"Mm~"
Bo Saixi moaned softly.
For some reason, her body was especially sensitive today.
"Please don't make those misleading sounds," Su Bai said, his expression serious as he stared at Bo Saixi. "I'm giving you a proper treatment. Don't worry, it will heal you completely without any side effects."
Su Bai was indeed treating her. By touching Bo Saixi's smooth and delicate skin, his power flowed into her body.
This power created a warm stream that nourished Bo Saixi's injured meridians.
To prevent a sudden relapse of her condition today, Su Bai was being extremely meticulous.
Bo Saixi's face turned crimson as she heard Su Bai's words. "But, it feels really good."
Bo Saixi could constantly feel the warm stream moving through her body.
Although it was indeed healing her injuries, it also gave her an immensely pleasurable sensation.
This was not ordinary comfort.
It was the kind of pleasure that made Bo Saixi's face flush and made her feel incredibly shy.
Moreover, being directly in front of Su Bai during this process made Bo Saixi feel even more embarrassed.
"Alright, turn around." Su Bai said, helping Bo Saixi turn over, then continuing to place his hands on her smooth, fair back.
This at least reduced Bo Saixi's shyness, allowing her to secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
The treatment continued for an unknown amount of time.
Time passed slowly.
As Su Bai treated Bo Saixi, her condition quickly improved. The Void Storm was a power Su Bai could control freely, so healing such injuries was effortless for him.
It was an easy task that also helped him gain Bo Saixi's favor, making Su Bai feel very satisfied.
Su Bai knew he wouldn't stay on Seagod Island for much longer. He needed to completely heal Bo Saixi before leaving.
But, he couldn't rush it.
Though the treatment was in its final stages, hurrying could lead to unforeseen consequences, which would be counterproductive.
So, after this session ended, Su Bai withdrew his hands.
Bo Saixi's face was flushed, and her beautiful eyes were filled with a dreamy expression.
This treatment had made her feel very comfortable.
Su Bai also brought his hands to his nose and sniffed them.
There was indeed a fresh, girlish fragrance.
Such a scent was heart-stirring.
After so many days of treatment, Bo Saixi had become accustomed to being like this in front of Su Bai.
So she turned around without any reservations, stretching lazily in front of Su Bai and exhaling slowly, her expression relaxed.
Seeing Bo Saixi's exquisite, beautiful face and her snow-white, delicate skin, Su Bai felt an itch in his heart.
Unable to resist, Su Bai pulled Bo Saixi into his arms.
"Mm..." Bo Saixi let out a shy moan. After all, she had just been treated.
This time, without the excuse of treatment, Su Bai was worried that Bo Saixi might resist him.
But to his surprise, Bo Saixi let Su Bai hold her and shyly lowered her head.
This made Su Bai inwardly delighted.
Although he had touched her before under the guise of treatment, it was different now.
Without that excuse, Su Bai wore a serious expression and enjoyed the moment.
"Mm~"
"Su Bai..."
Bo Saixi's eyes were filled with tenderness.
Su Bai lowered his head.
This special feeling made Bo Saixi fall into it again.
The entire room began to emit a pink aura.
...
While Su Bai was teasing Bo Saixi, Tang San and his companions had regrouped. The three exchanged glances, seeing the unwillingness in each other's eyes.
Previously, they had scattered in fear of Su Bai's pursuit. After a couple of days, realizing Su Bai wasn't chasing them, they dared to reconnect.
"Damn it, that Su Bai managed to reach Pearl Island so quickly."
Tang San said, frustrated.
Dai Mubai was worried, "If Su Bai stays near Pearl Island, we won't be able to complete our divine trial."
Oscar sighed, "Should we ask the God of Original Sin for a different target?"
"No," Tang San shook his head at Oscar's suggestion. "If we can't even kill Purple Pearl, what will the God of Original Sin think of us?"
"He'll think we're useless..." Dai Mubai said self-deprecatingly.
"But it's not that we can't defeat Purple Pearl," Oscar said, looking like he was about to cry. "It's that she has Su Bai, that monster, protecting her!"
"That protective shield she has," Tang San smiled bitterly, "It's the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud..."
"Hiss..."
Oscar and Dai Mubai gasped, "Does that mean, even if Su Bai isn't there, we can't harm Purple Pearl at all?"
"Not necessarily," Tang San said. "The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud consumes Purple Pearl's soul power."
"As long as we're strong enough, we can break it. It just takes time."
"But we're back to square one," Dai Mubai said bitterly. "How can we break the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and kill Purple Pearl before Su Bai arrives?"
"It's impossible," Oscar shook his head vigorously. "If we could break the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud instantly, we wouldn't have been chased around by Su Bai."
"We couldn't even make Su Bai use his martial soul true body..." Tang San's confidence waned as he spoke. "Su Bai didn't even exert himself, and we were already out of cards."
"Let's summon the God of Original Sin," Oscar sighed. "We won't pass the divine trial on our own."
"But...I don't want to accept this." Tang San clenched his fists, his face full of reluctance. "We were so close. If I had struck earlier, instead of talking, maybe we would have succeeded."
"I know you wanted to take advantage of Purple Pearl's moment of surprise to kill her, but now that we failed, she'll be on guard everywhere."
Dai Mubai analyzed, "We have no chance."
His words plunged all three into silence.
Yes, with Su Bai there, they had no chance.
"Summon the God of Original Sin."
Tang San conceded.
At this point, holding onto false pride would only widen the gap between him and Su Bai.
The three of them took their positions in a triangle and formed hand seals.
A black mist emerged from their foreheads, converging in the sky above them to form a massive shadow.
A thick, dark power pressed down, making the surrounding air seem to wilt.
"Hmm? Why have you summoned me? Have you completed the divine trial?"
