In Douluo, All the Goddesses Fall Apart

"Nothing happened. Thank you, Brother Wu." The three women thanked him again.

"Since that's the case, I'll go shopping with Ruo Xi and the others first," Wu Xing said with a smile, seemingly implying something.

"Shopping?" Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up slightly when she heard that. Then she said, "Brother Wu, Xiao Wu and Zhu Qing are also visiting Heaven Dou City for the first time. How about we go together?"

"This..." Wu Xing glanced at Su Ruoxi beside him.

He had deliberately mentioned going shopping because he wanted the Three Beauties of Shrek Academy to suggest it themselves. After all, it would not do for him to invite them proactively; they might think he had ulterior motives. But before agreeing, it was only reasonable to ask for his woman's opinion.

Naturally, Su Ruoxi would not refuse, much less embarrass her man. She let him decide.

Dugu Yan, on the other hand, was somewhat displeased. She knew those Three Beauties of Shrek Academy would not let such an opportunity slip away.

"Alright, then. Let's go have a look around together," Wu Xing said with a smile.

In an instant, their group of four had expanded into a group of seven.

"Brother Wu, where are you planning to go?" Ning Rongrong asked familiarly.

"Let's first visit the auction house. I heard Heaven Dou City's auction house is quite impressive, and I haven't yet seen the grandeur of this world," Wu Xing decided after thinking for a moment.

Naturally, no one objected. Though they said they were going shopping together, they were really accompanying him more than anything else.

Along the way, Dugu Yan had seemed likely to be the most lively one, but after Ning Rongrong joined them, she became the chattiest, constantly clinging to Wu Xing and asking him one question after another.

Su Ruoxi was better off. She held Wu Xing's arm, and as the girlfriend he had acknowledged, she had nothing to fight over. No matter what, she was still his first woman. That alone gave her an enormous advantage.

This was also where her intelligence lay. She knew how outstanding her man was, and that women gathering around him was inevitable. All she needed to do was appear generous. That way, Wu Xing would only cherish and dote on her even more.

Dugu Yan, on the other hand, was so irritated her teeth itched. That Ning Rongrong from Shrek looked harmless enough, but she was full of schemes. Taking advantage of her young age, she kept calling him Brother Wu in the sweetest voice.

Little slut. Dugu Yan curled her lips and cursed her inwardly.

She had a straightforward personality. When it came to scheming and playing palace intrigues, she definitely could not compare to Ning Rongrong, who had grown up in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Among these women, Ye Lingling was the only one who could contend with her. Yet she was the kind of girl with a calm temperament. Even if she truly wanted to fight for him, she would not show it in public.

Wu Xing was no fool. Faced with Ning Rongrong's desperate attempts to display herself, he had noticed long ago. He simply did not mind it; he even enjoyed seeing it.

Ning Rongrong's Seduction

The Heaven Dou Auction House was majestic and imposing, built in a circular shape.

Since both Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong had been here before and were familiar with the place, they quickly arranged bidding credentials for everyone.

"Brother Wu, let's go in." After handing the credentials to Wu Xing, Ning Rongrong impatiently grabbed his hand and led him inside.

Watching Ning Rongrong get ahead of her again, Dugu Yan behind them was practically about to explode with anger. She had never seen anyone so shameless.

The interior of the auction house was not as resplendent and luxurious as expected. Instead, it was simple and clear, giving off an extremely elegant feeling.

After putting on the masks provided by the attendants, the group smoothly entered the auction hall. The auction had already begun, and quite a few people filled the surrounding seats, holding up placards to bid on the items displayed on the high platform below.

Wu Xing and the others found seats and sat down, watching with great interest.

There were many auction items of all sorts, though most were related to Soul Masters.

After watching for a while, Ning Rongrong, who had claimed the seat on Wu Xing's other side, could not help asking, "Brother Wu, have you seen anything you like?"

As she spoke, she winked at him meaningfully.

Wu Xing looked at her, one brow lifting slightly. He was somewhat surprised by her bold behavior.

He could clearly feel her hand resting against his thigh.

Because there was a small table between each seat, with a placard on top for guests to place bids, any little movements below it would go unnoticed unless someone looked carefully.

Wu Xing discreetly glanced toward Su Ruoxi. Seeing that she showed no unusual reaction, he looked at Ning Rongrong with amusement. Then he directly placed one hand beneath the small table.

Next, he grasped her hand and answered calmly, "Not yet. Let's keep looking."

Ning Rongrong paused slightly, but she did not pull her hand back. Instead, she lightly extended her slender fingers and scratched Wu Xing's palm.

Hiss... This girl really knows how to play.

Wu Xing sucked in a breath. The thrilling sensation spread through his body. He truly had not expected the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to be so daring, seducing him in public.

Since he was not losing out anyway, Wu Xing became bolder. Holding her little hand, he shifted it slightly.

In an instant, he felt Ning Rongrong's body tremble softly, and her pretty face flushed.

Wu Xing had initially thought Ning Rongrong would be frightened by his actions and pull away. But interestingly, he discovered that this girl was even more open than he had imagined. She had no intention of withdrawing her hand at all.

Interesting. It seems this girl has completely thrown herself into this. She's determined to make me take her.

Wu Xing thought teasingly.

Ning Rongrong leaned against the small table, her pretty face faintly red.

She had not expected Wu Xing to be so bold either. She had noticed that her little hand seemed to have touched something indescribable.

This made her already active thoughts grow even more restless.

She wanted to win Wu Xing over and become his woman, not only because he was the Diary Owner, nor because of the benefits he could bring to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but because Wu Xing himself was handsome, had a perfect temperament, and met every one of her standards.

If he had been ugly, like some kind of monster, then even if he were the Diary Owner, even if he represented endless opportunities to her, it would have been incredibly difficult to make her take the initiative to seduce him the moment they met.

That might not have been entirely accurate, but it was not far from the truth.

The auction continued. Everyone chatted intermittently about the auction items, completely unaware that Wu Xing and Ning Rongrong were enjoying their little thrill.

When others asked him questions, Wu Xing answered absentmindedly. With the small table blocking them, they would not be discovered as long as they did not stand up.

"Brother Wu, I'm going to the restroom. Want to come?"

Just as Wu Xing was playing with Ning Rongrong's little hand, he suddenly noticed something unusual with the Diary System. When he opened it, his eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Ning Rongrong.

This girl really could not wait!

Fortunately, it was a private message. The Diary Instance was quite useful too, automatically shielding personal privacy. Otherwise, Dugu Yan and the others, who also had Diary Instances, would surely have noticed something.

Ning Rongrong pulled back her hand and tossed Wu Xing a flirtatious look. Only after making his heart itch did she inform the other girls, rise from the table, and head toward the restroom at the back.

Watching Ning Rongrong gradually walk away, Wu Xing became restless. What man could resist something this stimulating?

At least, he could not remain unmoved. But he could not stand up immediately either, so he could only pretend to proactively discuss the auction items with the girls.

After keeping this up for a while and feeling that enough time had passed, he whispered something into Su Ruoxi's ear, then stood and headed toward the back.

Su Ruoxi nodded and watched her man's retreating back. Her eyes flickered, but she said nothing.

"Brother Wu, are you coming?" Ning Rongrong's message arrived again.

Wu Xing had just left his seat when he saw the flashing message, leaving him rather speechless. How had he not noticed in the anime before that she was this kind of woman? She was nearly on par with those manipulative gold-diggers from his previous life.

"Coming." Wu Xing replied, quickening his pace considerably.

Following the signs, he soon reached the restroom. From a distance, he saw Ning Rongrong already waiting outside the women's room.

"Brother Wu, why are you so slow?" Ning Rongrong asked coquettishly when she saw Wu Xing finally arrive.

Wu Xing rolled his eyes irritably. This girl was even more impatient than he was.

"You think I'm as horny as you?" After saying that, Wu Xing naturally wrapped an arm around her waist, lowered his head, and moved to kiss her little mouth.

"Don't, Brother Wu. It would be bad if someone came," Ning Rongrong said, face flushed and breath hurried, pressing down on Wu Xing's hand.

Wu Xing chuckled inwardly at her resistance. Now that things had reached this point, she wanted to pretend to be innocent with him? Did she think he would let her off?

The hand supporting the back of her head exerted a little force, and their lips instantly met.

"Mm..." Ning Rongrong let out a soft moan, unable to say anything more.

No one knew how long it lasted. Only when their breathing became uneven did Wu Xing finally release her lips.

Looking at Ning Rongrong, who was gasping for breath, flushed all over, and had eyes full of longing, he wanted nothing more than to charge into battle.

But in the end, he restrained himself. The two of them being in the restroom together was already suspicious. If they went any further, setting aside whether there was enough time, they would be playing with fire. The other girls would definitely notice something was wrong.

"Brother Wu, now that we've done this, you have to take responsibility for Rongrong," Ning Rongrong said sweetly, her eyes filled with affection after catching her breath.

"That depends on your performance," Wu Xing replied with a wicked grin.

Ning Rongrong hesitated for a moment, then blushed as she removed Wu Xing's hand, which had been misbehaving on her body.

There's hope.

Wu Xing's eyes lit up, and he got his wish, thoroughly indulging his hands.

Though the tender lotus bud had only just revealed its pointed tip, in this setting, it felt exceptionally wonderful.

A Hundred Million Martial Souls

"Alright, hurry back first."

Reluctantly withdrawing his hand, which still carried a young girl's fragrance, Wu Xing hurriedly said this.

Although he was lustful, he knew they could not stay too long. There would be plenty of time and countless opportunities in the future, so there was no need to rush.

Ning Rongrong glanced at Wu Xing coquettishly with a red face, adjusted her slightly disheveled dress, and then asked, "Brother Wu, Rongrong counts as your woman now, right?"

"Mm." Wu Xing nodded, then said, "Go back quickly. It would be bad if Xiao Wu or Zhu Qing found out."

After receiving his confirmation, Ning Rongrong's face filled with joy. She reached up, looped her arms around Wu Xing's neck, rose onto her toes, and kissed him before finally leaving in satisfaction.

"This little devil." Watching Ning Rongrong's departing figure, Wu Xing savored the lingering sensation.

He had originally arranged for the Three Beauties of Shrek Academy to come along because he wanted to first become familiar with them, then slowly make his move. Who would have thought Ning Rongrong would be even more proactive than him?

But thinking about his own circumstances, the behavior of this little devil from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was not surprising. Whether it was his identity as the Diary Owner, the Resurrection Technique, or his future potential, how many women could resist such temptation?

If he had not considered that he needed to maintain a good image before Xiao Wu and put a massive green hat on Tang San, he would have taken her just now.

"Rongrong, what's wrong?"

Though Ning Rongrong tried her best to hide it after returning to her seat, there was still a blush on her face. Xiao Wu, sitting beside her, found that quite strange.

"My stomach feels a little uncomfortable. Maybe I squatted for too long," Ning Rongrong casually made up a lie.

Xiao Wu found that rather strange. Shouldn't an upset stomach make someone's face pale or green?

Though she found it odd, she did not think much about it, much less connect it to Wu Xing. After all, the time between them leaving had only been a few minutes.

A moment later, Wu Xing also slowly returned and sat back down.

The moment he sat down, he sensed something unusual from Su Ruoxi.

"Ruo Xi, did you see any auction items you like?" Wu Xing smiled faintly and discreetly grabbed her delicate hand.

It seemed his girlfriend was not blind either. She had noticed the affair between him and Ning Rongrong long ago, but she simply had not exposed it.

This deeply moved Wu Xing and made him want to cherish her even more. With such a considerate girlfriend who neither fought nor competed, did not get jealous, and even helped cover for him, how could he possibly let her down?

Feeling her man's strong hand, Su Ruoxi smiled and shook her head. "Not for now."

"Mm. If you see something you like, bid on it. We're not short on money now," Wu Xing said with a nod.

He now had several hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins, which counted as a modest fortune. Even here, he truly did not need to worry about not having enough money for ordinary items.

Su Ruoxi responded, but nothing that interested either of them appeared afterward.

By the time they left the auction house, it was already noon.

After eating together at a hotel, they headed to the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena.

The atmosphere here was even more heated than at the auction house. The place was packed with voices and excitement, making one's blood boil.

"Brother Wu, is your martial soul Blue Silver Grass?" Watching the Soul Fighting Master matches below through the floor-to-ceiling glass, Ning Rongrong seemed to think of something and could not help asking.

Ning Rongrong's question aroused Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's curiosity, and they both looked over. Even Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were no exception.

They had not thought carefully about it before, but now that they considered it, it seemed quite strange. Wu Xing had previously said in the Diary Instance that he had obtained a heaven-defying martial soul.

But Blue Silver Grass did not seem like a heaven-defying martial soul, did it? Even with three Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, it did not seem like something worth bragging about in the Diary Instance.

Seeing all the women looking at him, Wu Xing gave a mysterious smile. "Secret."

"Just as expected." Seeing Wu Xing put on that mysterious expression, the girls all wore looks that said they had known it.

"Could it be that you also have Twin Martial Souls, Brother Wu?" Ning Rongrong's eyes glimmered.

Wu Xing chuckled and answered inscrutably, "Something like that."

"Could it be Triple Martial Soul?" Unable to suppress her curiosity, Dugu Yan finally spoke up as well.
