"What did you do to me?"
After seeing the pink rabbit drift out of her body and crash into Jiang Li's Martial Soul,
Xiao Wu was shocked to discover that all the hostility she had felt toward Jiang Li had vanished. She immediately questioned him.
"My name is Jiang Li. Remember it." Jiang Li placed a hand on Xiao Wu's head and rubbed it. "From today onward, you're my rabbit."
Xiao Wu bared her teeth, revealing a pair of adorable rabbit teeth as she glared fiercely at Jiang Li.
I, Sister Xiao Wu, will never be anyone's slave!
"Congratulations, little Jiang Li. You finally tamed this cute little rabbit." Qian Renxue floated over and offered her congratulations.
"Who are you?!"
Qian Renxue's sudden appearance gave Xiao Wu quite a fright.
Her first thought was that this person must have overheard the conversation between her and Jiang Li and learned that she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form.
She immediately turned around and glared viciously at Qian Renxue with a "ferocious" look.
"You can see me?"
Rather than being startled, Qian Renxue was delighted. She circled Xiao Wu several times.
Xiao Wu said nothing, merely staring at Qian Renxue as though she were an idiot.
When she saw Xiao Wu's gaze continuously following her movements, Qian Renxue finally confirmed that Xiao Wu truly could see her.
Although Xiao Wu's gaze was rather offensive, the overjoyed Qian Renxue could not be bothered to argue with the little rabbit. Instead, she stroked her chin and said to Jiang Li with great interest, "It seems that anything contracted to you can see me."
This was a good thing. Attached to Jiang Li's Martial Soul, she normally could neither cultivate nor stray too far from him. Moreover, Jiang Li was the only person who could see her.
Thus, aside from teasing little Jiang Li now and then, she had no other entertainment.
Yet Jiang Li still had to cultivate and increase his Soul Power, so most of the time, she could only stare blankly in boredom.
But now things were different. Another person, Xiao Wu, could see her. She would have someone else to talk to and tease in the future.
Qian Renxue grinned and suggested, "Little Jiang Li, why don't you contract a few more Soul Masters?"
Had she known that those contracted to Jiang Li could also see her, she would have urged him to contract others as soon as he obtained his first Soul Ring.
"Go play somewhere else."
Jiang Li rejected Qian Renxue's unreasonable suggestion without even thinking.
What a joke. This contract ability concerned his future. Better to lack than to accept indiscriminately.
How could he casually form contracts with people just to relieve Qian Renxue's boredom?
"I was only saying it casually. I care deeply about little Jiang Li's future too. How could I possibly do anything that would harm your talent?"
Qian Renxue blinked, floated behind Jiang Li, and pretended she was about to massage his shoulders to curry favor with him. She spoke with a cheeky grin.
There was no trace of the goddess-like bearing she would display in the future when confronting the golden-haired Qian Renxue during the God Trial.
"Who is she?" Xiao Wu asked, pointing at Qian Renxue.
Before Jiang Li could answer, Qian Renxue floated before Xiao Wu and said teasingly, "I'm little Jiang Li's future wife, little rabbit."
"By status, since you're little Jiang Li's pet, you should call me Mistress."
"Pah, don't even think about it!" Xiao Wu spat lightly at her.
If Jiang Li had not tricked her with matters concerning her mother, she never would have signed her name on Jiang Li's Martial Soul.
But signing her name did not mean she was Jiang Li's pet.
He wanted Sister Xiao Wu to call him Master?
"Why are you his future wife while I'm a pet? I want to be his future wife too, so you'll have to call me Sister Xiao Wu."
Xiao Wu, who had only recently taken human form and clearly lacked common sense about human society, immediately snapped back at Qian Renxue out of competitiveness.
"Sure."
"Then should I congratulate you, little Jiang Li? You've gained another concubine." Qian Renxue teased Jiang Li with a playful look.
Upon hearing that, Xiao Wu immediately realized Qian Renxue had fooled her. Her pretty face flushed red as she glared at Qian Renxue. "You're his concubine. Your whole family is his concubine!"
"You really are interesting, little rabbit."
A faint smile appeared on Qian Renxue's lips. Looking at the easy-to-read Xiao Wu before her, she thought, It seems I won't be bored in the future.
"Alright, Xiao Xue, stop bullying Xiao Wu."
Seeing Xiao Wu's furiously bristling appearance, Jiang Li suspected that if he did not stop them, the two might start fighting.
Well, Qian Renxue was in a soul-body state and could neither be touched nor hit. It would be more accurate to say they might start arguing.
But Xiao Wu had once been a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and had only recently taken human form. She had probably met fewer people than Qian Renxue had dealt with. How could she possibly be Qian Renxue's match in a battle of words? She could only be bullied by Qian Renxue.
"This is Qian Renxue. Like you, she's one of my contractors."
As he spoke, Jiang Li flipped the Summoning Grimoire to Qian Renxue's page for Xiao Wu to see.
"Hmph, so you're a Soul Beast too." Xiao Wu spoke disdainfully to Qian Renxue.
In her eyes, an existence as strange as Qian Renxue could not possibly be a human Soul Master.
That meant she could only be some kind of special Soul Beast.
And Sister Xiao Wu was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who had taken human form. She was inherently superior to other Soul Beasts. No matter how special Qian Renxue was, could she be more special than Xiao Wu?
Xiao Wu casually glanced at Jiang Li's Summoning Grimoire.
Angel God inheritor!
Level-9 Limit Douluo?
No, take another look.
Angel God?!
Level-99 Limit Douluo?!!
"She's a Level-99 Limit Douluo?" Xiao Wu's first reaction was disbelief. To a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, even a Title Douluo-level Soul Master was terrifying.
As for a Level-99 Limit Douluo? That was only one level away from the godhood she had dreamed of reaching after taking human form.
"It's true, little rabbit." Qian Renxue said with a faint smile.
"I don't believe it!"
Although she said that, Xiao Wu's body unconsciously edged closer to Jiang Li.
Nor did she dare provoke Qian Renxue with overly harsh words anymore.
Xiao Wu insisted that she was not afraid; she was merely following her heart.
She still had to preserve herself to search for information about her mother.
Mm, that was right. Exactly.
Yet deep in her heart, the importance she attached to Jiang Li quietly rose several notches.
A Level-99 Limit Douluo who was an Angel God inheritor was actually protecting Jiang Li. He probably would not deceive her, would he?
Thinking this, Xiao Wu secretly raised her head and peeked at Jiang Li again.
"Since you're both my contractors, go have a proper chat first."
After saying that, Jiang Li ignored them. He picked up the Summoning Grimoire Martial Soul, intending to properly experience the Soft Bone Rabbit's power he had just obtained from Xiao Wu.
It was quite a while before Jiang Li finally came back to his senses from the Soft Bone Rabbit's power.
When he looked up, he saw Xiao Wu standing quietly beside him like a well-behaved young lady, without saying a word.
He had no idea how Qian Renxue had managed it, but since she could keep Xiao Wu in line, he was more than happy to let her do so.
Jiang Li was genuinely a little worried that Xiao Wu would grow into the foul-mouthed, uninhibited rogue rabbit she became in the original story.
"I'll take you to register at Notting Academy first." Jiang Li stretched lazily and spoke to Xiao Wu.
