People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

Chapter 554: Love with a kiss

In the courtyard, the night deepened, and the watery moonlight poured down, covering this world with a layer of silver gauze.

The breeze blew gently, lifting a few strands of Medusa's hair on the side of her body. The hair danced playfully in the air, as if playing with the breeze.

Xiao Ling was sitting aside, and inadvertently, a faint scent of hair came into his nose with the breeze. The fragrance was subtle and lingering, just like the fragrance of the most fragrant flowers blooming in spring, which made him feel a little refreshed.

"Whether you will go with me or not, I don't know. It all depends on your decision." Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.

He seemed not to care about Medusa's half-smile, and then glanced aside and spoke casually, but there was a hint of expectation in his words that he himself was not aware of.

The breeze blew, bringing with it the rustling sound of leaves, as if they were also waiting for Medusa's response. The atmosphere in the entire courtyard suddenly became a little subtle.

Medusa looked at Xiao Ling quietly, and when she saw his evasive gaze and his hesitant expression as if he wanted to say something but pretended to be indifferent, she suddenly felt angry.

She secretly thought, this guy, usually he is so proactive, enthusiastic and caring towards other women, why is he always so shy when it comes to her, not even daring to speak directly, as if he has some huge concerns.

It's really annoying. What am I in his heart? Am I not as good as others?

The more Medusa thought about it, the angrier she became. Her originally cold face now showed a hint of anger. She bit her lips slightly and stared at Xiao Ling.

"Haha, Master Xiao Ling is now an eighth-grade top alchemist, and is known as the best alchemist in Zhongzhou. In terms of strength, he is also unparalleled. At a young age, he has already reached the high-level Dou Zun level. With the skills of a talisman master, he is even capable of fighting against Dou Sheng masters. But who would have thought that such a powerful person would be so hesitant in front of me now? If this word gets out, wouldn't it be ridiculous?"

Medusa laughed coldly, her words full of provocation. There was a bit of scrutiny in her beautiful eyes as she looked straight at Xiao Ling.

After hearing what Medusa said, Xiao Ling couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.

He thought to himself that he was always proactive with other women, but when it came to Medusa, for some reason he subconsciously didn't want to express his feelings so directly.

Maybe I'm not mentally prepared yet, or maybe it's the weird thoughts and bad tastes hidden deep in my heart that are playing tricks on me.

In short, facing such a scene, he was really a little embarrassed.

Originally, Xiao Ling had a little plan in mind, wondering if he could get this proud queen to take the initiative and express her feelings.

After all, Medusa's personality has always been arrogant and cold. It is hard to say whether she can accept that he often has intimate actions with other women.

If Xiao Ling took the initiative to break this window paper, even if they really confirmed their relationship and lived together in the future, they would still have to restrain themselves and be cautious in this regard.

But if Medusa could take this step on her own initiative, then Xiao Ling naturally wouldn't have to worry about these things, and he would be much more comfortable getting along with her in the future.

But now that he was provoked by Medusa, his original plan seemed difficult to implement. For a moment, he felt a little conflicted and didn't know what to do.

Under Medusa's stare, Xiao Ling was silent for a moment, then he sighed softly and shook his head helplessly. He finally mustered up the courage and met Medusa's gaze again. He forced a wry smile on his face and slowly said:

"To be honest, I really hope you can stay with me forever. If you just part ways with me and go your separate ways, I definitely don't want to see that happen."

Hearing Xiao Ling's words, Medusa felt somewhat satisfied. She thought to herself that although these words were not too straightforward and passionate, they were enough to show that Xiao Ling really cared about her.

However, this statement alone was far from what she had expected.

Medusa raised her chin slightly, with a hint of arrogance on her beautiful face. Then she opened her red lips slightly, stared at Xiao Ling, and asked with a hint of inquiry in her tone:

"Can I understand this as you expressing your love to me?"

Hearing Medusa's blunt words, Xiao Ling couldn't help but twitch his lips, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he subconsciously turned his gaze to the side, cleared his throat and said:

"This is not simply a question of love or not. You have been with me for so long, and you know my abilities well. It won't be long before I can break through to the realm of a ninth-grade alchemist. By then, if you continue to stay with me, it will definitely allow you to have better development, and it will also be able to more fully stimulate the potential of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python bloodline in your body, giving you a far better future than now..."

As Xiao Ling spoke, he secretly looked up at Medusa's expression, only to see that her face gradually turned cold. He immediately shut up and thought to himself that this was not good. It seemed that he could not get away with it any longer. If he did not come to a conclusion today, he was afraid that the relationship between them would be damaged.

He hesitated for a moment, then forced a smile on his face and said with gritted teeth:

"Well, if that's the case, then I won't hide it anymore, Medusa. After spending so much time with you, I've gradually been attracted to you. Whether it's your pretty face or your gentle heart under that cold exterior, they've left a deep impression on me. So... you... are you willing to be my woman?"

As he said this, Xiao Ling's heartbeat involuntarily quickened a few beats. His eyes were filled with nervousness and anticipation. He stared at Medusa, waiting for her response.

After hearing Xiao Ling's words, Medusa's face, which had been gradually turning cold, suddenly froze slightly, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

She never thought that Xiao Ling would actually make it clear. An irrepressible joy suddenly welled up in her heart, as if a trace of sweetness was quietly spreading in her heart.

But her always proud character soon caused a hint of shyness to appear on her face, and her cheeks were lightly flushed, just like peach blossoms blooming in spring, delicate and moving.

She lowered her eyes slightly, as if she didn't dare to meet Xiao Ling's fiery and nervous gaze, and her fingers unconsciously twisted the corners of her clothes. For a moment, she was a little at a loss, completely losing her usual queen-like dominance and composure.

After a while, Medusa raised her eyes slightly, the blush on her delicate face had not faded, but she pretended to be indifferent and arrogant, snorted and said:

"Anyway, you've seen me naked so many times, and you've taken advantage of me. I probably won't be able to have so many entanglements with other men in this life. Since you really take good care of me, I'll just give you the advantage with reluctance."

As she said this, she raised her chin slightly, with a hint of anger in her eyes, but the corners of her mouth seemed to be slightly raised, with a hint of imperceptible sweetness, as if she was trying hard to maintain her proud posture.

Yet she could not hide the joy in her heart, and she was just like a little girl who said one thing and meant another, without any trace of the arrogant and cold queen she usually was.

After hearing Medusa's response, Xiao Ling couldn't help but find it funny to see that she was obviously happy but still pretending to be cold and arrogant, as if she chose him because she had no other choice.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, his eyes full of doting smiles. He knew very well in his heart that Medusa was just like that. Even if she had already accepted him in her heart, she would always pretend to be strong and would not easily reveal her true feelings.

However, it is precisely because of this that she appears more lively and charming. This contrast also makes Xiao Ling find it even more interesting.

"Then please give me more guidance from now on. In the days to come, I will always protect you and will not let you suffer any injustice."

Xiao Ling had a serious look on his face, his eyes full of sincerity. He slowly stretched out his hands and gently grasped Medusa's slender hand that was casually spread on the stone table.

His movements were very gentle, as if he was holding the most precious treasure in the world in his hands. His eyes never left Medusa's face, and his words were full of unquestionable firmness, allowing Medusa to fully feel his burning and sincere heart at the moment.

Medusa nodded slightly, and looked back at Xiao Ling. Seeing his serious and sincere expression, she was moved. She immediately restrained her previous arrogant look, and her expression became solemn. She said slowly:

"If you don't let me down, I will always be by your side, accompany you for life, never leave you, spend the long years together, enjoy the myriad landscapes of this world together, even if there are storms and dark weather, I will never leave you."

After saying that, Medusa also slightly clenched Xiao Ling's hands. Her slender and soft hands conveyed a hint of warmth, as if she also conveyed her feelings completely to Xiao Ling's heart.

Under the moonlight, the atmosphere in the courtyard became more affectionate. The breeze blew gently, causing the surrounding flowers and plants to sway slightly, as if cheering for their newly confirmed feelings.

Xiao Ling stared at Medusa, his eyes full of tenderness and affection, and said softly:

"Don't worry, I, Xiao Ling, will never let you down in this life. I am willing to use this world as a witness to walk through every morning and evening with you, to see the prosperity of the world, and to go through the vicissitudes of time. Our story will be like this moonlight, long and shining."

Medusa's mouth unconsciously lifted up when she heard this. Her originally cold and beautiful face was now full of tenderness. She leaned slightly towards Xiao Ling, resting her head lightly on his shoulder, and responded softly:

"Well, I feel relieved when you say that. In the days ahead, no matter what the weather is, we will face it together."

The moonlight is like water, pouring into every corner of the courtyard, as if covering this world with a layer of dreamy silver gauze.

The surrounding flowers, plants and trees cast mottled and soft shadows under the caress of the moonlight, like a natural ink painting, quiet and beautiful.

Xiao Ling and Medusa sat next to each other, their figures pressed closely together in the moonlight, like a tender silhouette.

Xiao Ling gently put his arm around Medusa's shoulders, and Medusa leaned her head gently in his arms, her hair hanging down, exuding a faint fragrance.

A breeze blew by, lifting a few strands of hair, which fluttered gently, interweaving the two people's hair together, as if the thread of fate was quietly pulling them together, making their life trajectories closely connected from then on, unable to be separated.

Looking at Medusa's beautiful profile, Xiao Ling suddenly remembered the colorful raw stone that he had obtained by chance in the Danhui Dan Ring. He had kept the raw stone carefully since he got it, and had not found a suitable opportunity to take it out and give it to Medusa.

Looking at the stunning beauty in front of him, Xiao Ling immediately had an idea.

Then, Xiao Ling freed up one of his hands, and as he flipped his palm lightly, a brilliant light flashed, and the colorful raw stone quietly appeared in his palm.

This action naturally broke the silence. Medusa, who was originally leaning on Xiao Ling's shoulder, immediately noticed something strange. She was full of curiosity and sat up with some confusion.

A pair of beautiful eyes followed the light and cast an inquiring look towards the palm of Xiao Ling's hand. There was a bit of doubt in her eyes, wondering what Xiao Ling would take out at this time.

Within the field of vision, there was only a small stone about an inch in size lying in Xiao Ling's palm. On the stone, colorful lights were intertwined and flickering, as if all the most gorgeous colors in the world were gathered here. The light was flowing, so dazzling that people could not take their eyes away.

When Medusa looked at the colorful stone, suddenly, she felt as if a mysterious power was surging in her blood. She felt a little throbbing inexplicably, and even her delicate body could not help but tremble slightly.

Xiao Ling noticed Medusa's strangeness, and then said in a gentle voice: "This seven-colored raw stone is something I accidentally found before. I think it should be helpful for your cultivation. Now that you and I are in tune with each other, I think there is no better gift for you than this."

As he spoke, Xiao Ling gently held Medusa's hand, slowly placed the seven-colored raw stone in her palm, looked at her tenderly, and continued: "You have the blood of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python in your body. If you absorb it completely, the benefits will definitely be great. It should also improve your cultivation and bloodline."

Medusa came back to her senses, holding the colorful raw stone in her hand, feeling the warmth and the strange yet familiar breath coming from it. Her heart was filled with tenderness. She looked up at Xiao Ling, her eyes sparkling, and she said softly, "Thank you, Xiao Ling."

After saying that, Medusa closed her eyes and raised her head to kiss Xiao Ling's lips.

The soft touch made Xiao Ling stunned at first, and his brain went blank for a moment, but then, his instinctive feelings made him come back to his senses instantly. He stretched out his hand without hesitation, gently hugged Medusa's slender waist, pulled her towards him, and responded eagerly.

Under the moonlight, the two were immersed in this passionate kiss, as if the whole world was left with only each other's heartbeat and breathing. Everything around them became the most beautiful embellishment of this romantic moment, and their story, also opened a sweeter and more affectionate chapter with this kiss.

Chapter 555 Taking the Dou Sheng Bone Marrow

The early morning sunlight shines gently into the house through the mottled window lattices, giving the space a light golden hue.

The scene inside the room was a little messy, with clothes scattered everywhere. On the bed, the quilt covered half of Xiao Ling's body. Even so, it could still be seen that his upper body was naked at the moment.

Anyone who saw this scene would probably wonder whether there had been a fierce battle here last night. How shocking the scene must have been to turn this originally tidy house into such a mess.

Xiao Ling was still sleeping soundly, his steady breathing echoing softly in the quiet morning, as if he was still immersed in the dreamlike situation of last night. The corners of his mouth occasionally lifted slightly, as if something in his dream made him extremely happy, and for a moment he seemed a little naive.

Xiao Ling, who was originally immersed in a hazy dream, suddenly felt an itchy sensation at the tip of his nose. The strange feeling gently pulled his consciousness, slowly escaping from the illusory dream and gradually pulling him back to reality.

He slowly opened his eyes. His vision was blurry at first, but when it gradually became clear, he saw a pretty figure standing beside the bed.

The man's slender fingers were fiddling with a few strands of green hair. As his hands moved, the hair swayed slightly back and forth at the tip of Xiao Ling's nose, as if he was deliberately teasing him.

At this moment, there was a faint smile on Qinglin's lips, and there was a hint of playfulness and tenderness in her beautiful eyes.

The faint light of morning light sprinkled on her face, adding a touch of moving glow to her already beautiful features. The whole picture was like a beautiful painting, full of warmth and sweetness.

Seeing Xiao Ling move and slowly open his eyes, Qing Lin stopped fiddling with his hair and turned his gaze to meet Xiao Ling's slightly confused gaze. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and he said in a clear and pleasant voice:

"Master, good morning! This time you rested for a lot longer than usual."

When she said this, there seemed to be a hint of mockery in her bright eyes, and she looked at Xiao Ling with a smile.

"It's Qinglin. You girl, you are still so dishonest. How could you enter my room without permission again? You deserve to be punished." Xiao Ling came back to his senses and looked at Qinglin. He couldn't help but laugh and said in a pretended angry tone.

In fact, Xiao Ling had no complaints about Qing Lin entering his room without permission.

Ever since the two met, as long as they were not practicing but sleeping, Qing Lin would often come over like a caring little maid and take care of Xiao Ling's getting up, dressing, washing and other things. This has been the case for so many years, and it has become a habit, which also adds a different kind of warmth and intimacy to their daily interactions.

As he spoke, Xiao Ling reached out and lifted the blanket covering his body, and his naked upper body was immediately exposed to the air. He had a perfect figure, with clear muscle lines, and a unique sense of power and beauty, as if he was a carefully carved work of art.

But at this moment, there were a few scratches on the fair skin, and the shallow and deep marks crisscrossed each other, adding a sense of disorder to the originally smooth skin, as if silently telling the passionate and affectionate scene of last night, and inexplicably giving the atmosphere of this morning a special atmosphere.

"It seems that the young master was exhausted last night. He even suffered some 'work injuries'. This is really rare."

As Qing Lin spoke, she looked at Xiao Ling's flawless figure openly, without the slightest sign of embarrassment on her face. After all, she had seen such scenes many times and was used to it.

However, when her eyes noticed the criss-crossing scratches on Xiao Ling's skin, she couldn't help but curl her lips slightly, a hint of mischief flashed in her eyes, and she joked with a bit of sarcasm.

In response, Xiao Ling just chuckled and shook his head, thinking back to the scenes of last night, his heart was filled with a strange feeling.

Last night he and Medusa expressed their feelings to each other and were at a point where they could no longer suppress their emotions. Under such circumstances, a "competition" was inevitable.

Medusa already has the unique physique of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, and her physical strength is extraordinary. Xiao Ling, on the other hand, is practicing the Qingtian Hualong Jue which is specifically designed to train the physical body, and his own combat power is even more powerful.
