Chapter 152 – Domineering and Obsessed Jade Spirit VS Ascetic, Cleanliness-Obsessed CEO (06)
So Mu Jin, following his usual habit, took off his clothes and placed them aside, then stepped into the shower. He enjoyed the warm water flowing over his body, washing away the exhaustion, feeling comfortable.
Mo Yan, upon seeing Mu Jin completely undress, couldn’t look away. He had initially thought, “Just a human, what’s there to see?” But when that fair skin was exposed before him, the jade spirit felt like his brain had stopped functioning.
After all, he had lived for a thousand years. Although he had been sealed for a few hundred years, he had seen countless people and spirit beasts during the previous few hundred years of cultivation, even if he had only just awakened his spiritual intelligence. However, it seemed that no other creature was more beautiful or more attractive to him than the person in front of him.
Mo Yan was filled with amazement, feeling as if a warm current was coursing through his entire body, even though he clearly couldn’t solidify his form yet.
Unconsciously, he moved closer, and closer still. Mo Yan gazed at Mu Jin, gently reaching out his hand, tracing his silhouette in the air, unable to resist the urge to touch.
Mo Yan eventually gave in to his desire, trying to touch Mu Jin. But as his hand passed through him, he felt a wave of frustration.
Indeed, his spirit couldn’t solidify yet, unable to touch anything. Feeling annoyed, he watched as Mu Jin’s wet fingers touched his jade pendant.
Initially, Mu Jin hadn’t intended to touch the jade pendant. Perhaps the visual impact he caused on Mo Yan was significant, leading to his touch being reflected on the jade pendant. Now, the jade pendant, once cold, transmitted warmth.
Finding it amusing, Mu Jin touched the pattern on the jade pendant. When he touched it, he noticed Mo Yan stiffen.
Mo Yan couldn’t touch other objects yet, but the sensation of touching the jade pendant could be felt by his spirit.
It was a warm and smooth feeling, making Mo Yan tremble. An unfamiliar emotion surged within him, spreading throughout his being. Despite his reluctance, he enjoyed the touch.
Mo Yan thought to himself, “It must be his aura that nourishes me, making me reluctant to leave, wanting to get closer, wanting more of this touch, it must be!”
Mo Yan thought to himself and once again approached Mu Jin, watching him tenderly caress his jade pendant. He felt a sense of delight.
“See, my jade pendant is top-notch. Have you ever seen such exquisite craftsmanship?” Mo Yan thought triumphantly. “I’m even more impressive. You’ll see.”
However, as Mo Yan basked in his self-satisfaction, he suddenly saw Mu Jin pick up his jade pendant and inspect it with disdain. “I heard this jade pendant has been around for centuries, how much dust must have accumulated on it?”
“Ugh, I should have disinfected it twice before bringing it!” Mu Jin exclaimed before grabbing a nearby bar of soap and meticulously scrubbing the jade pendant.
Mo Yan’s expression turned grim upon hearing Mu Jin’s words. Although he couldn’t fully understand the concept of disinfection, he could sense that he was being despised. Especially seeing Mu Jin’s serious expression as he scrubbed, it felt like he was being called dirty!
This made Mo Yan furious. He thought, “My jade pendant is priceless, desired by many. How dare he disdain it? And to think that one day even I, a spirit, would be despised!”
Furthermore, he had attained consciousness long ago. After cultivation, his jade pendant had self-purifying abilities; it was clean without needing washing! How dare he call it dirty and talk about disinfection!
Mo Yan snorted, glaring at Mu Jin. He thought, “The people of the Mu family are just that, nothing more than bad people, regardless of their cute appearances. The essence of the Mu family is rotten.“
Once he regained his strength, he vowed to retaliate fiercely. He would catch this detestable little fellow and scrub him thoroughly with soap. Then he would make him see who was dirty and in need of washing and disinfection.
Yet, strangely, as Mo Yan imagined himself scrubbing Mu Jin’s body with soap, he felt a surge of heat in his heart. His gaze involuntarily drifted to the bare body before him.
He couldn’t help but think that if he could touch that skin, it would be soft and smooth, beyond imagination.
Mo Yan swallowed hard, his eyes filled with an obsession he hadn’t realized. He felt an urgent need to regain his strength, to exact revenge quickly, to show this little fellow his power.
Mu Jin didn’t mind what his partner might be scheming at the moment; he was more interested in observing the unpredictable changes in Mo Yan’s expression—sometimes fierce, sometimes smug. Finding it amusing, Mu Jin couldn’t resist teasing him a little.
After a simple cleaning of the jade pendant, Mu Jin put it back around his neck. Gently touching it, knowing it was the embodiment of his beloved, Mu Jin’s affection for it grew even stronger.
Feeling refreshed after the shower, Mu Jin felt like the fatigue of the day had drifted away. Putting on his robe, he walked to the bedside and lay down comfortably, burying himself in the soft blanket.
Knowing that his lover, though without a physical form, was always by his side, and feeling the familiar aura enveloping him, Mu Jin soon drifted back into a sweet slumber.
Once Mu Jin was asleep, Mo Yan’s courage grew. Facing Mu Jin, he stared intently, taking in a deep breath of the refreshing aura surrounding him.
This aura was irresistible, and Mo Yan found himself involuntarily drawn to it. Closing his eyes, Mo Yan absorbed Mu Jin’s essence to nourish himself.
In the original storyline, the protagonist passed away early, but given his status, reigning over the Mu family business, his aura was naturally strong.
Mu Jin didn’t mind sharing a bit more with his lover, especially since his own spiritual power was exceptionally strong. So, he was happy to provide a bit of his energy to nourish his beloved.
Mo Yan, floating in mid-air, absorbed Mu Jin’s aura to nourish his soul. Unconsciously, he began to practice his techniques, even noticing his ethereal spirit gradually solidifying.
With a “thud,” Mo Yan suddenly realized that he had solidified his body by absorbing the aura from Mu Jin’s body.
However, before he could feel pleased, he heard a noise from the sleeping person. Mu Jin’s wings fluttered continuously, seemingly disturbed by the noise.
Mo Yan quickly concealed himself, anxiously waiting in silence until Mu Jin settled back into sleep before he breathed a sigh of relief.
After some time, when Mo Yan was sure Mu Jin was sound asleep again, he reappeared. But to his surprise, his solidified body started flickering between solid and translucent states. It seemed his soul hadn’t fully stabilized yet.
Remembering the experience before solidifying, Mo Yan cautiously approached Mu Jin again, took a deep breath, and tried to absorb his aura.
After a short while, Mo Yan felt his strength increase, confirming that his soul had solidified because of the person in front of him.
However, ordinary people shouldn’t possess such powerful energy and aura. Subconsciously not wanting to harm Mu Jin, Mo Yan quickly extended his senses to check Mu Jin’s condition.
Finding nothing wrong with him, Mo Yan finally relaxed. He closed his eyes again, focusing on absorbing Mu Jin’s aura.
The scent of the person in front of him was intoxicating, with a hint of lotus leaf fragrance mixed with a slight bitterness, exceptionally refreshing.
Moreover, after absorbing his aura, Mo Yan noticed that even the faint glow around his jade pendant became brighter.
However, after a while, Mo Yan felt unsatisfied with just absorbing from a distance. Once his strength had recovered a bit more, he boldly approached Mu Jin.
Fearing to wake him again, he gently blew on Mu Jin’s face, using a touch of magic to deepen his slumber. Then, he simply merged his entire spirit form with his body, eagerly absorbing his aura.
Inside his consciousness, Agent 003 watched the scene in front of him with shock. Seeing the target firmly snuggling up to Mu Jin, the inherent creepiness made even the system feel uneasy.
Knowing that his host was deeply asleep due to some minor spells cast by the target, after careful consideration, Agent 003 decided not to wake Mu Jin up.
After all, he knew that even if Mu Jin woke up, he wouldn’t stop the target. Perhaps he would even cooperate, considering their mutual infatuation.
After absorbing Mu Jin’s aura for a while, Mo Yan opened his eyes again. Confirming that his body had truly solidified once more, he felt overwhelming joy.
Feeling his consciousness extend a bit farther, it seemed that his soul could now distance itself from the jade pendant a bit more. This aura nourished his soul, making Mo Yan feel extremely comfortable.
Finally able to materialize and interact with the physical world, Mo Yan gazed upon the slumbering young man before him. Recalling the scene he had witnessed in the bathroom earlier, he couldn’t resist reaching out towards Mu Jin, eager to experience the sensation of touching him.
His large hand gently touched Mu Jin’s round face, feeling the smooth skin against his fingertips. Mo Yan felt his senses completely drawn in by the touch.
The feeling of touching this person was so good that Mo Yan felt a bit addicted. Knowing that Mu Jin was deeply asleep, Mo Yan dared to pull him into his arms, earnestly examining his face.
Thinking that although the descendants of the Mu family were despicable, he had to admit, this Mu surname individual was truly handsome. To expedite his recovery of power, it was better not to harm him for the time being. Everything could wait until his strength was fully restored.
With these thoughts in mind, Mo Yan buried his entire face in Mu Jin’s neck, taking a deep breath and feeling a sense of comfort spreading through his body.
