Chapter 120: Aegis of the Void
"Yes," she replied without a second thought.
This answer surprised him as he did not expect to be correct. But then he thought about his own situation and didn't think she was lying.
"But how did that happen?" he asked as he wrapped his arms around her waist and brought her closer.
This caused his face to be sandwiched between her H-cup breasts, but he didn't mind this; instead, he focused on her response.
Bai Lingyun saw this and smiled dotingly as she moved one of her hands to the top of his head and started playing with his hair. Then she began explaining.
"This happened during the same time you had your accident. You see, at that time, I was about to enter your room to show you something you had left behind in that cave.
It was under a pile of stones that should have fallen when we attacked the protection formation, but we didn't check the whole place thoroughly because we were in a hurry.
But when I was about to leave, I caught a glimpse of something underneath the rock, which is where I found the item.
After finding it, I searched the whole place again to see if I had missed anything before returning to your room to show you the item."
Then she took out a bracelet from her storage ring and showed it to him.
The bracelet was a sleek, dark band with runes carved into it, glowing faintly with a silvery-blue hue.
When he saw this, he was stunned. He didn't expect this to be the reason, but he didn't think too much and instead used the status bar to find out more information about this bracelet.
Aegis of the Void (Chaos)
Description: The Aegis of the Void is an ancient, intricately crafted bracelet forged from a rare and unknown material.
Abilities:
Absolute Shielding: When activated, the Aegis of the Void generates a barrier that can protect the wearer from any form of attack—physical, magical, spiritual, or even conceptual. The shield adapts to the nature of the threat, ensuring maximum defense.
Void Reflection: The bracelet can absorb and store a portion of the energy from attacks it defends against, allowing the wearer to reflect that energy back at their opponent with devastating force.
Dimensional Barrier: The bracelet can create a spatial distortion around the wearer, displacing attacks into a pocket dimension. This ability can be used to temporarily remove the wearer from the battlefield, allowing them to regroup or counterattack from an unexpected angle.
Auto-Activation: In cases of sudden danger, the bracelet can automatically activate its shielding abilities, even without the wearer's conscious command. This makes it invaluable in life-threatening situations or ambushes.
Void Convergence: The Aegis of the Void can converge void energy to strengthen the shield, making it nearly indestructible for a limited time. However, this ability uses up a lot of the stored energy, which leads to it only being able to be used once a year.
Seeing the abilities, Xu Qianghua finally figured out how she could cross the space-time storm without any other help.
Although he was glad that he had made a mistake and left the bracelet that saved Bai Lingyun's life from the space-time storm, at the same time, if he hadn't done it, she wouldn't have had to suffer the fate of being reborn.
"But Sister Lingyun, why didn't you tell me about this before?" he asked with a confused look.
"I wanted to, but the timing wasn't right with the whole world changing and whatnot, so I didn't bother as I knew you would blame yourself and lose focus," she said, and she was right.
If she had told him earlier, he would have always had this in the back of his mind, nagging at him, and then he would go over the top to make sure everything was safe.
"At first, I didn't want to tell you about this until our situation had stabilized and we had solid roots so that you wouldn't have a huge reaction where you'd go overboard with everything," she said with a helpless sigh.
This caused him to smile awkwardly as he thought, 'Am I that easy to read?'
And to this, Bai Lingyun wanted to retort, "Yes," but she held back because he still didn't know the whole truth.
She couldn't tell him that she never went back in time as she was powerful enough to play with time itself, and it couldn't control her.
The Aegis of the Void was part of the set in that cave but was removed right before Xu Qianghua and his group came in.
It was because the item looked more like a female accessory at that time, and they wanted to change it into something that Xu Qianghua would like.
But before they could put it back, Xu Qianghua and his group entered the cave, so they had to leave the Aegis of the Void out of the set.
Bai Lingyun wanted to give this to him before but never got a chance, but now she can give it to him without thinking of other excuses.
"So, at what time did you return?" he asked.
"A month and a half before the merge," she said.
'So it was half a month before I was reborn,' he thought.
"I see, but Sister Lingyun, it's not good to hide stuff like this from me," he said as he slapped her juicy ass.
"Mmnn."
She didn't respond back; instead, she just rubbed her body against his in retaliation, which caused him to use both of his hands to knead her ass. Then she spoke.
"It won't happen again!" she let out a sensuous sigh as she felt her ass being squeezed when she said that.
"If anything like this happens in the future, I'll just ignore you and only fuck Bai Xueyan," he said.
This caused Bai Lingyun to want to protest and bite her son-in-law's shoulder, but before she could do so, Xu Qianghua started spanking her harder and with both hands at that time.
"Mmmph!"
She yelped while muttering, "You are a jerk!"
"What did you say?" he asked as he spanked her once again.
"Mmmph!" she yelped again, but this time, she didn't say anything as she didn't want to be spanked again.
Seeing this, Xu Qianghua also stopped spanking her, but he didn't stop playing with her ass as he closed his eyes and leaned forward, resting his head on her boobs.
This caused Bai Lingyun to show a doting smile. Then she played with his hair again.
Both of them stayed silent for quite some time.
Then he asked, "Do you regret coming to find me at that time?"
"Never. Although it was a surprise for me, as long as I can be with you, I'm fine with this. And instead, I think this was a good thing for me," she continued.
"As you know, in our last lives, we could not meet until the game merged, and even then, I was worried about you until I saw you with my own eyes.
But in this life, I was able to meet you earlier than the merge, which in my book is a good deal."
After she finished, she resumed playing with his hair while Xu Qianghua started to think about what she had said.
'She is right. Even if this is something unexpected, it's not like this is a bad thing because, in this way, I was able to reunite with her and Bai Xueyan before the merge,' he thought as his mood calmed down.
This caught the attention of Bai Lingyun, who showed a sly smile as she rubbed her ass against his dick which made it even more hard.
Xu Qianghua had to take a deep breath as he felt his dick teased.
After a few minutes of teasing, Bai Lingyun got up and bent down with her face close to his thighs.
She then snapped her fingers, which caused his pants and his underwear to disappear, but all of her attention was on his fully erect dick.
"Now," She said as she looked up and stared straight into Xu Qianghua's eyes. "Let's do what we always wanted to do," Then she came close to his dick and kissed the tip of it.
While feeling Bai Lingyun sucking on his dick, Xu Qianghua felt an unbelievable ecstasy enveloping him like waves upon waves that refused to stop, not to mention her tight lips massaging his manhood and teasing the sensitive areas that were filled by its length.
He then placed one of his hands on top of her head and played with her hair while watching her suck his dick.
