Outside the door, the night wind swirled.
Wrapped in a nightgown, Xiao Qingli pressed her ear tightly against the door. After waiting for a full hour and confirming there was absolutely no sound inside, she finally breathed a quiet sigh of relief. A smile crept onto her lips, and she clenched her small fists to cheer herself on.
Great!
Big brother is asleep!
This way, she could take advantage of his slumber to sneak into his bed and sleep while hugging him!
As long as she woke up early in the morning and snuck back to her own room, she could pretend nothing had ever happened.
That was Xiao Qingli's plan.
Even if big brother discovered her in the morning, it wouldn't matter. The deed would already be done, and he definitely wouldn't have the heart to blame her. She might even be able to push her luck and monopolize his bed from then on!
But the prerequisite for all of this lay in tonight's night raid.
The more Xiao Qingli thought about it, the more wonderful it seemed. She was practically drooling.
She quickly wiped her mouth with her hand and muttered a scolding to herself, Qingli, oh Qingli, you useless thing. Acting like you've never seen a man before. How embarrassing.
She gathered her composure and took a deep breath.
Then, she tiptoed to push the door open, stealthily poking her little head through the crack to peek inside.
The room was pitch black; nothing could be seen clearly.
He should be asleep.
Hehe, big brother is mine~
Xiao Qingli rubbed her hands together, the corners of her mouth curling up as she closed the door with a hint of excitement.
However, just as she walked up to the bed and looked up.
She realized Ye Shu was leaning against the headboard, staring straight at her in an incredibly bizarre posture.
Don't move, or I'll kill you...
Medusa was hiding under the blanket at Ye Shu's chest, her two legs straddling his waist and wrapping around him. Curled up into a tiny ball, she made her threat in a childish voice.
Her voice trembled slightly.
Because this posture was simply too ambiguous, being pressed against each other completely naked and all... it still made her feel rather ashamed.
Ye Shu's expression was extremely serious, but in his heart, he was screaming.
Good job!
Good job, Xiao Qingli!
B-Big brother, you're not asleep yet?
Caught red-handed, Xiao Qingli looked up and revealed an extremely awkward smile, looking just like a student who tried to peek at the desk behind them during an exam, only to be caught by the teacher.
Yeah...
Ye Shu gave a highly uncomfortable hum.
It wasn't that he didn't want to speak, but rather that there was a sticky, soft, and warm little girl pressed naked against his chest, threatening him with her venomous fangs.
If you dare reveal my presence...
Medusa lifted her head slightly from under the covers, revealing her golden slit pupils, and made a hissing gesture.
I'll kill this little brat.
I mean what I say.
Ye Shu didn't provoke her.
Because Medusa was the same kind of person as he was, he knew exactly what she was thinking.
His brain worked at lightning speed, trying to figure out a way out of this situation.
Although the jade pendant was powerful, it was something he had just acquired. Whether it could slay a Void Return realm Medusa was still an unknown. If she still had the strength to fight, Xiao Qingli would inevitably be caught in the crossfire.
For now, his only option was to placate her.
My Queen, Ye Shu lowered his voice. If you kill me, do you think you can walk out of here alive?
Why couldn't I?
Medusa sneered. Even if my evolution is incomplete right now, I am still a figure of the Void Return realm. If I want to leave, even a peak Soul Formation expert couldn't stop me.
They clashed in secret.
Meanwhile, Xiao Qingli stood by the bed, somewhat at a loss. Seeing Ye Shu stay silent for a long time, she thought he was angry and asked timidly:
Big brother, are you okay?
I'm fine... With a venomous girl hanging onto his chest, Ye Shu managed to squeeze out a smile: Is there something you need from me so late at night?
Asked this question, Xiao Qingli blushed.
She had originally wanted to sneak into his bed, but she was caught red-handed. It was too embarrassing.
But things had already come to this, and she was already here.
She decided to just go for broke, stiffening her neck as she said: Qingli... Qingli can't sleep alone, so... so I want to sleep with you, big brother.
Saying this, she looked at Ye Shu with a face full of hope.
Pervert.
Medusa cursed in a low voice from under the covers. To think a disgusting fellow like you wouldn't even spare a child. This Queen really didn't misjudge you.
Tell her to get lost, or don't blame me for not holding back.
She couldn't possibly let this little brat stay here, or wouldn't she be exposed?
Seeing Ye Shu delay in speaking, she threatened in a low voice: You don't think that with this Queen's strength, it would be difficult to kill both of you at the same time, do you?
Hearing this, Ye Shu's pupils trembled.
He himself wasn't afraid of Medusa, but he truly couldn't guarantee Qingli's safety.
So he took a deep breath and looked at Qingli.
You are a big girl now. You need to learn to sleep by yourself, otherwise people will laugh at you if word gets out.
B-But I want to sleep with big brother... Qingli twisted her fingers, speaking with great grievance.
Her pitiful appearance was enough to break anyone's heart.
But a life-threatening danger was right in front of them. To protect Xiao Qingli's safety, Ye Shu had to harden his heart.
He kept a straight face, his tone cold and hard.
I said go back to sleep, do you not understand?
B-Big brother?
Xiao Qingli looked up, completely stunned for a moment.
In all this time, this was the first time she had heard her big brother speak to her in such a tone. She thought it was her imagination, but Ye Shu's serious expression told her otherwise.
This was real, he wasn't joking.
Okay...
Xiao Qingli lowered her head listlessly, her eyes dimming. Like a little kitten drenched in the rain, she walked out the door step by step.
Even as she walked out the door, there was not a single word to make her stay.
And the moment the door was closed.
Medusa kicked her legs, about to leave this place that brought her endless shame and regain dominance over Ye Shu.
But someone was faster than her.
In the very instant Xiao Qingli closed the door, Ye Shu fiercely grabbed Medusa's wrists, flipped her over, and pinned her beneath him, his eyes as fierce as a wolf's.
He lowered his voice, his threatening intent completely undisguised.
Medusa... do you want to die?

Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
