Luo Yu stopped in his tracks just as he was about to reach the door.
Without turning around, he said slowly, "Nana, rest assured, whoever bullies you, I'll take revenge for you."
"I'll take the life of anyone who dares to lay a sword on you."
Gu Yuena pouted and said, "Stupid man, stop boasting. Do you even know who it was that struck me?"
"That person is a top existence in the Divine Realm, a Ceiling-level being. Not to mention you, even I at my peak couldn't beat him. Probably only the Dragon God could have a slight edge over him."
"You don't need to avenge me. I just want you to be safe." By the end, Gu Yuena's words were soft and tender, and her eyes shone with emotion.
Luo Yu pushed open the door and stepped out.
The laughter of a man came through the door he had left ajar, a laughter filled with a touch of arrogance, mixed with a bit of hooliganism and rudeness.
"Little Nana, don't speak in riddles, just be frank. It's the Asura God King from the Council of the Divine Realm who bullied you, right? Whoever dares to bully you, no matter what god they are, it's the same as challenging a thunder tribulation—I'll blow them up."
Gu Yuena's body trembled with emotion, a warm current flowing to her heart, mixed with countless doubts.
"He's not from the Divine Realm, so how does he know about the Council of the Divine Realm!"
"How can he dare to say he'll kill the Asura God? That's the Divine King we're talking about."
Gu Yuena couldn't help but feel the bloodiness of that sword strike, sensing the faint wounds on her body, her complexion turning pale, her heart filled with waves of powerlessness and panic.
Only when she remembered Luo Yu's parting words did a sense of inexplicable trust emerge in her heart, bringing slight warmth.
"He's already gone."
She whispered to the air, finally showing a gentle smile, foolishly saying, "Stupid man, I'll wait for you."
...
As soon as Luo Yu stepped out of the core area, he was stopped by a still-charming young widow.
The young widow was dressed in pink, with delicate brows and beautiful eyes, her skin as flawless as jade, surpassing the frost and snow. In this forest, she seemed to carry an otherworldly beauty, stirring the soul with her enchanting presence.
Upon seeing Luo Yu, joy and gratitude flashed in the young woman's eyes. She bowed in greeting, her ample cleavage drawing the eye and almost causing the hearts of men to waver, and monks to break their vows.
"A Wu greets her benefactor."
"What are you doing here?" Luo Yu asked, puzzled.
The young widow said respectfully, "My lord has sent a message, mentioning that you have been reborn, and has ordered me to escort you to the human world."
"No need to trouble yourself," Luo Yu waved his hand dismissively.
"It's no trouble at all. It's A Wu's honor to take care of you, benefactor. Without your help, I would probably have perished in the hunt by the Martial Soul Hall years ago, and I've never had the chance to repay you. Please give me this opportunity."
A Wu batted her long eyelashes with tears in her eyes, the charm of the young widow plainly evident.
"I really don't need a bodyguard!" Luo Yu refused again.
A Wu sighed, "Benefactor, my daughter Xiaowu has also been in the human world for a long time now. As a mother, I'm worried about her. It would be great to go have a look with you."
"Taking a beauty like you out might bring unnecessary trouble," he remarked.
A Wu shook her head repeatedly. Her body shimmered with a pink glow and transformed into a mini, cute pink rabbit with pretty patterns on its ears, hopping directly into Luo Yu's arms.
"Benefactor, I'll just exist as your pet normally. That shouldn't cause you any trouble, and I can still protect you. It's like killing two birds with one stone."
Luo Yu, feeling the warmth in his arms and hearing the soft voice, couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
God knows, killing two birds with one stone, a woman, and a widow at that, doesn't she know to keep a low profile?!
This woman happily snuggling into a man's arms, thinking she's accomplished something... Are the nerves of soul beasts all so thick?
"Like this, you're making things difficult for me. Do I have to sleep with you too?"
"Benefactor, just think of me as an ordinary Soft Bone Charm Rabbit."
As if it's as simple as deciding to be something.
That image of her long, attractive legs and alluring figure flashed in his mind, and Luo Yu was suddenly speechless, feeling awkward and uncomfortable.
Unable to refuse her insistent kindness, he ultimately accepted the clingy—not young widow, but clingy—Soft Bone Rabbit reluctantly.
Luo Yu set out on his journey.
On the way, he wondered, Soft Bone Charm Rabbit, charming or not is debatable, but are the bones truly soft?
With a spirit of scientific exploration, Luo Yu reached out and touched the soft pink fur somewhat unexpectedly.
"Hiss... ha!"
"Quite comfortable."
"This touch, unrivaled, love it, love it."
Luo Yu didn't have any ulterior motives; he truly regarded the rabbit as just a rabbit, just like petting a cat.
He just didn't notice that the Soft Bone Charm Rabbit didn't make a sound—and its eyes were almost dripping with water...
Half a day later, at the Martial Soul Hall, he had finally arrived.
Luo Yu looked at the majestic hall within the grand city walls, shining with gold and splendor.
He chuckled softly, "I wonder if that woman still remembers me... "
