Su Chen saw Hu Liena sit down and moved closer to her, teasingly saying,"I wanted to sleep, but look—those three tents over there, Yan and Xie Yue each have one, and I don't dare enter Elder Ju's tent. That only leaves your tent."
Hu Liena blushed at his words and shot him a glare, but to Su Chen, she looked irresistibly charming.
Su Chen felt pleased inside and leaned in, wrapping his arm around Hu Liena's waist. Soft and comfortable.
At once, Hu Liena shuddered and didn't dare move. She had been ready to say something, but her mind went blank, and her face flushed red.
This was like a completely different person from the proactive girl she had been earlier that day. She could only talk big, but when it came to the real deal, she was left dumbfounded.
"I... you..."
Seeing Hu Liena at a loss for words, Su Chen pulled back his hand and smiled,"There's a saying back home: Love at first sight is really just attraction to appearance. The one you like is just the face. Don't you think so?"
After Su Chen withdrew, Hu Liena felt a slight loss and stammered,"I-I don't know."
Su Chen gently pinched her fair cheek, an intimate move that made her, who had just started to recover, blush even deeper.
"I think that's right because when you first meet, neither side really knows the other. So the liking must start from the face."
Hu Liena looked down, playing with the hem of her clothes and stammered,"So you're... talking about me?"
Su Chen chuckled,"You're not dumb. The reason I'm telling you this is because I don't want to lie to you."
"Nana, do you really like me?"
Hearing this, Hu Liena instantly tensed, clutching her clothes tightly, then softly said,"If it was before, maybe I wouldn't be sure... because although you're handsome, your strength was too weak. The teacher definitely wouldn't approve of us being together."
"But after seeing your strength yesterday, it was love at first sight... just think of it as attraction to appearance!"
"Su Chen, what about you?"
Her eyes full of hope, Hu Liena grew nervous, fearing rejection.
Su Chen looked at her surprised, didn't answer directly, and said,"Three months ago, I was a useless soul master. Back then, my dream was to train hard, become a great soul master, then find a small village and marry four or five wives as a great soul master, living peacefully."
Hu Liena nodded slightly and mumbled,"That's a very practical dream. Even if you hadn't gotten stronger, you would've gotten your wish."
"But now that dream surely doesn't satisfy you, right? Your dream now must be to carve out your own place and become famous?"
Su Chen shook his head smiling,"Not anymore. My strength is growing, and so is my dream."
"My dream now is... to marry ten young and beautiful wives. As long as they're beautiful, I want them all!"
As he said this, Su Chen clenched his fist... I want them all!
Hu Liena: ???
She was stunned.
But looking at Su Chen's serious face, he didn't look like he was joking!
Seriously?Is that really your dream?
Hu Liena couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, then asked,"So, should I praise you for not forgetting your original intention?"
Su Chen smiled and patted Hu Liena's head,"It's late. You should rest! If you really decide, remember to call me."
Hu Liena quietly watched Su Chen, feeling a bit complicated inside.
Such a serious person harbored such an unserious dream—marrying ten wives?
In the shadows,
Guimei overheard the young couple's conversation, shook his head, and murmured,"Kids will always be kids."
"Only kids think they can have it all. Adults know... the waist can't handle it."
Suddenly,
Hu Liena seemed to have thought of something, pressed herself against Su Chen, looking charming and seductive,"So, am I the first woman you've ever been with?"
Feeling the softness all over, Su Chen swallowed hard and nodded,"Y-yes."
Hu Liena smiled brightly,"Then no matter what happens later, right now you're only mine, and you only like me."
Without hesitation, she kissed him. Originally, she had only planned to lightly peck and steal Su Chen's first kiss.
But Su Chen wasn't having any of that.
No way!
Did she really think he was some nice guy?
Immediately, Su Chen picked Hu Liena up onto his lap and gave her a deep, wet kiss.
[Congratulations to Hu Liena for triggering a hidden quest reward: Soul Power increased by ten levels.]
[Congratulations to Hu Liena for being the first to trigger the hidden quest reward: A 100,000-year soul ring and a 100,000-year soul bone.]
"Hoo!"
Hu Liena almost lost her breath. Just as she was about to get off Su Chen's lap, she suddenly heard the rewards notification again and excitedly hugged him tighter.
Duang!
Su Chen's mind exploded.
It was over.
He couldn't breathe.
It was over.
The Nine Yang Divine Skill inside him was boiling over.
Just as Hu Liena was happily enjoying the moment, she suddenly felt something and blushed all the way to her neck, then hurriedly ran into the tent.
Soul City.
The Pope's Chambers.
Bibi Dong, who had just gotten the rewards and was ready to sleep peacefully, suddenly saw the dungeon quest message and was stunned.
Wait?
What happened?
Bibi Dong stared at the two new reward messages updating in the quest log and was completely shocked.
"Nana, what did you do?"
This was terrifying.
Originally, Nana was only level 49, and within days she had skyrocketed to level 60 and gained two sets of 100,000-year soul rings and bones??
Bibi Dong couldn't believe it. Hu Liena's luck was ridiculously crazy—last time she triggered a hidden reward, it was also her!
No way!
She had to ask her thoroughly when she got back.
Meanwhile,
Women across the continent who had quest logs, having just seen today's rewards, had already fallen asleep.
But suddenly, all of them were jolted awake by Hu Liena's rewards.
"Hu Liena! That damn little fox again!""What kind of charm does she have? How does she keep getting hidden rewards? Two sets of 100,000-year soul rings and bones already!"
Especially those whose names hadn't even appeared in the quest log content—they didn't even know what Su Chen looked like, yet they were driven crazy by Hu Liena's rewards.
Their hearts felt nothing but unfairness!
