Jiang Huai was speechless again, stammering for a long time without being able to speak. It wasn’t until Bai Jin leaned in front of him, her jet-black eyes staring at him without blinking for several seconds, that she smiled, “A Li told you, right?”
“Mm.”
“There’s some exaggeration, of course. It’s just that in our Monster Clan, generally speaking, there’s always a dominant party in a relationship. Whichever party is dominant gets to take the lead during intimacy. It’s not exactly a disgrace.”
“Is that so…” Jiang Huai nodded, seemingly understanding a bit.
“What, do you feel like you owe me from that day, so you want to compensate me and let me bully you back?” Bai Jin’s cheeks were so close that her breath fell on Jiang Huai’s face. Jiang Huai looked at the cunning in her eyes, his heart accelerating.
“If Aunt Bai wants to, it’s, um, not impossible… I, I can do anything.”
“But I see that Little Huai seems very reluctant.” Bai Jin reached out and gently pinched Jiang Huai’s face. “So, let’s forget it.”
Jiang Huai secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but then he heard a “ding-ding-ding” in his ear.
[Stop pretending. You’re still bothered by that Dual Cultivation session. You know perfectly well that you were in the wrong, yet Bai Jin took all the blame for you. Bai Jin proposing Dual Cultivation again is partly for that one-third of Scarlet Flame Red Dragon Essence Blood, and partly due to her humiliation. As a Ninth Realm Monster Cultivator, being utterly ravaged by a junior like you has shattered her pride. Thus, her instincts are driving her to find a way to be in control this time, which will finally calm the restless thoughts in her heart.]
[You are fully aware that your indirect refusal is just pretense. You’re not someone who cares about morality or laws and customs. If you did, you wouldn’t have been entangled with your Master Chu Xianning for years, nor would you have indulged her wildest whims when she was acting spoiled and crazy at Luo Yueguan instead of drawing a line. In reality, you are a despicable, greedy, and selfish bastard. You not only want to bully Bai Jin, but you also want to bully Bai Jin in front of Bai Li, just so she wouldn’t chatter in your ear all night, which is so annoying!]
[Mission Objective: Dual Cultivate with Bai Jin again in front of Bai Li.]
[Mission Reward: High-level Experience Scroll * 3.]
Seeing the system mission that suddenly appeared, Jiang Huai’s face darkened.
He flusteredly dragged the system mission to the to-do list, pretending not to see it. How could the damn system be getting more and more outrageous, even insulting its host?
The buns in the steamer were ready. Jiang Huai hastily stood up and went to call Bai Li, who was still asleep. Bai Li rubbed her eyes and walked out of the room. This time, she ate three large baskets of soup dumplings. While eating, her eyes were fixed on Jiang Huai, as if she were eating Jiang Huai’s flesh.
After eating her fill, Bai Li tilted her head up and looked at Jiang Huai. “Jiang Huai?”
“Yes?”
“I’m so bored, let’s have a fight.” Bai Li stood up.
***
Bai Li’s cultivation level was now at the fourth level of Void Refinement. The inheritance of her Snake Clan bloodline and the nourishment from the Dragon Crystal beforehand made her physical strength terrifying, not inferior to Jiang Huai’s Overlord Art at the sixth level. Jiang Huai, currently possessing the spiritual qi cultivation of the second level of Void Refinement, watched helplessly as Bai Li transformed into her Holy Dragon Lady form, clenched her fists, and adopted a starting stance. He reluctantly followed her to the courtyard, clenching his fists.
If he were to unleash all his spiritual qi, Jiang Huai would have a good chance of winning. However, Jiang Huai had no intention of winning. So, not long after, he was pinned down by Bai Li. She punched his chest with her small pink fists and then reached out to pinch his face, humming, “So weak.”
“I’m not using my sword.”
“Then use your sword?”
“No need. I’m not used to this spiritual qi yet. I’m afraid I’ll hurt you.” Jiang Huai replied softly. Bai Li replied with an “Oh,” and got off him. “Accompany me for a walk.”
Jiang Huai came to her side. Bai Li looked at Bai Jin again. “Mother, you too.”
“Then Mother will go change her clothes first.” Bai Jin smiled gently. Her dress was still wet, and it wouldn’t be appropriate to go out like this. She changed into a gilded palace dress, and her jet-black hair was styled elegantly. She came to Bai Li’s side, and the three of them left the Imperial Palace together, heading for the streets of the Snake Clan’s Imperial City.
The Snake Clan’s Imperial City was now bustling with activity compared to when Jiang Huai first arrived. Bai Li skipped along, buying a lot of food, occasionally stuffing a piece into Jiang Huai’s mouth. Bai Jin stood quietly beside them, accompanying them on a long stroll. It wasn’t until Bai Li got tired from all the walking that she draped herself onto Jiang Huai’s back. Jiang Huai carried her back to the Imperial City. It was time for a nap.
“I want to sleep with Mother.” Bai Li acted a little spoiled, and Bai Jin readily agreed. Back in the sleeping quarters, Bai Jin slept in the very center of the big bed, with Bai Li and Jiang Huai on either side. Bai Jin gently embraced them both, as if coaxing children.
Then, Bai Li’s eyes twinkled, and she sat up in bed, glancing at Jiang Huai before suddenly chuckling, “Jiang Huai?”
“Hmm?” Jiang Huai opened his eyes, confused.
“I’m itchy. Accompany me to do bad things.” Bai Li leaned closer to him, her white and tender little feet inching closer and resting on Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai immediately looked at her warily. “Can you just sleep obediently?”
“No, you bullied my Mother, so… I’m going to bully you in front of Mother too.” Bai Li proudly tilted her head. “Help Mother get her revenge. Do you agree or not?”
Bai Jin watched from the side, amused and speechless, but her eyes held a playful glint as she watched Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai’s face reddened, but Bai Li’s words weren’t entirely unreasonable. He could only reluctantly comply, allowing Bai Li to trample on and humiliate Little Huai’s dignity while Bai Jin watched them gently. Jiang Huai didn’t dare to look back at her, feeling increasingly guilty and blushing. Suddenly, Bai Jin reached out and gently grabbed Jiang Huai’s chin, turning his face so he had no choice but to look at her.
“Little Huai?”
“Yes?”
“It seems quite interesting.” Bai Jin leaned closer and asked in a soft voice.
“Is it, very interesting?”
“Mhm, it looks very interesting.”
Jiang Huai’s head felt fuzzy, and he was on the verge of tears. “Then, what does Aunt Bai want?”
“Will you play with Auntie too, okay?” Bai Jin leaned close to his ear. “Auntie will be very gentle.”
“J-just once, just, just once…”
“Little Huai is so good.”
Bai Jin suddenly leaned in and gave Jiang Huai’s cheek a smack.
This kiss, like a reward for a well-behaved child, made Jiang Huai’s head swim. But what was even more outrageous was Bai Li leaning in, hugging his arm and refusing to let him move. So, he could only watch as Bai Jin, sitting to the side, mimicked how Bai Li had bullied him earlier, slowly sliding her delicate pink feet. Jiang Huai wanted to close his eyes and play dead, but Bai Li leaned in and pinched his face. “Open your eyes!”
“Not opening!”
“Really not opening?”
“Really not opening.”
“Then I’ll bully you with Mother!”
Jiang Huai opened his eyes, his gaze filled with a resentful look towards Bai Li. Bai Li giggled happily beside him, while Bai Jin’s eyes were exceptionally serious. Her tender feet were delicate and smooth, as white as soft jade, yet they were slightly cool. Before long, Jiang Huai was on the verge of tears. She glanced back at Jiang Huai, tilted her head, and suddenly chuckled, “So interesting.”
“Wh-what’s interesting?”
“Seeing Little Huai look both wronged and pleased is interesting.”
Jiang Huai slumped, grabbed the quilt, and covered his head, pretending to be dead.
But Bai Li wasn’t done with him yet. She leaned in again and started to bully Jiang Huai with her white and tender little hands, even lifting his quilt and leaning in to kiss his lips. Jiang Huai’s head was completely fuzzy. He began to be no longer satisfied with being bullied like this by Bai Li. His mind started to drift to more seductive matters. In the brief pause between kisses, Bai Li leaned close to Jiang Huai’s ear. “No forbidden thoughts, no more thinking about bullying my Mother.”
“You didn’t say that last night.”
“Last night was last night, and now is now. The original intention was for Mother to get her revenge. Now I’m not satisfying you, and I’m not allowing you to do bad things, which is even more satisfying.” Bai Li playfully flicked Little Huai. “Anyway, you’re just not allowed to think about it.”
“You guys are bullying me.”
“Ew, are you acting spoiled now?” Bai Li reached out and pinched his face. “Then do you want to Dual Cultivate with Mother?”
“Don’t want, don’t want, don’t want, don’t want, don’t want, don’t want, don’t want.” At this moment, Jiang Huai’s head was so fuzzy that he was speaking incoherently, and tears were truly welling up inside him. He looked at Bai Li with a wronged expression. “C-can you stop bullying me?”
“So, do you want to, or not?”
“I can’t say… I don’t know… Stop asking, stop asking, stop asking, I’m going to die…”
Jiang Huai’s head was fuzzy, and he lost his senses. But he suddenly felt more weight on him. He was slightly stunned for a moment, then slowly opened his eyes. Bai Jin was now sitting gently on top of him, her knees pressing into the bed, her slender waist held perfectly straight. She easily pinned Jiang Huai beneath her. Her silvery white hair was spread down her back, and her long eyelashes fluttered slightly.
Bai Jin leaned forward slightly, looking at Jiang Huai’s face. Her voice was soft, but no longer as gentle as before. Instead, it exuded a strange sultriness. Jiang Huai saw the hazy lust in her eyes again. He saw her pink lips move, and a very, very quiet voice entered his ear. He heard her ask, “Can’t answer?”
“I-I-I… ”
“Then Aunt Bai will answer for you, okay?”
Bai Li stood to the side with her arms crossed, snorting, “Got the benefit and playing modest, Hmph.”
The series of stimuli finally broke Little Huai’s reason. “Bullying! You’re bullying me!”
“I’ll blow up with you!”
His hand grabbed Bai Jin’s slender waist, lifting it slightly. The next moment, Bai Jin’s eyes widened slightly. Before she could react, she had lost all room to struggle. Instantly, her toes tensed, her lips were bitten, and almost instinctively, she let out a soft hum. In the next moment, with all her might, she regained her senses and pressed her hands against Jiang Huai’s chest. However, her eyes no longer held the gentleness of before, but a hint of playful anger. She spoke in a commanding tone, “Disobedient again.”
She leaned down, her face close to Jiang Huai’s, her breath falling on his cheeks. She adjusted her posture slightly, pressing against Jiang Huai’s ear. “Today, only Little Huai will beg for mercy. After this, I won’t bully you anymore.”
At this moment, the frantic Jiang Huai wasn’t listening. Instead, he angrily leaned towards Bai Jin’s ear. “Not listening, not listening! You’re all bullying me, but I’m not that easy to bully!”
“Mhm?” Bai Jin’s snow-white legs tightened slightly.
Jiang Huai’s eyes widened.
Is this a Snake Clan innate skill?
