"Don't just watch me eat. Come, taste your own pastry, and you'll know if I'm lying to you."
Xiao Li took out a piece of pastry and handed it to Hu Jia.
Hu Jia quickly took it, her cherry lips slightly parted, and she took a small bite.
She had actually tasted the pastries she made before, otherwise she wouldn't have dared to give them to Xiao Li.
But the pastry she tasted now was even sweeter than when she had tried it before.
"Where are the others in your dorm? Why are you alone?" Xiao Li asked casually.
"Oh, they just went out to cultivate," Hu Jia quickly replied.
Xiao Li raised an eyebrow.
They're all out, isn't this a good opportunity?
He looked at the girl sitting opposite him.
From the beginning, Hu Jia had actually been a bit reserved and nervous.
So, Xiao Li reached out and held the girl's delicate hand.
The sudden movement made Hu Jia's delicate body tremble slightly. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but Xiao Li held it tightly, refusing to let go.
"Elder Xiao?"
Her heart suddenly started beating faster, and her gaze became anxious.
"Hu Jia, you look really beautiful today."
"Tha-thank you."
Xiao Li got up and walked in front of her, slowly leaning down.
At this moment, Hu Jia knew what he was going to do, but she didn't refuse. Instead, she felt an unprecedented nervousness.
Until her lips were kissed.
"Mmm~"
Her delicate body instantly tensed up.
The aggressive masculine scent instantly broke through her inner defenses, leaving her mind blank. She passively felt Xiao Li's presence.
After the kiss, Hu Jia's breathing became a little heavy, and a deep blush appeared on her cheeks.
Seeing that she didn't resist, Xiao Li smiled contentedly and, with a gasp from the girl, picked her up.
Her heart was both surprised and nervous, but she simply didn't resist.
She just whispered, "Xiao… Xiao Li..."
She even stopped calling him 'Elder'.
"Hu Jia, which one is your bed?" Xiao Li whispered, exhaling into her ear.
The warm breath instantly made Hu Jia's body go soft and weak.
Her face was as red as the sunset, knowing what Xiao Li was going to do next.
But in her overwhelming shyness, she just pointed to one of the beds: "Th-that one."
So Xiao Li carried her over and laid her down, then lowered his head again to kiss the girl's lips.
Mmm~
After a long kiss, Hu Jia gradually became aroused, her eyes hazy and blurred.
She didn't know why she was like this.
Before Xiao Li, she actually always hated being intimate with men.
She even used to dislike Xiao Li a lot.
But ever since she was rescued by Xiao Li, her heart had completely changed.
It was as if Xiao Li had some kind of magic. That day's heroic rescue was just a key, opening Pandora's box, making Hu Jia uncontrollably attracted to Xiao Li's presence.
So, facing Xiao Li's actions now, she didn't resist.
Rather than saying she was accommodating, it was more like she was a bit at a loss.
Until Xiao Li was no longer satisfied with her lips and grabbed her tender ankle.
Hu Jia was startled, realizing that her feet had been caught by Xiao Li and lifted upwards.
Hu Jia was already startled, but she had no time to resist, and her mind instantly went blank.
What followed was natural.
Everything was the ultimate simple pleasure... [Ding! Successfully taken down Hu Jia!]
[Reward "nine yang pure fluid"!]
[Reward "Thunder Body"!]
[Thunder Body: Lightning resistance is greatly increased, even heavenly lightning can be mostly immune to damage.]
...Looking at Hu Jia, who was drenched in fragrant sweat on the bed, Xiao Li gently caressed her face.
"Hu Jia, are you alright?"
At this moment, Hu Jia's consciousness gradually cleared up.
Thinking of what had just happened, her face was flushed with embarrassment, and she didn't react much.
Women are very strange creatures.
Originally, Hu Jia's feelings for Xiao Li couldn't even be called love.
Now, her heart even surged with more affection for Xiao Li.
She just whispered, "Xiao Li, you can't abandon me in the future."
"Silly girl, how could I bear to abandon you?"
Xiao Li lowered his head and kissed her thin lips, then grabbed her ankle again, pulling her closer.
"A-again?"
Hu Jia's heart trembled. She had been quite exhausted just now.
But Xiao Li couldn't care less, and she could only cooperate... Days passed one by one, and life was very leisurely.
During this time, Xiao Li basically alternated between being intimate with Zi Yan and Hu Jia.
The two girls also became more and more cooperative with Xiao Li, and their skills improved.
Their feelings for each other also grew deeper and deeper.
Originally, Xiao Li also had thoughts about Han Yue and was preparing to make a move.
However, before he could even act, something else happened—the fallen heart flame rioted again!
..."Boom—!"
The rioting aura of the fallen heart flame startled the entire Inner Academy.
Waves of scorching aura crashed out, even more terrifying than the previous riot!
"All students immediately evacuate the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower!"
"Repeat, all students immediately evacuate the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower!"
A solemn and urgent voice echoed throughout the Inner Academy.
Countless figures rushed out of the tower, moving away from the dangerous area.
With the experience from last time, everyone reacted much faster this time, and it didn't cause too much chaos.
Su Qian and the others also immediately arrived in front of the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower, joining forces to activate the seal and suppress the riot.
But this riot of the fallen heart flame was much stronger than the last time, and the force of the impact was also far greater than before.
This made Su Qian's expression change.
"This beast wants to break through the seal!"
"All Elders, heed my command, form the seal!"
Su Qian and many Elders joined hands to form the seal, fully suppressing it.
Xiao Li, still unable to use sealing techniques, could only watch from the side—even if he knew how, he wouldn't easily make a move.
Because he knew that this riot was not that simple.
In fact, if Xiao Li wanted to, he alone could completely suppress the fallen heart flame, and even forcefully subdue it would not be a problem.
But he lacked an excuse, so he could only wait on the sidelines.
The fallen heart flame struck the seal again and again, and everyone else was greatly shaken by the violent aura of the fallen heart flame.
Su Qian and the others felt unprecedented pressure. Even with all the Elders working together, it was very difficult.
"This beast has accumulated such powerful strength?!"
The riot of the fallen heart flame was beyond Su Qian's expectations.
"Haven't Hu Gan and the others arrived yet?!"
Relying only on them, it would probably be difficult to suppress the rioting fallen heart flame.
However, before they could wait for the Outer Academy Elders to arrive, others came instead.
"Hahahaha, Elder Su Qian, your manpower doesn't seem to be enough. Do you need our help?"
A hearty laugh came from the other side.
Everyone quickly looked over, only to see a group of people flying rapidly.
Leading them was none other than the Medicine Emperor of the Black-Corner Region, Han Feng!
