Since she was wearing a bath towel, Ning Rongrong certainly hadn't wrapped her whole body in it. Instead, she had fashioned it into something like a strapless dress.
The moment Chen Ci opened his eyes, he saw a broad expanse of snowy white skin and a deep cleavage.
It really made it impossible to stop.
That expanse of snowy white swayed gently as the Little Demoness stroked his abs.
Watching the Little Demoness absorbed in stroking his abs, Chen Ci said with a smile:
"Rongrong, do my abs feel good?"
Hearing the question, the engrossed Little Demoness answered instinctively:
"They do. They feel wonderful."
"Then would you like to try licking them?"
"Yes..."
Ning Rongrong stopped halfway through her reply and suddenly looked up at Chen Ci.
Under Ning Rongrong's stare, Chen Ci suddenly felt a little guilty.
Seeing his guilty look, Ning Rongrong's alluring lips curved:
"Brother Chen Ci, you wouldn't be asking me to...
"Lick... your..."
"Ahem, certainly not."
"But I can oblige you~"
Ning Rongrong tucked the hair hanging beside her cheek behind her ear and leaned down.
At the same time, the running water in the bathroom stopped, and the voluptuous Zhu Zhuqing emerged wrapped in a bath towel.
As soon as she stepped out, she saw Chen Ci reclining on the bed, with Ning Rongrong lying on top of him, her head above his abdomen.
Hearing the sound from the bathroom, Ning Rongrong and Chen Ci also turned toward Zhu Zhuqing.
At the sight, Zhu Zhuqing's face instantly turned scarlet. She retreated into the bathroom at lightning speed, shut the door, and shouted:
"Carry on! I didn't see anything!"
Ning Rongrong's cheeks had also turned scarlet the instant her eyes met Zhu Zhuqing's.
After Zhu Zhuqing returned to the bathroom, Ning Rongrong raised her small, fair, pink-tinged fist and thumped Chen Ci's chest, chiding him:
"Brother Chen Ci, this is all your fault! Zhu Zhuqing must have misunderstood!"
Then Ning Rongrong shouted toward Zhu Zhuqing:
"Zhu Zhuqing, you've misunderstood!
"Brother Chen Ci and I didn't do anything!"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing opened the bathroom door and poked her head out, first surveying her surroundings like a kitten.
Once she saw that Chen Ci and Ning Rongrong really weren't doing anything further, she shyly emerged from the bathroom.
Her figure was so voluptuous that the bath towel struggled to cover her body.
Even though she clutched it tightly, it was difficult to avoid revealing tantalizing glimpses.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's figure, Ning Rongrong gaped and exclaimed:
"Zhu Zhuqing, aren't yours way too big?"
"They're all right~"
"Let me squeeze them and see if they're real!"
Seeing Ning Rongrong pounce on her, Zhu Zhuqing was startled and cried out:
"No!"
But on the same bed, where could Zhu Zhuqing possibly hide?
Watching this scene, Chen Ci suddenly remembered something a certain master had once said:
I love watching two girls fight.
(Damn it, even the Clear Heart Technique isn't working. What am I supposed to do?)
Just then, both girls noticed Chen Ci's unusual condition.
Ning Rongrong grinned wickedly:
"Brother Chen Ci, let me help you!"
Chen Ci and Zhu Zhuqing both widened their eyes.
Several days later, all three were in better shape than ever.
After visiting every place of any renown in Suotuo City, they began searching for the legendary Shrek Academy, which only admitted monsters.
Clearly, however, finding Shrek Academy was not so simple.
Asking for directions along the way, the three left Suotuo City and reached a small village outside it.
At last, they found the legendary Shrek Academy.
Looking at the village, Ning Rongrong said in surprise:
"Is this where the legendary Shrek Academy is?
"It looks so shabby."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded in agreement, but still said:
"Perhaps this academy keeps its mountains and waters hidden. Let's go take a look first."
Ning Rongrong said helplessly:
"That's all we can do."
Chen Ci did not join their discussion, because he had no proof to back up his words, and it would be difficult to make the two girls believe him.
Besides, to get Zhu Zhuqing to leave Shrek with him, he still had to let her learn more about what kind of person Dai Mubai was now.
At the same time, although Flender and the others were mediocre at teaching Soul Power, they could indeed improve Rongrong's temperament a little.
Staying a few more days would do more good than harm.
He just needed to go to Heaven Dou City and secure the Immortal Herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well before Tang San did.
Following the country path, Chen Ci, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing continued onward and finally found Shrek Academy's location.
Seeing the long line in front of Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong said in some surprise:
"I didn't expect so many people to want to enter Shrek Academy.
"We really have come to the right place, then."
Hearing this, Chen Ci couldn't help chuckling.
(Any Soul Master who could rise at Shrek Academy as it is now would only rise faster somewhere else.)
(Of course, that's excluding the effects of the Immortal Herbs.)
Seeing Chen Ci laugh, Ning Rongrong immediately asked:
"Brother Chen Ci, what are you laughing at?"
"Nothing."
"Well, Brother Chen Ci, now you're even hiding such little things from me.
"Is it because of Zhu Zhuqing?"
Looking utterly innocent, Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly said:
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Rongrong, this has nothing to do with Zhu Zhuqing.
"You'll understand later."
Ning Rongrong puffed out her cheeks and huffed:
"Hmph! You meanie!"
"All right, all right. Let's get in line first."
The three joined the back of the line.
Dai Mubai, who was maintaining order in front of Shrek Academy's gates, looked rather displeased as soon as he spotted them.
Before long, the three reached the middle-aged Soul Master in charge of testing their aptitude.
The middle-aged Soul Master asked:
"You want to join our Shrek Academy?
"Our Shrek only admits monsters. You understand that, don't you?"
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong nodded and said:
"That's right. We want to join Shrek."
Naturally, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong passed the aptitude test and became members of Shrek.
The middle-aged Soul Beast turned toward Chen Ci and asked:
"Do you want to join Shrek Academy?"
Chen Ci shook his head:
"No. So far, I haven't seen anything about your Shrek that would make me want to join.
"If you want me to join Shrek, I'll need to assess it for a while. I'll only join you if it's suitable."
At these words, the middle-aged Soul Master responsible for the aptitude test looked extremely displeased.
"Are you here to cause trouble?"
"I think my requirements are perfectly reasonable."
The middle-aged Soul Master instantly flew into a rage. He slammed the table and pointed at Dai Mubai:
"You know him, the Evil Eye White Tiger, don't you?
"He's one of the monsters our academy has trained. As for you, you're just a nobody, yet you dare speak so insolently?"
"Mubai, see him out!"
Without so much as glancing at Dai Mubai, Chen Ci said with a smile:
"The Evil Eye White Tiger?
"He's merely someone I've defeated. Does someone like him qualify as a monster?
"Let me show you what a true monster is!"
With those words, Chen Ci no longer concealed his presence...
