Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 556 Scrubbing your back without using your hands?
In the backyard of Bibi Dong's bedroom, there is an open-air white marble hot spring pool filled with warm steam.

Bathed in the hazy moonlight and illuminated by palace lanterns, it resembled a fairyland.

Upon reaching the poolside, Dai Chengfeng was the first to enter the water, then looked at Bibi Dong with a composed and expectant expression.

Looking into Dai Chengfeng's burning gaze, Bibi Dong parted her red lips slightly, "Traitorous disciple!"

"Isn't it because the teacher is too beautiful?" Dai Chengfeng smiled slightly, his gaze still undisguised.

"Ah!"

Bibi Dong rolled her eyes at Dai Chengfeng, then stopped hesitating...

He turned slightly to the side, his back to Dai Chengfeng, and began to slowly remove his elaborate papal robes.

First, the purple-gold crown symbolizing supreme power was gently removed, and her long, flowing purple hair instantly cascaded down to her waist, adding a touch of languor and charm.

Next came the luxurious purple outer robe, which slid down her smooth shoulders to reveal a form-fitting silk blouse that accentuated her stunning curves.

One by one, the delicate buttons were unbuttoned by slender fingers, each unbutton revealing a layer of mystery.

As the last piece of clothing slipped down her smooth, alabaster skin to her feet, her perfect, divinely inspired back was fully revealed to Dai Chengfeng.

Under the moonlight, her skin was so white it seemed to glow, her shoulders and neck had elegant and smooth lines, her back had distinct grooves that extended to her incredibly slender waist...

Her curves were full and rounded, yet without an ounce of excess fat, and her legs were straight and long.

She didn't turn around completely, but her profile was already the most alluring sight in the world.

"I've seen enough..."

As Bibi Dong spoke, she quickly stepped into the hot spring pool, letting the warm water submerge her collarbone, leaving only her back view and her purple hair floating on the surface of the water.

And that stunningly beautiful profile as she turned around, with a hint of shyness and reproach.

"I haven't seen enough, the teacher is so beautiful..."

As Dai Chengfeng praised her, Bibi Dong smiled.

After a while, Dai Chengfeng took a deep breath, suppressed the agitation in his heart, and slowly walked behind Bibi Dong.

"Teacher, let me rub your back."

Dai Chengfeng picked up a soft bath towel prepared by the pool, his voice low and hoarse.

Bibi Dong gave a soft "hmm" and did not refuse.

She leaned forward slightly, exposing her smooth back completely to him.

Dai Chengfeng dampened a bath towel with warm water and gently wiped the jade-like back.

The occasional brush of her fingertips against Bibi Dong's delicate skin sent a shiver down her spine.

“Teacher,” Dai Chengfeng said softly as he wiped his face, his voice filled with sincere longing, “I missed you terribly when we were in the Star Dou Great Forest.”

"Every time I encounter a troublesome soul beast, or when it's late at night and all is quiet, your image is all I can think of."

The rising steam from the hot spring blurred Bibi Dong's vision and softened her defenses.

Hearing her disciple's undisguised confession of love behind her, she was filled with emotion and an indescribable sense of pride.

This exceptionally talented and insightful disciple, this man who evoked complex emotions in her, ultimately held her dear in his heart.

She silently replied in her heart, "Actually... I often think of you too."

But given her personality and status, she would never say those words aloud. However, the slight upturn of her lips and her more relaxed, leaning-back posture revealed her true feelings.

After an unknown amount of time, Dai Chengfeng stopped what he was doing, put the towel aside, and said in a slightly teasing tone:
"Teacher, the back is wiped clean."

Bibi Dong responded softly, still leaning lazily against the pool, enjoying the soothing hot spring and the warmth she had just experienced.

However, Dai Chengfeng's next words made her body stiffen slightly.

“Well then,” Dai Chengfeng’s voice was close to her ear, hot with breath, “now it’s my turn to help you, teacher.” Hearing this, Bibi Dong instinctively turned around, reaching for a towel, and replied:
"it is good……"

But before she could finish speaking, Dai Chengfeng grabbed her wrist, stopping her.

A mischievous and burning light gleamed in his eyes. He shook his head and chuckled softly:
"Teacher, what I want... isn't with both hands!"

"Without using your hands?"

Bibi Dong was taken aback at first, and looked at him with some confusion.

But when she met Dai Chengfeng's aggressive and suggestive gaze, she instantly understood.

A striking blush quickly spread from her cheeks to her ears, and even to her fair neck and collarbone submerged in the water.

She glared at Dai Chengfeng, her eyes full of charm, a mixture of reproach and unspoken shyness, which she finally managed to squeeze out between her teeth:

"Rebel!"

"You...don't even think about it!"

She turned her head away, trying to hide her embarrassment and anger with a cold, hard tone, but her flushed cheeks and slightly trembling voice betrayed her.

Seeing Bibi Dong's rare display of embarrassment, Dai Chengfeng's heart burned even hotter.

He knew his teacher's pride and reserve, and that forcing him would likely backfire.

But instead of letting go, he moved even closer, using the force of the water to his advantage, almost encircling her from behind. His chin rested gently on her smooth shoulder, and he whispered in a tone filled with grievance and deep longing:
"Teacher...do you know how I spent those days in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

His voice lowered, no longer mocking, but purely a 'confession'.

“Every day we face ferocious soul beasts, damp and cold jungles, and dangers that are everywhere.”

"Several times, I almost didn't make it back..."

"Whenever I'm exhausted or injured and in pain, all I can think about is my teacher."

"Thinking of my teacher's face, thinking of my teacher's voice, thinking... how wonderful it would be if I could go back to my teacher's side."

"For three months and seven days, I counted down the days every single day."

Dai Chengfeng buried his face in her neck, in her faintly fragrant purple hair, took a deep breath, and spoke with a hint of vulnerability and attachment in his voice.

"I've finally come back, teacher... are you really so heartless that you won't even grant me this little wish?"

His words struck Bibi Dong's heart, one by one.

She could feel the warmth emanating from the disciple behind her, and the genuine, deep longing in his words.

She remembered the worry she felt when he left, the heart palpitation she felt upon learning that he had encountered a powerful soul beast deep in the forest, and the occasional sense of loneliness she felt in the empty Papal Palace.

He was indeed gone for a long time and experienced danger.

And he himself...

Feeling the stiffness in the body in his arms gradually ease, and even lean slightly back towards him, Dai Chengfeng knew that his words had worked.

He stopped urging her, and simply held her quietly, waiting for her response.

The surface of the hot spring water rippled gently, reflecting the hazy moonlight and palace lanterns, as well as the complex expression of struggle and shyness on Bibi Dong's exquisite profile.

After a long while, a barely audible sigh escaped from her red lips.

"...Only this once."

Her voice was barely audible, filled with shyness, and almost drowned out by the sound of the water.

Bibi Dong slightly raised her hands, revealing her pair of...

then……
