Clearly and Openly (Two-in-One)

On the Thousand Dreams Pavilion, a floor reserved only for courtesans, in a young lady's room, a man was bound and thrown onto the bed.

There are four courtesans at the Thousand Dreams Pavilion. Each of them sells her art but not her body, so no male customers have ever entered their boudoirs.

Only courtesans with pure hearts can attract more admirers and generate far more revenue than those in the sex trade.

"Mmm!"

The man was sweating profusely and writhed wildly on the bed. Even as he was thrown out of the Thousand Dreams Pavilion, the image of that woman was still etched in his mind.

He was actually bewildered. When he first saw the courtesan, he seriously doubted that he was seeing things.

After all, this was simply unbelievable for a man named Jiang Lin, Da Pao" and also known as " Si Neike "!

But then again, who would have thought that the girl who used to pick her toes would transform into a courtesan, her coquettish and delicate appearance making Jiang Lin question his life?

However, just as Jiang Lin was feeling disoriented and thinking he had really been possessed and was heading back to the inn to rest, Jiang Lin was tied up on the way.

Now, lying on the bed that exudes a faint fragrance, watching the woman sitting beside him scratching her fair and delicate feet without any manners, Jiang Lin has confirmed it! This is Bai Qianluo!

Besides Bai Qianluo, what other woman would so freely pick at her toes...?

"Hey kid! Don't yell, or I'll scream that you're trying to molest me, get it?"

"..."

Seeing Jiang Lin's silent expression, Bai Qianluo's lips curled up slightly. She loosened her collar, let her hair down, then hugged Jiang Lin Jiang Lin and flipped him over so that he was on top.

With her mouth slightly open and a deep breath in, Bai Qianluo made a gesture as if she was about to shout.

"Mmm!"

Just as Bai Qianluo was about to shout it out, Jiang Lin nodded frantically.

If this happened elsewhere, she could yell all she wanted without any consequences, since she'd be the one benefiting anyway.

But this is the Demon Race World. If I really "molested" Xue Luo of the Thousand Dreams Pavilion, I would become famous the next day, and my identity would definitely be exposed.

If the whole city finds out that I am Jiang Lin, that would be a real problem.

That's right.

Bai Qianluo patted Jiang Lin's head with satisfaction, and her long, snow-white, fluffy tail slowly detached from Jiang Lin body.

Sitting back down on the carved wooden stool, Bai Qianluo flicked her finger and tossed a pot of wine to Jiang Lin.

"Jiang Xiaozi, how was my dancing?"

Jiang Lin Jiang Lin the poison with his specially made silver needles and, after confirming that it was not poisonous, took a sip of wine to calm his nerves.

"Awesome! Incredible! Awesome!"

Bai Qianluo walked to Jiang Lin's side, and gently kicked Jiang Lin with her bare, pale pink feet. "You little rascal, you call yourself a scholar? Don't you have any good descriptions to offer?"

"No."

Bai Qianluo opened the window. "No!"

"Senior Bai's dance is simply: her movements scatter and gather like the wind, her singing voice is like a chime, melodious and lingering. A thousand times she moves to the rhythm, her delicate eyes like waves flowing into her hair!"

Jiang Lin quickly replied, and copied down the poem that Emperor Xuanzong of Tang had written back then!

"The dance moves scatter and gather again with the wind, the song's melody is like a chime, still melodious..." Bai Qianluo recited a line to herself softly, nodded in satisfaction, and turned around. "Hmm, although I don't understand what it means, it's definitely not bad!"

"..."

For some reason, Jiang Lin felt somewhat guilty towards Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. Not only had he copied the emperor's poem, but the emperor couldn't even understand it...

However, Jiang Lin looked at her under the moonlight, her long hair fluttering in the breeze.

Indeed, her dancing is very beautiful. Although it cannot compare to Wu Su Su's, it is still unique.

Of course, it would be even better if she didn't pick her toes like a rough old man from time to time...

But it seems that only in this way can she be Senior Bai, never hiding herself.

"What are you doing here, Senior Bai?"

Jiang Lin stood up and sat on the stool. He felt a strange sensation sitting on her bed; his heart kept racing. It must be the Charm Fragrance unique to the fox clan.

"Me? I'm here to see my lover, but finding someone requires funds, you know."

Bai Qianluo sat cross-legged in front of Jiang Lin, completely disregarding her appearance.

"Then I danced here, since there are a lot of people Dream-Eating Palace's opening period."

"Hasn't the senior been found yet?"

Jiang Lin knew that Bai Qianluo had someone she liked and had been searching for him for a long time, but had not found him yet.

"No..."

She leaped back onto the bed, her slender arms resting on her forehead, her long, white legs swaying up and down against the sheets, creating a fragrant breeze.

"Perhaps... he doesn't want to see me..."

"..."

Seeing her smiling face, yet her eyes betraying her loneliness, Jiang Lin was startled. He hadn't expected that this Senior Bai could be heartbroken over love...

"Probably not, it's just that you haven't found the right one yet, senior. I believe no man could truly bear to refuse you."

Bai Qianluo sat up, her allure undeniable in any posture, and smiled sweetly at Jiang Lin:

"Oh? Jiang Xiaozi, are you trying to comfort me? Have you fallen for me? That won't do. Putting aside Jiu Yi, my sister already has someone she likes."

Jiang Lin's brow twitched slightly, realizing he shouldn't have comforted her just now...

"By the way, Jiang Xiaozi, what are your tastes? I didn't expect you to have several heavyweight pig demons drinking with you. Do you actually like that kind of thing?"

"..."

Jiang Lin's forehead creased with annoyance.

Jiang Lin covered his forehead, feeling that this was a stain on his reputation for the rest of his life.

This isn't because Jiang Lin discriminates against the pig demon race, it's mainly because...

Indeed, he couldn't hold on...

Besides, since the money has already been paid, why waste it unnecessarily?

Seeing Jiang Lin's rare moment of frustration, Bai Qianluo couldn't help but smile, thinking to herself that it was a pity she was too surprised when she first met this kid and forgot to use the image-creating artifact to record it.

Otherwise, it would be really funny to show Jiu Yi how Jiang Xiaozi got squeezed into a meat patty by the three "plump" pig demons.

"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. Tell me, how did you end up in the Demon Race World? By the way, how's Jiu Yi? Didn't she come with you?"

Bai Qianluo changed the subject, expressing that she had many questions about meeting Jiang Lin.

"Jiu Yi, she..."

Jiang Lin scratched his head and carried Jiu Yi out of the One Ring.

Upon seeing the fluffy white Little White Fox on the table, Bai Qianluo's eyes lit up, and her mischievous hand slowly reached towards Jiu Yi on the table. "Is this Jiu Yi? So cute..."

Bai Jiu Yi was Bai Qianluo's arms, her fair face pressed against Bai Jiuyi's.

Seeing Bai Qianluo in such a state, Jiang Lin was speechless for a moment, but in Jiang Lin eyes, there was still a lot of guilt.

"Actually, one of my purposes in coming to the Demon Race World this time is to help Jiu Yi return to her original form."

Jiang Lin stood up, feeling guilty.

"Senior Bai, I'm sorry, I didn't protect Jiu Yi well."

Looking at Jiang Lin, who was bowing his head in apology, Bai Qianluo's eyes flickered as she placed the sleeping Jiu Yi on the bed. Bai Qianluo stood up.

Gently tiptoeing, the woman gently placed her two fair, soft hands on Jiang Lin's head:

"Jiang Xiaozi, tell me everything that happened."

"Um."

Jiang Lin sent out a Spiritual Power of Spiritual Power, which entered Bai Qianluo's brow.

After a short while, Bai Qianluo, having learned everything, paused slightly, her slender hand covering her mouth in disbelief, her eyes shining as she looked at Jiang Lin:

"You and Jiu Yi are now Marriage Thread?"

"Um."

Jiang Lin blushed.

"In short, after Wu Su Su and her master defeated Longya, Jiu Yi became the way she is now."

According to a friend of mine, the Moon Spring Water in the Dream-Eating Palace can help Jiu Yi regain her memories.

So I've come to Dream City to go to the Dream-Eating Palace.

"I see."

Bai Qianluo rested her chin on her hand as she looked at Jiang Lin. Although she had no intention of seducing him, the allure in her eyes was still overflowing, befitting a white fox.

"But Jiang Xiaozi, you can go to the Dream-Eating Palace if you want, but why come to the Thousand Dreams Pavilion out of the blue? You don't happen to be craving meat, do you?"

Cough cough cough!

Jiangling coughed a few times.

"I'm mainly here to gather information; I don't like Cat Girl at all."

"Intelligence? My sister knows!"

Bai Qianluo stood up, put her hands behind her back, and paced back and forth in the room.

Her fair feet stepped onto the ground one step at a time, her long, slender legs swaying in front of Jiang Lin's eyes – it was simply too much.

"The Dream-Eating Palace was born in Ancient Times. It was a Small World that was refined by Xiang Rong two thousand years ago."

Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore, it's too boring.

Still holding the fluffy little Jiu Yi with obvious affection, constantly rubbing Jiu Yi's head, Bai Qianluo looked at Jiang Lin:

"I really didn't expect Jiu Yi and you to be Marriage Thread for each other. You little rascal, tsk, what am I going to do? I'm even jealous."

"..." Jiang Lin was speechless for a moment, "Didn't Senior Bai tie the Marriage Thread with his sweetheart?"

"No..."

Bai Qianluo rested her chin on her hand, looking somewhat melancholy.

"I tried to trick him into holding my hand so many times, but he just wouldn't..."

"Why?"

Jiang Lin quietly took out a stack of peanuts and a plate of melon seeds, then poured himself a small pot of wine and listened to the story.

"He should just give up."

Bai Qianluo pouted and said, then grabbed Jiang Lin's melon seed plate with one hand.

Jiang Lin was actually quite resistant to it.

Because her little hands had just been picking at her toes...

"The Marriage Thread is a very mysterious spell of our White Fox Clan. Only we White Foxes know it; other fox clans do not."

Once the Marriage Thread is established, the woman cannot betray her beloved, otherwise she will suffer excruciating pain.

However, that's not the most important thing. After all, we White Fox Race are very loyal. Once we've set our sights on a certain Big Pig Trotter, we won't betray him.

The important thing is that once the Marriage Thread is tied, the other person's path becomes your path, and their fate becomes your own.

Take you and Jiu Yi for example.

Jiu Yi's cultivation will benefit you, but you don't need to benefit her. If Jiu Yi perishes, you'll be fine, but if you truly perish, Jiu Yi won't survive either.

You already knew all this, right?

"Hmm." Jiang Lin nodded. "I know, Bai Ling Bai Qiao told me about it; this Marriage Thread is quite unfair."

"Silly boy," Bai Qianluo gently tapped Jiang Lin's forehead, "Love is something that's neither fair nor unfair." "It's just a matter of mutual consent."

"However, there's something else I bet you definitely don't know, and those two little hussies, Bai Ling Bai Qiao, certainly don't know either."

Bai Qianluo looked at Jiang Lin with amusement.

"Whether it's the feedback from one's realm of cultivation or the mutual dependence on the Great Dao, these are all one-sided. But there is one thing that is mutual, and that is—emotion."

"Emotion?"

"That's right." Bai Qianluo lightly jumped back onto the bed, gently lay down, and crossed her legs. "Ouch, my shoulders and back are so sore..."

Jiang Lin frowned slightly, thinking, "You're not even as big as Wu Su Su so sour about..."

However, Jiang Lin dared not say it aloud, so he could only sit on the edge of the bed and give this Senior Bai a massage.

Jiang Lin's skillful massage techniques elicited repeated cries from Bai Qianluo. If Bai Qianluo hadn't cast Soundproofing Array, one would have thought something else was going on in the room.

"So-called emotions are simply—emotional connection."

Lying on the bed, Bai Qianluo comfortably.

"In other words, Jiu Yi can understand your emotions anytime, anywhere, and so can you."

Jiang Xiaozi, I know what you're thinking. Are you thinking, "Since Jiu Yi has Mind Reading, she can see your thoughts, so this ability is pretty useless"?

Actually, that's not the case.

Don't be fooled by Jiu Yi 'Mind Reading; at most, she can only understand other people's thoughts, but emotional connection is a different story.

Jiu Yi is able to understand your truest feelings and thoughts, for example...

Bai Qianluo lay on her side, her hair disheveled on the headboard, smiling as she looked at Jiang Lin. Her fox-like allure was truly ever-present.

"For example, how deeply you like a woman, which woman you like, whether you like others more or less than Jiu Yi, you probably don't even know these things yourself, right? But Jiu Yi knows them."

So, Jiang Xiaozi, you'd better think this through. You probably have quite a few women around outside, don't you?

If you cure Jiu Yi, then Jiu Yi will know all your little schemes, and Jiu Yi is very jealous.

Instead of doing that, why not just play for a while? Anyway, Jiu Yi can cultivate slowly now. After a few hundred years, Jiu Yi reaches the Nascent Soul Realm, she will naturally be able to recover all her memories.

Going to the Dream-Eating Palace now is still a near-death experience, so why bother?

Bai Qianluo stood up, wrapped her arms around Jiang Lin 'Jiang Lin neck, and pressed her soft, delicate body against his back naturally, her soft words like sugar threads drawing into his heart.

"Listen to your sister, don't go..."

"No."

Jiang Lin shook his head.

"Hmm? Why?" Bai Qianluo's fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of amusement in them.

"I got hurt because of Jiu Yi! I have to take responsibility. And although I have other women in my heart, my love for Jiu Yi is genuine. When Jiu Yi regains her memory, I will explain to Jiu Yi in person!"

Jiang Lin pried open her small hands that had been picking at her toes and looked directly into her eyes.

Even though I, Jiang Lin, am a scumbag, I'll be a scumbag in a clear and unambiguous way!
