Sister, Will You Come Tonight

"Hmm?"

As the sun set and the stars emerged, Li Jiuxuan sat cross-legged on his bed as usual, cultivating his mental power.

Just as he was about to finish his meditation, he faintly sensed a strange trace of energy emerging within his body!

Although it was also an Ultimate Ice attribute, it differed from the domineering aura of the Ice Dragon King; it was light, graceful, and evidently much softer and more nourishing.

Li Jiuxuan frowned. This clearly contradicted the extreme, aggressive nature of the Ice Dragon King's power!

Even the Wind-Snow Tyrant Dragon possessed a far more ferocious aura; how could this be so delicate?

He immediately withdrew from his mental world, wanting to inspect why such an aura was flowing through his body.

But the moment he opened his eyes, he was stunned!

Because...

That aura hadn't originated from within his body at all!

Instead, a slender, graceful young girl was fast asleep on his bed!

Moreover, she was clutching his waist tightly!

"Yue... Sister Yue'er!"

Li Jiuxuan looked back, dumbfounded.

Bright sunlight filtered through the window lattice, casting a soft glow over the bed and outlining the girl's delicate, moving silhouette.

Shui Yue'er had snuck into his room at some point. She was currently curled up at his side, sleeping with exceptional peace. Her long eyelashes fluttered gently, and the usual touch of willful playfulness was gone, replaced by a soft, docile vulnerability.

That trace of gentle ice energy that had left him so bewildered was flowing slowly from her, resonating and intertwining with his own ice-attribute soul power.

Clearly, they had successfully absorbed the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow!

They had refined it into Ultimate Ice power!

"Uh... Jiuxuan... are... are you done cultivating?"

Shui Yue'er was awakened by Li Jiuxuan's exclamation; she opened her eyes slowly and rubbed them.

However, she didn't feel the slightest bit awkward. Instead of getting up, she lazily leaned even closer to Li Jiuxuan, tightening her arms around his waist.

Li Jiuxuan stiffened, his ears turning bright red. "Sister Yue'er, why... why are you in my bed?"

"Sleeping..."

"I mean, why are you sleeping in my bed..."

At such close proximity, Li Jiuxuan could smell the natural, fresh fragrance of Shui Yue'er's body.

And there were two soft mounds pressing against his back...

"After absorbing the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, the ice power is too pure and too still. I don't know why, but being near you just feels so comfortable."

Shui Yue'er opened her eyes slightly, a faint, charming smile tugging at the corners of her lips.

Just as Li Jiuxuan was burning with embarrassment and at a complete loss for what to do, the bedroom door was pushed open gently.

Shui Bing'er stood there, dressed in light blue loungewear with a pale-colored cotton apron tied around her waist, holding a white porcelain bowl filled with egg custard and some cutlery.

The moment her gaze landed on the bed, a flash of shock crossed her face, followed immediately by a deep crimson flush. "Shui... Shui Yue'er, what are you doing? Get down here this instant!"

After they had finished absorbing the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow and stabilized their conditions, they had rushed over to check on Li Jiuxuan.

Thinking that this little brother of theirs was prone to forgetting sleep and food while cultivating, they had intended to make him breakfast. But as for this Shui Yue'er—not only did she not help, she had actually scrambled into Li Jiuxuan's bed!

"Sister, little Jiuxuan is so comfortable. Don't you want to come and sleep for a while too..."

Seeing Shui Bing'er walk in, Shui Yue'er smiled lazily and offered an invitation.

Shui Bing'er was both embarrassed and angry. She strode to the bedside, glaring at her shameless sister with clear eyes, and scolded, "Have you no shame? How long do you intend to keep hugging him! Let go of Jiuxuan and get down here right now!"

Instead, Shui Yue'er narrowed her eyes lazily, acting like a clingy little fox. Her arms remained tightly locked around Li Jiuxuan's waist, and she even rubbed her head contentedly against his back. "I don't want to. Jiuxuan smells so good, and his ice power is so comfortable to be around. Let me lie here a little longer..."

"Si... Sister..."

Li Jiuxuan's mind was a mess. His breathing was rapid, his eyes darting around in a panic as he looked innocently at Shui Bing'er.

It wasn't that he wanted this; his sister was the one insisting...

Shui Bing'er glared at Li Jiuxuan, then, seeing that Shui Yue'er was completely unmoved and refusing to leave the bed, she used the cutlery in her hand to give Shui Yue'er's bottom a sharp smack. "Shui Yue'er! Have you no shame? If you don't get down, I'll freeze you solid and leave you unable to move for the entire day!"

A crisp sound echoed as the smack landed. Shui Yue'er's body trembled slightly, and she finally pouted in reluctance, slowly loosening her arms from around Li Jiuxuan.

She sat up sluggishly, her long hair disheveled over her shoulders, her eyes still heavy with lingering drowsiness. As she rubbed her eyes, she cast an indignant glance at Shui Bing'er. "I know, I know. Why are you being so fierce..."

Shui Yue'er dragged herself off the bed, her footsteps heavy with reluctance. Before leaving, she gave Li Jiuxuan's smooth cheek a sly pinch. "It's fine, Jiuxuan. I'll come back tonight..."

"You wouldn't dare!"

By the time the three of them were seated at the dining table, Li Jiuxuan's heart was still in turmoil.

He looked up at the two sisters, both dressed in loose loungewear, and the flush on his young face had yet to fully fade.

Only after being glared at by Shui Bing'er again, and being served a bowl of fragrant egg custard porridge, did he begin to laugh it off while eating, shifting the topic. "Sisters, have you both finished absorbing the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow?"

"Absorption is complete. We both possess the Ultimate Ice attribute now, and we owe it all to little Jiuxuan!" Shui Yue'er felt deeply grateful toward this little brother.

"...Mm, and our soul power has also advanced by leaps and bounds. I am now a level forty-one Soul Ancestor, and Yue'er is a level thirty-seven Soul Elder." Shui Bing'er nodded, her expression softening.

Li Jiuxuan was stunned: "Level forty-one and level thirty-seven."

"That's right. Once we finished absorbing the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow, Master took us directly to hunt soul beasts, and we each added a soul ring."

Li Jiuxuan suddenly understood.

With the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow as their foundation, his two sisters had undergone a transformation in soul power, mental strength, and physical body alike.

It could be said that their talent now rivaled the younger generation of any faction across the entire continent!

Martial Soul Hall, the Clear Sky Sect...

None were exceptions!

Shui Yue'er looked at Li Jiuxuan, her eyes filled with a look of admiration: "Little Jiuxuan is also very impressive now. After absorbing that Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, your soul power is already at level twenty-one. And you only awakened your martial soul less than five months ago!"

Li Jiuxuan gave a sheepish smile: "Just luck, pure luck..."

"Oh my, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect must be trembling in fear seeing Jiuxuan's momentum now!" Shui Yue'er immediately gloated: "In the future, my little brother will surely step into the realm of Title Douluo and will definitely change the title of the Number One Beast Martial Soul!"

Li Jiuxuan remained silent. This was only the beginning; the grudge between him and the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Clan was far from over.

He would not rest until he had avenged the massacre of his village!

"Speaking of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Clan, Jiuxuan, you must be careful in the future."

Shui Bing'er warned him at this moment: "Although the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Clan hasn't come to cause trouble for the Skywater Sect this month, they certainly won't let this go. According to Master's deduction, their sect master, Yu Yuanzhen, is likely occupied with something or in seclusion, which is why they didn't immediately retaliate against the Skywater Sect after Yu Luomian's death."
