Because she had been on holiday for over a month and hadn't received any help from Cao Yu, her Soul Power had become increasingly difficult to control, which was why she had no choice but to come to Cao Yu today.
The next second, he activated the Soul Power within his body, borrowing the ice attribute of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.
The consciousness barrier has already been activated automatically.
Suddenly, a strong chill emanated from his body, and Ma Xiaotao's body stiffened instantly. She let out a "ba shi" sound from her throat, but her legs went weak.
"Thump..."
Both fell into Sea God Lake.
The cool lake water cleared Ma Xiaotao's mind somewhat; at this point, she couldn't care less about anything else.
The two bodies were sinking into the water when Cao Yu grabbed Ma Xiaotao.
Cao Yu said helplessly, "Senior, it would be better to stay further away."
The feeling of being pressed down in front of me was quite comfortable.
But his mind was becoming increasingly chaotic.
Ma Xiaotao seemed not to hear her and said softly, "Don't... elbow me."
Cao Yu simply stopped thinking about it.
"Mmm." He lowered his head and his lips touched hers.
Before long, the clothes were soaked in the cool lake water, as if they had been submerged.
The two of them... unconsciously stood in the lake.
An hour passed.
II, III, IV...
Countless hours passed, and it was getting dark.
In a daze, Cao Yu led her ashore.
Cao Yu was also a bit tired, so he simply lay down on the shore and dozed off for a while.
A short while later, Ma Xiaotao woke up from her coma.
Looking back, from that moment on, she transformed from a young, innocent girl into a truly mature woman.
And he was a junior she knew; she wanted to bury her head in the ground.
Ma Xiaotao sat on the ground and couldn't help but cry, "Waaah..."
At the same time, a thought popped into my head, "That damned guy, I'm going to kill him!"
However, when she saw that handsome face again, she hesitated to place her hand on his face, and finally gently stroked the skin around his cheek instead.
"Damn it! What should I do?"
Ma Xiaotao actually had a good impression of Cao Yu. To be honest, Ma Xiaotao was captivated by his handsome appearance from the very first moment she saw him.
However, due to the age difference, she soon gave up the idea.
However, to her utter surprise, the two of them ended up together again, and it happened unexpectedly...
Ma Xiaotao suddenly collapsed and sat down to one side, her abdomen twitching as if she still had some lingering effects from the fever.
Although the clothes were washed clean, the unprecedented fever persisted.
His eyes were half-closed.
The first thing Cao Yu saw was those two long, slender legs, followed by curves and a beautiful, exquisite scene.
The front of Ma Xiaotao's clothes clung tightly to her body due to the lake water, leaving her wearing only a jacket.
The majestic peaks were presented to Cao Yu with unparalleled clarity.
Suddenly it dawned on me.
A gentle breeze still rippled across the lake.
Ma Xiaotao quickly covered her face.
Is he really a young man?
Not long ago it was just a vague feeling, but now I see it clearly.
Ma Xiaotao felt she couldn't hold back her anger any longer, so she steeled herself and leaned against something.
To move closer to someone.
Ma Xiaotao blushed, but couldn't help but chuckle.
"My man is actually him, that damn bastard!" Ma Xiaotao's fingers then formed a slingshot shape once more.
Cao Yu finally panicked, staring at her with wide eyes and shouting loudly.
"What?"
Awkwardly withdrawing her hand, Ma Xiaotao turned away, sulking and ignoring him.
Are you angry already?
That makes sense, too. It was his own lack of rationality. If he had been a ninja, this wouldn't have happened.
However, he quickly realized that if he had to choose between being a beast and being worse than a beast, which would he choose?
Presumably, any normal man would choose the first option, unless he has a physical disorder.
And who am I? My surname is Cao and my given name is Yu!
After thinking it through, Cao Yu gently patted her shoulder and whispered comfortingly, "Don't worry, Xiaotao, I will take full responsibility for you. I will definitely marry you in a grand and glorious way in the future."
"After all, I benefited from it, and as a man, I should take responsibility."
His expression was so serious that it didn't change at all when Ma Xiaotao turned around to look at him.
A strange sense of security welled up inside her, as if she had found someone to rely on. Ma Xiaotao hugged him and cried silently.
She continued to gently pound his chest with her hands, her voice trembling with tears.
"Really?"
Cao Yu nodded solemnly and said, "Really, Xiaotao. To be honest, I felt lustful the first time I saw you."
"But don't be afraid. I may be a womanizer, but I know my limits. I may be a rogue, but I'm not very educated and I'm not good with words. However, I love you."
"And from now on, you're my woman, so I definitely have to take responsibility for you."
Ma Xiaotao gave a mischievous smile, then stood up and said, "Hmph! You wish! I don't want to talk to you right now, you bastard. I'm going back to the Inner Court. Goodbye!"
"I won't allow it."
Cao Yu wanted to chase after her, but Ma Xiaotao had already turned around and flown to a distance. In mid-air, she turned back and looked at him with a grin, seemingly a little smug.
Cao Yu, seemingly exasperated, shouted, " Xiaotao, you can't abandon your man!"
She stuck out her tongue, looking quite mischievous. This was the first time Cao Yu had ever seen her act so adorably.
Seeing his anxious expression, Ma Xiaotao became even happier.
Hmph! You bastard, I'm going to make you so angry, you'll see how you bullied me.
Seeing that her pressure on her man wasn't enough, she crossed her arms and said, "If you're so capable, come find me in the Inner Court yourself. I'm ignoring you for the time being, hmph! You stinky man!"
After saying that, she flew towards the depths of the Sea God Lake, and soon her figure disappeared, leaving only her voice echoing over the Sea God Lake.
On the way back, Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but secretly smile.
However, she didn't see that Cao Yu was also grinning, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised at a 45-degree angle.
The Inner Court? Isn't that a place you can go to and from whenever you want?
And it won't be long before we see each other again, hehe.
He took out a clean set of clothes from his Soul Tool, changed into them, and then walked back, Cao Yu happily.
Hey! I have to say, mature women are really great.
The thought made him even happier, and his steps became more cheerful.
He was so smug on the way back that people passing by kept talking about him.
"Hey, is this guy ecstatic? What could have made him this happy?"
"Let's hurry up and leave. I know this guy; he often comes to these places at night to show off his love. He looks so happy; I bet some girl has fallen for him again."
