As night fell...
In the Small Space above the Lake of Life...
"Tell me about your abilities~"
Gu Yuena lay languidly on Bai Tu, her breath sweet as an orchid's as she gazed into his eyes.
This time, he'd done fairly well. At least she'd been satisfied for the moment.
As usual, Bai Tu stroked Gu Yuena's long, white-silk-covered legs.
He gazed proudly at the Gu Yuena he'd brought to heel!
"My Propagation is hard to explain. Basically, I don't need to conserve energy as much anymore."
"I found a bug!"
"At the moment, I can basically do anything with it, but it takes energy!"
"As for the Power of Fate... under the influence of my body, it also wants to transform into something like Propagation, but it doesn't have enough energy."
Bai Tu spoke softly.
The Power of Fate seemed to have been stimulated by Propagation. It actually wanted to carve out another River of Fate!
But clearly, the small amount of Power of Fate he had couldn't manage that yet!
"As for my abilities, my powers as an Auspicious Beast have increased significantly. Within the area where I'm present, Soul Beasts will cultivate and grow even faster!"
"As for actively controlling Fate... I still don't really understand it."
Bai Tu breathed in the fragrance of Gu Yuena's hair.
"As for the elemental powers I've mastered, right now I only have the Five Elements, wind, and lightning. (Ice counts as water.)"
"Now that I can control these elements, I can't acquire any new ones."
Bai Tu looked a little dissatisfied.
"That's already amazing~"
Gu Yuena's alluring voice sounded beside Bai Tu's face.
"You're going to surpass me soon~"
"Don't I surpass Mistress Sister every day?"
Bai Tu grinned mischievously.
"Wrong!"
Gu Yuena twisted her body haughtily.
"I'm the one surpassing you!"
Bai Tu said nothing. He simply kissed Gu Yuena's soft cheek, utterly captivated.
"What are you planning to do next...?"
Seeing Bai Tu's attachment, Gu Yuena's gaze softened.
"Fix Mistress Sister's physical problem, then use people with great fortunes to grow stronger quickly."
Bai Tu hooked his foot around Gu Yuena's silk-covered foot, rubbing it back and forth to savor its peculiar, delicate softness.
"I'll go with you~"
Gu Yuena murmured, her restless hand wandering to Bai Tu's chest.
"I can teach you to control the elements and how to manipulate Fate a little."
"Little vixen, I'm starting to find it hard to leave you~"
Gu Yuena's hazy eyes held a hint of reproach.
"Little Fox will always love Mistress Sister..."
"Will always love Big Sister Nana..."
"Will always love Gu Yuena!"
Bai Tu turned the tables, embracing Gu Yuena and pressing her beneath him.
Hearing Bai Tu boldly call her by name, Gu Yuena blushed all over. Her alluring violet eyes gazed at Bai Tu, shimmering like water, as if inviting him closer~
"Bad fox!"
Gu Yuena closed her eyes, allowing the little fox to take the lead for the first time.
[The Chat Group is inviting a new member. Would you like to...]
Get lost!
[Preparing to add member...]
[Welcome Dugu Yan to the Goddess Chat Group!]
[Dugu Yan: What is this thing??]
[Dugu Yan: Can someone come save my grandpa! He's about to be beaten to death!]
[Qian Renxue:...]
Qian Renxue was speechless. As the one who'd set things in motion, she knew exactly what was going on!
But as long as there was room to turn things around, she wouldn't take it too far.
[Qian Renxue: Tell your grandfather to surrender. Say I sent you.]
[Qian Renxue: Don't reveal anything about the Chat Group or you'll be punished. You can tell them my name.]
[Bibi Dong: Why?]
Bibi Dong frowned at the message Xiao Xue had sent. They'd already gone through with it, so why not see it through?
[Qian Renxue: I have nothing to say to you!]
[Ah Yin: @Bai Tu, Young Master, is this the Soul Beast? Picture]
[Ah Yin: As soon as he arrived, he captured Xiao Lan and me!]
[Bi Ji: Yes, he's the Ten Thousand Demon King, a fifty-thousand-year-old Demon Eye Demon Tree.]
[Bi Ji: The Young Master just broke through the hundred-thousand-year threshold, and Mistress was protecting him. They're both exhausted and have probably gone to rest.]
Bi Ji helplessly explained things to Ah Yin.
She naturally knew what Xiao Bai and Mistress had gone off to do. After all, Mistress had previously planned to take her and Zi Ji as concubines.
But Xiao Bai hadn't seized his chance. Back then, Mistress had drained him, and he hadn't had the strength for it...
Thinking of this, Bi Ji's lips curved into a small smile.
[Dugu Yan: Thank you! Thank you, Qian Renxue!]
[Qian Renxue: Are you all right now?]
[Dugu Yan: Almost! Chrysanthemum Douluo took over my family's herb garden, then a Titled Douluo who looked like a child captured my grandfather and me.]
[ Dugu Yan: He said that since I'd mentioned your name, he could let us off this time. Besides, my grandfather isn't strong anyway.]
[Hu Liena: Pfft, pfft, pfft~]
[Hu Liena: Sorry, I couldn't help it. The new girl's having a rough time~]
[Hu Liena: Wait! Chrysanthemum Douluo? You mean Grandpa Ju?]
[Qian Renxue: @Bibi Dong, look at the troops you've trained.]
Bibi Dong's face darkened. She flew straight out of the Pope Palace and into Hu Liena's room, where Hu Liena was lying on the bed chatting in the group. Bibi Dong bound her tightly with Soul Power!
Bibi Dong angrily lifted Hu Liena's nightdress!
Smack! Smack! Smack!
[Hu Liena: Aah!]
[Dugu Yan: You're from the Spirit Hall? My grandfather has never provoked your Spirit Hall! Why are you bullying us like this!]
[Bibi Dong: Submit or die. Those are your only two choices! Chrysanthemum Douluo is letting you go this time because of Qian Renxue, but there won't be a next time!]
[Dugu Yan: I'd rather die than submit! You Spirit Hall bastards are nothing but damn thieves!]
[Dugu Yan: You hurt my grandfather and now you want to steal his herbs! No, wait! You're trying to steal our home, too!]
[Dugu Yan: Qian Renxue, I can take my grandfather and join you!]
Dugu Yan wasn't stupid. From the messages just now, she could tell that Qian Renxue had the power to stand against the Spirit Hall and was at odds with Bibi Dong!
[Qian Renxue:...]
[Bibi Dong: What? She's offering you her wholehearted loyalty. Are you still going to turn her down?]
Bibi Dong sneered. She knew Chrysanthemum Douluo had been sent by Qian Renxue to find the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, so she understood that Qian Renxue was the true mastermind behind this whole affair!
[Qian Renxue: @Dugu Yan, I can protect you and your grandfather. I have the power to do so, but...]
[Qian Renxue: I suggest you look at the earlier chat history.]
[Qian Renxue: I'll be honest: before, I didn't care about you. But now that you've joined this group, we're all sisters. I'm willing to apologize for what I did.]
[Qian Renxue: And... if you're willing to ally with me, I can give you half the credit for this operation.]
Qian Renxue looked at Bibi Dong's messages with disdain. That idiot Er Bi Dong still hadn't figured it out!
As long as Gu Yuena wasn't forcing anyone into line, the group members themselves were the most valuable resource!
The Chat Group's rule that there was no group owner, along with the vote Gu Yuena had held, had already made one thing clear!
All the members were equals—at least within the Chat Group!
Now that the Chat Group had reached level two, its members could send resources to each other through red packets!
Who knew what other abilities it might develop in the future!
That idiot Er Bi Dong's insistence on making outright enemies was unbelievably stupid!
At present, the group was roughly divided into three camps:
The Er Bi camp: Bibi Dong, Gu Liena
The Bai Xue camp: Bai Tu, Qian Renxue, Yue Liena, Gu Yuena, Bi Ji, Huo Wu, Ah Yin
Unaffiliated: Shui Bing'er, Dugu Yan
Qian Renxue thought to herself.
[Dugu Yan: I'll go read the earlier messages, then. I don't really understand what you're talking about.]
