I'll Take the Gift, but I Absolutely Won't Do the Job!

"Sis, how are you feeling now?"

Li Mubai asked as he gently massaged the injured area.

The touch of its pure, jade-like skin is like that of soft, warm jade, making it irresistible.

So captivating, Li Mubai could only try to distract himself by talking.

Otherwise.

He was genuinely afraid that in a moment of impulsiveness, he might do something far beyond treating his injuries.

It's not that he lacks self-control.

He persevered in his cultivation without ever stopping until he became Titled Douluo. Such dedication, even if not as majestic as Mount Tai, at least makes him a stubborn rock.

However.

Even heroes have found it hard to resist the charms of beautiful women.

Even the invincible Lü Bu eventually succumbed to Diao Chan's charms, indulging in wine and women day and night.

Food and sex are human nature.

Food and sex are the most fundamental pursuits of humankind, and also the fundamental driving force behind social progress and rapid changes.

So.

What man could withstand such a test?

Lü Bu is no good, Li Mubai is naturally no good either.

"Forehead..."

"I was in pain just now, but now... um."

"It... it doesn't hurt anymore."

Sister Zhao blushed and didn't dare to turn her head to meet Li Mubai's gaze.

So embarrassing...

I had accidentally hummed a little out of nowhere.

The beautiful woman was filled with shame and indignation, constantly blaming herself in her heart.

But.

The warmth emanating from her thighs made her feel extremely comfortable.

It stirred up ripples across her heart, which had been dormant for many years, like a small pebble falling into a calm lake.

Li Mubai chose to ignore Sister Zhao's soft humming.

It's already awkward enough; if we say it out loud, wouldn't it just get even more awkward?

The best way to ease the awkwardness is to resolve the issue quickly and directly.

Immediately.

Li Mubai increased the output of his Soul Power.

The pressure on his hands unconsciously increased slightly.

"It feels so good, I have to hold back..." Sister Zhao tilted her head, her cheeks flushed, her eyes alluring, and her teeth clenched, afraid that if she relaxed even slightly, she would involuntarily let out a soft moan.

No way.

The bruises were located too close to that mysterious area.

Li Mubai's deliberate gentleness, and the warm current flowing from his hands into her skin, made her feel an unbearable itch and pleasure, and the fire in her heart burned even more fiercely.

"Alright!"

"Sis, do you still feel pain?"

A little while later...

Li Mubai then somewhat reluctantly withdrew his hand from her long, snow-white legs, and at the same time returned his Soul Power to his dantian.

Then he slowly stood up, looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and asked.

"Let me see..."

The strange sensation in her legs disappeared, making her feel completely relaxed.

Sister Zhao slowly turned her head back, a hint of shyness on her face.

I don't know why.

The disappearance of the large hands on her legs left her with Sisi sense of loss.

Zhao Shuran, how could you be so dissolute!

Sister Zhao reminded herself of this, and then suppressed all the strange feelings in her heart.

Hearing Li Mubai's question, she slowly extended a hand and then carefully placed it on the injured area.

Now.

The dark purple bruise had long since disappeared, replaced by skin that was snow-white with a hint of bright red, indistinguishable from the rest of her thigh.

I slammed my hand on the wound, but the expected pain didn't come.

Zhao Shuran grew bolder and reached out to gently pinch it again, but still felt nothing.

"It really doesn't hurt anymore!"

A smile appeared on Zhao Shuran's fair and rosy face, her tone full of surprise.

She had only intended to give it a try.

To everyone's surprise, Li Mubai's technique was so peculiar that he eliminated the bruise with just a few rubs.

This effect is dozens of times faster than taking medicine or applying ointment.

It's absolutely amazing!

A gentle breeze drifted in from the window, lightly brushing between a pair of long, snow-white legs.

A chill followed.

Shocked by Li Mubai's miraculous technique, Zhao Shuran suddenly realized that her skirt was still being lifted up and had not been lowered.

The thought of her conservative legs being exposed to a man's gaze filled her with unease.

Zhao Shuran's face immediately turned even redder, like a blooming red rose, so beautiful that Li Mubai was momentarily stunned.

Zhao Shuran noticed Li Mubai's gaze.

She immediately released her grip on the hem of her skirt.

The white gauze skirt, lifted up, fell down from her waist, concealing her long, straight, snow-white legs.

The skirt swayed in the breeze, creating a scene that sparked the imagination.

Seeing Zhao Shuran blushing, Li Mubai wisely turned his head to the side and quietly took a few steps back before leaving the kitchen.

Those legs were such a sight! I almost couldn't control my urges just now...

Li Mubai silently picked up his teacup, took a small sip to suppress the Evil Fire in his heart, and sat down on the soft gray-white sofa. He couldn't help but recall the beautiful scenery that had just passed.

It has to be said.

Sister Zhao is indeed a beauty, no less stunning than Xiao Qian.

Those beautiful legs and captivating fragrance made them irresistible.

And those towering mountains are something Xiao Qian can never reach.

If we only consider body shape...

Li Mubai had to admit that Xiao Qian was indeed slightly inferior.

However, each of them has their own unique charm.

In the kitchen.

After Li Mubai left, Zhao Shuran let out two long, delicate breaths.

The fire in my heart gradually cooled down.

Even though her thighs were already covered by the white veil, a strange sensation still emanated from them, making her feel unbearably hot.

I almost blurted it out.

"To be able to heal such injuries so easily, Brother Bai's strength has probably reached the pinnacle."

"No wonder he was able to return unscathed from the Wild Wolf Gang."

"Brother Bai is definitely a powerful Soul Master."

"Someone like that would never be interested in me..."

Zhao Shuran a bitter smile.

She had witnessed Li Mubai's reaction just now, and although she turned her head away, she had secretly observed it.

There was not a trace of desire in the other person's eyes.

His mind was entirely focused on her injuries.

Her skirt had been pulled up almost to her lower abdomen, revealing a large expanse of skin, but the other person didn't even glance at her twice.

Is she really that bad?

"Why..."

Zhao Shuran sighed softly, composing herself.

Just as Li Mubai was savoring his tea, Zhao Shuran quietly emerged from the kitchen.

"Brother Bai, thank you."

"If it weren't for your treatment, I don't know what I would have done."

Zhao Shuran stood by the sofa, looking at Li Mubai with gratitude. The flush on her face had subsided and returned to normal.

However, her eyes were still misty with tears.

"Sister, this is nothing to worry about."

Li Mubai smiled warmly and placed the teacup on the bronze wooden table.

"This is no small matter, Brother Bai, you've done your sister a great favor."

"I'll treat you to a meal in a few days when I'm done with my work."

A faint smile appeared on Zhao Shuran's face as she spoke, bending slightly to sit on the sofa.

"Sister, given our relationship, there's no need to say such things. Xiao Yu'er is practically my disciple, isn't it possible for me, as her master, to do something for her?"

Li Mubai said half-jokingly.

Zhao Shuran about to continue with the polite conversation when she was interrupted by the sound of the door opening.

Knock knock knock...

Is the Old Bear here?

Li Mubai turned his head to look at the gate.

My first thought was that the Old Bear who stood him up had arrived.

Zhao Shuran about to get up when Li Mubai called her back.

"Sister, please sit down, I'll do it."

Li Mubai got up excitedly, his face full of joy, and walked towards the door in a few quick steps.

I've been incredibly bored lately.

He waited every day for Old Bear to come to his door so he could invite him to the Mandarin Duck River at the east end of the city, and then catch a glimpse of the legendary beauty of the most stunning courtesan in the land.

Then it will alleviate the somewhat boring daily routine.

However.

Almost a week has passed.

My dear best friend, whom I'd been longing to see, didn't show up, not even uttering a sound.

After all, all of Old Bear's current pocket money was earned with his help!

We don't need to share the good times, but shouldn't we at least go to a brothel together to listen to music once?

But the Old Bear never appeared, as if it had vanished into thin air without a trace.

That old rascal, is he perhaps enjoying some solitary pleasure in a brothel, indulging in carefree revelry?

Li Mubai was filled with resentment.

Could it be that the other party has squandered all the money they won in the past few days and is now asking him to treat them to a meal at a brothel?

Squeak...

Having learned his lesson from the last time when he mistook someone for someone else and prematurely called out the name of the person he suspected, Li Mubai was smarter this time.

He will never make the same mistake twice!

And so.

He simply opened the door with a disgruntled expression, without saying a word.

The sounds of people flowing through the streets had vanished completely at some point.

Li Mubai glanced around.

The person outside the door.

It wasn't the Old Bear he had been longing for, but a figure he had never seen before.

A woman.

Dressed in a cool black outfit that covered her entire body, even her face was covered by a mysterious black fox mask, and a long black ponytail cascaded down her back like a waterfall, her hair reaching her waist.

An aura that kept people at a distance and carried a chilling presence emanated from him.

It makes one's heart tremble with fear.

The other party has killed people!

Li Mubai had keen senses; he could feel the intense killing intent that the other party had suppressed.

Her aura was so intense that the watchdog outside the neighboring house trembled and whimpered softly, seemingly terrified of the woman before it.

A person who possesses such a strong murderous aura must have taken at least ten lives on their hands.

And.

The figure also had a fox head pattern printed on its chest clothing.

It was just a glance.

Li Mubai then understood the identity of the person before him.

It was the intelligence agency under Bibi Dong's command.

Code name:

Black Fox!

Although Li Mubai had never personally seen the staff of this organization.

But I had also heard Old Bear mention it before.

This organization is an intelligence agency directly under the Pope, and its methods are extraordinary.

Those who can join this organization are among the strongest in the entire Spirit Hall.

Certainly.

This is excluding the Elder Hall and the Worship Hall.

After all, Soul Master who has not achieved the Titled Douluo is almost powerless when facing a Title Douluo. They are like a weak chick, completely at the mercy of the Titled Douluo.

But.

This does not mean that the people in this organization are not capable.

On the contrary.

The people in this organization are like cold, venomous snakes.

Even a tiger, the king of the forest, should be careful not to get bitten if it happens to pass by.

On the Douluo Continent.

Soul Master at the Titled Realm are still far too rare.

The Black Fox's deterrent power over sects without Titled Douluo in charge is self-evident.

This was like a sword hanging over the heads of their sects.

It could fall at any moment, and they have no way to stop it.

This terrifying organization has made irreplaceable contributions to the Spirit Hall's dominance over the Soul Master World!

Such a conspicuous person arrived at the door.

Li Mubai wasn't stupid, so he naturally figured out who had sent him.

What is it?

Li Mubai gazed calmly at the woman before him, whose true nature he did not recognize, his tone extremely composed.

"Elder Mubai, His Holiness the Pope requests your presence."

The newcomer looked at Li Mubai with reverence, cupped his hands in greeting, and bowed slightly with his head down.

Their attitude was extremely respectful!

Bibi Dong?

Li Mubai raised an eyebrow.

It had been almost a week since their last sparring session, and this woman hadn't come to see him.

Now, someone has suddenly been sent to inform him to go to the Pope's Hall.

This gave Li Mubai a sense of foreboding.

There are always treacherous subjects trying to harm me!

I didn't contact him yesterday, I didn't contact him the day before, but I have to contact him now of all times.

Li Mubai guessed.

That woman's visit to him today is definitely not for anything good!

"Lord Mubai Bai, this is a small gift that Her Holiness the Pope asked me to bring you. Pope said it's a token of her appreciation, so please don't refuse."

The aloof woman, dressed in black and masked, reached into her collar and pulled out a jade pendant.

It is slightly transparent, yet contains Sisi of bluish jade.

It was somewhat dazzling under the sunlight.

It looks really good...

Li Mubai's eyes lit up as he gazed at the small jade pendant.

Even though he didn't quite know how to appreciate this kind of thing, he couldn't help but find it very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

However, it happened very quickly.

Li Mubai's eyes narrowed immediately, and he became wary.

When will Bibi Dong give him a gift?

This is a classic case of a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—a clear sign of ill intentions!

Did that woman have some troublesome matter that required him to do hard labor?

No, no, that won't do.

You absolutely must not go to this Pope's Hall!

Li Mubai analyzed the situation in his mind, and then made a decisive decision.

Today, under no circumstances should I go to the Pope's Hall to meet that troublesome person.

Right now, all he wants to do is lie down and relax for a while.

Certainly.

If being able to spend money on watching dances at brothels every day can contribute a tiny bit to saving those innocent girls, that would be even better!

What national grievances, what responsibilities and righteousness...

He doesn't want to deal with these things for now.

Thinking about this...

Li Mubai's eyes darted around, and then he pretended to be sick and weak.

Looking at the girl before him, his voice was so weak it sounded like he was about to breathe his last:

"Young lady, I feel unwell today; I suspect I have contracted a serious illness."

"Cough cough cough..."

Li Mubai clutched his chest and coughed violently, as if it were truly a fact.

"Mrs., please go back and tell His Holiness the Pope."

"I am deeply ashamed that I cannot visit her at the Pope's Hall today."

"I'll accept this gift for now, and I'll help His Holiness the Pope with his problems in the future."

Li Mubai said.

Before the woman could react with surprise and suspicion, the jade pendant was snatched away with lightning speed.

Then he closed the door.

Bang!

The wooden door made a loud noise due to excessive force.

Outside the door.

Only the masked woman remained, looking utterly bewildered.
