"Wanwan, how did you get this Million-Year Spirit Ring?"

Qian Renxue looked at Bai Wanwan's proud little expression and asked curiously.

Bai Wanwan recalled her Martial Soul, sat on Qian Renxue's lap, and slowly said, "Sister, you probably won't believe this. To be precise, I wouldn't have believed it myself if I hadn't experienced it firsthand."

"That Million-Year Soul Beast voluntarily sacrificed itself to me."

"Though its circumstances were rather special. It had been trapped and was constantly releasing its essence for other beings to absorb. My appearance was its salvation, so it sacrificed itself to me."

Bai Wanwan briefly explained the matter to Qian Renxue.

Although Bai Wanwan had concealed certain details, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's general situation was more or less as she described. After all, he really had been trapped and constantly releasing his essence as nourishment for the other Fierce Beasts.

After hearing Bai Wanwan's explanation, Qian Renxue gently stroked her hair, an unconscious smile appearing on her lips.

Qian Renxue was sincerely happy that Bai Wanwan had obtained a Million-Year Spirit Ring.

A 100,000 Year Spirit Ring was already an exceedingly rare existence.

As for a Million-Year Spirit Ring, calling it something one could encounter only by chance and never seek out would not be an exaggeration. Even encountering a Million-Year Soul Beast was an extremely difficult matter.

"Salvation?"

"Wanwan, you were also my salvation during my childhood."

There was a faint smile in Qian Renxue's voice.

Bai Wanwan froze, but before she could react, she felt a soft touch on her lips.

"Mm~"

Bai Wanwan's eyes gradually closed as she leaned into Qian Renxue's embrace.

After a while.

Qian Renxue slowly raised her head, pinched Bai Wanwan's cheek, and took out something resembling ginseng. It was entirely blood-red, with raised patterns on its surface forming the image of a soaring five-clawed dragon. She placed it before Bai Wanwan.

"This is the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng you wanted."

"The Clear Sky Sect sent someone to deliver it some time ago."

Qian Renxue spoke softly.

"Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng."

Bai Wanwan quietly examined the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng before her, but did not reach out to take it. Instead, she took Lovesick Heartbreak Red from her Storage Bracelet.

"Sister, this is Lovesick Heartbreak Red. It can revive the dead and regrow flesh upon bones. When paired with the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, they complement each other."

As Bai Wanwan spoke, she gently bit the tip of her tongue and sprayed a mouthful of crimson blood onto Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

After swaying gently a few times, the red flower atop Lovesick Heartbreak Red drifted down and landed in Bai Wanwan's hand.

"Sister, keep both this Lovesick Heartbreak Red and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng."

"They might come in handy someday."

Bai Wanwan placed Lovesick Heartbreak Red into Qian Renxue's hand.

"Does it matter which of us keeps them?"

Qian Renxue smiled and directly put away both Lovesick Heartbreak Red and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

After all, it made no difference who kept them.

"Oh, right, Sister, I have another surprise for you."

A sly glint flashed through Bai Wanwan's eyes.

"A surprise?"

"What surprise?"

Qian Renxue seemed intrigued and looked at Bai Wanwan curiously.

"Ahem~ It's a surprise that can increase your strength."

"I've already tried it, and it definitely works."

"But~"

Bai Wanwan paused, watching Qian Renxue's expression.

"What do you want?"

Qian Renxue smiled and reached out to ruffle her hair.

Naturally, she understood what Bai Wanwan meant.

"It's not that I want anything~"

"Sister, how about you listen to me tonight?"

Bai Wanwan looked at Qian Renxue expectantly.

"Oh~"

Qian Renxue drew out the word and gave Bai Wanwan a meaningful look.

"Don't worry, Wanwan. Sister will definitely satisfy you."

At those words, a gleam flashed in Bai Wanwan's eyes.

Woohoo~

Success.

Mm~ She could be an Angel Knight for once, too.

Seeing the change in Bai Wanwan's expression, the smile on Qian Renxue's lips grew even more pronounced.

What she had said was that she would satisfy Bai Wanwan, not that she would agree to Bai Wanwan's request. There was a huge difference between the two.

"Ahem~"

"Sister, the surprise I mentioned that can increase your strength is called a Soul Core."

Bai Wanwan truthfully told Qian Renxue how to condense a Soul Core.

Listening to Bai Wanwan's explanation, Qian Renxue nodded thoughtfully.

"I'll try condensing a Soul Core tomorrow as well."

Qian Renxue raised her eyes to check the time.

It was already nearly evening. The reason she would try condensing a Soul Core tomorrow was naturally because there was something very important to do tonight.

Qian Renxue calmly glanced at Bai Wanwan in her arms.

Mm, tonight's business was very important.

"Alright."

Bai Wanwan agreed and checked the time as well.

She and Qian Renxue had the same thought: there was something very important to do tonight.

As for condensing a Soul Core, it could wait one more night.

The two looked at each other and smiled in unspoken accord, like two little foxes with a trace of cunning in their smiles.

After a while.

The sky gradually darkened.

Qian Renxue lifted Bai Wanwan from her lap and headed toward the room.

Though Bai Wanwan, held in Qian Renxue's arms, felt that something was slightly off, she did not think much of it. After all, it would soon be time for her to call the shots. Letting Sister hold her for a little while longer was no big deal.

Tonight, I have to perform well.

Bai Wanwan silently made up her mind.

Once inside the room.

Qian Renxue casually closed the door, then placed Bai Wanwan from her arms onto the bed.

The gauze curtains around the bed slowly fell.

Second Day.

Early morning.

A somewhat exhausted Bai Wanwan sat up in bed, covered her body with a blanket, and pouted her cherry lips, looking very unhappy.

"Damn it, I'm so mad."

"Sister actually played a word game."

"I ended up being the one bullied again."

Looking at Qian Renxue, who sat cross-legged on the bed and had begun trying to condense a Soul Core, Bai Wanwan quietly clenched her fair little hand.

After watching Qian Renxue for a while.

Bai Wanwan ultimately did not disturb her Soul Core condensation. Instead, she silently lay down and covered her entire body with the blanket, gradually drifting into sleep.

The journey back from Suotuo City had already left her weary from travel.

Then she had been exhausted all night, so naturally, she needed to get some proper rest now.

As for being bullied again.

She was used to it by now, so it was not a major problem. When she got the chance later, she could just bully Sister back.

Mm~

In the future, she had to pay special attention to word games, lest Sister use another one to trick her again.
