CHAPTER 188: CHAPTER 184: INDESTRUCTIBLE GOLDEN BODY, NETHER BONE FIRE, AND MAGICAL DUEL WITH THE FAIRY!

[Deceit Beast]: Bone Demon

[Rank]: High-tier Servant

[Level]: 4

[Attribute]: Undead

[Weakness]: Lightning

[Skills]: Soul Devourer, White Bone Armor

[Special Skill]: Nether Bone Fire

[Status]: Social Anxiety

[Evolution Points]: 7,220

Two skills and one special skill—not bad.

Chu Yi felt the change in his white bones. His essence and energy surged, brimming with vitality. Even when sparring in cultivation with the Moon Princess, he felt he could fight all day and night, working relentlessly.

He squinted his eyes and first examined the skill section.

[Soul Devourer]: Devour the essence of Souls to refine bones. Once completely refined, it automatically advances to [Golden Body], becoming Vajra Indestructible and immune to all diseases.

An evolvable skill. It can be paired with the Soul-Calling Banner to refine Souls and temper the entire skeleton.

Chu Yi was very satisfied and eagerly anticipated the transformation of his white bones into a Golden Body upon complete refinement.

[White Bone Armor]: Assemble bones and master the art of morphing white bones.

Instinctively, Chu Yi stretched out his hand.

A patch of void shattered, and a large white bone hand, as thick as a carriage, flew out.

With a thought, these white bones transformed into a Skeletal Knight riding an Undead Warhorse, then into a two-winged Bone Dragon tens of feet tall, shifting into forms of cattle, sheep, and horses at his whim.

In the next moment, these bones surged into Chu Yi’s body, coalescing into a White Frost Bone Armor with incredible Defense Power.

Very good. I’m just not fully skilled with it yet since I only just acquired it. Chu Yi rejoiced.

Compared to the three major Deceit Beasts, this skill wasn’t overwhelmingly powerful, but its versatility and defensive capabilities made it top-grade among possession-type Pet Beasts.

[Nether Bone Fire]: Consumes a bit of Soul to conjure a flame that burns corpses and destroys Souls, possessing immense power.

This is a special skill, but it’s more like a Divine Power of the Bone Demon. Chu Yi noted inwardly. Its destructive power will likely exceed my expectations. After all, a Deceit Beast is not a Pet Beast. Judging from this fragmented description of its rank, it seems more like a fundamental rule.

After tallying his gains, Chu Yi summoned the Soul-Calling Banner again. He used the Soul Capturing Spell several times, causing Shen Ling, far away, to twitch as his Soul was nearly captured.

Afterward, he gathered the gray mist. Bika, who had been rolling on the Fire Floss Grass, saw that his master had finished his business and ran over.

However, upon seeing the pockmarked grass, Bika tilted his head. Without much thought, he rolled on the ground, exposing his fluffy white belly for Chu Yi to pet.

"Have you played enough? We should get going," Chu Yi said, feeding Bika a Spirit Core. He smiled, petted Bika’s head, then took out a Mithril Key and opened a manifesting door.

Though this place is nice, it’s still a work in progress. Once the novelty wears off, there’s not much to see. Bika, however, can come here often. The customized ecological environment is quite beneficial for a King’s Cub.

"He still doesn’t know your identity, right?" The pure-looking Enchanting Demon licked her lips, exuding an aura of innocent allure as she looked at the golden-haired loli and smiled.

"What’s it to you?" Lias retorted coldly.

She had heard about this Succubus Princess’s deeds and was somewhat apprehensive. Raised in the Enchanting Demon Royal Court, this princess indulged in torture; her hands, stained with countless blood, earned her the name Bloody Princess. Every night, in her private torture chamber, she would inflict all kinds of tortures on "prisoners," making them into exquisite collectibles and turning them into Undead servants. But why was the ever-proud Succubus Princess eyeing Chu Yi?

Lias was on full alert. "Give up," she said coldly. "Chu Yi is under my protection."

"Is that so?" Chen Xi blinked her beautiful eyes curiously, tilted her head, and said thoughtfully, "But it seems you’ve got it wrong. I wouldn’t make Senior into a collectible. On the contrary, I want to become Senior’s collectible. We could call it ’Lifetime Love.’ Don’t you think that sounds nice?"

"You..." This brazen confession was a direct, overwhelming challenge.

As Chu Yi’s official girlfriend, Lias felt an odd pang, her mind conjuring the common game trope where the new girl effortlessly crushes the childhood friend.

"Senior Lias, you can’t stop him from choosing someone better than you, can you?" Chen Xi added, having long since considered Chu Yi her prize, her lifelong partner. How could she allow another girl to lay a finger on him?

And that wasn’t even considering her financial offensive. As a pure-blooded Succubus Princess, her arsenal included a series of Magic Potions for love, hypnosis, and corruption, among other methods. Lias, merely the daughter of a Blood Race Count, was hardly a match for her. However, the bond of more than ten years of childhood friendship was not to be underestimated.

"But he confessed to me this morning! We’re already together! Your interference makes you a third party! It’s despicable!" Lias puffed her cheeks, fighting back.

Chen Xi covered her mouth, unable to suppress a laugh. This Count’s daughter has probably spent too much time in human society, to actually accuse an Enchanting Demon.

She pursed her lips and chuckled softly. "In that case, how about we make a bet?"

"Let’s both send Senior Chu Yi a message and see who he chooses. The one not chosen agrees not to interfere anymore."

Upon hearing this, Lias was momentarily stunned and slightly surprised. This wager is heavily in my favor!

"Alright." To drive away this Enchanting Demon who was eyeing her boyfriend, Lias agreed to the bet without hesitation.

"Huh?" Chu Yi raised his Star Bracelet, looking at the message the golden-haired loli had sent via the WeApricot app.

[Miss Lias]: Chu Yi, come to this location. As agreed, we’re meeting my father tonight; he will approve of us being together.

Chu Yi was about to reply when his junior, Chen Xi, also sent a message.

[Wealthy Lady]: Senior, my socks are dirty. Can you help me clean them? (pitiful.jpg)

The next line contained a screenshot. Under a delicate gauze skirt, a pair of pale, bootless Jade Feet were inadvertently stained with fallen ice cream. Adorning them were not only black chocolate bits but also a fresh red milk strawberry, looking alluringly pink and white.

That ice cream just fell... such a waste.

Chu Yi’s throat bobbed; he swallowed hard but ultimately typed out his refusal to this tempting invitation.

[Little Fox]: Ahem, I have something to do. Definitely next time.

He clicked send, and the other side replied instantly.

[Wealthy Lady]: But it’s crowded here, and I can’t change socks. Senior, could you please help me? You’re the one I trust the most! (pitiful.jpg)

[Little Fox]: Um... I really have something to do.

[Wealthy Lady]: Fifty thousand Federation Coins! I beg you, Senior! If someone finds out... *sob*... it would be so embarrassing...

[Little Fox]: Just wait a bit for me. Uh, hold on.

[Wealthy Lady]: Forget the socks. If Senior likes them, they’re yours.

Ah, this... Not only is there money, but also... No, this is a trap.

Chu Yi forced himself to cool down, forcefully ejecting the lustful thoughts that had momentarily seized his brain, and began to ponder.

The situation... it can’t be as bad as Chen Xi claims. She’s deliberately trying to lure me.

Thinking of this, Chu Yi felt slightly helpless. Being pursued by girls wasn’t new to him, but he had never encountered anyone as bold as Chen Xi.

Sigh. It’s tough being such an outstanding guy. I really need to protect myself when I’m out and about.
