No matter how Wu Xing roared or cursed, the system's voice never came. It left him utterly deflated.

"Hub... hubby, what's wrong?" Su Ruoxi asked nervously. She had been watching the previously cheerful Wu Xing's expression turn extremely unpleasant.

Hearing Su Ruoxi's words, Wu Xing finally came back to his senses. He took a deep breath to calm himself before shaking his head. "It's nothing, Ruo Xi. Don't worry."

"Really, hubby?" Su Ruoxi asked uncertainly.

She was worried that something had happened to her man and that he was keeping it from her because he did not want her to worry.

"Of course it's true." Wu Xing forced a smile, then added, "Ruo Xi, hubby will treat you to a Lollipop."

"Ah?" Su Ruoxi froze at first, then her face flushed crimson. She lowered her head shyly. "Okay."

After saying that, she gently lifted the blanket and slid downward.

"Ruo Xi, what are you doing?" Wu Xing was a little bewildered as he watched Su Ruoxi reach for his waistband. But he quickly realized what she meant and could not help laughing. "This time, the Lollipop I meant really is a Lollipop."

As he spoke, two Lollipops appeared in his hand.

Only when she saw the two strange candies in her man's hand did Su Ruoxi realize she had misunderstood. Her face was so red it seemed ready to bleed, and she was too embarrassed to face anyone.

"Hubby, you're teasing Ruo Xi."

Su Ruoxi kept lightly pounding Wu Xing's chest with her little fists. If it had not been for what her man had said last night, how could she have misunderstood?

"Haha." Seeing Su Ruoxi being so adorable, Wu Xing laughed heartily. His mood, which had been soured by the reward, instantly improved considerably.

Catching Su Ruoxi's little hands, Wu Xing smiled. "So, do you want one?"

"Yes." Only then did Su Ruoxi raise her flushed little face.

Seeing that, Wu Xing smiled and lifted Su Ruoxi, letting her lean against his shoulder. After unwrapping the plastic, he placed it into her sexy little mouth.

"Sweet!"

That was Su Ruoxi's first reaction.

"Hubby, where did you get this candy?" Su Ruoxi asked curiously, holding the Lollipop.

Wu Xing had no time to tell her about the Diary reward he had received.

Only then did Su Ruoxi understand why her man's expression had fallen earlier.

"Hehe." Su Ruoxi smiled knowingly and licked the Lollipop again.

Seeing Su Ruoxi actually dare to laugh at her man, Wu Xing shot her a fierce glare. Then, as if thinking of something, a mischievous look appeared on his face. "Is it good?"

"Mhm." Su Ruoxi nodded without thinking much about it.

"Then compared to the Lollipop on hubby's body, which one tastes better?" Wu Xing bared his fangs.

"..." Su Ruoxi's body stiffened. Looking at the man's wicked grin, she wanted nothing more than to burrow into his arms. Still, she forced herself to endure the embarrassment and answered, "The one on hubby's body tastes... tastes better."

Hearing Su Ruoxi's answer, Wu Xing laughed heartily again. What man would not like hearing his woman answer like that, even if he knew the words were not entirely believable?

Just as the two were flirting, the sound of shattering glass suddenly rang out. Then, a graceful figure stumbled in through the balcony...

(Guess who it is.)

Spirit Kite Titled Douluo

The woman wore golden armor, though it was somewhat tattered. Her face was pale, and traces of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.

The moment she burst in and saw Wu Xing, delight appeared on her pale face. But in the next second, the hand clutching her chest trembled, and she spat out a mouthful of blood before collapsing stiffly onto the floor.

Wu Xing and Su Ruoxi were both startled by the scene before them. They had been perfectly fine in their dorm room, flirting with his girlfriend, when an unfamiliar woman suddenly burst in, spat out blood without saying a word, and fell to the floor.

Anyone would have been dumbfounded. Anyone would have been startled.

Thankfully, they had not reached the stage of charging into battle with weapons drawn. Otherwise, he might have gone soft and been left with an indelible shadow for the rest of his life.

After the initial shock, Wu Xing quickly reacted. He hurried out of bed and walked over, reaching out to check her. He found that she still had some breath left, but it was weak, and she could die at any moment.

Realizing her condition, Wu Xing did not dare move her carelessly. If he messed up and got her killed, that would be a serious crime. After all, he had not studied medicine in his previous life.

"Hubby, who is this woman?" Su Ruoxi also got out of bed and came to Wu Xing's side. Looking at the unconscious woman, she hurriedly asked.

"I don't know her." Wu Xing shook his head. After saying that, he mobilized his Soul Power.

In an instant, a begonia flower martial soul appeared before him.

"N... Nine Heart Begonia." Su Ruoxi's eyes widened as she cried out in disbelief.

Just what kind of terrifying being was her man? She had already seen him display several martial souls before, yet now he even had Ling Ling's martial soul!

As the third soul ring lit up, the Nine Heart Begonia turned into specks of starlight and merged into the woman's body.

After doing that, Wu Xing still did not feel assured. He summoned another martial soul, and a brilliant golden scepter appeared. He used another healing soul skill on the woman lying on the floor.

Using the same method, after casting the healing technique, the brilliant golden scepter martial soul before him transformed into the Healing Scepter martial soul.

Su Ruoxi, standing beside him, was completely dumbfounded. Even the woman on the floor could no longer draw her attention.

No one knew how long had passed or how many martial souls he had switched through before Wu Xing finally stopped.

At this point, the woman's pale complexion had begun to recover under Wu Xing's seemingly inexhaustible healing soul skills, and her weak breathing had steadied. Clearly, under his treatment, her grave injuries had stabilized.

Only then did Wu Xing say to Su Ruoxi, "Ruo Xi, carry her onto the bed."

"Okay." Su Ruoxi nodded and, without thinking much of it, carried the woman onto the bed.

Without Wu Xing needing to say anything further, Su Ruoxi entered the bathroom after placing her on the bed. She took out a warm towel and began cleaning her up.

At the same time, a knock sounded from outside the room.

"Brother Wu, are you there? Did something happen inside?" Zhan Minghui's voice followed.

The woman crashing through the glass had made quite a commotion, drawing students from nearby dorm rooms to ask about it.

Wu Xing glanced at Su Ruoxi, who was wiping the blood from the woman's body, then called out to Zhan Minghui outside the door, "It's nothing. Ruo Xi and I were messing around, and I accidentally broke the window."

"Oh." Zhan Minghui paused upon hearing that, then said, "As long as everything's fine. I'll head back first, then."

"Okay." Wu Xing called back.

There was no more movement outside, clearly indicating that Zhan Minghui had already left.

As for accidentally breaking a dorm window, that was a trivial matter to students of their academy.

Heaven Dou Royal Academy was just that extravagant!

When Wu Xing returned to the bedside, Su Ruoxi had already finished cleaning the woman and had begun wiping up the blood on the floor.

Wu Xing looked at the woman lying on the bed. Although some color had returned to her face, he frowned slightly. This woman seemed somewhat familiar, as though he had seen her somewhere before.

His gaze moved from her face to the golden armor she wore, and an image suddenly surfaced in his mind.

"It's her!"

"An elder of Spirit Hall! And a Titled Douluo at that, Spirit Kite Titled Douluo!"

No wonder this woman had looked so familiar. She was an original character from the anime, one of the few female Titled Douluo.

Wu Xing had a deep impression of this female Titled Douluo. She was one of his favorite beauties. Although she had only appeared twice, once at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and once in the Star Dou Great Forest.

But he liked this kind of charming mature woman. It was just a pity that her greed for achievement had gotten her killed early.

Yet the plot had not even reached the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. How had this woman suffered such severe injuries already?

If not for his treatment just now, she might very well have died.

Even though she had not appeared many times, she was still a genuine Titled Douluo. There were very few people on the entire continent capable of leaving her on the verge of death.

Of course, one thing was certain: this woman should have a Diary Instance. After all, when she had barged in and seen him just now, delight had unconsciously appeared on her face.

He did not believe that a Titled Douluo like her, in such a heavily injured state, would reveal such an expression upon casually seeing a Soul Elder.

As Wu Xing pondered, Su Ruoxi had already finished cleaning the room and slowly came to his side.

"Hubby, don't we need to notify the Teaching Committee?"

She had heard the conversation between her man and Zhan Minghui just now. Clearly, Wu Xing did not intend to report this matter.

"No need. I remember who this woman is now." Wu Xing shook his head.

"Hubby, who is this sister?" Su Ruoxi asked curiously.

Wu Xing answered, "She's an elder of Spirit Hall, and she's also a Titled Douluo."

"What!" Su Ruoxi covered her mouth in shock. To a student like her, a Titled Douluo was an unreachable existence.

More importantly, Titled Douluo were omnipotent in her eyes. How could one be so gravely injured?

"Hubby, could you have mistaken her?"

Hearing that, Wu Xing looked at Su Ruoxi with amusement. "You're doubting me now?"

"N... no, it's just that this sister doesn't look very old. How could she be a Titled Douluo?" Su Ruoxi answered honestly.

Hearing Su Ruoxi's words, Wu Xing found it even more amusing. "Do you think all Titled Douluo are old men like Dugu Bo?"

Dugu Bo: Are you being polite?

"A... aren't they?" Su Ruoxi asked in confusion.

Her background was considered fairly good. She came from a major family in one of the kingdoms affiliated with the Heaven Dou Empire, but even so, she had only heard of Titled Douluo and had never seen one.

If not for the trip to Heaven Dou City, where she had seen Dugu Bo, she did not know whether she would have ever seen a Titled Douluo in her life.

"Of course not." Wu Xing shook his head and explained, "Once one reaches the Titled Douluo level, they can use their own Soul Power to preserve their appearance."

"T... that's possible too?" Su Ruoxi's mouth fell open in surprise.

"Of course. So, Ruo Xi, you need to work hard. If you don't want your beauty to fade so quickly, raise your Soul Power Level as soon as possible and become a Titled Douluo early." Wu Xing smiled teasingly.

Su Ruoxi's expression changed slightly. A Titled Douluo... could she really do it?

The Temptation of a Titled Douluo

The woman's injuries were severe, especially the ribs in her chest, several of which were broken. Even though Wu Xing had used many healing soul skills, it would not be easy for her to fully recover.

Seeing that the woman would likely not wake up today, Wu Xing left the room with Su Ruoxi and went to stay in her original dorm room, leaving this place to the woman.

Early the next morning, he went to check on the woman. She was still unconscious, but her face was no longer pale. Wu Xing did not stay long. After breakfast, he went to gather with the others.

Just like yesterday, the main focus was cultivating the team's tacit understanding and cooperation. The entire morning passed in Simulated Training.

The afternoon was free time again. After lunch, he returned to his room and was surprised to find that the woman who had originally been unconscious had awakened. She was leaning blankly against the headboard.

"You're awake." Wu Xing said with slight surprise.

When the woman saw Wu Xing enter, a hint of delight flashed across her face. Then she nodded. "Mm."

"How are you feeling now?" Wu Xing came before her, pulled over a chair, and sat down as he asked with concern.

"Much better. I should be able to fully recover in a few days." Although the woman's complexion was not particularly good, the smile she gave Wu Xing was extraordinarily alluring.

Combined with her pleasing, mature voice, Wu Xing, who already had a particular fondness for mature women, found it difficult to remain seated.

Of course, the woman's smile at Wu Xing was not deliberate. She simply possessed an inherently seductive temperament.

After calming his slightly quickened heartbeat, Wu Xing nodded. "Rest here and recover. No one will disturb you."

"Mm." The woman responded.

Seeing her agree, Wu Xing asked, "By the way, should I call you Ling Yuan, or something else?"

"Ling Yuan is my name. Just call me Ling Yuan." Ling Yuan replied with a smile.

Although she was many years older than Wu Xing and was also a Titled Douluo, he was the Diary Owner. Treating each other as equals was most appropriate.

Besides, addressing each other that way made them seem closer, did it not?

"Okay." Wu Xing nodded and asked, "You should know my name, right?"

"I know. The Diary Owner, Wu Xing." Ling Yuan looked at Wu Xing with a smile.

Sure enough, she had a Diary Instance. Wu Xing understood inwardly and pointed to Su Ruoxi beside him. "She's my girlfriend, Su Ruoxi. She helped clean your injuries."

"Hello, Sister Ling Yuan." Su Ruoxi greeted her somewhat uneasily.

Ling Yuan looked at Su Ruoxi and thanked her, "Thank you, little sister Ruo Xi."

The little girl was quite pretty. No wonder she had become the Diary Owner's woman.
