Chapter 1635: Chapter 1495: Sudden Kiss
In the vast deep blue sea, there stands a snow-white solitary island.
From its location on land, the island stretches out beautiful corals toward the sea region, spreading like snow on the sea level, looking beautiful and enchanting.
Chu Mu and Ning Man’er were soaring in the high altitude, deeply hidden within a thick rain cloud.
Through the clouds, Chu Mu saw many strange sea monsters crawling on the island, and the unusual fluctuations in the current also indicate that many water-based creatures are lurking under the sea.
“Brother, the Heavenly Boundary Monument is on White Island,” Ning Man’er pointed to the island and said.
The towering monument reaches into the clouds, and Chu Mu can even see those familiar yet ancient characters engraved at the very top.
Unfortunately, that plot of sky is also firmly under the control of the underlings of the Catastrophe Sea Demon, and Chu Mu did not dare to approach there recklessly.
“How are we going to break in?” Ning Man’er asked quietly.
“Their defense of the sea region is very tight; the air and land are rather average,” Chu Mu said.
As he spoke, Chu Mu tossed his hand and scattered some dark particles.
These dark particles dispersed in the air, gradually expanding and slowly turned into black clouds.
This change was not rapid, as if it were a naturally forming weather pattern, with dark clouds slowly covering the area from a distance along the wind.
Before long, the dense dark clouds began to slowly shroud this area, turning the scorching sea region slightly dark and unclear.
“We’ll sneak in.” After Chu Mu created enough shadows, he planned to directly infiltrate the island.
Ning Man’er nodded, voluntarily pressing her soft body against Chu Mu’s, wrapping her arms around his neck with a cute smile on her face.
With Catastrophe Sea Demons guarding and patrolling inside and outside White Island, Chu Mu’s infiltration would certainly be difficult, but the greater the difficulty, the more interesting it seems. Ning Man’er liked this kind of thrilling game.
Chu Mu picked up Ning Man’er, and as he moved forward, their figures slowly overlapped with the shadows, gradually merging into the darkness.
“Conceal your aura,” Chu Mu reminded Ning Man’er.
“Mm.” Ning Man’er nodded her head.
Moving under the black clouds, Chu Mu slowly approached the island filled with white coral.
At a position less than ten meters from Chu Mu and Ning Man’er, there were two creatures suspended nearby with golden large fish fins but used as wings.
They had a pair of huge protruding eyes, meticulously scrutinizing their surroundings.
Ning Man’er’s eyes widened as she keenly observed the two creatures using their fins as wings while Chu Mu employed his stealth ability.
Suddenly, one of the creatures turned its skull, its enormous eyeballs looking in Ning Man’s direction.
Ning Man’er was also staring at it when the sea monster suddenly turned its head, genuinely startling her.
She quickly pursed her lips and dared not even breathe.
Alarming these two finned creatures wasn’t a big deal, but in this sky area, there were three to four thousand such monsters. If all of them were alerted, Chu Mu would be in trouble.
“Lulu~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”
The finned creature emitted an unpleasant sound, then turned its head again, looking bewildered.
It did not notice that just five meters away in the shadows, there were two silhouettes closely huddled together. As it turned away, these outlines slowly moved forward.
These finned monsters were distributed near White Island, many of which were very strong. Passing through these three to four thousand patrolling sea monsters was not an easy task.
“Lulu~~~ lulu, lulu~~~ lulu, lulu, lulu~~~~~~~~~~”
Suddenly, the finned monsters emitted an inexplicable call.
When Chu Mu thought he was discovered and was about to make a dash for it, he realized these finned monsters were not coming toward him but instead were changing their defensive formation.
This change in the guard formation caused Chu Mu a headache because right in front, behind, and to the sides of him were finned monsters. At such a distance, a single move by Chu Mu would be noticed.
The effect of remaining still in the shadows was far greater than moving within them, yet Chu Mu was awkwardly caught between the two, not daring to make any rash moves.
“Brother, what should we do?” Ning Man’er asked in a very soft voice.
Chu Mu still had a Space Barrier around him that could block the sound from escaping, so a quiet conversation would not have too great an impact.
“After a space jump, spatial ripples will appear, and they will definitely notice the intruders… Now, we may just have to wait until they change their patrol formation again. Truly unlucky, how did we get stuck within the formation,” Chu Mu said.
“Hmm. But seeing Brother just now, all tense, was quite amusing,” Ning Man’er chuckled.
“What’s so amusing about that? These finned monsters aren’t very formidable, but the things on the island are a real threat. If we get surrounded, it’s going to be dangerous,” Chu Mu said.
The Water System has a restraining effect on the Fire Series. Below us is still a vast ocean. Fighting here isn’t as restrictive as under the sea, but Demon Flame ultimately struggles to unleash its full power. There are many Sea Demons inside White Island, and their strength is indeed impressive, likely the elite under the control of Catastrophe Sea Demon.
Ning Man’er slowly turned her head and realized that indeed there were many Finned Sea Monsters surrounding them. She didn’t dare to speak too loudly.
This standoff lasted for a very long time, and these Finned Sea Monsters had not changed their formation, causing Chu Mu, stuck in the midst of them, to feel a headache. His hand, holding Ning Man’er, began to feel sore.
“Blub blub blub~~~~~~~~~~~~”
Suddenly, one of the Finned Sea Monsters started moving towards them. Its scaly body came within less than two meters from Chu Mu and Ning Man’er!
Ning Man’er got startled, clenching Chu Mu tightly in haste.
The Finned Monster was covered in sticky mucus and sharp spines, looking fiercely frightful. Ning Man’er hadn’t felt much before, but as it drew so close, she couldn’t help feeling panicked, not wanting this disgusting creature to touch her.
Fortunately, after moving a few steps, the Finned Monster stopped and hovered in place like a statue.
Ning Man’er let out a sigh of relief, and that breath of fragrance almost brushed Chu Mu’s cheek. At this moment, Ning Man’er realized how close her face was to Chu Mu’s cold and handsome nose, and his lips too.
Whenever Ning Man’er accompanied Chu Mu on his training journeys, they would share a tent. Though the tent was spacious, there were times when she accidentally rolled into Chu Mu’s arms while sleeping, and upon waking, she’d find herself facing his face.
Chu Mu often had an expressionless face, even while sleeping. Ning Man’er couldn’t figure out why such a cold and resolute face held a special kind of magic.
This time, being so close, Ning Man’er again felt the unique magic of Chu Mu’s face and his deeply attractive black eyes.
Staring into Chu Mu’s eyes, Ning Man’er, for some reason, wanted to get a closer look into their depths. Thus, inexplicably breaking the slight distance between them, her small, upturned nose gently bumped against Chu Mu’s unyielding nose. Then, her slightly upturned, pink lips lightly touched the corner of Chu Mu’s mouth.
Lips sweet and fragrant, warm and smooth, an endless delight.
Chu Mu was stunned. Before he could react, the kiss was taken away!
After boldly kissing Chu Mu on the lips, Ning Man’er seemed to snap out of her trance, her fair cheeks instantly flushed with red.
When she noticed Chu Mu’s black eyes fixed on her, her embarrassment deepened and her ears turned red, preventing her from meeting his gaze.
“I… I meant to kiss your cheek,” Ning Man’er said, her voice laced with embarrassment.
Ning Man’er was quite clingy by nature, and with the soul contract between them, their closeness was rooted at the soul level. She loved to hug Chu Mu’s arm and was fond of him embracing her too. Partly, the soul contract made their affectionate behavior seem natural, and after the events they’d been through, she found a sense of security and dependency in Chu Mu…
But no matter how close they were, kissing someone’s lips was a different matter.
Chu Mu himself was puzzled. Last time, Mu Qingyi had surprised him with a kiss when they got married, and he had let it pass…
This time, Ning Man’er sprang a sudden attack too, kissing the same spot. This left Chu Mu speechless for quite a while, not knowing what to say.
It made him recall the moment they entered the sea, when Ning Man’er swam gracefully around him like a little mermaid, her body almost fully revealed, causing Chu Mu an embarrassing rush of red to his face.
Thinking about the fact that he was currently holding this charming and sensual body, with the taste of her kiss lingering on his lips, Chu Mu could feel his heart racing…
Chu Mu disliked the water, but now he wished for a basin of cold water to be poured over him, to extinguish the distracting thoughts in his mind.
Ning Man’er could sense Chu Mu’s quickened breathing and the warmth of his breath, making her heart flutter and pound like a startled deer.
Previously, she followed Chu Mu around carefreely, never pondering over too many things—just enjoying the feeling. But now, the feeling was different, as if she no longer dared to look into Chu Mu’s eyes, her heart was so fluttered that she wanted to break free from his embrace and hide somewhere…
“Blub blub blub~~~~~~~~~~~~blub blub blub~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”
Finally, the Finned Sea Monsters changed their formation again.
Upon seeing this, Chu Mu snapped out of his daze and swiftly hugged Ning Man’er tight, flying straight toward White Island amidst the monsters.
…
Having landed on White Island, Chu Mu’s emotions finally began to settle a little.
Ning Man’er’s cheeks were still tinged with pink, and after some time, she spoke in a delicate voice: “Brother, I… it wasn’t on purpose.”
“Don’t do this again,” Chu Mu warned, as if nothing had happened.
“Okay,” Ning Man’er responded, her mind still replaying the earlier scene.
She wondered how she had ended up kissing him. Such actions were typically initiated by the man, weren’t they?
