"Thud!"
A noise came from the doorway.
Chen Jue frowned and immediately walked over.
When he opened the door and saw Hu Liena sitting on the floor in a daze, his brow relaxed, and a smile spread across his face.
"You managed to fall over just walking? You're such a silly little fox!"
Hu Liena gave a quiet huff, then slowly stood up without responding to his words.
Chen Jue keenly caught the tears glimmering in her eyes. An indescribable emotion seemed hidden in that watery sheen.
"What's wrong? Who upset you? Tell me, and I'll beat him up for you."
Then Chen Jue tilted his head and asked her.
Unable to stop her tears, Hu Liena pressed her lips together, her voice choked with sobs.
"Chen, are you going to find Qian Renxue?"
"Do you not like me?"
Chen Jue looked utterly baffled.
When did I ever say I was going to find Qian Renxue?
And when did I ever say I didn't like you?
"What nonsense are you talking about, little fox?"
Hu Liena wiped away her tears as she sobbed, saying in a trembling voice, "Didn't you say it yourself?"
"Didn't you say you were leaving?"
"Who else would you go to besides Xiao Xue?"
"If you're going to find Xiao Xue, that means you don't like me!"
Hu Liena blurted it all out in one breath, her cheeks flushing. Even her little buns quivered with anger!
Chen Jue gave a wry chuckle. Clearly, the little fox had overheard him talking to himself earlier.
Who knew this little fox liked eavesdropping through door cracks!
And she certainly had quite an imagination!
"You're still laughing! Boo-hoo!"
Hu Liena cried even harder, her tears flowing like a gushing spring.
Chen Jue stepped forward, pressed Hu Liena against the wall, and kissed her deeply.
Hu Liena's eyes widened. She hadn't expected Chen Jue to be so direct.
[Ding! Target: Hu Liena!] [Depth of intimacy: 50%]
"Phew..."
Before long, their lips parted.
Flushed, Hu Liena fell into his arms, her breath fragrant as orchids.
"What are you doing? Don't you dislike me? Why... ah!"
Just then, Chen Jue scooped Hu Liena up in a bridal carry.
He pressed his lips together, then curled them into a smile.
"Didn't you say I don't like you? Then I'll show you whether I like you or not!"
Chen Jue walked straight into the room and laid her on the bed.
Hu Liena stared at Chen Jue's handsome face. She already knew what he was about to do!
Her breathing quickened, and her voice trembled slightly.
"Chen... it's my first time... please be gentle..."
In the middle of the night!
[Ding! Target: Hu Liena!] [Depth of intimacy: 80%] [Rewards: Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring! 10,000 Gold Soul Coins!]
The next morning.
Chen Jue leisurely opened his eyes and saw Hu Liena curled up beside him. Like a languid cat in the morning light, she nestled lightly against him, warm and affectionate.
Her bright eyes had awakened before his, sparkling with curiosity and anticipation.
Her fingertips brushed his face with a barely perceptible tenderness.
"Where did you say you were going today last night? Can you take me with you?"
Her voice was as faint as a silken thread, yet every word was clear, revealing a persistence and longing that brooked no refusal.
Chen Jue smiled softly, his eyes full of affection and tenderness.
"Sure, but we won't be coming back anytime soon!"
"All right!"
Hu Liena readily agreed. Before she had finished speaking, she quietly shifted her body, trying to find a more comfortable position.
Unexpectedly, that movement brought them closer together, and a peculiar atmosphere instantly filled the air.
Then... Hu Liena's face turned red in an instant.
"You're being naughty, little fox. Did you do that on purpose...?"
Chen Jue asked with a wicked grin.
"No...!"
The Supreme Pontiff's Palace.
Bibi Dong sat quietly in the seat of honor, her eyes gently closed, as though lost in thought.
A light touch of makeup on her cheeks added to her alluring beauty.
She wore a brand-new pontiff's robe.
The robe hugged her voluptuous figure like a ripe fruit exuding a tempting fragrance, making one unable to resist wanting a closer taste.
Before long, she opened her eyes and gave a soft huff.
"That disciple of mine is so naughty. He coaxed that young girl into bed so easily!"
She had just scanned the area with her spiritual power. Had she not looked, all would have been well; once she did, she was utterly dumbfounded.
Hu Liena and her disciple were actually in bed together!
She lowered her head slightly, her gaze inadvertently falling on the black stockings she wore.
Beneath her voluminous pontiff's robe, the black stockings tightly encased her shapely legs, their elegant, flowing lines enough to set anyone's blood racing.
"My disciple said I would look good dressed like this, but do I really?" Bibi Dong murmured.
Two hours later...
Chen Jue brought Hu Liena to the Supreme Pontiff's Palace.
Seeing Bibi Dong wearing black stockings before him, Chen Jue instantly felt a rush of heat at the tip of his nose.
Chen Jue murmured, "Holy crap... I only mentioned it in passing. I never thought..."
Bibi Dong followed Chen Jue's gaze to her black stockings, and her lovely face flushed.
You little lecher! she thought.
Then she composed herself and said, "My disciple, why have you come here instead of focusing on your cultivation today? Is something the matter?"
Chen Jue's mouth felt a little dry. He averted his gaze before answering, "I want to leave Spirit Hall and venture out into the world!"
Bibi Dong froze, confusion showing in her eyes.
"Why? Am I not qualified to teach you?"
Chen Jue shook his head. "That's not it!"
"I've always been under Spirit Hall's protection. Although I can grow stronger here, I haven't faced enough setbacks."
"A strong person must experience setbacks! Otherwise, when they encounter them later, they won't even know what to do!"
"After all, Spirit Hall can't protect me for the rest of my life!"
"So I want to venture out and make a name for myself!"
Bibi Dong was taken aback. She hadn't expected Chen Jue to have such insight.
It seems my disciple isn't just a little lecher.
He's a little lecher with insight!
What she didn't know was that his so-called insight amounted to going to Shrek Academy to play Cao Cao and steal other men's women.
And his first target was Zhu Zhuqing, renowned for her baby face and enormous breasts.
Chen Jue couldn't help imagining that suffocating sensation.
At this point in the timeline, she should have been fleeing for her life.
Then I'm swooping in to steal this win! Not even Jesus can stop me-I said it!
