Seeing this, Xue Tianmo was completely stunned.

"Damn!"

"Zhu Zhuqing is this proactive?"

He marveled inwardly, never expecting Zhu Zhuqing to take the initiative and kiss him.

After all, in his impression,

Zhu Zhuqing was an icy beauty.

She had a cold temperament, spoke little, and treated everyone with indifference.

She seemed to have a layer of cold protection around her, cold on the outside but warm within.

Yet what had just happened somewhat overturned his understanding of Zhu Zhuqing.

As Xue Tianmo stood there in a daze, Zhu Zhuqing was also overwhelmed with embarrassment, her cheeks flushed red.

"I... I'll continue practicing the first level of Lingbo Weibu!"

After a moment of silence, Zhu Zhuqing spoke bashfully.

Without waiting for Xue Tianmo to reply, she resumed her practice.

Little did she know that this time, her mind was unsettled.

Not only did she make mistakes in her footwork, but her Soul Power also became chaotic.

She stumbled and fell straight to the ground!

"Ow!"

After falling, Zhu Zhuqing cried out in pain.

Hearing her, Xue Tianmo immediately snapped out of his daze and hurried over to help her up.

"I... I think I sprained my ankle."

Zhu Zhuqing's face was filled with pain.

"You sprained your ankle?"

"Let me take a look!"

As he spoke, Xue Tianmo did not waste any time and quickly helped Zhu Zhuqing sit down to one side.

Then, he took off Zhu Zhuqing's shoe, revealing her jade-like foot before his eyes.

Under the sunlight, it gave off a warm, lustrous glow, as alluring as the finest jade.

Her skin was crystal-clear and snow-white, like a work of art meticulously carved by hand.

It made one unable to resist wanting to cherish it.

Seeing Xue Tianmo staring unblinkingly at her jade-like foot, Zhu Zhuqing felt incredibly embarrassed, her face reddening like the evening clouds!

"Tianmo? What... what's wrong?"

After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Zhuqing murmured softly.

Hearing this, Xue Tianmo quickly came back to his senses.

"I'll massage it for you!"

Then, without delay, he began massaging Zhu Zhuqing's ankle.

It felt silky smooth beneath his hands.

Under Xue Tianmo's gentle touch, Zhu Zhuqing unconsciously let out soft moans.

Just then, the system's notification sounded in Xue Tianmo's mind:

Ding! Detected that the relationship between the host and Zhu Zhuqing has grown closer. Reward obtained: 10,000 Sign-in Points.

"Oh?"

Hearing the system prompt, Xue Tianmo was secretly delighted. He had not expected such an unexpected reward!

He continued massaging Zhu Zhuqing's ankle.

"All right!"

"Your foot is injured, so don't practice anymore today. Get some proper rest!"

"More haste, less speed!"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing nodded with a blush and said:

"Got it, Tianmo!"

"It's all because I got distracted just now. Otherwise, I wouldn't have sprained my ankle."

Xue Tianmo smiled faintly and replied:

"I'll carry you back to your room to rest!"

As he spoke, without waiting for Zhu Zhuqing to respond, he directly wrapped an arm around her slender waist.

With a slight exertion of strength, he lifted Zhu Zhuqing into his arms.

The sudden turn of events left Zhu Zhuqing flustered. Her mind was in complete turmoil, and her face was as red as a peach!

Without further delay, Xue Tianmo carried Zhu Zhuqing into the room.

After arriving, Xue Tianmo placed Zhu Zhuqing on the bed, then took out some medicinal ointment from the Ice Spirit Ring.

"I'll apply some medicine for you. Your ankle will recover soon."

"Mhm!"

Zhu Zhuqing softly responded, her heart pounding as though countless little deer were crashing about inside her chest.

Afterward, Xue Tianmo applied some ointment to Zhu Zhuqing's jade-like foot.

"The ointment has been applied. Rest well for now."

Xue Tianmo stood up and looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing looked at him gratefully and shyly raised her head.

"Tianmo... thank you!"

As she spoke, she suddenly reached out and wrapped her arms around Xue Tianmo's neck.

The next moment, she exerted strength through her wrists.

Before Xue Tianmo could react, he had already bent down.

At that moment, Zhu Zhuqing's fragrant lips fell upon his.

After kissing him for quite a while, Zhu Zhuqing finally released him. Without waiting for Xue Tianmo to say anything, she shyly hid beneath the blankets.

"This? Again?"

Xue Tianmo was inwardly shocked.

He had not expected the usually aloof Zhu Zhuqing to be so proactive toward him.

After standing there dazed for a moment, Xue Tianmo finally got up and walked out.

He raised his hands and looked at them, his mind still savoring the feeling of holding Zhu Zhuqing just now.

Soft and silky!

Then, Xue Tianmo lightly pursed his lips. Zhu Zhuqing's lip fragrance still lingered upon them.

"I... I really am such a scumbag!"

Afterward, Xue Tianmo took a deep breath. Without thinking further, he turned and left.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, several days went by.

Zhu Zhuqing's ankle injury had already improved.

At this moment, Xue Tianmo was reading a letter.

The sender was none other than Qian Renxue.

After reading it, Xue Tianmo frowned slightly and muttered to himself:

"She actually invited me to meet at the Heaven Dou Crown Prince's Mansion!"

After thinking for a moment, a determined look flashed in Xue Tianmo's eyes. He felt it was time to go out for a walk.

Then, Xue Tianmo bid Shui Bing'er farewell.

Before leaving, the two once again agreed to win the Soul Master championship.

Afterward, Xue Tianmo took Ice Empress and Zhu Zhuqing away from Skywater Academy and headed straight for Heaven Dou Imperial City.

The moment the three entered the imperial city, they immediately drew the attention of passersby.

Ice Empress and Zhu Zhuqing were both stunning beauties, while Xue Tianmo himself was strikingly handsome.

With the three of them walking together, they naturally stood out greatly.

Many men, in particular, looked at Xue Tianmo with immense envy.

"They're so beautiful!"

"I wonder which family that young master belongs to? He has such beauties by his side!"

"How great would it be if I had beauties like that accompanying me too?"

"..."

Xue Tianmo and the other two paid no attention to the passersby's discussions.

As they walked, a group of people approached from ahead.

The man leading them looked to be around ten years old. He was lavishly dressed and walked with an arrogant, haughty air.

Upon seeing him, the nearby passersby quickly moved away, as if afraid of getting themselves into trouble.

"Prince Xue Beng is here!"

"Quick, move aside!"

"If you provoke him, you won't get a good ending!"

Seeing how frightened everyone was of him, Xue Beng was very satisfied.

He looked like such a wastrel—overbearing and arrogant—but it was all an act.

Because Prince Xue Xing had noticed something was off about Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. Coupled with the mysterious deaths of the Second Prince and Third Prince,

he naturally suspected Xue Qinghe.

Thus, Prince Xue Xing came up with a plan: he had Fourth Prince Xue Beng pretend to be a spoiled young wastrel.

He hoped this would keep him alive.

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Xue Beng saw Xue Tianmo and the two women approaching him.

"What beautiful women!"

"There are even two of them!"

"As a wastrel, if I encounter such beautiful women and don't react at all, wouldn't that make people suspicious?"

With that thought, Xue Beng immediately made up his mind to step forward and tease them properly.
