Chapter 595: God-Tier Genius
Before the two could even take out their phones to take pictures, the barrier around the pavilion lit up again, blocking the view from the outside.
Mu Qingtong pressed a button, reactivating the barrier that had been carelessly dispersed. Meanwhile, Mr. Xia, beneath her, had already moved from her jawline to kiss her slender neck and collarbone.
“Your Majesty, raise your head,” the man said, deliberately teasing with a faint smile. His hot breath brushed against her delicate neck, feeling soft and moist, like an excited puppy, causing her to get goosebumps from the tickle.
She tilted her graceful swan neck slightly, a few strands of silver hair lazily clinging to her red lips. A faint blush touched her exquisite face, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Her calm eyes stared at the spectacular fireworks display on the opposite side of the lake.
And beneath the fireworks, more and more people, having heard the news, gathered by the lake and looked towards the pavilion.
The couple from before were excitedly pointing towards her, explaining to others. This caused the lakeside to become increasingly lively, and many people began to pull out their phones to take pictures in their direction, even if they could only capture the pavilion, not the people.
The flashes were dazzling. At the same time, Mr. Xia forcefully left a love bite on the side of her neck. Mu Qingtong turned her face away, frowning unhappily, “Mr. Xia, you really are like a little dog right now~”
“…” Xia Feng felt the woman in his arms was as soft as boneless, holding her brought him a sense of complete security. The faint, intoxicating fragrance from her body was even more alluring, causing Xia Feng to feel somewhat lost.
However, hearing Miss Mu’s subtly mocking and disdainful tone, he snapped back to reality from his daze. He slapped the curve of her skirt below her waist. Even through the silk dress, he could feel the solid flesh of the World-Ending Witch’s taut buttocks.
“Your Majesty, you are my captive now, so you must act like one!” Xia Feng’s large hands moved wantonly, and a wicked smile curved his lips at her neck. “Understand?”
“…” Mu Qingtong hadn’t expected this fellow cultivator to get so into character, even taking it upon himself to change their roles! How childish.
However, she didn’t mind playing along with this childish fellow cultivator for a while.
“So, you call yourself a subject, have you submitted to me?” she asked in a low voice, tilting her neck as she endured the subject’s desecration.
Xia Feng’s hand slid to her thigh, pulling her body closer to sit on his lap.
Then, he patted her flushed yet proud, cool and aloof little face, chuckling, “Your Majesty, I am a rebel plotting to usurp your throne~ How can there be talk of submission?”
“Rebel, hmm, then you indeed fit this role perfectly.” Mu Qingtong nodded thoughtfully. Mr. Xia was like a rebel who would eventually be suppressed and subdued by her. For now, he was jumping around happily, but it wouldn’t be long before he was kneeling at her feet, crying and begging for mercy.
*Pia~*
A crisp sound, pleasing to the ear. Mu Qingtong couldn’t help but frown. It seemed this rebel really liked to spank her.
“If you mess around with your pig hands again, I won’t let you kiss me anymore,” she said coldly, frowning and pushing away Xia Feng’s lecherous hand.
“Tsk~ As if I care about kissing you.”
Xia Feng’s lips curled into an unfathomable smile. He glanced at the black-dressed woman on him and said disdainfully, “Fakes are just fakes. You’re just a false Empress. I’d rather find a real Empress to play with. What do you say, Miss Mu?”
“?”
These few words inexplicably ignited Mu Qingtong’s anger. She couldn’t help but sigh, “It seems I’ll have to cut out your vital parts. Perhaps that will cure your perverted symptoms, what do you say, Mr. Xia?”
“…”
Feeling the black-dressed woman’s gaze gradually lowering, and the undisguised killing intent hidden in her golden eyes, Xia Feng felt a chill in his legs. His arousal immediately subsided.
He quickly changed the subject, pointing into the distance, “Miss Mu, look over there, it’s quite lively. It seems a big figure has arrived.”
The diversion was rather abrupt, but Mu Qingtong decided to temporarily let go of this disloyal scoundrel who intended to serve a second master. She followed his gaze.
The reason the pavilion on the Magpie Lantern Bridge was so expensive, besides the legend it supposedly held, was its open view, allowing one to see almost the entire lantern festival. To the east, on a majestic, lake-viewing high pavilion, a man in a white robe stood with his hands behind his back. A light-gold ceremonial cloak with a carved black moon hung on his back. His features were handsome and appeared very young, and he wore a monocle over his right eye.
The crowd, which had been excitedly discussing around the lake whether the pavilion in the center of the lake belonged to Mu Shen, now shifted their attention. They excitedly took photos of the robed man on the lake-viewing high pavilion with their phones.
Clearly, this person was a notable figure.
“This person should be Dipus, the son of the Black Moon Pope,” Mu Qingtong mused, looking at Xia Feng.
The Pope’s son? Xia Feng was taken aback. He didn’t know about this matter. “The Black Moon Pope actually has a son?”
“The Pope can also marry and have children,” Mu Qingtong nodded. “This person is also the Black Moon Pope’s only son. It is said he is an even more prodigious talent than Ye Li Dongjun, praised as a God-tier genius.”
God-tier genius refers to an unprecedented individual with the potential to become a god, and every God-tier genius is destined to reach the Sage realm.
The Justice Holy Son and Ye Li Kong, whom Xia Feng had encountered before, were merely Super geniuses.
Under normal circumstances, across the entire empire’s fifty-one large areas over a thousand-year span, major powers would produce one to two Super geniuses.
However, since the empire’s founding, there had only been a total of fourteen individuals praised as God-tier geniuses.
!
In nearly a thousand years, the entire empire would produce only one to two such individuals, becoming the protagonists of their era, leaving other so-called geniuses far behind.
“However, the Pope’s son suddenly appeared four months ago. Before that, the world did not know that the Black Moon Pope had a son.”
“This was around the time you died, Mr. Xia. The Element Saintess and the Black Moon Pope’s son suddenly emerged. The former, for reasons unknown, received increasing importance from the Elements, while the latter was rumored to be a God-tier genius and was widely popular online due to his outstanding appearance.”
Unlike the low-key nature of the Elements and the Just, the Black Moon Holy See was very high-profile and well-known online.
Previously, they had attracted male believers by leveraging the pure and holy images of Jiang Qiue and Cha Nai Xue. Now, it seemed they were attracting female believers with the handsome genius persona of the Pope’s son.
This was, after all, a common method used by the Black Moon Holy See to attract believers.
However, it was strange. If the Pope had a son, why had he been as invisible as if he had no information disclosed before?
Xia Feng pondered this mentally. Unfortunately, Cha Nai Xue and Jiang Qiue had already left Li Tian City that morning, heading for Black Moon City, where the Black Moon General Court was located.
Otherwise, he could have asked them for specific information about the Pope’s son.
The Black Moon Holy See was experiencing internal problems, so that morning, Cha Nai Xue and the other woman suggested they return to Black Moon City covertly to investigate the situation. They would meet up with Xia Feng and the others after Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong had completed their business in Li Tian City.
Until they were certain of the Holy See’s true situation, they would not reveal their identities.
After discussing with Mu Qingtong, Xia Feng agreed to the two Saintesses’ proposal.
These two Saintesses were steady individuals with deep minds, not foolish and clueless sweethearts. Furthermore, they each possessed remarkable abilities. Splitting into two groups and letting them return to Black Moon City to investigate the situation would be more efficient.
