Ye Qiu and Zhu Zhuqing's voices echoed in the alleyways of Notting City.
This seemed to be the very place where Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu had parted ways.
After a brief pause, Ye Qiu took Zhu Zhuqing's soft hand and led her into the carving shop.
Zhu Zhuqing, her face flushed and radiant, clung to Ye Qiu's arm
. "Husband, let's visit the village chief and the others tonight."
"Yes, whatever you say."
Ye Qiu smiled slightly, remembering that Zhu Zhuqing quite enjoyed sparring with the women.
He suggested, "How about we go to the Soul Arena tomorrow? If one is not enough, we can go to several more and have some fun."
"Okay."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded with a smile. Although
she practiced sparring with her sisters every day, and even used her full strength against Liu Erlong,
the difference in skill level didn't help her much.
Only real battles could truly excite her.
"Then it's settled. After I do a solo Soul Battle, you'll accompany me in a duo Soul Battle."
"As your husband, of course I'd be happy to oblige."
Ye Qiu gently brushed a strand of hair from Zhu Zhuqing's cheek and pinched her fair face.
They hadn't walked far when they arrived at the entrance of the Tom and Jerry carving shop.
It was midday, and quite deserted.
Ye Qiu led Zhu Zhuqing inside and saw a thin little girl sitting at a table, reading a book.
"Xiao Tian."
Ye Qiu's voice made Hen Qiutian put down his book.
A hint of joy appeared in his eyes, and when he looked up, he was stunned by the pair of bright, bound breasts in the cloth bag.
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's slightly youthful face
, he couldn't help but feel a little envious. Such a young age, yet such a large figure.
At the same time, he looked at Ye Qiu in shock.
How many was this?
The third?
No. This was only the third she had seen. According to her grandparents, they had seen others.
"Senior Ye Qiu, you've arrived!"
Henhou Tian couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
How did Ye Qiu manage to do this?
The women around him were all so beautiful and outstanding, each with their own unique charm and allure.
Although Henhou Tian had to admit that
Ye Qiu was also outstanding, and possessed the kind of appearance that most girls would find attractive,
she still couldn't understand.
Did these girls even know of each other's existence?
Ye Qiu brought one of them every day; was he on his way to becoming a master of time management?
"Xiao Tian, Xiao Tian?!"
"Oh, Senior Ye Qiu, what's wrong?"
Ye Qiu looked at the dazed Henhou Tian and called out several times before finally waking him up.
"Nothing, I was just asking where Grandpa Jerry and the others are."
"Grandpa and the others are resting; I'm in charge of the shop,"
Henhou Tian explained.
"I see."
Ye Qiu nodded in understanding and then introduced Zhu Zhuqing:
"Zhuqing, this is the little girl with innate full soul power that Xiao Wu mentioned; she's kind of my sworn sister."
Hearing Ye Qiu's words...
Hen Qiutian was somewhat surprised, even shocked. These women seemed to know of each other's existence?
"Hello,"
Zhu Zhuqing greeted Hen Qiu softly, arm in arm with Ye Qiu,
her eyes filled with curiosity.
"Heh, as for her name, let her say it herself,"
Ye Qiu chuckled. Hen Qiutian's eagerness was not out of his notice.
Hen Qiutian's face flushed slightly as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing beside Ye Qiu and pursed his red lips.
He extended his hand to Ye Qiu's woman again.
"Hello, sister. My name is Hen Qiutian. My martial soul is Blue Silver Flying Hammer, and I'm a level 26 Power Attack type Battle Soul Master.
"
Henqiu Tian's martial soul appeared in her hand, two yellow soul rings encircling the chain that resembled blue silver grass.
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned.
She finally understood why Ye Qiu wanted her to introduce herself.
A somewhat cold voice came from her mouth.
"Zhu Zhuqing, martial soul Netherworld Cat, level 48 agility-attack type battle soul master."
"Meow!"
Before the words were finished, a loud meow rang out in the shop.
A pair of soft cat ears popped out from Zhu Zhuqing's head, a hooked tail waving at her lower back, and
sharp claws extending from her hands.
Her taller, fuller figure was adorned with four soul rings, two yellow and two purple.
Zhu Zhuqing had a premonition.
She would take a step forward within this month.
"Level 48 Soul Master!"
Henqiu Tian looked at Zhu Zhuqing in shock. She hadn't expected that this woman, whose figure far exceeded her actual age, was the most talented among the women Ye Qiu had brought.
"That's right, it's all thanks to my husband."
Zhu Zhuqing calmly dispelled her martial soul possession and nestled beside Ye Qiu.
Since she was Ye Qiu's sworn sister,
she naturally wouldn't be stingy with her praise.
"It's all because of Senior Ye Qiu."
Henhou Tian stared blankly at Ye Qiu.
Yesterday, Sister Rongrong seemed to have also said that her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was also thanks to Senior Ye Qiu.
So,
is this why so many talented girls follow Ye Qiu?
Not because they are inherently so extraordinary.
But because Ye Qiu has the ability to enhance others' talents?!
That must be it!
Henhou Tian looked at Ye Qiu with some excitement, dispelled her martial soul possession, glanced at the curtain of the inner room behind,
and immediately knelt down before Ye Qiu.
"Xiao Tian! What are you doing?"
Ye Qiu released Zhu Zhuqing's hand and immediately squatted down to help Henhou Tian up.
Zhu Zhuqing followed closely behind.
Henhou Tian ignored Ye Qiu and Zhu Zhuqing's help and remained kneeling on the ground.
A firm voice, tinged with coldness, said,
"Senior Ye Qiu, please help me. I want to become stronger too, and I'm willing to pay any price."
With that,
she took the blood-stained black box from her soul tool.
"Senior, this is a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone. If you're willing to help me, this soul bone, and everything I can give you, is yours!"
"Please, Senior!"
Ye Qiu and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged glances ,
about to reply.
Suddenly, footsteps came from inside the room. Ye Qiu frowned.
"Xiao Tian, get up quickly, Grandpa Jerry is coming out."
"?!"
Hearing Ye Qiu's words
, Hen Qiu Tian immediately got up and put the black box back into his soul tool.
When Jerry emerged from behind the curtain,
he saw the three of them sitting at the table. Hen Qiu Tian was calmly pouring tea for Ye Qiu.
Old Jerry rubbed his eyes sleepily.
"Hey Xiao Qiu, you silly boy, why did you bring another little girl we've never seen before? If the old lady sees you, she'll scold you again."
Ye Qiu chuckled awkwardly, unsure how to respond, so he introduced her.
Zhu Zhuqing greeted him politely.
"Hello, Grandpa Jerry."
"Hey, hey, hello little girl, you two chat, I need to go to the bathroom and go back to sleep."
Jerry felt a little uneasy under Zhu Zhuqing's gaze, as if suppressed by his bloodline, and didn't linger.
