How Could There Be Slimes in the Zhu Xian World

"I never expected him to win again!"

Watching the battle, Bibi Dong stared at this unbelievable scene, her brows furrowing slightly as a look of deep gravity appeared on her exquisite face.

What should she do now?

Could it be that they were really going to be managed by this man?

No, absolutely not!

In any case, she could earn points by checking in every day; at worst, she would just wait another three months!

[Feng Qing'er: Hmph! You stinking man, just you wait! (Angry)]

[Feng Qing'er: I will never submit, absolutely not! (Angry) (Contempt)]

Bibi Dong looked at the messages on the screen, pondered for a moment, and then sent a message of her own.

[Bibi Dong: I won't submit either! (Angry)]

After sending the message, Bibi Dong closed the chat group, straightened her clothes, and returned to her room to sleep.

Lu Jiuyuan looked at the messages on the screen, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly. There was plenty of time; one day, they would eventually soften their stance!

[Congratulations to the host for maintaining the authority of the group leader, gaining 50 Prestige Points.]

[Congratulations to the host for interacting with Feng Qing'er, gaining 50 Prestige Points!]

[Congratulations to the host for interacting with Bibi Dong, gaining the Death Spider Emperor's third soul skill: Demon Spider Summoning (Summons a swarm of small Death Demon Spiders to devour the enemy's soul power and self-destruct.)]

Seeing these notifications, Lu Jiuyuan raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat surprised!

In just a short moment, he had already gained a skill; this efficiency was too fast!

However, what the heck were these Prestige Points?

"System, what are Prestige Points? Come out and explain!"

Lu Jiuyuan asked with a puzzled expression, one hand gripping his chin.

[Ding! System prompt: Prestige Points are the exclusive currency of the group leader. The mall function unlocks after the group leader reaches LV3!]

[You can purchase items in the mall to maintain order in the Peerless Beauty Group, or use them to improve the group leader's own strength!]

[Current group leader level: LV1. Please work hard to level up!]

"So that's how it is!" Lu Jiuyuan nodded thoughtfully. "Then what rights do I have as the group leader?"

[...]

[Current group leader privileges: Group Leader Red Packet, private chat with group members!]

[Other group leader privileges are currently locked!]

Seeing this, Lu Jiuyuan covered his face with his hand, speechless.

"Forget it, let's leave it at that for now!" Lu Jiuyuan glanced at the pitch-black night sky outside the window. "It's about time to sleep; I have to get up early tomorrow!"

Lu Jiuyuan had only just laid down when he began to dream.

In his dream, he was in a chaotic void, with colorful orbs of light floating all around him.

He walked aimlessly until he suddenly stepped on something soft and squishy.

Looking down, he saw a blue, jelly-like object.

A slime.

"Why would there be a slime in the Zhu Xian world?" Lu Jiuyuan asked himself, puzzled, as he crouched down and poked it.

Soft.

Bouncy.

The texture was unexpectedly good.

He couldn't help but poke it a few more times, and the slime wiggled, making a "guji guji" sound.

Lu Jiuyuan became interested and scooped it up with both hands to knead it. This thing was so stress-relieving to squeeze, far more satisfying than any stress toy he had played with in his past life.

As he kneaded it, the slime suddenly began to transform!

From a round ball, it slowly elongated, its outline becoming clearer and clearer.

It looked like a human figure!

In the time it took Lu Jiuyuan to rub his eyes, the slime had completely transformed into the shape of a woman!

With hair like a waterfall, clothes as white as snow, and a graceful figure!

Wasn't this Lu Xueqi?

Lu Jiuyuan was stunned, but his hands continued to knead.

In any case, Lu Xueqi was his fiancée, so kneading a little wouldn't hurt.

Hmm, this texture really is even better than a slime!

"Mmm-hnn~!"

An incredibly enchanting, soft moan drifted over!

It was extremely light and gentle, yet carried a faint, lingering tremor.

Lu Jiuyuan snapped his eyes open!

The next moment, he turned his head to look beside him and froze.

The room was dimly lit, with morning mist filtering through the gaps in the window screens, creating a hazy atmosphere.

Lying on his bed, right beside him, was a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in white as snow.

Lu Xueqi!!

Her dark hair was scattered across the pillow, and her face, usually as cold as frost, was now flushed with a faint rosy hue. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her lips were pressed together.

She was lying on her side facing him, her breathing steady, light, and shallow.

At this moment, she was wearing an undergarment as thin as a cicada's wing, leaving little to the imagination.

His palm, separated only by that thin layer of fabric, could feel the astonishing curve and warmth beneath.

Lu Jiuyuan's brain completely crashed for a full three seconds.

Immediately after, he saw Lu Xueqi open her eyes.

Those eyes, which were usually as cold as icy pools, were now shimmering with moisture, fixed steadily upon him.

A hint of dampness hung on her eyelashes, though it was unclear if it was from the mist or something else.

Her face turned even redder.

But she did not move.

She simply watched him quietly, her gentle gaze filled with affection and attachment, along with a touch of shyness and sweetness.

Lu Jiuyuan's fingers trembled slightly.

That tremor traveled through the undergarment, and Lu Xueqi's eyelashes fluttered in response.

"Sen...ior... Bro...ther."

Feeling that numbing sensation, Lu Xueqi murmured softly, her voice so faint it was almost inaudible, tinged with a hint of huskiness.

Lu Jiuyuan's Adam's apple bobbed.

He wanted to pull his hand back.

He really did.

But his hand seemed to have a mind of its own, remaining completely motionless.

"Xueqi..." he began, trying to distract her, his own voice sounding a bit hoarse, "why are you here?"

"Last night... I came to return your sword."

"Return the sword?" Lu Jiuyuan was slightly taken aback.

"Master asked me to bring the Chengying Sword to you," her voice remained just as soft. "Your sword had been left in the Sword Pavilion for tempering."

Lu Jiuyuan remembered.

He had been too hurried when he left seclusion yesterday and hadn't managed to retrieve the Chengying Sword.

Later, he had gone to the back mountain to enjoy some sweet time alone with Lu Xueqi.

When he returned at night, he went straight to his room and hadn't thought about it at all.

"Then you..." Lu Jiuyuan frowned slightly.

"You were asleep." Lu Xueqi turned her face slightly, revealing a small, reddened earlobe. "I called out to you, but you didn't wake up. I intended to leave the sword and go, and then..."

She didn't continue.

Lu Jiuyuan understood.

And then, somehow, she had stayed.

And then, somehow, she had ended up lying beside him.

And then, somehow, she had...

"Xueqi!" Lu Jiuyuan said with deep affection, "I didn't mean to."

"Mmm," Lu Xueqi replied.

"I was having a nightmare."

"Mmm."

"I dreamt of a slime..."

"A slime?" Lu Xueqi blinked her clear, large eyes, looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Lu Xueqi seemed to realize something as well, and her face turned even redder.

She gently bit down on her delicate, cherry-colored lips, her voice trembling slightly: "Senior Brother, could you... please first..."

Lu Jiuyuan finally regained control over his body.

He withdrew his hand with great reluctance, his movements as stiff as a rusted mechanism.

Though his hand had left that softness, it could not take away the warmth lingering on his fingertips.

He curled his fingers, the sensation of that softness seemingly still clinging to his skin.
