Chapter 511 Is this already beyond the Shadow Realm?
In the courtyard of the Uchiha Sanfeng, two young women walked slowly towards the bathroom, hand in hand.
Looking at the woman beside her, Uzumaki Megumi lowered her head, her flushed cheeks as if dyed by the sunset, the color lingering for a long time.
The four words "tonight...serve in bed" were like a heavy stone thrown into a lake of my heart, rippling outwards in waves that could not be calmed.
She had long known that her life would no longer be in her own hands.
But when the moment actually came to face it all, my heart still couldn't stop pounding wildly.
"Sister Huiyi, don't be nervous."
Uchiha Ami gently shook her hand, her tone pure and affectionate, her eyes full of innocent kindness.
"Brother Sanfeng has such a strong aura. He's cold to others, but he's so gentle to those around him."
As she spoke, she led Huiyi to the west side, pointing to the small trees in the corner of the courtyard: "Look at those two peach trees, they were planted by Brother Sanfeng himself."
As she approached the bathroom door, Ami gently pushed it open, and the warm steam rushed in, instantly dispelling the lingering scent of the wilderness from Huiyi's body.
"I've already prepared hot water in the bathroom, and there's also a new silk nightgown. The material is so soft and comfortable, much better than your previous clothes."
Uchiha Ami smiled and winked, then gently tucked a stray hair behind her ear before turning and running away, her skirt billowing in a light breeze.
Whirlpool Huiyi thanked her softly, watched Ami's retreating figure, and then slowly walked into the bathroom, raising her hand to close the wooden door.
With a soft creak, it completely shut out all the noise and attention from the outside world.
She leaned against the door for a moment before her tense shoulders relaxed slightly, and then she took off her faded coarse cloth clothes.
She carefully stepped into the bathtub filled with warm water, which flowed down her ankles, over her calves and shoulders, and finally enveloped her entire body.
The warmth seeped into my limbs and bones through my skin, washing away the fatigue and dishevelment of the past few days, and gradually melting away the timidity hidden deep in my bones.
She raised her hand to touch her reflection in the water, her reddened eyes reflecting soft red hair and radiant skin, no longer filled with the fear and confusion of the past.
A glimmer of hope gradually ignited in her eyes: from now on, she would no longer be a victim of bullying and displacement, an orphan of the vortex.
I must strive to become stronger, diligently practice ninjutsu, be a good woman of the Three Peaks, and become a solid link between the Uzumaki and Uchiha clans, striving for peace for my clan and finding a way out for myself.
As the hot water in the bathtub gradually cooled, Huiyi got up, dried herself with a soft towel, and changed into the pink silk nightgown embroidered with floral patterns. The fabric was light and soft, and carried a faint orchid scent against her skin; it was a fine material she had never worn before.
Her skin, flushed and rosy from her recent bath, accentuated her youthful gentleness and charm. Even her usually slightly messy red hair now hung softly over her shoulders, still damp with moisture.
She gently combed her hair in front of the bronze mirror, looked at her own eyebrows and eyes in the mirror, took a deep breath, and suppressed the unease in her heart.
Finally, she walked step by step toward Sanfeng's bedroom. The bluestone slabs were slightly cool from the moonlight, and each step felt like stepping on her heartbeat, both steady and flustered.
Night had fallen, and the inky sky was dotted with sparse stars.
Huiyi stood at the bedroom door, her fingers tightly gripping the hem of her nightgown, her heart pounding even harder than during the day.
She hesitated for a moment, then bit her lip, gently pushed open the half-closed wooden door, and stepped inside.
Uchiha Mitsunori was reclining on a bed covered with soft, snow-white fox fur. His black outer robe had long since been removed, leaving him only in a dark brocade undergarment. The loose collar was casually open, revealing his smooth collarbone and firm chest. The chilling murderous aura that usually surrounded him had been largely subdued.
He held an ancient ninja manual in his hand, his fingertips gently stroking the yellowed pages, exuding a relaxed and casual air.
Seeing Uzumaki Megumi approach, she slowly raised her eyes. The scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan lost its murderous intent, and the lines softened slightly.
He put down the ancient book, extended his hand to Huiyi, his expression natural and calm. In a deep, magnetic voice, which seemed to brook no refusal, he said, "Huiyi, you are very beautiful. Come here and let me take a closer look."
As instructed, Huiyi stepped forward slowly, her skirt brushing lightly against the ground, making a soft sound.
As soon as she reached the edge of the tatami mat, her wrist was gently embraced by Uchiha Mitsumine.
The next second, an irresistible force pulled her into its embrace.
Huiyi exclaimed in surprise, instinctively raising her hand to press against his chest. Her palm touched his warm, firm skin and strong heartbeat, and her cheeks instantly burned as if scorched by fire, even her ears turning red.
She could only lower her head timidly, her long eyelashes casting a faint shadow under her eyelids, her body uncontrollably going slightly limp.
All her struggles and defenses crumbled in his warm embrace. In the end, she let go of all her strength and obediently leaned against him, her nose filled with his unique masculine scent.
Uchiha Mitsumine lowered his head, his nose brushing against the faint scent of orchids in her hair.
It was the fresh scent after a bath mixed with the unique fragrance of a young girl, making his aura even more gentle.
His fingers gently caressed her reddened earlobe, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe, carrying a soothing teasing tone: "Huiyi, don't be afraid, I will be very gentle."
He could clearly feel the trembling of the person in his arms, and he could also sense the unease in her eyes.
He deliberately slowed his movements and gently patted her back with his palm... gradually dispelling her unease.
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned down slightly, his warm lips landing on her forehead with tenderness and affection, as if making a silent promise.
Then, he slowly moved down, brushing past her trembling eyebrows and eyes, and gently pinched her chin with his fingertips, forcing her to raise her head slightly.
Finally, he covered her soft lips with his own, a kiss that was gentle and lingering.
Huiyi's body stiffened abruptly, her mind went blank for a moment, and she instinctively wanted to close her eyes and escape, but he gently pressed down on the back of her neck.
After a moment of panic, she completely relaxed and awkwardly responded to his kiss, her breaths gradually mingling with his.
The soft music continued, and the figures of the two embracing began to sway...
All the unease, alienation, and wariness gradually melted away in this gentle touch, leaving only their burning warmth and increasingly clear heartbeats, pressed tightly together.
The curtains swayed gently in the breeze, and the actions inside the room became increasingly ambiguous.
The moonlight streamed through the window, gently bathing them in its warmth, like a special blessing.
In the quiet night, only the sounds of their intertwined breaths and heartbeats remained, tender and poignant, telling of the unique tenderness and bond between the two of them.
Even the chirping of insects outside the window gradually rose, as if they were cheering for the arrival of spring.
[Ding! The host and Daoist partner, Uzumaki Huiyi, have engaged in dual cultivation. Affection level increased by 5%, both parties' physical constitutions slightly strengthened, and dual cultivation points increased by 5.]
The system notification suddenly rang in Sanfeng's mind, and at the same time, a subtle warmth flowed through his limbs and bones. He could clearly feel that the person in his arms was resisting him less.
Her body was no longer so stiff; instead, she subconsciously snuggled closer to him, as if she had found a warm harbor, and completely let down her guard.
Uchiha Mitsunori picked up Uzumaki Megumi again... kissed her blushing cheek... and continued...
[Ding! The host and Daoist partner, Uzumaki Huiyi, have engaged in dual cultivation. Affection level increased by 6%, both parties' physical constitutions slightly strengthened, and dual cultivation points increased by 5.]
The second notification sound followed immediately, and the warmth was even stronger than before.
The unease in Huiyi's eyes completely faded, replaced by complete dependence, and she even gently grasped his hand.
Uchiha Mitsunori responded with gentle eyes. This increase in affection was not something he deliberately forced, but rather a natural result of their hearts gradually drawing closer.
He picked up Uzumaki Megumi again, and amidst the woman's sweet cries... he continued...
[Ding...ding...ding...]
System notifications rang in Sanfeng's mind one after another, each notification accompanied by a subtle warm current flowing through his body. He could clearly feel that the distance between him and Uzumaki Huiyi was gradually dissipating.
That initial obedience and forbearance is slowly transforming into genuine dependence and longing.
The person in his arms was breathing more steadily, pressed tightly against his chest, as if they had found their final resting place, with no trace of distance between them.
[Ding! Uzumaki Megumi's favorability has increased to 100%. Congratulations, host, on completing the main quest! Reward: Complete Uzumaki Sage Body.]
As the final notification sound faded, a surge of warmth instantly swept over Sanfeng's entire body, more powerful than all the previous warm currents combined. Like a rushing river, it flowed rapidly along his meridians, washing over every corner of his body.
He couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, his fingertips unconsciously tightening as he held Huiyi even closer, afraid of disturbing the sleeping person in his arms.
The hidden wounds left by past battles are gradually repaired under the nourishment of the warm current, and the broken meridians are gently soothed.
The chakra within his body surged and rose wildly like boiling magma, and even the soreness, blurriness, and stinging in his eyes accumulated from frequent use of the Mangekyou Sharingan were slowly subsiding.
His vision gradually returned to clarity, even becoming sharper than at its peak, allowing him to clearly see the fine lines of the sea buckthorn branches outside the window.
10卡......20卡......30卡......40卡......查克拉的数值在脑海中清晰跳动,最终稳稳停在了40卡的节点。
After a moment's thought, Uchiha Mitsunori understood the reason.
Naruto Uzumaki not only possesses the Uzumaki bloodline, but is also the reincarnation of Ashura. With the addition of the massive amount of chakra released from the Nine-Tails, he possesses a terrifying chakra quantity of 100 calories.
With just his complete Vortex Sage Body, he gained 30 calories, which was an unexpected bonus.
With this amount of chakra, he could sustain the use of Susanoo for extended periods without having to worry about declining eyesight as before.
