"Never have I ever...fought with a sword!"

Li Ming groaned out loud to express her misery.

Who would have thought that her mates were even capable of turning such a fun game into the very definition of boredom?

She just wanted to finish the game as soon as possible and went to sleep.

The amount of alcohol that was swimming through her system was making her head and mind hurt every time the Immortals started shouting at each other.

And Snowy's constant mocking and ridiculing remarks were not helping her either.

The little furball was acting like a nonstop nagging mother who just could not stand her children having a good time.

"Is something wrong, Little One?" Lord Yueliang asked as he emptied the wine from his glass.

However, Li Ming's attention was pulled towards the Second Demon Prince who was the only one that did not drink the wine.

"Why are you not drinking?" She asked as she finished her own wine and placed the empty glass back in its initial position.

It was a struggle for her to crane her neck backward to look at the face of her handsome mate who was holding her protectively in his arms.

"Because I never used one. From the day I was introduced to the world of weapons at the age of five, I realized that not a single one out of that vast ocean of weapons was able to pull at my spiritual qi and that's why I refused from using any kind of weapon."

Hei Long answered her question but his answer only led to the rise of her curiosity.

Her eyes landed on the jade flute that was still lying beside him, sparkling in the darkness that was covering the room.

"It's a long story. I'll tell you at some other time." Hei Long softly said as he rested his chin back on her shoulder and her fragrance take over his senses.

Li Ming lightly nodded her head in return. She had a feeling that the story behind the jade flute was not just a simple one.

Just a single glance at that shining musical instrument and she knew that it was more than what it appeared.

She wanted to be fully sober while listening to that story and currently she was nowhere near being sober.

"By the way, can you guys stop running this game? How can you ask such boring questions?" She huffed as she gave her mates one of her most bored looks.

"Fine! I'll ask the next question. Ready?" Zhang Yong asked as he looked at everyone excitedly.

When everyone nodded their heads in reply, the Shadow Lord continued.

"Here we go then. Never have I ever been to a brothel!"

Once again the room was filled with silence. No one knew what most surprising, Zhang Yong asking such a question or the Heaven Emperor picking up his wine glass before gulping down its contents.

Li Ming sure was surprised you see that out of all of her mates it was the shy and modest Heaven Emperor who had been to a brothel.

But who she was to question because soon enough she would be the one being questioned.

"I actually went to one when we were on a mission in the Jin Empire. These guys tricked me and I ended up taking the task of finding clues in a brothel. That's all. Never before or after that day have I ever looked at such a place."

The Heaven Emperor quickly tried to explain the situation to his mate who was carrying a funny expression.

"Oh, there's no need for you to explain. A-actually...."

Li Ming trailed off as her eyes landed on Snowy who was also looking at her.

'I don't think a strip club and a brothel is the same thing, right?' She asked Snowy through their mind link.

Her eyes were filled with hope as she tried to not make it obvious that she was talking with her familiar while she waited for the little furball to reply.

'To be honest, they can actually be portrayed as the same thing. A brothel in this world not only provides pleasure to its guests but also entertainment with music, dance, and drinks, exactly what a strip club is like in the modern world. Looks like you need to drink too.'

Snowy's mocking reply made Li Ming curse her bad luck in her heart as her hand slowly inched towards her wine glass.

And without even looking at her mates, she gulped down all the wine of her glass.

Being the head of a supernatural clan, it was very normal for her to meet with her spies and informants in bars, clubs, or even in a strip club.

Those meetings were the only reason behind her visits to such a place, but how was she supposed to explain that to her mates.

If she had known that playing this game would end with her innocent image being completely ruined in the eyes of her nates, she would never have made such a huge mistake of suggesting this game.

"As you all are already aware that brothels can provide a lot of secret information, it's normal that I would visit them if I want some kind of secret information. There's no other reason." She softly spoke while looking down at her empty wine glass.

She felt fingers on her chin as she was made to look up and the very next second, the warm lips of Ruoshan covered her soft ones.

It was only a quick small peck but it was enough for her to relax a little bit as she looked into the beautiful eyes of her mate who gave her one of his warmest smiles.

"It's okay. No need to explain. Let's end this game here. If we continued drinking then none of us will be able to control the consequences."

This time Ruoshan's words were directed at the rest of his brothers who immediately nodded their heads.

Just when they were about to stand up from their sitting positions to clean up the room and leave, Snowy interrupted them.

"Can I play the last round of this game? Please!"

Li Ming felt like someone was trying to pull her soul out of her body.

What the hell the little Pomeranian was planning to do?

Li Ming's thoughts and mind were full of panic as she tried to find out what Snowy was about to do next.

She had no idea if she had any other kinky secret left but looking at the little furball's face, she was getting a very bad feeling in her heart.

Just when she was about to refuse, she heard a commanding voice beat her as it ranged into her ears.

"Sure. Go on and be quick!"

Her eyes stared at Wen Guiying as she watched him digging a grave for her. What kind of mate he was? Could not he see that the little furball was about to utter dome otherworldly level nonsense?

Her eyes hurriedly turned around to look at the rest of her mates, however, she found each of them looking at Snowy as if they too were anticipating what her familiar was about to speak.

"Okay. Here it is, Never have I ever kissed a girl on her lips!"

The Immortals immediately groaned as they realized that they had been played by their mate's little familiar.

They all poured wine into their glasses and gulped it down to finish the game.

The only one who remained I'm bothered by Snowy's words was Zhang Yong as he was the only one who did not drink.

Li Ming slowly reached out for the wine jar in Ruoshan's hands as she snatched it and without even carrying about pouring it into the glass, she took a huge gulp straight from the jar.

Her eyes were tightly shut as she listened to the silence that had fallen over her surroundings.

Her heartbeat was so fast and loud that for the next few seconds her mind could only concentrate on them.

"Y-you..."

"...kissed a g-girl?" Zhang Yong asked and just by hearing his voice, Li Ming could tell that the Shadow Lord was beyond shocked at that moment.

A sigh left her lips as she slowly opened her eyes while nodding her head slightly.

"It was when I was younger...well..., I mean... let's say it happened a long time ago. I ended up in a challenge with some people and unfortunately, I lost. As a punishment, I was needed to kiss a girl..."

She stopped when she realized that a particular pair of eyes were boring into her as she was trying to explain.

She looked up and found the Supreme Immortal staring right into her eyes as his own was covered in dark fire.

"So, just because you lost that challenge and the winner asked you to kiss someone as a punishment, you agreed to do it?" Wen Guiying asked as he kept staring at her.

Li Ming clicked her fingers and Snowy immediately disappeared from the room, leaving her alone with her mates.

"Yes! I agreed to complete the punishment. I could not go back on my words no matter what."

This time her voice came out more than a whisper as her confidence returned.

"What if rather than a girl, they would have punished you by making you kiss a boy? Would you still have done it?"
