The moment Tang San saw Bai Qinchen, he sensed a dangerous aura.
Moreover, in the past, Yu Xiaogang made them wear masks before competitions to protect them and prevent their ages and identities from being exposed.
"You wore masks, but they didn't," Bai Qinchen said, glancing at Flender and Yu Xiaogang.
"Oh, so that's how it is!" Tang San nodded lightly, not asking any more questions, but he still felt a strange sensation in his heart.
"Old Flender, why are you here?" Liu Erlong walked behind Bai Qinchen and asked Flender.
She didn't even glance at Yu Xiaogang, not because she still harbored feelings for him and was afraid of seeing him, fearing old flames would rekindle.
She simply felt there was no need to look at Yu Xiaogang; she knew without looking that he would surely still be that cowardly man wanting to escape.
Furthermore, she didn't want Bai Qinchen to misunderstand her; now, her heart belonged only to Bai Qinchen.
"Uh..." Flender was also a bit awkward. He had originally thought Liu Erlong would rush to Yu Xiaogang upon seeing him, and he had even prepared what to say. But Liu Erlong emerged and treated Yu Xiaogang like a stranger, which left him at a loss for words.
"Well, Erlong, won't you invite us in for a sit?" Flender changed the subject.
"Old Flender, you're joking. How big is my thatched hut? Can it fit so many of you?" Liu Erlong said with a smile.
The crucial point was that her and Bai Qinchen's 'battleground' hadn't even been cleaned yet. Once inside, they would definitely smell something.
Yu Xiaogang, seeing that Liu Erlong consistently ignored him, felt a sudden pang of bitterness in his heart. He clenched his fists tightly, then flung his sleeves and turned away.
"Xiaogang, you..." Flender wanted to stop him, but Liu Erlong held him back.
"Old Flender, don't bother with him. He'll be like this his whole life. What else can he do besides escape? Just a weak, useless man." A mocking expression curled at the corner of Liu Erlong's lips.
If Liu Erlong hadn't met Bai Qinchen, she truly would have rushed to Yu Xiaogang. But now that she had Bai Qinchen, her entire heart was with him. Seeing Yu Xiaogang's cowardly behavior now, she couldn't help but sigh, feeling fortunate to have met Bai Qinchen.
Yu Xiaogang hadn't gone far. After hearing Liu Erlong's mockery, his body stiffened, then he quickened his pace.
"I forbid you to speak of my teacher that way!" At this moment, Tang San, who was standing nearby, suddenly said in a deep voice.
Liu Erlong's delicate brows furrowed upon hearing this. She slightly raised her hand, about to teach Tang San a lesson, but Flender stepped in front of Tang San before she could. "Erlong, he's just a child. Don't take what he says to heart!"
Flender knew Liu Erlong's temper all too well; she was a typical powder keg, ready to ignite at any moment.
Now, these little ones, like Tang San, were his treasures. If they angered Liu Erlong because of this, it would be a huge mess.
Liu Erlong's anger didn't subside because of Flender's intervention. In fact, her delicate hair fluttered slightly due to her rage, showing the fury in her heart at that moment.
"Mistress, let it go. Little San didn't mean it." At this moment, Bai Qinchen, standing nearby, gently consoled her. As he spoke, one of his hands subtly patted Liu Erlong's shapely bottom.
Bai Qinchen had always been looking forward to the Shrek Seven Devils coming over to properly cultivate their relationship with Xiao Wu and the others. If Liu Erlong drove away Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, Xiao Wu and the others would definitely leave too. How else could he cultivate a relationship with them? So Bai Qinchen also stepped forward to stop Liu Erlong.
And to hide his relationship with Liu Erlong, in front of outsiders, Liu Erlong was his mistress.
Bai Qinchen's words immediately softened Liu Erlong's expression.
"Old Flender, for your sake today, I'll spare his life," Liu Erlong huffed.
Seeing Liu Erlong finally calm down, Flender secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes as he looked at Bai Qinchen.
Although Liu Erlong said it was for Flender's sake, as an experienced veteran, Flender could clearly see that it was entirely Bai Qinchen's doing.
One must know that when Liu Erlong got angry, even he and Yu Xiaogang couldn't stop her. Who was this young man? How could he extinguish Liu Erlong's anger with just one sentence?
Flender couldn't tell, but Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun could. The three of them were seasoned veterans of such matters. Although they had reined themselves in recently, they had done plenty of such things.
They had just seen Bai Qinchen pat Liu Erlong's shapely bottom.
Immediately, the three of them looked at Bai Qinchen with a hint of admiration.
That young man seemed to have called her 'Mistress' just now? And he actually dared to do such a thing? Could it be... The three of them exchanged glances, each seeing a trace of shock in the other's eyes.
"Little San, go check on your teacher first," Flender said to Tang San.
Although Liu Erlong said she would spare Tang San, it was still best for Tang San to leave now, and Yu Xiaogang indeed needed someone to look after him.
Seeing Tang San leave, Liu Erlong then looked at Flender and asked, "Old Flender, why did you come here? You didn't specifically bring that wimp for me to see, did you?"
"Alas! Erlong, you two..." Flender opened his mouth, then shook his head and said, "Never mind, let's not talk about you two. Do whatever you want!"
"Actually, this time we came to Heaven Dou City mainly to go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but..." Flender briefly recounted the Shrek Academy group's encounter at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"What?!" Liu Erlong was instantly enraged after hearing Flender's words. Her delicate hair, which had just settled, fluttered again, a murderous glint flashed in her eyes, and she said furiously, "What a Heaven Dou Royal Academy! Old Flender, say no more. You are my elder brother, and my academy is your academy. What I say might not count for much elsewhere, but here at Blue Tyrant Advanced Soul Master Academy, I call the shots. So, all of you stay here and treat this place as your own home."
Chapter 4: Threatening Xiao Wu
The people from Shrek Academy stayed as per the original plot, and Liu Erlong also arranged a welcoming dinner for everyone.
However, Yu Xiaogang and Tang San did not appear at the dinner table.
Xiao Wu looked towards the door with every bite, her expression filled with worry.
"Well, I'm full. I'm going out for a walk," Xiao Wu said, putting down her chopsticks and standing up. She then left the table and walked out.
The others didn't pay much attention and continued eating.
Bai Qinchen, meanwhile, quietly left while everyone was distracted.
Walking out of the dining hall, Bai Qinchen saw Xiao Wu under the moonlight, searching for something.
"Xiao Wu, are you looking for Tang San?" Bai Qinchen walked up to her and called out softly.
Xiao Wu didn't speak, continuing to walk forward.
"I think I just saw Tang San walk in that direction," Bai Qinchen said, pointing to a small path on the left.
Xiao Wu looked in the direction Bai Qinchen pointed, saw that it was a bamboo forest, and then started walking towards it.
Bai Qinchen followed behind Xiao Wu, a slight smile playing on his lips as he watched her back.
"Xiao Wu, you're a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, aren't you?" Bai Qinchen suddenly asked.
Xiao Wu froze for a moment upon hearing Bai Qinchen's words, then responded indifferently, "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Is that so?" Bai Qinchen chuckled lightly. "Let me guess, you should be the 100,000-year Spirit Beast, Soft Bones Demon Rabbit!"
"Who exactly are you?!" Xiao Wu spun around abruptly to look at Bai Qinchen.
Bai Qinchen shrugged his shoulders and said with a grin, "You don't need to know who I am. You only need to know that I know your identity."
"Why are you saying all this?" Xiao Wu stared at Bai Qinchen warily.
Bai Qinchen slowly walked towards Xiao Wu until they were very close, close enough to smell each other's scent. Bai Qinchen suddenly leaned in and whispered into Xiao Wu's ear, "Tang San probably doesn't know your identity, does he? What do you think his reaction would be if I told him your identity?"
"Would he continue to treat you as a sister? Or would he kill you and take your Spirit Bone and spirit ring?" Bai Qinchen said each word slowly, his voice very low, as if talking about something unrelated to him.
"No, he wouldn't. My brother wouldn't do that!" Xiao Wu said in a panic, a hint of fear showing in her eyes.
"Who knows? You know, 100,000-year spirit rings and Spirit Bones are not easy to find!" Bai Qinchen said leisurely.
"What do you want to do! Tell me!" Xiao Wu gritted her silver teeth, glaring fiercely at Bai Qinchen.
"Hahahaha!" Bai Qinchen burst out laughing, then suddenly wrapped his arm around Xiao Wu's slender waist, pulling her into his embrace. At the same time, his Dismal Hand of Soul Destruction pressed against Xiao Wu's shapely bottom.
"You..." Xiao Wu tried to struggle, but the moment Bai Qinchen embraced her, a tingling sensation spread through her body, giving her a strange feeling that prevented her from exerting much force.
"Xiao Wu, I want you. Be my woman, and I will protect you," Bai Qinchen whispered into Xiao Wu's ear, his voice deep and magnetic.
"You... you bastard, you... you wish!" Xiao Wu was filled with shame and indignation, her pretty face flushed crimson, her delicate body trembling slightly.
Looking at Xiao Wu's even more enchanting face due to anger, Bai Qinchen's breathing became increasingly rapid, and he couldn't help but kiss Xiao Wu's cheek.
"You!" Xiao Wu trembled all over, wanting to use all her strength to push Bai Qinchen away. However, Bai Qinchen's next words completely paralyzed her delicate body.
"If Tang San truly knew your identity, he would definitely choose to kill you without hesitation. After all, you are a 100,000-year spirit ring. Even Tang San would probably be very tempted!"
Bai Qinchen's voice echoed in Xiao Wu's ear.
Xiao Wu's delicate body trembled slightly, and the fear in her eyes deepened.
"Obey my words, and I can keep this secret from Tang San," Bai Qinchen's voice was still full of temptation. "Otherwise..."
Bai Qinchen hadn't finished speaking when Xiao Wu suddenly looked up at him and said coldly, "I advise you not to have ideas about me. At worst, I'll fight you to the death. If my brother and I can't be together, you won't get me either."
Bai Qinchen frowned, seeing Xiao Wu's strong attitude.
Although he had a spirit power of forty-one, his actual combat experience might not be better than Xiao Wu's. He wasn't sure if he could withstand her Eight-Stage Drop.
If things turned sour, not only would he not get Xiao Wu, but her identity would be completely exposed. Tang San would definitely not mind Xiao Wu's identity; instead, it would bring them closer.
And his relationship with Tang San and the Shrek Seven Devils would be irreconcilable. At that point, not only would Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing be difficult to obtain, but even Tang San's mother, Ah Yin, would probably be hard to approach.
He wanted Tang San to revive Ah Yin so he could meet this exquisite woman who could charm the fierce man Tang Hao into a state of divine soul confusion.
After pondering for a moment, Bai Qinchen made a concession and said, "How about this? I won't 'eat' you, and I won't tell Tang San your identity. How about you play with me?"
Bai Qinchen decided that he would gradually 'educate' Xiao Wu, slowly making her his own woman.
He believed that under his Dismal Hand of Soul Destruction, he would definitely give Xiao Wu an unforgettable night tonight, and she wouldn't resist him as much during the subsequent process of 'training' her.
"Play?" Xiao Wu looked at Bai Qinchen suspiciously, not understanding what this guy was up to.
Xiao Wu now understood some things, but she wasn't quite clear what Bai Qinchen meant by "play."
"Yes, just play," Bai Qinchen said with a wicked smile. "How about it? Do you agree?"
"Are you sure it's just simple playing?" Xiao Wu eyed Bai Qinchen suspiciously.
"Of course, we can start with the simplest games," Bai Qinchen laughed.
"Like what?" Xiao Wu's guard gradually lowered.
"How about I touch your legs?" Bai Qinchen smiled mischievously.
Bai Qinchen had coveted Xiao Wu's beautiful legs for a long time. He wondered what it would feel like to touch them?
Xiao Wu immediately took a few steps back upon hearing this, looking at Bai Qinchen in alarm.
"You can forget about it!" Xiao Wu crossed her arms over her chest, eyeing Bai Qinchen warily.
"My request is already very low. You know, I was just thinking of 'eating' you directly. If you don't even agree to this, then I can't help it. I'll just have to tell Tang San your identity," Bai Qinchen shrugged.
Xiao Wu's face flickered, clearly caught in a dilemma.
Bai Qinchen was not in a hurry. He just watched Xiao Wu quietly, seemingly certain that she would agree to his request.
"Alright... alright, you, you can touch them..." After a long while, Xiao Wu finally nodded and said weakly.
Chapter 5: Shy Xiao Wu
Xiao Wu's beautiful eyes were closed, her body stiff and straight, her face flushed crimson, and her little heart pounded non-stop. Her entire heart was in her throat.
Seeing Xiao Wu agree, Bai Qinchen gently guided her by her slender waist, slowly helping her to sit down.
"You, what are you doing?" Xiao Wu noticed Bai Qinchen's movements and stammered, not daring to open her eyes.
"Relax. If you don't sit down, how can I touch your legs? What if you fall later? I would be heartbroken," Bai Qinchen said gently, a faint curve on his lips.
Hearing Bai Qinchen's words, Xiao Wu relaxed slightly, but her body remained stiff.
Xiao Wu's beautiful legs were long and straight, her skin fair and delicate, glowing white like mutton-fat jade, exuding a lustrous sheen under the moonlight.
Bai Qinchen extended his hands and gently caressed Xiao Wu's two beautiful legs.
Finally, he touched them. The texture of these legs was smooth and tender, soft as if boneless, carved from ivory, smooth and delicate. Bai Qinchen couldn't let go.
The only minor flaw was that Xiao Wu, due to her nervousness, felt a bit stiff to the touch.
"Relax, just pretend I'm giving you a massage," Bai Qinchen consoled her. He continuously kneaded Xiao Wu's beautiful legs, while also subtly using his Dismal Hand of Soul Destruction, trying to make her relax.
"Mm..." Xiao Wu's cheeks were burning hot.
Xiao Wu's beautiful eyes were tightly shut, her pearly teeth biting her red lips, and the flush on her face deepened, as if she had received an immense stimulation.
Tang San had massaged her legs before, but never once had it been like this, making a strange feeling rise in her heart at this moment.
This feeling made Xiao Wu's heart race, her mind go blank, and her body feel a surge of heat.
"Damn it, what's wrong with me? Why have I suddenly become so sensitive?" Xiao Wu cursed inwardly.
Suddenly, she felt Bai Qinchen take off her shoes.
"You, what are you doing!" Xiao Wu quickly reacted, pressing down on Bai Qinchen's hands, preventing his further actions.
"When I said touching legs, that includes feet too!" Bai Qinchen chuckled.
"You!" Xiao Wu's pretty face flushed crimson with anger.
"It's already come to this. If you refuse, wouldn't you be at too much of a disadvantage?" Bai Qinchen said with a smile, "Don't worry, I said I wouldn't 'eat' you, and I won't."
Seeing Bai Qinchen say this, Xiao Wu immediately deflated. Her beautiful eyes flickered, and finally, she sighed, giving up the struggle and letting Bai Qinchen do as he pleased.
