Urban Martial Saint

After finishing the two wild rabbits, Huangfu Ziyu’s face showed a bit more vitality. Gazing at the tranquil night sky, a faint smile naturally appeared on her face.

In such a quiet, secluded place, being able to lean on someone you love was a rare and satisfying joy. This was something she had never dared to dream about in the past. Yet this time, her wish had finally come true. At this moment, her heart was unprecedentedly calm—there was no family mission, no responsibility to revive the Huangfu Household. Perhaps, for once, she was truly living for herself, not for the Huangfu Family’s sake!

Ye Qing tidied up the tent and let Huangfu Ziyu enter first. Their last physical interaction had been almost twelve hours ago, which meant that the Twin Gu larvae inside him were close to hatching. He needed another round of physical contact with Huangfu Ziyu to suppress the Twin Gu larvae.

Ever since the last time he shared a room with Huangfu Ziyu, Ye Qing no longer felt as much awkwardness. He had already made his decision in his heart—Huangfu Ziyu was the woman of his life. Being with Huangfu Ziyu filled him with joy. As for Shen Qingyi, perhaps she was merely a beautiful memory in his life, but not someone meant to stay.

Ye Qing entered the tent and casually zipped it shut. Inside the tent, the dim lighting made the atmosphere particularly intimate.

Under the faint light, Huangfu Ziyu’s impossibly beautiful face was as fair as snow, resembling the purest saintly maiden, untouched and untainted. Yet her features were also strikingly alluring, exuding a subtle temptation. She was like an enchanting enigma, combining sanctity and charm seamlessly, drawing people to her and yet grounding them in humility—a beauty that truly evoked awe from the depths of the heart.

Looking at Huangfu Ziyu’s appearance, Ye Qing fell momentarily dazed. To be honest, although he had known Huangfu Ziyu for quite some time, he had rarely studied her this earnestly. Now, observing her closely, Ye Qing discovered that her beauty seemed to have been etched into his soul, impossible to forget.

”Zi Yu…” Ye Qing reached out unconsciously, gently clasping Huangfu Ziyu’s delicate hand.

Although Huangfu Ziyu usually appeared bold and carefree, deep down, she was a fundamentally conservative woman. When her beloved man grasped her hand at this moment, her charming face instantly flushed red. Yet, without any hesitation, she gently leaned into Ye Qing’s embrace.

Holding the jade-like beauty in his arms, Ye Qing whispered softly, ”If we make it out of the Miao Borderlands alive this time, I’ll marry you!”

Huangfu Ziyu raised her head to look at Ye Qing, her eyes brimming with joy. She gripped Ye Qing’s hand tightly, her voice slightly choked, ”Are you… Are you proposing to me?”

Gazing firmly at Huangfu Ziyu, Ye Qing nodded heavily, without the slightest hesitation. In his heart, he had already chosen this woman, and every word he spoke was genuine and unwavering.

Looking at Ye Qing’s resolute gaze, Huangfu Ziyu suddenly let out a soft sob and threw herself into his arms, clutching his shoulders as she wept uncontrollably. She had never thought about marriage before. Deep inside, she had long decided she wouldn’t marry anyone in her lifetime. But hearing Ye Qing’s words now stirred a sudden, overwhelming desire to marry him—to cast aside all external matters and simply be with him, flying freely side by side. Even if it meant retreating to the countryside to farm a few acres, it would be the happiest thing in the world!

Ye Qing held Huangfu Ziyu tightly, unsure how to comfort her. After a while, he finally asked in a low voice, ”Would… Would you marry me?”

”I would!” Huangfu Ziyu raised her head to look at Ye Qing, replying firmly, ”I would!”

Hearing her response, Ye Qing felt an unparalleled joy in his heart. Holding the beauty in his arms, he felt a warmth he had never experienced before. In this lifetime, had he finally found the person he could spend all of eternity with?

Huangfu Ziyu clung to Ye Qing tightly as well. At this moment, their hearts were filled with tranquility. Free from all worries, this feeling was unexpectedly soothing.

After some time had passed, Ye Qing suddenly felt a peculiar sensation within his body, and his expression immediately darkened.

”What’s the matter?” Sensing Ye Qing’s discomfort, Huangfu Ziyu quickly lifted her head, looking at him nervously. ”Is it… Is it that the Twin Gu larvae are acting up again?”

Ye Qing nodded. Pain was gradually radiating through his body, so intense it even prevented him from speaking.

Without hesitation, Huangfu Ziyu promptly removed her outer garments, leaving herself in just an undergarment, just like last time. Under the dim light, her exquisite figure appeared mesmerizingly enchanting.

This time, however, was entirely different from the last. Previously, Ye Qing had been nearly unconscious, so he had missed seeing Huangfu Ziyu undress. But now, he witnessed every moment. Alongside his gratitude, his blood surged uncontrollably. After all, as a virgin, how could he possibly remain calm in such a situation?

Huangfu Ziyu, on the other hand, was utterly composed. She embraced Ye Qing tightly, murmuring tenderly, ”It’s okay, it’s okay. Just rest like this for a while, and you’ll be fine. Don’t be afraid.”

As she spoke, she gently helped Ye Qing remove his clothing. Her movements were meticulous, like a dutiful wife caring for her husband—a serene yet love-filled display.

In no time, the two were both undressed, intertwined closely. Ye Qing could distinctly sense the turmoil within his body subsiding. Yet his heart refused to settle. After all, holding an impeccable beauty like this naked, with his hands tightly grasping her ample chest—how could anyone remain indifferent?

Truthfully, while Ye Qing felt restless, Huangfu Ziyu was no less affected. With her back to him, encircled by his embrace, she could feel his strong arms and the distinct male scent on him, making her hopelessly flustered. What stirred her heart most was the warm sensation nestled between her thighs, pressing against the most sensitive part of her maidenhood. For an inexperienced girl, this feeling was utterly overwhelming. Despite her shame, she couldn’t resist subtly shifting her hips backward, seeking more intimate contact.

Ye Qing was more aroused than her. In this moment, everything else around him faded away, as his mind focused solely on that single point. Holding the girl’s fragrant, soft body, he inexplicably felt a sensation of moist warmth, prompting uncontrollable urges to push himself closer.

The two clung closely together, with only their underwear separating them, yet they struggled to maintain control. Their racing pulses and surging emotions threatened to ignite them at any moment.

Unknowingly, their bodies gradually became entangled, though they never crossed that final boundary. Somehow, the two began to kiss passionately, forgetting the world around them as they poured their hearts into the embrace, desperate to melt into each other’s arms.

By now, the disturbance from Ye Qing’s Twin Gu larvae had long subsided. In reality, it didn’t require prolonged physical contact—just occasional moments of closeness to appease the larvae sufficed. Yet neither of them cared about these biological whims. They had lost themselves in the heat of love, as the tent seemed immersed in complete passion.

Amid their fervent embrace, a strange whistling sound suddenly echoed from afar, jolting them back to reality.

”What’s happening?” Huangfu Ziyu lifted her head, scanning the surroundings vigilantly. Years of living a life on the edge had made her more alert than anyone else.

”Must be a Gu Master releasing Gu insects nearby,” Ye Qing muttered with a faint frown, finally noticing that his Twin Gu larvae had ceased acting up.

Ye Qing dressed quickly and said in a low voice, ”Stay here. I’ll go take a look.”

”Wait,” Huangfu Ziyu grabbed him, leaned in to plant a deep kiss on him, and whispered softly, ”I’ll wait for you to come back here.”

Observing Huangfu Ziyu’s breathtaking face, a warm surge filled Ye Qing’s heart as he nodded firmly.

Exiting the tent, another whistle sounded from the distance. Ye Qing hesitated briefly, then walked to the vehicle and retrieved the Seven-Star Ancient Sword. Just as he prepared to investigate, he grew uneasy. He directed Huangfu Ziyu to dress, sit in the car, and lock all the doors and windows to ensure safety.

Although Huangfu Ziyu’s strength surpassed his own, her inability to use Inner Strength at this moment left her vulnerable. That, combined with the dangers lurking everywhere in the Miao Borderlands, demanded Ye Qing’s utmost caution.

Ordinarily, Ye Qing wouldn’t interfere in such matters. But the mysterious sound drew closer, intensifying in urgency and strangeness, compelling his guard to rise.

Now, Ye Qing faced two choices: approach and confirm the threat or drive away with Huangfu Ziyu to evade any Gu Masters and their dangers.

He chose to approach the source. Deep within the forest, there were no roads to make a clean escape. Driving through the night would only expose them further, creating a greater target for potential enemies. Thus, Ye Qing decided to confront the situation head-on, to determine whether the Gu Master was targeting them.
