VCRMM: Chapter 615

TL warning: Some non-con in this chapter. Xu Fengqing likes Xenos, but didn’t agree to the position in which they slept together.

In the emperor’s magnificent bedroom, a handsome man in fine clothes stood by the bed, his fingers tightly gripping the black-haired man’s chin as he kissed in an unyielding manner.

“Ah Xe… um…”

“Wait a minute… Ah Xe… mmm…”

The man kept shoving at Xenos shoulders with hands wearing silver bracelets, trying to say something. However, it was useless.

Xenos didn’t want to hear his rejection. Xenos’ already unstable emotions had erupted after being provoked by the earlier apology.

With a thought, the loose water chains tightened instantly. Xu Fengqing was forced to fall backward and crash heavily onto the mattress.

Xenos pulled off the man’s leather belt and threw it on the ground. Then he took a step forward with his long legs, pressing his knees down on either side of Xu Fengqing.

His fair, flawless hands gripped the man’s cheeks tightly, his thumbs pressing against the man’s face as he bent down.

Xu Fengqing frowned in pain. His cheek and abdomen were cut, and the corner of his mouth had also been bitten, blood seeping out. He could taste the faint metallic taste of blood.

He realized for the first time that Xenos was incredibly strong. Of course, it was also possible that Xu Fengqing’s power was restrained, which was why he felt it so deeply.

Xenos bent his head, his long silver hair cascading down. In the shadow of the backlight, his purple eyes met Xu Fengqing’s. It shone so brightly that it seemed to pierce his heart.

“Even if you hate me, I won’t let you go! You have to stay by my side!”

He growled in a low voice like a wounded, trapped beast filled with anger and despair.

Xu Fengqing was intimidated by his imposing aura. At the same time, he felt a pain in his heart.

His Ah Xe… the usually gentle and elegant Ah Xe now had red eyes, a stubborn and crazy expression and was struggling painfully.

“I know you can go back to your world. I can’t stop you, but…”

“I’m telling you something. If you dare to not return after you go back, if you dare to run away from me, I will destroy all the summoning circles of the braves. This way, no brave can ever come back to Roland!”

“You had better think carefully. Can you handle the consequences?”

Xenos knew that the braves project was the work of the elemental elf. If he did this, he would be offending the gods and he might be punished himself.

However, he couldn’t care about that any longer.

Destroy all the braves’ summoning circles? Xu Fengqing certainly couldn’t bear the consequences. The problem was—

“Ah Xe, calm down.”

Xu Fengqing whispered despite the pain and discomfort, “I won’t do what you said. I won’t go back and never return. I care about…”

He wanted to express his feelings but the strange sensation in his body made him stare wide-eyed in disbelief.

“Ah Xe, what are you doing?”

Xenos pulled back from Xu Fengqing’s waist and abdomen. Xu Fengqing’s legs, which had been bound at the ankles and stretched out, were freed as the water chains on his ankles loosened. Then they were bent and raised by a form, firmly fixing them in place.

This was clearly Xenos’ mental power, strong and irresistible.

Then came a stream of water, cool and as thin as a silk threat. It gradually increased in strength, testing the waters little by little.

Meanwhile, Xenos rested his hands on the sides of Xu Fengqing’s face and slowly closed his eyes.

He was controlling the stream of water with his mental power, he was…

“Ah Xe, stop!”

Xu Fengqing twisted and turned in resistance, his reaction much more intense than yesterday. However, a water chain quickly appeared, locking his body and preventing him from retreating.

A blush quickly crept up his neck, spread across his cheeks and even turned his ears bright red.

Xu Fengqing clenched his fists, his teeth gritted tightly. Sweat rolled down his forehead and veins bulged on his neck, but he couldn’t break free no matter how hard he tried.

In the midst of this struggle, the bed creaked and shook, the curtains fell and the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the window, bathing the entire room in a warm orange color. It was both cozy and intense.

Xu Fengqing closed his eyes, his pain mixed with shameful longing. He gritted his teeth but simply couldn’t control himself this time.

“Um…”

Once Xu Fengqing was finally ready, he removed the water and took its place. This caused Xu Fengqing to collapse.

Xu Fengqing was undoubtedly a person with an extremely strong desire for control. He never imagined that he would be the one being dominated in his relationship with Xenos.

He deeply loved Xenos but never let down the defenses in his heart. It was a wall he had built over the years, protecting himself and supporting the world while isolating others.

At this moment, a crack appeared in those walls. Xenos forced his way in with overwhelming force, truly leaving an indelible mark on his heart.

Unforgettable and irreplaceable.

The moment the man’s suppressed yet uncontrollable whimper entered his ears, the irrational Xenos experienced a moment of clarity.

Fengqing…

He opened his eyes and looked at Xu Fengqing.

But that fleeting glimpse in the bright sunset caused the other person to forcefully yank at his bound wrists, reach up and grab the back of Xenos’ neck with one hand, forcefully pulling Xenos into his embrace.

The sound of heavy breathing and heartbeats mixed together as Xenos leaned on Xu Fengqing’s shoulder, hearing the man’s extremely suppressed voice.

“Don’t look at me…”

It was just a glimpse but Xenos clearly saw that Fengqing was crying, his eyes brimming with tears. His face showed a vulnerability that Xenos had never seen in this man before.

A mixture of pleasure and panic welled up inside him.

Xenos felt as if he had been split in two. One half was the gentle and kind person he once was and the other half was the morbid and insane person he was now.

The two halves were constantly tearing at him and the world seemed to start spinning.

What did he do?

He hurt the person he loved deeply, stealing the light deep within this man’s heart.

This was his plan all along. He had made the most thorough preparations for it. He had long thought out the price he would have to pay and the consequences he would have to bear!

However, Fengqing cried.

He cried…

“Ah Xe.”

The man’s voice rang in his ears, suppressed and deep but like a sudden thunderclap. Xu Fengqing said, “Continue.”

The two voices that seemed to tear his soul apart suddenly stopped in his mind, and Xenos was stunned.

Xu Fengqing released his fingers from the back of Xenos’ head. He placed his palm on the back of Xenos’ head and patted it soothingly.

Xenos finally realized that his body was trembling slightly. He felt the man tilt his head slightly, hot burning lips gently landing on his temples.

He looked up in disbelief and met the man’s deep, dark eyes.

Xu Fengqing’s breathing was no longer rapid. His face was flushed but the vulnerability in his expression had been concealed.

“Fengqing…”

Xenos stared blankly, trying to see disgust and hatred from the other person’s expression. All he saw was helplessness and tolerance.

Xu Fengqing stared at Xenos’ handsome face. This person had been so fierce and ruthless just a moment ago, but now he looked like he was about to cry. This made Xu Fengqing feel annoyed yet helpless.

“Untie the chains,” he said softly.

Xenos instinctively obeyed him.

The water chains were removed. Then he saw the man reach out and gently cup his face without hitting or pushing him away.

Xu Fengqing raised his head slightly and gently kissed Xenos’ forehead. He had indeed broken down for a moment, but he recovered when he felt Xenos’ pained struggle.

Indeed, he never expected this situation to occur. However, it didn’t seem unacceptable if that person was Xenos.

Of course, he didn’t want to do it in this atmosphere. Still, it had already happened. He could only calm down and think of a way to deal with it.

Xenos was somewhat dazed. He felt the touch on his forehead and felt as if he was in a dream. His heart, filled with despair and death, started to beat again.

He watched Xu Fengqing lie back down. He stared into this man’s eyes and was speechless for a long time.

Finally, Xu Fengqing broke the silence. He stroked Xenos’ soft, burning skin with his thumb and whispered, “Do you want to continue?”

“Is it okay?” Xenos asked in a hoarse voice.

Xu Fengqing raised a hand and covered the eyes that had become bright again. “Continue.”

His vision was blocked and only vague light and shadows were visible. Nevertheless, Xenos didn’t pull the man’s hand away. He adjusted his posture slightly and moved gently.

He heard the man’s suppressed groans, deep and sensual. The sound alone stirred every nerve in his body.

He closed his eyes, focusing on feeling and imagining.

Outside the window, the sky was ablaze with crimson clouds that were like dazzling fireworks. The sun gradually sank in the west and the bright moon rose high in the sky.

Xu Fengqing lay quietly on the bed with his eyes closed.

He felt Xenos manipulating the water to cleanse him before using water healing magic to heal his wounds. This included the bitten corner of his mouth and his bruised wrists, which quickly returned to normal.

After an unknown amount of time, the room fell silent again.

He opened his eyes and saw Xenos sitting on the edge of the bed with his back to him, head bowed and wearing a soft silk robe.

Xu Fengqing stared at the ceiling of the bed before slowly sitting up.

Xenos heard the noise and turned to see Xu Fengqing propping himself up on his arms. He wanted to help, but when his fingertips touched Xu Fengqing’s arm, he hesitated and withdrew his hand.

“Fengqing, I…”

“I’m hungry.”

Upon hearing that he was hungry, Xenos quickly replied, “I’ll have someone make something…”

“There is no need.”

Xu Fengqing stopped him, got up from the bed and went to the tea table.

He felt a slight soreness in his waist but it was within tolerable limits. He casually opened his backpack, took out the ingredients and utensils and turned on the cooking panel.

Finally, Xu Fengqing placed two steaming bowls of noodles on the table and moved one of them towards Xenos.

“There are no fresh ingredients, so let’s just make do with this.”

Xenos blinked as he looked between Xu Fengqing and the bowl of noodles. He opened his mouth but couldn’t say a word.

He was forced to sit down opposite Xu Fengqing. He stayed silent as he started to eat.

This was a bowl of beef noodles. The ingredients weren’t top-quality, but Xenos ate it with great enjoyment. It was as if the chill in his body had been dispelled and all the darkness could no longer get close to him.

Xenos held his chopsticks, eating politely but quickly.

His grip on the chopsticks was very precise Xu Fengqing had taught him and he could now use them expertly.

Once the bowl of noodles was almost empty, two thick slices of meat were placed in his bowl.

Xenos paused for a moment before looking up to meet the man’s eyes again. It was the middle of the night but he seemed to see his own sun.

“Fengqing, I’m sorry.”

He did such an unforgivable thing, but Fengqing didn’t blame him and even cooked for him. Xenos felt like he was about to be overwhelmed by guilt.

Xu Fengqing hummed in agreement and continued eating his noodles with his head down.

Seeing this, Xenos could only lower his head again to eat every last drop of the noodles, meat and broth.

“Do you want more?”

He heard Xu Fengqing ask this question as he put the bowl down.

Xenos was speechless. He looked at Xu Fengqing, all his sharpness and ferocity gone. Only bewildered unease and vulnerability were left behind.

Seeing him like this, Xu Fengqing got up, walked around the table and hugged Xenos.

“Have you calmed down?”

He rested his chin on top of Xenos’ head and gently rubbed it.

“Yes.” Xenos nestled in his arms, inhaled the man’s scent and felt his emotions gradually calming down.

“Fengqing, I…”

Xu Fengqing sensed his intention and said, “Besides apologizing, is there anything else you would like to say?”

Xenos heard this calm, encouraging and expectant voice and couldn’t help looking up.

He stared into the man’s gentle and deep eyes before raising his courage to say what he should’ve said a long time ago. “Fengqing, I admire you. Please… stay by my side and don’t leave me.”

“Okay?”

Xu Fengqing looked him over and finally smiled slowly. He lowered his head and kissed Xenos’ rosy lips.

“Okay, I promise you.”

Xenos was stunned and stared blankly at Xu Fengqing. “Why?”

Why did this man agree so easily?

“Because…”

Xu Fengqing gazed deeply at him, finally uttering the feelings he had kept buried for so many years. “I love you too.”

“I did such a terrible thing to you. Aren’t you angry?” Xenos could sense that Xu Fengqing might’ve eventually given in, but he was probably reluctant.

Xu Fengqing didn’t say anything and just cleared away the dishes on the table. Then under Xenos’ puzzled gaze, he put an arm around Xenos and helped him sit down.

“Fengqing… um…”

Now it was Xenos’ turn to have his lips sealed.

His back was pressed against the dining table and his long silver hair cascaded down. Xenos, bathed in moonlight, possessed skin as white as snow. He was both holy and alluring, and was as beautiful as a painting.

“I’m very angry.”

Xu Fengqing untied his sash. “So now it is my turn.”
