My Celestial Ascension

After searching through the array of missions on the boards, Yuan's eyes landed on a particular mission that required them to hunt down a Flame Tiger that had attacked a noble family and killed a member of the family.

Mission: Flame Tiger Subjugation

Detail: Track down and subdue the Flame Tiger responsible for the attack on the Starfall noble family within the darkwood forest, and bring justice to fallen members of the Starfall family. And bring the tiger to the hunter association for confirmation, dead or alive.

Mission difficulty: A

Reward: 500 Gold coins (extra 200 gold coins if the tiger is alive)

Yuan rushed for the mission paper, tore it from the mission board, and presented it to his wives and girlfriend.

"Yuan, are you sure we can handle this mission? The association will not allow it since we are C-rank hunters, and the task is only for A-rank hunters." Leah expressed concern about the assignment because the association has tight standards and will not allow them to do such a perilous task.

Seeing her apprehensive expression, Yuan gently pinched her cute nose and added, "Don't worry, they won't stop us from accepting this mission; after all, we've become quite famous after eradicating the corrupted monsters."

"And, besides, we're doing this mission as a group, not individually," Rose explained, resting her hand on Leah's shoulder.

Anna Grace took the task from her son, reviewed the details for a few moments, then remarked, "The tiger is said to be in the Darkwood forest; it will take us a day to get there."

"The Exposition mission is only a week away; we have plenty of time to finish it and return here before the gathering at the Gladiator Arena, before marching towards the Forest of Never Return," Yuan said, taking the mission from his mother's hand and heading to the reception desk to register for the mission.

When they arrived at the reception counter, the receptionist recognized them right away and greeted them with a lovestruck smile.

"W-Welcome to the Hunters Association. Please let me know how I can help you." The receptionist questioned with a blush on her face, her gaze drawn to Yuan's attractive features.

'Oh my God! He is quite attractive! I--I believe I have fallen in love with him!' The receptionist screamed within, her heartbeat racing and her face becoming extremely hot.

"*Cough*" Anna Grace rolled her eyes and cleared her throat to bring the receptionist back to reality, then gazed at Yuan with a piercing gaze.

"Ahem! Miss, we would like to take this mission; please take a look at it." Yuan also cleared his throat before putting the task on the desk.

"Ah…Sorry for that!" The receptionist emerged from her stupor and hastily apologized to them.

She then verified the mission information and took a few seconds to gaze at Yuan and his wives before writing something in a large record book.

"This mission exceeds the mission rank you're allowed to take by two levels, however since you guys are very strong and have much more experience fighting monsters than most A-rank monsters, I'll register this mission to you guys." Before providing Yuan with a copy of the mission, the receptionist took advantage of the opportunity to touch his hands.

'So silky and smooth... How can a man have such flawless skin? This is really incredible!' She mumbled quietly as if astonished by Yuan's silky skin.

Anna Grace and the other girls shook their heads in dissatisfaction.

Yuan sighed as he observed the receptionist's behavior before him. He then took the copy and left the Hunter Association without even looking at the receptionist twice.

And, while Yuan disregarded the receptionist, Anna Grace, and the girls smiled pleasantly at him.

After that, they returned to their inn and informed Miss Zara that they were leaving for a few days on a mission from the Hunter Association.

Miss Zara then told Yuan and his wives to wait while she prepared food for them on their route to the mission's destination.

A few minutes later, she emerged from the kitchen and handed them a large box containing meals for them.

"Eat it on your way, and return safely," she stated, smiling.

"Thank you, Miss Zara." Yuan thanked her before proceeding to the location where their carriage was parked.

When Yuan arrived at the parking lot, he promptly readied the carriage to proceed to the Darkwood forest. Once that was completed, Lily immediately took over as the carriage's coachman, as she was the only one among them who knew how to drive a carriage.

Yuan and his women hurriedly boarded the carriage, and after everyone was aboard, Lily directed the horses ahead.

As they drove through the streets of the capital city, the carriage's 'unusual' aspect drew the attention of many individuals, many of whom were intrigued by its appearance.

They couldn't stop themselves from glancing at the carriage, wondering who owned it, for the coachman was a stunning woman.

Lily, on the other hand, ignored the strange looks of the passers-by and continued to drive the carriage down the correct path. Soon later, they arrived at the city gate.

As usual, the city entrance was crowded, with a large queue of people waiting to enter and exit the city.

After waiting in the queue for around 30 minutes, it was finally their turn to cross the city gate and depart the city.

Lily cautiously moved the carriage forward, and when the guard inquired about their destination, Yuan handed them a copy of the mission, and the guard opened the way for them.

Once they passed through the city gate, Lily raised the speed of the carriage, and it soon began to run at full speed.

—

They've been traveling all day, pausing only briefly for lunch and an hour of rest for the horses before continuing on their trek.

And now it's afternoon, and the sun is gently setting. They must find the ideal location to park the carriage and spend the night; after all, they cannot spend the night in a dark forest surrounded by terrifying monsters.

A few minutes later, Lily unexpectedly saw a location that could be ideal for them to stop the carriage and spend the night away from dangerous beasts.

"Dear, what do you think about that place to stay the night? It's near the river, so we can feed water to our horses and have fresh water to cook with." Lily pointed her finger into the distance.

Yuan followed her eyes and noticed a few trees near the river, which Lily had just mentioned was a nice place for them to spend the night.

"That place does look perfect to me," Yuan answered. "Let's stop our carriage there."

"Got it!" Lily smiled and nodded before looking at him with a passionate stare.

"Dear, how about you give me a little reward for finding such a perfect spot for us to spend the night?" She spoke with a sexy grin on her face and licked her lips.

"How can you think of something like 'that' at a time like this?" Yuan gave her a disappointed smile before moving his face closer to hers.

"Well, don't think much about it, and give me my 'reward' already."

"As you wish, Your Highness!" Yuan exclaimed with a grin before pushing his lips to her soft lips, while Lily's hands remained steady on the reins.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still as they lost themselves in one another. The world faded away as they felt each other's lips, leaving only the warmth of their connection to guide them.

Lily's hold on the reins loosens, and she wraps her arms around his neck, responding to the kiss with increased intensity and fierceness, inserting her tongue into his mouth and slurping on his saliva, which was like nectar to her.

When they finally pulled apart, their breaths mingling in the cool evening air, Yuan looked into Lily's eyes, his heart lay bare before her.

"I love you, Lily," Yuan said, even though he had said the same thing many times before.

"Yuan," She breathed, her voice badly above a whisper, "I love you too."

They arrived at the destination a few minutes later, and the carriage came to a halt gradually.

Yuan got out of the carriage and led the horses to the river to feed them water, following which he tied them to nearby trees.

Meanwhile, his mother and wives prepared the meals, which consisted of only a few dishes due to the limited materials they brought for the mission.

Shortly after, the dinner was finished, and everyone began to eat while it was still hot, as they had to leave early the next morning to enter the Darkwood forest and find the Flame Tiger.

Yuan smiled at them when everyone had finished eating and said, "We have a very busy day ahead, so let's go to bed and get some proper rest."

Before entering the carriage, his wives and lover nodded, "Very well."

His mother quickly readied the mattress for them to sleep on and removed pillows and blankets from her spatial ring as it became colder at night.

As soon as Yuan lay down on the bed, Xi took her place on his left side, while Anna Grace took the right.

She dragged his head towards her breasts and buried his face between her boobs, causing a huge amount of her breastmilk to seep from her breasts and wet Yuan's face.

"Sorry about that," she said to him, humorously biting her tongue.

"I don't mind," Yuan said, shaking his head and smiling slightly.
