Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, they all have ulterior motives.

Chapter 386 Fellow sufferers

late at night.

In the dead of night, deep in the corridor, the tightly closed door opened silently, and a white-haired figure tiptoed out.

After carefully closing the door and making sure he hadn't made a sound, Huo Yuhao's tense body immediately relaxed a bit.

But then, his body suddenly stiffened, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

This isn't right!

I'm going to help Zhu Lu absorb the Qiankun Creation Pill. I'm not doing anything bad, so why are you acting like a thief?

With this in mind, he subconsciously straightened his back, and with a serious expression, he came to the door of Zhu Lu's room. Hearing the faint sound of running water coming from behind the door, he did not hesitate and pushed the door open and went in.

Snapped--

As the door was gently closed, the other rooms seemed to trigger a chain reaction, opening simultaneously from the inside.

Soon, three furtive figures crept out from inside and approached the doorway as if they had arranged it beforehand.

Looking at her silent companion, Xiao Xiao's face showed a smug look of knowing she had figured things out.

"See? I told you Yuhao would definitely look for Zhu Lu tonight, didn't I?"

Wang Dong'er's face flushed red as she imagined her friend being tormented by Huo Yuhao to the point of ecstasy. Steam rose from her head as she said, "This is Zhu Lu's private matter. Isn't it inappropriate for us to eavesdrop here?"

Nan Qiuqiu fared slightly better than her; although her cheeks were also a little red, her curiosity still prompted her to ask.

"How did you know they would sneak together tonight?"

"Hmph, so you two still have to practice."

Xiao Xiao chuckled smugly, and like a skilled mentor instructing his student, slowly stated his deduction.

"During dinner, Zhu Lu clearly waited for Yu Hao to enter the kitchen before following him in to get more rice. Considering that the two of them spent an unusually long time in the kitchen, I guess they must have been talking about something."

"Of course, I was just a little confused at the time, but when I saw Zhu Lu's shy yet expectant expression after she came back, I suddenly remembered that she had broken through to the Soul Emperor level a couple of days ago, and that confirmed my thoughts."

Nan Qiuqiu nodded thoughtfully, and inexplicably felt a sense of respect for Xiao Xiao.

To be able to guess the truth from just a few clues, this person must be very experienced!

I must ask for your advice if I have the chance.

Why do you always focus on this kind of thing?

Wang Dong'er spat lightly and got up to leave, but Xiao Xiao grabbed her hand first.

"Since we're already here, we might as well eavesdrop and see if Zhu Lu's performance is as impressive as yours back then."

"."

Wang Dong'er froze. Her reason told her that the best thing to do now was to pretend she knew nothing and go back to her room to sleep.

But her legs felt like they were made of lead, and no matter how she tried to move them, she couldn't budge them an inch.

Just as she was wavering, Nan Qiuqiu, who had pressed her ear to the door, frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask a question.

"It seems like all you can hear inside is the sound of water?"

"Yeah?"

Xiao Xiao followed suit and leaned in to listen for a moment before speaking hesitantly.

"They're probably taking a shower. Let's wait a bit."

Zhu Lu was indeed taking a bath.

Especially after hearing the door open and closing and realizing that Huo Yuhao had entered her room, she rubbed even more vigorously.

Don't be nervous, Zhu Lu. Things have come to this point. If we back down now, all our efforts will be in vain.

While trying to comfort herself, Zhu Lu recalled everything that had happened in the kitchen, and then couldn't help but look down.

Upon seeing those two mounds of soft, white flesh that even she found magnificent, to the point that she couldn't even see the toes, she couldn't help but blush.

It seems that Yuhao was watching this spot at the time, right?

Is it because you like it?

Does he think it's a bit too big?

Unable to make up her mind, she could only repeatedly scrub several key areas with her hands covered in dense foam until a strange electric current surged into her brain, jolting her awake. Finally, she made up her mind and stood up from the bathtub.

After quickly drying herself off, she grabbed the lingerie she had carefully chosen, trembling as she put it on, and opened the bathroom door.

Click—

As if it had finally found an outlet, a large amount of white mist instantly filled the entire room, and the originally cool and pleasant temperature rose by several degrees.

Zhu Lu didn't know if it was just her imagination, but even though the bathroom was warmer than the room, she felt a sudden heat rising in her heart when she saw the white-haired figure through the steam.

".Good evening."

She lowered her head slightly and greeted him softly.

"Um, good evening."

Seeing Zhu Lu's barely clothed body, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but catch his breath, a look of astonishment appearing on his face.

"Um... are you wearing this tonight?"

Although he had seen Zhu Lu in a more revealing state when playing games before, he had to admit that sometimes, a few more pieces of fabric that seemed to suggest a hint of desire actually made her look more alluring.

Especially when the other party has made careful preparations.

"Um."

Zhu Lu nodded and said the answer she had already prepared: "I'm afraid I'll wrinkle my clothes when I cultivate later."

Although her words sounded reasonable, her trembling voice betrayed her anxious heart.

Of course, even if he sensed that Zhu Luyan was not being sincere, the understanding Huo Yuhao would not expose her lie at this time.

"In that case, let's begin. Sit down on the bed first."

With some difficulty, Huo Yuhao looked away, coughed twice, and took out the bottle of medicine that had been prepared in advance from his storage space.

"it is good."

Zhu Lu obediently responded and climbed onto the soft bed using both hands and feet. During this time, a glimpse of her snow-white skin swayed back and forth, constantly stimulating Huo Yuhao, who was watching all of this out of the corner of his eye, causing his breathing to quicken slightly.

As the crystal bottle was taken from him, Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhu Lu suddenly paused, asking as if she couldn't hide her doubts.

"Aren't you coming up?"

Seeing the fleeting look of surprise on Huo Yuhao's face, she quickly added, "It seems like absorbing the medicinal power will take quite a while, right? I was thinking that sitting on the bed would be more comfortable..."

Finally, Zhu Lu raised her eyes and gave him a captivating look: "And I want to be closer to you, is that alright?"

Huo Yuhao's throat bobbed slightly. Although he kept telling himself that he was there to help Zhu Lu absorb the medicinal power, the beautiful scenery before him, coupled with the hint of timidity in her words, made it impossible for him to refuse.

After a long silence, he asked softly, "Should I take off my clothes?"

"Ah, either way is fine..."

Zhu Lu said, as if deceiving herself, her tongue seemingly tied in knots, "But it's best to take it off, so you don't get your clothes wrinkled..."

"it is good."

As the words fell, a rustling sound reached Zhu Lu's ears, making her lower her head somewhat embarrassed. She pretended to be calm as she examined the crystal bottle in her hand, which was filled with the shimmering light of pearls.

Hmm, this crystal bottle is truly a crystal bottle...

She muttered to herself, keeping her eyes straight ahead, until the other side of the bed slightly sank, and Huo Yuhao's gentle voice came to her ears again.

"alright."

Her body trembled slightly, and she subconsciously looked up, only to meet those deep blue eyes so close to hers.

「!?」

The unexpected scene made her pupils shrink slightly, and before she could speak, she felt a warm touch on her lips.

"Well……"

Zhu Lu's body stiffened, and her hands instinctively pressed against Huo Yuhao's chest, but it was as if all the strength in her body had been drained away in an instant, leaving her completely powerless.

Caught off guard, she fell backward uncontrollably, and was pinned down on the bed by Huo Yuhao, who did whatever he wanted to her.

For no apparent reason, a look of confusion flashed in her eyes, and she inexplicably had the feeling that she was dreaming.

"It's not a dream."

As if he could glimpse her inner thoughts from her eyes, Huo Yuhao opened his mouth, carefully sensing her expression, and asked softly.

"May I?"

"……Um."

Zhu Lu responded in a barely audible voice, "Anything you like is fine, um..."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Before she could finish speaking, she felt a gentle pinch on her vulnerable spot, and her voice immediately changed as if she had been electrocuted.

Suppressing the strange feeling, she tried to open her eyes wide, which seemed to be veiled in mist, and her voice came out with hot breaths.

"In exchange, can you... um, continue kissing me like you did before?"

Huo Yuhao's heart fluttered, as if an omnipotent god were generously granting the wishes of a believer. He leaned down again and captured the other's lips with his.

The two were entwined in each other's arms, and the crystal bottle slipped limply from Zhu Lu's hand, lying quietly in a corner of the bed, witnessing the crazy act that was taking place.

After a long while, Huo Yuhao picked it up again and handed it to Zhu Lu, who had unknowingly become completely naked.

"Drink your medicine first, I'll help you absorb it."

Zhu Lu took the bottle with slightly rapid breathing, opened the stopper, and immediately a refreshing medicinal fragrance filled the room.

She took a deep breath, looked up at Huo Yuhao, and asked with a hint of anticipation.

"Are you going to do what you did for Sister Nan Nan?"

How did you know about this?

Huo Yuhao was taken aback: "Did Sister Nannan tell you?"

"No……"

Zhu Lu lowered her head and said somewhat embarrassedly, "A few days ago, when Sister Xiaoya and Sister Nannan were discussing this matter, they forgot to close the door properly, and I accidentally overheard them when I went back to my room."

"..."

Huo Yuhao rubbed his forehead, then glanced meaningfully at the tightly closed doorway.

In the corridor outside the room, the three furtive figures had unknowingly multiplied into five.

After overhearing the conversation inside, the three of them turned their heads at the same time, staring strangely at Jiang Nannan, who was almost too embarrassed to face.

As for the only one who didn't look at Jiang Nannan, it was naturally her best friend, Tang Ya, who was the culprit who caused all this by forgetting to close the door properly.

Seeing her best friend become the target of public criticism, Tang Ya felt embarrassed and had no choice but to stand up for her and take her side.

"Ahem, to be honest, it wasn't just Nan Nan; I also received help from Yu Hao while absorbing the pills."

Upon hearing this, the one who reacted the most was not Xiao Xiao or Nan Qiuqiu, but Wang Dong'er, who had barely uttered a word throughout.

As for the reason, it was naturally because when she used the Qiankun Creation Pill to condense her soul core for the second time, she also did some embarrassing things with Huo Yuhao, half-heartedly.

Originally, she felt somewhat ashamed whenever she thought about this, after all, such a serious matter as absorbing pills had been turned into this mess by her and Huo Yuhao.

But as she saw that her best friend Zhu Lu was about to encounter the same thing as her, and even Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya confessed one after another, she suddenly felt as if she had found a close friend who was "a fellow sufferer in the same boat", and her whole world became clear.

So we're all the same!

Then she was relieved.

However, this scene left Xiao Xiao and Nan Qiuqiu dumbfounded.

No way, so this is how you all absorb pills?!

The thought that they hadn't even absorbed the pill yet and might encounter something similar in the future made them exchange a glance and swallow hard.

Nan Qiuqiu, in particular, felt a sudden chill when she recalled the hideous outline she saw in the moonlight that night at the Earth Dragon Gate.

Can that thing really go in?

Or should we do what we did last time and ask my mom for some guidance?

Just as she was lost in thought, a soft exclamation suddenly drew her attention back.

"It seems there's no sound coming from inside."

"Those two are definitely doing *that* in secret! Yuhao likes to mute the room around times like this."

Just as everyone was discussing this, a door in a room deep in the corridor suddenly opened, and Jiang's mother walked out, still sleepy-eyed.

Upon seeing the suspicious group of people, she was first startled, and then asked with some confusion.

"What are you guys doing?"

As she spoke, she glanced at the room where they were gathered, her confusion growing.

This isn't Huo Yuhao's room, is it?

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally all turned to Jiang Nannan, waiting for her to give her mother an explanation.

"Mom, we wanted to talk to Zhu Lu about something, but she seems to be asleep. We're discussing whether to try again tomorrow."

"I see."

Since the matter didn't involve Huo Yuhao, Jiang's mother didn't think much of it. She nodded and walked downstairs, saying, "It's getting late, you should all get some rest."

Everyone responded, and only after watching the other person go downstairs did they exchange glances.

"What do we do now?"

"What else can we do? If we can't eavesdrop anymore, we'll just go to sleep. By the way, how many days do you guys think Zhu Lu needs to stay in bed?"

"About three days?"

I guess two days.

"I think it will take at least a week."

An invisible spiritual force surged from Huo Yuhao's forehead, isolating the room from outside sounds.

After doing all that, he looked at Zhu Lu beneath him again, and for a moment he felt that the white light was dazzling and he didn't know where to look.

"So what do you think... do you want to cultivate in this way like them?"

As he said this, Huo Yuhao's heart beat inexplicably fast.

Although it wasn't the first time I'd experienced something like this, and although I'd already gotten the definite answer from the other person's behavior, the process of waiting for a reply still made me a little uneasy.

"Um"

With another soft hum, Zhu Lu silently poured the medicine into her mouth and swallowed it all. Then, she quietly hooked her legs around Huo Yuhao's lower back and gently pressed them against Huo's head, which was already quite impatient.

hiss--

After taking a deep breath, her eyes glistened with tears, and she spoke with a seductive gaze.

"Come on in."
