Imdiately, Xi Yao clutched the bodice to her chest, squatted on the ground, and began crying her heart out.
"Waaah! After 10,000 years, I’ve finally seen sothing that once belonged to again! The Nine Supre Immortal Masters, I, Xi Yao, swear that one day I will make you pay for your cris in blood! Sob... Xiaobei, thank you!"
At that mont, Xi Yao was like a deranged girl, her words completely incoherent. Chen Xiaobei’s heart ached as he watched her sorrowful figure. As the Demon Realm Queen, Xi Yao was always strong; pride and aloofness were her mottos in life. But now, she was just like a wounded little girl, crying her lungs out without any regard for her proud image.
Chen Xiaobei didn’t try to comfort her or say anything.
Being locked up for 10,000 years... Just the thought of such a long, lonely ti is terrifying. For that reason, he understood how she felt.
But understanding was one thing; this had to end eventually. Xi Yao had been crying for a full ten minutes since he had arrived, with no signs of stopping. Chen Xiaobei felt like his ears were about to burst. Thankfully, he was the only one who could see her. If any outsiders heard this, they might think he had done sothing terrible to her.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Chen Xiaobei squatted in front of her and said, exasperated, "That’s enough crying, don’t you think? Can you take a break and tell if this Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt is so kind of treasure?
"Didn’t you tell that all the treasures you once had were stolen by the Nine Supre Immortal Masters?
"If that’s the case, how did I manage to find this Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt?
"Woman, you aren’t lying to , are you?"
"Who’s lying to you!" Xi Yao glared at him fiercely. "This Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt was just a piece of my underwear back then. What was there to steal? If even this counts as a treasure, wouldn’t that make , the Demon Realm Queen, seem utterly pathetic? Besides, are you even a man? Can’t you comfort when I’m this upset? Chen Xiaobei, you’re an asshole!"
Xi Yao yelled, her defenses shattered. She gritted her teeth, looking as if she wanted to tear him to pieces. And yet, with that pained, pretty expression, she looked truly pitiful. She was already breathtakingly beautiful, but now her pretty face was streaked with tears from crying so hard. Combined with her waist-length black hair, she looked like a graceful maiden who had stepped right out of a manga. In short, Xi Yao was indescribably beautiful.
A strong urge to protect her welled up within him, and Chen Xiaobei leaned forward, wrapping his arms around Xi Yao.
"I’m sorry! I didn’t an to mock you. I just couldn’t bear to see you cry," Chen Xiaobei said, gently patting her back. "Alright, alright, it’s all my fault, okay?"
"Fine. At least you have so conscience," Xi Yao huffed lightly.
Being held by Chen Xiaobei like this sent a wave of heat through her body, making her extrely uncomfortable. Realizing this, she quickly broke free. Looking at the small bodice in her hand, she sighed softly.
"Sigh... I never thought that after 10,000 years, I would see my favorite Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt again. It’s a sha that it needs to be worn with my Heavenly Demon Silkworm Armor to unleash its true power. For , it’s nothing more than a nto now, not of much use.
"But..." Xi Yao’s tone turned playful as she looked at Chen Xiaobei. "For an ordinary person like you, it is a truly rare treasure."
"What do you an?" Chen Xiaobei asked, curious.
"What do you think I an!" Xi Yao said arrogantly. "I am the Queen of the Demon Realm, possessing the purest Celestial Demon Sacred Body known through the ages—immortal and indestructible. This Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt, although just a very ordinary piece of underwear, has now beco a Defensive Spirit Artifact after I wore it for a thousand years, constantly in contact with my skin. As long as you wear it, it can help you withstand three full-force strikes from an opponent with a power level ten tis your own. However, after three uses, you’ll have to bring it to , the Demon Realm Queen, to help you recharge it!"
As she spoke, Xi Yao proudly patted her ample chest, making Chen Xiaobei’s vision swim.
Looking at Xi Yao’s smug face, Chen Xiaobei realized he had been completely taken in. His face bead with joy. "So that’s how it is! I had no idea this thing was so powerful. I’ve really hit the jackpot this ti."
But then, he suddenly felt sothing was amiss, and his face turned purple.
"Xi Yao, did you just say that I have to *wear* it to block attacks?"
"Yes," Xi Yao gave him a look that clearly said ’obviously’. "The Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt is ant to be worn. How else would you use it?"
"Wear it my ass!" Chen Xiaobei nearly spat blood. "This is a woman’s bodice! I’m a proud, upstanding man! If I wore this and soone found out, they’d think I was a pervert, wouldn’t they?" He shook his head frantically like a rattle drum, his face a mask of utter speechlessness.
PFFT!
Xi Yao, however, revealed a flirtatious smile. "Don’t worry. This Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt might be trash to , but it’s far beyond any ordinary artifact. I will cast a secret spell on you that will rge it with your body. That way, no one will ever find out!"
"Are... are you sure?" Chen Xiaobei asked weakly.
"Of course, I’m sure!" Xi Yao rolled her eyes at him. "You’re getting a great deal, so stop complaining and just be happy about it. Now hurry up and take off your outer clothes so I can help you put on the Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt!"
Looking at Xi Yao’s eager expression, Chen Xiaobei felt that this girl was ssing with him. But he had to admit, the Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt was incredibly useful to him. It could withstand a full-force strike from an opponent ten tis his power level! He didn’t know when the Iron Fist Ancestor would co looking for him, and he couldn’t guarantee he would be able to break through to the Heaven Rank by then. If he couldn’t, this Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt would be his life-saving trump card! This was all thanks to Qiu Xingcai. If it weren’t for her, he probably never would have gone to that fishpond in his life. Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei decided he would have to repay her properly by finding an opportunity to get her into bed a few more tis.
After taking off his outer clothing, Xi Yao stepped forward and hung the bodice around his neck. The mont the Heavenly Silkworm Brocade Garnt touched his chest, Chen Xiaobei felt an intense, yet incredibly pleasant coolness spread through him.
But his face turned beet red. This was so humiliating! A grown man wearing a bodice, and a pink one at that. Even if no one else could see, he himself couldn’t accept it.
Yet, Xi Yao seed srized as she exclaid, "Wow! I thought it would look completely out of place, but you wearing a woman’s bodice... it doesn’t look half-bad. How about we just leave it like this?"
"XI YAO!!!" Chen Xiaobei’s eyes blazed with fire. "You’d better make this bodice disappear right now, or I won’t be so polite anymore!"
