Chapter 359 – Succubus Anda
Victor, as usual, didn't comment out loud. He simply listened to the exchanges and sighed inwardly. He had entered the Mystic Realm hoping to gather rare alchemy ingredients, but somehow, he had ended up entangled in situations that felt increasingly like a world-ending disaster.
After their long detour around the island, filled with conversation and sightseeing, the group finally arrived at the washed-up mansion.
"Everything else on this island is in ruins except for this mansion. Not surprising, but still… this prince is impressed it managed to stay intact after all these years." Dastan leaped gracefully from the cloud as he spoke, his eyes scanning the structure.
The others followed, one by one, landing softly on the sandy ground and leaving only the mistletoe still resting on the floating celestial cloud.
Victor's gaze lingered on the mansion. He let out a quiet sigh of relief. Finally, a proper building. It had been over a year since he last rested under a real roof. Though he had survived on his own for so long, he was, at his core, an indoor person. The thought of sleeping inside again brought an unexpected sense of comfort.
"Hahaha! Does this mansion have enough rooms for all of us, Anda?" Leyvi asked with his usual easy grin.
"Of course it does," Anda replied, smiling. "Look at how big it is. Come on, I'll show everyone the available rooms."
"Kekeke. Well then, everyone, I will be taking my leave," Lapin announced, his voice carrying a hint of cheer as always.
"Oh? You're leaving already?" Leyvi asked, a little surprised.
"I want to bring Miss Misty out to see the world, to fulfill her long-time wish."
"Oh my… hihihi… Mister Lapin, you're so kind. Thank you very much. I've waited for this moment for so long." Misty's voice carried both excitement and gratitude, her leaves rustling gently on the cloud.
"Kekeke! Of course! I'm a gentlemanly rabbit, after all," Lapin replied proudly.
"So how do we contact you later?" Leyvi asked.
"Don't worry. My cloud is capable of long-distance communication. If you need me, Human Anda and two others on the island already have celestial clouds you can borrow," Lapin explained. Then he paused briefly as if reconsidering. "Hmm… actually, that might be inconvenient. Alright, I'll make a few more right now and send them over. They should arrive in about a week. That way, you'll also have an easier time flying around."
High above, on his sky island, Lapin immediately began creating new celestial clouds, pouring a small fraction of his bloodline power into the process.
Hearing this, Tantan's eyes sparkled with excitement. She shot her little paw into the air eagerly. "Senior Lapin! Please give me one too! This weak squirrel wants a celestial cloud so badly! Please, please!" she begged, her fluffy tail flicking wildly as if to emphasize her desperation.
"Kekeke. Squirrel Tantan, don't worry. I've already included you. I could sense your desire for my cloud from the very beginning," Lapin said, his voice full of amusement. "But let me remind you, while the celestial cloud is powerful, it's not indestructible. Certain attacks could destroy it, so be careful. And whether you can fly it or not will depend on you."
Tantan's ears perked up as she tilted her head curiously.
Lapin continued, "Without my direct control, anyone using the cloud must supply their own energy. Cultivators can easily channel Qi into it, but for demonic beasts, it's a little trickier. Unless you've learned how to control and channel your essence energy properly, flying it on your own will be impossible. If you want that freedom, you'll have to train yourself, little squirrel."
"Thank you, Senior Lapin! Thank you!" Tantan said gratefully, her tail flicking back and forth with excitement.
"Alright then, we're off. You all enjoy your reunion. Kekeke."
"We will," Anda replied with a mischievous smile that made Lapin chuckle as his cloud began ascending.
The group watched as the celestial cloud rose higher and higher, eventually disappearing into the sky.
"Okay, let's go in," Anda said, leading them toward the mansion.
Once inside, the others looked around in surprise. Despite its worn exterior, the interior felt like a proper mansion—clean, tidy, and filled with tasteful decorations. Clearly, the ladies had done an impressive job restoring and maintaining it during their stay.
Victor didn't say a word. The moment Anda pointed him to an empty room, he disappeared inside and locked the door. Finally, after over a year of constant survival in the Mystic Realm, he could rest properly. For him, this would be the best sleeping place and comfort he would experience since stepping into this treacherous place.
Crown Prince Dastan also retreated to his assigned room with Tantan following behind. As he lay on the bed staring at the ceiling, his mind drifted. He thought about the people he had met so far—Leyvi, Victor, and Anda. All of them were from the Cloud Continent. Strangely enough, he hadn't seen a single person from the Protogaea Continent since arriving.
Could it be… I'm the only one from Protogaea sent to this Mystic Realm? That can't be right. Surely there were others. Unless… wait. He paused, staring blankly. No. No way. Don't tell me I'm that special? He began entertaining the idea of being uniquely singled out for this place.
A smirk crept across his face at the thought. Hah. I mean… it's only natural. This prince is extraordinary after all.
"Tantan, come here. Your master wants to teach you a useful technique. A smart spirit beast like you will definitely learn it fast."
Meanwhile, in Anda's room, things were heating up in an entirely different way.
After showing Leyvi his room, Anda didn't waste another second. She grabbed his wrist, yanked him into her room, and gave him a little shove onto the bed. Before he could even get a word out, she locked the door and erected a thick sound barrier around the room.
It had been over a year since she last had him. A year of drought. A year where even the holy rod replica failed to quench her thirst. No more waiting. She needed him—now.
Leyvi chuckled, reclining casually on the bed as he watched her, his eyes gleaming with amusement and a touch of desire. "Haha. It seems my lovely panda girl can't hold back any longer?"
Anda's lips curled into a mischievous smile. "Hehe. If you know, then stop talking and get ready to satisfy your thirsty wife. All the catching up can wait until later."
Her fingers moved deftly to untie the strings of her black and white dress. The fabric loosened and slid down her body like water cascading from smooth stones, pooling silently at her feet.
The undergarments that remained left little to the imagination, hugging her voluptuous form in a way that would burn itself into memory. Her breasts, her slender waist, her perfectly shaped hips and thighs—every curve and proportion flawless, a masterpiece sculpted by the heavens themselves. A vision so striking that anyone who saw her would carry the image for a long time.
Of course, the undergarment she wore was one of Nala's masterpieces. She had become a designer with a great reputation for crafting exotic lingerie that emphasized every feminine feature to perfection. Even women who lacked certain assets could rely on her creations to transform into sultry sirens.
Anda's naturally stunning physique, enhanced by Nala's exotic design, left Leyvi utterly mesmerized. The way the fabric hugged her curves—highlighting the swell of her breasts, the dip of her waist, and the fullness of her hips—was nothing short of breathtaking.
Leyvi, despite being a man with multiple wives, found himself momentarily stunned. He knew he should have built immunity to such heavenly sights after all these years, but reality betrayed him. His eyes lingered shamelessly, his mouth faintly ajar as his breath quickened.
It wasn't just the beauty of the scene. He had been apart from Anda for one year and four months. It felt like an eternity. Even though he had endured far longer periods of seclusion during cultivation in the past, nothing compared to this separation. This wasn't simply about missing her face or her form—it was the absence of her touch, her warmth, her presence that gnawed at him.
Anda noticed his reaction immediately. Her lips curved into a mischievous, teasing smile. "Hehe. Look at you. Drooling like a fool over my body. Tell me, husband, have I gotten sexier or something?"
She reached up and delicately removed her hair ornaments, allowing her twin panda ear-shaped buns to unravel into long, silky tresses that cascaded over her shoulders and down her back.
Then, with slow, deliberate steps, she began her approach. Each movement caused delightful ripples across her ample chest and the sensuous sway of her round, full bottom. The soft sound of her feet on the floor paired with the hypnotic motion of her body was enough to send Leyvi's blood surging.
His throat went dry as his eyes followed her every step, his body tensing with growing anticipation.
"Hmm...I don't know if my mind is playing tricks on me, but your body has definitely gotten a lot more charming. Are you sure you're not turning into a real succubus, Anda?" Leyvi said, acting calm.
"Hehe, I can be whatever you want..."
