I alone am the Honoured One!

Zhao Tian sat quietly on the edge of the bed, his bare feet resting against the cool floor and his eyes followed Ji Shuang as she moved gracefully around the room.

The light filtering through the curtains bathed her in a soft glow as she picked up pieces of her robe and undergarments one by one.

Without hesitation, she pulled the towel from her body, letting it slip to the floor standing there naked.

Her silhouette was elegant with the gentle arch of her hips, the curve of her thighs, the full, natural swell of her breasts.

Her skin still had the faint sheen of moisture from earlier, and strands of her hair fell lazily down her back.

Zhao Tian couldn't look away and looked at her seductive body.

Ji Shuang, sensing his gaze, smiled softly to herself but said nothing.

She stepped into her underwear and then reached for her bra, slipping it over her shoulders.

Zhao Tian continued to watch shamelessly and fully captivated by her beauty.

After securing her underwear, she turned to face him and walked over as she came to a stop before him.

Then, without a word, she straddled his lap and sat down gently, wrapping her arms around his shoulders and resting her forehead against his neck.

Zhao Tian's hands instinctively found her waist as his fingers lightly caressed the soft fabric of her undergarments.

His gaze dipped for a moment, drawn to the generous cleavage now just inches away from his face.

"I'm still surprised…" he murmured with a half-smile, "by the size of your breasts. They're... truly incredible."

Ji Shuang blushed faintly and replied, glancing to the side "Don't stare like that. I'm honestly a little insecure about them. They're kind of… a hassle."

Zhao Tian blinked "Insecure? Why? They're splendid. Beautiful, even."

Her blush deepened, but a gentle smile tugged at her lips as she leaned in "Well... they attract too much attention, so I always have to hide them. Clothes don't always fit right. And training with them… isn't always comfortable."

He chuckled softly and brushed a few strands of hair away from her face "That just makes you even more amazing, honestly."

For a quiet moment, the two sat there... locked in a warm, intimate embrace.

Then, Ji Shuang let out a faint sigh and pulled back just a little, her expression shifting into something more serious.

"Well, putting that aside… let's talk about the situation with Lian."

Zhao Tian's expression sobered immediately as the earlier playfulness faded from his eyes.

"Yeah," he nodded, tightening his hold on her waist just slightly. "It's not good. And we might not have much time."

"First I want to know about this Qorrathi race. Such a race really exist?"

Hearing this, Ji Shuang slowly nodded her head "Hmm… It's true. The Qorrathi exist in the Astral Realm," she said, brushing a lock of hair behind her ear.

"They're an ancient warrior race... ruthless, honorable, and bound by a strange divine clause. It's said the heavens themselves granted them a boon: only another Qorrathi can end their life. No other race can kill them."

"So what that woman said might be true... if it's a regular Paragon, like Infernal or Eternal... we can kill them."

"But a Paragon who inherited the trait of the Qorrathi race can only be killed by another Paragon."

"That explains why she has been sealing the Paragon for centuries. Her cultivation isn't the issue... it's the divine clause that's stopping her."

She looked into his eyes "And now... only the Honoured One can kill the Paragon as he exists out of the Heaven's restrictions."

With a thoughful nod, he replied "That's what I am struggling to decide..."

"I don't know how powerful the Paragon really is. If I misjudge… and can't defeat it…"

"And even if we escape with Rui Lian, the whole star would be annihilated."

Ji Shuang let out a giggle "You are worrying about a star getting destroyed when you yourself annihilated a whole star once..."

Hearing this, he just smiled dryly "That... was different."

She leaned in and gently cupped his cheek, her thumb brushing against his skin "I think... the best option would be for you to fight the Paragon."

"If you confront it, there's a chance. No one else can face this burden."

"…And what if I lose?" he asked.

She smiled gently and pressed a kiss to his forehead "Then die trying… and I'll be there to drag you back to life."

Upon hearing this, he sighed in his heart "Now I will have to explain about my physique to that woman and the Master too."

...

"Haa…"

Walking slowly down the stone-paved path, a soft sigh escaped Yan Zijin's lips.

The setting sun cast golden shadows along the courtyard walls, but her heart was heavy.

"Where did he go…? It's been two days since he disappeared without a word."

Her face was clouded with concern as she slowly made her way back to her quarters.

However, sensing his presence in his quarters, she was surprised "Is he back?"

She hurriedly rushed to his quarters and opened the door "Tian!"

Zhao Tian, who was sitting on the bed, raised his head with a smile "Master."

Huh? yen Zijin was dumbfounded to see Ji Shuang sitting beside Zhao Tian on the bed "Sect master, what are you doing here? How did you..."

Keeping her smile, Ji Shuang replied "When I lost my connection with your ark, I quickly rushed here to check if you both are safe."

Yan Zijin remembered her old ark getting destroyed during the rupture.

Ji Shuang continued "And when I reached here, I saw Tian here... and he helped me get a pass to enter the star."

Hearing this, Yan Zijin nodded slowly "I see... Good thing you came here, Sect Master because the situation here is worse than I expected."

Ji Shuang glanced at Zhao Tian and replied "Tian already filled me in on the things happening in this star and about Rui Lian."

"I want to... talk to that woman."
