Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 296

While the other contestants were still fleeing in panic, Xia Die's side was unusually quiet.

"How peaceful..." Xia Die arrived at a pool of water, took off her shoes and socks, and put her feet into the water. Her feet were like exquisite works of art, appearing even more lustrous and beautiful under the reflection of the water. She gently swung her feet, and the splashes of water shimmered in the moonlight.

The moonlight, like water, gently bathed Xiaodie, draping her in a dreamy silver veil. In the surrounding dense forest, the glowing bushes and fluorescent grasses reflected each other, resembling a dazzling galaxy.

In this dreamlike scene, Xia Die seemed like a fairy descended from heaven, exuding an elegant and captivating aura. When her slender white feet were exposed to the air, the live stream chat exploded:
[Jade feet! It's jade feet!]

[Trying to get your hands on jade will only hurt you! Brother, listen to my advice, if you can't handle it, let me do it.]

[These legs, I could look at them for a year and never get tired of them, they're absolutely gorgeous!]

Where is the water in this pool? I'd pay a fortune to buy it!

Okay, okay, you say no, but your body says otherwise, right?

[Taking screenshots like crazy]

[Guys, dinner's ready.]

[The person who mentioned "jade" earlier had a narrow perspective; these are clearly feet kissed by moonlight! Even the water droplets clinging to the ankles look like shattered diamonds!]

[I just posted a screenshot in the group chat, and my buddies went wild. Someone said they wanted to learn to scuba dive, with the goal of touching every rock on the bottom of this pool (just kidding)]

[I suggest the government apply for World Heritage status for this pool, naming it "The Bathing Place of the Fairy Butterfly." I'd be the first to line up and check it out!]

[I'm verbally criticizing you guys for being weird, but my fingers are moving faster than anyone else's—I just took a nine-grid screenshot, anyone want it? DM me (one dollar fee)]

[This shimmering water, these swaying ankles—suddenly I understand why ancient emperors were so captivated by beauty… I'm guilty, but I can't change!]

[Don't just look at her feet! Look at the lines of her calves! The moonlight makes that thin layer of skin look almost transparent, and it looks absolutely stunning with her purple hair!]

Oh no, my mom asked me why I was drooling over my phone. Will she believe me if I said I was looking at national treasures?

[The person who said "showing off" went too far... I want to too, but we have to restrain ourselves! (Secretly saving screenshot number 28)]

In the live stream, a group of "lsp" (a derogatory term for people who are into pornography) stared at Xia Die's feet gently swaying in the pool. The barrage of comments instantly became bold and exaggerated, with the screen filled with teasing and exclamations, all expressing their fascination with Xia Die's unique charm.

[Sister Xia Die, watch out behind you!]

[Miss Xia Die, a monster is approaching from behind!]

Look behind you quickly!

Viewers in the live stream watched as a dark purple giant wolf slowly approached Xia Die from behind, while Xia Die, sitting by the pool, remained completely unaware.

They frantically sent reminders in the live chat, but Xia Die couldn't see any of them.

"rustle--"

Hearing the noise behind her, Xia Die slowly turned her head to look at the wolf. The viewers in the live chat were instantly captivated by this glance—her amethyst-like eyes shone with a translucent luster under the moonlight, as if they held the entire starry sky.

The giant wolf approached step by step and sat down beside her. Xia Die reached out and gently stroked the wolf's forehead. The giant wolf obediently lowered its head and rubbed against her palm, and a ripple of affection appeared in its ghostly eyes.

"I see," Xia Die murmured, feeling the wolf's unique characteristics through her fingertips.

Strictly speaking, it is no longer a living being, but an inanimate object—a dark, undead creature.

However, compared to the undead creatures in her undead realm, this wolf was far too weak. Xia Die stood silently in place, her gaze fixed on the dark purple undead wolf before her. Its eyes flickered with eerie green flames, and dark patterns on its body resembled serpentine shadows, exuding a strange yet captivating aura.

Xia Die slowly raised her hand, her movements as gentle as a breeze brushing against flower petals, and gently stroked the soft-furred yet powerful body of the undead wolf.

The undead wolf seemed to sense Xia Die's goodwill. Instead of resisting, it affectionately rubbed against her face and licked her fair cheek with its pink tongue.

"Haha, it tickles." Xia Die chuckled softly, amused.

Xia Die stood quietly in place, her gaze fixed on the dark purple undead wolf in front of her.

Its eyes flickered with eerie green flames, and its body was covered with dark patterns like the shadowy shadows of a winding snake, exuding an eerie yet captivating aura.

Xia Die slowly raised her hand, her movements as gentle as a breeze brushing against flower petals, and gently stroked the soft-furred yet powerful body of the undead wolf.

The undead wolf seemed to sense Xia Die's goodwill. Instead of resisting, it affectionately rubbed against her face and licked her fair cheek with its pink tongue.

"Haha, it tickles." Xia Die chuckled, gently pushing away the undead wolf's head. A rare, gentle smile appeared in her eyes, a stark contrast to her usual aloof demeanor.

This scene, however, drew a screen full of envy from the live stream viewers, with the "sour grapes" in the comments practically overflowing:
[Oh no, this wolf is dangerous! Watch me! (Switch positions)]

No! You beast, let go of that girl! Let me have her!

[Is this guy a reincarnated wolf? No wonder wolves and dogs look alike; their behavior is exactly the same!]

Do you even understand what it means to be a "simp"? Do you even know the art of being a "simp"?

[I've been licking my goddess's hand for five years and I still haven't received this treatment. Why does this wolf get to do it? Let me lick her hand; I guarantee I'll do it better than it!]

[Holy crap! What's with this wolf? How dare it lick the face of the goddess Xia Die? I refuse to accept this!]

[Oh no, my goddess has been "molested" by a wolf! I'm going to learn to howl like a wolf right now, can I take her place?]

[Is this guy cheating? They're so affectionate right after meeting! I've been pursuing this girl for three years and we haven't even held hands!]

[I suggest awarding this wolf a "Best Luck Award"—I could never dream of such treatment!]

[Stop wailing, everyone. Think about how to stew wolf meat. I've already set up the pot (just kidding)]

Is it possible that I'm actually a wolf in disguise? After all, no one else could be this close to the goddess except me!

[It's so sour! It's so sour! If it dares to stick its tongue out again, I'll crawl down the internet cable and pluck it bald!]

I used to think the phrase "humans are worse than dogs" was heartbreaking enough, but now it seems I'm not even as good as a wolf...

This wolf must know some kind of ingratiation technique, right? Catch it quickly, torture it severely, and force it to reveal the secret!

[Oh no, now I don't like any wolves, especially the dark purple ones!]
