Just eat it, and she’ll be saved.
The weapon once used against the Evil Dragon was now the best way to save her.
By converting divine power into the Dark Filth’s magic power, Leia’s soul could be stabilized, sparing her any more suffering.
The wedding venue remained utterly silent.
Leia said nothing, clutching Xuefei’s warm hand and the Endless Treasure as if frozen in place—like someone had hit pause on a video.
“Leia?”
Was this gift really too cheap after all?
The Endless Treasure had originally been hers anyway, so giving it back to Leia as a present felt pretty half-hearted, didn’t it?
Was she mad at me…
Of course she was.
The Evil Dragon placed great value on treasures. If she didn’t receive something of equal worth in return, getting angry was inevitable. Xuefei’s gift was just an ancient gold ring. She’d decorated it a bit with a scale shed from her own tail to make it seem more valuable… and then there was the Endless Treasure, which had belonged to Leia to begin with. No matter how you sliced it, neither came close to the worth of a diamond ring made from tears.
Xuefei suddenly felt a pang of regret.
She should have prepared something far more expensive! This was a wedding, after all. Was it really okay to be so careless?
Or was the issue really just “eating it”?
Dragons were used to swallowing gems for sustenance, but maybe Leia didn’t like gulping down a hard gemstone in front of a crowd.
Leia’s expression twitched slightly. No one knew what she was thinking. She hadn’t said a word since it started.
No…
From her long time knowing Leia, Xuefei could tell she was holding back some kind of emotion.
In other words, it was about time for her to get her walking papers.
Leia lifted Xuefei up, set her down gently on the ground, and then the two of them embraced. Cheers erupted from the crowd all around them:
“Wishing you eternal happiness!”
“Yay!”
“A hundred years of harmony—may you soon bear a precious daughter!”
But the moment only made Xuefei more mortified.
What if Leia was angry?
She still hadn’t spoken to me. What on earth had happened?
If heaven gave her a do-over, she’d have prepared a proper gift for Leia ages ago. Hmm, and all those little trinkets she’d collected from around the world—they’d definitely come in handy right now.
I’m such a failure!!
But just then, amid the roaring cheers, Leia didn’t let go of Xuefei’s body. In a low voice by her ear, she murmured:
“Your wish… it can come true. And all it took was this?”
“Ah… yeah!”
“So, it doesn’t matter what I ask for next, right, Xuefei?”
“Of course not!” Xuefei nodded frantically, terrified that Leia might still be mad at her.
“Feed me.”
“Huh… feed you?”
Xuefei’s face flushed bright red in an instant. Her head turned into a cute little steam engine, her gaze darting everywhere.
The audience had no idea about the feeding part—or the Endless Treasure, or the “wish.”
To them, this was just a perfectly normal wedding kiss, the pinnacle of affection between the couple, one intimate act among many. Who could have guessed it was built on the foundation of such an embarrassing “feeding”?
But at this point, Xuefei had no reason to refuse.
What if she refused and made Leia even angrier? This was her chance to make up for her mistake!
The green gem returned to Xuefei’s hand. With the speed of lightning, she popped it into her mouth. Then, the instant Leia loosened her grip on her waist, she pressed her lips tightly against those alluring cherry lips on that seductive face…
“Mmm… mm…”
“Mm…”
At that moment, the cheers from below grew even louder.
Everyone thought it was a passionate kiss, but no one noticed the vivid blush blooming across both their faces.
Andrea was cheering right along with them.
She was practically flapping her wings to take flight, but out of politeness, Andrea reined in her excitement.
“Ehehe, Leia and Xuefei really are the most loving couple!”
“Right, right!” Suddenly, a maid standing beside Andrea nodded in enthusiastic agreement.
“Look how intensely they’re kissing. Waa, it’s like they’re both demanding everything from each other—it’s so exciting!”
“I wish I could have a love like theirs~”
The blessings continued from below, but Xuefei was suffering in silence.
I’m gonna suffocate!
When she tried to pass the green gem into Leia’s mouth, it was like the other girl’s lips had some kind of shield up. In reality, it was the counterforce pushing the Endless Treasure back toward her.
Even more unbelievable, Leia wasn’t fully accepting it—she was turning the tables and launching an assault on Xuefei!
“Wah, mm, Leia… what are you…”
“Hee hee~”
Their brief parting did nothing to change the outcome. Leia leaned in and kissed her again. In that moment, Xuefei felt as if the Endless Treasure—along with her very soul—was being utterly drained from her. In the blink of an eye, their playful back-and-forth turned into a one-sided rout. Leia wrapped her arms around Xuefei’s limp waist. With faint, almost imperceptible gulps, the Endless Treasure—together with Xuefei’s (meow meow~)—slid down her throat, becoming an inseparable part of Leia’s body.
“Ahh, wah~”
Like a prince catching a falling princess, Xuefei collapsed fully into Leia’s arms. For a fleeting second, she recalled the tale of the princess and the dwarfs—but in this version, the poisoned apple had been replaced by something far more peculiar.
Just then, the cheers from the crowd swelled to a fever pitch, as if they had all witnessed a breathtaking stage performance.
“Bad Leia… so bad…”
Xuefei muttered under her breath.
After pinning her down for a forceful kiss that lasted several minutes, it was finally time for the formal dinner. The banquet table groaned under the weight of priceless delicacies.
As if in compensation, Leia claimed the seat at the center of the feast. Amid a barrage of blessings and dances from the throng of guests, she never once loosened her hold on the poor Little Xuefei she had thoroughly exhausted.
Yet the girl slumped limply in her embrace wasn’t scheming ways to break free. No, Xuefei was gripped by even greater worry.
Ever since the wedding rings had been exchanged, Leia hadn’t spoken a single word to her. After devouring the Endless Treasure, she had grown even more silent, as though Xuefei meant nothing to her at all. And yet, the hand that ceaselessly teased her most sensitive spots made it abundantly clear: Leia’s hunger for her had not abated in the slightest.
Was she nursing some grudge in her heart, biding her time to unleash it all later that night?
“Leia… are you… mad at me?”
Xuefei ventured timidly.
Leia merely smiled. Every now and then, her gaze would flicker toward Xuefei, only to dart away again the instant their eyes met—as if scorched by flame.
Had she already grown to hate her?
Was this embrace nothing more than a performance for the crowd?
The banquet soon drew to a close. Xuefei had eaten her fill, but her thoughts remained fixated on Leia.
That night, after her bath, she slipped into her thin nightgown and made her way to the vast double bed as usual. The sight of the Dragon Girl—clad in next to nothing, practically naked—finally brought clarity to the doubts that had plagued her mind for so long.
Xuefei watched warily as Leia tossed her black stockings aside. The fresh, clean scent of her bath mingled with her natural fragrance, wafting straight into Xuefei’s nostrils from her flawless, gleaming skin.
“Xuefei, come here.”
“Ah, o-okay…”
But just as Xuefei reached for the sash at her waist to slip off her white stockings, an irresistible force sent the world spinning. She found herself pinned to the bed, helpless to resist.
Leia’s face was alight with a desire more intense than ever before—like a faucet burst wide open, spilling forth without restraint.
Before Xuefei could even process what was happening, Leia’s tongue brushed against the tender hollow of her collarbone.
Her whisper was sweet and velvety, intoxicating as the strongest fruit wine:
“Xuefei, you have no idea how deeply you underestimated the Evil Dragon’s obsession… mm…”
“Do you even realize what happens when you save an Evil Dragon who was already in love with you?”
“You were far too arrogant, Xuefei…”
Yes, she had been holding back all this time.
Ever since Xuefei had chosen to save her. Ever since she had found a way to ease the agony that had tormented her. Even the shame of her hidden secrets had twisted into something singular and overwhelming.
An incurable love for Xuefei.
Leia’s hands roamed over Xuefei’s trembling body.
“Are you ready to be at my mercy for the next few days? Mm… your wedding gown is still on… but that won’t get in the way. Let’s begin.”
