In Douluo, All the Goddesses Collapse Chapter 27

"N-No need, Sister Ling Yuan, don't mention it." Su Ruoxi hurriedly waved her hands.

After all, she was a Titled Douluo. Facing someone like that, Su Ruoxi felt immense pressure.

After the brief introductions, Wu Xing shifted the topic to her. "What happened to you before this? How did a dignified Titled Douluo end up so badly injured?"

"This..." Ling Yuan hesitated. She had come to Heaven Dou City under the Pope's orders to capture Tang San.

As an elder of Spirit Hall, she naturally could not casually reveal such matters to outsiders.

"If it's inconvenient to say, then forget it." Seeing Ling Yuan's expression, Wu Xing did not insist on finding out.

"It's nothing much. I was following the Pope's orders to capture Tang San, but I never expected a powerful Titled Douluo to be protecting him from behind the scenes." After considering it for a moment, Ling Yuan ultimately told him.

She felt there was no need to hide it from the Diary Owner. After all, she still wanted to build a good relationship with him.

Even if the Pope learned of it afterward, she probably would not blame her.

"So that's how it was." After hearing her explanation, Wu Xing immediately understood how she had been injured.

Seeing that Wu Xing seemed to know something, Ling Yuan asked, "Do you know that Titled Douluo?"

"Yes. He's Tang San's father, the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao." Wu Xing nodded.

"Clear Sky Douluo." Ling Yuan's pupils contracted. No wonder she had been completely unable to fight back against that gray-robed man, despite both of them being Titled Douluos.

It seemed she would not be able to complete this mission.

There had always been differences in strength between Titled Douluos. Furthermore, Tang Hao had once severely injured the previous Pope. Even Yue Guan and Gui Mei together had been suppressed by him. How could she possibly handle him?

Seeing Ling Yuan fall silent, Wu Xing asked, "What are you planning to do after you recover from your injuries?"

"Return to Spirit Hall and report this matter to the Pope." Ling Yuan answered without hesitation.

Wu Xing was not surprised by her decision, though he was somewhat surprised that she seemed different from how she had been portrayed in the original work. She did not seem like someone greedy for merit and prone to rash advances.

Then why had she been so impulsive during the attempt to kill Da Ming Er Ming in the Star Dou Great Forest?

Could it be because she was an original anime character, so she had been killed off by the plot and her intelligence had been lowered?

That was not impossible, but it would be such a pity for such a gorgeous, seductive mature beauty.

Seeing that Wu Xing had asked one question and then said nothing more, Ling Yuan asked curiously, "Is there something wrong?"

"No." Wu Xing shook his head. Still, since she was his diary friend, he felt it was necessary to remind her. "Try not to get involved in matters concerning the Child of Fortune in the future."

"Why?" Ling Yuan could not make sense of his words. However, remembering that he knew the original course of events, she could not help asking, "Do you know something? For example, my ending?"

As expected of a Titled Douluo, she had immediately guessed from Wu Xing's warning that something might happen to her.

"Yes. According to the original plot, you would be killed while hunting the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape in the Star Dou Great Forest. By 'killed,' I mean dead." Wu Xing answered honestly.

Ling Yuan frowned upon hearing that. "What does that have to do with Tang San?"

"Of course it has something to do with him. In the original work, the soul rings of those two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts belonged to him." Wu Xing smiled.

Although Xiao Wu and Tang San had developed a conflict and would likely split apart later, he was still the protagonist of this world, protected by fortune. Who knew what absurd things might happen?

Ling Yuan was slightly stunned. After a moment, she seemed to think of something. Her slender hand gently brushed the hair beside her ear behind it, and she said with endless charm, "Then if I truly encounter misfortune one day, you wouldn't just stand by and watch me die, would you, Wu Xing?"

"Uh..." Seeing Ling Yuan's alluring gesture and the flirtatious look in her eyes, Wu Xing could barely take it.

The woman before him was incomparable to Ning Rongrong. That little witch had not yet matured, while this woman before him was fully ripe. There was simply no comparison between them.

When Su Ruoxi saw Ling Yuan deliberately casting seductive looks at her man, she was stunned as well. Yet rather than feeling jealous, she was incredibly surprised.

Ling Yuan was a Titled Douluo, yet she was seducing her man. It gave Su Ruoxi an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

Even a Titled Douluo could cast aside her status to seduce Wu Xing, while she was the first woman he had acknowledged. How could Su Ruoxi not feel proud?

This Japanese Mature Beauty, Please Calm Down

Seeing the Diary Owner's embarrassed appearance, Ling Yuan's lips curled slightly. This guy was rather different from how he acted in his diary. Where had his bold ambition to embrace all the beauties in the world gone? Where had his youthful arrogance gone, when he had proclaimed that he would take in the Pope, mother and daughter, master and disciple alike?

Why had all of it vanished? A little teasing from her had made him shy. How was he supposed to accomplish his grand cause in the future?

He was the classic king of talking big: lustful in heart but timid in action. In his previous life, he would have been called a keyboard warrior.

Naturally, Wu Xing had no idea what Spirit Kite Titled Douluo was thinking. The reason he acted like this was because their current strengths were unequal. If it had been a little witch like Ning Rongrong teasing him like this, would he dare to lay his hands on her directly?

A young horse pulling a big cart, mother-daughter double servings, the legacy of Cao Wei—those were all basic moves.

"Ahem, Ling Yuan, you must be joking. As long as you take proper precautions, how could you possibly encounter misfortune?" Wu Xing coughed deliberately to ease the awkwardness on his face. But if she wanted to freeload off him, that was absolutely impossible. She had to add... no, offer herself to him.

Ling Yuan found it amusing and tossed him another flirtatious glance. "What if, though?"

Her soft, sultry voice struck again, and Wu Xing shuddered, especially because she had added that cutesy "sister" voice.

As expected of a fully mature beauty, and even more so of a Titled Douluo. Her methods of seduction were beyond what ordinary soul masters could achieve. He could not withstand them at all.

Feeling ashamed inside, Wu Xing answered, "Ling Yuan, can we stop joking around?"

He still clung to what little resolve he had left. No freeloading—there had to be tangible benefits.

Seeing the Diary Owner beginning to waver, how could Ling Yuan give up? She continued teasing him. "Big sister isn't joking. I'm serious. If I encounter misfortune someday, you can't just watch me die."

"Of course, big sister won't make you help for nothing. I'll agree to one request from you—any request."

After saying that, Ling Yuan winked at Wu Xing with a look that said they both understood.

"Hiss..." Wu Xing sucked in a breath. He could not take it, absolutely could not take it. A mature beauty like this was truly deadly.

Still, he was not made of clay. He was, after all, a man who had walked through a garden of countless flowers. He countered, "Then does this time count?"

Ling Yuan froze for a moment, then chuckled. "It counts. Of course it counts. Big sister keeps her word, but you'll have to wait until I recover. You wouldn't want my injuries to worsen because of my wounded body, would you?"

"..." Wu Xing was dumbfounded. In their first exchange, he had suffered a complete defeat. This Japanese online friend, please calm down.

Realizing that his verbal sparring was utterly incapable of dealing with the mature beauty before him, Wu Xing changed the subject. "Ling Yuan, you haven't eaten all day, have you? Should I ask Ruo Xi to get you some food from the cafeteria? You need to restore your strength and replenish your nutrition."

"Are you really that eager to have big sister?" Ling Yuan rolled her eyes at Wu Xing, her gaze overflowing with seductive charm.

"..." Wu Xing could only cry out inwardly, Heavens, earth, all-powerful readers, please take this beauty home and torment her yourselves. I can't handle it. I really can't handle it.

Seeing Wu Xing look utterly defeated, Ling Yuan laughed softly and stopped teasing him. "Now that you mention it, big sister is a little hungry. Then I'll have to trouble little sister Ruo Xi."

"N-No trouble at all." Su Ruoxi hurriedly shook her head and was about to get up to go to the cafeteria, but Wu Xing stopped her the next second.

"Ruo Xi, I'll get the food. You keep Ling Yuan company."

Without waiting to see whether Su Ruoxi agreed, he got up and left. He needed to calm himself down.

"Pfft." Watching Wu Xing flee in a panic, Ling Yuan could not hold back her laughter. This little man was rather adorable.

Even Su Ruoxi smiled gently as she watched her man flee the room as though escaping for his life. It was the first time she had seen Wu Xing so embarrassed.

When he had faced Dugu Bo, who was also a Titled Douluo, he had looked completely calm and composed.

The moment Wu Xing stepped out of the room, he let out a sigh of relief. A Titled Douluo was still a Titled Douluo. As one of the few female Titled Douluos in the Douluo world, which one of them was not a shrewd person? When it came to seducing someone, they did it with effortless ease.

He was certain that the way she had been casually killed off in the original work had definitely been a plot kill by Xuanji Niangniang.

Of course, he also understood that the things she said and did were half true and half false. She was trying to close the distance between them. After all, everyone had a different way of interacting, and her approach was undoubtedly a quick way to build rapport.

Although he looked somewhat embarrassed, he did not feel unhappy at all. Instead, he had an indescribable sense of anticipation.

After arriving at the academy cafeteria, Wu Xing asked one of the kitchen aunties to pack several dishes into lunch boxes before returning to the room.

When he pushed open the door, he was slightly surprised to see Su Ruoxi and Ling Yuan chatting and laughing together. He had not expected this woman to win over even his girlfriend, who was looking at her with sparkling eyes full of admiration.

"See if this suits your taste." Walking over to the bed, Wu Xing placed several lunch boxes on the bedside table and opened them one by one.

Ling Yuan glanced at Wu Xing and smiled. "Big sister is easy to raise. I'm not picky about food."

Her words carried a deeper meaning.

Wu Xing broke out in a sweat again. Easy to raise, my ass. You're a Titled Douluo, while I'm only a Soul Elder. Shouldn't you be the one keeping me instead?

"In that case, eat first. I'll update my diary." After handing her the chopsticks, Wu Xing spoke.

"Alright." Ling Yuan did not continue the topic.

Seeing that, Wu Xing said nothing further. He sat down to one side, opened the diary panel, and began writing today's entry.

Good afternoon, beauties. We meet again.

As Wu Xing updated his diary, Ling Yuan immediately received a notification from the Diary Instance.

Without thinking much about it, she opened her Diary Instance and began reading the words that appeared while eating her food with great interest.

Yesterday, I disappointed everyone. The quality of diary rewards has absolutely nothing to do with word count.

The great rewards from the previous few days had purely been a matter of luck. As expected, the system didn't have that kind of bug.

The hope of obtaining better rewards through word count has been shattered.

But that's fine too. I don't need to deliberately pad out the word count anymore. After all, padding it out while making sure you don't think it's watered-down filler takes a lot of brain cells.

"..." All the diary holders who read this were instantly speechless.

This guy claimed he did not want them to think it was filler, but how many words had he already written at the beginning? Had he gotten to the important part yet?

The rewards! What they wanted to see now were the rewards! Just reveal them already! Even if the rewards were bad, they still wanted to know.

Ling Yuan felt the same. She withdrew her gaze from the Diary Instance, looked up at Wu Xing, and rolled her eyes at him. "Wu Xing, just talk about the reward already."

"What reward?" Wu Xing knowingly asked.

He naturally knew what she meant, but how could he possibly tell her?

Alps Lollipop? What kind of joke was that? That damned system was clearly up to no good.

He was still considering letting Ning Rongrong, that little witch, taste the lollipop on his body. How could he let the damned system ruin that?

The Japanese Mature Beauty, Please Calm Down

"The reward you got yesterday." Ling Yuan could not help finding it amusing. Could this guy have received some shameful reward? Otherwise, why would he pretend not to understand?

Thinking that, she became even more curious about it.

"Aha, the weather is really nice today." Wu Xing looked toward the balcony and changed the subject.

Seeing her man acting like that, Su Ruoxi covered her mouth and laughed. Then she said cheerfully, "Sister Ling Yuan, Ruo Xi knows what reward my husband received yesterday."

"Hmm?!" Ling Yuan's eyes lit up. She immediately winked mischievously at Su Ruoxi, urging her to hurry and tell her.

Hearing his woman's words, Wu Xing stiffened before slowly turning his head. Good grief, he had nearly forgotten about this girl.

Su Ruoxi glanced at her man. Seeing that he was not angry, she secretly leaned close to Ling Yuan's ear and whispered something.

Ling Yuan was first stunned, then deeply puzzled. That was it? What was there to be embarrassed about?

Seeming to understand what Ling Yuan was thinking, Su Ruoxi whispered another explanation beside her ear.

In an instant, Ling Yuan's ears visibly turned red. Then she glared fiercely at Wu Xing and spat out a disdainful "Peh."

This guy! He really was still the same as before, not changed in the slightest. He could even connect those two things?

Wu Xing had not expected his woman to dare say anything out loud.

Of course, what surprised him most was that he had only gone out to get food, yet the two of them had become so close that they could talk about anything!

But when Ling Yuan spat at him, Wu Xing merely smiled and asked, "Then do you want to taste it?"

"Do you mean the real one, or the one on your body?" Ling Yuan did not care about Wu Xing's teasing at all and asked with a smile.

As she spoke, she did not forget to look toward a certain part of his body and lick her red lips.

"..." Wu Xing surrendered once again and simply stopped paying attention to this fully mature temptress.

Sorry, beauties. I was interrupted just now by a temptress, so the update fell behind.

Wu Xing could not confront her directly, but within the diary, this was his domain. He transformed into a keyboard warrior who could slay gods and destroy Buddhas alike.

"What temptress?" The women were all stunned as they watched the words appear after a long pause.

"Wu Xing, you're asking for death!" Ling Yuan nearly spat out the food she was chewing when she saw that latest line in the diary.

She might be a Titled Douluo, but many of the diary holders inside were stronger than her. Leaving aside Keisha, Willow God, and Ruthless Great Emperor, whom he had mentioned before, even the Pope herself was someone Ling Yuan had to treat with utmost respect.

If the Pope learned that she had secretly seduced the Diary Owner behind her back, would she have any good days ahead?

Wu Xing ignored Ling Yuan's coquettish complaint and continued writing.

This temptress is also a diary holder. Oh, and she's a subordinate of the beautiful Dong'er—Spirit Kite Titled Douluo, one of Spirit Hall's elders.
