Now that's the art of subtle framing!

At this moment, Mu En is playing the role of an empty-nest elderly person, lying lazily in a deck chair by the Dormitory entrance, basking in the sun.

Sensing that familiar presence, Mu En raised his eyelids, a barely perceptible glint of light flashing in his cloudy eyes.

"Level 50 Soul Power? You're quite the young talent." Mu En chuckled silently.

The moment Ice Empress saw Mu En, he immediately shrank into Xiang Jun's arms.

Only after Mu En's figure completely disappeared did she breathe a heavy sigh of relief. She quickly used telepathy to tell Xiang Jun, her voice still tinged with lingering fear. "You little punk, that old human man's strength was terrifying!"

Now Ice Empress finally understands why Xiang Jun used the Sea God's Light to conceal his aura; the human world is truly full of hidden talents.

Xiang Jun simply smiled. There were two other terrifying beings like Mu En in the Holy Spirit Cult.

Xiang Jun hurried to the front of Dormitory 108 and eagerly opened the door, but the scene that greeted him made him freeze in place.

"You inherently evil brat Huo Yuxi, this princess will personally bring you to justice!"

"Wu... Sister Wutong, fighting is fighting, but give me some space!"

The two were locked in a fierce struggle on Xiang Jun's small bed. Tang Wutong lay behind Huo Yuxi, her jade-like arms tightly locking the neck of the person in front of her, and even her expression became somewhat ferocious.

As for Huo Yuxi, her face flushed red as she vaguely saw her deceased Mom standing in front of the door, smiling and waving at her.

Xiang Jun stared at the two of them with a strange expression, and asked in a cryptic tone, "What are you two doing?"

Huh? Xiang Jun!

Upon seeing the figure she had longed for right before her eyes, Tang Wutong, whose face had been contorted with rage, instantly brightened up. She quickly released Huo Yuxi and leaped high off the bed.

"Xiang Jun, catch me!"

Watching the graceful figure leap towards her, Xiang Jun smiled and opened her arms.

A delicate body was drawn into her arms, their figures pressed tightly together. Inhaling that familiar, sweet fragrance, Xiang Jun, who had been smiling, suddenly froze.

Something's not right, nine out of ten things are wrong!

You are not Tang Wutong, who are you?!

The pressure from her chest made Xiang Jun feel suffocated; when had Tang Wutong ever been this size!

Ice Empress:!!!

Ice Empress, who was nestled in Xiang Jun's arms and secretly observing his surroundings, suddenly felt a blackout before his eyes, followed by a pair of unusually exaggerated pectoral muscles descending from the sky and pressing down on his head.

Ahhh!

You despicable human, you're practically asking for death!

Enraged by the ultimate humiliation, Ice Empress was about to use his Ultimate Ice to teach this arrogant human girl a lesson when a massive, golden Giant Dragon suddenly appeared out of nowhere in his Divine Sense!

The Giant Dragon's eyes were bloodshot, its body was covered in golden scales, and its length of several thousand feet seemed to constantly release a savage aura that threatened to Destruction everything.

Ice Empress's previously furious expression froze, and her aura instantly deflated.

The terrifying sense of oppression emanating from the depths of her bloodline put even more pressure on her than on Poseidon.

Ice Empress huddled in Xiang Jun's arms, trembling, feeling like crying but unable to shed a tear.

Waaaaah, the human world is so scary, I want to go back to the Far North...

"Hehehe, Xiang Jun, have you missed this princess?" Tang Wutong buried her pretty face in Xiang Jun's neck, frantically inhaling the familiar scent that intoxicated her, and kept letting out bursts of silly laughter.

The weight on Xiang Jun's chest rubbed against her chest, and Tang Wutong, who had been looking infatuated, froze, as if she had realized something.

Huh, what's this?

Tang Wutong blinked in confusion, then reached her arm inside Xiang Jun's trench coat.

"Wait, no!"

Upon noticing Tang Wutong's actions, Xiang Jun's pupils constricted sharply, but it was too late to reach out and stop her.

"Huh, what's this... a little scorpion? Xiang Jun, when did you start liking pets? But you know what, this little guy is quite pretty."

Tang Wutong pulled a small, exquisite scorpion from Xiang Jun's bosom and was now examining it with great curiosity.

Go away! Don't come any closer!!!

As the human girl drew ever closer, Ice Empress felt an even stronger pressure emanating from the depths of her heart, causing her small body to tremble uncontrollably.

Upon seeing this, Xiang Jun quickly stuffed the ice into Ice Empress's arms again.

"Ah, this little guy might be a bit shy." Xiang Jun remained outwardly calm, but a hint of suspicion flashed in her eyes.

Wait a minute, given Ice Empress's personality, Tang Wutong's offensive behavior should have already earned her a thunderous elbow strike. What on earth is going on?

There's a secret!

Xiang Jun's gaze swept back and forth over Tang Wutong. He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he could sense a faint Dragon Might emanating from her.

Not only did his aura surge dramatically, but the weight on his chest also became considerably heavier.

On the other side, Huo Yuxi, now freed from her restraints, felt as if she had come back to life. After tidying her somewhat disheveled clothes, she blushed and approached Xiang Jun, saying, "Big Brother Xiang Jun, it's been a long time. Welcome back."

"Yes, Yu Xi, it's been a long time." Xiang Jun smiled and ruffled Huo Yuxi's hair, her tone ambiguous.

How come Tang Wutong has changed so much after I went out, and even Huo Yuxi has reverted to wearing women's clothing?

Tang Wutong, who had initially greeted Huo Yuxi with a smile, suddenly became inexplicably surprised upon seeing her, and said in a resentful tone, "Xiang Jun, don't you plan to explain this to me, the princess?"

Tang Wutong wrinkled her little nose in grievance. As long as Xiang Jun's reason was reasonable, she would reluctantly forgive him.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Jun immediately became serious and prepared to explain in detail.

"Actually, I can explain it to you..."

"I won't listen! I won't listen!"

Xiang Jun:?

Snap!

A crisp slap rang out, and Tang Wutong's face stiffened as her little bottom was hit hard, followed by an alluring blush.

"Will you listen to me this time?"

"You, you say it."

Seeing that Tang Wutong had calmed down again, Xiang Jun nodded in satisfaction.

There was no embellishment whatsoever; after all, Huo Gua's childhood was miserable enough, so at most, some subtle exaggeration was used.

As Xiang Jun described it, Tang Wutong's expression gradually changed from confusion to astonishment, then to pity, and finally to complete anger.

Even Huo Yuxi sniffed faintly.

Did I really have such a miserable childhood?

"Yu Xi, I misunderstood you."

Tang Wutong guiltily rubbed Huo Yuxi's head, then angrily said, "Your father is such a bastard! He's even worse than Xiang Jun! He's never cared about you and your mother!"
