Hu Liena: Want to Take a Bath with Your Senior Sister and Cool Off?

The Lunar Jade Rabbit had completely given up resisting in the bushes.

It was surrounded by seven or eight female rabbits and pinned beneath them.

Only its two long ears remained outside, trembling faintly as if venting its displeasure.

Wave after wave of tingling sensations came through the shared nerves to Lin Yichen.

He leaned against a rock, his lips pressed into a thin line.

Did it feel good? It seemed so, but it was good at the wrong time.

"It's fine, just endure it and it'll pass..." Lin Yichen practically hummed the words.

"Lin Yichen, this aura of yours..." Chrysanthemum Douluo had already come within three steps of him.

Under the moonlight, his gaze was even more direct than it had been in the treasure vault three days ago. "So rich~~~ Ah..."

"Chrysanthemum Pass, watch your image." Compared to Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo's reaction was far less intense.

Perhaps he simply was not particularly sensitive to heavenly treasures.

But Lin Yichen had guessed correctly. Chrysanthemum Douluo was a Title Douluo, and he did not have the outrageous fourfold restraint relationship Bibi Dong had.

Naturally, he was better at resisting the aura of seduction than Bibi Dong.

It was merely the aura of heavenly treasures that made him unable to resist drawing near.

"Your martial soul is..."

"It's a detached martial soul. It possesses intelligence and can use soul skills independently."

Lin Yichen answered Ghost Douluo first, because no one had ever studied detached martial souls.

The only living person with a detached martial soul was Gangzi, and that idiot did not even know how to use it.

People did not even know what a detached martial soul was.

Ghost Douluo nodded slightly, seemingly pondering a concept he had never encountered before.

"Then the quality of your martial soul is actually quite high. It could even be called exceptional."

He tilted his head slightly, glancing at the chaotic mass of rabbits in the bushes.

Then he looked at Lin Yichen's reddened ears, and a meaningful curve appeared on his lips.

"So those rabbits were drawn here by you? But there also seems to be something on you that draws us closer."

Ghost Douluo's words were like a needle, thoroughly piercing Lin Yichen's carefully maintained mental defenses.

"In reply to you, Senior, it's a mutation effect caused by the side effects of my soul bone acting upon my martial soul. I can't control it."

A trace of a smile finally appeared on Ghost Douluo's cold face.

"Then do you know that the people in the tents have already gone to bed?"

Lin Yichen was slightly startled, seemingly unable to understand what Ghost Douluo meant.

Until his gaze drifted toward the brightly lit tents.

If his seductive aura could affect Chrysanthemum Douluo, then it could naturally affect the team members with lower cultivation as well.

Zhao Anyang and Sun Ting were both comrades who fought side by side and a couple, so right now they...

So he had become a matchmaker?

As for the single men, they had already run off alone to the other side of a stream to wash up.

They were quite clever, knowing to use cold water to ease the heat in their bodies.

But what about Hu Liena?

Lin Yichen did not see her. Perhaps, as someone with a seductive martial soul herself, she had been affected even more strongly.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo exchanged glances. After spending the past few days together, they could naturally see the relationship between the Pope's two disciples.

Especially Hu Liena's unusual attitude toward Lin Yichen, something she had never shown toward anyone else before.

The two of them coughed lightly.

"The moonlight is nice. Rest by yourself for a while. Some people should be sleeping, others should be having fun. We can't leave them unsupervised, so Chrysanthemum Pass and I will go patrol."

After saying that, Ghost Douluo slipped away with Chrysanthemum Douluo.

The traits of his Ghost martial soul allowed him to vanish without a trace.

Thus, only Lin Yichen remained, leaning alone against the rock. The night breeze swept past his burning skin, carrying the chill of the stream, but it did not take away even a fraction of the heat.

Damn it.

The commotion from the Lunar Jade Rabbit had not weakened in the slightest.

Lin Yichen even suspected that more had joined in.

A faint set of footsteps suddenly sounded behind him, light as they stepped over the grass.

He spun around sharply, though he had already vaguely guessed who it was.

Hu Liena.

She wore a thin white undershirt, with an outer robe casually draped over it. Her loose collar revealed part of her collarbone and shoulder.

Her cheeks were flushed red.

But what shocked Lin Yichen even more was that Hu Liena wore only a pair of snug blue ice-silk athletic shorts below her waist.

At one particular spot, the blue had gradually darkened.

Those eyes that were usually bright and slightly cunning were now veiled in mist. Her pupils were somewhat unfocused, and her breathing was more hurried than usual.

It's over... She got hit too...

"Junior Brother, I'm so hot. It's stuffy inside the tent, so I came out for some air."

Her voice was soft, but it carried a tenderness entirely different from usual.

Lin Yichen's left hand clenched slightly.

The tingling from the Lunar Jade Rabbit continued to creep over him intermittently.

Hu Liena was clearly affected as well, with an unnatural flush on her cheeks.

Her lips parted slightly, and her warm breath washed over his face.

More importantly, both of them were on the verge of breaking down.

The excitement transmitted from the Lunar Jade Rabbit constantly affected Lin Yichen's mind. If Hu Liena kept moving...

He had no confidence that he could keep himself under control.

"This aura of yours... It's making me feel so awful..."

Hu Liena gently wrapped her arms around Lin Yichen's waist and pressed her head against his chest.

The sound of his pounding heartbeat seemed to form a rhythm with hers.

"You should take responsibility for me." Her voice was muffled against his shoulder.

Lin Yichen lowered his head to look at the top of her hair and gave a bitter smile.

He casually stroked her hair. It was quite smooth.

"My martial soul seems to be in the same state as me."

Hu Liena laughed softly in his arms, seemingly taking a little pleasure in his misfortune.

"Then... do you think I would treat you the way those female rabbits are treating your martial soul?"

Lin Yichen: "???"

Seemingly sensing Lin Yichen's surprise, Hu Liena giggled twice.

But the tremor at the end of her voice had not faded at all.

"Your Senior Sister isn't that casual of a person..."

"It's just that..."

"Hold me for a while."

Her voice was very soft, its tone seeming to circle around his ears like a melody, reaching straight into his soul.

Lin Yichen held her tightly, and the heat of Hu Liena's body washed over him like a tide.

"Do you want... to take a bath with your Senior Sister? Cool off a little?"

Lin Yichen remained silent, but Hu Liena gave him no chance to hesitate.

In an instant, offense and defense switched places. She pulled him toward the stream and splashed into the water.

They were far from Xie Yue and the others, downstream along the creek. The small grove beside the stream blocked the view, creating a hazy atmosphere.

Lin Yichen was helpless, but the feeling was familiar.

It was simply swimming with a different person.

He would be able to see her soon. Was she doing well?

Just as Lin Yichen was lost in thought, Hu Liena's body pressed against his.

With a splash, she pushed him into the water, and their heads drew closer... closer...

Lin Yichen seemed to say something, but his words were swallowed by the splashing water and vanished into the silent night.

In the pitch-black night, within the sweltering tents, among the feverish bushes, and downstream in the chilly creek, an unending tenderness lingered.
