Kui Zi had never slept in such a comfortable bed; it was truly incredibly comfortable.
However, while it was comfortable, it wasn't to the point of being numbing. She sensed Xu Lang getting off the bed and leaving, but she didn't open her eyes, continuing to pretend to be asleep.
As a result of this pretense, she genuinely fell asleep, until a violent feeling of suffocation woke her up.
The stay duration had ended!
She quickly got up, noticed there were only a few people left on the bed, and hurriedly straightened her clothes.
During this process, Han Zhixiu also woke up and stepped out of the room ahead of her.
Kui Zi pursed her lips and observed her surroundings. Seeing that no one else was looking this way, she imdiately beca hesitant, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and left the dorm directly.
...
Outside in the corridor, Xu Lang was facing the rising sun, practicing his breathing, enveloped in a brilliant, golden-rimd halo of light.
The Golden Core Technique had imparted him with so cultivation knowledge. By studying it more, he might even develop an original skill. He liked to ponder over it in his spare ti.
Han Zhixiu watched from the side, not disturbing him, but was very curious.
Xu Lang's essence, energy, and spirit seed to be pulsating, yet it didn't carry the explosive feeling of Blood Qi power. Instead, it gave off a sense of nurturing life.
"You didn't install that little thing under the bed, did you?" Xu Lang concluded his practice, turned to look at Kui Zi, and asked with a half-smile.
Kui Zi's expression changed drastically.
At this point, pretending was pointless. The other party even knew where she had intended to place the surveillance cara!
She took a deep breath and asked, "How did you know?"
"Do you think a Platinum dorm is just about looking luxurious on the outside?" Xu Lang chuckled lightly, appearing completely in control.
Kui Zi imdiately understood.
Xu Lang was not ordinary, so his dorm naturally wouldn't be simple either!
She had previously seen Cao Yaxuan and the others walking the Evil Furry Grain and mistakenly thought it was just a pet. The reality was probably not that simple.
Listening to their conversation, Han Zhixiu seed thoughtful.
Kui Zi wanted to do sothing sneaky, but Xu Lang had actually known about it all along, thanks to the dorm's capabilities.
Both won had fallen into a verbal trap, attributing Xu Lang's detection thods to the dorm's power.
This way, when they were outside the dorm, they would let their guard down.
"I won't do this again in the future," Kui Zi said after a brief silence.
"It doesn't matter," Xu Lang shook his head.
He, Xu Lang, wasn't a petty person. If there was a real grievance, he would settle it on the spot.
Since he hadn't settled with Kui Zi, it ant he truly didn't mind.
After all, if it were him, he probably wouldn't be able to resist either. It's human nature.
"Thank you," Kui Zi said and left.
Xu Lang watched her retreating figure, montarily lost in thought.
The new outfit Kui Zi was wearing was sothing he had fused. It was a very handso military-style uniform with black boots and a trench coat, quite pleasing to the eye.
"Aren't you really going to teach her a lesson? Otherwise, she might try again next ti," Han Zhixiu looked at Xu Lang and said quietly.
"Everyone has a different personality. She's not the type to hide in the gutter. Beating or scolding her would only have side effects. Having her feel a little guilty is actually better," Xu Lang said with a smile.
After his warning, as long as Kui Zi wasn't a fool, she wouldn't think about rebelling again.
And if she really were that kind of fool, then keeping her around wouldn't be necessary anyway.
Sotis, fools can cause more damage than villains.
Han Zhixiu brushed back her ear-length short hair, looked at Xu Lang, and asked, "Do you want to go monster hunting with ?"
"You'd better not go out much lately. Rakshasa Country is likely planning sothing big," Xu Lang said seriously.
Han Zhixiu didn't ask Xu Lang what his basis for this judgnt was. She simply nodded straightforwardly, "Okay."
A flicker of appreciation passed through Xu Lang's eyes. Han Zhixiu's personality of not asking too many questions and not being clingy was truly comforting.
She wasn't the type to play along with flattery, but she would absolutely carry out tasks with unwavering determination.
"By the way, Xu Lang, would you like to co see my dorm?" Han Zhixiu invited.
"Sure."
Since he was free anyway, visiting was fine.
...
Dorm 163.
This was a standard combat dorm, with three training rooms alone.
"Sister Zhixiu, you're ba..."
As Xu Lang and Han Zhixiu entered the room, a boy with a mushroom haircut ca over. When he saw Xu Lang, his face stiffened, and a flash of shock appeared in his eyes behind his round glasses.
"This is my tenant, an old partner of mine from the Grandmaster Building. His na is Shen Huan. After I leave, he'll be the acting dorm owner," Han Zhixiu introduced.
"Acting dorm owner?" Xu Lang found it strange.
Han Zhixiu explained, "Yes. As you know, all players on the ninth floor are under house arrest by Pandora. I made so deals with her to be able to co and go freely."
"You're all a bit afraid of her," Xu Lang mused.
"But more afraid of you, so I chose you," Han Zhixiu said plainly. "However, Pandora should not be underestimated. A level ten dorm is not that simple. Many of its abilities are extrely abnormal."
This, Xu Lang certainly knew.
A common dorm at most has the dorm ga's rule power as a passive enhancent, while a level ten dorm can actively wield this rule power.
One is a thatched hut, the other is a luxury renovation. The difference is huge.
"Sister Zhixiu, have you decided to leave with Brother Xu Lang?" Shen Huan took a deep breath and looked at Han Zhixiu urgently.
Last night, when Han Zhixiu went out, he waited for a very, very long ti.
When Han Zhixiu returned, she only said, "Dorm 163 will belong to you from now on," and didn't say anything more.
Then, while his mind was in turmoil, Han Zhixiu went out again.
He didn't sleep all night, waiting for a result.
"Yes. If you have trouble in the future, you can co find . Live well," Han Zhixiu replied.
"Ah!!!" Shen Huan imdiately broke down, shouting, "How can it be like this? We promised to help each other. Didn't you treat like a younger brother? Are you going to leave your brother?"
Han Zhixiu crossed her arms, her impressive chest pressed inward, her expression cold and stern. "Because you're weak."
"Huh?" Shen Huan's eyes welled up with tears.
"Because you're weak. Won only like strong n," Han Zhixiu uttered a brutally cruel sentence that pierced Shen Huan's heart while also tearing apart the veil he had used to hide his affection.
Xu Lang glanced sideways.
This woman, he was appreciating her more and more.
Also, why did this feel like playing the role of the 'other man'?
"Let's go," Han Zhixiu tugged at Xu Lang's arm, leading him towards the training room.
Shen Huan was crying too loudly. Xu Lang was just thinking about whether to give him a little "shock from the demonic eye" when he was pulled away by Han Zhixiu.
[Nightmare Eye - Han Zhixiu: He's crying so loudly. Won't Xu Lang scold him for this?]
What was this called? Ruthlessness that surpasses affection?
Simps are a troubleso breed, especially the ones who consider themselves deeply devoted. Han Zhixiu didn't want to bring trouble to Dorm 200, so she brought Xu Lang over to cut things off in advance.
Han Zhixiu's behavior of not keeping anyone on the hook was quite comndable. Of course, it might also be that Shen Huan didn't even qualify to be kept on the hook.
Han Zhixiu's Charm had quietly increased by 2 points. Combined with the outfit Xu Lang gave her, her Charm was now 178 points.
"No, no, no, this isn't real. My Sister Zhixiu, my Sister Zhixiu..." After Xu Lang and Han Zhixiu left, Shen Huan sat alone in the living room, clutching his head with both hands.
Once, he was attracted by Han Zhixiu's strength and coldness. Now, he was also wounded by that coldness.
"It's all my fault, all my fault. I'm not strong enough!"
"And it's that man's fault. He stole Sister Zhixiu!"
"I'm going to go pioneering. I'm going to get stronger and take Sister Zhixiu back!"
Both Xu Lang and Han Zhixiu had underestimated the "power" of a deeply devoted simp. Shen Huan actually left the dorm and chose to enter the Blood Mist alone during ga ti.
The Blood Mist during ga ti was extrely dangerous. The dorm building's deterrence against monsters was sowhat reduced, and many monsters lurked at the edges of the Blood Mist. However, Shen Huan, now driven by hot-blooded passion, could no longer care about these things.
