Ao Tian's residence in this district wasn't particularly large. The main reason he chose it was because there was a small, scenic lake within the estate.
His own room was situated by the lakeside, where a row of houses stood.
On both sides of the house, two covered corridors stretched along the lake's edge, leading outward. Pavilions and walkways were built across the water, lotus flowers floated on the surface, and willows drooped gracefully by the shore. Though the lake wasn't very large, the place had an undeniably soothing charm.
Among that row of houses, only Ao Tian and Gu Yue Na shared one; the other three girls each had their own room.
Having arrived at a new place, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong were both full of excitement. The two took a small boat out on the lake, and even the night couldn't dim their cheerful mood.
Zhu Zhuqing was tempted to join them, but after hesitating for a moment, she decided instead to bathe and start cultivating.
At that moment, Ao Tian and Gu Yue Na stood arm-in-arm on the wooden corridor outside their room, watching Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong play on the lake.
" Ao Tian, I'm going back to my room," Zhu Zhuqing said softly, her clear eyes gazing at him.
"Mm. Cultivate well. In a while, I'll give you a surprise," Ao Tian replied.
"What kind of surprise?" A flicker of joy flashed across Zhu Zhuqing's face, and she asked quickly—then realized she'd lost her composure and reined herself in.
"If I tell you, it wouldn't be a surprise anymore. Go and cultivate first," Ao Tian said with a smile.
"Alright." Zhu Zhuqing nodded and turned to go inside.
If one looked closely, they could see a hint of expectation in her eyes.
Clearly, she was delighted by the thought of a surprise from Ao Tian.
"What could the surprise be? Could it be another treasure to help speed up my cultivation?" Zhu Zhuqing guessed to herself.
"The things he's given me have all been so precious… I really don't know how I can ever repay his kindness…"
…
After Zhu Zhuqing closed the door, Gu Yue Na teased, "So what's this surprise you're talking about? Are you planning to pamper her tonight?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ao Tian said flatly.
"Her performance today wasn't bad, and since she no longer wants anything to do with the Star Luo Empire, I plan to boost her strength a little."
Gu Yue Na nodded. "She really should get a power-up. At her age, she shouldn't spend all her time cultivating. Like Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong—girls should have some joy and playfulness in their lives."
Ao Tian said, "Also, Di Tian and the others—your subordinates. I'm thinking of giving them all a group strength enhancement soon."
Gu Yue Na's eyes widened, then filled with worry. "But Di Tian and the others already have high cultivation levels. If you enhance them all at once, will that affect you?"
"It's fine. I'm just going to refine some cultivation-enhancing pills for them. What, did you think I was planning to bleed myself and make them drink it?" Ao Tian chuckled.
"That's good then." Gu Yue Na smiled sweetly, hugging his arm tighter.
That small movement instantly ignited twin flames in Ao Tian's eyes.
Gu Yue Na knew Ao Tian too well—she sensed the change in his mood and giggled softly.
But soon, her smile faded into concern. "Some of them just went through their tribulations recently. If they all break through again together, the repeated heavenly tribulations might draw attention from the God Realm."
"So what if they come? With me here, what are you worried about?" Ao Tian said calmly.
"Then I've got nothing to worry about," Gu Yue Na replied, smiling once more.
She leaned closer, caressing his arm gently.
"Let's go back inside," she murmured, her voice soft and tinged with seduction.
Ao Tian turned his head—her face was flushed a deep crimson, her body radiating warmth that subtly raised the air's temperature around them.
Her violet eyes shimmered like rippling wine, utterly intoxicating.
Faced with such a dangerously alluring beauty—one even more enchanting than a fox spirit—Ao Tian's blood naturally stirred.
But he shook his head. "Not now."
"Why not?" Gu Yue Na asked in surprise.
To her, Ao Tian's passion was like divine fire—once sparked, impossible to put out.
Ao Tian replied, "Now that we're in Heaven Dou City, I want to visit Xue'er. I haven't seen her in months… I kind of miss her."
Gu Yue Na released his arm and said softly, "Then go see her. She's been alone in the palace all this time—it's pitiful."
Ao Tian gently pinched her small, delicate nose. "You're so understanding. Having you really is a blessing."
"Then tell me—between me and Bibi Dong, who's better?" Gu Yue Na asked playfully.
"Uh… both are good. Equally good," Ao Tian answered honestly.
Any other man would've used the chance to praise her lavishly.
Gu Yue Na nudged him, laughing. "Alright, I'll stop teasing you. Go find her. Come back early—or… it's fine if you don't come back tonight. Just… do your best."
As she said that, she winked mischievously and made a cheering gesture.
Ao Tian had told Gu Yue Na about Qian Renxue before, so she knew that while Qian Renxue liked him, she still couldn't fully accept that he had other women.
"You little troublemaker," Ao Tian said with a smirk. "When I get back, I'll make you do ten thousand squats as punishment."
"Ten thousand? Too few. Make it a hundred thousand," Gu Yue Na lifted her chin challengingly, refusing to back down.
"Haha, even better!" Ao Tian laughed heartily, opened the door, and stepped inside—then vanished in an instant, teleporting straight to the royal palace.
It was only then that Gu Yue Na realized—agreeing to a hundred thousand squats might have been a mistake.
Doing all that… was that really a win for her?
…
With a single thought, Ao Tian appeared in the palace, materializing inside Qian Renxue's chamber.
The last time he'd been here was during her birthday, when he came to take her away for a while.
At that time, she had just been changing clothes, and he'd accidentally walked in on her. Both were left awkward and flustered.
So this time, to avoid another embarrassing incident, Ao Tian came invisible.
He would only reveal himself once he was sure she wasn't changing.
Ao Tian's "invisibility" was simply a manipulation of spatial laws—it was nothing difficult for him.
He also had other methods—such as hypnotizing a target to make them perceive illusions and be unable to sense his presence.
Fortunately, Qian Renxue wasn't changing this time. She was sitting quietly by her bedside, lost in thought.
She had returned to her true appearance, wearing a loose nightgown. Her long golden hair was slightly curled and still damp—it seemed she had just taken a bath.
She was now in her twenties, and in just a few months, her figure had become even more alluring.
Perhaps she inherited the genes of Qian Xunji—tall and statuesque, her height of one meter eighty made her even taller than Gu Yue Na or Bibi Dong.
Her long, slender legs crossed elegantly, and from beneath her loose pants peeked two smooth, jade-white calves.
Her bare feet gleamed faintly under the light, perfectly shaped and flawless.
Her voluptuous figure radiated a charm capable of stirring any man's heart.
At the moment, she leaned against the bed, holding a golden scale in her hands. Her beautiful face was filled with longing.
"Where are you now? Do you know how much I miss you?" she murmured softly.
Ao Tian, who was about to reveal himself, froze upon hearing those words.
He decided against showing himself—he wanted to hear what Qian Renxue truly felt about him now.
