Chapter 192 - Embrace, Beginning

Their eyes met.

A pair of awkward moments.

A pair of playful eyes.

"Almost a billion short."

An Zhen said with a smile.

It's 100 million, not one.

He almost fell for Snow Empress's trick.

In the virtual world, nothing can escape his notice.

Moreover, Snow Empress is his Soul Spirit.

It's important to know that the Soul Spirit Contract is based on the Master-Servant Contract and has been modified and altered. Everything about the Snow Empress is entrusted to his soul. While he can't say that he can hear every thought in her mind, he can still sense her simple psychological emotions.

"What?" Snow Empress's expression was cold, carrying a hint of imperial majesty.

An Zhen reached out his hand.

He cupped Snow Empress's cheeks in his hands.

"Screw it—"

Snow Empress's voice abruptly stopped.

The black-haired boy forcefully rubbed the Far North ruler's cheeks with both hands, "Trying to fool me, huh?!"

With a thought, An Zhen unleashed an invisible force carrying irresistible pressure upon Snow Empress. Snow Empress felt as if she were encased in a large block of ice, unable to move her limbs at all, with no room to move. Her body was also being pressed down. If one were to say what her most powerful weapon was at this moment, it would be her teeth and tongue. Only the organs in her head could move.

Snow Empress's soft cheeks were cool and refreshing, like jelly, with an excellent feel. They gently changed shape in An Zhen's hands, and the playful look in An Zhen's eyes grew stronger.

The majesty of Far North's dominance has been shattered.

The aura of the Ice Empress, so lofty and powerful, vanished without a trace.

" An Zhen!" Snow Empress uttered a mumbled, indistinct sound.

"What's wrong?"

Snow Empress gazed at An Zhen with her beautiful sky-blue eyes, a complex mix of emotions flashing through her mind: resentment, shyness, anger, and helplessness. Finally, she closed her eyes, her expression suddenly calming down, as if she had given up resisting and was letting An Zhen do as he pleased.

Although Snow Empress had previously disdained and needed to, she knew that the struggle of prey often aroused the interest of hunters.

Now that she depends entirely on An Zhen, how can she possibly fight against him?

"Why?"

An Zhen was puzzled.

Why did you suddenly give up?

Releasing his grip on Snow Empress's cheek, An Zhen gently poked the girl's cheek with his finger.

Snow Empress opened one eye, glanced at An Zhen, and said in a very calm tone, "Do as you please."

If you utter a single word, I'll consider myself the loser.

Snow Empress really wanted to add that last sentence.

But why did Snow Empress feel such a strong sensation after An Zhen played with her feet? Were her feet very sensitive? Snow Empress was puzzled and confused as this was the first time another creature had touched this part of her body.

"Whatever?" An Zhen reached out and pinched a strand of Snow Empress's hair, toying with it between his fingertips. A friendly smile appeared on the boy's face. "How could I forcibly bully my friend when she doesn't want to?"

An Zhen still has certain bottom lines. After all, this isn't his Snow Empress NPC doll, but the soul of Snow Empress.

Snow Empress remained silent.

The white-haired girl lay quietly on the bed, without saying a word.

An Zhen dispelled the constraints.

The next second, the black-haired boy lay down next to the white-haired girl, playing with Snow Empress's hair. "I'm curious, did Snow Empress really kiss me for the first time just out of curiosity?"

Snow Empress turned to her side, lying there and gazing at An Zhen. An indescribable aura emanated from her, like that of a languid empress. A playful smile graced her cool and aloof face. "Otherwise what?"

"You don't actually think that someone who has lived for seven hundred thousand years would fall in love with you, do you?"

Her beautiful, sky-blue eyes gazed at An Zhen, a strange emotion flashing across them.

She did not love An Zhen.

But An Zhen is very special to her.

Good friend.

Brother-in-law.

And the host.

She staked her future and everything on An Zhen.

There's also an indescribable sense of intimacy.

An Zhen gently shook his head.

"So, how is Snow Empress feeling?"

"Well enough."

Snow Empress's cheeks flushed slightly, but she still nodded gently.

It was a strange feeling I'd never experienced before, but it was nice. And the strange feeling was even stronger the time An Zhen kissed me later.

The two were exchanging words, as if discussing a math problem.

"How did it feel when Snow Empress's jade feet were just played with?"

"Not bad." Snow Empress's cheeks flushed even redder, and her expression turned somewhat annoyed. "What, are you trying to humiliate me in this way?"

"How could that be?" An Zhen shook his head. He sweared to God that he had never thought of it that way. He was just asking a simple question. "As I said before, I just wanted to take care of my partner."

Compared to the tough exterior that Snow Empress presents.

An Zhen believed Hyotei's words more.

Because he truly sensed the occasional loneliness in Snow Empress's heart.

Even a strong heart has its moments of tenderness.

"That..."

Looking at the beautiful body before him, An Zhen asked, " Snow Empress, have you ever thought about trying something else?"

An Zhen's words were based on Snow Empress's earlier initiative in kissing her.

Snow Empress's eyes widened in surprise.

Complex emotions rippled through my mind.

How about trying something else?

Some sounds she had heard in the past suddenly echoed in her mind for some reason.

Her slender fingers gently caressed her dress. A restless feeling stirred within Snow Empress. Snow Empress was very curious about the concept of couples and partners, not only from novels and comics but also from the daily interactions she had witnessed and heard from Bing'er and An Zhen. Nearly seven hundred thousand years had made Snow Empress unafraid of loneliness, and she would never have been able to accept such a thing in the past. But now, a very clear example was right before her eyes.

"I have no interest in such things," Snow Empress said seriously.

"Then why did Snow Empress kiss me just now?" An Zhen said with a hint of amusement. "She said it was punishment for playing with my feet, but Snow Empress's initiative in kissing me is not punishment at all."

Snow Empress:...

Snow Empress's gaze unconsciously drifted elsewhere.

"I...cannot betray Bing'er."

Snow Empress felt she had already wronged her best friend so much by kissing An Zhen behind Bing'er's back, so how could she possibly try anything more?

An Zhen reached out and hugged Snow Empress's slender waist.

"If you don't tell and I don't tell, how will a third person know?"

Because this was originally an order given by a third person.

A beautiful, elfin girl—to be precise, Ice Sky Snow Woman is an elf born from the essence of heaven and earth.

Without encountering any resistance, An Zhen pulled Snow Empress into his arms. The black-haired boy and the white-haired beauty embraced each other, Snow Empress pressed against An Zhen, her cool and beautiful body pressed against him. Their eyes met, so close that An Zhen could even feel Snow Empress's breath.

An Zhen felt Snow Empress's stiff limbs.

"It's just a hug." The warm, moist air brushed against Snow Empress's fair and alluring earlobe as An Zhen gently comforted her. "Besides, since it has already happened, why not try to accept it?"

'That's true,' Snow Empress thought to herself.

'Besides, this time An Zhen took the initiative to approach him; it wasn't that she wronged Bing'er.'

A pair of fair, jade-like arms moved gently, and slowly, without anyone noticing, they had embraced An Zhen. Snow Empress's cheek rested on An Zhen's chest, her cold skin feeling the heat beneath his clothes, and a strange feeling welled up inside her.

"Just this once, don't tell Bing'er."

"Hmm." And you say you're not lonely?

Just a hug.

...

Reality.

Another day has passed.

An Zhen remained in the room.

True Hongchen.

Although An Zhen intends to use this identity in the Sun Moon Empire, besides the siblings Mirror Hongchen and Smile Meng, there is another person— Xu Tianran —who also knows the connection between the identities of True Hongchen and An Zhen.

An Zhen, who was studying at Shrek Academy and won the Soul Fighting Tournament on behalf of Shrek Academy, suddenly returned to the Sun Moon Empire.

Regardless of whether it would arouse suspicion, An Zhen did not want that to happen.

In the spacious and bright bedroom, a piece of metal emitting green fluorescence is embedded in the ceiling above. A spiritual imprint is imprinted on it, forming a strange character. A spiritual light full of life energy emanates from it, and the not-so-small bedroom becomes an ocean of life energy for a moment.

"So comfortable~"

The black-haired boy rested his head on the strong, beautiful, and long legs of a stunning blonde girl. The Life Force in the air flowed as if it had encountered a vortex, and was absorbed into the bodies of An Zhen and An Qiuer.

On the other side, the purple-haired ice queen lay face down on the bed, her long purple hair draped over the bed swaying gently. A purplish-black power enveloped the walls and floor of the room, and the remaining Life Power that wanted to dissipate to other places was absorbed into her body.

"Um?"

An Zhen suddenly looked towards the gate.

"Click~"

The door was opened.

One person glanced at the room, which showed signs of use, and then quickly walked to the bedroom door.

Push open the door.

"Brother Zhen!"

The girl's joyful voice rang out.

The next second, her deep blue eyes froze in shock.

An incredible scene came into Meng Hongchen's view.

Little Zhen was lying on An Qiuer's lap. Although she was a little jealous, it didn't bother her; she had already prepared herself to accept it as a fact.

Can...

A purple-haired beauty, none other than the Hell Demonic Dragon King, Murasaki, her alluring figure concealed by a light veil, knelt and leaned down beside Little Zhen. She…she…

"Hmm."

Zi Ji completely ignored the commotion behind her.

The purple-haired beauty sat up and tilted her fair neck back.

"Sister Xiaomeng." An Zhen sat up, and the Virtual World reflected her, her clothes neatly appearing on her body.

"Hmm." Meng Hongchen pursed her cherry lips.

I thought that after Xiao Zhen returned to the Sun Moon Empire, she would be the only woman by his side, but unexpectedly, there's An Qiuer, and now even that Hell Demonic Dragon King, Zi Ji. Why would Xiao Zhen do that kind of thing with this ferocious beast?!

Despite being jealous, Meng Hongchen didn't forget the important things.

"Brother Xiao Zhen." Meng Hongchen strode to the bedside and affectionately hugged An Zhen's arm in a show of defiance. "Grandpa asked me to tell you that in half a day, that is, in the afternoon, a Ninth-Level Soul Engineer will be invited to his laboratory to participate in the development of a Level 9 spirit tool."

But what does this have to do with Xiao Zhen's brother?

Grandpa sounded very anxious.

Smile Meng and his sister are unaware of the details of the plan.

"Oh?"

A flicker of excitement flashed in An Zhen's eyes.

Here we go.
