Chapter 546: Fire Fairy's First Kiss
"Lin Langtian, I, Tang Xinlian, will have only one man in this lifetime, and that's you!"
Tang Xinlian's radiant eyes fixed resolutely on Lin Langtian, her white teeth gently biting her red lips as she voiced a declaration that would make any man under the heavens envious.
Hearing her confession, Lin Langtian was momentarily stunned. Turning to face Tang Xinlian, surprise flickered through his eyes.
Though Tang Xinlian had always been known for her straightforward and fiery personality, he never expected her to declare her feelings so openly in broad daylight.
Initially caught off guard, Lin Langtian hesitated briefly before responding softly, "Xinlian, thank you for your affection, but no matter what, I won't part ways with Qingzhu."
Seeing that Lin Langtian still hadn't fully understood her intentions, Tang Xinlian bit her silver teeth in annoyance, resentment filling her lovely eyes as she stomped her feet.
This blockhead! She had already made her feelings crystal clear, yet he still misunderstood.
But who was she to blame? After all, she genuinely loved this man. Tang Xinlian sighed inwardly.
Deep down, every woman wished to find a partner who would love only them for the rest of their lives. Yet, Tang Xinlian also understood how unrealistic this was for most men, especially since she had met Lin Langtian far too late.
Besides, even if Lin Langtian truly abandoned the woman he loved earlier just to pledge loyalty to her, she herself would look down on him for such callousness.
Thinking it through repeatedly, Tang Xinlian found herself unable to let go. After experiencing numerous battles and challenges together, Lin Langtian had long since occupied an irreplaceable place in her heart.
Compared to Lin Langtian, no other man in the world could capture her interest.
If she missed this chance, Tang Xinlian knew she would regret it for a lifetime. Rather than live with lifelong regret, she decided to boldly follow her heart.
"Who said I'm asking you to abandon anyone? Just because you, Lin Langtian, have another woman, doesn't mean I, Tang Xinlian, can't also choose to love you!" After making up her mind, Tang Xinlian glared at the wooden-faced Lin Langtian, stubbornly declaring her intentions.
Lin Langtian froze, needing a moment before realization dawned, his face suddenly breaking into a joyful smile.
It seemed Tang Xinlian was finally accepting the fact that he already had another woman, willing to share him with Ling Qingzhu?
As this thought crossed his mind, Lin Langtian couldn't help but smile happily. If that was the case, wouldn't he be enjoying the blessings of two extraordinary beauties?
Both Ling Qingzhu and Tang Xinlian were unparalleled beauties renowned across the Tianxuan continent. With these two women by his side, Lin Langtian's good fortune was comparable even to Xiao Yan's legendary harem!
Ling Qingzhu, proud and noble, was the goddess of the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace, famous for her unmatched talent and beauty.
Tang Xinlian, fiery and commanding, possessed both beauty and the qualities of an exceptional leader, rivaling Queen Medusa from the Dou Qi continent.
Having traversed the Tianxuan continent for over a decade, Lin Langtian found himself quietly fulfilling countless men's ultimate dreams.
"Don't get too carried away. If I ever find out you're neglecting me or being unfaithful, I, Tang Xinlian, won't hesitate to lead the entire Flame Divine Hall to punish you for being a scoundrel!"
Seeing Lin Langtian's barely concealed happiness, Tang Xinlian naturally knew exactly what was going through his head. With a soft yet dangerous smile, she folded her slender arms across her chest, her lovely eyes conveying both teasing amusement and a clear warning.
Lin Langtian couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile. Now he understood the headaches Xiao Yan had faced in his early days with Medusa.
A strong-willed wife, indeed.
Fortunately, Lin Langtian's strength was now equal to or greater than Tang Xinlian's. Despite her fiery temper, he was confident he could manage his "harem."
But women still required gentle coaxing. Lin Langtian wasn't dense enough to neglect this. With a gentle smile, he approached Tang Xinlian and held her delicate jade-like hand. Watching her eyes widen in surprise and slight embarrassment, he solemnly promised:
"Don't worry, Xinlian. I, Lin Langtian, swear to you here and now: as long as you don't abandon me, I'll never let you down either. If I break this vow, may heaven strike—"
Before he could finish, a smooth, cool finger gently pressed against his lips, silencing him. Tang Xinlian smiled shyly, her beautiful eyes shimmering softly. "No need to swear. I believe you."
Lin Langtian's heart warmed. With a woman like this by his side, what more could a man ask for?
Looking down at the radiant, blushing beauty before him, Lin Langtian felt a fiery heat slowly rising within him. His eyes gradually grew hotter as his fingers softly caressed Tang Xinlian's smooth hand.
Feeling Lin Langtian's increasingly daring touch, Tang Xinlian's cheeks flushed red-hot, her normally bold eyes becoming clouded with emotion.
Lin Langtian's throat tightened slightly, a dryness settling into his mouth as desire surged suddenly through him.
Noticing Lin Langtian's changing gaze, Tang Xinlian's embarrassment deepened, and a tiny, involuntary moan escaped her lips as his hands gently embraced her waist.
This small sound was like an irresistible invitation, causing Lin Langtian's heartbeat to quicken dramatically. Unable to resist any longer, he pulled Tang Xinlian into his embrace and leaned down slowly towards her enticing red lips…
…
After a long moment, their lips finally parted.
Because their relationship had just been established, Lin Langtian restrained himself, not wishing to go too far. But even this much intimacy had left Tang Xinlian soft and trembling in his arms, her face flushed brightly, appearing fragile and gentle.
For Tang Xinlian, who had never been intimate with any man, this first passionate kiss opened a completely new experience for her, more exhilarating than even breaking through to the advanced Death Profound Realm.
It took some time for Tang Xinlian to recover her composure. Finally pulling away from Lin Langtian's embrace, she glared at him with an embarrassed fury.
Lin Langtian smiled sheepishly, spreading his hands helplessly. "Well... it wasn't exactly my fault..."
Attempting a weak excuse, Lin Langtian scratched his nose awkwardly, unable to justify himself further.
Thankfully, Tang Xinlian didn't press him too hard. Given their current relationship, sharing a kiss wasn't inappropriate—though as her first kiss, Tang Xinlian still blushed shyly and whispered:
"Hmph, I'll let you off this time, but no further! If you try anything else, I'll cut off that thing of yours."
She glanced meaningfully downward, her cheeks blushing fiercely. She had clearly felt Lin Langtian's intentions earlier, though she was secretly grateful he'd respected her boundaries.
Lin Langtian chuckled awkwardly, saying nothing more. Taking Tang Xinlian's delicate hand again, they sat quietly together on the mountaintop, leaning closely into each other beneath the golden sunset glow.
Though neither spoke or moved, the atmosphere between them grew increasingly harmonious and tender, resembling an immortal couple lost in blissful companionship.
After a long silence, Tang Xinlian finally broke the tranquility. "I sensed fluctuations in your energy earlier. Did you break through to the Advanced Stage of Death Profound Realm?"
Lin Langtian blinked, nodding with a smile. "Yes, just recently."
Tang Xinlian frowned slightly in concern. "Although a breakthrough after battle is beneficial, your aura seems somewhat unstable. I heard you're heading to the Demon Region next. It's not a safe place for humans. Going there in your current state might disadvantage you."
Lin Langtian nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, the sudden breakthrough brought on by absorbing demonic energies had left his foundation somewhat unstable. Any mistakes could cause regression.
"You seem to have an idea," Lin Langtian said teasingly, smiling at Tang Xinlian.
Tang Xinlian folded her arms with a playful smile. "Curious?"
Seeing her teasing manner, Lin Langtian merely shook his head with a smile, pretending disinterest. "Maybe I'll just ask Moro instead."
As he turned to walk away, Tang Xinlian hurried after him, slightly annoyed but unable to hide her amusement. "Ever heard of the Death Flame Spiritual Pool?"
Lin Langtian stopped, smiling inwardly. He'd expected this.
This spiritual pool, famous within the Flame Divine Hall, contained extremely pure death energy, immensely beneficial to cultivators at the Death Profound Realm.
Feigning ignorance, Lin Langtian said, "But I heard that Flame Divine Hall only opens the Death Flame Pool once a year for core members who've made significant contributions."
Tang Xinlian smiled beautifully. "Then why don't you join Flame Divine Hall? With me here, you'll always be treated well."
Lin Langtian chuckled lightly, shaking his head. "You know I have my own foundation back in Eastern Xuan Region."
Then, with a teasing glint, he added, "Perhaps you'd rather join me at Sky Palace instead, becoming my partner in building our future?"
Tang Xinlian blushed lightly, then laughed softly, shaking her head gently. "Let's talk about this later. For now, let's go—the elders are waiting for us."
As they walked together towards the deepest chambers of the Flame Divine Hall, Lin Langtian quietly smiled, knowing that perhaps one day, he'd convince this talented beauty to stand proudly by his side, united under his Sky Palace.
Upon entering the massive hall, they stood before the bizarrely calm black waters of the Death Flame Spiritual Pool, ready to begin the next phase of their journey.
