Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Su Qin Arrived

Inside Li Jian’s residence, the lamp light remained steady.

Su Qin stood near the bed with her arms crossed under her full, large chest, her expression stiff and reluctant.

"Well?" she asked in a low voice. "...Do you need it or not?"

Li Jian turned from the door and looked at her, the smile still on his face.

"I do."

Su Qin exhaled softly.

Under the request, the last bit of outward resistance faded into that familiar sense of acceptance.

She reached up, loosened the sash of her outer robes, and let the fabric slip open along her shoulders.

"Then don’t waste time."

Su Qin bit her lip as her fingers moved to the sash at her waist.

The outer robes loosened slightly, slipping just enough to reveal the upper curve of her full, pale breasts and the soft line of her collarbone.

Her expression remained reluctant, yet her hands continued with steady acceptance under the request.

Before she could pull the sash completely free, Li Jian stepped forward and stopped her.

His arms wrapped around her from behind.

Su Qin’s body stiffened at once.

"You— what are you doing?!"

Li Jian rested his chin lightly near her shoulder and quietly inhaled.

A faint fragrance lingered around her, clean and delicate, with a subtle warmth that reminded him of fresh flowers after rain.

It was different from the scent of ordinary perfume.

It carried the faint trace of her spiritual energy, making it surprisingly soothing.

Through the half-loosened robes, the soft, heavy press of her breasts against his forearms was impossible to ignore.

Her back was warm, and the faint scent of her body filled his nose as he held her in place.

For a moment, Li Jian simply stood there, holding her slender waist and enjoying the warmth and soft body of this woman.

"No need to rush," he said calmly. "Since we have a full month... there’s no reason to treat this like a transaction that needs to be finished immediately."

Su Qin’s ears turned red.

She tried to shift, but his arms remained firm around her waist, keeping her back pressed against his chest.

"This is dual cultivation, not some couple nonsense," she muttered coldly. "Let go."

Li Jian did not let go.

Instead, his hands slowly moved upward along her stomach, stopping just beneath the heavy underside of her breasts.

He could feel their weight even without fully grabbing them yet, soft and full against the edge of his fingers.

"Senior Sister Su," he said near her ear, "since you’re already my dual cultivation partner for the month... getting a little familiar first is only natural."

Su Qin’s body tensed again, but the system’s request left her without a firm reason to shove him away.

Her lips pressed together tightly as she stood there in his arms, half-undressed, heart beating faster than she wanted to admit.

Li Jian’s hands finally rose and cupped her breasts from below through the loosened robes.

The soft, heavy flesh filled his palms at once.

Even through the thin inner fabric, their weight and heat were obvious.

He squeezed slowly, feeling the pale mounds change shape under his fingers, overflowing slightly before bouncing back.

Su Qin’s body stiffened in his arms.

"You...! A-Ah~"

A muffled sound escaped her throat as his thumbs brushed across the stiffened peaks.

Her back pressed against his chest, and every time he kneaded those full breasts, a faint tremor ran through her waist.

Li Jian lowered his head near her ear, still openly molding the soft pair in his hands.

"Senior Sister Su’s body is as good as I remembered."

Su Qin’s cheeks were flushed.

Her outer robes had slipped further down her shoulders, revealing more of her pale cleavage and the upper curves of those heavy breasts.

She glared at him, breathing a little unevenly.

Then, without warning, a cold pressure erupted from her body.

BOOM!

It was not murderous, but it was heavy... the unmistakable aura of a cultivator at the peak of Qi Refinement.

The air in the small stone house seemed to tighten for a moment.

Even with the system’s request pressing on her mind, her cultivation and pride were still intact.

Li Jian’s smile paused slightly.

Su Qin looked at him with cold eyes, her voice low and sharp.

"Don’t get carried away."

The pressure around her did not fade as she continued,

"I agreed to dual cultivate with you for a month. That does not mean you can treat me however you want. If you cross the line... even with this arrangement, I will make you regret it."

Her peak Qi Refinement aura pressed faintly against Li Jian’s 3rd Stage body, a clear reminder of the gap between them.

Flush still colored her cheeks, and her half-slipped robes still exposed the soft upper curves of her breasts, but the warning in her eyes was real.

Li Jian met her gaze for a moment, then slowly nodded.

"I understand."

Seeing this, Su Qin sneered coldly in her heart.

’So he finally knows his place.’

Even with the dual cultivation arrangement, he was still only a 3rd Stage outer disciple.

A few words of warning from her peak Qi Refinement aura had been enough to make him restrain himself.

That was how it should be.

But the next moment, her expression froze.

Li Jian casually reached out and fully pulled her sash free.

The outer robes slid down her arms and pooled at her feet, leaving her in only a thin purple inner garment that clung tightly to her voluptuous figure.

The outline of her breasts beads was faintly visible through the fabric, and her full hips and soft, flawlessa pale skin on her thighs were even more eye-catching under the lamplight.

"You—!"

Before she could react further, Li Jian’s hands were already on her again.

One palm slid up and cupped her full breast through the thin cloth, openly squeezing the soft, heavy flesh, while the other hand rested on her waist and pulled her slightly closer.

His fingers sank into the pale mound, molding it without any of the restraint she thought he had just agreed to.

Su Qin’s face turned cold at once as Peak Qi Refinement pressure began rising around her body again.

Her eyes sharpened, and she was just about to teach this bastard a proper lesson—

But then,

Li Jian spoke calmly, still groping her breast without stopping.

"Senior Sister Su. What if I told you I might have a way to help you break through to Foundation Establishment faster?"

The rising pressure around Su Qin paused.

Her eyes narrowed as she stared at him, the anger on her face mixed with sudden caution.

"...What did you say?"
