After Pupu fell asleep, Shang Ke took a dip in the hot spring to wash away his cold and fatigue.
He heard the sound of rippling water close by, and he opened his eyes to see Tylor standing in the hot spring. His powerful body was full of scars of varying sizes. Many of them must have been left behind because he had not dealt with his injuries carefully at the time of injury.
Tylor swam towards Shang Ke and reached for his chest. A few years ago, a long sword had passed through here and taken his life. Now, he was alive and once again had a warm body, strong heartbeat, and bright and clean skin with only a light scar marring it.
Tylor circled his arms around Shang Ke's waist and leaned his head against his shoulder like a child. His face was full of contentment and nostalgia.
"Tell me, Tylor. What happened after we sealed the devil's tree?" Shang Ke asked in a soft voice.
"Mm." Tylor shifted into a more comfortable position and leaned lazily against Shang Ke as he began to describe the three years following his death.
Because of Shang Ke's death, Tylor and Pupu were eroded by the devil tree's qi and became half-devil's without faith. They couldn't continue to live in the city, so they brought Shang Ke's body to this snowy mountain.
They differed from ordinary devil apostles. After they sealed the Devil's Tree, all the devil apostles were set free from its control. As long as they didn't take the initiative to do evil, they would have little impact on others. However, Tylor and Pupu had absorbed the purest devil qi from the Devil's Tree; thus, they unwittingly emitted devil's qi even though they tried to suppress it.
Even Shang Ke couldn't absorb their devil qi; it was up to them to get rid of it. However, it didn't matter if they could never recover. He would be with them forever anyway.
After recalling the past, Tylor suddenly asked, "Shang Ke, can I kiss you?"
Shang Ke looked at him strangely. This man actually had such a gentlemanly side to him? Doesn't he usually go straight for the kiss without hesitation?
As he opened his mouth to speak, Tylor had already kissed him.
Shang Ke thought, '... As expected, one shouldn't make conclusions too quickly.'
Tylor fit his lips carefully against Shang Ke's, and slowly, he rubbed in and deepened the contact. His kiss bore a hint of lust, but more than that, was the longing and adoration hidden within it.
The two people remained in the water for half an hour until they had to come out because they felt dizzy.
They didn't do it to the end. This kind of intimacy was enough for them to remember for a long time.
The next day, Shang Ke happily suggested, "Let's find a place with beautiful scenery to live in seclusion!"
"Alright." Tylor had no objections.
And Pupu was Daddy's most loyal supporter.
The three immediately packed their luggage, arming themselves with bags both large and small. Even Pupu carried a pot on her back. They walked step by step through the deep snow and bid farewell to this land of ice and frost.
Finding a new place to live was not as difficult as Shang Ke expected. Tylor once traveled the continent and was thus very familiar with the environment. After determining the kind of place Shang Ke wanted them to live in, the three of them came upon the Donore Mountain at the border between Dako City and Sina Province.
After investigating several times, Shang Ke finally chose a place close to a body of water as their home. Lush green mountains and a few settlements surrounded it, and the only way to access it other than traversing through a winding mountain path was to cross the river by boat.
