A sixteen year long bet has came to an end and the final winner was an unexpected unruly boy that came out of nowhere. People that bet money on this game were crying from losing so much as they didn’t expect to have such a result. This incident has become the latest headlines in the Immortal world and not to mention how the contestants added to the gossip about the Human world when they return.

When Hua Qiangu woke up again, she had returned to Unfeeling Hall of Changliu. Even though her eyes can’t see, she is able to hear the voice.

“Gu Tuo Shifu, are you awake?” You Ruo held her hand and Tangbao who has transformed back to insect quickly crawled out of her ear.

“What about Shuofeng?” She asked anxiously.

“Qiangu, I’m here.” Shuofeng said with smiled as he flicked her forehead. He then turned around and looked at Bai Zihua, Dongfang Yuqing, Sha Qianmu, and others who are standing on the side.

“I saw everyone has such a good time playing, so I joined in the middle of the game but I didn’t have any evil intention. I’m hoping Honorable Master as a great man not harbor grievance for this small man’s past wrongs. I believe you won’t take it to heart…..”

Bai Zihua faintly looked at him and didn’t speak. The revenge is not about gentleman or not, it’s just a matter of time. Shuofeng, suddenly felt a chill on his back.

Sheng Xiaomo gave him a swift kick: “You damn boy, a good bet was totally ruined by you. Wasting my hard work to raise a child for so many years.”

Hua Qiangu held Shuofeng’s hand and was too excited to speak. He finally returned. He came back many years faster than she expected. At last, she has no regrets, beside Zhu Ran…..

“Damn scholar, you’ve known for a long time that Liuhuo is Shuofeng, haven’t you?” Sha Qianmu asked with glaring eyes, Dongfang Yuqing only shrugged and smiled.

Everyone has restored to their original appearances. The atmosphere is very harmony and happy. Mo Yan looked at Shuofeng and thought in his mind, it’s good that the bet ended in this way. If the final winner was really Dongfang Yuqing or other people, Zihua wouldn’t say it, but he would definitely mind.

Sha Qianmu impatiently urging: “The betting is over. You are quickly treat Little tot’s eyes.”

Dongfang Yuqing nodded: “The medicine has been prepared. Buried in volcano for 15 years, it’s time to open. It just needs to be supplemented with acupuncture, but I am not convenience…..”

Even though he said only, everyone has already understood his meaning. Acupuncture requires undressing.

“I’ll do it.” Bai Zihua spoke.

Dongfang Yuqing nodded: “Because it requires needles to pierce into the bone, it may be a bit painful. Gu Tuo, you will have to bear with it. Let’s wait a few days. I’ll inform the Honorable Master the location of acupuncture one by one.

“No!” Hua Qiangu spoke in protest: “Let’s wait another two months!”

Everyone wondered: “Why wait for two months?”

Hua Qiangu kneaded her face and buried her head in the quilt: “I want to lose weight first!”

Everyone froze and laughed. Hua Qiangu now still has a chubby figure from the Human Realm. Naturally, she doesn’t want to strip off her clothes in front of Bai Zihua with her body looking like this.

“It’s all your fault!” Hua Qiangu grabbed the pillow and smashed it in the direction of Dongfang Yuqing.

Dongfang Yuqing steadily held the pillow in his arms and smile, but the smile was a little bitter: “Of course, I have to make you fat so that I I can tell who is true to you and who is not.”

“Humph!” Hua Qiangu grinned at him. In fact, she finally put down a big stone in her heart. This time bet has gone through safely, to her is a perfect outcome. She did not betray her lover but also did not Shifu win. Who made him agree to bet on her? She hasn’t finished settle account with him yet!

___________

Two months later, with great difficulty Hua Qiangu successfully lost weight. Although there are many magic elixir in the fairyland, the forced change of external force is not as good as healthy exercise.

Today is the day of getting acupuncture treatment. Hua Qiangu felt a little nervous. After taking a bath, she thought for a long time what should she wear today. Then she realized she’s going to take them off anyway, so she just wrapped in white silk at the top and bottom of important places and covered herself with a translucent muslin outerwear. A sixteen years old her is almost turn into an adult and became a lot taller. Because it’s not completely slim down yet, still having a full and round figure.

She walked into the Medical’s room of the Unfeeling Hall, her heart pounding non stop.

“Xiao Go, close the door.”

The voice of Bai Zihua came from inside, Hua Qiangu couldn’t help swallowing.

The room was full of light curtains and a special incense of medicinal herb was burning in the incense burner, the fragrance is rich and subtle.

She walked in step by step and heard Bai Zihua suddenly spoke: “Watch out your steps.” On the contrary, she deliberately tripped and fell forward.

As expected, her body leaned slightly and at the next moment fell into the familiar warm embrace.

“Xiao Gu.” The voice was slightly discontented, as if to scold her naughtiness.

Hua Qiangu wrapped her arms around Bau Zihua’s neck, whispered closer to his ear: “Shifu, carry me over.”

Bai Zihua was stunned for a moment and then gently lifted her up, carried her in princess style and put her down on the couch.

Hua Qiangu’s long hair trailed over her shoulders, exposing her exquisite body and faintly discernible. Bai Zihua had never seen her like this before, his face and ears could not but turned red for a moment. Afraid that it would affect the needle application, he simply pulled a white cloth and covered his eyes.

Hua Qiangu was depressed. They have been married for this long and he’s still shy. She was lying on the couch and refused to move. Bai Zihua had no choice but to fumble to untie her white silk and took off her outerwear.

Hua Qiangu took a glance at the silver needle next to her. There are more than one hundred of them, vary in lengths. She couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.

“Xiao Gu, don’t be afraid.” Bai Zihua said in a low voice to comfort her. Touching her back neck with his left hand and pushed needle three stitches down her spine.

Hua Qiangu’s body convulsed with pain. The needle did not stuck on the acupoints in the meat, but on the bone. Her whole scalp was numb. Clenching her teeth and trying not to make any sound, Shifu’s cold hands were like a stream of clear cold water washing away her pain.

Feeling the trembling of her body, Bai Zihua frowned distressful.

“Can you stand it?”

Hua Qiangu smiled: “No problem. Continue to inject it. I have survived from the Soul-eliminating nails, I’m not afraid of this.”

The hands behind her froze. Hua Qiangu noticed of her own words and quickly shifted the topic to urge Bai Zihua to inject the needles.

Bai Zihua thought of the day when Hua Qiangu was tied on the Immortal Jade column and blood flowing like water, his hands shake slightly. He knew the faster his speed, the less pain she suffers. Thus, he forced himself to calm down and quickly injected a few more needles into her.

Although he was blindfolded, could not see Hua Qiangu’s painful appearance, or heard her cry of pain, but her sweaty body and rapid heavy breathing has made Bai Zihua lost his usual calmness and steadiness.

After pricking needles into the bones and pull them out, they took a little rest. Both of them were greatly relieved. Bai Zihua gently wiped the sweat from Hua Qiangu’s face and body. His expression gradually returned to calmness as he began to prick the needles again.

Hua Qiangu felt more and more difficult to endure and could not feel the pain just now. Now every time that cold finger touches her body, it felt like an electric shock, causing her body to tremble all over. She felt like wanted to live and die at the same time! He kept telling her not to move around! Why doesn’t he try not to move and let her touches instead?

Bai Zihua couldn’t understand why Hua Qiangu just now would rather gritted her teeth than making any sounds and now she’s making a low moan. The soft voice was like something fluffy tickling his heart, making him blushed.

After injected several points on her back, he began to inject her legs. It’s even harder for Hua Qiangu, especially on her inner thighs. If she didn’t know Bai Zihua’s character, she would think he was deliberately trying to seduce her.

I swear to get my revenge! Hua Qaingu made a serious oat in her heart.

Finally, the acupuncture on her back was completely finished, Bai Zihua exhaled softly. After a cup of tea, Hua Qiangu was drowsy as Bai Zihua pulled her needles. Hua Qiangu weakly turned over, preparing to get acupoints on the front. Opening her eyes, she was shocked to find that she is able to see. Her meridians are almost open up. She was extremely happy but did not say anything. She squinted her eyes looking at Bai Zihua continued to give her acupuncture.

Bai Zihua was afraid that if himself seeing too much and lost concentration. Thus, he blindfolded himself and treated his lover’s body in front of him as an ordinary patient. But he didn’t expect that his brain was completely not function and became more chaotic.

His left hand felt her acupuncture point and right hand placed the needle. After done with her collarbone, he accidentally touched Hua Qiangu’s chest, he immediately retracted, but did not expect his hand was restrained by Hua Qiangu, did not let go and pressed it to cover her chest. Unlike the past, the soft touch immediately caught Bai Zihua off guard.

“Shifu, it hurts….” Hua Qiangu said with a mischievous smile on her face. Opened her big eyes as she looked at Bai Zihua’s forehead sweating more and more.

“Xiao Gu, stop playing around……” Bai Zihua was a little flustered. He wanted to pull his hand back but it was pressed even harder by Hua Qiangu’s hands. It looks more like taking the chance to rub a few on her chest, and his face suddenly turned redder.

“Shifu, do you feel my heart beating?” Hua Qiangu almost could not hold her laughter.

Hearing her say that, Bai Zihua could feel the tenderness under his palm and the fast beating heart.

“Shifu, your face is blushing.”

“Stop playing. What if I accidentally make a mistake.” Bai Zihua vigorously pulled back his hand and took a step back. His voice was very unnatural. Adjusting his mind and continue to give her acupuncture.

Hua Qiangu’s arms was tied up and couldn’t move any more. Happily opened her eyes watching Bai Zihua. Seeing Bai Zihua in such embarrassment expression, she felt this bet is really worth it.

After half an hour, the treatment is finished.

Bai Zihua pulled out the needles and asked: “Xiao Gu, can you see? How do you feel?”

“I feel it’s hot all over my body, like a fire is burning. Shifu, helps me cold it down.”

Hua Qiangu sat up and rushed into his arms. Bai Zihua hugged her smooth naked body, he couldn’t help but feel embarrassed again.

“Put on your clothes first.”

“No. it cool down faster this way.”

Hua Qiangu approached his face and kissed the tip of his nose lightly.

“Shifu, I can see again….”

Bai Zihua raised the corner of his mouth, his smile flickered.

“You said it yourself that when I am able to see again, then…..”

When the little mouth pressed on, Bai Zihua felt a little helpless. He wanted to untie the white cloth strip on his eyes but was stopped by Hua Qiangu. She wanted Shifu to experience the feeling of being invisible as well. Humph, Before, when he kissed her in the Milky Way, wasn’t he very domineering? What’s up with shyness this time?

Hua Qiangu kissed his eyes across the white cloth.

Bai Zihua could feel her unruly little hands were touching his chest and back. The hot breath blowing in his ear and then kissed his earlobes, licked, bit it, and sucked it. His brain has exploded, reaching out his hands and tightly hugged Hua Qiangu in his embrace. Everything in front of him turned into pink.

Before, he did not dare to be close to her because he was afraid of affecting the cultivation and could not help her to heal. No that no need to consider it, let nature take its course.

Bai Zihua kissed her deeply, his elegant tongue invaded aggressively and lingering. Hua Qiangu suddenly became soft as she was slowly pressed under him…. At that moment, Bai Zihua’s lips were bitten heavily and bleeding a little bit. Hua Qiangu got out from underneath him and smiling broadly.

“Shifu always said, Xiao Gu is too small, Xiao Gu is too small!! Anyway, I can see now. I don’t need you to take care of me anymore, we can continue to sleep in separate rooms. Our unfinished business, let’s talk about it two years later when I grow up!”

Who made him agree to bet on her and kissed her with his tricks making her foolishly loves him. Her anger hasn’t reduced yet. She’s also know how to seduce a man. Now, do you know how fierce I am! How’s the taste of enduring self suffering?!! Whao, hahaha!

Bai Zihua sighed helplessly, tore off the white cloth and glanced at her.

“Two years?”

Who is that little pervert that always crawled on him, took advantage of him and eat his tofu everyday?

Seeing the scornful looked in Bai Zihua’s eyes, Hua Qiangu felt like being hit a blow. Burning with rage, she clenched her fists and said: “Hum, don’t look down on me. Don’t believe me, I’ll bet with Shifu. I definitely can wait until two years later to eat you up! Wait and See!”

Hua Qiangu made a grimace face at him, put on her coat and jumped out. Bai Zihua could only sighed with laughter.

Bet for another two years? Looks like this little devil’s addicted to gambling?

It’s not that he’s too confident in his charm, it’s just that kid’s willpower is really poor. Besides, it doesn’t mean that himself can’t eat her up?

This bet, she’ll lose for sure——
