CHAPTER 214: CHAPTER 125 UH-HUH! I’M EASY TO TAKE CARE OF! PLEASE CHERISH ME, MY LORD!_1

Jiu Li curled up in the corner of the bed, her hands tightly clutching the thin blanket wrapped around her.

She had a habit of sleeping naked since childhood, and by late night, she would be completely bare.

Now, apart from the thin blanket, her sensual body was otherwise unclad.

"You... How did you get in here? I clearly set up a barrier outside..."

Jiu Li’s voice was soft, daring not even a hint of a question, terrified that the dense, unyielding man before her would punch her if she displeased him.

"Barrier? I wouldn’t know about that."

"Perhaps your Spiritual Power Intensity is just too pathetic, so the barrier was ineffective against me."

"But then again, shouldn’t you be a little happier when a friend comes from afar?"

As he spoke, Su Yan flipped the light switch in the bamboo building, and the sudden brightness instantly illuminated Jiu Li’s entire boudoir.

Su Yan glanced around the boudoir. How should I put it? It definitely had a young girl’s touch.

Pink wall decals, pink tables and chairs, various pink clothes, and all sorts of bags.

Everything in sight was essentially pink. The only thing he wasn’t sure about was whether the fox-eared girl huddled in the corner was also pink through and through.

"I must say, Fox Demon, your boudoir looks quite girlish, a completely different style from the clothes you hang outside."

"So, those sexy clothes outside are your tools of the trade, aren’t they?"

Su Yan regarded Jiu Li, who was huddled in the corner, a gentle-sounding smile on his face.

But no matter how gentle his tone, any words from his mouth sounded bone-chillingly cold to Jiu Li.

After all, she had been pummeled by his fists a total of four times, leaving an indelible scar on her heart.

"My lord, I beg you. I’ll give you one tail. Please let me go, alright?"

"After tonight, I’ll leave Luo City, and from then on, we’ll go our separate ways and not interfere with each other."

Hearing Jiu Li’s words, Su Yan chuckled. "Hah, go our separate ways and not interfere? You wish."

"When I was weak, you were like a ravenous wolf, trying to suck my Essence."

"Now that you can’t beat me, you want us to go our separate ways? There’s no such easy way out."

With that, Su Yan used his spiritual power to telekinetically pull Jiu Li, still curled up in the bed’s corner, towards him.

Jiu Li, caught off guard, was pulled over completely, body and spirit.

"You... You’ve evolved to Legendary Level?"

Jiu Li’s pretty face was etched with shock; she found what had just happened utterly unbelievable.

The fact that he could move her—all 48 kg of her—through the air with such a relaxed and cheerful expression meant his Spiritual Power Intensity had to be at least within the Legendary Level Category.

Only a few months had passed, and this dense, unyielding man before her had seen his Creature Level evolve from below Advanced all the way to Legendary Level.

What kind of monster is this?How could he evolve so quickly?

The more Jiu Li thought, the more terrified she became. She completely abandoned any thought of struggling, surrendering to Su Yan’s mercy.

Looking at the astonished Jiu Li before him, Su Yan smiled. "Think I’m a genius? Actually, I think so too."

Hmph, so arrogant... Jiu Li sneered inwardly, then said softly, "My lord, just tell me directly. What will it take for you to let Jiu Li go?"

Su Yan heard her and smiled without speaking, merely holding up one finger before Jiu Li’s eyes.

Jiu Li asked tentatively, "My lord, do you mean one tail is enough?"

Jiu Li had barely finished speaking when Su Yan wagged his finger. "My holding up one finger means I won’t let you go, no matter what."

"Why? What good would that do you? Don’t you just want tails?"

Jiu Li said, her face a mask of confusion, completely failing to understand Su Yan’s words.

She continued, "If you’re willing to let Jiu Li go tonight, and swear you won’t go back on your word, then Jiu Li can give you two of her remaining four tails!"

"My lord, will that do? Please say something."

Jiu Li gazed at Su Yan with her captivatingly beautiful eyes, awaiting his answer.

Su Yan used that same finger to lift Jiu Li’s pale chin, rejecting her flatly. "No."

"Then what do you want!"

Jiu Li was seething internally but dared not voice her anger, bottling it up.

Seeing Jiu Li’s timid display of indignation, Su Yan couldn’t help but laugh.

Then he said unhurriedly, "I don’t want much. I just want to try... sustainable development."

Hearing Su Yan say this, Jiu Li felt a sense of foreboding.

She immediately asked, "What do you mean by that? Are you planning to keep me as a pet?"

Su Yan snapped his fingers and grinned at Jiu Li. "Correct. Very clever."

"You dare keep a Fox Demon? Aren’t you afraid I’ll backstab you?" Jiu Li stared at Su Yan with her bright, beautiful eyes, her tone calm.

"Backstab? I’m not worried. I’m quite adept at taming pets," Su Yan said confidently, without a trace of concern about potential risks.

"You’re that confident? You should know, Jiu Li isn’t like some cat or dog that will be content to be kept by the Human race just for a few treats."

Jiu Li began to employ rhetoric, attempting to explain to Su Yan the various difficulties of keeping a fox.
