《Forbidden Desire》2《Living by Desire》
Chapter Twenty-Nine: Rewriting Fate
1、【The Afterglow of Miracles】
The moment she fully awakened from chaos, the world fell eerily silent.
Inside the residence, morning sunlight lay like scattered gold leaf, gently covering the messy bed. Sun sat up abruptly, gasping for air; the metallic scent of that blood-red thunderstorm still seemed to linger at her nose.
Her trembling hand touched her own cheek. What her fingertips felt was no longer that cold, marble-like, deathly perfect skin, but a warm, living human texture flushed with blood.
“Lu Yuan…… Lu Yuan!” Sun frantically pushed the man beside her.
Lu Yuan opened his eyes. The dark-purple pupils had lost their demonic allure and returned to their original clean, deep black.
He looked at Sun, his eye sockets instantly reddening. Propping himself up, he ignored the weakness throughout his body and pulled Sun tightly into his embrace.
“We won…… Sister, Shen Yan Zhi has disappeared. That hell…… has completely shattered.”
At that moment, Sun felt an unprecedented, powerful throb deep in her lower abdomen. It was not an illusion, nor a fluctuation of spiritual energy, but a living, tenacious new life that, after crossing centuries of temporal rifts, had taken root once more inside the mother’s warm womb.
2、【The Gift of Fate】
Although they had returned to the modern era, both bodies were extremely weakened from the immense consumption of crossing time and space.
The mysterious elder’s voice echoed in their minds for the last time:
“The century-old demonic body has been broken; a mortal frame cannot bear a divine child. To keep this child, you must completely fuse the last remaining spiritual roots of this century into his protective bone and blood. From now on, you will be merely a pair of infatuated mortals in the mortal world, with no more divine powers.”
Sun looked at Lu Yuan; neither of them showed the slightest hesitation.
This was the final rite to “bid farewell to the past” and “welcome the new life.” Sun took the initiative to kiss Lu Yuan, stripping away each other’s restraints. This union held no hatred, no plunder—only endless tenderness and the bond of life and death.
“Lu Yuan…… this is the last time I will absorb your energy…… From now on, let’s grow old together.”
Sun’s eyes grew slightly moist. She flipped over and straddled Lu Yuan’s lap. Her slender fingers grasped the thick, veined, burning-hot shaft, aimed it at her already overflowing depths, and slowly sank down.
