Chapter 1298 How cute *
"Why is everyone around that bastard so monstrous?"
One of the Divine Stage Dragons couldn't help but question as he glanced at the woman walking in front of him.
"How can every single one of them be a never seen before genius? This makes no sense! Even if they cultivate faster than others, doesn't that actually put them at a disadvantage? How can they be stronger than almost all the cultivators at their level?"
The Dragons couldn't believe it.
They had already accepted that man was a monster, a being who could defeat the previous Dragon Lord in a one-on-one battle couldn't be explained with any other word but even so...
Geniuses didn't grow on trees, as amazing as the presence of one genius was, it also reduces the chances of finding another one but...
"To think she would break the record and enter the ranks of top 20..."
"Don't forget that these records are being registered ever since the Trial Towers were established, even the exceptional beings who went to the Ancestral Order or were already part of it took the same trials and their scores were recorded in it as well. That makes that woman a Dragon whose potential is amongst the Top 20 Dragons that have ever existed in the world."
"Monster..."
The Dragons continued to chat, Ember, on the other hand, continued to walk forward and looked around before narrowing her eyes.
Then, she glanced in a certain direction sensing that something strange was happening there, however before she could look too much into it.
"Do you girls plan to kill me or something?"
She heard a playful voice.
Ember turned around and her eyes fell on Nux, a smile appeared on her face but in the next instant, the smile disappeared, and,
"You are late."
She spoke, and her expression was similar to the time when Nux first met the General of the Woods Dynasty.
Nux stared at the Dragon in front of him with a lost look on his face.
Unlike the other Dragons, Ember's eyes hadn't turned golden color, she had kept her original, red color, the Dragon Horns on her face were a combination of Red and Black color, giving them an ominous shade. Her Black Red hair was flowing with the winds, giving her an otherworldly charm.
Ember's features were strong to begin with, however, with the Dragon Blood now flowing into her veins, her charm had shot through the roof.
She also seemed to have regained her previously confident self.
*Ember Picture*
"Some matters held me up," Nux replied.
Ember narrowed her eyes and Nux just chuckled,
"I was preparing the place the two of us would be spending our time in after this."
Ember tilted her head in confusion, Nux however, glanced at his wife, and with his eyes shining in intense possessiveness, he stared right into Ember's eyes and,
"I already missed my chance once, the same won't be happening again. You are coming with me, Ember Leander."
"I still need to work."
In the end, however, Ignatia closed her eyes and sighed. Making her mind, she turned around, wanting to continue to tend to her things, the expectant smile on Ember's face, however, still hadn't left her mind.
...
On the other side, Nux who had thrown Ember to the bed was walking towards him slowly.
Ember who glanced at him laughed out loud,
"If you are this slow, I might leave."
"Why don't you then?"
Nux questioned back. Ember tilted her head and then, she saw a big, demonic smile on Nux's face,
"My slow walk is your last chance, it would still take me 10 seconds to reach the bed, these are the last 10 seconds you will have to decide and run away, Ember Leander.
The last 10 seconds you have to keep your newly found Dragon Pride, or I will be crushing it into countless pieces."
Nux's words echoed through the ground, his golden eyes were continuously transitioning between golden and purple, this just showed just how much he was holding back his latent Incubus abilities from acting out.
Ember, who was looking into those eyes noticed that her body had frozen.
It wasn't Nux, he didn't use any abilities to do it, it was her body. No matter how much her mind wanted her to move, her heart had already decided, whatever that was coming next, her body and her heart wanted it.
Heck, Ember could already feel her little sister tremble as Nux continued to walk close to her.
"You aren't moving, Ember."
Nux chuckled. Ember clenched her fists as she glared at Nux, her 'glare' however, to others, looked no different than eyes that had lost their shine, the battle hadn't even started and Ember was already in a pretty bad position.
"10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5..."
And to make matters worse, Nux started the countdown.
"2... 1... and that's time up."
Nux spoke as he then placed his knee on the bed and climbed up and at the same time, placed his hand on Ember's forehead to push her onto the bed, forcing her to lie down.
Without waiting any further, he climbed right on top of her. His golden eyes looking right into Ember's, the two stared at each other, the distance between them was so close that Ember's lips formed a pout on her own, expecting a kiss but of course,
This wasn't a pleasure time.
It was torture time.
Nux kissed her forehead, then her eyes, her nose, her cheeks, her chin, and then even the side of her mouth, however, their lips didn't touch.
Ember, who could tell what he was trying to do, pulled back her lips in resistance.
Since he didn't wish to kiss, she didn't want it either!
Seeing that, Nux just chuckled.
"How cute."
