After a simple, steaming hot meal, Ye Qiu and the others planned to return to their rooms.
The three girls still shared a room, and Ye Qiu's room was next to theirs.
At the door of the room, Ning Rongrong lagged behind the two girls.
Her azure eyes held a hint of cunning.
As soon as the two girls entered the room, she quickly ran to Ye Qiu's side.
A fragrant breeze accompanied her azure figure, and Ye Qiu, who was about to enter his room, paused.
"Rongrong, what's wrong?"
Ning Rongrong cautiously glanced at her room door.
Only after confirming that Xiao Wu and the others had gone in did she, with a flushed face, lean close to Ye Qiu's ear.
A wave of warmth entered his ear, her voice soft and quite alluring.
"Ye Qiu~ Do you want... me to help you scrub your back? And you can give me a massage... How about it?"
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at her.
His expression changed, and his pupils constricted slightly.
A teasing smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist, bringing them face to face, their bodies pressed tightly together.
Ning Rongrong hooked her arms around his neck, looking up with a flushed, charming face and cooing, "How about it~"
"I don't think so! You'd better go back obediently!" Ye Qiu flicked her nose bridge; her skin was very smooth and tender, tinged with a slight blush.
"Why?! Are you still thinking about that Meng Yiran?" Ning Rongrong's expression changed, and she frowned as she looked at him.
"I'll leave it to you all."
Ye Qiu gave her an exasperated look, released his arm from around her, and, after leaving a sentence, was about to enter his room.
"Ye Qiu! What do you mean?!"
Ning Rongrong's face panicked, and she was about to chase after him.
But she was lifted up, and a playful voice sounded in her ear: "Rongrong, you'd better not disturb Xiao Qiu!"
"Ah! Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, you, why did you come out?" Ning Rongrong's two small feet dangled in the air, her face crimson, as the two girls directly carried her back into the room.
"We came out to find someone to scrub our backs!" Xiao Wu said with a smiling face, pinching Ning Rongrong's fair and rosy cheek.
"I want to know how Ye Qiu massaged you!" Zhu Zhuqing looked at her with a deep gaze, her eyes sweeping downwards.
"Ah! I, I don't know anything!"
Ning Rongrong struggled, trying to escape the two girls' hold.
Seeing the bathroom getting closer and closer, she struggled even harder.
"What do you two want to do? Hey, I, I'll undress myself,嘤~"
"I, I'm going to tell Ye Qiu that you're bullying me! 嘤咛~"
Water sounds and Ning Rongrong's somewhat hurried exclamations came from the bathroom.
"We're not bullying you, we're serving Miss Ning while you bathe."
"No! I, I'll do it myself..."
"..."
In the room next door.
The bathrooms of the two rooms were separated only by a wall.
Ye Qiu soaked in the water, faintly hearing the sounds of playful splashing from next door.
"Why does this girl keep calling my name? And she's getting more and more excited doing it..."
He shook his head helplessly, not paying much attention.
As long as they didn't break her.
...
Approaching noon, Ye Qiu and the others had already washed up.
Zhao Wuji and the others were in their rooms catching up on sleep and recuperating.
However, Ye Qiu's and the three girls' rooms were empty.
...
Inside the Divine Might Space.
In the center of a large stone platform, there was a soft straw mat woven from Blue Silver Emperor.
Ye Qiu and the others were sitting cross-legged there.
The three girls' long hair was spread out, still with some water droplets, their fair and rosy faces more delicate than lotuses, like water lilies emerging from the water.
They were still wearing pajamas of different styles.
Ning Rongrong wore a halter-neck nightdress that just covered her perky buttocks, exposing her two fair, well-proportioned legs, making it seem as if she wasn't wearing pants at first glance.
Zhu Zhuqing wore a long, loose nightgown that Ye Qiu was quite familiar with, her ample bosom outlining a captivating silhouette. Her long hem subtly revealed her fair, long legs.
As for Xiao Wu's pajamas, pink was the main color, a halter-neck crop top with a pair of white rabbits embroidered on it, covering her well-developed figure.
Her graceful arms and fragrant shoulders were dazzling, and her smooth, fair back was endearing.
Below, she wore a pair of two- or three-inch long red shorts, which, set against her slender waist and long legs, made her appear much smaller overall.
The Blue Silver Emperor emitted a faint fragrance, alleviating their fatigue.
At this moment, Ye Qiu's robes were a bit disheveled, and there were still tooth marks on his neck.
There were also specks of glistening moisture.
When he had just gone to the three girls' room, Ning Rongrong was lying on the bed with a flushed body, like a lovesick girl.
After carrying her into the Divine Might Space, she had been clinging to him, refusing to let go.
Now, the soft, warm Ning Rongrong was nestled in Ye Qiu's arms, her azure eyes sparkling, her face flushed red.
Like a pet cat, she gently rubbed her head against Ye Qiu's firm chest.
Her skin was still faintly glowing red.
Ye Qiu only needed to brush her waist to feel her slight tremor.
"Rongrong, are you alright?" Ye Qiu touched her forehead; her clinging had made him a bit hot.
"N-nothing! I just feel a bit weak..." Ning Rongrong's crimson lips lightly touched Ye Qiu's skin, making Ye Qiu's face feel warm.
Seeing her looking so overly excited.
Ye Qiu gave an exasperated glance at Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, who were sitting opposite him, not daring to look at him.
Xiao Wu looked at him with a flushed face: "Th-this was all Zhuqing's idea, she insisted on massaging Rongrong!"
"What?! Xiao Wu... you! You were clearly the one who told her to go!" Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened, her face red and heart pounding as she retorted to Xiao Wu.
As she spoke, she held one hand to her chest, so as not to move too much and disarrange her nightgown, revealing too much.
"I, I didn't know Rongrong's body was so delicate!" Xiao Wu looked chagrined, slowly lowering her head.
When she trembled, Xiao Wu was also startled.
Ye Qiu sighed, not wanting to pursue the matter any further.
He embraced Ning Rongrong's restlessly moving body and spoke to the two girls in front of him.
"Alright, you two had better pull Rongrong back, otherwise I won't be able to talk!"
Now he was already feeling a bit uneasy.
"No!"
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, making no move.
"Why?"
Ye Qiu looked at them strangely.
"Because as compensation, we've given you to Rongrong for a while!" Xiao Wu looked up, smiling sheepishly.
"You've given me as compensation?!"
Ye Qiu looked at the two of them, raising an eyebrow.
"Rongrong herself wanted this..."
Xiao Wu covered her mouth, chuckling, and pointed at Ning Rongrong in his arms.
"It's alright! Rongrong is just temporarily exhausted, she can hear us talking! You should quickly tell us about the Titan Giant Ape!"
Zhu Zhuqing secretly looked at Ning Rongrong, who was sitting on Ye Qiu's lap, a shy smile appearing on her face.
"Alright!" Ye Qiu tightened his arms, trying to support Ning Rongrong in his embrace.
Ning Rongrong's face was flushed, but her eyes held a smile, and she returned Ye Qiu's hug.
"Xiao Wu, why don't you tell us!"
"Mm!"
Hearing his words, Xiao Wu nodded, her smile disappearing, replaced by a somewhat serious, even uneasy expression.
Seeing her like this, Zhu Zhuqing also felt something was amiss.
"Rongrong! Don't mess around... listen carefully!" Ye Qiu noticed that the girl in his arms was slowly recovering.
He shook his head exasperatedly, dodging her playful bites.
"Mm, I'm listening too!" Ning Rongrong leaned forward for a bite, then settled down, resting in Ye Qiu's arms and listening quietly.
Xiao Wu seemed conflicted, as if it was difficult to speak, her voice becoming much lower: "Zhuqing, Rongrong... Actually, I'm not human!"
"?"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xiao Wu strangely.
Ning Rongrong, like a koala, also turned her head to look at her strangely.
If she hadn't been the victim just now.
She would have thought Xiao Wu was also overly excited and confused.
Otherwise, why would she say such nonsense?
Xiao Wu ignored their strange looks, took a deep breath, and clenched her delicate fists.
"I'm serious, I'm a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast that has taken human form!"
"What?!" Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened, looking at her in disbelief.
Ning Rongrong's mind, which was about to recover, became muddled again.
Unable to believe her ears, she sought confirmation from Ye Qiu.
"Ye Qiu, what did Xiao Wu just say?"
Xiao Wu Jie said she was a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast that had taken human form!" Ye Qiu tidied her hair, repeating Xiao Wu's words very seriously.
Ning Rongrong froze for a moment.
"Is it true?" Zhu Zhuqing was also stunned speechless, looking at Ye Qiu blankly.
"Of course it's true, even the Titan Giant Ape is Xiao Wu's little brother!"
Ye Qiu's words shocked Zhu Zhuqing even more, leaving her unable to recover for a long time.
Ye Qiu didn't stop, continuing to reveal more.
"The Titan Giant Ape is named Er Ming, and Xiao Wu also has a younger brother named Da Ming, who is a Sky Azure Bull Python. They are both Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts!"
"We went together to hunt down Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao, who knew Xiao Wu's identity! He is now very likely dead!"
Ye Qiu didn't just speak; he directly used his Sharingan.
He materialized everything he saw and heard during the assassination of Tang Hao, including the secret plotting process with Da Ming and Er Ming, using genjutsu, allowing the two girls to experience it firsthand.
Regarding whether Tang Hao was dead or alive,
Ye Qiu felt the probability of death was as high as ninety-nine percent.
Even if he survived, he would be mostly crippled, not far from death.
Already suffering from internal injuries, he was probably on the verge of sudden death at any moment and would certainly not dare to jump around wildly anymore!
"Wow! Ye Qiu, you're amazing! You actually killed that Clear Sky Douluo!"
Ning Rongrong, who had just emerged from the genjutsu, immediately hugged Ye Qiu's neck, her whole body bouncing in his arms.
Her head tightened, causing Ye Qiu's face to darken. He quietly but firmly held her in his arms.
This was to prevent any bumps or falls that might lead to a bloody incident if she didn't sit steadily.
Ning Rongrong also realized what had happened, her face flushing, but she stopped moving, her expression still one of pride and adoration!
Zhu Zhuqing's expression was similar, her eyes shining with various emotions as she looked at him: shock, pride, relief... a dazzling display.
She knew her choice was correct!
"Why are you all looking at me like that? I wasn't the one who did it; it was mainly Da Ming and Er Ming!"
Ye Qiu had a clear understanding of his own abilities.
Against a Titled Douluo level expert, once their domineering aura was released, even if he used Divine Might Space to get close, he wouldn't dare to easily show himself.
"That's still incredibly impressive! That's Clear Sky Douluo, someone even Father and Grandpa Sword often praised... If they knew, they'd be even more shocked than I am!"
"Ah! Ye Qiu~ Why did you hit me?"
Ning Rongrong, who had been excited, suddenly shrieked, looking at him with tears in her eyes.
"You really shouldn't say anything about this..."
Ye Qiu glared at her, giving her a reminder.
"I wouldn't! Miss isn't stupid!" Ning Rongrong's face was full of reproach and grievance.
"If you dare to hit me like that again next time, I, I'll sit you to death! Hmph!" Ning Rongrong released her hands, bounced twice fiercely, and let out a muffled grunt.
Her face was flushed, her small mouth slightly agape, exhaling a little mist that brushed against Ye Qiu's head.
She had bumped her head and was feeling a bit dizzy again.
"Uh~" Ye Qiu's face darkened.
Thankfully, he held her tightly, preventing Ning Rongrong from falling, otherwise, this pampered Miss would surely have split her head open.
Zhu Zhuqing secretly chuckled, watching Ye Qiu's stiff and awkward expression.
"Alright! Don't get the main point wrong!" Ye Qiu really couldn't hold back anymore.
He unceremoniously moved Ning Rongrong to the side, letting her lean on his shoulder.
This was to prevent her from constantly playing tricks and lusting after his body.
"The main point? What is it?" Ning Rongrong looked at him strangely.
What could be more shocking than killing a Titled Douluo?!
Ye Qiu looked at Xiao Wu, who had become somewhat reserved, and Zhu Zhuqing had also noticed her change earlier.
"Are you talking about Xiao Wu's true identity?" Zhu Zhuqing turned her head to look at Xiao Wu, a hint of admiration in her eyes.
"Xiao Wu?" Ning Rongrong finally sat up straight and looked at her.
Just now, both of them had unconsciously overlooked that Xiao Wu was a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast who had taken human form.
"Zhuqing, Rongrong... Will we still be good sisters?" Xiao Wu's eyes darted away, not daring to look directly at them.
Although Ye Qiu had told her many times before that Zhuqing and Rongrong wouldn't mind her identity,
she was still a little nervous deep down.
The air was quiet for a moment.
Just as Xiao Wu's face showed disappointment, a clear, echoing sound, Zhu Zhuqing's melodious voice, reached her ears.
"Of course we will!"
Zhu Zhuqing's face rarely showed such a gentle smile as she held Xiao Wu's hand in her own.
"Although you were a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast before, the Xiao Wu I know is the current Xiao Wu!"
"Thank you! Zhuqing..."
"That's right! And we are all Ye Qiu's women... We are good sisters!" Ning Rongrong released Ye Qiu's arm and also came to Xiao Wu's side.
"Rongrong... Stop messing around!" Xiao Wu's shy and chiding voice rang out.
Ning Rongrong leaned in and pecked her little face, then hugged her slender waist, looking at Ye Qiu with a teasing voice: "Ye Qiu can't do without you. What if someone doesn't want me if I'm not your sister!"
"Xiao Qiu wouldn't do that!"
Xiao Wu slapped away Ning Rongrong's wandering hand, her face flushed as she looked at Ye Qiu, adopting the air of a big sister: "If he dares not to want you, Xiao Wu Jie won't want..."
"Won't want what? Won't want Ye Qiu anymore?"
Seeing Xiao Wu's words pause, Ning Rongrong's expression lit up, her eyes full of anticipation mixed with teasing as she looked at her.
Xiao Wu gently shook her head, looking at Ye Qiu with a bit of guilt, and after a moment of thought, slowly uttered the second half of her sentence to Ning Rongrong.
"Xiao Wu Jie just won't talk to him anymore!"
"Pfft~" Watching Xiao Wu stand with her hands on her hips, saying such cowardly words, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Xiao Wu, are you not even willing to humor me?" Ning Rongrong said with a bitter face, looking at her resentfully.
She suddenly felt she had expressed her stance a bit too early; she should have scared her first.
"Rongrong... I'm sorry! I, I can't be without Xiao Qiu..." Xiao Wu said with an apologetic and very serious expression.
"Zhuqing... Look at her, from now on, the two of us need to stick together!" Ning Rongrong cried with a long face. Knowing that Xiao Wu was unreliable, she threw herself into Zhu Zhuqing's arms again.
"Rongrong! Quickly take your paws off me, you're messing up my clothes!" Zhu Zhuqing's annoyed voice rang out.
She grabbed Ning Rongrong's restless hands and looked at Ye Qiu, who was not far opposite, her eyes firm.
"I don't want to leave Ye Qiu either!"
...
Watching the three girls, of varying sizes, playfully bickering together, Ye Qiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Qiu, who was already being teased by Ning Rongrong, looked at the occasional glimpses of spring.
He could only lie on his side on the mat woven from the Blue Silver Emperor.
"Uh-oh! Pfft, cough, cough~"
"Ye Qiu! I can't be without you either!"
Ye Qiu, who was closing his eyes for a nap, suddenly felt a soft body press down on him.
He almost couldn't catch his breath.
"Rongrong, if you keep doing this, I'm going to leave this World right away! Do you believe me?"
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes, trying to hug her slender waist.
But his two arms were already being used as pillows by Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu respectively.
"Then we'll go with you!" Zhu Zhuqing leaned on his shoulder, her voice without the slightest ripple, as if she were speaking of a commonplace matter.
"Zhuqing is right, and when the time comes, I'll bring Rongrong along too! Haha!" Xiao Wu also leaned on his shoulder, letting out a silver-bell-like laugh.
"I'm not that heavy! And..." Ning Rongrong glared angrily at Ye Qiu, then quieted down, lying on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. "And I don't want Xiao Wu to bring me!"
"Alright, alright! Why are we saying all this? I was just joking! But Rongrong, it's true you shouldn't move around so much." Ye Qiu lay flat like a wooden character, reminding Ning Rongrong.
"Got it!"
The three girls lay quietly, with no sound other than their breathing.
Ye Qiu suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, Rongrong!"
"What?" Ning Rongrong's somewhat lazy voice rang out; she was already a bit sleepy.
"You can buy a set of Hidden Weapons from Tang San!"
