248: Chapter 248

Xiao Bai was stunned for a moment; things were not as simple as he had imagined. The boast he had made with such confidence just now was now slapping him in the face.

“Don't be so depressed just yet, we can think of another way.”

Xiao Bai gently twirled his index finger, and as he focused his intent, a dagger transformed into a saw.

“Since the Dragon horns are so stubborn, we'll have to resort to some extreme measures.”

Ao Xue was at a loss: “I'm afraid that won't work. I've tried this method before, and they just grow back.”

Xiao Bai took out a bottle of potion: “Maybe you didn't remove them completely before. Combined with the miracle medicine from the Little Fairy Doctor, how will we know if we don't try?”

Under Xiao Bai's persuasion, Ao Xue gradually let go of her reservations. Removing the Dragon horns on her forehead was something she had dreamed of.

“Bear with it, this process might be a little painful.”

“Mm...”

Xiao Bai took the saw and pressed it tightly against Ao Xue's forehead. As soon as it touched the Dragon horns, he pulled it a few times, causing Ao Xue excruciating pain.

“Ah, it hurts! It really hurts!”

The heart-wrenching screams soon reached the main gate, where the two guards could hear them clearly.

They didn't know whether the Sixth Princess inside the room was truly in pain or expressing some kind of pleasure.

“Sister Rong, should we go in and check? Your Highness wouldn't be in any danger, would she?”

“Don't be nosy. Have you forgotten the Dragon Emperor's instructions? No matter what sounds come from inside, we must pretend we didn't hear anything.”

Xiao He's mouth twitched slightly: “But, Your Highness might be hurt.”

“You're still young and don't understand the affairs between men and women. Judging by this sound, the Princess must be incredibly happy.”

“If you can't stand the sound, just plug your ears quickly. Absolutely do not go in and disturb them, otherwise, both of our lives will be forfeit.”

Ao Xue gritted her teeth, her face full of pain, and beads of sweat the size of beans were already forming on her forehead.

“Gentler, it really hurts.”

Xiao Bai steadied his posture and continued with the previous rhythm.

“I'll get you some medicine. I've already sawed off one horn. Just endure a little longer, and we'll be done.”

He gestured lightly, and a piece of cloth flew over.

“Bite on this first, don't bite your tongue later.”

Looking at the slender Dragon horns, they were actually very hard. Xiao Bai used all his might to saw them all off.

“Sigh, finally done!”

“I'll apply the medicine first, then bandage you up. I hope the medicine the Little Fairy Doctor gave us works.”

Chapter 333: I'm Taking Your Sister

Xiao Bai took out a bottle of ointment and gently applied it to Ao Xue's forehead; it was milky white and slightly viscous.

“Bear with it. The healing medicine prepared by the Little Fairy Doctor is very effective; my previous skin wounds healed very quickly.”

“Mm...” Ao Xue nodded slightly, her nose smelling the strong scent of alcohol.

She looked at Xiao Bai with her large, watery eyes; it was her first time observing him at such close range.

His chiseled, handsome face made her a bit intoxicated. Xiao Bai was the most successful male demon at Taking Human Form she had ever seen.

This was also Ao Xue's first time in such close contact with a member of the opposite sex. She felt very nervous, and her heart was beating faster.

“Don't move, the medicine hasn't been applied evenly yet. If you're sleepy, you can lean on my shoulder and doze off.”

“There are still some Dragon horn remnants. While I apply the medicine, I also need to repair it. Such a beautiful face mustn't be left with any aftereffects.”

Whether in his tone or his actions, Xiao Bai was extremely gentle, giving Ao Xue a sense of being cared for, and she felt warm inside.

“How about we go to the bed? This position isn't very convenient to work with.”

Ao Xue nodded slightly, not questioning Xiao Bai's true intentions.

“I really am just helping you apply the medicine, I have no other thoughts.”

Xiao Bai didn't forget to explain, fearing that Ao Xue would misunderstand him.

Lying flat on the bed, Ao Xue had a very well-proportioned figure, and her inconspicuous breasts became much more prominent.

This had a lot to do with her previous clothing style; her loose and conservative attire really didn't show off her chest.

After more than half an hour of patient repair, the Dragon horn remnants on Ao Xue's forehead were all cleaned up.

It was as if she had never grown horns at all. Xiao Bai even waited a while, but didn't notice the Dragon horns growing back.

He sighed with relief: “This time they won't grow back, right? As expected, only the Little Fairy Doctor's medicine works.”

Seeing Xiao Bai stop his actions, Ao Xue slowly opened her eyes.

“Is it done?”

A mirror flew in front of her. Seeing that there wasn't a single scar left on her forehead, Ao Xue was extremely excited.

She almost wanted to jump onto Xiao Bai and give him a big kiss, but in the end, reason overcame impulse.

Resting for a while just now had improved her spirit, and her head was no longer so dizzy.

She picked up a pot of wine and handed it to Xiao Bai: “Thank you for your hard work, Snake King. I'll drink first as a toast.”

Gulp! Gulp!

Before Xiao Bai could speak, Ao Xue drank more than half a pot of wine in one go.

“Hey, you just applied the medicine, drinking like this without regard for your life, aren't you afraid the wound will get infected?”

“Don't think that just because you don't have any scars now, it's because the Little Fairy Doctor's medicine is very good.”

It really was "speak of the devil." With a few creaking sounds, cracks began to appear on Ao Xue's originally smooth and fair forehead.

Two Dragon horns grew back like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Even worse, they were thicker than before, and the golden Dragon horns were slightly marked with a few large black spots.

This time, not only did it fail to remove them, but it also made Ao Xue even uglier than before. Immediately after, many freckles grew on her face.

“Ah...”

Ao Xue covered her cheeks and let out continuous painful roars, much sharper than the previous sounds. Even the palace a hundred meters away could hear this sound.

Ao Wuming woke up from his sleep and quickly got up: “No way, the sound is so loud, Sixth Princess should restrain herself a bit.”

“Brother Bai is really something, not gentle at all. Sixth Princess is so delicate, how can she withstand such devastation from him?”

Afterward, he took out two tufts of beast fur and plugged his ears; if he couldn't hear it, he wouldn't let his imagination run wild.

Seeing Ao Xue in this state, Xiao Bai was full of guilt. He didn't know if it was because Ao Xue drank alcohol or if the method of using this medicine was wrong.

“I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it.”

“There's nothing else I can do about this matter. Given the current situation, I can only take you to find the Little Fairy Doctor.”

Ao Xue looked at her ugly reflection in the mirror, in extreme pain. If she had known this would be the result, she definitely wouldn't have let Xiao Bai saw off her Dragon horns.

She covered her face and wailed, wishing she could die.

Xiao Bai gently patted her shoulder and comforted her: “I was reckless. I will definitely take responsibility for you.”

He brought a black veil to help Ao Xue cover the freckles on her face, then put a bamboo hat on her, wrapping her up tightly so that other members of the Dragon Clan couldn't see her like this.

Xiao Bai patted his shoulder: “Come on up, I'll take you to the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan. Only the Little Fairy Doctor can cure this.”

Ao Xue had no other choice now but to trust Xiao Bai again. She felt she also had some responsibility; she shouldn't have been drinking recklessly to celebrate just now.

Just at this moment, the Little Cute Girl System was urging Xiao Bai to hurry up and confirm the quota, as he needed to report it to the System Bureau immediately.

There were less than two months left before the cubs were born, and he had to prepare for maternity leave. This was also thanks to the two little ones.

Working all year round without rest, 996 was already the norm, and he had done his fair share of 007 as well. That's just how competitive it was.

Considering that the benefits at the System Bureau were quite good, he just had to endure it.

Before leaving, Xiao Bai specifically sent another message to Ao Wuming.

“I'm taking your sister, the Sixth Princess, with me. She will stay at the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan for a while.”

Ao Wuming was extremely excited: “Big Brother is mighty, Big Brother is impressive! You managed to handle that little spitfire of a Sixth Princess so quickly.”

“I heard Sixth Princess's sharp roars from far away. You should treat her well in the future.”

Xiao Bai scolded: “Stop thinking nonsense, nothing happened between us.”

“I'm not going to waste words with you. I don't have time to explain to you right now.”

“Alright, safe travels, Big Brother. If Xiao Xue doesn't listen, you can tell me anytime.”

Based on Ao Wuming's understanding of Xiao Bai, he must have just gone through a fierce battle with his sister; otherwise, she wouldn't have let out such tragic roars.

Among millions of the Dragon Clan, they couldn't even produce one Emperor Realm Expert. Previously, there was the old Dragon Emperor to save face.

In Ao Wuming's mind, Xiao Bai was already his brother-in-law for sure. With this relationship, the revival of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon was just around the corner.

Xiao Bai contacted Tian Kui immediately and obtained the latest coordinates of the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan's territory.

Ao Xue obediently lay on his back, and Xiao Bai tore open space.

“Hold on to me tightly, we're about to enter the spatial wormhole.”

This was the first time Ao Xue had seen an Emperor Realm Expert perform such a unique skill. She clung tightly to Xiao Bai's back.

A tingling sensation of softness spread throughout Xiao Bai's entire body, while Ao Xue was full of shyness, keeping her head down the whole time.

Such a back full of security was something she had only felt when she was a child with the old Dragon Emperor.

Xiao Bai condensed a protective shield around his body to protect Ao Xue, fearing that her delicate body wouldn't be able to withstand the raging winds of space.

“Don't be afraid, I said I would take responsibility for you, and I will definitely help you heal your face.”

“The Little Fairy Doctor has excellent medical skills, she will definitely have a way to cure you.”

Ten seconds later, Xiao Bai arrived at the teleportation array to the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan, where Tian Kui and the Little Fairy Doctor were already waiting there.
