Douluo: Poisonous Tongue, Loves Telling the Truth

"Mmm~"

Xia Ran was pulled into a tight embrace once more, followed immediately by the soft, fragrant lips of the young girl.

As the warm sensation washed over him, his mind went completely blank, leaving him momentarily unsure of what to do; he neither responded nor resisted...

He stood there, foolishly allowing her to take what she wanted.

Yet, the more he remained passive, the more urgent Zhu Zhuqing became.

Even if she were to be rejected, she was unwilling to remain just friends with Xia Ran for the rest of her life.

As time slipped away, Xia Ran's soul power could no longer suppress the evil fire within his body, and the body that Zhu Zhuqing was holding tightly...

Feeling something unusual against her lower abdomen, Zhu Zhuqing's face turned bright red in an instant.

Even so, she had no intention of letting go of Xia Ran.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Zhuqing's brain began to suffer from a slight lack of oxygen, forcing her to pull back for a moment.

As their lips parted, a thin thread of saliva stretched between them. The girl's eyes were hazy, and she gasped for air...

The slight sense of dizziness went to her head, and she cupped Xia Ran's cheeks in her hands, asking.

"Xia Ran, am I not pretty?"

Xia Ran's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed, his mind still a blank slate as he answered instinctively.

"Pretty..."

Zhu Zhuqing smiled, her hazy eyes gaining a hint of aggression as she pushed Xia Ran down onto the bed and straddled his waist...

She looked down at Xia Ran with a dominant posture she had never displayed before.

"Is my figure not good?"

"Mm..."

"Then do you like me..."

"Li...ke..."

Having received the affirmative answer, Zhu Zhuqing tentatively slid her palm into the collar of Xia Ran's shirt.

Her fingertips brushed against his chest, making her feel somewhat nervous.

At this moment, Xia Ran finally snapped back to reality; he had actually been forcibly pushed down by her!

Seeing the girl still pretending to be calm, her soft, delicate hand trembling slightly, he couldn't help but find it amusing.

Suddenly, a pair of large hands pinned Zhu Zhuqing's wrists, causing her to flinch and try to pull away instantly, like a kitten that had stepped into a trap.

Xia Ran's lips curled upward; this girl... tsk tsk...

She was clearly so timid, yet she had actually done something like this!

"You..."

Zhu Zhuqing instinctively wanted to dodge, forgetting that she had been the one to initiate everything.

Facing the girl's startled expression, Xia Ran wore a smirk.

"What? Are you scared now?"

Only then did Zhu Zhuqing realize...

Before the girl could make another move, Xia Ran flipped over, pinning her forearms and pressing Zhu Zhuqing beneath him.

The roles had reversed; her purple hair was splayed across the pillow, making her skin appear even whiter.

"Hmph~"

Seeming to feel a twinge of pain in her wrists, a soft moan escaped the girl's lips, which perfectly ignited the last shred of reason remaining in their minds.

Xia Ran leaned down and kissed Zhu Zhuqing's red lips.

His kiss was incredibly aggressive, giving her no chance to react.

Being treated so forcefully took the girl by surprise, allowing her to experience the pleasure of being conquered by him.

Her previously tense body gradually relaxed, and she slowly closed her eyes, her arms wrapping around Xia Ran's neck of their own accord...

Chapter 45: Martial Soul Fusion Skill? I Need to Check

(Attached: A photo of Zhu Zhuqing in her nightgown)

From sunrise to sunset, the bright moonlight draped over the roof like a thin veil.

Inside the room, Zhu Zhuqing nestled in Xia Ran's arms, her hair matted with sweat and clinging to her snow-white skin, her breathing still carrying a faint tremor...

Neither of them spoke; the room was filled only with their heavy breathing.

After a long while, Xia Ran toyed with the soft flesh of his beauty, teasing her with a laugh.

"I never would have guessed, you usually speak so softly, yet you were so bold today!"

Hearing the smile in his tone, Zhu Zhuqing pulled the blanket up and pressed herself even closer into Xia Ran's embrace.

Having been exhausted for the entire day, her mind had cleared, and as she recalled what she had done that morning, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

With the Blue Silver Emperor soul bone replenishing her physical energy, she didn't feel particularly tired; on the contrary, she felt a sense of fulfillment...

Thinking of the soul bone, Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly.

"Where did you get this soul bone?"

As she spoke, she gently lifted her right leg and rested it on Xia Ran.

This posture couldn't help but make Xia Ran's mind wander once again.

However, having been at it all day, faced with such a scene, he only subconsciously increased the strength in his hands, drawing a soft moan from the young girl.

"Speaking of which, it really was a coincidence."

"This soul bone belonged to Tang San's biological mother."

The sacrifice of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Ah Yin was no secret; many people on the continent knew about it.

Xia Ran didn't hide anything, immediately revealing Tang San's background and the day Tang Hao had entrusted the soul bone and Ah Yin to him.

As he finished speaking, he pointed to a stalk of Blue Silver Grass kept in a vase on the windowsill.

"Look! Your soul bone is hers."

"As a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that had taken human form, she not only carried the hopes of the entire Blue Silver Grass clan but also had a reason that compelled her to become a god."

"Yet, she ended up being calculated by her lover, sacrificing her entire cultivation to Tang Hao and leaving behind this child, Tang San."

It must be said that whenever the sacrifice of Ah Yin was mentioned, even Xia Ran felt a sense of regret in his heart.

If he could return to that era, he would never allow anyone to treat emotions with such contempt.

Hearing the whole story, Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat moved. Whether it was due to the Blue Silver Emperor soul bone or her own inherent sensitivity to emotions, a sense of unease sprouted in her heart.

Now that she had fused with Ah Yin's soul bone, she could vaguely perceive the other's consciousness through her spiritual power. It was very blurry, lacking a clear sense of self, much like a young child.

It was clear that Ah Yin could not yet understand what Xia Ran was saying, and without a special opportunity, it was hard to say how long it would take for her to grow enough to take human form again.

"I feel like this soul bone is so precious, not just because of its inherent value, but also..."

"Xia Ran, promise me we will be together forever, okay!"

Zhu Zhuqing lifted her snow-white neck, meeting Xia Ran's gaze.

It seemed she wanted to find the answer in his eyes.

Xia Ran dotingly ruffled her hair, trying his best to keep his tone gentle.

"Don't worry! I will always be by your side..."

He had thought about it; regardless of what the subsequent system tasks might be, he would be with Zhu Zhuqing forever.

Breaking up couples didn't mean he had to end up as a couple with the other person.

Besides, who could say for sure what would happen in the future...

Feeling the firmness in Xia Ran's gaze, Zhu Zhuqing smiled with satisfaction. The flush on her face had just faded, only to be replaced by a tint of shyness.

Her courage had been rewarded!

The next day.

A black barrier enveloped the two on the bed. Zhu Zhuqing was still asleep, while Xia Ran had reached the final moment of fusing the soul bone.

The Mysterious Cat soul bone was of the same origin as his own martial soul, so the fusion went very smoothly.

The Hundred-Thousand-Year right leg bone brought him two new skills:

[Teleportation: Activate the skill to teleport to any location within a 400-meter radius (the teleportation range grows with soul power).]

Xia Ran estimated that since he currently only had four soul rings, the range was limited to 400 meters; once he obtained his fifth soul ring, it should increase by another hundred meters.

However, even at a 400-meter range, it could be called a god-tier skill.

The other skill was:

[High Spirits: Activate the skill to increase your own speed by 10% with every attack. For every 10 stacks, you gain an additional 33% attack power. There is no upper limit to the stacks (the interval between each attack must not exceed 5 seconds).]

It must be said that the effect of this skill was somewhat heaven-defying.

With no upper limit to the stacks, if he had enough soul power, he could even slay a god.

Of course, this was only an ideal state. Restricted by the 5-second attack interval, this skill could only be fully utilized when facing opponents of the same level or those with a small gap in strength.

After all, he wasn't the only one moving on the battlefield; enemies would dodge and launch their own attacks as well.

As the final thread of energy was smoothed out, Xia Ran completely fused with the Hundred-Thousand-Year right leg bone.

The pleasure of being filled with soul power made him subconsciously trigger his Martial Soul Avatar, an action that happened to wake the sleeping Zhu Zhuqing.

"Mmm~ You're awake!"

The young girl was bleary-eyed; the moment she opened her eyes, she saw Xia Ran sitting cross-legged at the head of the bed.

In his Martial Soul Avatar state, a pair of black cat ears made him look a bit more adorable, and the fluffy cat tail behind him swayed gently.
