Chapter 2472: Dominant Saintess Falls in Love with Me

Meanwhile, in the courtyard, Zu'an and the Saintess, deep in a passionate kiss, naturally ended up in bed.

The last time they met, they had just secretly pledged their lives to each other before being suddenly forced apart. Now, reuniting like newlyweds, their passion was naturally like dry tinder meeting a raging fire.

As their spirits and bodies became one again, it felt as if countless years had passed for them, bringing a sensation of profound joy mixed with tears.

Yet, at this moment, a significant portion of the Saintess's tears stemmed from pain. Noticing something unusual in that instant, Zu'an was startled, "How are you still...?"

Xie Daoyun's face flushed with shyness as she whispered, "My identity in this world is Yumon Beiqing, the Saintess of the Demon Race."

Zu'an paused, "What about your original body, then?"

A trace of wistfulness crossed Xie Daoyun's face. "I don't know either. After I took that jade, I don't know how much time passed; it felt like I was in a state of chaos the entire time. When I woke up, I was already like this, and I don't know if there's any chance of changing back."

Zu'an quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Yumon Beiqing is probably just your identity in this world. Once you return to your original time and space, you should be able to resume your true self."

In truth, he wasn't entirely confident about this. Currently, Xie Daoyun's body was that of the Saintess. If they were to travel to a future time and space, and the Saintess's body were to disappear without her original body returning, wouldn't that result in her soul being scattered? *Hmm*, fortunately, by then he should have recovered his identity as the Master of the Underworld. Even if only her soul remained, he could find a way to preserve it.

At this moment, Xie Daoyun suddenly said softly, "Brother Zu, let's not talk about these unhappy things right now. I'm already incredibly happy just to see you again."

Seeing her crimson, blood-red cheeks, Zu'an was reminded of their current situation.

Yet, looking at this face, which was both familiar and strange, he still felt a bit odd. "It feels like I'm being intimate with someone else."

Xie Daoyun's face was deeply flushed. "This is also me! Besides, after you found out just now, you clearly... clearly became even more excited."

By the end of her sentence, she was overcome with embarrassment; clearly, such words were incredibly daring for her to utter.

Zu'an felt a bit awkward; in such an intimate state, their physical reactions truly couldn't deceive each other.

Gazing at her captivating appearance and the ethereal aura of a fallen fairy that clung to her as the Saintess, he could no longer resist and leaned down to kiss her.

Xie Daoyun let out a soft moan and tightly embraced her lover's neck. Her long-held longing dispelled the pain in her body.

Gradually, the pain transformed into endless tenderness and affection.

After an unknown amount of time, Xie Daoyun climbed up from Zu'an's chest, a hint of panic in her expression. "Oh dear, I completely forgot there are many demon race ministers waiting outside! No, I have to go out and greet them, or things might get chaotic."

Gazing at her unique aura, where holiness and charm coexisted, Zu'an genuinely felt reluctant to get up.

But he also knew that they had indeed lingered in the room for quite some time, so he got up and dressed. "Then let's pretend we don't know each other, otherwise many things..."

He was halfway through his sentence when a finger pressed against his lips. "No, I don't want you to be wronged. I want everyone to know about our relationship."

Looking at the decisiveness and courage that bloomed on her face, qualities she hadn't shown before, it was clear this was the leadership she had developed over the years as the Saintess of the Demon Race, guiding her people against the demons.

Zu'an couldn't help but laugh wryly. Was he, by any chance, playing out a script where he was the pampered "trophy husband" doted on by a domineering female CEO?

Finding it amusing, he no longer refused. So, he went outside with her, listening as she happily introduced him as her man.

However, the scene was met with a brief and eerie silence, before quickly erupting into chaos.

Countless people's expressions utterly collapsed:

"Saintess, please reconsider!"

"Is this brat coercing you, Saintess?!"

"Just nod, and we'll help you kill this boy!"

Countless people were utterly distraught because the beautiful Saintess held unparalleled prestige in the hearts of all demon race members, almost revered as a totem.

The Saintess was beautiful, gentle, yet also strong and incredibly charismatic; there was hardly anyone in the Demon Race who didn't like her.

Many young prodigies of top caliber had confessed their feelings to her, but all were rejected without exception. She had stated that all her thoughts were focused on resisting the demons from beyond the heavens, and she had no mind for romance.

Upon learning this, everyone immediately held her in awe, and from that moment on, they saw a touch of divinity in the Saintess.

Although many princes and noble heirs among the demon race's elite had been rejected by the Saintess, because she rejected everyone equally, nobody found it problematic. Instead, they liked and revered her even more.

Since then, anyone who dared to entertain romantic thoughts about the Saintess would often be collectively attacked by everyone.

As a result, even though the Saintess was clearly more popular, more people ended up pursuing Princess Peacock instead.

So now, suddenly seeing the Saintess clinging intimately to a man and saying such things, everyone's first reaction was that these were not her true feelings, but that she was being coerced.

Zu'an saw the rapidly increasing rage points in the system backend. "The Saintess's popularity is truly immense," he thought, as hundreds of thousands of rage points appeared in that instant alone.

Seeing the crowd's furious reaction, the Saintess was also startled and quickly declared, "I am not being coerced! He truly is my lover!"

Hearing her confirm it again, everyone seemed to hear the sound of countless hearts shattering.

Many people also noticed the flush on the Saintess's face, and combined with the intimate way the two of them had just emerged, thoughts of what had happened inside the room began to surface in their minds.

Their sacred and immaculate Saintess had just been wildly assaulted and ravished by a man.

*Oh god*, images are forming—stop thinking about it!

Everyone's expressions were somewhat shattered.

This included Princess Peacock.

She mused that she had just been telling everyone the story of how Big Brother had charged in and out seven times amidst the demon army, spilling rivers of blood. And now, it turned out he was "charging in and out seven times" on the Saintess in the courtyard? Spilling rivers of blood again?

Just thinking in that direction made Princess Peacock feel like she was going crazy.

Wasn't Big Brother from the future? How could he be with the Saintess?

Even the Mermaid Queen had actively pursued him, yet he hadn't been swayed.

Although the Saintess was very popular among the demon race, when it came to feminine charm, Princess Peacock still admired the Mermaid Queen.

Relatively speaking, the Saintess served more as a spiritual anchor. Although beautiful, the sense of holiness about her had made everyone overlook her identity as a woman.

Why did Big Brother get together with the Saintess after meeting her only once?

Could everything he said before have been a lie?

Was he not from the future?

At this moment, many people around them began to actively ask the Saintess what was going on.

The Saintess raised her hand, signaling for everyone to quiet down, and then spoke softly, "Actually, he and I had already pledged our love. It was just because of various circumstances that we were separated for so long. Fortunately, heaven took pity on us, and we can finally reunite."

As she spoke, she looked at Zu'an, her eyes filled with tenderness.

Zu'an also took her hand. "Indeed," he said, "we are lovers by nature, and our reunion now is truly the will of heaven."

Seeing the affectionate way the two of them behaved, Princess Peacock immediately felt her face flush. "Saintess, you have no honor!" she inwardly exclaimed.
