really good.”

Shen Qingxian: “…..”

Gu Jianshen was very far away from him. Each person occupied one side of the spring, very much in the spirit of keeping well water and river water separate. 

Shen Qingxian’s heart was itchy, and he moved towards Gu Jianshen’s side. 

Gu Jianshen pretended not to see him.

Shen Qingxian came to his side and reached out to touch his shoulder.

That was where the blood mark began, the brightest and best looking, glistening moisture trickling down. 

The moment his fingers were about to touch, Gu Jianshen grabbed his hand.

“What does Shishu want to do?”

Shen Qingxian stared at his body and said, “Want to touch it ma.”

Looking at him, Gu Jianshen found this both funny and infuriating. 

This double-standards guy; Gu Jianshen couldn’t touch him, but it was fine if he touched Gu Jianshen. He wouldn’t let him touch him, and he had to act coquettish. 

Thinking this, Gu Jianshen couldn’t hold down the corners of his mouth.

But he had to pretend to be proper. “If you do that, I will misunderstand.”

Shen Qingxian didn’t lift his head. “Misunderstand what?”

Gu Jianshen said, “Misunderstand that Shishu is seducing me.”

Shen Qingxian: “……”

Gu Jianshen pinched his slender fingers and said, “Shishu… Let me kiss you, and I’ll let you touch.”

Shen Qingxian suddenly looked up and accurately caught the joking expression in Gu Jianshen’s eyes. 

This bastard was actually trying to coerce him. 

Not touching it, who wants that?!

Shen Qingxian suddenly got up and left the spiritual spring .

His task was completed, and he was too lazy to put his clothes back on with his own hands. Instead, he cast a spell and became a little boy again. 

The mini Shen Qingxian stood neatly on the bank, raised his chin, and said, “We’re going.”

From beginning to end, this attitude was very different.

Gu Jianshen looked at him. “Not soaking anymore?”

Shen Qingxian tried very hard to take his eyes off of him. “Put on your clothes and go kill cows.” He said these eight words while gnashing his teeth. 

Gu Jianshen teased him, “If Shishu likes it, you can stare longer.” Unfortunately, he could look, but he couldn’t touch. 

Shen Qingxian turned his head. “I don’t like it.”

If he didn’t look so reluctant, his words would be somewhat believable. 

Gu Jianshen said, “If you don’t like it, then forget it.” Saying that, he came out of the water. 

Originally, he could put on his clothes by casting a spell, but Gu Jianshen just didn’t take that route. He picked up his soaking wet clothes and slowly squeezed the water out of them. “How can I wear these clothes when they are so wet?”

Shen Qingxian glanced at him, glanced at him again, and then glanced at him yet again….

Gu Jianshen winked at him.

Shen Qingxian wanted to say at that time: Kiss, kiss, kiss, let’s quickly kiss. After you kiss me, let me thoroughly stare at your body….

No way!

This wasn’t a matter of a kiss or not, but of losing by compromising.

How could he lose to a Heart Domain demonic cultivator?

Shen Qingxian heaved a sigh and cast a spell while his heart dripped with blood. He dried Gu Jianshen’s clothes and helped him dress neatly.

Gu Jianshen even said, “You really aren’t going to consider it?”

The youth’s tender voice was as cold as ice. “Go kill cows for me!”

Gu Jianshen was in a good mood. He saluted and respectfully said, “As you command.”

Shen Qingxian’s eyes widened again once he caught sight of the strands of hair sliding down his shoulder.

Fortunately, Gu Jianshen soon covered up his hair color, and Shen Qingxian saw with his own eyes as the red was engulfed by the black. Shen Qingxian seemed to return to thousands of years ago and recalled his depressed mood when he was pulled out from his gold and silver nest by his shizun….

The two of them collected a total of forty pieces of cowhide. Because the quality of the cowhides was excellent, they were rated as excellent, and they became qualified to choose one of three tasks.

The reason why Shen Qingxian chose to do this task was to clear the “farming and weaving” task. 

Unfortunately, he was unlucky and didn’t clear it. He took the task of delivering letters to the city, and Gu Jianshen naturally did the same as him.

Returning to the little house, Shen Qingxian checked the jade scroll.

The thirteenth task of taking off clothes had been marked complete, and a new task had appeared. 

“Fifteen, kiss Gu Jianshen once.”

The jade slip was already much like a dead pig not fearing boiling water; it had released such a “terrifying” task, but it still hadn’t dimmed. 

Shen Qingxian paused, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

When he entered the house, he immediately asked Gu Jianshen, “Does what you said before still count?”

Gu Jianshen didn’t know what he was going to say.

Shen Qingxian turned back into an adult, approached him, and said softly, “If we kiss, you’ll let me touch?”

Isn’t this cool, Your Majesty, say if this is cool or not!

Ha ha ha!
