Chapter 74: CH 46.2

Removing the curse required certain materials and another person to cast the spell.

Xie Jianwei already had the materials in his private storehouse and the spell caster would be naturally Mr. Skeleton, therefore within two days, he managed to gather all the things he needed.

Following the curse-lifting book’s instructions, he prepared and heated all the materials in order, and since he needed to be in direct contact with the concoction because the curse affected his whole body, he put it all in a tub.

After getting all things ready, Xie Jianwei asked Little Skeleton again, “How is it? Are you sure you can cast successfully?”

Normally, common spells need to be chanted, but the Little Skeleton has the ability to defy even the sky… Well, it may also be that the golden finger Lu Li had given to himself in this dreamscape was too thick that not only did he not need to chant, but the success rate was also 100%.

Little Skeleton nodded seriously, expressing that there’s no problem!

Xie Jianwei then began to undress. He was wearing dark clothes and wrapped himself up tightly, thus unbuttoning one by one at this moment was troublesome.

The style of clothing in this dreamscape was cumbersome and lengthy. It took a long time of unbuttoning and unfastening before he managed to take off his upper garments. Just when he was about to remove his pants, he finally noticed that the little skeleton standing opposite him was already suffused with blushing bubbles.

Xie Jianwei looked at him, amused, “What’s the matter?”

Little Skeleton raised his writing board, 

Gorgeous skin, long silver hair, and coupled with those delicate features, the man’s ethereal beauty couldn’t be compared to any mortal.

In fact, Mr. Skeleton hates white color because he himself was nothing but whiteness, yet unlike his gloomy paleness, Xie Jianwei’s complexion was supple and radiant, like milk flowing under the sun, tempting people to touch it.

Xie Jianwei’s eyes flashed, then he asked, “Want to touch?”

Little Skeleton’s bones made a creaking noise due to nervousness.

Xie Jianwei walked towards him, “Come on, try it.”

He openly showed his upper naked body: the slender neck, the sexy collarbone, and the luscious red cherries on his chest that could make people’s mouths dry.

Little Skeleton stretched out his hand and approached him with his trembling bones, but when he was about to touch him, he abruptly drew back.

Xue Jianwei, in turn, grabbed Little Skeleton’s hand and pressed the latter’s phalanges on his body.

The warm and smooth skin directly came into contact with his bones, which made Mr. Skeleton felt like he was about to become a roasted bone!

Xie Jianwei then asked in a faint voice, “How does it feel?”

Little Skeleton: “…”

Xie Jianwei withdrew his hand, and asked, “Did it feel just like how you thought it would be?”

Mr. Skeleton wrote on his board with his other hand, 

“What are you thanking me for? If you like it, then you can touch me every day.” Xie Jianwei said while smiling.

The words on the writing board quickly changed: 

The big exclamation mark was enough proof to show how excited Little Skeleton was.

Xie Jianwei’s smile turned ambiguous as he continued, “You can also kiss me.”

Yan Ke couldn’t help reminding the Military Adviser, [Um…sir, if you continue on teasing the Lord Marshal, he will explode like fireworks.]

In fact, rainbows were already popping up behind him.

Xie Jianwei couldn’t help it. He held Little Skeleton’s face and kissed him anyway, “Let’s solve this curse first.”

What does he mean by solving the curse ‘first’?

Does that mean I can kiss him after that? Can I kiss him, little by little, starting from forehead, to his brilliant eyes, tall nose, then attractive lips and down to that extremely alluring body?

With that thought, Little Skeleton felt that the power in his body was surging like the majestic sea, he… he felt like he could solve even 10,000 curses now!

.

.

.

Everything went very smoothly, and when Xie Jianwei walked out of the tub, his strength had already recovered.

Mr. Skeleton looked at him blankly.

Xie Jianwei shook his hand and said, “Let’s go inside the house.”

Mr. Skeleton followed after obediently.

In fact, given Lu Li’s current body, they couldn’t do much. They couldn’t even kiss normally.

But because of this, ordinary touches felt even more beautiful and precious.

Mr.  Skeleton’s had no skin or flesh. In theory, he shouldn’t be able to feel any sense of touch, but Lu Li could feel it—he could feel the smooth skin, feel the bone-eroding heat, and feel the intoxicating breath.

This sensation didn’t come from his body’s nerves, but from the depth of his soul.

And he’s becoming more keen, more insatiable, more paranoid.

.

.

.

When night came,  Little Skeleton wanted to go out but Xie Jianwei stopped him, “Stay.”

Little Skeleton immediately stood upright nervously.

“Sleep with me.” Said Xie Jianwei as he patted the bedside.

Little Skeleton wrote on the writing board, 

“The weather is hot, so being near you will help me cool down.” Xie Jianwei looked at him without evasiveness, and smiled, “And what’s wrong with you? I think you’re really good.”

Little Skeleton: Really…really…really good… he thinks I’m good!

Has anyone ever seen the personification of the words ‘bursting with joy’ ? Xie Jianwei had the honor of seeing it today.

“Come here, I’m going to sleep.” Xie Jianwei urged him.

Little Skeleton got on the bed, but he was still wrapped in thick clothes.

This didn’t trouble Xie Jianwei at all— instead he leaned on to him and slept peacefully.

.

.

.

As the saying goes, ‘paper cannot contain fire’, and ‘there is no airtight wall in the world.’

The fact that Xie Jianwei had a skeleton around him quickly spread throughout the middle realm.

Bringing a skeleton is nothing. Although you can’t sign a contract, you can still use this undead creature as a servant.

But even if there were reapers who had skeletons servants, no one would eat and sleep in the same bed with one, like Xie Jianwei.

Although beings like them weren’t afraid of a sack of white bones, who the hell would get so intimately close to such an undead being?

What kind of strange hobby was that?

Fortunately, grim reapers minded their own business most of the time and their thirst for a more juicy gossip wasn’t that strong otherwise, Xie Jianwei would definitely make it to the headlines, with the title: A Five-star Grim Reaper’s Perverted Hobby of etc…

Still, even though he didn’t make it to the headline, this matter still exploded within their area.

When Lorren walked out of the Black Domain, his little messenger quickly reported Xie Jianwei’s strange behavior to him.

Lorren had some vague impressions. He remembered that a skeleton saved them, so he didn’t take it seriously and just said, “He is our savior,  and I should thank him as well. But…how am I supposed to thank him?”

This is a bit difficult, Loren thought, but he was optimistic and decided that he should visit the said person first. No matter what the skeleton likes, expressing gratitude was the first and foremost part of basic etiquette.

As a result, when he went to Xie Jianwei’s residence he was shocked by the sight in front of him.

The words of his spirit messenger rang again in his ears, “Um… I saw that Master Wei treats that Mr. Skeleton well—really well…”

Now,  Lorren finally understood:  Xie Jianwei’s attitude towards the skeleton was indeed good— in fact so good— to the point that he’s kissing him!

Xie Jianwei raised his eyebrows upon noticing the unexpected guest, “Is it polite to enter the house without knocking?”

Lorren exploded, “You didn’t close the door either!”

“Oh, I just came back and forgot to do so.”

Lorren didn’t want him to change the subject. He looked at the skeleton, then at Xie Jianwei, and recalled the weird picture of the beauty who was kissing this bag of bones just now. He couldn’t help but say, “You…what do you think you’re doing?”

Xie Jianwei introduced him, “He is Lu Li.” And turned his head to Little Skeleton, “and this is Lorren, also a grim reaper.”

Little Skeleton raised the writing board, 

“Lu Li?” Lorren exclaimed, clearly stunned.

Xie Jianwei deliberately shot a glance at Lorren and said, “What?”

Lorren really yelled this time, “He’s Lu Li?!”

Xie Jianwei didn’t want Little Skeleton to hear this, so he said to Lorren, “I have already prepared the materials so I can help you lift the curse on your body right now.”

He had no choice but to pull Lorren as they walked out.

Lorren’s magic was still blocked therefore he couldn’t even resist, but although he was dragged out, his mouth didn’t stop, “Are you out of your mind, treating some random skeleton as Lu Li? Have you been poisoned by the true Lu Li?”

Yan Ke: Alas, Admiral Loren is speaking nothing but the truth.
