Tricking Xiao Wu into Becoming Tang Chuan's Weapon, the Rogue Rabbit Takes Shape (Please Follow)

Lan Yin sighed inwardly.

This little girl was far too bold, wasn't she?

Should she say Xiao Wu was careless?

Or that she did not seem very bright?

She actually dared to wander openly through the human world without making any preparations to conceal her Soul Beast aura.

What if she accidentally ran into a Title Douluo on the road? Wouldn't she be captured on the spot and raised as a weapon?

Then, when needed in the future, killed for her soul ring and soul bone?

Since she was destined to become someone else's weapon sooner or later,

why couldn't that person be Tang Chuan?

One of Lan Yin's reasons for staying by Tang Chuan's side was to honor her promise to Her Majesty the Empress and help him grow stronger at any cost.

Therefore, whether Tang Chuan wanted to join Spirit Hall or was interested in this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast,

Lan Yin would do everything she could to help him.

After all, these people and forces were merely tools for Tang Chuan to increase his strength.

Forget these people and factions.

Even if Tang Chuan wanted her soul ring and soul bone, Lan Yin would choose to sacrifice herself without hesitation.

After all, from beginning to end, her gentle side would belong to Tang Chuan alone.

Meanwhile,

Xiao Wu felt around in her pocket.

She discovered that she only had around a few dozen copper soul coins left.

She could not help sighing worriedly.

A few days earlier,

after leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, she had wandered by chance to a village near Nuoding City.

A kind village chief and his wife saw that Xiao Wu resembled their deceased granddaughter and took pity on her, temporarily taking her in for several days.

Later, when they learned that Xiao Wu possessed innately full soul power,

the village chief not only gave her the village's sole work-study student slot and what little travel money he had,

but the brand-new red dress she wore had also been sewn by the elderly couple for their deceased granddaughter.

They hoped it would bless her and let her meet kindhearted people along the way.

This was also the main reason Xiao Wu had come to Nuoding City.

However, reality soon taught her what cruelty was.

In this city, everything cost money.

Taking a carriage cost money, eating cost money, and lodging cost money too.

In just one day, Xiao Wu had spent more than half her money.

She immediately realized that if she did not start being more frugal,

she might not be able to afford food in the coming days.

Just as Xiao Wu was troubled by this,

she looked up and suddenly saw a beautiful older sister seated at an open-air restaurant, smiling and waving in her direction.

Xiao Wu was drawn in by Lan Yin's gentle and amiable temperament.

She quickly lowered her guard and cautiously approached the table.

"Hello, big sister."

Xiao Wu spoke timidly, displaying none of the bearing she had as the boss lady of the junior academy in the original story.

She was clearly still nervous when facing strangers alone.

"Little sister, don't be so reserved. Sit down first. What's your name?" Lan Yin pulled over a chair for Xiao Wu, then stroked her head as she asked in a relaxed tone.

Since she had decided to reserve this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft-Boned Rabbit for Tang Chuan,

Lan Yin left her own mark on Xiao Wu so she could locate her at any time.

At the same time, she erased the Soul Beast aura from Xiao Wu's body, lest other Title Douluo discover her identity.

"My name is Xiao Wu. Wu as in dancing. My martial soul is a rabbit."

Xiao Wu answered softly, though her clear peach-blossom eyes kept glancing toward the plates of carrot dishes on the table.

Lan Yin laughed helplessly, then looked at Tang Chuan. "Xiao Chuan, I think this child seems hungry. How about..."

Hearing their conversation, Xiao Wu immediately realized that Tang Chuan was the one in charge between the two.

Tang Chuan pondered for a moment. "Sure, but I can't give it to you for free."

Xiao Wu felt somewhat uneasy and reached toward the pocket holding her copper soul coins.

"If you let me touch your rabbit ears after you finish eating, I'll treat you to a meal." Tang Chuan smiled and pushed the first dish toward her.

Xiao Wu's eyes widened. Instinctively, she touched the spot where ears would grow when she possessed her martial soul, clearly torn.

Tang Chuan immediately pushed over the second dish, and Xiao Wu began to hesitate.

He pushed over the third dish, and Xiao Wu was tempted.

He pushed all the dishes on the table over to her.

"O-Okay, but you can only touch them for a little while." Unable to resist the temptation any longer, Xiao Wu began wolfing down the food.

People's limits were like this.

Once broken once, they would keep getting lower.

Until, in the end, she would unknowingly take on Tang Chuan's shape.

After dinner,

Tang Chuan accompanied Lan Yin to buy some clothes before returning to the inn.

Xiao Wu followed after them with a blank, innocent look on her face.

"Aren't you going home?" Tang Chuan asked, amused.

"D-Didn't you say you wanted to touch my ears?" Xiao Wu had held it in all the way, and now she finally said it aloud.

"Oh, that. Don't worry about it. I only said that because I was afraid you'd be too embarrassed to eat." Tang Chuan waved his hand casually.

Xiao Wu felt both surprised and ashamed.

She had actually been worrying that Tang Chuan and Lan Yin might be bad people?

Yet they were completely wonderful people.

Xiao Wu's heart warmed, and her favorability toward the two soared like a rocket.

Not long afterward,

having finished bathing, Xiao Wu walked out of the bathroom in the nightgown Lan Yin had just bought for her.

She looked at the empty bed, then at Tang Chuan, who was lying on the second bed and yawning.

Then she lifted the blanket and slipped inside.

"What the hell? What are you doing?"

Tang Chuan, who occupied the middle of the large bed, was squeezed half a body's width aside by Xiao Wu and glared at her fiercely.

"Obviously, I'm sleeping."

Xiao Wu blinked her lively eyes and pointed at the pitch-black night outside. "It's already so late. Aren't you going to sleep?"

"Go sleep in the other bed. Men and women should keep their distance, understand?" Though Tang Chuan said this, he had no intention of driving her away.

After all, never taking the initiative, never taking responsibility, and never refusing had always been his principles in life.

"Please, I'm the girl here. I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of? It's not like I'm going to eat you."

Xiao Wu could not help pursing her lips and huffing. Her tone was both arrogant and entirely justified, with none of the timidness she had shown when they first met a few hours ago.

As expected of the Rogue Rabbit. I can't argue with her.

Amid their playful bickering, the night quickly passed.

The next day, all three of them slept until noon.

After several days of long travel, Tang Chuan finally had a rare good night's sleep.

But when he looked at Xiao Wu's adorably foolish sleeping face on his left, the smooth, snowy-white back on his right, and the nightgown scattered all over the floor, he could not help falling into deep thought.
