Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 63 - Deep Night

"I'm going to take a nap... You know, maintaining contact with undead creatures all the time is really tiring..."

Qian Lingyun yawned listlessly, her eyes vacant, and without waiting for Qian Renxue to speak, she tossed out a sleeping bag and crawled inside. Soon after, even breathing could be heard coming from inside the sleeping bag.

"..." Qian Renxue pouted helplessly, picked up a long stick and poked at the fire, her beautiful purple eyes watching the sparks flying up and down, lost in thought.

As the sun sets, the starry night sky is a sight rarely seen during the day, and countless luminous insects fly out from the grass and trees, dancing gracefully in the night.

Deep in the vast forest, the occasional melodious calls of animals could be heard.

The moon was high in the sky, and its pure white light shone down from above, covering everything on the ground with a thin veil of white light. Qian Lingyun, who was in a deep sleep, suddenly crawled out of her sleeping bag.

"What's wrong?" Qian Renxue asked curiously, but Qian Lingyun didn't answer her. She just stared blankly in a certain direction, then forced an excited smile onto her face. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, jumped up from the ground, and said, "Sister, we're rich!"

"What?! What happened?!" Qian Renxue looked at Qian Lingyun with a blank expression, seemingly not understanding what had happened.

"Didn't I just send out a few skeleton riders hunting?" Qian Lingyun gestured excitedly in a certain direction and whispered, "They've run into big trouble!"

"Why are you so happy even though you're in big trouble?!" Qian Renxue's small face was filled with a big question mark.

"They encountered a powerful soul beast." Qian Lingyun swallowed excitedly and said, "A 50,000-year-old plant-type soul beast, its attributes are extremely rare."

"A 50,000-year-old plant-type soul beast?" Seeing Qian Lingyun sharpening her sword, Qian Renxue didn't hesitate to pour cold water on her enthusiasm. "A 50,000-year-old soul beast's strength is equivalent to an eight-ring Soul Douluo. And plant-type soul beasts can even be considered to possess a domain near their roots. With our current level, going to cause trouble for it is just plain stupid!"

"That's true..." Qian Lingyun's lips twitched slightly, but she still accepted this cruel reality. After issuing the retreat order, of the large group of undead creatures she sent out, only the Soul Emperor-level Death Knight returned empty-handed and in a sorry state.

Clearly, if the retreat order had been given any later, it would likely have perished there...

Seeing the pitted and corroded marks on the Death Knight's body, Qian Lingyun sighed softly, opened the gate to the undead, and sent it back.

"Looks like I'm going to go hungry tonight," Qian Lingyun said listlessly as she lay back down. She tossed and turned in her sleeping bag for a while before finally settling down.

"If you have dry rations but refuse to eat them and just tough it out, who can you blame?" Qian Renxue rolled her eyes, impatiently tossed the reheated dry rations to Qian Lingyun, and said, "Eat quickly, stop being so fussy."

"No, I don't want to eat! I want meat!" Qian Lingyun grabbed a corner of her sleeping bag, childishly covered her head with it, and rolled around on the ground.

"..." Qian Renxue was silent for a moment, then silently took off her belt and swung it around in her hand a few times.

Each whooshing sound of air being cut made Qian Lingyun, whose face was covered by a sleeping bag, shiver involuntarily.

"I'll count to three! One!" Qian Renxue's gentle tone carried an undeniable firmness, but the rebellious girl remained stubborn...

"two!"

When she counted to two, the gentle expression on Qian Renxue's face had vanished. A slight smile appeared on her lips, and her eyes were fixed on Qian Lingyun's exposed buttocks and back outside the sleeping bag. She also raised the leather belt above her head.

Wow!

Before Qian Renxue could carry out the family discipline, Qian Lingyun suddenly threw off her sleeping bag, sat up straight, and stuffed the dry food into her mouth.

The way they wolfed down their food showed they were extremely hungry.

"Isn't this edible? Why do you insist on making me argue with you?" Qian Renxue shook her head helplessly and put the belt back in its place.

She looked up at Qian Lingyun's chubby cheeks and handed her the water bag, saying, "Here, don't choke!"

"Hmph!" Qian Lingyun snorted coldly, her arrogant thoughts trying to persuade her to turn her head away, but her body instinctively took the water bag from Qian Renxue's hand, obediently drank a few mouthfuls, and then swallowed the dry food in her mouth with difficulty.

After barely managing to eat, Qian Lingyun lay back down, spitefully turning to her side, looking like she was ignoring him.

"Such a childish temper!" Qian Renxue sighed helplessly, rubbing her forehead, and lay down next to Qian Lingyun. Without waiting for Qian Lingyun's reaction, she put her arm around Qian Lingyun's waist.

Qian Renxue clearly felt that the moment she put her arm around Qian Lingyun's waist, the little girl's body stiffened for a moment, and then returned to its normal softness as her body temperature rose.

"Hmph, you little brat, I can't handle you!" Qian Renxue sneered inwardly, her fingers unconsciously sliding lightly across Qian Lingyun's waist a few times.

"Hey, are you even letting people get some sleep?"

With her body unusually sensitive, Qian Lingyun sat up abruptly, shoving Qian Renxue's arm off her waist, and said fiercely, "If you can't sleep, go for a walk, don't disturb my sleep!"

"Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore, alright?"

Seeing the little girl get angry, Qian Renxue could only laugh and cry at the same time, spreading her hands in front of her to appease her.

She had long since figured out Qian Lingyun's temperament; the standard was that she would be swayed by both soft and hard tactics with her, but not with others.

To put it simply, he's a tsundere who judges people based on their status and personality.

Regardless of whether it's through soft or hard tactics, Qian Renxue is definitely fine. As for the others, she can only say good luck to them!

After Qian Lingyun lay down again, Qian Renxue not only did not keep her word, but instead moved even closer. She hugged Qian Lingyun's slender waist from behind, rested her head on the back of her neck, and breathed her warm breath into Qian Lingyun's ear.

"Hey, haven't I been too nice to you? Don't go too far! If you keep this up... I'm going to lose my temper!" Qian Lingyun said fiercely, gritting her teeth as she suppressed the strange feeling.

"Stop fooling around, you're much warmer than the fire. It's cold at night, let me lean on you." Qian Renxue unconsciously increased the pressure on her hand.

"You have an angelic martial soul, possessing the attributes of holiness, ultimate fire, and ultimate light, and you're afraid of the cold!?"

Lost in thought, Qian Lingyun was forced to press her back against her chest, daring to be angry but not daring to speak out!

The next morning, Qian Renxue woke up and immediately jumped up with a somersault.

She stretched and yawned, moving her body around. Judging from her energetic appearance, she had obviously slept well last night. On the other hand, looking at Qian Lingyun's lifeless appearance, it was clear that she hadn't slept much at all last night!

"Oh, Yun'er, why do you look so listless so early in the morning?" Qian Renxue asked with a smile.

"You know perfectly well why you're asking!" Qian Lingyun glared fiercely at Qian Renxue, subconsciously touching her flushed cheeks.

This little gesture naturally didn't escape Qian Renxue's notice. She leaned forward, bent down, and took out her handkerchief to wipe Qian Lingyun's flushed face, chuckling, "Why do you look like a little kitten after waking up? Here, let me wipe it for you!"

"Don't give me that crap, I have my own hands." Qian Lingyun snatched the handkerchief from Qian Renxue's hand, wiped her face haphazardly a couple of times, then shoved it back into Qian Renxue's palm, saying unhappily, "Last night they made me eat dry rations, today I have to have meat! Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Qian Renxue stretched out her right hand, used her slender right index finger to lift Qian Lingyun's chin, and whispered, "Otherwise you eat..."

"You, you, you!"

Qian Lingyun swallowed hard, jumped up as if her hair had stood on end, and said angrily, "I'm not a cannibal, I don't eat..."

Then, she seemed to realize something, clutching the hem of her clothes, unable to utter a word for a long time.
