Chapter 708: For You… For Me…

The twigs in the fire had burned up, leaving only dim embers in the ashes to maintain the warmth in the cave.
After looking at the knitted blanket on her body and then at Hao Ren who slept on his side beside her, Su Han turned her gaze toward the light at the entrance of the cave.
The morning had come.
Being planted quietly in the ground at the entrance, the purple gold hairpin was the witness of last night’s event.
Su Han turned to look at Hao Ren and found her lying in his arms. With his upper body naked, he held her waist while he slept.
The muscular arm felt heavy and powerful.
While exhaling deeply, Su Han looked at Hao Ren who was soundly asleep again powerlessly.
“It must be his first time; he was so impatient. His stamina was so high that he did it almost all night. There probably won’t be another chance like this again. However, he got gentle afterward. And before he fell asleep, he had pulled the knitted blanket over me, leaving himself in the cold…” Su Han thought as her gaze moved to Hao Ren’s shoulders and then waist…
“Shameless! Shameless!” Su Han muttered with a blush and tossed the knitted blanket over his waist.
She sat up and saw some red stains on the yellow straw.
“I’ve become his…” Su Han put on the black tights and the purple sweater before throwing the white windbreaker over her shoulders.
She had been living all alone, and the men who had tried to get close to her all craved her beauty. Her solitary life had been good until Hao Ren, who had no idea about her identity as an inspector, entered her life abruptly.
It was the first time that Su Han felt truly taken care of by a man.
“Erm…”
Hao Ren who was lying beside Su Han woke up and groaned a little. When he saw the knitted blanket covering his waist and Su Han, he was instantly embarrassed.
He was a little poisoned yesterday and got a bit dizzy, but the poison had no aphrodisiacal effect and didn’t confuse his mind. In short, he just wasn’t able to control himself.
When he saw Su Han’s silent look and gritted teeth, he suspected that she was trying to suppress her fury. Last night, he had lost his mind in excitement and hadn’t been very considerate of her in the beginning, afraid that Su Han was going to disappear. While looking at Hao Ren with a cold frown, Su Han said, “Nothing happened last night.”
“Erm…” Hao Ren gave her a response hesitantly.
“We have a long way to go today. When will you get up?” Su Han looked at him and asked in a cold voice.
It seemed like that cold and strict Su Han had returned.
Discouraged, Hao Ren picked up his clothes in embarrassment and put them on quickly.
After pulling on her white boots, Su Han touched the wound on her lower leg before standing up with gritted teeth.
While looking at the beautiful legs that were accentuated by the black tights under the open white windbreaker, Hao Ren was aroused when he remembered how he had admired and touched her smooth legs freely last night.
Also, he was heartbroken when he saw the injury on her leg.
Of course, with the recovery of her nature essence, the injury would disappear soon, returning her legs to their previous white and flawless state.
Standing up, Su Han’s face turned a bit red when she saw Hao Ren gazing at her legs.
Tink! She pulled up her longsword which was inserted into the ground of the cave.
Seeing the flashing lights on the sword, Hao Ren immediately gathered his thoughts and combed his messy hair with his fingers before standing up.
From Su Han’s cold expression, Hao Ren felt like he had acted rashly last night since he had taken advantage of her when she was without any nature essence. Since Su Han didn’t blame him and even pretended that nothing had happened, he felt fortunate and thus didn’t dare to harbor any unrealistic ideas about their relationship.
From his point of view, he felt like the relationship between them would cool down drastically, and he would never see her again after they leave the Nine Dragon Palace.
“You… sense your realm,” Su Han looked at Hao Ren coldly and said.
“Erm?” A little baffled, Hao Ren went to the entrance of the cave and lifted his slightly sore arms, shooting out a wave of sword energies.
Bang!
More than 2,000 sword energies appeared.
Since the five-elemental sword energies couldn’t be used in the Nine Dragon Palace, the sword energies shattered in the air after flying for a few meters.
Surprised, Hao Ren felt his dragon core and realized that he had 296 unlocked openings in his dragon core!
He had not only unlocked the last four openings in Dui-Level but also reached mid-tier Xun-level!
It must be noted that the 72 openings from Xun-level to Kun-level were extremely difficult to unlock, but Hao Ren had reached middle-tier Xun-level just like this!
Standing in the cave, Su Han bit her lips when she saw Hao Ren’s pleasantly surprised expression.
She had guarded herself for more than 20 years but had submitted to him.
Hao Ren checked again and confirmed that his realm was stable. Then, he looked back at Su Han and asked tentatively, “Did you give it to me?”
Su Han looked at him and pouted her lips without explaining, thinking that he took it as a kind of extra reward.
She blushed and couldn’t answer this question! “What a dumb man he is!” she thought.
The Vital Yin Energy of the female cultivators was definitely an elixir for male cultivators, let alone the fact that Su Han was at top-tier Qian-level and close to peak Qian-level.
“Since your realm has increased, we’ll have a better chance of finding the Origin Dragon Grand Palace,” Su Han said.
Her words seemed to suggest that last night’s incident was a part of her plan to accomplish their mission in the Nine Dragon Palace.
However, Hao Ren wasn’t fooled. Despite her words, she wouldn’t have given herself away so easily since she didn’t give Qin Shaoyang, a Kun-level cultivator, any chances.
Many things caused last night’s event, and Su Han had her own reasons for doing it. However, the reason that she just mentioned was absolutely not the key factor!
“If you can surpass me one day, I don’t mind becoming your woman.” Su Han sheathed her longsword, put it at her waist, and walked past Hao Ren who stood at the entrance of the cave.
After looking at her pretty and cold figure, Hao Ren thought for a moment with his head lowered. Then, he walked over and picked up her hand before walking to the plain that was covered in flourishing plants.
It was a promise only made to Hao Ren.
