"She is... that tail? A fish?"
To ensure their safety on the trip to Star Dou Great Forest, Xiao Yexuan had Ellen come along.
Kessoku Band, Ram, and Rem stayed home to watch the house.
With the seven of them working together, even Tang Hao would be brought to his knees if he came.
When the three girls saw Ellen's shark tail, huge question marks appeared over their heads.
Had her body mutated during her Martial Soul Awakening?
"Hello, my name is Ellen."
Ellen spoke in a languid tone.
"H-hello. What is that tail of yours?"
Ning Rongrong asked curiously, reaching out her wicked little hand to touch Ellen's tail.
That tail was glossy and smooth. Surely it would feel wonderful to touch.
But Ellen twisted, swinging her tail aside. "No touching the tail."
Ning Rongrong looked disappointed, but she did not dare cross the line again.
When Xiao Yexuan went out, he brought neither Ram nor Rem, only this shark-girl maid.
One thing was certain: this woman's cultivation could definitely handle an enemy like Tang Hao.
She had to be a Titled Douluo at the very least. Moreover, given Maple Forest Evening's resources, she should have three Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings.
Hiss...
She certainly did not want to upset someone like that.
The three girls stopped entertaining ideas about Ellen's tail, and they set off for Star Dou Great Forest.
They moved very quickly, reaching Star Dou Great Forest just as darkness fell.
Since they were building a little park for Maple Forest Evening, they could not choose the ornamental rockery too casually.
They planned to get a good night's rest tonight and search properly tomorrow.
They did not choose an inn beside the forest.
Instead, they pitched their tents somewhere with beautiful scenery.
"Brother Yexuan, I don't know how to pitch a tent. Can I sleep with you tonight?"
Everyone else was pitching tents, but how would a little princess like Ning Rongrong know how?
Holding a pale yellow cushion, she sidled up to Xiao Yexuan and asked with a pleading expression.
"Ahem! Rongrong, I can pitch your tent for you. I'm a professional at looking after guests!"
Xiao Yexuan coughed lightly. If he shared a tent with Ning Rongrong, what would the other two girls think?
If Ning Rongrong wanted some excitement, couldn't he just go to her bedroom once they got back?
Not only would no one disturb them.
The room was also completely soundproof!
Ning Rongrong puffed out her cheeks, then smiled in satisfaction and said,
"Thank you, Brother Yexuan. I want my tent right here."
Beside the tent Xiao Yexuan had pitched, Ning Rongrong drew a circle on the ground with her long leg.
Wasn't that far too close to Xiao Yexuan's tent?
With them so close together, wouldn't it be perfectly normal for her to go out to use the toilet at night and enter the wrong tent?
Ning Rongrong let out a wicked chuckle.
Zhu Zhuqing saw through Ning Rongrong's intentions. Without a word, she dismantled her tent and pitched it again on the other side of Xiao Yexuan's.
It looked as though it would practically press against Xiao Yexuan's tent.
Xiao Yexuan repeatedly tried to persuade them to move farther away.
After all, he was a gentleman.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wu watched from a distance, dumbfounded.
She had seen far too many sleazy people at Shrek Academy.
Who among them could be as pure as ice and jade as Xiao Yexuan?
He was not only kind and backed by powerful connections, but also neither sleazy nor wicked.
Nor was he a hypocrite like Tang San.
Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, and Xiao Wu were all as beautiful as immortals, each with alluring features that particularly drew the eye.
Previously, Xiao Wu had been thinking about Soul Bones, prize draws, and such things, and had paid no attention to this.
Looking now, Xiao Yexuan's gaze never strayed to those parts at all, nor did he show any wicked or sleazy expression.
He wore a gentle smile throughout, making others feel as comfortable as though bathed in a spring breeze.
With someone like him, she had no need whatsoever to worry about her chastity.
So Xiao Wu also moved her tent a little closer to Xiao Yexuan's.
This move immediately put Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing on guard.
They glared at Xiao Wu with hostile expressions.
The two of them could fight however they liked, but if someone else intervened, they would join forces to resist!
Xiao Wu was used to being the boss. How could she let the two of them look down on her?
The more unhappy the two girls were, the more Xiao Wu insisted on doing it!
So rather than back off, she pitched her tent facing the entrance to Xiao Yexuan's, almost touching it.
Now Xiao Yexuan was the one suffering.
Those three little tyrants had better not cause any trouble tonight.
"This feels awful! Now that I'm used to life in Maple Forest Evening, I can't sleep at all without taking a bath!"
Ning Rongrong had only just crawled into her tent before she came out again.
"Rongrong, there's a stream nearby. Let's go wash." Zhu Zhuqing nodded in agreement as well.
Since their tents were so close together that even someone turning over could be heard clearly, Xiao Wu also poked her head out and said,
"A bath? Count me in!"
"What if someone peeps on us while we're bathing? No, I have to ask Brother Yexuan to keep watch for me!"
Ning Rongrong spoke with a worried expression.
Then she shook Xiao Yexuan's tent and said,
"Brother Yexuan, you're listening, aren't you? Come out and keep watch for us."
Xiao Yexuan's character was so exemplary that none of the three objected.
"Uh... Ellen's here. What are you afraid of?"
Xiao Yexuan refused.
"Ellen's here to protect us, and she has countless things to attend to. Why should we trouble her over something so small? Brother Yexuan, please help us~! Apart from you, there's no one we trust."
The three shook Xiao Yexuan's tent together, and in the end, he had no choice but to come out.
The three girls' smiles bloomed like flowers, and they ran gracefully toward the river.
Under the moonlight, the stream flowed quietly. The three girls splashed and played in it, and just listening to the splashing water from the side was enough for Xiao Yexuan to eat ten large bowls of wide noodles.
This really made his blood surge.
"Zhuqing, how did yours grow like that? Let this young lady have a feel~!"
Ning Rongrong's sleazy voice came from within.
"Don't touch... take your hands away!" Zhu Zhuqing cried softly in embarrassment!
"You've got even more than your Sister Xiao Wu! They must be fake, unless you let me give them a squeeze..."
The sounds of playful tussling rose again.
The scene had already surfaced in Xiao Yexuan's mind. It had to be thrilling!
Hiss...
Xiao Yexuan was a respectable man.
He did not peep.
He also released Little Snow Maiden to help cool himself down.
But once Little Snow Maiden appeared, she wandered about too.
And her vision was shared with Xiao Yexuan.
Hiss...
Little Snow Maiden floated high, taking in all three girls at a glance.
Xiao Yexuan rubbed his nose. That scene really was thrilling!
While the three girls tussled without a care and Xiao Yexuan enjoyed the view through Little Snow Maiden's eyes.
Ning Rongrong suddenly screamed, "Aaaah! There's... there's a snake!"
"Brother Yexuan... h-help!!"
A large patterned snake really was swimming toward them from a distance. Terrified, Ning Rongrong ran straight out of the river, completely naked, and charged toward Xiao Yexuan.
She flung herself into Xiao Yexuan's broad embrace...
