Massaging Bibi Dong's Shoulders
Not yet.
Qian Xunji stood up, and the sea breeze blew in her face, carrying a salty and damp scent.
He gazed at the few small islands faintly visible on the distant sea, then suddenly turned around and stretched out his hand to the mother and daughter. "Want to go for a swim? It's such a waste to come all this way to the deep sea and just go back like this."
Bibi Dong looked at Qian Renxue in her arms and raised an eyebrow slightly. "Is Xiao Xue alright?"
Qian Renxue stood with her hands on her hips, her face full of defiance. "I am Soul King, mere seawater is no problem!"
"Okay, let's go into the sea then."
Qian Xunji was the first to take off his outer robe, fold it neatly, and put it in the Angel Ring.
Bibi Dong also stood up, reached out and untied the hair tie that had been binding her hair all day, letting her long, silvery-white hair fall down. Then she took off her outer garment, revealing the petticoat underneath.
Qian Renxue was the most efficient; she quickly took off her coat, stood on the shark's back, and waved to her parents. "I'm going down now!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she plunged into the sea, disappearing completely into the clear, deep blue water.
A few seconds later, she surfaced from the sea a dozen meters away, wiped the water off her face, and shouted to them, "It's so refreshing! Mom and Dad, come down quickly!"
Then, Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong jumped into the sea one after the other.
When Qian Xunji entered the water, he barely splashed any water, Bibi Dong was deliberately splashed with water all over her face.
Xiao Bai watched the family of three frolicking in the sea and felt an irresistible urge to join them.
She swam over to Qian Xunji and asked, "Shall we have a race? From here to that island over there, let's see who can swim the fastest!"
Qian Xunji pondered: A 100,000-year-old Sea Soul Beast and a Demigod- level powerhouse, this competition is actually quite fair.
"Alright, Dong'er, you be the referee."
Bibi Dong, holding Qian Renxue, stepped onto the water and nodded.
"The starting point is here, the destination is that island, ready—"
Xiao Bai and Qian Xunji simultaneously struck their poses.
Xiao Bai sank completely into the water, with only a small patch of silver-gray fin visible on its back, poised to pounce.
"Start!"
The moment the words left his mouth, Xiao Bai burst forth from the waves like a torpedo.
Her speed was extremely fast. Among the 100,000-year-old Sea Soul Beast, the Demon Soul Great White Shark was already among the fastest. When she sprinted at full speed, she was almost invisible, and only a straight white tail could be seen rapidly extending on the sea surface.
But Qian Xunji was even faster, skimming across the sea like a golden lightning bolt.
Soul Power surged into his limbs, and his entire body became blurry.
Qian Renxue cupped her hands into a megaphone shape and shouted into the distance, "Go, Dad! Go, Xiao Bai!"
Bibi Dong gazed at the two figures, one gold and one white, moving swiftly across the sea in the distance.
"Let's go too."
She picked up Qian Renxue, let her daughter hug her neck, then gathered her Soul Power beneath her feet and flew towards the island, skimming the sea surface.
On the island, a beach surrounds several crooked coconut trees.
When Bibi Dong carried Qian Renxue to the shore, Qian Xunji had already arrived and was sitting cross-legged on the beach, wringing the water out of his hair.
Xiao Bai lay panting in the shallow water beside him, protesting, "He cheated! He used his Soul Power!"
"I am human, you are Sea Soul Beast, it would be unfair if I didn't use my Soul Power."
"Besides, you didn't say we can't use Soul Power." Qian Xunji shrugged.
"Don't worry about Xiao Bai, he just likes to be a rascal."
After saying that, Bibi Dong carried Qian Renxue onto the beach and bent down to put her daughter down.
Qian Xunji glanced at the white sand and blue sea, and suddenly felt it would be a pity to go back so soon, so he asked, "Why don't we stay here for a while before going back?"
Bibi Dong nodded, "Sure, then stay here and play for a few days."
Qian Renxue was already squatting on the beach, picking up seashells, and without looking up, she shouted, "Want some!"
Qian Xunji then looked at Xiao Bai, who was lying in the shallow water. "And you?"
"Sure, there's nothing to do back home anyway."
"But you can only stay in the water, right?"
Who said that?
"We Demon Soul Great White Shark, once we reach the 100,000-year level, can temporarily transform into a half-human form, but we don't use it much normally. You just wait."
As she spoke, she sank into the water, and a layer of silvery-blue light appeared beneath the surface.
The halo swirled in the water for a moment, and then a figure stood up from the shallows.
Water droplets slid down her shoulders, first onto her wet blue hair, then her slender waist, and then onto a pair of long legs that had transformed from a fish tail.
She looked down at her feet, wiggled her toes a little awkwardly, then looked up and grinned at the family on the shore.
She looked to be around twenty years old, with fair skin and features that exuded a natural sweetness.
Round eyes, curved eyebrows, and dimples when she smiles.
"How about it?"
She spun around on the beach, wobbled a little, and quickly stretched out her arms to regain her balance.
Qian Renxue looked up at her. "Xiao Bai is so pretty!"
Xiao Bai was a little embarrassed by the praise and scratched his wet head.
At the same time, Qian Xunji mentally summoned the system and requested some beach supplies.
For example, the system readily accepted the requests for sun umbrellas, grills, and lounge chairs, placing them into the Angel Ring.
"Dad, I want to drink coconut!" Qian Renxue pointed to the few crooked coconut trees not far away.
"Leave it to me."
Xiao Bai White walked barefoot on the white sand to the coconut tree, looked up, and then leaped into the air.
Her jumping ability was amazing; she leaped to the top of the treetop, three or four meters high, deftly twisted off a few coconuts, and landed steadily on the beach with them in her arms.
She ran her finger across the coconut shell, and the hard shell opened as easily as paper. Then she handed it to Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue held the coconut in both hands, tilted her head back, and took a sip, the coconut juice dripping down her chin.
She wiped it with her sleeve. "So sweet! Xiao Bai, you should try some too!"
Xiao Bai opened one for herself and took a sip, imitating her.
For a moment, the two girls, one nine years old and the other ten thousand years old, were happily drinking on the beach, taking turns sips.
After finishing their coconut water, Qian Renxue dragged Xiao Bai along to catch fish.
Although Xiao Bai has transformed into human form, she is still the overlord of the sea at heart. She steps barefoot into the seawater and with a flick of her finger, a plump sea fish leaps out of the water and falls into her palm.
Under a parasol not far away, Qian Xunji leaned back in a deck chair, sipping coconut juice and watching his daughter's laughter as she pulled Xiao Bai along, catching fish and playing in the water on the beach. He breathed a sigh of contentment.
Bibi Dong lay on the recliner next to him, her long hair spread out on her smooth back, the straps of her petticoat loosely draped over her shoulders.
My shoulders are a little sore.
"Xunji, please give me a massage."
"Okay, Technician 9527 is happy to assist you."
"What are you saying about 9527? Hurry up!"
Then, Qian Xunji sat up, moved to the side of her recliner, placed her ten fingers on both sides of her shoulders and neck, and began to massage with moderate force.
Bibi Dong's skin was slightly cool and smooth to the touch, and her muscles gradually softened under his fingertips.
She let out a soft, contented groan and buried her face in her crossed arms.
After pressing for a while, someone's hands started to wander.
Bibi Dong stiffened, glaring at him through the gap in her arms, and said in a low voice, "Are you looking for a beating? Xiao Bai and Xiao Xue are here."
