Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor

“We’re in the same boat, we’ve got nothing to do anyway. How about we take a walk together? It’ll be a good opportunity to strengthen the bond between us gods. You see, we don’t talk much usually, it’s so distant.”

As she spoke, she deliberately puffed out her chest.

"Maybe there's some huge misunderstanding between us. It's not good to keep it all bottled up. If we talk it out, we can still be good friends!"

The smile on Poseidon's face was starting to stiffen.

Misunderstand?

What misunderstanding could there be between us?
Also, who are your good friends? Don't try to claim any connections!

He was internally cursing, but could only helplessly say, "This, this might not be convenient, right? I just want to be alone."

"Ugh, it's so boring being alone!"

"Who is Jingjing? Tell me, and I, the God of Lust, can even help you devise a plan to seduce someone."

Poseidon:
"Come on, let's go! Poseidon, we'll go with you. Wherever you want to go, we'll go!"

The God of Destruction chimed in, pulling the Sea God along with him.

Poseidon tried to break free, but the other party was, after all, a first-level deity. If he were to use his divine power, the nature of the situation would change.

He could only be dragged along while racking his brains for a way to escape.

"Um... I suddenly remembered, I have some urgent business to attend to in the Forest of Life." The Sea God, quick-witted, pointed in the exact opposite direction from the Temple of Asura.

Upon hearing this, the God of Lust's eyes lit up even more: "To the Forest of Life? Great! It's been a long time since I've seen the Goddess of Life. Let's go together!"

Poseidon:
The God of Destruction, though silent, stayed firmly by the Sea God's side.

Poseidon was in despair.

He felt like he was stuck to two pieces of dog skin plaster, sticky and smelly, and he couldn't peel them off.

He, the mighty sea god, a first-level chief god of the divine realm, is now being forced to "go shopping" by two gods from opposing factions. If word gets out, where will his divine prestige be?
"Um, God of Destruction, could you please let me go? This isn't a good look." Poseidon made a last-ditch effort.

"What's wrong with that?" The god of lust winked gloatingly from the side. "Aren't you two just strengthening your friendship? Does anyone really think you two are doing *that* kind of thing? It's not that bad, hahaha—"

Poseidon gave up completely.

All he wanted now was to get rid of these two plagues as soon as possible and then go to the Temple of Asura.

Judging from the current situation, if he can't come up with a flawless excuse today, he probably won't be able to get away.

In the end, the sea god was "carried" on either side by the god of lust and the god of destruction, and began a one-day "friendly" sightseeing tour of the divine realm in a direction completely opposite to the Asura Temple.

One day in the realm of gods is equivalent to one year in the mortal realm.

While Lust and Destruction were enjoying themselves at the Sea God's feast, they were also giving Little White and the others plenty of time.

……

Qian Renxue's bedroom was elegantly and warmly furnished.

Hu Bai gently placed her on the soft bed, removed her boots which still bore the marks of battle, and covered her with a silky thin quilt.

After doing all this, he didn't leave. Instead, he moved a chair and sat quietly by the bed, watching over her.

The moonlight outside the window shone gently through the gauze curtains, illuminating Qian Renxue's exquisite sleeping face and giving her a holy glow.

Perhaps because her soul power was exhausted, she still frowned slightly in her sleep, and her long eyelashes would occasionally tremble gently, as if she were experiencing something in her dream.

Hu Bai reached out and gently smoothed the wrinkles between her brows with his fingertips.

Although Qian Renxue was in a coma and unable to talk to him or respond to his tenderness.

But even just watching her quietly was a very interesting and incredibly happy thing for Hu Bai.

Time seemed to slow down at that moment.

From acquaintance to understanding, and now to love, everything they experienced together unfolded slowly in his mind like a scroll.

His girl is growing up at an astonishing pace, becoming more and more dazzling.

The smile on Hu Bai's lips unconsciously softened further. ...

The night is getting darker.

After an unknown amount of time, a soft "gurgling" sound broke the silence in the room.

Qian Renxue was feeling a little hungry.

Perhaps it was a bodily instinct, but in her sleep she frowned slightly, her dry lips parted slightly, and she unconsciously murmured, "Water..."

The sound was so faint that it was almost inaudible.

But Hu Bai noticed it immediately.

He immediately got up, poured a glass of warm water, and then carefully helped Qian Renxue's upper body up, letting her lean against him.

He held the water glass to her lips.

The cool, sweet spring water moistened her parched throat, and Qian Renxue slowly opened her heavy eyelids.

As my vision cleared, I saw Hu Bai's face, which was filled with concern.

Seeing him, Qian Renxue felt an unprecedented sense of peace, as if all her fatigue and unease had vanished in that instant.

She drank the warm water in Hu Bai's arms and felt some strength return to her body.

"How long have I been asleep?" She leaned against Hu Bai's chest, her voice still a little hoarse.

"It's only been a short while, just past midnight." Hu Bai placed the water glass on the bedside table without letting go of her arms.

Qian Renxue adjusted to a comfortable position, resting her head on Xiaobai's chest, feeling his strong heartbeat.

She suddenly laughed.

"Xiaobai, I didn't hold you back. At least I defeated Grandpa Guangling within the allotted time."

"Now, he can leave the Spirit Hall with you without worry."

"whee."

Her smile was pure and radiant, with a hint of pride.

Seeing her like this, Hu Bai's heart softened, and he couldn't help but lower his head and gently kiss her forehead.

"You did a great job, even better than I expected."

"My Xue'er is the best in the whole continent."

His praise made Qian Renxue happier than any reward.

The two embraced quietly, enjoying the rare tenderness and tranquility after the battle.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became somewhat ambiguous under the moonlight.

A beautiful blush had crept onto Qian Renxue's cheeks. She could clearly feel the intense heat emanating from Hu Bai and his increasingly heavy breathing.

Her heart, too, began to beat faster, much to her dismay.

She looked up and met Hu Bai's deep, starry eyes.

A blazing fire was burning in those eyes, as if it wanted to melt her completely.

Their eyes met, and their feelings deepened.

All words seem superfluous.

Hu Bai slowly lowered his head and kissed the soft spot he had longed for.
