Chapter 350: Chapter 248: The Pope Fights Back! Didn’t You Promise to Obey?

"Stop fooling around!"

Lucia chided softly, taking a step back from Su Xuan’s relentless advance.

Her gaze was a bit evasive, and she hesitated at the thought of Su Xuan helping her bathe.

As a long-time member of the Guild, Lucia didn’t believe for a second that Su Xuan would behave himself while she bathed!

"Lucia, can’t you trust me a little more?" Su Xuan sighed, speaking with a sense of helplessness.

He felt incredibly guilty that Lucia had missed her weekly Holy Water cleansing and felt he absolutely had to compensate her for it!

"Besides, don’t you want a chance to order me around as you please?" Su Xuan continued. "For today only, I’ll make an exception and be your servant. I’ll obey your every command. How about it?"

"Obey my every command?"

Lucia’s delicate brows furrowed slightly as she considered it.

Although she was used to the meticulous care of the handmaidens in the Bright Church Court and had long grown accustomed to ordering servants around from her high station, she didn’t particularly care for it.

However, Su Xuan was an exception.

He was always pushing her buttons, and he’d even made her "try chrysanthemum tea." She’d been wanting to teach this guy a lesson for a long time!

So, Lucia shot Su Xuan a cool glance and replied faintly, "You’re the one who said it!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Lucia gently removed her golden gown, revealing her fair, voluptuous figure.

Before getting into the bath, she turned to Su Xuan and reminded him, "Remember what you just said. You will obey my every command!"

"You can rest assured," Su Xuan said with a smile. "By the way, does someone always attend to you when you bathe?"

As he spoke, he took out pink flower petals and scattered them into the hot spring, adding a bit of romantic flair.

Lucia stepped lightly into the water. The warmth instantly enveloped her skin, dyeing her face a faint crimson.

The pink rose petals floating on the surface created a delightful contrast with her snow-white skin, forming a breathtakingly beautiful picture.

Su Xuan stood to the side, his gaze captivated by Lucia’s beauty.

No matter how many times he admired her, Lucia’s unique charm always made his heart flutter and his Holy Light flicker.

"What are you spacing out for?"

Seeing Su Xuan just standing there in a daze, Lucia instructed softly, "Start by massaging my shoulders. Because of you, not only did I miss my Holy Water cleansing, but I’ve also been busy handling Church Court affairs from last night until now."

"Alright!"

Hearing this, Su Xuan quickly snapped out of it and walked over to Lucia.

He knelt and began to gently massage her elegant shoulders.

Perhaps because he knew her body like the back of his hand, the pressure from Su Xuan’s massage perfectly hit all the right spots, making Lucia close her eyes in comfort.

Combined with the warm water caressing her skin, she couldn’t help but let out a soft moan.

"How does that feel?" Su Xuan asked tentatively.

"Mmm... it’s nice," Lucia replied calmly, slowly opening her eyes.

Inside, however, her heart was in turmoil. ’Why does everything he does hit my sweet spots so perfectly?!’

’I can barely resist him. It’s like he has complete control over me!’

Of course, Su Xuan knew this feeling well—the way his Holy Light would entwine around Ivsha...

Ahem~

At the thought, even though his reserves of Holy Light were a little low, it still flickered involuntarily, accidentally touching the back of Lucia’s head.

Lucia: "?"

"Heh heh~ How about I massage your legs, too?"

Su Xuan cleverly seized the initiative, deftly changing the subject.

"You..."

Before Lucia could respond, he had already slipped into the water and gently lifted her slender foot. Soaked in the warm water, her ankle was as white as snow with a faint pinkish hue, as beautiful as a delicate work of art.

The moment his palm cradled her foot, Lucia lost all ability to resist.

If Ivsha’s weakness was her succubus tail, then for Lucia...

...every inch of her skin was a weak point!

But puzzlingly, when Su Xuan tried to use the [Weakness! Weakness!] ability to probe for Lucia’s weak points, no red light appeared, which made him wonder.

But, that wasn’t important~

His fingertips glided over Lucia’s snow-white skin, moving slowly upward, yet always pulling back just as he reached the brink of her anger.

"Stop! Stop it!"

Lucia bit her lip, her shimmering eyes fixed on Su Xuan, signaling for him to stop immediately.

Her snow-white skin was flushed such a deep crimson it looked like it might start bleeding!

Su Xuan noticed Lucia’s reaction, and his heart skipped a beat. He deliberately slowed his movements and asked softly, "Is it uncomfortable?"

"No, it’s just..."

Lucia tried to answer, but her voice was lost in the slight trembling of her body.

’Just why is this happening?’

’Lucia!’

’You’re the high and mighty Bright Pope!’

’Why are you losing your composure like this in front of Su Xuan?’

Meanwhile, Su Xuan grew even bolder.

He knew deep down that the activation of his [Sensitive] Authority had turned Lucia into a snowflake, ready to melt at any moment.

He even noticed that the value for his Sensitive Authority had soared to an astonishing 599%!

This value had long surpassed the previously known limit of 500%!

He didn’t know why. ’Could it be because of the change in Lucia’s mental state?’

As his thoughts raced, Su Xuan’s fingertips slowly ascended once more.

"!?"

Lucia’s eyes suddenly widened as she stared intently at Su Xuan.

’We agreed he would follow my orders, so why is he acting on his own again?’

But from Su Xuan’s perspective, silence meant consent!

’Time to continue!’

’Time to baptize her snow-white skin!’

"You insolent fiend!"

With a hint of anger on her face, Lucia kicked out at Su Xuan, but her foot landed squarely on his Holy Light.

She had controlled her strength perfectly—not too forceful, yet not too light—hitting the precise critical point to trigger a Holy Radiance Burst!

PEW~

The sudden Holy Light Baptism caught Lucia completely off guard. She instinctively closed her eyes and raised a hand to shield them.

However, it was too late. The brilliant Light instantly showered her face, illuminating her skin until it shone brightly, sparkling like starlight.

"Ahem~"

Su Xuan felt a bit awkward. He wanted to explain that it was just an accident, but would Lucia believe him?

At the same time, a thin layer of frost seemed to cover Lucia’s face.

She rose gracefully, placed her hands on Su Xuan’s chest, and with a slight push, gently shoved him into the water.

Then, before Su Xuan could react, she stomped down hard on his Holy Light.

"You like to ’burst’?" she said, the corners of her mouth curling into a chilly smile. "Then I’ll let you burst until you’ve had enough!"
