Sleeping with a fragrant, soft little cat-girl in his arms for the whole night, it was beyond comfortable to a degree that defied description.
When he woke up the next day, the little cat-girl was already gone from his side.
Yet the lingering warmth by the pillow and the sweet scent let Luo Li know that it definitely had not been a dream.
"Brother Luo Li, you're awake, meow."
"Hehe, Mom actually cooked today, and there are even big chicken drumsticks! Hurry up and get out of bed, wash up, and we'll eat together in a moment, meow."
Sensing the movement inside the room, Little Tang San quickly ran over from the living room.
Today's Little Tang San had long since changed out of those tattered clothes.
She wore a water-blue halter dress that exposed her rounded, delicate little shoulders.
Her slender, snow-white neck was especially alluring and tempting.
Particularly the small legs wrapped in thin white silk beneath the skirt.
Where in Luo Li's mind was there any room left for the food Tang Hao cooked?
He felt that the Little Tang San before his eyes had been carefully prepared for him by Tang Hao.
Sluuurp...
That was simply what Luo Li thought.
And so he lunged forward all at once.
"Oh super wow, Little San, you look so cute dressed like this today."
"What is this stuff wrapped around your legs?
So slippery, so smooth, it feels just like a spring pancake."
"It must taste amazing!!"
Saying this, Luo Li even took a bite.
Delicious, no further words needed!
Tang San was instantly thrown into a fluster by Luo Li's behavior.
Her face flushed entirely red, cat ears twitching wildly, cat tail swaying chaotically.
Then she hurriedly pushed Luo Li away as he hugged her thigh, retreating two steps.
She wiped the mark on her leg, checking carefully to make sure the thin white silk wasn't torn, and only then breathed a sigh of relief.
This was, after all, the first set of clothes her cat-girl mother had given her.
She didn't want it to get chewed up by Luo Li just like that.
Of course, even if it did get chewed up by Luo Li, she wouldn't hate Luo Li.
Who made Luo Li occupy such a massive share of weight in her heart?
Without Luo Li, there would be no her today.
She didn't get angry, extending her hand toward Luo Li as he tumbled to the floor.
Luo Li grabbed her tender, white little hand and exerted a slight tug.
Before Luo Li could even stand up himself, the soft and tender Little Tang San was pulled straight into his embrace.
Then Luo Li wore a wicked smile, pinched her ears, and rubbed two fingers together just like someone asking for money.
Luo Li instantly felt the little cat-girl in his arms grow seemingly even softer, melting in his embrace like she was made of water.
"Brother Luo Li, don't, stop pinching, it's so itchy... so itchy, meow. Wuuu..."
Tang San protested in a soft, tender voice.
Yet her body made no movement at all.
Instead, she slumped powerlessly in Luo Li's embrace with complete reliance, savoring this dependence and warmth.
"I just can't control myself, Little San."
"These ears of yours are too tempting; I want to touch them again and again, touch them yet again, I completely can't stop my hands."
"Little kitty be good, let Big Brother touch them two more times."
Luo Li laughed heartily, refusing to stop his hands at all, playing with her in a way that was supremely gratifying.
Tang San clenched her little fists with an expression of indignation, pounding away on Luo Li's chest lightly, forcefully, yet without any harm at all several times.
"Brother Luo Li is so bad, you only know how to bully me, I'm not going to let you touch them next time, meow."
"Ah! My tail, meow!"
Yet Luo Li didn't pamper Tang San in the slightest.
The more softly and weakly she behaved, the more he-hehehe...
Luo Li grabbed her tail directly and gave it a fierce outward tug.
Tang San's entire exquisite frame went taut, her body swaying right there in Luo Li's embrace.
Luo Li kept pulling her tail while pinching her ears, jutting his chin out toward her and saying provokingly:
"You really have grown quite bold."
"You think that if you tell me not to touch, I won't touch?"
"If you won't let me touch, well then, I'll just pull your tail, hehe."
"Little one, you still want to fight me?"
Tang San puffed out her cheeks in vexation.
This Luo Li was simply too unreasonable.
Yet deep down in her heart, she was exceedingly happy, exceedingly at ease.
Luo Li liked her ears and tail so much; that was her advantage.
"What are you two making a fuss over? It's time to eat."
Just as Luo Li was bullying Tang San fiercely, Tang Hao finally came to save the day.
Little Tang San then bolted away as if fleeing for her life.
She didn't even notice that the thin spring pancake wrapped around one of her legs had vanished.
Tang Hao wore a warm smile.
That was more like it, the two little ones had pretty good affections for each other, wonderful.
After finishing their meal, the three of them began packing their things, preparing to leave Holy Soul Village and head to the Star Dou Great Forest to acquire a soul ring.
At that moment, however, Old Jack came running over in a state of extreme excitement.
Trailing right behind her was a middle-aged uncle.
"Hahaha, Little San, Little Li, wonderful! Wonderful! Such an enormous joyous occasion!"
"This old lady knew that the innate talents of the two of you would definitely never be buried."
"Look, the Spirit Hall has sent someone."
"Not only is he a powerful Lord Soul Master, he's also the Spirit Grandmaster whose name shakes the entire Douluo Continent!!"
Grandmaster-wasn't that Yu Xiaogang?
Luo Li's mouth twitched, and he looked toward the doorway.
Sure enough, he saw that flat-topped, ordinary-looking middle-aged man.
The way his hands were clasped behind his back exuded a peculiar aura.
How did this fellow run all the way here?
Thinking about it, though, it made sense.
Spirit Hall had discovered two people with Innate Full Soul Power in Holy Soul Village, yet both possessed trash Martial Souls.
Su Yuntao had complained upon returning, and word had spread out.
Everyone else felt it was a pity, shaking their heads and feeling that having Innate Full Soul Power didn't matter if their Martial Souls were garbage.
They were all just trash.
Yet Yu Xiaogang was different.
He dared to assert that the two of them were definitely not simple.
And so he had hurried to Holy Soul Village, wanting to take the two of them as his closing disciples.
And use the two of them to prove his own Martial Soul theories.
