It didn't take long.
Looking at his Xiao Qiu being wantonly handled by the two girls.
Xiao Wu Jie quickly dried herself and put on her clothes, looking displeased.
"Xiao Qiu~!"
Hearing her sour voice.
Ye Qiu propped himself up and escaped the tender embrace.
He kissed the two girls again as a farewell.
"Rongrong, Zhuqing, you two should rest well tonight, we still have to hunt Spirit Beasts tomorrow morning!"
"Mm! Got it," Zhuqing lowered her head and pulled up her clothes.
Her face was flushed with shyness, and her neck was still pink.
Ning Rongrong, who had played even more wildly, was flushed and collapsed on the bed.
Her face showed a slight tipsiness, with a hint of flush and intoxication.
"Rongrong, you played too wildly!"
Xiao Wu Jie glared at Ning Rongrong, picked up the tissue from the bedside, and wiped Ye Qiu's face, hands, and neck.
There were still several tooth marks on his neck.
Zhuqing also nodded in agreement.
She was truly too bold, daring to directly hold Ye Qiu's hand and do some indescribable things.
Ning Rongrong still didn't speak, her long legs together, a foolish smile on her face.
"Cough cough~ Alright, let's leave it at that for now!" Ye Qiu awkwardly interrupted them.
After all, it takes two to tango.
Without his cooperation, Ning Rongrong wouldn't have been so excited.
"Hmph~" Xiao Wu Jie snorted, picked up the quilt, and covered the disheveled Ning Rongrong.
Ye Qiu guided the Extreme Fire from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well within his body, making his palm very hot.
He dried Xiao Wu Jie's hair, starting from the top of her head and moving along her strands.
He didn't forget Zhuqing, also drying her hair.
As for Ning Rongrong, he couldn't do anything about her for now; she hadn't even washed up yet.
"Xiao Qiu~! Let's go!"
She didn't tie up her hair again, just letting her smooth long hair flow, and embraced Ye Qiu's arm.
Her face held a gentle smile, like a lotus emerging from water.
Her voice was soft and sweet, indescribably well-behaved and clever.
"Mm!" Ye Qiu nodded, "Zhuqing, Rongrong, then I'll be leaving now!"
"Mm!"
Zhuqing nodded slightly.
From under the quilt, Ning Rongrong, who had regained her senses and was extremely shy, also let out a muffled sound.
Red-purple Eternal Kaleidoscope Sharingan appeared in Ye Qiu's eyes.
A flash of blood-red in his eyes, and the Divine Might Space surged.
The figures of the two disappeared from the room.
…
To save time tonight.
Ye Qiu had already made preparations yesterday afternoon.
After finishing his training with Zhuqing, he went to the Star Dou Great Forest.
He kept going deeper.
The towering trees blocked the bright moon in the sky, not letting a single ray of moonlight through.
But the Star Dou Great Forest didn't appear dark.
The surroundings were filled with glowing plants, and the air was filled with glowing small insects.
This rendered the forest very beautiful.
However, the occasional roars and screams from within told of the danger here.
In a clearing surrounded by giant trees, Ye Qiu's figure appeared first.
He looked around and, seeing no danger, a transparent spatial vortex appeared, and a graceful figure emerged before Ye Qiu.
"Xiao Qiu~!" As soon as she appeared, she eagerly threw herself into her lover's embrace.
She gently sniffed the scent of Ye Qiu and the long-awaited air of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Her whole body was very relaxed.
"Alright, Xiao Wu Jie! Let's go further inside first!" He pushed away Xiao Wu Jie, who wanted to come closer.
Although her cherry lips and tenderness were very pleasing to Ye Qiu.
He still needed to be mindful of the occasion.
"Alright~" She rolled her eyes at him grumpily and left Ye Qiu's embrace.
Looking at the surrounding environment, starlight twinkled in her crimson eyes.
"Then let's go!"
Xiao Wu Jie, in a much better mood, took Ye Qiu's hand and was about to walk deeper inside.
"Wait a moment!" Ye Qiu called out to her.
Xiao Wu Jie turned her head, curiously looking at a tiger-headed Spirit Beast that suddenly appeared before them.
Its body was pure white, with an excellent appearance, and transparent wings on its back, clinging to its body.
Its emerald-green eyes revealed an innocent, very clear, and peaceful look.
As soon as it appeared, it was very affectionate towards Ye Qiu, constantly rubbing its large head against Ye Qiu's body.
"Xiao Qiu~! This is?"
Xiao Wu Jie curiously looked at this somewhat unusual Spirit Beast, which had such a good relationship with humans.
"Ah~"
Amidst her exclamation, Ye Qiu picked her up and placed her on the tiger's back.
"This counts as my pet."
Ye Qiu also mounted, sitting behind Xiao Wu Jie, with his arm around her slender waist.
He squeezed his legs slightly, and the tiger understood, slowly walking forward.
This tiger was precisely the Emerald Cloud Winged Tiger.
Ye Qiu returned to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and, seeing it alone, brought it along with him.
"Xiao Wu Jie, don't conceal your aura anymore!"
"Mm, got it!"
Xiao Wu Jie nodded gently, stroking the soft fur of the tiger beneath her, and released her aura.
"Roar~" The tiger let out a low growl, and its four legs suddenly felt a bit weak.
For the rest of the time, Ye Qiu focused intently, activating his Sharingan, and carefully urged the tiger forward.
Xiao Wu Jie quietly held Ye Qiu's hand that was embracing her, leaning into his arms, smiling sweetly.
"Xiao Wu Jie~! Do you know why I'm looking for Da Ming and Er Ming?"
With a soft beauty in his arms, Ye Qiu decided to first consult Xiao Wu Jie; if she was unwilling, he would have to find another way.
"I know!" Xiao Wu Jie replied softly, tilting her head to the side, looking at him seriously, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.
"Don't worry, Xiao Qiu, I will support you!"
"Thank you~" Ye Qiu also lowered his head, their gazes meeting.
Xiao Wu Jie did not shy away from those blood-red eyes; she loved the feeling of having Xiao Qiu completely in her eyes and heart.
Filled to the brim.
Pink mist rose in her crimson eyes, and her expression became intoxicated.
Her rosy, lustrous lips began to part, and with an upward motion, they kissed.
The tiger beneath them also wisely stopped.
"Roar~!"
In the distance, a loud roar suddenly echoed, and layers of trees could not prevent the sound from reaching the sky.
The tiger suddenly stumbled, its body trembling slightly.
Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu Jie also regained their senses.
Looking up, Xiao Wu Jie's red lips were slightly swollen, crystal clear.
Her pretty face was flushed, alluringly delicate.
She softly collapsed into Ye Qiu's arms, letting Ye Qiu help her straighten her disheveled clothes.
"It's here! Er Ming."
The ground trembled slightly, and the trees ahead continuously collapsed.
Ye Qiu's gaze pierced through, and a giant creature, tens of meters tall, continuously approached.
Its footsteps seemed joyful and urgent.
It crashed through everything in its path.
"Mm! It's him." Xiao Wu Jie snuggled closer into Ye Qiu's embrace, listening to his heartbeat.
She had no objection to Ye Qiu's plan.
She trusted Ye Qiu, and she also trusted the strength of Da Ming and Er Ming.
She also remembered how Tang Hao had tried to kill her Xiao Qiu.
Tang San had also attacked him multiple times, trying to put him to death.
She had long wanted to kill Tang Hao to avenge Xiao Qiu!
"Roar!"
The furious sound made Ye Qiu's ears buzz.
Frowning, he held Xiao Wu Jie tighter.
He recalled the trembling tiger, but not before stuffing some top-grade medicinal herbs into its mouth.
Boom!
The head of a gigantic ape-like creature appeared above Ye Qiu.
The giant trees in front collapsed to both sides, and the bright moonlight finally shone onto the ground.
In just an instant, the moon was again obscured.
A huge dark shadow enveloped Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu Jie.
Bang!
The giant tree fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust and a gust of strong wind.
Ye Qiu's blue, semi-long, messy hair fluttered before his eyes.
Xiao Wu Jie buried her head in Ye Qiu's arms, avoiding the wind.
His blood-red eyes finally saw the full appearance of the Titan Giant Ape.
Only in mid-air.
It seemed as if two golden lanterns were hanging, flickering.
Its outer appearance was entirely black, and its body was massive.
Every part of it was filled with power, its bulging muscles like small hills, their texture even harder than granite.
Ye Qiu stared at it blankly.
Such terrifying aura and physique.
Ye Qiu estimated that if he were to activate Susanoo and charge at it now, he would probably be crushed by its butt.
Even if it stood there and let him use Divine Might to twist its head, he might not be able to do it.
If he used Amaterasu to burn it, it would probably take a lot of time!
This was one of the overt overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest.
The Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast, Titan Giant Ape Er Ming!
Whether it was speed, strength, or defense, it was unparalleled, with no obvious flaws.
Except for its brain.
Ye Qiu remembered that Er Ming didn't seem to have learned to speak human language yet?
"Roar~!"
The Titan Giant Ape continuously pounded its solid chest muscles with its two huge iron fists.
It roared at the bright moon in the sky, expressing its joy.
Then it bent down, lowered its head, and roared towards Ye Qiu.
Its eyes, however, were fixed on the girl in his arms.
Each breath it took could exhale a considerable hurricane.
Ye Qiu's hair flew, and his face darkened.
What a big tone!
"Er Ming, you're so noisy!" Xiao Wu Jie poked her head out and shouted directly at him.
"Roar"
With her speaking, Er Ming indeed quieted down a lot.
But its gaze was still fixed on Ye Qiu, who was holding Xiao Wu Jie in his arms.
A pressure swept over him, and cold sweat broke out on Ye Qiu's back.
He looked at it with some surprise.
This fellow could actually control its Gravity Domain so precisely!
Xiao Wu Jie was so close to him, yet she wasn't affected.
But his condition could not escape Xiao Wu Jie's eyes.
"Er Ming! Don't you dare touch him~ Do you believe Xiao Wu Jie will beat you?!" Xiao Wu Jie spread her arms, blocking Ye Qiu.
"Roar~"
Just a soft roar made Ye Qiu's ears buzz.
It retracted its gaze from Ye Qiu and slowly squatted down.
Fortunately, there were no more trees around it.
Otherwise, it would have been a huge mess.
Its lantern-like eyes actually showed a hint of doting.
"Er Ming, long time no see!" Xiao Wu Jie patted Er Ming's fingernail, which was placed on the ground.
Her face also carried a hint of nostalgia.
Ye Qiu stood quietly behind her, watching their interaction.
He really couldn't understand Er Ming's roars.
"I know, I miss you and Da Ming too." Xiao Wu Jie continuously responded to it.
"I'm doing very well now, very happy." When Xiao Wu Jie said this, she turned her head to look at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu also returned a smile.
However, Xiao Wu Jie's next sentence almost got him crushed to death.
"Although some people do bully me."
"Roar!" Hearing this, Er Ming immediately roared in anger, about to grab Ye Qiu.
"Holy crap!" Ye Qiu was startled by the sudden movement, his face turning a little pale.
The ravines on this palm could bury him.
"Stop! Idiot Er Ming, I wasn't talking about him... he is, he is your brother-in-law!"
Xiao Wu Jie quickly stepped in front of Ye Qiu again.
Er Ming's movements froze in place once more, and he scratched his head with a finger, confused.
He let out a questioning low growl.
It seemed he didn't quite understand the meaning of 'brother-in-law'.
Xiao Wu Jie's face flushed. She directly hugged Ye Qiu's arm and pointed at his face.
"He is the man your Xiao Wu Jie found!"
Seeing the usually fierce Xiao Wu Jie acting like a timid bird, nestled against a human, Er Ming was stunned for a moment, his eyes unmoving.
Then, his pupils suddenly dilated, his gaze hostile, and he let out a low growl at him.
Confusion flashed in his eyes, and he roared at Xiao Wu Jie again, seemingly questioning her about something.
"Er Ming! Xiao Qiu is very good to me. He already knows my identity. You're not allowed to talk about him like that anymore, or I'll ignore you!"
Xiao Wu Jie frowned, and her words made him stop roaring.
But his eyes were still fixed on Ye Qiu.
Seeing Xiao Wu Jie tug at him, Ye Qiu also raised his head and waved at him, greeting him.
"Hello, Er Ming! My brother-in-law!"
"Roar~" He let out a soft roar and turned his massive head away.
Hot air puffed out of his nostrils.
"Hehe..." Ye Qiu chuckled dryly, feeling a bit awkward himself.
"Alright, Er Ming, take us to see Da Ming!"
Hearing Xiao Wu Jie's words, Er Ming glanced at Ye Qiu, his movements slightly hesitant.
"Hurry up!"
Under Xiao Wu Jie's renewed urging, he finally lowered his palm.
"Xiao Qiu~ Let's go!" Xiao Wu Jie happily took Ye Qiu's hand, and they both leaped onto Er Ming's palm, then he placed them on his broad shoulder.
Rumble!
Er Ming began to move, heading towards the Life Lake.
The journey was a bit bumpy. Ye Qiu sat down cross-legged, and Xiao Wu Jie also settled into his embrace.
The whistling of the wind and Er Ming's displeased roars filled their ears.
Soon, the surrounding environment became much quieter.
The trees were also much thicker than those outside, even taller than Er Ming.
Xiao Wu Jie spread her arms, feeling a sense of nostalgia for this feeling.
The warmth from his waist and back also made her feel infatuated.
On Er Ming's shoulder, Ye Qiu looked into the distance and saw a bright pearl growing larger.
When they got closer, Ye Qiu realized that the pearl emitting a faint glow was the Life Lake where Da Ming resided!
"Roar~!"
Even from a distance, Er Ming roared happily, conveying the good news of Xiao Wu Jie's return to Da Ming.
The calm lake surface suddenly rippled, then churned continuously.
Splash! Splash!
A pair of enormous bull horns slowly rose from the lake surface.
Following that was the entire head, whose diameter was estimated to be at least four meters.
Below it connected a portion of a black-green snake-like body, several times thicker than a water vat.
Two lantern-like eyes flickered, looking towards Er Ming.
"Er Ming, Xiao Wu Jie, and a human!"
The Sky Azure Bull Python's voice carried a sense of vicissitudes, ancientness, and was extraordinarily grand.
Its bright, intelligent gaze caught sight of Ye Qiu on Er Ming's shoulder.
"Da Ming!" Xiao Wu Jie waved at him, her face beaming with a smile.
Boom! Boom!
With several loud thuds, Er Ming quickly arrived at the lakeside and carefully set Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu Jie down.
"Da Ming, long time no see!"
"Roar~"
Xiao Wu Jie's voice was drowned out by Er Ming's roar.
Er Ming extended his finger, continuously pointing at Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu Jie, as if complaining to Da Ming.
"Er Ming, why did you interrupt me greeting Da Ming?!" Xiao Wu Jie glared at him and punched him, but her own hand felt a bit numb from the shock.
"Brother-in-law?!"
After Er Ming's voice subsided, Da Ming was also a bit stunned.
Looking at the two holding hands on the ground, the expression in his eyes solidified.
"Xiao Wu Jie, he..."
"Er Ming is right. His name is Ye Qiu, and I... I'm already his wife!"
Xiao Wu Jie raised the hand she was holding with Ye Qiu, a smile on her face.
"But... he's a human?!"
"But later, I will be too!" Xiao Wu Jie's words, blurted out, made Da Ming fall silent.
Indeed, in the future, his Xiao Wu Jie would also become a living human.
She was already different from them.
Slowly, his gaze swept towards Ye Qiu, his large eyes filled with scrutiny.
Ye Qiu also looked at this, currently the strongest in the Star Dou Great Forest.
A Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast, the Sky Azure Bull Python.
His spirit power was incredibly vast, and his body's length was unknown.
"Da Ming, hello..." Ye Qiu greeted with a smile.
Facing his smiling face, Da Ming's voice was not very friendly.
"Human! You shouldn't be here!"
"Roar!" Er Ming also echoed from the side.
"Da Ming, Xiao Qiu means no harm~ He came here all for me!"
"For Xiao Wu Jie?" Da Ming looked at her strangely, a bit confused.
Ye Qiu's words dispelled his doubts and filled his heart with fear and lingering dread!
"Xiao Wu Jie's identity has been discovered by a Titled Douluo!"
There was no beating around the bush; Ye Qiu was short on time.
He didn't really care now whether these two younger brothers-in-law were willing to acknowledge him as their brother-in-law.
There would be plenty of time in the future, so he'd take it slow!
"What! Discovered by a Titled Douluo! Xiao Wu Jie, are you alright?"
Da Ming's shocked voice rang out, and his body in the water churned, splashing water on the lake surface, with ripples continuously spreading.
"Roar!" Er Ming also pounded his chest and roared in anger.
His mind was relatively simple; he just wanted to tear that Titled Douluo to shreds now.
"Don't worry, isn't Xiao Wu Jie still standing perfectly fine in front of you?"
Xiao Wu Jie spun around in place, then leaned against Ye Qiu.
"And, look! I can now completely conceal my aura... This is all Xiao Qiu's doing!"
A faint crimson light suddenly appeared on Xiao Wu Jie, and her Spirit Beast aura vanished without a trace.
Da Ming's bull head swayed twice. After observing for a while, he retracted his gaze.
His gaze towards Ye Qiu softened considerably.
"Since that's the case, then you brought Xiao Wu Jie back. Are you going to let her stay here?"
..."After this matter is over, if Xiao Wu Jie is willing... it's not impossible!"
Ye Qiu was also stunned for a moment. He glanced at Xiao Wu Jie, but still gave his answer.
"Ah? Xiao Qiu~ How can that be?!" Xiao Wu Jie immediately became displeased.
Xiao Qiu had so many women around him. If she didn't follow him, what if he forgot her and was seduced by other women?
"Xiao Wu Jie..."
Da Ming's eyes showed a hint of loss, while Er Ming let out a low growl.
"Da Ming, Er Ming, don't be like this. Xiao Qiu's Spirit Ability is very convenient. I can come and see you often in the future!"
Xiao Wu Jie hugged Ye Qiu, looking at him pitifully.
"Xiao Qiu~ You'll help me, right! I still want to stay by your side."
"Didn't I just say it depends on your own wishes? As for sending you back to see Da Ming and the others, it won't take much time!"
Ye Qiu wrapped one arm around her and placed his other hand on her head, gently rubbing it.
His Divine Might was indeed a powerful tool for travel, with many advantages. It was time-saving, energy-efficient...
"Roar?" Er Ming's voice held a hint of surprise.
"Of course it's true, Er Ming!"
Da Ming was much more rational, and a bit confused.
"What kind of Spirit Ability is it exactly?"
"You'll know when we leave! Hehe." Xiao Wu Jie smiled brightly, not planning to tell them now.
Da Ming frowned but didn't dwell on it too much. His Xiao Wu Jie wouldn't lie to him.
A hint of joy also grew in his heart.
"That human before..."
"Da Ming! Don't keep calling him 'human, human.' Xiao Qiu has a name!"
"Hehe... It's alright!" Ye Qiu patted her back, telling her to calm down.
"Ye Qiu..." Reluctantly, Da Ming had no choice but to change his address. "What is the matter you mentioned ending before?"
"The Titled Douluo who knows Xiao Wu Jie's Spirit Beast identity will enter the Star Dou Great Forest in a few days. I want you to help me kill him!"
"Kill a Titled Douluo?!" Da Ming's voice was somewhat shocked.
"Exactly. As long as he's not eliminated, there's an added risk of Xiao Wu Jie's identity being exposed. Moreover, I already have a relatively complete plan to lure him deep into the forest!"
As soon as Ye Qiu finished speaking, Er Ming, standing beside him, began furiously pounding his chest.
He had clearly agreed.
But Da Ming, being smarter than him, considered more, yet also didn't refuse.
"I want to see your plan first!"
Ye Qiu chuckled slightly. It seemed Xiao Wu Jie held a very important place in their hearts.
"Tomorrow, that Titled Douluo's son will enter the Star Dou Great Forest with us for Spirit hunting, and that Titled Douluo has always been secretly protecting him!"
Hearing the words 'Spirit hunting', Da Ming and Er Ming both felt a little unhappy.
But they didn't think much of it.
Da Ming, hearing this, had already understood Ye Qiu's general plan.
He also vaguely understood why that Titled Douluo hadn't made a move on Xiao Wu Jie yet.
Without suspense, Da Ming also agreed to take action.
Bang!
A sudden loud noise appeared by the lake, and the ground with lush fresh grass sank.
Ye Qiu looked up at Er Ming's still somewhat dazed eyes.
"Er Ming, I need you to help me place some things!"
"Roar?"
"Xiao Qiu, what are you doing with these iron pillars? And so many iron balls?" Xiao Wu Jie was also startled.
"Human... Ye Qiu, what are these?" Da Ming was also a bit strange; he had only activated his Spirit for a moment, and these things suddenly appeared.
"This is called the Italian Cannon!" Ye Qiu said with a smile, patting the hollow iron pillar next to him.
"Oh, and I brought a gift for Er Ming!"
"Roar?"
Under the curious gazes of Er Ming and the others, Ye Qiu activated the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone's flying Spirit Ability and flew high into the air.
Then, he activated Divine Might. A vortex appeared, and a loud bang came from the ground, causing the surrounding ground to tremble slightly.
Excitement suddenly appeared in Er Ming's eyes.
Wishing everyone a pleasant life!
