"Sacrifice."
Xiao Wu's voice carried a sob.
As a Spirit Beast, she understood better than anyone what the word "sacrifice" meant.
It meant offering everything she had, without holding anything back, to a human.
"Yes. Sacrifice."
Su Bai's voice held no emotion.
"After Ah Yin sacrificed herself, Tang Hao obtained her hundred-thousand-year soul ring, and his strength surged. He repelled Spirit Hall's enemies."
"From then on, he took the young Tang San and lived in seclusion in Holy Spirit Village as a blacksmith."
"Xiao Wu, does this story sound familiar to you?"
After Su Bai finished speaking, the room fell into silence.
Listening to Su Bai's hint, Xiao Wu suddenly thought of herself.
She and Tang San had met at Nuoding Academy and spent six years together.
Tang San had treated her extremely well, protecting her and taking care of her like a true older brother.
But what if Tang San had known her identity from the very beginning? What if, from the start, he had only been after her soul ring and Spirit Bone?
If Brother Su Bai had not appeared, perhaps in the future, while she was still kept in the dark, she would have made the same choice as the Blue Silver Emperor.
The same—bearing Tang San's child, and then sacrificing herself to Tang San.
Brother Su Bai was an Auspicious Beast.
In the world of Spirit Beasts, an Auspicious Beast was the embodiment of Auspicious Aura, a natural-born emperor.
An Auspicious Beast would absolutely never deceive her.
Then what Brother Su Bai said had to be true.
A drop of warm tears slid from the corner of Xiao Wu's eye and fell onto Su Bai's arm.
Immediately after, her tears became like a flood bursting through a dam, impossible to suppress any longer.
Xiao Wu lay in Su Bai's arms, her body trembling violently. She could not make a sound; only silent tears poured out the fear in her heart.
The corners of Su Bai's mouth lifted slightly. He quietly held Xiao Wu, his warm, large hand gently stroking her back.
This was exactly the effect he wanted.
Only after a long while did Xiao Wu's sobs gradually calm down.
Xiao Wu raised her reddened eyes. She looked at Su Bai, her voice hoarse.
"Brother Su Bai, what should I do?"
Su Bai cupped her tear-streaked little face, his movements gentle.
"You don't need to worry."
"Although Tang Hao is a Titled Douluo, he can't see through my background.
Right now, he probably only thinks I'm a lustful kid who simply wants to snatch you away from Tang San."
Those words made Xiao Wu pause.
Xiao Wu sniffled and looked at Su Bai's face so close to hers, feeling the Auspicious Aura on him that put her at ease.
Her little face suddenly flushed red, and her voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
"Brother Su Bai... then do you... like me?"
Su Bai did not answer.
He only lowered his head and accurately kissed those two trembling pink lips.
Soft, warm, and carrying a trace of salty bitterness from her tears.
"What do you think?"
Their lips parted, and Su Bai's fingers brushed over her crimson ear as he asked back in a low voice.
Xiao Wu could not say a word at all.
Her heart felt as if it were about to leap out of her chest. Her entire body went limp, and she could only lean in Su Bai's arms, gasping for breath.
"With me here, you don't need to be afraid of anything."
Su Bai held her a little tighter.
"Tang Hao can't hurt you."
Su Bai had the Super Douluo Experience Card, which was one of his great sources of confidence. Once they reached the Star Dou Great Forest, his identity as an Auspicious Beast would be his greatest source of confidence!
Xiao Wu's heart kept pounding wildly.
That was right. Brother Su Bai was an Auspicious Beast.
Serving Lord Auspicious Beast was the supreme honor of the Spirit Beast race, and it was her blessing.
Besides, Brother Su Bai had exposed Tang Hao and Tang San's plot and saved her from the tragic fate that awaited her in the future.
At that moment, there was no longer any hesitation or uncertainty in Xiao Wu's heart.
[Ding, Xiao Wu's favorability +40. Current favorability: 90 points! (Locked)] [Reward: Favorability Treasure Chest x1]
The system notification sounded in Su Bai's mind. Immediately afterward, a brand-new notification followed.
[Ding, detected that the host has successfully captured the heart of Douluo's original female lead, Xiao Wu!] [Critical reward: Luck Treasure Chest!]
Su Bai was a little surprised.
He had already successfully captured Xiao Wu's heart, so why was her favorability stuck at ninety points instead of going straight to one hundred?
Could it be... that it was still missing the final step?
Su Bai looked at the little rabbit in his arms, her eyes misty with affection and her face shy and flushed, and the Corner of the Mouth could not help but rise.
Xiao Wu had also figured it out now.
Rather than worrying about an uncertain future, it was better to hold tightly to the happiness right in front of her.
To give everything she had to the man before her.
In Xiao Wu's eyes, it was as if two pink hearts had lit up.
Her moist eyes gazed at Su Bai, and a flash of pink light vanished in an instant.
"Second Spirit Ability, Charm!"
A strange mental fluctuation enveloped Su Bai.
Su Bai sensed that power, but he did not resist. He let that Charm, carrying a young girl's tender and inexperienced affection, wrap around him.
Xiao Wu grew bolder.
She took the initiative to stretch out both arms and loop them around Su Bai's neck.
The girl's warm breath spilled over Su Bai's face, carrying her unique fragrance.
Xiao Wu straightened her slender waist and clumsily kissed him again.
This kiss contained all of her feelings.
Xiao Wu's long, jade-like legs also shifted restlessly at that moment, lightly winding around Su Bai's waist.
Su Bai's hand supported Xiao Wu's delicate hips, his warm breath brushing against her flushed earlobe.
"Xiao Wu, have you thought this through?"
Xiao Wu gave a heavy "mm" in his arms.
Her face was buried in the hollow of Su Bai's neck. Her voice was low and soft, yet incomparably clear.
"Brother Su Bai, the future is too uncertain. I'd rather give myself to Brother Su Bai right now."
Xiao Wu's words were like a feather, gently teasing Su Bai's heart.
When meat delivered itself to the door, what reason was there not to eat it?
Su Bai gently lifted Xiao Wu in his arms and placed her on the not-so-spacious bed.
The wooden bed gave a faint "creak."
Then he covered her with his own body.
Su Bai looked down at Xiao Wu beneath him, at her eyes trembling slightly from nervousness, and spoke in a low voice.
"That day will never come."
"You will only ever be my Xiao Wu."
After saying that, Su Bai kissed her, swallowing down all of Xiao Wu's unease.
The pink dress slipped down, revealing the girl's fair, smooth skin.
Her black Scorpion Braid scattered across the bed, forming a stark contrast with the white sheets.
On the other side of the wall.
Tang San sat cross-legged on the bed, the Mysterious Heaven Skill slowly circulating through his body.
He forced himself to calm down.
Xiao Wu's coldness and Su Bai's arrogance both turned into motivation for his cultivation.
Tang San had to become stronger. He had to break through to level thirty as soon as possible.
Then, in the Star Dou Great Forest, he would make Su Bai disappear without a sound.
Tang San's body instantly went rigid, and the blood and qi that had just calmed surged again.
He pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
