Luo Yu glanced at the small bottle in his hand, watching Qian Renxue's departing silhouette.
A trace of brilliance flickered across his deep, dark pupils.
The corners of his mouth curled up, sketching a devilishly handsome smile.
Unless he intentionally went easy on Qian Renxue during a fight, no, made it a sea of ease.
Otherwise, wasn't this wife as good as his?
He glanced at the System panel.
[Twin Goddesses Hidden Mission: Capturing Qian Renxue, Rescuing Bluesilver Emperor Ah Yin (Completed)]
[Mission Reward One: Exclusive to the Nine Heavens Execution Sword, a two-hundred-thousand-year sixth soul ring]
[Mission Reward Two: All soul rings of the Zhu Tian Sword upgraded by two hundred thousand years]
[Mission Reward Three: Capturing the two goddesses grants a God-level Gift Pack!]
Luo Yu's gaze settled in the distance, his eyes sharpened with determination.
Qian Renxue, he was determined to have her, and would cut down anyone who came for her.
By the way, this God-level Gift Pack reward had better not turn out to be some weird gimmick again.
He shook his head and wheeled his chair out of the alley.
Watching Luo Yu depart, Qian Daoliu's eyebrows furrowed into a frown from the shadows.
His fists clenched tightly, several times he almost burst out.
Watching his granddaughter almost being sweet-talked away, his mentality had long since exploded.
But in the end, he restrained himself.
Qian Daoliu said with disdain, "He doesn't have the looks, and I can't see anything special about his strength."
"How could he possibly be a match for Xue'er? It's better to let Xue'er crush him by herself."
"That way, Xue'er will completely give up on this man."
"Sigh——"
Qian Daoliu heaved a deep sigh.
"Still, our Martial Soul Hall's geniuses are both handsome and highly gifted, worthy of Xue'er."
"Both named Luo Yu, how can the gap be so huge?"
"But where on earth has this little ancestor gone? Vanishing for so long without a single trace."
"Little ancestor, if you don't come back to the Martial Soul Hall soon, your fiancée is going to be whisked away by someone else."
Qian Daoliu anxiously ruffled his hair, feeling gloomy and depressed.
"Where on earth are you hiding, buddy? The whole Martial Soul Hall has been searching for so long and still hasn't found you."
"Forget it, I'm not going to think about it anymore. This time in Tiandou City, I'll take the chance to have a good look around."
Qian Daoliu's figure twisted and disappeared into the darkness.
Meanwhile, another figure hidden elsewhere also shook her delicate body and hurried toward the direction in which Luo Yu had departed.
...
"Clip-clop, clip-clop!"
Under the night sky, the streets of Tiandou City were deserted, with only Luo Yu slowly making his way.
At first, Luo Yu leisurely enjoyed the night scenery.
Soon, his gaze froze, and he turned his head to glare at a spot on the eaves to the side.
"Who's there?"
Yet there was no one where he glared, and a whistling wind could be heard by his ear.
Luo Yu quickly shifted his gaze, as a figure had already charged close.
The approaching person's phoenix eyes glared intently, her red lips opened, and she let out a resounding voice.
"Heartbreaker, prepare to die swiftly!"
"Swish, swish!"
The figure raised her sword finger, piercing like a blade, filled with a fierce aura.
Luo Yu leaned back in his chair, gave up resisting, and did not dodge or avoid.
His mouth cocked in a smile, watching the figure approach without even blinking.
"Whoosh!"
The figure stopped abruptly, her sword finger precisely on Luo Yu's throat.
Luo Yu remained calm.
In the moonlight, he admired the peerless beauty of the woman before him.
The woman's valiant and captivating face stared coldly at Luo Yu, her golden dazzling dress outlining seductive curves, and her jade legs stood in high heels, enchantingly captivating.
Luo Yu said with a smile, "Weren't you supposed to make me die? Make your move then."
The woman's expression was motionless, quietly observing him.
Luo Yu proactively raised his neck, aligning it with the sword finger, and moved forward to meet it.
The woman's eyes flickered slightly, and she stepped back.
Luo Yu pushed his wheelchair forward, continuing to close in step by step.
"How despicable can you be, seeking a stabbing, aren't you?" the woman scolded with a cold face.
Luo Yu said teasingly, "How dare you speak so boldly to your husband? That's something I should be saying to you."
The woman was taken aback at first, and then her majestic and beautiful face visibly blushed.
"Ptui!"
"Stop pretending to be close, another nonsense word and I'll really stab you."
"Come at me!" Luo Yu closed his eyes directly.
The woman withdrew her hand, her cheeks puffing out in annoyance as she shook her beautiful legs and stamped her feet repeatedly.
"You're so shameless!!"
"You know perfectly well that I can't bear to do it, right?"
Luo Yu reopened his eyes, smiling gently, "How could I not understand our Dong'er?"
"Go away, who is your Dong'er."
Bi Bidong pursed her rosy lips.
Luo Yu pretended to be heartbroken, clutching his chest.
"Could it be that in my absence, my wife Dong'er has changed her heart?"
"Pah, who's changed their heart, I've always loved you, okay." Bi Bidong pouted her lips and pushed out her chest, huffing, "It seems to be a certain someone who's changed. Eight hundred years and not once did you come back to see me."
"How could I."
Luo Yu shook his head, looking earnestly at Bi Bidong.
The warm, focused gaze was almost too much for her to handle.
"You... what are you doing..." Bi Bidong was somewhat at a loss for words.
Luo Yu spoke softly and tenderly.
"I am looking at—"
"Our Dong'er seems to have become even more beautiful."
A man's simple sentence, nothing special, yet it broke Bi Bidong's defense in a second.
All the coldness on her face receded, her phoenix eyes revealing an undeniable longing, and her slightly pursed rose-petal-like lips teased a pitiable charm.
Bi Bidong touched her own cheek and gave Luo Yu a resentful look.
"In this whole lifetime, you are the only scoundrel I'm powerless against."
"I was planning to keep a straight face, to scare you a bit."
"In the end, I just couldn't bear to be angry with you."
Luo Yu grinned, opening his arms without any redundant words.
"Come, let's hug."
"Tch, childish."
Bi Bidong looked disdainful as she curled her lip, but her feet moved on their own, stepping closer to Luo Yu. She directly sat in Luo Yu's embrace, her plain dress fluttering as she crossed her legs.
With the beauty in his arms came bursts of fragrance.
Luo Yu's mind swayed. The charm of the Female Pope was no laughing matter.
Every meeting stirred his heart.
"Brother Yu, we're still out on the street, is it okay to hug like this~" Bi Bidong was a little uncomfortable, the mighty Empress sitting in a man's arms on the street felt extraordinarily shy.
Luo Yu tightened his embrace around the beauty in his arms.
"What's there to be afraid of, it's late night and there's no one out."
No sooner had he spoken than the clinking of porcelain bottles echoed from the adjacent alley.
Three drunk youths swayed as they walked out.
Seeing Bi Bidong sitting in Luo Yu's embrace, they were dumbfounded.
They wiped their eyes repeatedly, their mouths agape.
"Holy shit, what's all this!!"
"Brother, is the little grove not enough for you? You've moved to the street now?"
One of them even gave a thumbs-up.
"You people in Tiandou City really know how to have fun, coming up with new ways to play."
"Street shock?"
Luo Yu's mouth twitched, wondering what kind of creatures had just appeared.
Bi Bidong had been laughing and talking in Luo Yu's arms, but with strangers present,
she immediately retracted her smile, her look turning to one of cold dignity.
Her phoenix eyes glared, her lips clacked together, spitting out one word.
"Scram!"
With the authority of an Empress accumulated day after day, the three, initially full of drunkenness, instantly sobered up in fright.
They threw the bottles skyward, crying "Mommy" as they ran off.
They covered their eyes while running, shouting that they hadn't seen anything and for the two "lovely folks" to carry on.
Bi Bidong was so angered she almost jumped out of Luo Yu's arms to tear their mouths apart.
Luo Yu, however, laughed until he bent backward at the sight of Bi Bidong's anger.
"You think it's funny, huh? It's all your fault that I'm so embarrassed!"
Bi Bidong complained sweetly, twisting Luo Yu's waist with her hand.
"Blaming me for what? We are innocent, and I haven't done anything," Luo Yu surrendered with his hands up.
"You've hugged and held me, what more could you want?" Bi Bidong glared.
"You," Luo Yu replied swiftly.
