Rebellious Lord of All Realms: Su Chen's Dark Harem

The tavern heals wounds, love remains intertwined, blood ties bind hearts.The wooden door of the tavern’s private room creaked shut, sealing out the outside clamor and leaving only the scent of medicinal herbs intertwined with the faint aroma of wine. Karin practically threw herself beside Su Chen, cradling his injured left arm with both hands. As her fingertips brushed against the blood, her eyes reddened, and her voice trembled with tears: ”Lord Su Chen, how is the wound so deep! It’s all my fault for not reacting in time...”

”It’s not your fault.” Su Chen raised a hand to stroke her long purple hair, his tone gentle enough to melt ice. ”I chose to protect Hinata; this wound is nothing.” He tore open his blood-stained sleeve, revealing a bone-deep wound still oozing blood, with chaotic spirit power lingering around it. ”Hurry and use your Blood Contract Power; I trust you.”

Kushina leaned against the table with her arms crossed, her long red hair draped over her shoulders. While she appeared aloof, her gaze was fixed intently on the wound, and her tone carried a hint of urgency: ”Don’t dawdle. If this wound isn’t treated, it will be troublesome if too much spirit power is lost.” Though her words were sharp, she quietly took a clean cloth strip from her backpack and set it aside for later use.

Hinata stood on Su Chen’s other side, her cheeks pale and her hands tightly gripping her clothes. Her Byakugan was still repeatedly checking the wound, and she whispered in self-reproach: ”Lord Su Chen, it’s all my fault. If I had been able to lock onto the Spirit Beast’s trajectory faster, you wouldn’t have been injured...”

Qing Lin sat on a nearby bench, the Little Black Snake crawling down her wrist to carefully nuzzle Su Chen’s arm, as if offering comfort. Qing Lin said softly: ”Lord Su Chen, the snake swarm is already on guard outside the door. No one will come to disturb you, so please rest assured and let Karin treat your wound.”

Karin took a deep breath, suppressing the panic and heartache in her heart as her cheeks flushed crimson. She slowly leaned down, bringing her lips close to Su Chen’s wound. She first gently brushed the tip of her nose against his skin, a gesture filled with both shyness and seriousness. When her soft lips pressed against the bleeding wound, Su Chen felt a cool sensation, and her slightly hurried breath brushed across his skin, sending a tingle through him.

”Mm...” Karin gently bit down, instantly activating the Blood Contract Power, and a pale red halo flowed between her and Su Chen. As she slowly drew in the blood from the wound, the sweet taste sliding down her throat made her eyes brighten, and the Blood Contract Power flowed more smoothly—a gentle, restorative energy transferred from her mouth back into Su Chen’s body, spreading along his meridians to repair his damaged flesh and spirit power.

Su Chen felt the pain in his wound gradually dissipate, replaced by a comfortable warmth, as the chaotic spirit power was guided by the Blood Contract Power and slowly returned to calm. He looked down at Karin’s focused expression; her long purple hair draped over his arm, carrying a faint herbal fragrance, and her eyelashes trembled gently like the wings of a butterfly. Unable to resist, he raised his hand to stroke her hair, his fingertips gently combing through the strands with the utmost tenderness.

Karin’s body trembled at his touch, and her sucking paused. Her cheeks flushed so deeply they seemed ready to drip blood. With his skin still against her lips, she mumbled, her voice muffled yet clearly audible: ”Lord Su Chen’s blood... is so sweet...”

Su Chen chuckled, his breath brushing over the top of Karin’s head, his tone filled with doting and teasing: ”If you like it, then drink more. As long as it helps me heal, I’ll let you drink your fill.”

”Lord Su Chen!” Karin jerked her head up, a trace of blood still staining her lips, her eyes filled with a mix of shyness, annoyance, and confusion. ”I... I didn’t mean to. It’s just that the Blood Contract Power needs to operate this way; your blood makes the healing power stronger...”

”I know.” Su Chen interrupted her, gently pinching her burning cheek. His tone was so tender it could drown a person: ”Your Blood Contract Power is amazing, more effective than any healing medicine. You’ve worked hard, my little Karin.”
