Volume 2, Chapter 4 – A Small Test?

“Well then, since Mother has said so, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After hearing Yumo’s firm words, Li Yu, knowing it was useless to say more, reverted back to her usual well-behaved self, her small face filled with a satisfied smile. Subsequently, the grey-haired girl grabbed Li Mo’s tail and dragged her out of the bathroom before silently closing the wooden door.

However, the moment the door shut, the smile on Li Yu’s face froze instantly. In the next breath, the smile faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, replaced by a cold and murderous expression.

Li Yu couldn’t help but raise her hand to bite her thumb, a signature habit of the little girl when she was frustrated to the extreme.

‘Damn it…’

While it was worth celebrating that her mother had agreed to help her bathe, Li Yu couldn’t bring herself to be happy when she thought about how her mother might have only agreed just to protect that bullshit Chosen Maiden.

‘Seriously, she actually brought that woman back?!’

Li Yu grumbled unhappily in her heart. If her mother had left the female lead inside Garros Fortress, Li Yu could have used the Blackrose Family to cause some trouble while she was unconscious! Of course, she wouldn’t have killed her directly, but rather planted some bombs inside her body to secretly destroy her cultivation ability…

But to her surprise, her mother actually brought that woman back to the Deepwinter Forest?! And she was personally looking after her, which made things difficult…

Li Yu fell into deep thought.

“Awoo~~”

Just then, a low whimper reached Li Yu’s ears, and at the same time, she felt a force tugging at her dress.

“Sister! Stop it, this is the dress Mother chose for me!!” Li Yu lowered her head and looked at the little white wolf biting the hem of her skirt, unable to resist scolding her in a low voice.

“Awoo?” Shouted at by her younger sister, the little white wolf suddenly trembled and unconsciously let go of the skirt.

Seizing the opportunity, Li Yu hurriedly rescued her dress from Li Mo’s mouth! Seeing that the dress wasn’t badly damaged, Li Yu breathed a small sigh of relief, then helplessly looked at her elder sister.

“What is it, Sister?”

“Awoo, awoo!! Awoooo! Awoo!”

“Uh, right now?!”

“Awoooo!”

“But, right now I—”

“Awoo awoo!!”

“Sigh, fine, I really can’t do anything with you.”

“Meow~”

“…”

Watching the little white wolf wagging its tail incessantly, Li Yu helplessly massaged her forehead. Although Li Mo had now completely “Husky-fied”, as her sister, Li Yu could somehow accurately understand her words for some mysterious reason. It was exactly because of this that Yumo felt safe leaving Li Mo in Li Yu’s care.

Well, it wasn’t like there was anyone else who could look after her anyway…

Li Yu was very reluctant about her sister’s request, but to soothe her, the grey-haired girl could only agree. “Honestly, wanting to take a bath now, have you been influenced by Mother? Fine, fine, I’ll take you, it just so happens you’re dirty enough anyway…” Li Yu said with feigned disgust.

Then, Li Yu opened her arms to the little white wolf, and Li Mo excitedly leaped into Li Yu’s embrace.

Quietly holding her sister, Li Yu looked thoughtfully behind her toward the bathroom where Yumo was. Then, the little girl glanced meaningfully at the little white wolf in her arms, her emerald eyes narrowing slightly.

The female lead being here was undoubtedly a major issue, yet her sister was currently completely useless. Well, that wasn’t right; even in her normal state, she wouldn’t be able to help, or rather, she would only make things worse…

‘I need to discuss this with someone else…’ Thinking of this, Li Yu looked thoughtfully toward the large lake in the middle of the Deepwinter Forest. Speaking of which, has that guy woken up yet??

While Li Yu was lost in thought, the little white wolf’s urging voice rang in her ear again, snapping the grey-haired girl back to reality.

“Meowooo!!”

“…”

‘Sister, honestly, I can’t tell anymore if you’re a wolf, a dog, or a cat…’ Li Yu couldn’t help but roll her eyes at her sister and complained inwardly.

“Fine, I’ll take you to wash now, just don’t lick me randomly—aaaaahhh!! Seriously, you stinky sister!!”

Looking at her chest, which had been licked wet and slippery, and feeling her small face covered in strange liquid, Li Yu sighed helplessly again. Fine, she might as well wash up herself later…

Having decided this, Li Yu carried the little white wolf to the location of another bathroom. At the same time, a trace of annoyance surfaced in Li Yu’s heart again, and she “friendly” cursed Saibok, who was ten thousand miles away.

‘Saibok, you bastard, why did you have to build three bathrooms! Wouldn’t it have been better to just build one big one?! That way, we could have justifiably dragged Mother in to bathe together…’

While complaining wildly in her heart, Li Yu took off her little dress and walked into the bathroom naked, holding the little white wolf.

On the other side, after Li Yu left with Li Mo, Yumo resumed her task, which was to wash the female lead’s body.

Although she inevitably felt a bit flushed at first, after a moment, Yumo’s emotions stabilized. She was starting to get used to it~

After washing Mengxi’s beautiful long silver hair, Yumo took out a specially made soft towel and carefully helped wipe Mengxi’s body. From the tight and slender swan-like neck to the sexy and beautiful collarbones, to the inviting fragrant shoulders, to the soft jade arms like lotus roots, then to the indescribable parts in the middle, and finally to the graceful, rounded long jade legs and the delicate, smooth little feet that made one want to lick them…

The towel in Yumo’s hand was like a tireless explorer, uncovering every inch of the secrets on Mengxi’s delicate and beautiful body. The exploration continued again and again, and gradually, the clear warm water became murky with blood and dirt.

After changing the water twice more, the silver-haired girl’s body finally returned to a state as bright as new and flawless as white jade. Yumo’s work could be considered finished for now.

After finishing the cleaning task, if before Yumo and Mengxi were even, then now, Yumo had truly won big~

“Alright, it’s finally settled.” Looking at the stunningly beautiful and delicate silver-haired girl in the tub, Yumo couldn’t help but reveal a smile of relief.

It really was an ordeal that was also a treat, Miss Yumo said to herself.

At the same time, a hint of envy sprouted in Miss Yumo’s heart. This envy was directed toward the Chosen Son, whom she had never met. Sigh, to be able to find a wife in the future who is so gentle, kind, beautiful, and has a figure so good it gives one a nosebleed—who knows how many lifetimes of merit he must have accumulated?

‘Hah, I’m a little jealous~’ Yumo lamented.

However, as she leaned against the edge of the tub looking at Mengxi’s exquisite face, Yumo frowned slightly. Speaking of which, there was something she was quite curious about. When the female lead was fighting that person from the Divine Punishment Holy Church earlier, the atmosphere around her seemed a bit strange?

She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt like she had sensed a trace of Shadow Essence from Mengxi at that time? The kind of power that belonged to Abyssal Demons?!

Although Yumo hadn’t sensed any suspicious power from Mengxi from the start of the bath until now, she still harbored certain doubts. Could it be my mistake? She is the future Saintess?! How could she possibly have Shadow Essence?!

Well, maybe I should test it? Just to be safe.

Thinking of this, Yumo’s crimson eyes narrowed slightly, and she reached out her slender, onion-like finger toward Mengxi’s forehead. At the same time, a faint trace of red Shadow Essence slowly trickled from Yumo’s fingertip and drifted toward Mengxi’s brow.

Then, in the next instant, under Yumo’s slightly stunned gaze, that trace of red Shadow Essence was immediately absorbed by Mengxi!

Yumo: Eh??

This… what is going on?
