Defying the Fate of Beheading-Chapter 578 - 314 Can You Pity Me a Little

When Olivia finally came back to her senses, it was too late for regrets.

The little swan hiding under the blanket looked at the marks left on her body, covering her face and saying:

"What did I even do?"

"You didn't do anything, it was me who did something." Louis wiped Olivia's sweat-drenched forehead, looking at her somewhat pitiable appearance, and instead of continuing to mock, he said, "You've grown stronger, Olivia."

Olivia's eyes seemed vacant, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Although she felt unbearably shy, a certain fear still arose in her heart.

So some things really could wear a person out!

Was this how Louis treated Sister Wang usually?

Sure enough, she should just knock him down!

"What are you staring at, I've already let you go."

Louis, who extended a hand to pull up the little swan, looked at her slightly changing face and said, "Do you understand now why I say I love Beatrice very much?"

Olivia looked at her glistening thighs, unable to speak for a long time, and finally turned her head, not looking at Louis anymore.

She couldn't remember what had happened, only feeling her mind continuously blank, while the source of magic power within her kept swelling, her whole body like a power furnace, spinning ceaselessly, yet wanting to slow down for a moment.

She only remembered being helplessly able to create one time clone after another to help fend off Louis's onslaught.

But when the time clones couldn't withstand it and returned to her body, the situation which looked like it was improving suddenly worsened again.

"Could you, could you be a bit more gentle with me?" she said weakly.

Seeing her like this, Louis also felt a bit distressed: "Sorry... This is the first time this has happened, I couldn't control it."

The little swan tried hard to wipe away the marks on her body, but no matter how she wiped, they wouldn't come off completely.

In the end, it was Louis who, carrying her without strength, cleaned her up a bit.

The bed was no longer suitable for sleeping in, but cleaning the sheets was something the maids of the Luokeshi Imperial Palace were supposed to do. Yet both were worried that the maids couldn't keep quiet, so in the end, the little swan's understanding of magic was sufficient, and she directly used magic to clean it.

Louis followed suit, instantly learning the entire set of cleaning magic, earning a roll of the eyes from Olivia.

This guy had always learned martial skills absurdly quickly, and magic could at least slow him down a bit.

After all, before he became a Jade Phoenix Mage, he didn't even have the qualifications to learn magic.

But now he's evolved into someone who learns and uses instantly.

Louis glanced at her, noticing her deep in thought, and snorted softly, saying:

"Is it strange? Next time, I can't let you do the cleaning again."

The little swan's face reddened, and she didn't dare speak.

She muttered, "This leveling speed is quite evident..."

After the previous closed cultivation ended and she absorbed the power of the previous Jade Phoenix Mage, her professional level broke through to LV14.

Building a bit after that, and after battling through the night, she quietly reached LV15.

This made her truly believe what Louis said: such things were meant to help her quickly gain sufficient combat power.

But this method was just too embarrassing for her, and she didn't want to talk to Louis anymore.

Louis lingered in the room until right before he had to go out before he prepared to leave.

Although the little swan had matured considerably after getting back a lot of her memories, her overall thinking was still quite childlike. Since it hadn't been long since they were involved, leaving right away could very likely give the little swan a sense of defeat.

This is a time when a girl's mindset is the most unstable.

She couldn't see the direction for future development clearly, nor could she understand the other half's attitude clearly, like a startled bird, tense every day.

Not to mention, with the abnormal relationship between the two, they weren't even boyfriend and girlfriend. Under such circumstances, if he didn't find a way to keep her around, the girl might look for an opportunity to sneak away and never return.

Everyone understands that a broken mirror is hard to restore; the emphasis is not on being wrong but on having passed.

So even if he risked possibly being discovered in the morning, he still wanted to stay with her for a little longer.

Once the little swan fell into a deep sleep, he gently pushed her hair behind her ear, revealing her somewhat childlike face, kissed her forehead, and quietly said:

"Maybe I'm really a greedy person, whether that's Beatrice or you falling into my arms, I won't let either of you leave."

After saying this, he got up and left.

After he left, the only sound in the room was the even rhythm of the little swan's breathing.

After a long while, a mosquito-like murmur sounded: "Fool."

...

On the other side, Louis, having cleaned his body, put on his combat attire.

Looking at himself, neat and tidy in the mirror, he revealed a subtle smile.

"This is the first time I have successfully wielded the power of the Crown of Spiritual Desire."

Though the Crown of Spiritual Desire had long said he could swiftly grow using this method, theoretically, his stamina could also support long-term cultivation, the reality was that this kind of strength increase wasn't that great.

Or perhaps... Beatrice's body couldn't withstand his harm.

He always felt if he continued to let this be, his first wife would become fearful.

If it fell to such a level, how would their married life go on?

But the little swan solved his biggest problem.

Though using time clones was basically cheating, and each time clone couldn't last as long as Beatrice, there were so many clones!

When time isn't enough, numbers make up for it.

It's just a pity for the little swan; if it were her true body, she would also be able to receive the shared blessing of the Chaste Desire, enabling her to endure for a long time.
