The Wedding Night?

Hearing those words, Rongrong, whose face was covered in splashes of water, instantly turned as red as an apple!

She instinctively wiped the water off her face and looked ahead, only to see...

"Ah! You're not wearing any clothes..."

Somewhat speechless, Ye Xingchen scratched his head, then covered himself and said with a wry smile:

"Don't you have to take your clothes off to bathe?"

"Besides, you're my wife now. Why are you still shy?"

Rongrong, who was covering her eyes with her left hand, grew terribly bashful at his words. Slapping the water, she muttered:

"You're a Soul Beast... I'm not your wife!"

"Tomorrow, I'll have my dad call off the engagement. Whoever wants to marry you can marry you... I won't..."

A Soul Beast?

I'm not a Soul Beast!

Ye Xingchen scratched his head. Looking at the drenched Rongrong soaking in the water, he said with a wry smile:

"It seems you have quite a misunderstanding about me..."

Before he could finish, the soaking-wet Rongrong stood up and interrupted him.

She lifted her fair, long leg slightly, instinctively trying to step out of the Spirit Pool.

Whether she was too nervous or the water's surface was too slippery, she suddenly tipped backward!

"Ah..."

At that hairbreadth moment, a pair of large, fair hands quietly arrived.

Holding her slender waist firmly, Ye Xingchen looked at the stunning eyes, cherry lips, and fair skin before him and couldn't help saying with a smile:

"Careful. There's too much water, and it's slippery."

Her pretty face as red as an apple, Rongrong gave a soft huff and quickly pouted:

"Let go of me. Let me..."

Splash...

Before she could finish, Rongrong felt the support beneath her vanish, and her entire body promptly fell into the water.

"You... actually let go!"

After swallowing a few mouthfuls of bathwater, Rongrong quickly surfaced, wiped the water off her face, and said bitterly!

Watching the splashing water, Ye Xingchen rubbed his chin and said with a smile:

"You told me to let go, so of course I did!"

"Honestly, I've never heard such a speechless request in my life!"

Black lines streaked across Rongrong's forehead as she sighed. Seeing the fellow before her staring at her,

she immediately covered herself and strode out of the pool on her long legs.

"Yawn..."

She yawned, gave a soft huff, and looked back:

"Just you wait. This isn't over!"

Watching her graceful figure retreat, Ye Xingchen sighed softly.

Ning Rongrong was a notorious Little Demoness, with quite the spoiled young lady's temper.

She only seemed a little sweeter and more obedient around her father. Around outsiders, she was a thorough little troublemaker.

With something of a headache, Ye Xingchen shook his head, then went back to scrubbing himself clean!

Meanwhile, on the bridal bed,

Rongrong, who had used Soul Power to dry her clothes, looked at the blade with its rolled edge in her hand and couldn't help letting out a lingering sigh.

Just now, she had taken the dagger over, intending to test what he was made of.

Who knew that before the dagger could get anywhere near him, a force of Martial Soul power would quietly appear!

Before she could react, she had been blasted into the pool, ending up looking like a drowned rat.

Growing angrier the more she thought about it, Rongrong sighed softly. She couldn't help thinking that the force just now had seemed like Martial Soul power!

But... how could a Soul Beast have Martial Soul power?

The more she thought, the more confused she became. She shook her head and was just about to settle down to sleep.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded outside, and then Ye Xingchen walked in wearing a white robe.

Having finished his bath, he glanced at Rongrong and said with a smile:

"Sorry for the wait. I'm done bathing!"

"Next, a moment of the spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold..."

Before he could finish, a dagger with a rolled edge came hurtling toward him.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Ye Xingchen smiled faintly and caught it between two fingers.

Glancing at Rongrong, he teased:

"We haven't even had our wedding night yet, and you're already trying to murder your husband?"

Her pretty face flushed, Rongrong gave a soft huff. At the sight, she couldn't help clenching her pearly teeth.

She thought that those two fingers of his seemed particularly long!

She shook her head and said:

"In your dreams! Don't even think about coming over!"

"This is my bed. Come any closer, and don't blame me for showing no mercy!"

Hearing that, Ye Xingchen folded his arms.

Looking at Rongrong, as lovely as flowers and jade before him, he said with a smile:

"We've only just finished the wedding bows, and you're already refusing to acknowledge it?"

"There's no such reasoning under heaven. Today, I'm going to give it a try!"

Having declared that, Ye Xingchen rolled up his sleeves, put on a fierce look, and advanced toward her.

The sight made Rongrong gnash her teeth. With a casual wave of her hand, an Exquisite Little Pagoda immediately manifested over her.

Watching the hateful fellow approach, she clenched her pearly teeth and said:

"Take this!"

In an instant, Ning Rongrong's body became a blur and vanished from the spot.

Her astonishing speed was fully revealed at that moment.

Knowing exactly what was happening, Ye Xingchen sighed softly and glanced around. After sensing the flowing aura,

he immediately stepped backward and to the left, and a fair fist swept past in front of him!

Her face full of surprise, Ning Rongrong was utterly shocked to see him evade her attack so easily.

She instinctively tried to pull away, but it was already too late.

Having stepped back, Ye Xingchen curled his lips. Within him, the Spirit Qi of the Sea of Bitterness surged, the Life Spring erupted, and the divine bridge radiated seven-colored divine light!

With a simple movement, he gently caught Ning Rongrong's arm.

With a slight tug, her soft, graceful figure fell into his embrace.

Looking at Ning Rongrong's slightly flushed face and utterly defiant expression, Ye Xingchen said with a smile:

"Do you yield?"

Terribly bashful, Ning Rongrong gave a soft huff and muttered:

"What does this prove?"

"A higher level bullying a lower level. I'm only level 23, and you're at least level 35!"

"A Soul Elder bullying a Soul Master. Shameless!"

A Soul Elder, huh...

Hearing Ning Rongrong say that, Ye Xingchen finally figured out his own level of strength.

He was now at the Wheel Sea Divine Bridge stage, which, by the Douluo Continent's standards of strength, was the Soul Elder level.

But he also knew very well that he actually had no Soul Power whatsoever!

Ye Xingchen glanced at the beauty in his arms and said with a smile:

"Would you believe me if I said I didn't have any Soul Rings?"

No Soul Rings?

Hearing that, the defiant Ning Rongrong froze briefly, then stood up and said:

"Ridiculous! How is that possible? How could you be this powerful without Soul Rings?"

"Stop lying to me. Do you really think I'm a child you can easily fool?"

"If you don't have any Soul Rings, I'll spend the wedding night with you tonight!"

Unconcerned, Ye Xingchen shook his head slightly and snapped his fingers. The Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul immediately appeared above his head.

He glanced at Rongrong, whose mouth had formed an O, and said with a wry smile:

"I wasn't lying, was I? I really don't have any Soul Rings. I'm not even a level-ten Soul Master."

Frozen in place, Ning Rongrong squeezed her hands. Looking at the Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul before her, her mind went completely blank!

Her first impression of the Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul made her instinctively assume it was also a support-type Martial Soul.

But after sensing that powerful, overbearing aura, she dismissed the thought.

She only felt that this Martial Soul was anything but ordinary and was very likely a top-grade Martial Soul with astonishing defensive power!

For a support-type combatant like her, having the protection of such a Martial Soul would be like a fish finding water!

But when Rongrong saw that there wasn't a single Soul Ring on the Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul, her face instantly turned pale!
