The Supreme God

"By the way, how's everything going with the Spiritual River?"

the woman clad in purple curiously asked.

"It's still very calm.

However, I still can't get close to it and I'm stuck looking at it from afar.

Seems like I have to become the chief first and go through the baptism in the ancestral temple before I get the qualifications to enter the Spiritual River,"

sighed the young man.

"Everyone says that only the chief of the spiritual race can enter the river, no one else is allowed.

Seems like it's true,"

she murmured softly.

"Yes.

What's most annoying is that we can't just break into it by force.

Otherwise, it'll self-destruct and everything in it will vanish as well,"

the man groaned.

"Alas, I feel terribly guilty for causing you so much trouble. I'm just a humble woman, after all. Not once did I expect that my spiritual soul would be hurt so badly that I'd need the spiritual lotus to heal me. However, it only exists in the Spiritual River.

You wouldn't have to try so hard to fight in order to be the chief otherwise.

We could have left together and lived a simple but happy life. That's the happiest ending I can imagine."

Unspeakable sadness and melancholy darkened the woman's voice.

"Don't worry, Ariana. I'll do anything to become the chief. And then I'll go to the Spiritual River and fetch the spiritual lotus for you. I'll make sure you'll recover.

Besides, I, Kerwin, am the eldest prince who's supposed to be the next chief anyway. I won't let anyone else get it!

Humph! I'm destined to be the next chief!

Anyone who tries to get in my way will die!"

As the prince spoke, a hint of cruelty flashed through his eyes.

"Ha-ha! My prince, what I like most is how you never give up. You're so charming that I just can't resist you. Come here, darling. Let's do something more interesting..."

Every word that left Ariana's lips was full of temptation. As she strode closer to Kerwin, her scent filled the air.

Since Kerwin had long been deeply attracted to her, how could he resist it when she was throwing herself into his embrace? He immediately stepped closer to her and tugged her in his arms.

"Ha-ha!"
