Douluo: Snatching Xiao Wu at the Start to Become a Cao Thief

As he spoke, he angrily grabbed a wooden stick and headed outside.

When he saw a group of armored soldiers carrying spears enter, he was so frightened that he immediately dropped the stick in his hand.

"Th-this... sir, wh-what are you doing?"

The waiter was so scared that he could barely speak clearly.

Seeing that he was merely a waiter, one of the soldiers at the front immediately pointed his spear at the waiter's throat.

"Don't move..."

"Behave yourself."

The waiter nodded stiffly. Looking at the spearhead less than five centimeters from his throat, he felt as though it could take his life at any moment.

His legs could not stop trembling.

"O-okay."

Seeing that the waiter was just a coward, the soldier said sternly, "I ask, you answer... understand?"

"Y-yes, yes, yes. Just don't kill me, sir. I'm a law-abiding citizen, I haven't committed any—"

"Shut up..." Seeing the waiter ramble on nonstop, the soldier drove an elbow into his stomach, making him shut up.

"I said I ask one question, and you answer one question. Cut the other nonsense."

Hearing that, he clutched his aching stomach and nodded painfully.

"Have there been any suspicious people here..."

"N-no."

"Then... has a noble girl come in here?"

Hearing that, the waiter was about to instinctively say no. But then he remembered the boy in the strange clothes who had come today. Not only had the boy asked him to buy skirts and other clothes for girls, but while he had been patrolling the hallway, he had heard a girl's soft moans coming from the boy's room.

The sobbing had been especially loud. He could hear it clearly even just passing by.

Seeing that the waiter was taking so long to answer, the soldier frowned at him.

"Speak... If you dare lie to us, I'll let you experience—"

Before the soldier could finish, a shout came from upstairs.

"Lord Garen, I found the young lady!"

As the voice rang out, Garen, who had been sitting at a nearby dining table, abruptly stood up and pulled the Greatsword from behind his back.

"Who is it... Secure the room. Don't let anyone escape."

The commotion and the sound of the door being smashed open also woke Wen Xuan, who had been enjoying Yuumi's breast service.

Yuumi woke right after him.

The couple got up and saw that the door had been smashed to pieces, with a soldier standing in the doorway.

Wen Xuan's pupils contracted sharply.

"Oh no... They found us so quickly."

"What's wrong, Husband?" Yuumi did not know why Wen Xuan was reacting so strongly.

However, Wen Xuan had no time to explain. Instead, he looked toward the Gatekeeper's Grimoire beside Yuumi's pillow.

"Wake up, Grimoire. Take us out of here."

The awakened Grimoire was still a little groggy. Although it was a sentient grimoire, it still needed rest.

But upon hearing its master's command, it quickly flew up.

It then opened itself. Although it did not know where Wen Xuan wanted to go, it had a mind of its own and opened a legendary passage to Ionia.

As the Grimoire flipped to the page bearing Ionia's symbol, an entrance appeared on the bed.

Lux, who had been sleeping hazily, also heard a familiar voice.

The moment she opened her eyes, she saw her Brother Garen running toward her with the Greatsword in hand.

Unable to speak, she could only make muffled whimpering sounds.

"Little sis..." The moment Garen entered, he saw her disheveled hair and tattered clothes. Her thighs were covered in red marks and handprints. In the very next second, Garen lost all reason.

Looking up, he saw two silhouettes behind the bed curtains.

Through the curtains, Garen saw Wen Xuan's face.

"Damn it, you dog thief! You dared to kidnap my sister! You're all going to die today!"

The moment he saw Lux tied up and lying on the floor, Garen flew into a rage and charged toward Wen Xuan and Yuumi's bed without a second thought.

He did not even notice Lux's tearful gaze.

At that moment, Yuumi sensed an intense killing intent. Seeing that the passage had opened, she grabbed Wen Xuan's little hand and led him inside.

Just as Garen swung his sword, Wen Xuan stretched out a hand and grabbed Lux, who was lying beneath the bed.

He brought her into the legendary passage with them.

Boom!

Garen's Greatsword crashed heavily onto the bed, smashing it to pieces.

But Garen did not notice that Wen Xuan was no longer there.

"Dog thief... You dared to kidnap my sister. Let's see where you can run now."

Garen had never expected Wen Xuan, a little brat, to lay hands on his young sister. What he had not expected even more was that Wen Xuan could escape right in front of him.

Once the dust settled, Garen saw that there were no corpses of Wen Xuan and the others in the ruins.

When he turned around, even his sister Lux was gone.

"Optimization" Lux ### "Lux? Lux! Little sis..." Garen looked around, but there was no sign of his sister. He fiercely smashed the Greatsword into the ground.

He did not know how Wen Xuan had taken his sister away, but Garen would never forgive him.

"All of you... Go search! Search all of Demacia! Post portraits of that child and the young lady throughout the streets. Have the entire city search for them. Anyone who reports their whereabouts will be rewarded with rank and wealth."

Early that morning, all of Demacia was thrown into chaos. The common folk woke to find soldiers everywhere and numerous wanted notices posted around them.

The wanted notice naturally featured Wen Xuan's handsome portrait, while Lux was the subject of the bounty notice.

However, Wen Xuan, who had already been transported elsewhere, knew nothing about any of it.

Ionia.

After a wave of dizziness, Wen Xuan released Lux, whom he had been carrying by the hand.

"That was close... I nearly got silenced by that brat Garen."

"Husband, why did you take such a risk to bring that woman with us? You almost got hurt yourself."

Yuumi's hand trembled as she held Wen Xuan's.

If she had not pulled Wen Xuan inside just then, her man would have been smashed to death by that huge sword.

Even though she knew Healing Magic, Wen Xuan's body could not withstand a blow from that Greatsword, especially with Garen in such a rage.

"It's fine, it's fine." Hearing Yuumi's concern, Wen Xuan pulled her tightly into his arms.

"This girl is special. She is..."

Wen Xuan stopped halfway through his sentence.

Remembering that Lux had been called the City-Destroying Witch, and had nearly wiped out all of Demacia by herself, with more than half its people dying because of her...

"What is it, Husband? What's so special about this girl? Doesn't she just have a little magical talent..."

Yuumi stopped halfway through her sentence.

She could feel an immense surge of magic power churning within Lux's body.

"Husband... Is this why you wanted to capture her?"

Yuumi had not expected a human little girl to possess such vast magic power within her body.

Even Yuumi felt inferior by comparison.

She finally understood why her Husband had captured Lux.

But Yuumi had clearly misunderstood. Yuumi thought Wen Xuan had captured Lux to seize the magic power within her body.

That was not the case at all. How would Wen Xuan know how to seize it? He simply coveted her extraction chance, that was all.

Seeing Yuumi's expression that said, I understand, Wen Xuan froze for a moment.

Sure enough, the woman he had chosen was different. Not only could she help during exercise and assist in a fight, she could instantly understand whatever he was thinking too. Not bad at all.

Thinking that, Wen Xuan could not help kissing Yuumi's pink lips.

"Alright, let's find a place to stay first."

As he spoke, he carried Lux into his arms.

He headed toward a populated area with a reluctant Lux in tow.

Lux struggled nonstop along the way, leaving Wen Xuan with no choice but to "Optimize" her.

After seeing that the "Optimization" had succeeded, Wen Xuan untied the rope around her and pulled the Underwear from her mouth.

The Underwear stained with Lux's fluids was disdainfully tossed onto the ground by Wen Xuan.

The "Optimized" Lux did not mind at all. Like an obedient girl, she picked up Wen Xuan's Underwear and used it as a hair tie, tying it around her hair.

She tied her golden hair into a single ponytail.

In the "Optimized" Lux's memories, she had been Wen Xuan's little fangirl from the day she was born. As time passed, she eventually became Wen Xuan's concubine.

Yuumi, by his side, was naturally the principal wife.

Though that was only on Runeterra. His real principal wife was still on Douluo Continent.

Yuumi was somewhat shocked by how suddenly obedient Lux had become, but she did not ask any questions.

When Lux tied her hair up with Wen Xuan's Underwear like a hair tie, Yuumi could no longer sit still.

"Husband... Why does that woman get one of your personal rewards? I want one too..."

Her tone was full of jealousy.

Hearing that, Wen Xuan, who had been walking ahead, subconsciously turned around.

The next second, Yuumi hugged him around the waist from behind, her little hand reaching into his Underwear.

"Don't, don't, don't mess around. What do you even want that for?" As soon as he said that, he saw Lux staring at him with an infatuated expression.

Then he saw her hair tied into a single ponytail with his Underwear, and Wen Xuan immediately understood.

He gently pressed down on Yuumi's fingers as she tried to continue downward.

"Husband will do it himself... No need for you to move a finger, Wife."

"I knew Husband loved me most." Hearing Wen Xuan agree, Yuumi quickly took a deep bite at his neck, leaving a faint hickey behind.

Feeling the dampness on his neck, along with Yuumi's unique fragrance, Wen Xuan did not mind.

After all, her body was covered in traces of his attention. What did this little thing count for? It was merely a bit of fun between husband and wife.

Under Yuumi's eager gaze and Lux's longing gaze, Wen Xuan untied his waist and handed the pair of original-flavor Underwear he had worn for a day to Yuumi.

Then, under Yuumi's coquettish and adorable gaze, Wen Xuan failed to resist and was forced into a round of poker. Lux fanned the flames from behind as well.

By the time Barrett was pulled out, Yuumi was tidying her slightly messy golden hair.

She also tied the Underwear around her hair, becoming a little loli with the air of a mature married woman.

Sett: What Did You Say About My Mom? ### After tidying themselves up, Wen Xuan led Yuumi and Lux to a small town.

Compared to the war-torn Ionia from before, this town was much better off. Beastmen and humans alike moved about in an orderly fashion, buying and selling goods.

But what caught Wen Xuan's attention most was a circular structure in the town.

It looked like a Roman gladiatorial arena.
