Chapter 687: Most Fortunate to be Together

Translator: Timothy_ Editor: GlobeGlotter

Luo Yue Lake. The most peaceful and beautiful lake in Luo Yue, it was connected to a mountain. A bright green patch of grass surrounded the lake, and behind it stood a beautiful mansion. This was Ye Mo's home. He had built a simple spirit-gathering formation there, making the spiritual energy much denser than in other places.

Ye Mo was rarely home; this was where Luo Ying and Ning Qingxue lived. Tang Beiwei and Ye Ling frequently visited.

A large garden lay before the mansion—Ye Mo's herb garden, though it didn't contain many spirit herbs.

With the Luo Yue war over, most tasks involved compensation, immigration, and rebuilding. Luo Ying and Ning Qingxue had considerable free time, usually spending their days gardening. But today, they weren't gardening; Ye Mo was returning.

They waited for him atop the grassy hill, worried about his well-being. After the Ice Helm Island explosion, knowing he was safe only intensified their desire to see him.

Before landing, Ye Mo saw Luo Ying and Ning Qingxue waiting expectantly, and a surge of emotion overwhelmed him. No matter what happened, they always waited for his return.

As he approached, they ran to hug him. The happiness and bliss were almost overwhelming. A large bird also flew toward them.

Silence filled the moment—sometimes more eloquent than words. Tang Beiwei and Ye Ling watched from a distance. Tang Beiwei pulled a reluctant Ye Ling away to give Ye Mo some space.

“Beiwei, I haven’t seen Brother for a long time,” Ye Ling protested.

Tang Beiwei whispered something to Ye Ling, causing her face to redden. She pinched Tang Beiwei. “I didn’t think you were this dirty! I’m telling Brother!”

Luo Ying, Ning Qingxue, and Ye Mo watched the girls playfully fight, but remained silent.

After a long while, Ye Mo said, “Let’s go back.”

Before they could reply, he scooped up the two women and flew toward the mansion.

Although she knew Ye Mo and Luo Ying's intentions, Ning Qingxue lingered.

Watching Ye Mo scratch his face, Luo Ying chuckled to herself. Knowing his embarrassment, she whispered something to Ning Qingxue.

Eventually, Ning Qingxue reluctantly left, returning to her room.

“What did you say to Qingxue?” Ye Mo asked curiously.

Luo Ying smiled, remaining silent. Ye Mo, unable to resist his longing for Luo Ying, carried her to the bed.

As his wife, Luo Ying knew what was coming. It wasn't her first time; she could tell from Ye Mo's eyes.

Ye Mo removed Luo Ying's clothes, tossing them to the floor. A soft moan escaped her lips as he held her close. Her eyes were dreamy as she clung to his waist—simultaneously wanting him to continue and wanting him to stop.

Their breathing grew heavier. Despite her dreamy gaze, Luo Ying reached to wipe Ye Mo's sweat-free brow. Before she could, his lips covered hers.

Time passed, the rustling sounds gradually subsiding. Though not overly exerted, Ye Mo held Luo Ying tightly, reluctant to move. Luo Ying felt the same. She wished to remain in his arms forever, experiencing the happiness of being with her beloved.

Ning Qingxue carefully opened the door and entered. Seeing Luo Ying and Ye Mo together, her face flushed. She felt a pang of resentment toward Ye Mo. He had told her she needed to reach the Foundation Establishment state first. Why hadn't he said that to Luo Ying?

However, she knew Ye Mo had seen her. Before he could speak, she removed her shoes and snuggled under the covers.

Ye Mo knew Ning Qingxue had entered, but as he was about to get up, he realized he was naked. He hadn't expected her to join them—a wild thought crossed his mind.

Ning Qingxue's body was soft and warm. As she pressed against him, he felt the familiar burning sensation.

When she wrapped her arms around him, he felt such comfort he almost groaned. He reciprocated the embrace, looking apologetically at Luo Ying.

Luo Ying smiled. Before she could speak, Ning Qingxue said, “Brother Mo, you lied to me. You and Sister Luo Ying were doing that. Why don’t you do it with me? I’m also—”

Ye Mo quickly silenced her until she was panting, then said, “We—”

Ning Qingxue smiled and kissed him. After a moment, she said, “I know, Sister Luo Ying already told me. At that time, she thought you were going to die. I don’t need that Foundation Establishment state. I just want to be with you and Sister Luo Ying forever.”

Ye Mo felt the depth of their love. He held them both tightly, making sure it wasn't a dream.

Ning Qingxue’s voice was soft, “I’m already very satisfied that Sister Luo Ying left a place for me. I heard about your wedding; I envy it—it’s a shame I wasn’t there. Sister Luo Ying is very brave. Before, I wouldn’t have had her courage, but now I do. Brother Mo, I also want to be your real wife, like Sister Luo Ying.”

Luo Ying nodded in agreement.

Ye Mo stroked Ning Qingxue's hair, saying softly, “Don’t worry, we will reach the Foundation Establishment state. I’ll break through to stage 6, and then we will have our wedding. Afterward, I may need to leave for a long time. When I return, perhaps we will all have reached the Foundation Establishment state. Believe me, we will be together forever. A few decades isn’t enough time for me to love you both.”

Ning Qingxue and Luo Ying's eyes sparkled; their desire rekindled. It was easy to love, but hard to be loved as deeply in return.

Ye Mo whispered in Ning Qingxue’s ear, “When I reach stage 6 and we have our wedding, I will take you. You and Luo Ying and—
