Gu Yuena, Qian Renxue! Open Your Hearts!

—Hmm? System! You're still alive? I thought you'd crashed!

[You're the one who crashed! Your whole family crashed! Friendly reminder! The reward for this mission is one chance to travel to another plane!]

—You're being this generous? Can you tell me in advance which world we're going to?

[The destination plane is random, and this system cannot control it. But no matter which plane it is, there may be a Godhead of Creation!]

—That sounds pretty good. By the way, can I use faction points to buy more chances?

[Once the host completes this mission, the reward will permanently appear in the System Shop!]

—I'm taking this job!

Outside the System Space, Gu Yuena felt the warm touch on top of her head, and her cheeks flushed even more.

She simply lowered her head and stared at her toes, allowing Zijun's palm to rest on her head.

A fair arm slowly rose, its index finger and thumb gently pinching Zijun's ear.

She gave it a gentle half-twist, controlling the force in her fingers perfectly!

It was neither too light nor too heavy, just enough to turn one ear red.

"Does it feel good?" Qian Renxue leaned close to Zijun's cheek, her breath fragrant as she whispered softly.

From the front, it looked as though the two were about to kiss.

"Ah! Xue... Xue'er, Xue'er, Xue'er! Be gentler! It's going to come off!"

In pain, Zijun slowly leaned his head against Qian Renxue's shoulder, both hands tightly gripping the delicate hand twisting his ear.

Still completely confused, he continued begging for mercy. "I didn't even do anything, did I? Xue'er, why are you pulling my ear?"

Her expression changed. Qian Renxue gave a cold snort, narrowed her eyes, and smiled without smiling.

"Xiao Jun, you've been getting more and more reckless lately. You even dare touch other girls without avoiding me first? Hmm!"

Hearing Qian Renxue's words, Zijun immediately cried injustice!

Fortunately, there was no one around where the three of them stood. Otherwise, this scene would definitely have left all the teachers and students in the academy dumbfounded!

Glancing sideways at the only woman present besides Qian Renxue, Zijun instantly understood.

"Classmate Gu Yuena, was it... Ah!"

Without hesitation, she reached out and grabbed Zijun's other ear, cutting off his question.

"Shut your filthy mouth! You brought this on yourself! Stupid straight man! You deserve to hurt to death!"

After tugging Zijun's other ear, Gu Yuena scolded him with an expression of frustration at his failure to meet expectations.

She let go, then walked angrily toward the second-floor area where Class Three was located.

Only after seeing Gu Yuena leave first did Qian Renxue release Zijun's ear.

Inside the classroom, Zijun was as usual—he wanted to sleep the moment he touched his desk.

His two bright-red ears looked like swollen pig ears, and they still felt faintly warm to the touch.

As they both looked at Zijun sleeping soundly on the desk, a trace of heartache flashed through the two women's eyes.

"Were we a little too heavy-handed?"

Gu Yuena reached out and touched Zijun's red, swollen ear, murmuring softly to herself.

Resting on the desk with her head tilted, Qian Renxue stared at Zijun and extended a finger to stroke his swollen left ear back and forth.

"It does look pretty painful. You like Xiao Jun too, don't you?" Qian Renxue, lying on the desk, raised her eyes toward Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena withdrew her arm, then lay on the desk as well, wrapping both arms around her flushed cheeks.

Only a pair of evasive violet eyes remained visible as she stammered out five words.

"I... I don't like him."

"The way you look right now, you're just like a tsundere girl. Your mouth says one thing, but your heart likes him so much."

Qian Renxue saw through her at a glance and said it outright without holding back.

"I know what a girl is, but what does tsundere mean?" Her red lips, hidden behind her arm, curled slightly as though she had eaten something sweet.

"How should I put it? Xiao Jun used to say it in front of me too. My personal understanding is... saying one thing while meaning another... I think? Right?"

Qian Renxue explained according to her own understanding, sounding somewhat uncertain.

Having heard this much, Gu Yuena no longer intended to awkwardly deny it.

She might as well go all the way and honestly admit it.

"I do like him! Luckily, he wasn't born among the Spirit Beasts. Otherwise, I would have had to wait another hundred thousand years or more to see him. Or perhaps I never would have."

"A hundred thousand years? What exactly have you been through?"

Suddenly intrigued, Qian Renxue sat up from the desk, leaned her left shoulder against the wall, supported her chin with her left hand, and looked at Gu Yuena with curiosity.

It was as though Gu Yuena was filled with every kind of story she loved to hear.

"Speaking of that, it all began with the God Realm..."

In another distant world—Zijun's hometown.

That place had once been my hometown as well, and my former self was also the ancestor of the Spirit Beast race.

The Dragon God!

But now, I am merely one of Father God's incarnations.

I also have a Spirit Beast who can temporarily be called my elder brother. His name is the Golden Dragon King! He is still in the God Realm.

However, the way he remains alive may be even more painful than mine.

Because he was sealed in the God Realm by Zijun's father and mother, along with three other Supreme God Kings.

As Father God's second incarnation, I was comparatively fortunate enough to land in the core region of Star Dou Forest.

Over the years, I relied on the energy of Lake of Life to heal my injuries.

It was only after meeting him that my injuries recovered to their current state.

"At first, when I learned that he was from the God Realm, I truly hated him. As for later... you've seen it yourself."

She revealed the heartfelt words hidden deep within her without reservation.

The heavy feeling in her heart also eased considerably.

"Then tell me, before Xiao Jun and I attain Divine Positions, can we easily conceive a child?"

Having heard so much about the God Realm, Qian Renxue was no longer particularly curious about that legendary place.

The only thing she cared about now was bearing children for Zijun.

Seeing the complicated expression on Qian Renxue's face—serious, urgent, and solemn—Gu Yuena shook her head and sighed, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

But Qian Renxue naturally saw the answer in her sighing expression. She frowned and lowered her head to stroke her abdomen.

Perhaps I should find Xiao Jun another good wife.

That way... the chances of having children would be much greater...

After considering it for a moment, Qian Renxue could not help glancing at Gu Yuena.

Compared with Hu Liena, the woman before her was more suited to becoming a wife.

She knew right from wrong, had a straightforward personality, and setting aside the Dragon God's memories, Gu Yuena was merely a pure blank slate.

"What's wrong with you?" Gu Yuena asked doubtfully as she looked at Qian Renxue, whose golden hair and green eyes carried a touch of mature charm amid her youthful features.

Thump, thump!

Are the girls in this Douluo World really this conservative in their thinking?

They can even accept one man having multiple wives? Xue'er, don't scare me!

I wouldn't even dare dream of this kind of family bliss!

Forget it! I'll endure a little longer! I'll pretend I didn't hear anything and keep sleeping.

Outside the gates of Suotuo City's Great Soul Arena, Yu Xiaogang and Flender had no choice but to lead the Shrek Seven Devils to register for the Great Soul Arena matches because of financial problems.

After all, the Great Soul Arena was the fastest way for independent Spirit Masters and independent teams to make money!

Although the risk of losing everything was also quite high, for independent groups, this was the only road to getting rich quickly.

"Have you all registered? From now on, this will be the place for you seven little monsters to undergo practical combat training!"

Flender pressed his index and middle fingers together and pushed up the glasses on his nose. The corners of his mouth lifted as he smiled expectantly.
