Taking Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue, sister Ling Yuan suffers!"Swish...!"
When he appeared again.
Hu Liena was already holding Ye Han.
They arrived at the corner of a secluded, uninhabited alley.
"Little brother, you stay here for now."
"Sister will go catch the bad guys outside."
"Then she'll come back and take you to find your mom and dad."
Hu Liena put Ye Han down, stroked his little dirty face, and instructed him.
"Uh-huh, I'll be a good boy and wait for sister to come back!"
Ye Han obediently nodded, then watched her leave.
Looking at her departing figure, an inexplicable emotion welled up in his heart.
Although Hu Liena was an ungrateful love brain, her character was very good.
She must absolutely not be allowed to go astray like in the original work and be persecuted by Tang San.
He had to win her over before she met Tang San and train her into an obedient little fox.
Besides, there was another reason he had to win her over.
Bibi Dong cared deeply about Hu Liena, treating her as her own biological daughter.
What would happen if he won Hu Liena over and made Hu Liena fall in love with him?
By then, Bibi Dong would inevitably have to consider Hu Liena's feelings and not dare to touch him.
With Hu Liena's love-brain nature, if Bibi Dong moved against him, Hu Liena would inevitably turn against her as an enemy.
Therefore, as long as he won Hu Liena over, it would be equivalent to having a life-saving amulet, which could be described as killing two birds with one stone!
"Hu Liena, from now on, you're the woman I've reserved!"
Ye Han made a decision inwardly, the corners of his mouth curving into an evil arc.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Ling Yuan successfully subdued the frantic Soul Master and handed him over to the arriving Spirit Hall guards for disposal.
When she returned to the spot, however, she discovered that Ye Han was no longer there, and her heart instantly plunged into a mess of panic.
"Xiao Han! Xiao Han, where are you?!"
Ling Yuan searched along the Qi of Ye Han that lingered in the air, calling out anxiously.
"Huh? Sister Ling Yuan came looking for me?!"
Until she passed by the alley, Ye Han heard the sound of her cries and walked right out.
"Xiao Han!"
Ling Yuan was frightened out of her wits, running over and scooping Ye Han up in her arms.
Ye Han originally thought she would scold him for running around, but unexpectedly she said, full of self-blame:
"Xiao Han, you ran here because you were scared, right?"
"I'm sorry... It's all sister's fault for not leaving you alone there."
"Don't be afraid, sister won't be like that in the future, don't blame sister, okay?"
Her reaction left Ye Han somewhat baffled.
He didn't know whether she was afraid of being punished or what.
"It's fine, Sister Ling Yuan, aren't I perfectly fine now?"
Ye Han reached out to gently stroke her back, comforting her.
Hearing this, Ling Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a lingering-fear-filled laugh:
"Let's go, let's go home. When we get home, sister will properly make it up to you!"
Hearing those four words, 'properly make it up to you', Ye Han couldn't help letting his mind wander-what kind of make-up method would that be?
Suddenly, however, Ye Han thought about what would happen if he left now and Hu Liena couldn't find him later.
Alas, it was already too late; before he could voice the matter, she quickly carried him off to a courtyard.
"Creak~~"
Ling Yuan pushed open the courtyard gates, holding Ye Han as she walked inside.
The interior was very spacious, planted with various flowers, and decorated simply and warmly.
"Xiao Han, treat this as your own home from now on."
"Wow, it's so big!"
Ye Han instantly cast the matter of Hu Liena to the back of his mind, looking forward to their cohabitation life ahead.
In the future, at night after Sister Ling Yuan fell asleep, he would sneak into her room. Hehe-he-he.
"Alright, that's the washroom over there. You go wash yourself clean first, and I'll go tidy up a room for you."
"And didn't you want whale glue? Sister will go prepare it for you. When you come out after washing up, you'll get to see it."
Not knowing what little Ye Han's head was scheming, Ling Yuan said with a smile.
Hearing the word 'bath', Ye Han rolled his eyes, put on a grievance-filled expression, and muttered:
"Sister Ling Yuan... I... I don't know how to bathe by myself..."As soon as these words came out, surprise surfaced on Ling Yuan's pretty face, and she exclaimed:
"You... you actually still don't know how to bathe by yourself?!"
Continuing to look at her with aggrieved eyes, Ye Han whispered:
"Sister Ling Yuan... didn't you say you'd make it up to me? Just help me bathe for a bit, okay?"
Seeing this expression of his, Ling Yuan's heart instantly softened, and she hurriedly coaxed him:
"Alright, alright, alright, sister will help you wash, but only this time, you hear? You have to learn to bathe yourself in the future."
With that, she picked up Ye Han and walked toward the washroom.
Having achieved his wicked scheme, Ye Han laughed inwardly.
Wash by himself in the future? Impossible!
From now on, she had to wash him every single day!
If he kept that going, who knew, it might even develop into bathing together!
Inside the washroom, mist drifted.
A warm aura rushed over his face, carrying a faint floral fragrance.
Ling Yuan adjusted the water temperature to ensure it wouldn't burn or chill Ye Han.
"Xiao Han, the water temperature is just right. Sister is going to help you take off your clothes."
Speaking gently, Ling Yuan let her hands rest lightly on Ye Han's shoulders, then began peeling off his garments.
Feigning shyness, Ye Han lowered his head while blooming with joy inside.
Not only could he enjoy Ling Yuan's meticulous care, but this could also further draw their relationship closer.
Stealing a glance at Ling Yuan, he saw her face flushed with a faint blush, her eyes brimming with doting fondness and gentleness.
"Sister Ling Yuan, you're so good."
Ye Han said in a low voice, his tone laced with slyness.
Ling Yuan smiled faintly and didn't say much.
After stripping away everything from Ye Han, she gently placed him into the wooden tub to begin the bath.
Her movements were light and delicate, as though she was deathly afraid of hurting Ye Han in the slightest.
Feeling the warmth transmitted through Ling Yuan's fingers, Ye Han felt an inexplicable emotion well up in his heart.
Turning his head to look at Ling Yuan's pretty face close at hand, he felt she was more beautiful and moving than at any other time.
"Sister Ling Yuan, why is your face so red?"
Ye Han asked mischievously, reaching out a hand as if wanting to touch Ling Yuan's cheek.
Flushed even redder by Ye Han's remark, Ling Yuan hurriedly dodged Ye Han's small hand and chided playfully:
"Stop messing around, Xiao Han, and cooperate properly with sister. You still need to rest early and go hunt for a Soul Ring tomorrow!"
Chuckling, Ye Han stopped making trouble and obediently let Ling Yuan help him bathe.
Before long, Ling Yuan finished washing Ye Han and dressed him in new clothes.
Ye Han suddenly lunged into Ling Yuan's embrace, acting spoiled as he said:
"Sister Ling Yuan, I want a hug, and you have to keep your promise to give me the whale glue."
Taken by this embrace from Ye Han, Ling Yuan felt her whole body go soft all over, and she laughed helplessly:
"Alright, alright, alright, sister will hold you, and the whale glue is yours too."
With that, she picked up Ye Han and walked toward her own room.
After a bit of searching, she took out an exquisite wooden box.
When she opened it, Ye Han was instantly shocked beyond words.
Packed inside were actually three pieces of whale glue whose age exceeded ten thousand years.
At last, his Dragon God Sacred Body cultivation and physical enhancement finally had a destination.
"How is it? Are you happy?"
Ling Yuan leaned affectionately against Ye Han's cheek to ask, their faces nearly touching.
"Uh-huh, happy!"
Ye Han nodded heavily, a thought beginning to form in his mind:
With the Dragon God Sacred Body, eating them directly shouldn't cause any problems, right?
Thinking this, Ye Han grabbed all three pieces of whale glue, shoved them straight into his mouth, and swallowed them down.
"Ah! Xiao Han, have you lost your mind?!"
Ling Yuan cried out in alarm, never expecting Ye Han to be so bold.
The effect of Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue was extremely powerful; even high-grade Soul Masters needed to consume it with caution.
Let alone the petite Ye Han, and on top of that, swallowing three pieces in one gulp!
"Xiao Han, spit them out quickly!!!"
Worried that Ye Han wouldn't be able to bear it, Ling Yuan hurriedly urged her Soul Power, wanting to force out the whale glue Ye Han had swallowed.
Yet it was already too late, as the effects of the three pieces of whale glue instantly took hold.
As if he had lost his sanity, Ye Han immediately felt a scorching, unbearable heat course through his entire body.
Directly burrowing into Ling Yuan's arms next, he wreaked havoc while crazily muttering in his mouth:
"Sister Ling Yuan~ Sister Ling Yuan~~~"
