Chapter Thirty-Eight: Taking a Bath

  Night

  "Hmm, it should be late already, right? The time? Hmm, it's already 19:20. I reckon those assassins should be getting impatient too. After all, none of the people who came yesterday managed to escape, and I killed quite a few of them~ Hehehe!" Wu Yeyu, who had been practicing with Wen Xueyue for a day, was now lying in the large bathtub with a smug expression, accompanied by a little loli beside him.

  "Brother Wu, I hate you! Everyone says that men and women shouldn't be so close to each other, but you just won't listen. How am I supposed to face people in the future if you keep acting like this? Hurry up and get out of here, okay? I promise I won't make you wait too long after I'm done washing." Wen Xueyue, who was also in the bathtub, had her entire body submerged in water, with only a small head poking out above the surface. Her two small hands were constantly pushing against Wu Yeyu, who refused to leave the water, his face filled with shame and anger.

  "Hey, how can that be? I just said it a while ago, didn't I? After being tired all day, I need to take a good bath to recover. You want to rush and wash first, but I don't mind taking a bath with you, Xi Yue. So, you don't have to worry about it. Besides, haven't I already taken the candles outside? Don't worry, it's pitch black here now, nothing can be seen. Xi Yue, just take your bath at ease. If some bad person breaks in, Night Rain brother will block them for you!" Wu Ye Yu closed his eyes with a look of enjoyment, silently enduring Little Lori's weak pushes and pulls, feeling as if someone was giving him a massage, extremely comfortable. He turned his head to look at Wen Xi Yue who was still complaining nonstop, a hint of complacency on his thick-skinned face.

  "Hmph! Night Rain brother's face is so thick, and he still says he wants to take the blame for me! I think the biggest villain is clearly right here, and it's right next to me!" Wen Xueyue pushed Wu Yeru for a while, only to find that he didn't react at all, but instead had a look of enjoyment on his face. Suddenly, she was speechless, silently scolding the person in front of her for being so shameless. However, she didn't continue to obstruct him, and instead quietly curled up in one corner of the bathtub, gently washing her body, trying not to make any noise.

  "Oh! There are bad people!? Where are they, Xi Yue don't be afraid! Night Rain brother is here, I will definitely protect you well, hey! Look at my unparalleled divine sense! Scan for me!" Wu Ye Yu immediately placed his two hands together, pointing to the two temples on either side of his head, his fingers emitting a slight tremble, and he was still humming "heh heh" as if accompanying himself, it really looked like he was using his divine sense to scan.

  Wen Xue Yue rolled her eyes and whispered, "Nye Yu Gege~, I heard Grandfather say that only a Sword King-level expert can control their divine sense to do simple things. Those below the Sword King level, even if they're exceptionally gifted, can only passively release their divine sense and can't control it at all. Could it be that Nye Yu Gege~ has reached the Sword King realm after a day of bitter cultivation?"

  "Oh!? Haha, I see! So that's how it is. I've gained some knowledge. I was wondering why I couldn't control my divine sense no matter how hard I tried. It turns out that you can only get special skills after becoming a Sword King master. Hmm, indeed high-end! Thanks to Xue Yue sister for clearing up the confusion! *licks lips* To express my gratitude, I've decided... to help Xue Yue sister wash your body! Don't refuse, Xue Yue sister, or I'll be too ashamed to show my face!"

  After saying that, Wu Ye Yu pounced on Little Luo Li with a big grin, causing Wen Xue Yue to shriek in terror. However, since they were underground and in an enclosed space, no one could hear her screams even if she shouted at the top of her lungs.

  In an instant, the bathtub was turbulent with huge waves and wailing sounds, the situation could only be described as shocking heaven and earth, and making ghosts cry. It was like a level 10 hurricane blowing by, and then suddenly there was a "crack!" sound. The ice crystal bathtub, which was half a centimeter thick, couldn't withstand this force and split open from the middle, collapsing in an instant, shattering into pieces. In that moment, the bathwater also became like a runaway wild horse, swirling around the bathroom before rushing through the narrow door into another room!

  "I hate it! Brother Ye Yu, it's all your fault. Look, the bathtub is broken and water is everywhere! We can't live outside either, you've made a mess! Brother Ye Yu, you have to stay with me!" At this time, the two were in a standard lotus position, little loli Wen Xiyue had her legs wrapped around Wu Yeyu's waist, her small hands constantly pounding on Wu Yeyu's shoulders, making a loud noise.

  Wu Yeru grasped Wen Xiyue's plump buttocks with both hands, rubbing them back and forth. Taking advantage of Wen Xiyue's momentary stunned state, he took liberties with her. As the little loli gradually regained consciousness from the sudden turn of events, she discovered her current predicament and let out a sharp cry, struggling to get down from Wu Yeru's body. However, Wu Yeru was prepared and tightly hugged Wen Xiyue's slender waist.

  "Hey, don't be scared, Xi Yue! It's just a bathtub, isn't it? Just wave my hand and I'll have one. And don't worry about the water either! Watch this! Hmm, Xi Yue, hold on tight now, the ground is all muddy and dirty, if you fall off, you'll get your body all dirty and there won't be any water to take a bath~" Wu Ye Yu let go of Wen Xi Yue's hands and continued to draw circles in the air with her hands, her feet occasionally jumping up and down, just like a shaman performing a ritual dance, thoroughly enjoying herself.

  Wen Xue Yue listened to Wu Ye Yu's words and suddenly calmed down, her hands and feet tightly wrapped around Wu Ye Yu like an octopus, subconsciously not wanting to enter the dirty water on the ground. A moment later, she reacted and was instantly embarrassed, her small face flushed with shame and anger, but she didn't get off Wu Ye Yu's body, only venting her anger by biting down on Wu Ye Yu's shoulder with her sharp teeth.

  "Ah!" At this moment, Wu Ye Yu was rapidly controlling the water flow floating in mid-air, constantly separating out dust and debris. He suddenly felt a sharp pain and sucked in a cold breath. For an instant, his attention wavered, and the water flow in the air almost collapsed. Fortunately, Wu Ye Yu had become much stronger since then, with increased cultivation and control over water. At this critical moment, he managed to steady himself and stabilize the falling water flow once again.

  "Stop messing around! Can't you see I'm in the middle of something important? If not, we'll really have no water to take a bath later." After saying that, he also gave a light pat on Wen Xueyue's butt, causing a ripple effect, and Wen Xueyue let out a low cry, her body went soft, and she quickly loosened her grip, as if afraid of Wu Yeru's buttock attack, honestly hugging Wu Yeru and stopped moving. Seeing this situation, Wu Yeru's mouth slightly hooked up, freed one hand to gently stroke Wen Xueyue's smooth back, comforting her.

  A few minutes later, Wu Ye Yu carried Wen Xue Yue back to the bathtub and didn't tease her again. Instead, he carefully washed her body, during which neither of them spoke. Wen Xue Yue's eyes were closed, and apart from that, she didn't make any extra movements. Her delicate body trembled slightly as it silently endured Wu Ye Yu's gentle wiping.

  It wasn't until Wu Yeyu carried little Luoli out of the bathroom in a princess carry that half an hour had passed.

  Looking at the outside, it was as if it had been drenched in a torrential rain and then dried by the scorching sun. Wu Yuer suddenly scratched his head, and the blanket was covered with dust, as if it had survived a sandstorm. It was definitely uninhabitable, and the entire room was also filled with dust everywhere. Who would have thought that Wu Yuer's water control technique was so powerful? Not only did it gather all the water in the bathtub, but it also left little moisture in the air. With this cycle of flood and drought, the surrounding cave walls were no longer smooth, and a small amount of powder fell continuously, although not to the point of collapse, but the surface was no longer as stable as before.

  "Phew~ Fortunately, Xue Yue had put the clothes in the storage space earlier, otherwise they wouldn't even have clothes to wear. Tsk! It seems we can't live here anymore, only dig a new one." Wu Ye Yu took out the clothes from the space and dressed Xue Yue, who was still perched on his chest, then changed into a short-sleeved outfit himself. He pulled up little Luo Li's hand and started building her a new home.

  I went up to the small courtyard in the daytime, and packed as much stuff as I could into my storage space. Almost the entire room was emptied out. After all, these were my own things, so I had some sentimental attachment to them. The furniture, bedding, etc. were all taken care of. If not for the fact that my cultivation level wasn't high enough, Wu Ye Yu's large water jar condensed using his Water Control Technique would have probably been stuffed into the storage space as well. However, after thinking about it for a bit, I ultimately only took out the fish swimming inside and left the large water jar in the center of the courtyard. As for the reason... naturally, it was to attract the attention of any assassins! Hehe!

  This time, Wu Yeru didn't skimp on time and carefully built a spacious residence for Wen Xiyue. Although the layout wasn't as elaborate as those on the ground, it was still well thought out. The place had a bathroom, toilet, training room, and even two bedrooms, which were specially made at Xiyue's insistence. Wu Yeru couldn't help but go along with her wishes when he saw the determined look on the little loli's face, despite her shy expression.

  After putting up the furniture I got from upstairs, a complete home was set up. Although there were no luxurious decorations or embellishments, with the earthy colors of the surroundings as a foil, it had a unique rustic charm that made people feel very warm and cozy.

  Having washed away his fatigue, Wu Ye Yu was now lying on the small bed in his own room, with a helpless expression. It wasn't that he didn't want to hold Wen Xue Yue and sleep, but this little girl had also become cunning. In order to drive Wu Ye Yu out of the room, she even used her strength, although not to the point of punching and kicking, but still managed to push Wu Ye Yu out of the room with a thick face. Then, twisting her small face and pouting her mouth, with both hands on her hips and a warning expression, she said to Wu Ye Yu: if you dare to mess around again, I won't be polite!

  "Hmm, these beauties from other worlds are just not good at this point, too shy. They've seen everything, yet they still want to keep their distance. Tsk! Still need to be trained!" Wu Yeyu muttered to himself with his hands behind his head.

  "Ah! The assassin has arrived!"
