"Two from Yunkui Summit, I look forward to the chance to cooperate!"
The mission of Hollow Special Operations Section 6 had already been completed, and they were preparing to return to the HAND headquarters located in Throne Quarter.
By the way, both Waifei Peninsula and the mountain gate of Yunkui Summit were within Throne Quarter, not very far from HAND headquarters.
"I think it won't be too far."
"Very glad to meet you!"
Arden and Ju Fufu bid farewell to the members of Hollow Special Operations Section 6.
"Brother Lin, will we really meet again so soon?"
Watching Yanagi and Miyabi leave, Ju Fufu asked curiously.
"We will!"
Arden's tone was extremely firm. "I just did a divination. We have quite a bit of karmic affinity with Hollow Special Operations Section 6, so we should meet again very soon."
After cultivating with Yixuan for some time, Arden's combat ability hadn't improved much, but his skills in divination and fortune-telling had increased dramatically.
"Oh."
…..
After resting for a bit longer, when Arden and Ju Fufu were about to leave the HIA Club, Master Yixuan was already waiting at the entrance.
"Please help me take a look at my recent fortune!"
"Hey! Wait, how can you cut in line like that?"
"….."
As expected, Yixuan was quickly surrounded by people who had come seeking divination and answers.
"Master, it's time to go!"
For situations like this, Arden and Ju Fufu were already used to it and even had a mature contingency plan.
"Fierce tiger crossing the street! Make way, make way!"
Ju Fufu forcefully carved out a path with brute strength. Then Arden took out three talismans that weakened one's sense of presence and slapped one onto each of their foreheads. After that, he grabbed Ju Fufu with one hand and Yixuan with the other, and the three of them immediately made a break for it.
…..
They arrived at a café and found a quiet, secluded seat on the second-floor terrace.
Huff…
Ju Fufu lifted her bangs, peeled off the talisman, and let out a breath.
"You've worked hard."
Yixuan was a bit helpless about it. There was no helping it—she was too famous, and her recognizability was extremely high.
"Master is really popular."
Arden couldn't help but sigh, then asked, "Master, have you met that Void Hunter, Hoshimi Miyabi?"
"Mhm."
Yixuan nodded slightly.
The previous test had been completed together with Hoshimi Miyabi.
"Master, she didn't do anything to you, right?"
Arden asked with concern, his gaze sweeping over Yixuan. "You have no idea—I almost got snipped by Hoshimi Miyabi just now!"
As he spoke, he even wiped imaginary cold sweat from his forehead.
"Snipped?"
Yixuan didn't quite understand what Arden meant.
"Heehee, Master, you don't know. When Brother Arden and I were watching Hollow Special Operations Section 6 earlier…"
Ju Fufu vividly described what had happened earlier, especially the scene where Arden was mistaken for a lecher by Hoshimi Miyabi and almost became her training material.
Pfft… hahaha!
Yixuan laughed straight from the heart.
She realized that ever since taking Arden and Ju Fufu as disciples, her previously plain daily life had gained a lot more fun—well, whether good or bad.
"Then… what about you, Master?"
After Ju Fufu finished her side of the story, she blinked her curious big eyes and asked about Yixuan's experience. "Did you spar with Hoshimi Miyabi?"
"Master, what kind of person do you think Hoshimi Miyabi is?"
It wasn't just Ju Fufu—Arden was also very interested. After all, it was rare for two Void Hunter–level figures to be together.
"Hmm…"
Yixuan pondered for a moment, as if organizing her words. "She's a very formidable person. Her strength is not inferior to mine. It's just that personality of hers…"
At that point, Yixuan's expression changed slightly.
"The killing intent is a bit too strong."
"Killing intent, huh…"
Hearing this, Arden recalled his own encounter with Hoshimi Miyabi, and his body tensed up again.
"Yeah! The killing intent is seriously heavy!"
Thinking about how she drew her blade without a word the first time they met and wanted to 'remove his assets,' calling her killing intent heavy was already a restrained evaluation.
"Still, fox ears, uniform, katana, that refined expressionless face… she's really beautiful. Especially those black silk legs…"
As Arden's mind wandered and he fantasized about possessing those black silk legs, "Ouch!"
Ju Fufu fiercely twisted the soft flesh at Arden's waist.
"Arden, it seems your cultivation of mental discipline is still lacking."
Not only Ju Fufu—even Yixuan was very dissatisfied with Arden's wild thoughts.
"Fufu, Master! Please spare me."
Arden hurriedly admitted defeat and begged for mercy. "I'm just thinking about it. She's a Void Hunter—if I dared do anything, I'd probably really get snipped!"
Yes, he admitted it—and admitted fault!
But he still wasn't going to change.
…..
The master and her two disciples didn't return directly to Yunkui Summit. Instead, they went to the department store at Lumina Square.
Coming all this way without shopping would be such a waste.
Of course, that applied to Ju Fufu and Yixuan. Arden was only responsible for carrying things.
The women's underwear section.
Arden held up a bra in the smallest size, glanced at it, then turned his head to look at Ju Fufu's figure.
Haaah—!
He shook his head and sighed at the same time.
People often said that girls would develop after being 'unlocked.' Arden believed he had worked very hard as well, but practice proved that this simply didn't apply to Tiger Thiren. After several months, Ju Fufu was still firmly 'nailed flat.'
However, Arden didn't really mind.
Arden wasn't part of the "Oppai is Truth" faction or the "Flat is Justice" faction—he was the "Both is Good" faction that wanted everything.
And Ju Fufu and Yixuan happened to complement each other perfectly, satisfying Arden's various preferences.
It's just… isn't the gap in the middle a bit too big?
"Fufu, Arden, what do you think of this outfit?"
Just as Arden was pondering how to enrich the variety of his harem's bust types, Master Yixuan's slightly hesitant voice came from the side.
Yixuan had custom-ordered everyday clothing here, and today happened to be the day to pick it up.
Sha sha sha…
Before Arden even turned his head to admire it, the sound of stockings rubbing together had already reached his ears, stirring endless wild thoughts.
"!!"
And when the real thing entered Arden's field of vision, his eyes went completely wide.
The first thing he noticed was that 'Nile River,' truly a top-tier scenic line.
Through the hazy surface of the river, he could see the wonders at the riverbed, along with a long, narrow deep groove.
Absolutely marvelous!
"Master, you've got great taste!"
Arden raised a thumbs-up in praise. Restraining the urge to get a nosebleed, he moved to Yixuan's side and back, continuing his appreciation.
The thin gauze embroidery, with patterns resembling the Qingming Bird, carried the unique charm of Yunkui Summit. The hollowed-out design was not only pleasing to the eye but also helped with ventilation—perhaps it could even let out a delightful fragrance?
"Hmm… this seems a bit different from the style I originally asked for."
Being stared at from all angles by Arden's leering gaze, Yixuan felt somewhat uncomfortable all over and decisively ignored him. "Fufu, what do you think? Does it not suit my style? Maybe I should return this outfit…"
"Master looks good in anything!"
Ju Fufu stood between Arden and Yixuan. "Black silk… I'm really jealous."
As a woman, Ju Fufu also wanted to wear new clothes.
Pa!
Arden slapped Ju Fufu's thigh. "From my professional point of view, Fufu, you… should be more suited to white silk."
"Really?!"
Ju Fufu was extremely happy to be praised by Arden.
"Of course. When have I ever lied to you!"
White silk × black silk… slurp!
His gaze darted back and forth between Ju Fufu and Yixuan, and Arden couldn't help but start imagining the future.
In the end, encouraged and affirmed by both Arden Xu and Ju Fufu, Yixuan did not return this slightly bold set of casual wear.
"Forget it. This outfit is quite convenient for movement anyway. I'll keep it."
