As Long as Your Mind Doesn't Slip, There Are Always More Solutions Than Difficulties

Sunset and sunrise—another new day.

Suotuo City, Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Hotel.

Inside Li Xiaoyao and Ning Rongrong's room.

Sunlight filtered through the mottled curtains, gently spilling across the entire room.

Especially on the bedsheet, that trace of "fallen red" was particularly eye-catching.

"Mmm..."

"Brother Xiaoyao..."

"Master..."

"Daddy..."

Ning Rongrong seemed to be dreaming about something—

She bit her finger and murmured in her sleep.

She even instinctively snuggled closer against Li Xiaoyao.

The sleeping Li Xiaoyao was roused by her rubbing against him.

The moment he opened his eyes, he saw the girl...

Oh! No!

She should be called a sleeping beauty now, curled up in his arms, with lingering lazy charm still between her brows.

"This little girl can't behave herself even in her dreams."

Li Xiaoyao chuckled, raising a hand to brush through Ning Rongrong's messy hair. His fingers lightly grazed her reddened earlobe.

As though sensing it, Ning Rongrong rubbed against his palm.

He heard her murmur softly.

"Brother Xiaoyao..."

"You're too strong!"

"Rongrong needs to rest!"

Smelling that familiar scent, Ning Rongrong slept even more peacefully.

Morning light enveloped their intertwined figures. The fallen red on the sheets reflected the warmth, and the room was filled with tender intimacy.

Time passed, and soon it was noon.

Li Xiaoyao and Ning Rongrong lingered together a while longer before slowly getting up and tidying themselves.

Ning Rongrong had shed some of her innocence, her brows and eyes gaining a touch of soft allure. Li Xiaoyao's gaze made her blush, and she turned away with a coy complaint, though her hand still refused to let go of her beloved's.

Together, they came to the restaurant downstairs.

Inside a private room, Li Xiaoyao spoke.

"Sister Rongrong, eat more and replenish your strength."

Those words made Ning Rongrong's face turn bright red.

"Eek! Brother Xiaoyao, you're awful!"

After shooting Li Xiaoyao a glare, Ning Rongrong launched an attack on the delicacies spread across the table and obediently ate several extra bites.

Ning Rongrong was very happy today.

After her tireless initiative and persistent coaxing, she had finally won Li Xiaoyao over.

Li Xiaoyao smiled helplessly. He always felt that he had been played by Ning Rongrong, that Little Demoness.

"Sister Rongrong, I have two sets of Self-Created Soul Skills that suit you very well. They cultivate both inner and outer aspects, including an internal cultivation method and a lightness movement technique. After we finish eating and return to Shrek Academy's back mountain, I'll find a quiet spot and teach them to you."

"These two ultimate arts suit you perfectly. They can accelerate your cultivation, keep your Soul Power flowing without end, and let you evade with agility. If you encounter danger, you can escape calmly. They complement your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda and will take your survival ability to another level."

The internal cultivation method and lightness movement technique Li Xiaoyao mentioned were precisely the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track from the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record.

Though many people had mocked these two techniques, among all the memories he had read from Tang San, they were the most top-tier ultimate arts and currently the most suitable for Ning Rongrong.

The Mysterious Heaven Skill could keep Soul Power endlessly replenished and steadily improve it, while Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track was elusive and unpredictable. The two complemented each other.

At the very least, compared to the Meditation Methods of Douluo Continent, they were currently irreplaceable superior techniques.

They could make up for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda's weakness of rapidly consuming Soul Power, while also making Ning Rongrong's movements nimble and unpredictable, allowing her to escape danger calmly and giving her greater security in both offense and defense.

"They can account for both Soul Power endurance and evasive movement techniques?"

"Brother Xiaoyao, your internal cultivation method and lightness movement technique were practically tailor-made for every Support System Soul Master!"

Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up, unable to conceal her delight.

As a Support System Soul Master with no combat ability—

She understood all too well the helplessness of exhausting her Soul Power, and even more so the embarrassment of being unable to evade an enemy's attacks in battle, forced to passively rely on others for protection.

Internal cultivation replenished endurance, while lightness movement aided evasion. It was practically like giving every Support System Soul Master a pair of wings for survival and sustained combat.

"Hehe! Sister Rongrong, keep a low profile, keep a low profile!"

Li Xiaoyao waved his hand, unconcerned.

Unfortunately, the Tang Sect was not some great martial arts sect and did not possess any particularly profound Martial Arts Manuals.

Having read through all of Tang San's past memories, even trash like the Evil Warding Swordplay could be placed beneath the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record and become a second-tier martial arts manual of the Tang Sect. It truly could not be presented in polite company.

But then again, for an assassin sect of middling size like the Tang Sect, practicing Evil Warding Swordplay did fit the path of assassination. After all, assassins generally pursued a single killing blow.

As long as they could kill the enemy, a mere bit of flesh between their legs could be cut off without concern.

After lunch, Li Xiaoyao personally passed the formulas of the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to Ning Rongrong, enunciating every word clearly and imparting all the essentials of the cultivation method and the essence of the footwork.

By the time Ning Rongrong had memorized the formulas of the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, the sun had already set into dusk.

Ning Rongrong came before Li Xiaoyao and parted her rosy lips.

"Brother Xiaoyao, Rongrong has memorized the formulas for the Mysterious Heaven Skill and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track."

"Are we going back to Shrek Academy now? Or should we rest another night at our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Hotel and return tomorrow?"

Ning Rongrong licked her cherry-red lips with her tongue.

Thinking of their intimacy last night made her cheeks burn. It seemed that the bone-deep sensation still lingered between her lips and teeth; her body trembled slightly, and her eyes rippled with a soft, dazed tenderness.

Clearly—

Ning Rongrong had tasted forbidden fruit for the first time and become addicted to it.

Li Xiaoyao pulled Ning Rongrong into his arms.

Smiling, he asked.

"Hehe! Sister Rongrong!"

"Are you sure your body has recovered?"

"Are you sure you can withstand my attack?"

"When the time comes, don't beg me for mercy like you did last night!"

Li Xiaoyao's words made Ning Rongrong's brows knot together.

She really did seem to be no match for Brother Xiaoyao.

Perhaps accepting that Brother Xiaoyao had other women was actually a good thing.

Once she had other sisters to share the burden in the future, she would suffer less torment and would not be worn so limp at night that she lacked even the strength to raise a hand.

Suddenly, Ning Rongrong thought of something.

Then she mysteriously began whispering into Li Xiaoyao's ear.

"Hehehe, Brother Xiaoyao!"

"Rongrong's body really hasn't recovered yet!"

"But there are always more solutions than difficulties!"

"As long as your mind doesn't slip!"

"A different method can still make Brother Xiaoyao feel good~"

Ning Rongrong gently breathed fragrant warmth into Li Xiaoyao's ear, her voice soft and smiling.

"Hehehe! Brother Xiaoyao!"

"Rongrong is very capable!"

"When I learned needlework at home!"

"These little hands of mine were exceptionally nimble!"

"When facing those useless nobles of the Heaven Dou Empire—"

"This little cherry mouth of Rongrong's could out-argue an entire crowd!"

"I scolded those useless nobles until they couldn't lift their heads!"

"Hehehe! Brother Xiaoyao!"

"What do you think? Isn't Rongrong amazing?"

"Just like Rongrong said, as long as your mind doesn't slip, there are always more solutions than difficulties. Rongrong has plenty of ways to make Brother Xiaoyao fully satisfied~"

After saying that, Ning Rongrong smiled.
