Shy Ning Rongrong

Seeing Li Luo submerge his bare body into the bathtub, Ning Rongrong's face instantly flushed red. She let out a dainty cry before raising her hands to cover her eyes.

"Ah!"

Yet, curiosity got the better of her, and she opened a tiny gap between her fingers, hoping to sneak a peek at Li Luo's physique.

However, Li Luo had already submerged his entire body into the tub, and with rose petals floating on the surface of the water, her view was completely blocked. She couldn't see a thing.

Just as Ning Rongrong was gauging the size of the tub and considering whether she should bathe with Li Luo, Xiao Wu had already skillfully shed her clothes and stepped into the water.

Li Luo lay against the edge of the tub while Xiao Wu expertly scrubbed his back.

Seeing this, Ning Rongrong felt a bit indignant. How could she let Xiao Wu beat her to such intimate contact with Brother Li Luo?

Moreover, looking at Xiao Wu's natural, practiced expression and movements, Ning Rongrong could tell that Li Luo and Xiao Wu had been doing this for a long time.

Ning Rongrong felt a sudden pang of jealousy. She was, after all, the daughter of the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

On the Douluo Continent, almost no one could compare to her status; she had always been accustomed to being waited on hand and foot, commanding the wind and rain, and having everything she desired.

But today, she had actually fallen behind in the race to get close to Li Luo. How could she allow that?

"Hmph!" Ning Rongrong let out a soft snort. Refusing to be outdone, she shed her clothes and plunged headlong into the bathtub.

Unlike Xiao Wu, who was dutifully scrubbing Li Luo's back, Ning Rongrong dove straight into Li Luo's arms, washing the other parts of his body.

To be honest, the scene was truly quite sultry.

People on the Douluo Continent matured early; Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong had already blossomed into young women, graceful and tall, no longer the little girls they once were.

With two great beauties pressed naked against his body, it was impossible not to feel something.

Li Luo felt a stir of desire, but he forcefully suppressed it.

He could not bring himself to harm these girls.

No matter how mature or beautiful Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong appeared, they were still too young for that.

Li Luo didn't want to be electrocuted, nor did he want to suffer a 7.62mm acute iron poisoning, so after washing up, he quickly wrapped himself in a bath towel to hide his restless urges.

As for Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, they didn't actually have those kinds of thoughts.

Well, Xiao Wu did have the desire to "eat" Li Luo, after all, she had been bold enough to touch him six years ago.

But Ning Rongrong was simply caught up in a petty rivalry with Xiao Wu; her mind wasn't filled with the same lewd thoughts as Xiao Wu's.

After drying himself off, Li Luo also helped Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong wipe the water from their bodies.

Xiao Wu was very natural about facing Li Luo, her expression showing not a ripple of hesitation.

But Ning Rongrong was different. Although she had bravely taken the first step by rushing into the tub to be face-to-face with Li Luo, she felt shy when he actually touched her skin.

However, seeing Xiao Wu so calm and composed—even glancing at her with a provocative look from time to time—her competitive spirit flared up again.

Hmph, what's the big deal? Ning Rongrong, you can do this!

Don't you love Brother Li Luo the most? You're going to be his wife when you grow up. It's just a simple rubdown, what is there to be afraid of?

Go for it!

That was what Ning Rongrong thought, but when Li Luo's soft towel finally touched her, she couldn't help but tense up, her cheeks turning as red as a ripe apple.

Still, although she was shy, she didn't fidget, patiently and quietly letting Li Luo wipe her wet body.

Soon, Li Luo, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong were all dried off, and it was time to head to bed.

Li Luo spread his arms wide, pulled Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong into his embrace, and flopped onto the bed, covering them with the quilt and blowing out the candle.

The three of them drifted off into dreamland together.

Dawn broke. Last night was a peaceful one; nothing happened.

Truly.

This morning, Li Luo unexpectedly didn't wake up early to practice the Purple Demon Eye. It wasn't out of laziness, but because he simply couldn't move.

When Li Luo woke up, he felt two heavy weights pressing down on his body.

Opening his eyes, he discovered Ning Rongrong draped over him like an octopus, hugging him tightly.

Xiao Wu wasn't to be outdone, clinging firmly to his arm while murmuring in her sleep.

"Carrot... such a big carrot."

As she spoke, she bit down on Li Luo's arm. Fortunately, Li Luo's physical constitution was incredibly tough; Xiao Wu's bite was neither painful nor itchy, and it didn't even leave a tooth mark.

Instead, Xiao Wu ended up with a toothache from Li Luo's solid muscles.

"Hiss!" She let out a pained sound, which finally woke her up.

But only her body had awakened; her mind was still hazy. Xiao Wu didn't open her eyes, choosing instead to continue hugging Li Luo's arm and snoring softly.

Ning Rongrong remained like an octopus, sprawled across Li Luo's chest, holding him tight.

Li Luo could not move and could only continue to indulge in the lap of luxury; it was not until the sun was high in the sky and the two little sleepyheads woke up that he finally regained his freedom.

After washing up and dressing, Li Luo stepped on his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and arrived at the roof of the Rose Hotel, where Tang San was already waiting.

Tang San, who had slept alone, had no one to hinder his rising, so he had come to the roof of the Rose Hotel early to refine the first ray of purple energy from the morning sun and cultivate his Purple Demon Eye.

By the time Li Luo arrived, the sun had already risen and was somewhat blinding, meaning Tang San's cultivation of the Purple Demon Eye was nearly complete.

Tang San stopped staring at the sun, lowered his head, and blinked his eyes, which felt a bit dry from the prolonged exposure.

Then, a flash of purple light flickered across his eyes. Tang San looked at Li Luo with a joyful expression; he felt no resentment that Li Luo had been unable to extricate himself from the lap of luxury, but was instead happy that Li Luo had come to find him immediately after waking up.

Just what had he been conditioned into?

"Brother Luo!"

Tang San smiled and spoke.

"Xiao San, we are heading to a place called Shrek Academy today. Pack your things; we'll be leaving in a while."

After Li Luo and the others packed their luggage and stored it in their Soul Tool, they left the Rose Hotel, grabbed breakfast on the street, and then headed toward a remote little village.

Not long after entering the village, a dilapidated gate appeared before Li Luo and his group.

Above the dilapidated gate hung a dilapidated plaque, on which five crooked characters were written—Shrek Academy.

In front of the words Shrek Academy was a drawing of a strange soul beast's head, green and looking quite comical.

In front of the gate, an elderly man who looked very capable sat on a dilapidated bench, with a dilapidated table placed before him.

A thirteen-year-old child stood in front of the table, extending his arm to place it on the surface as two yellow soul rings rose from his body.

"Unqualified. You are too old."

The old man spoke, his tone completely indifferent.
