Ch 15:
Bai Qian
“I’m ready to call your name, Ye Hua. Take me now.” Bai Qian pulled Ye Hua’s lips to hers. She felt wetness on her face from his tears. Ye Hua wasn’t able to hold back his emotions. Ye Hua held Bai Qian’s face gently with both hands and looked deeply and adoringly into her eyes. Bai Qian’s heart ached with guilt when she saw his genuine expression of love.
Ye Hua was still deeply in love with her.
He’d forgotten Su Jin was a few feet away and carried Bai Qian to her bed. Bai Qian reached out and undressed Ye Hua while he showered hungry kisses on her face and neck. Ye Hua repeated Bai Qian’s name and told her again and again how much he loved her.
Ye Hua was overcome with relief that Bai Qian was ready to love him again, so he’d erased the fact that they were not alone
He kissed Bai Qian slowly and passionately. Ye Hua sensuously covered Bai Qian’s face, lips and graceful neck with urgent wet kisses, buried his face into her hair and inhaled her exquisite sweet scent. Ye Hua’s touch was gentle and tender. Ye Hua fondled, licked and sucked her full breasts and her pink, erect, nipples while penetrating Bai Qian with his fingers. With his skillful hands, Ye Hua brought Bai Qian to orgasm quickly.
Ye Hua moved down between Bai Qian’s silky thighs, lustfully licking her bare skin while moving in the direction her beckoning flower. She felt his hands push her thighs open wider before feeling the delicious sensation of Ye Hua’s eager mouth consume and devour her lower treasure. Bai Qian felt his tongue zealously licking her how outer petals and sensitive button while Ye Hua slid his slender fingers inside her moist bloom. Ye Hua told Bai Qian how sweet her nectar was and that he couldn’t enough of her honey. Bai Qian arched her back, put her hand on Ye Hua head and pushed him deeper into her flower. Bai Qian looked so sultry when she climaxed, that Ye Hua ejaculated just watching her scorching and sizzling reaction. The sweltering and exquisite expression on Bai Qian’s face when she peaked was intoxicating.
Ye Hua pulled himself up and kissed her open mouthed. Bai Qian could taste herself on his wet lips.
He was instantly hard again. Ye Hua reached and grabbed the bed rail behind Bai Qian. He lifted his tan, taut, upper body and started to penetrate Bai Qian deeply. Ye Hua used the railing for leverage to give Bai Qian his solid, abyssal, pounding strokes. Ye Hua then sat up and pulled Bai Qian into his lap, fondled her breasts, and sucked her nipples with pressure while she slowly moved up and down his thick girth. Bai Qian whimpered and moaned that Ye Hua was too big when she felt his thickness fill her drenched inner folds completely.
Bai Qian glanced at Su Jin’s face and saw her staring mesmerized at Ye Hua’s bare sculpted back. She had fallen to her side and couldn’t stop crying, but her hungry eyes watched Ye Hua making love to Bai Qian. Su Jin couldn’t pull her gaze off Ye Hua. Bai Qian smiled before she dropped her head back while grinding herself on Ye Hua. Ye Hua grabbed her round heart-shaped bottom and pushed her down on him harder.
Ye Hua tenderly held Bai Qian’s face and kissed her passionately. He groaned, panted noisily and moaned loudly, “Qian Qian, I love you. I can’t wait…you feel too good. I’m ready to fill you. Come with me.”
Bai Qian ground herself against Ye Hua harder, felt him thicken inside her before his powerful release and climaxed while blatantly crying Ye Hua’s name.
Afterward, Ye Hua held Bai Qian tightly to his body. He thanked her for loving him again and couldn’t stop kissing her. Ye Hua had completely forgotten they weren’t alone and Su Jin was still in the room.
Su Jin was slouched over with her head dropped towards the floor defeated. She was devastated.
Bai Qian quickly looked at Ye Hua and made an expression of shock and remorse. She stood and walked to Su Jin without covering her naked body. The musky scent of her intimacy with Ye Hua lingered on her skin. Bai Qian put her hand on Su Jin’s back and forced tears came to her eyes.
She caressed Su Jin’s shoulder and said apologetically, “Consort Su Jin, I forgot you were still here. How can I make it up to you?” Bai Qian carefully helped Su Jin to her feet but Su Jin stumbled, unable to stand on her own. Su Jin looked, fully took in Bai Qian’s beautiful nude body, and closed her eyes as more tears ran down her face. Bai Qian held her arm, gently patted Su Jin’s back and asked. “Ye Hua, why don’t you visit your side consort tonight. We’ve committed an unforgivable act in her presence.”
Su Jin looked up towards Ye Hua’s direction with an expression of hope on her face.
Ye Hua remained silent momentarily and sighed before he replied, “Qian Qian, come back to me my love. I need you again.”
Bai Qian turned her false, sad, gaze towards Su Jin and said softly, “Return to your chamber Consort Su Jin and I will do my best to send Ye Hua to you.” Bai Qian softly caressed Su Jin’s cheek and said, “Don’t lose hope Su Jin. You will get the little prince you desire one day.”
=====================
Ye Hua
After Qian Qian had finally accepted Ye Hua, the weeks that followed were the happiest days Ye Hua had experienced, since his time at Mount Junji. Just like when they were first married during Qian Qian’s heavenly trial, she’d fallen back in love with him through sharing bodily pleasure. Ye Hua made love to her daily and often. Ye Hua slept with Qian Qian every night and stared at her beautiful, sleeping face for hours. Ye Hua loved when she threw her arm around him in her sleep, as she did when she was SuSu.
Qian Qian was no longer indifferent towards Ye Hua but warm, receptive and caring. She worried about Ye Hua’s work load when she saw all his documents in his study. Qian Qian was openly affectionate and appeared to be fulfilled with Ye Hua and her life in Celestial Heaven.
After his failure to protect SuSu, Ye Hua was cautiously over-protective of Qian Qian. Ye Hua went to her chamber and checked on her often throughout the day. Finally, Ye Hua’s life was complete and so splendid that it felt like a blissful dream.
Almost too wonderful to be true.
One afternoon, Ye Hua found Qian Qian’s room empty. He nervously inquired as to where Qian Qian had gone and Nai Nai replied that she was walking to the lotus ponds with his side consort Su Jin.
Perhaps it was his deep rooted and profound distrust of Su Jin, but he felt an unexplained fear grow inside of him. Ye Hua went to the lotus ponds but didn’t find them. Ye Hua had a sickening gut feeling that took his breath away. He rushed to Zhuxian Terrace and saw Su Jin standing behind his precious love. Qian Qian was slightly looking into the darkness before she suddenly began to fall to the ground. Ye Hua watched Su Jin forcefully push Qian Qian’s limp, falling body forward and Qian Qian fell into the ominous center in an unaware state.
Ye Hua roared Qian Qian’s name, cloud jumped as fast as he could and caught Qian Qian before she was completely consumed by the damaging energy. But Ye Hua was too late. Qian Qian was already severely hurt. She bled from her damaged eyes. A small spot of blood on her colorless gown began to spread rapidly, soaking through the lower part of Qian Qian’s white dress creating a crimson pool underneath her legs.
Qian Qian was still unconscious.
Ye Hua looked up at Su Jin with hostile disbelief. How could she attempt to kill Qian Qian a High Goddess and his Princess Consort? Su Jin looked at Ye Hua with insanity in her eyes. She quietly repeated Qian Qian’s mortal name ‘SuSu’ as if under a spell. Su Jin said SuSu was back and had threatened to make her jump off of Zhuxian Terrace. Su Jin rambled nervously that SuSu had returned to reclaim her eyes. She denied pushing Qian Qian but Ye Hua had seen her clearly for himself. Su Jin had repeated her heinous act as when she framed SuSu, forcing Ye Hua to steal the sight from his innocent, vulnerable, mortal wife.
Ye Hua couldn’t contain or control his rage. Ye Hua had never laid hands on a woman before. He forcibly slapped Su Jin across her face causing her to fly back to the ground before carrying Qian Qian away.
While the Medicine King was in Qian Qian’s room, Ye Hua paced outside Qian Qian’s chamber terrified. The Medicine King finally emerged and told Ye Hua the terrible news. Not only had Qian Qian lost her sight again but she had lost the child she was carrying.
Qian Qian had been in the early stages of pregnancy.
Ye Hua rushed into Qian Qian’s room and found her whimpering. Qian Qian was curled up in a tight ball. He reached to caress her but she jerked away from his touch as if his hand burned her skin. Qian Qian turned her back to Ye Hua, told him to leave and never return.
It was then Ye Hua remembered Su Jin’s insane rambling about SuSu’s return. Tears came to his eyes as he realized Qian Qian had regained her mortal memories of him taking her eyes and giving them to Su Jin.
Ye Hua had not only failed to shield Qian Qian from Su Jin’s evil again but he hadn’t been able to protect his unborn child either. Ye Hua had lost Qian Qian’s love again due to the unforgivable mistakes he’d committed in his foolish past and his present disgraceful negligence.
==================
Bai Qian
Bai Qian requested Su Jin accompany her for a walk to the lotus pond. Bai Qian had been feeling sick for days and said she needed some fresh air. She linked her arm with Su Jin, smiled falsely and asked if Ye Hua had come to her yet. Bai Qian was honest when she told Su Jin that she’d suggested Ye Hua visit her, but he had refused. Bai Qian could see the hurt in Su Jin’s eyes when Bai Qian complained about Ye Hua loving her too much.
Bai Qian patted Su Jin’s hand and mockingly told her to not give up on her hope to birth a prince for Ye Hua.
When they reached the lotus pond, Bai Qian pointed to Zhuxian Terrace in the distance and asked Su Jin about it. Bai Qian told Su Jin that she had only heard about the punishment platform and wanted to see it for herself. Su Jin led Bai Qian to Zhuxian Terrace while proudly admitting that she had lied to SuSu about its ability to return her back to her home in the mortal world.
Su Jin was still laughing when she looked up to see Bai Qian the High Goddess vanish and SuSu appear in her stead.
Bai Qian softened her expression like SuSu’s as she said to Su Jin, “You were right, Su Jin. It did return me back to my home but I came back for what rightfully belongs to me.”
Su Jin stopped laughing, looked at Bai Qian confused and then with fear when SuSu added, “You’ve been using my eyes long enough and I want them back. Afterward, you and I will both jump off Zhuxian Terrace and see where we belong. Isn’t that what you said to me, that I didn’t belong here?”
Bai Qian walked around the circular platform surface, opened the Jade Purity Fan and fanned herself leisurely. Bai Qian had transformed back into an arrogant goddess as she taunted Su Jin and said, “I heard Ye Hua stabbed you in the heart on your wedding day.” Then asked, “Did your previous injury ache the day you watched Ye Hua make love to me?” Bai Qian smirked and sarcastically added, “Wasn’t it you who told me that Ye Hua loved you? When in reality you know Ye Hua despises you Consort Su Jin because you killed his mortal wife SuSu, who was me during my heavenly trial.” Bai Qian leaned slightly, looked into the center and asked, “Would you like me to remove your eyes before or after we jump? Which one of us has enough cultivation to come out alive? An unimportant, puny deity without elite cultivation such as yourself, probably wouldn’t fare well.”
Bai Qian slowly approached Su Jin with her well-sharpened dagger like claws exposed, as Su Jin backed away from her terrified. Bai Qian who was unaware of her pregnancy suddenly saw dark spots before her eyes. Bai Qian briefly lost her footing from her dizziness and had already fainted when Su Jin pushed her off Zhuxian Terrace from behind.
When Bai Qian regained consciousness back in the Hall of Beautiful Youth, she heard the Medicine King explain that she’d not only lost her sight but she had also suffered a miscarriage.
Bai Qian’s aim had been repayment of one of her debts, by taking her eyes back from Su Jin. However, she had unintentionally claimed another debt when she took a child from Ye Hua as he had taken from her. Plus, Bai Qian had also stolen two of Ye Hua’s greatest joys when she’d mistakenly killed his unborn child and reclaimed what she thought was her insincere love from him.
Bai Qian had unknowingly murdered her own innocent child in the name of vengeance.
Bai Qian sighed deeply from her piercing grief. She was tired of her plans and actions for revenge. Bai Qian silently begged SuSu to leave her now but SuSu resisted. SuSu whispered there was still one last thing that Bai Qian needed to do for her and then she would leave Bai Qian forever in peace.
Bai Qian curled herself into a ball and suddenly thought of Mo Yuan. She couldn’t go to him now after allowing herself to become impregnated by Ye Hua again. Bai Qian was unable to cry without her eyes but she was sadly reminiscing about her home in Qing Qiu and Ten Miles Of Peach Blossoms, when she heard her father, the Fox King’s, angry voice ask,
“Bai Qian, what are you doing here in Celestial Heaven and what has happened to your eyes?”
