Douluo: The Venom System is Awesome

She was dressed in white, her golden hair cascading like a waterfall, a hint of mockery playing on her delicate, angelic face.

"Or is it... that you don't dare to see me?"

Mu Junyu pretended to be woken up, rubbing his eyes and muttering in a sleepy voice.

"Who is it... so late..."

"You're quite the actor." Qian Renxue sneered, waving her hand to signal the maids to withdraw. Once the door was shut, she walked straight to Mu Junyu's bed and looked down at him from above.

"Mother wants me to go with you to hunt for a soul ring tomorrow!"

Mu Junyu sat up, the sleepiness on his handsome face vanishing instantly!

What the hell! Doesn't Bibi Dong know that Qian Renxue finds me the most annoying person in the world!

This girl's jealousy is truly off the charts!

Bibi Dong treats her newly accepted disciple Hu Liena and him both very well, which only makes Qian Renxue hate him even more.

The issue of Bibi Dong not favoring Qian Renxue is currently almost unsolvable...

I don't know how many times this year Qian Renxue has cornered me and beaten me up...

Although this crazy girl has decent strength... but... I can't have her accompanying me to hunt for a soul ring...

That's it... Bibi Dong is taking a little revenge on me... this is such a scam... what kind of situation is this...

Qian Renxue looked down at Mu Junyu from above, the moonlight filtering through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows across her exquisite face.

She was wearing a well-tailored white martial outfit tonight, cinched at the waist with a golden ribbon, which was both feminine and imbued with a sense of capable, heroic spirit.

"Six o'clock tomorrow morning, meet at the main gate of Martial Soul Hall."

Qian Renxue said coldly, a dangerous glint flashing in her golden eyes.

"If you dare to be late!"

She suddenly leaned down and grabbed Mu Junyu by the collar.

"I'll break your legs!"

Chapter 4: Sister Xue, do you want to try it?

Mu Junyu could smell the faint scent of gardenias on Qian Renxue, along with an unconcealable hostility.

Although he knew these were just harsh words, he had no doubt that if he really dared to be late, a sound beating would be unavoidable.

"Sister Xue is so fierce, how will you ever get married in the future?"

Mu Junyu deliberately blinked his eyes, putting on an innocent and naive expression.

A cold light flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes, and her hand gripping his collar tightened sharply.

"Stop playing dumb with me! Don't think that just because Mother dotes on you, I wouldn't dare to touch you!" Her other hand condensed a ball of golden soul power, which she waved in front of Mu Junyu.

"Remember, six o'clock!"

After saying this, she fiercely released Mu Junyu's collar, turned around, and strode away. "Bang!" The door was slammed shut, making the window lattice hum. "What kind of situation is this..."

Early the next morning, as the horizon just began to turn a pale fish-belly white, Mu Junyu was already dressed neatly and standing in front of the main gate of Martial Soul Hall.

He was wearing a custom-made purple-black combat robe, with a silver belt embedded with a Soul Tool cinched at his waist.

Although his seven-year-old body made the robe look a bit oversized, the innate air of nobility he possessed was not diminished in the slightest.

"This world is really strange, twelve is considered an adult..."

Mu Junyu looked down at his still-tender palms and muttered softly.

In five more years, he would be able to shed this childish shell.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look forward to his future self.

The morning breeze blew, carrying the unique, grassy fragrance of the Star Dou Forest.

Mu Junyu took a deep breath and then exhaled, letting his brain take a deep breath.

"Yo, you're quite punctual today."

A cold voice came from behind him.

Mu Junyu turned around and saw Qian Renxue walking toward him through the morning light.

She had changed into a sharp white hunting outfit today, her long golden hair tied up high, making her look heroic and spirited.

The sunlight spilled onto her, as if plating her in a layer of divine radiance.

"How could I dare to disobey Sister Xue's orders?"

Mu Junyu smiled and bowed, deliberately emphasizing the word "Sister" heavily.

Qian Renxue snorted coldly, a flash of displeasure crossing her golden eyes.

"Stop with the glib tongue. Elder Ju is already waiting, let's go."

Mu Junyu paused, shaking his head inwardly.

He sighed, realizing it was just as he expected; Bibi Dong wouldn't truly let the two of them go to the Star Dou Forest alone.

She turned and strode away, her white cloak snapping loudly behind her.

Mu Junyu watched her retreating figure, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

Although Qian Renxue always maintained an icy, frost-bitten demeanor, he knew that this little princess of the Martial Soul Hall was actually more desperate for her mother's approval than anyone else.

"Wait for me, Sister Xue~"

Mu Junyu trotted to catch up, deliberately using a sweet voice to curry favor with the hot-tempered Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue's footsteps faltered, and she threw a line back without turning her head.

"Call me sister one more time, and I'll let you taste my second soul skill."

Mu Junyu wisely shut his mouth, but the smile in his eyes deepened.

The road is long and the burden is heavy... a mother-daughter duo isn't so easy to conquer...

He lamented in his heart, quickening his pace to keep up with Qian Renxue.

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan stood ahead in a white robe embroidered with gold thread, toying with a golden chrysanthemum in his hand. Seeing the two arrive, a hint of a smile flashed in his narrow, phoenix-like eyes.

"Her Highness Xue, Saint Mu, you've arrived just in time."

Yue Guan's voice was gentle. He tossed the chrysanthemum in his hand, and the petals instantly disintegrated into countless specks of golden light.

"Let me accompany you on this trip today."

Before his words had even faded, the golden specks filling the sky suddenly surged, transforming into thousands of razor-sharp chrysanthemum blades.

These blades, thin as cicada wings, wove and swirled in the air, and in the blink of an eye, they combined into a brilliant, shimmering golden flying vessel.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the blades, casting fragmented spots of light onto the ground.

"Come aboard."

Yue Guan tapped his toes lightly and drifted onto the bow of the vessel.

Qian Renxue let out a cold snort, a pair of snow-white wings unfurling from her back as she landed gracefully in the center of the vessel.

Mu Junyu, however, stretched out his hands with a mischievous grin.

"Sister Xue, I haven't learned how to fly yet~"

A vein pulsed on Qian Renxue's forehead. Just as she was about to snap, Yue Guan coughed at the right moment.

"Little Mu, stop fooling around."

With a flick of his sleeve, a strand of golden soul power lifted Mu Junyu onto the vessel.

The vessel soared into the air, and Mu Junyu pretended to be afraid, grabbing onto Qian Renxue's cloak.

"It's so high, Sister, I'm scared..."

"Let go!"

Qian Renxue spun around abruptly, golden soul power condensing in her palm.

Mu Junyu hurriedly retreated, but accidentally stepped on the edge of the vessel, causing him to tilt backward.

At the critical moment, a stream of purple-black liquid shot out from his sleeve, coiling around the railing of the vessel.

Mu Junyu used the leverage to flip himself up, landing steadily at the stern, not forgetting to wink at Qian Renxue: "Many thanks for your concern, Sister."

Yue Guan, with his back to the two, had his shoulders shaking suspiciously.

Mu Junyu was clearly teasing the girl... a precocious little devil.

Qian Renxue was so angry her face turned red, but with Yue Guan present, she couldn't easily lash out.

She could only glare fiercely at Mu Junyu before turning to face the distance.

As the vessel skimmed over the lush forest, Mu Junyu watched Qian Renxue's straight back, his mouth curling upward.

He quietly released a wisp of Heart-Eroding Venom, letting it creep along the deck toward Qian Renxue's feet...

Mu Junyu looked at Qian Renxue's cold, arrogant back, a flash of cunning in his eyes.

He spoke with feigned innocence.

"Sister Xue, my martial soul can assist in cultivation, you know. Would you like to try it together?"

Qian Renxue didn't turn her head, her long golden hair fluttering in the wind, her tone as cold as water.

Yue Guan, hearing this, turned around and looked at Mu Junyu with great interest.

"Little Mu's Heart-Eroding Venom does indeed have its unique qualities. Her Highness Xue, if you were to cultivate together, it would be beneficial for both of you."

He gently persuaded her.

"The Pope often cultivates together with little Mu as well."

Great assist, Yue Guan! Mu Junyu thought, feeling excited.

Qian Renxue's body stiffened noticeably. Mu Junyu keenly captured this reaction and chuckled inwardly.

It seems mentioning her mother still has the greatest impact on her emotions.

"Who would want to be with a brat like..."

Before Qian Renxue could finish her sentence, the flying boat suddenly jolted.

Mu Junyu seized the opportunity to "accidentally" lunge toward her, his hands wrapping perfectly around her slender waist.

"Sister, save me!"

Mu Junyu pressed his entire body against Qian Renxue's back, burying his face in her golden hair and greedily inhaling that scent of gardenias.

At the same time, a wisp of Heart-Eroding Venom had already silently seeped into her robes.

Qian Renxue was about to fly into a rage, but she suddenly felt a warm current spreading from her waist.

The sensation was incredibly marvelous, as if every pore on her body had opened up, and the speed at which her soul power circulated had clearly increased.

She was astonished to discover that the meridians in her body, which had previously been somewhat sluggish, had become completely unobstructed under the influence of this warm current.

"This is..."

Qian Renxue was momentarily flustered and forgot to push Mu Junyu away.

Chapter 5: The Choice of the Second Soul Skill

Mu Junyu took the opportunity to increase his soul power output, and the Heart-Eroding Venom began to roam over Qian Renxue's body like countless tiny tentacles.
