116: This is truly captivating!

Shen Pan helplessly held down Loli Ruan, who wanted to take a selfie and then go provoke Jiang Ruolai.

He casually tossed a white shirt onto her:

"Stop teasing Ruolai all the time. Be careful, or you might push her too far, and she'll come over while invisible to stab you!"

"You can't run very fast right now..."

Upon hearing this, a flush of red flashed across Ruan Qingshu's cold and exquisite face as she cooperatively put on the white shirt.

"Mm~ I was wrong. But surely I can introduce a health drink to Ruolai, right?"

"..."

Shen Pan's mouth twitched. This health drink only works on you, right?

And he didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Ruan Qingshu really wanted to let Jiang Ruolai discover things through some subtle details!

"Don't go too far."

"Don't worry, Ruolai and I are best friends; I won't bully her~"

After obtaining Shen Pan's consent, Ruan Qingshu was satisfied and recommended a batch of banana milk to her best friend.

But when Ruolai said: bring some for her too, Ruan Qingshu flatly refused!

Just kidding, this was all EXP that Shen Pan gave her for leveling up. She didn't even have enough for herself!

Of course, as her best friend, Ruan Qingshu could magnanimously allow her to hide at the door and observe the process of her drinking milk!

She could even place a table at the door to accommodate Ruolai's habits. When she and Shen Pan started playing ranked matches, the sounds they made would automatically cover up Ruolai's moans.

After all, she was one of the people in the whole world who cared about and valued Ruolai the most!

【Jiang Ruolai: Don't bring it then, you're so secretive. Remember to come home early this afternoon, and don't keep bothering Classmate Shen Pan.】

【Jiang Ruolai: I estimate that I'll be able to get out by the Imperial Capital Academy opening ceremony in three days. By then, I'll definitely give you all a super big surprise!!! (Covering mouth and giggling)】

【A Love Letter: I'll look forward to it. Don't worry, Ruolai, don't you know me? I'll leave right after eating.】

It was just the dinner on the day before school started, that's all. She never lies!!!

Ruan Qingshu had already made up her mind. She would call her mom in a bit, pester her, and apply for the right to stay overnight for a few days.

She was going to negotiate a business deal worth hundreds of billions! She had to reach the Fifth Rank Middle Stage before school started to give Ruolai a surprise!

Thinking of this, Ruan Qingshu's eyes drifted, and she rubbed her legs unnaturally. She was thirsty again...

Anyway, Shen Pan's body was in great shape, practically a perpetual motion machine. And she had a passive skill that accelerated stamina recovery, and she could even cast healing spells on herself.

She didn't need to worry about injuries; she could withstand a Tyrannosaurus Rex that ordinary people couldn't handle!

Isn't this much better than the small fry Ruolai?

Feeling her still aching and exhausted body, Ruan Qingshu looked at Shen Pan, who had started cleaning up the battlefield.

"Shen Pan, I'm Rank 52!"

"Is that so? The effect is that good?"

Shen Pan looked somewhat surprised at Ruan Qingshu, who had her hand on her chest and was wearing a relieved smile.

This wave for her was equivalent to jumping four Ranks directly!

Even if Qingshu said that only the first time was the most effective, the subsequent effects might decay by more than half.

But this was still a method of gaining extra EXP, similar to his 【White Tiger Guardian Soldier】!

It was just that the way of leveling up was a bit unconventional.

In fact, Ruan Qingshu was not the only beneficiary. During the process of the two of them having class and discussing the Dao, Shen Pan discovered that his own EXP bar was also slowly increasing.

That feeling of being of the same origin as Qingshu was amplified several times over. It was as if their Souls had resonated!

Therefore... 【Name: Shen Pan】【Rank: Rank 64 → Rank 65】

Perhaps he could reach the Sixth Rank Peak before the opening ceremony? Shen Pan thought uncertainly.

The prerequisite was that Loli Ruan had to stay for the next few days to attend his private tutoring class and undergo high-intensity remedial lessons.

Suddenly, Ruan Qingshu's gaze began to wander, and then it fixed on a certain part:

"By the way Shen Pan, I'm planning to tell my family that I won't be going back before school starts. After all, leveling up properly is the most important thing for us."

The other her in her mind, after receiving supplies from Shen Pan, had awakened for an instant once again.

It gave her experience regarding the development of the Authority of Death, as well as some methods she had never seen before!

It also told her to have more contact with Shen Pan, saying it would be good for both of them...

And Ruan Qingshu considered herself an obedient, good child.

"I've recovered almost enough, want to start a round?"

"..." Shen Pan could see that Loli Ruan's eyes were full of anticipation and desire.

"Yang Jian should have lunch ready; it wouldn't be good to be absent."

"I don't mind, but Qingshu, you need to pay attention to your body; it really won't do to not eat."

Qingshu's recovery ability was ultimately not as good as his. Doing it so many times in a row was still damaging to the body.

Seeming to have guessed his thoughts, Ruan Qingshu calmly reached out and grasped it, completely shedding the initial panic and feeling of being at a loss.

"But... I think I'm a little addicted."

"With Fifth Rank physical fitness, it's fine even if I don't eat for three days."

"Not to mention..." Ruan Qingshu stuck out the tip of her tongue and licked the corner of her mouth, attempting to ingest some nutrients.

"As I am now, I only need to drink more milk to maintain my life."

She, Ruan Qingshu, was serious about being a Loli Succubus!

...

At Yang Jian's home. Yang Jian, who had finished cooking early, had a strange expression.

"That's strange, why didn't those two freeloaders come today?"

Could it be that they were held up by something? Or did they find his cooking not exquisite enough and go eat out?

Because he knew of Shen Pan's combat power, which was comparable to a Seventh Rank Peak, Yang Jian could only think in that direction.

"Brother~ when are we eating. Maybe Senior Shen and Sister Ruan went on a secret date, let's eat first!"

Yang Yuchan shouted listlessly. A secret date... That makes sense!

Yang Jian looked at the table full of dishes and gave a bitter smile: "Fortunately, Xiaotian is here; there shouldn't be too much left over."

"Woof woof!" Under the table, a large black dog barked twice in cooperation, happily wagging its tail.

"Hehe, Xiaotian is so well-behaved, it makes me want to go out for a stroll and pick up a pet!"

Yang Yuchan petted the big black dog with a doting face. No, you don't!

Yang Jian always kept Shen Pan's warning in mind: do not let anyone with the surname Liu get close to his sister.

"Then let's eat, remember to wash your hands before the meal. Xiaotian too, don't use chopsticks, it's easy to scare people later on!"

"Woof!"

Xiaotian was a stray dog he had accidentally discovered when he went to buy groceries in the morning.

The first time Yang Jian saw this big black dog, he felt that this dog had a connection with him. It was very spiritual and suitable to take back as a pet!

It just so happened that at that time, several members of the Martial Administration Bureau, covered in scratch marks, were walking up, cursing and preparing to take this mutated big dog away.

And although Xiaotian only had Third Rank Peak strength, it was very tough. It had been beaten by several Fourth Rank Martial Artists for a long time and was still fine!

To save the dog that he found more and more pleasing to the eye, Yang Jian took action.

Through his identity as an Imperial Capital Academy freshman and the former number one person in the Great Xia deification system, he successfully protected the big black dog and named it Xiaotian.

Feeling his almost stagnant strength increase slightly again, the smile on Yang Jian's face became even brighter.

So, he could also achieve role-playing by raising a pet!
