Mini World Game Console-Chapter 861 - 862: Sleep Together

Lianjiang Tianlian Academy, the noon bell rang.

"Class dismissed."

Zhao Huo dissipated the "Clothing" Force from his right hand, put down the red brick he had poked a hole in, and said, "The instruction for the 'Clothing' series attack techniques—'Finger Gun,' 'Hand Blade,' and 'Fist Hammer'—is complete. However, since Doctor Ren hasn't returned yet, we still don't have actual combat training, but you can't slack off."

"The first combat training session next month will include a test. You must demonstrate at least one of the techniques—'Finger Gun,' 'Hand Blade,' or 'Fist Hammer'—otherwise, your monthly grade will be lowered. If your Bracelet Points get deducted and you can't afford meals or tissues, don't blame your teacher for not reminding you to review in advance."

"Yes—"

Zhao Huo intended to stride out of the classroom, but a crowd of students gathered around to ask questions.

A female student asked, "Teacher, it's been ten days, and Doctor Ren still hasn't returned? I've been getting acne recently..."

Zhao Huo replied, "Drink more hot water and get more sleep."

A male student asked, "Teacher! Teacher! Do you know when Teacher Dong will be back? I'll die if I can't see Teacher Dong!"

Zhao Huo responded, "Although our school doesn't have a postgraduate system yet, if someone dies in the dorm, the other roommates might get hush money from the school. Your roommates would appreciate your sacrifice."

Ever since the news of Zhao Huo having several wives spread throughout the school, becoming common knowledge, Zhao Huo had completely let himself go. After all, he could no longer maintain the image of a 'serious and upright teacher'—Is one not serious and upright just because he has three wives? That's the limitation of worldly views, isn't it?

However, Zhao Huo rather enjoyed this. During classes, he remained a stern teacher, but afterward, he switched to a more casual chat mode. He no longer minded his tone, talking with students as if they were online buddies. They engaged in light-hearted chats, and he even openly discussed new anime series with them, not even worrying about them seeing the anime girl wallpaper on his phone.

On his way to the cafeteria, a beautiful girl suddenly sprang from the side, almost bumping into Zhao Huo. He agilely grabbed her shoulders, "Be careful when you walk."

"Ah, sorry," the beautiful girl gave him a brilliant smile. "I was just trying to open this bottle of iced black tea and couldn't manage... Teacher Zhao, could you help me with it?"

Zhao Huo blinked, then took the iced black tea and opened it. The beautiful girl immediately looped her arm around his left, saying with a smile, "Thank you~ By the way, can you do me a favor? There's a new dessert stand in the cafeteria, and the second ice cream is half-price, but my friend isn't here. Could you buy it with me?"

Zhao Huo said, "Uh... no."

"Why?" the beautiful girl asked, feigning a pout. "Don't tell me you want to eat two ice creams?"

"No, it's just that my second half-price companion is already here." Zhao Huo pointed to the person standing behind the beautiful girl.

The beautiful girl turned her head and saw a stunning woman with her hair in a ponytail, wearing a white shirt and hotpants, standing behind her. She wasn't embarrassed at all and laughed openly, "Then maybe next time I can have ice cream with you. Goodbye, Teacher Zhao!"

After the beautiful girl left, Zhao Huo spread his hands and said, "Xiao Meng, this really isn't my fault."

"How many times has this happened?" Xiao Meng wasn't angry, just found it somewhat amusing. "I came down to the mini-mart to buy a bottle of rock sugar pear drink and saw girls hitting on you. You've really become a hot commodity now."

"It's the third time," Zhao Huo also looked dejected, following Xiao Meng to the third floor of the cafeteria. "I don't understand why. I thought aside from you all, no other girls would dare to approach me..."

Suddenly, a familiar voice called out from behind, "Zhao Huo, Xiao Meng."

Zhao Huo and Xiao Meng turned their heads and saw Bai Ji, still in winter clothing and a scarf despite it being April. They greeted him, "Old Bai, you're also coming to the cafeteria? Who are you with?"

Bai Ji smiled. "I was invited by some students to eat with them, and they even got my food. So, I had to come to the mini-mart to buy drinks to treat them in return. I won't disturb you."

After saying goodbye to Bai Ji, Xiao Meng suddenly asked Zhao Huo, "Have you noticed anything different about Teacher Bai?"

"Hmm?" Zhao Huo blinked and said, "He seems quite happy recently, not as cold as before."

Xiao Meng said, "Don't you think he looks prettier than before?"

Zhao Huo replied, "Prettier? You mean handsome, right? But he has always been handsome, second only to me. Maybe he's been in a better mood because he hasn't seen Ren Suo recently, so he's slept better and his complexion has improved?"

They reached the dining hall on the third floor, where Miss Fan and Sun Shu were already waiting. Xiao Meng briefly told them what had just happened. Miss Fan raised an eyebrow and snorted coldly, "A bunch of social-climbing, manipulative girls."

Zhao Huo tilted his head. "Social-climbing? But I don't have much money now. Even the place we live in was bought by you."

The teacher's dormitory was too small for four people. Initially, Zhao Huo had thought of renting, but Miss Fan had directly bought a fully furnished flat within a few days, and they had already moved in.

"But you're a dragon," Sun Shu laughed. "In the future, you will be a Nine-Turn Cultivator, a Dragon King on the same level as Ren Zuo of the Great Wall—equivalent to a blue-chip stock that can appreciate hundreds of thousands of times. It's normal for girls to want to change their lives through you."

Zhao Huo shook his head. "But that's still years away. Besides, my current reputation isn't exactly stellar, is it? They probably think I'm a lecherous, insatiable jerk with several wives..."

Miss Fan said indifferently, "Aren't you?"

Xiao Meng said, "That's exactly why they think you're an insatiable lecher and try to seduce you so casually. We've been eating on the third floor these days; she knew that, so she deliberately waited at the entrance to ambush you... In others' eyes, you're the type of frivolous man who could get seduced even while dining with his girlfriends."

Realizing their resentment, Zhao Huo chuckled foolishly and changed the subject. "When do you think we'll go on a honeymoon trip like Ren Suo and the others?"

Miss Fan said, "At least wait until we enter the second turn and obtain the *Mysterious Sovereign's Secret Records*. After learning the basic cultivation techniques, we won't need to stay at the academy and can go wherever we want."

Sun Shu also nodded. "Brother Huo, we're already so far behind. While the enlightenment from the *Top-secret Archives* is still with us, we must make good use of this opportunity to cultivate."

Xiao Meng said, "Speaking of which, those beauties hitting on you might not be after your money, or your future Nine-Turn Cultivator status, and they might not even care how many women you have... They might just want to appear in the *Top-secret Archives* as elite cultivators, like us. After all, the three women intimately involved with you have, without exception, become future powerhouses capable of holding their own in cosmic wars. If they were to give themselves to you, they'd secure a bright future as a Seven-Turn Cultivator and become one of the Remnant Soldiers. Forget women, I think men would rush to agree too... Have you encountered any male students who've been particularly attentive to you these days?"

Zhao Huo was slightly stunned, his lips twitching. "Surely... not?"

Miss Fan said, "Besides, a honeymoon trip should usually happen after getting married, right? Cheng Ling and the others aren't really on a honeymoon trip."

Sun Shu spoke wistfully, "Getting married, huh... Will they really get married in the future?"

Xiao Meng frowned slightly at this point. "Speaking of which, Ren Suo, Dong Chengling, and Qiao Muyi didn't appear in any part of the *Top-secret Archives*, even though they are already Fourth-Stage Cultivators..."

"They'll appear in the next episode," Zhao Huo stated decisively. "Even if they don't, it only means the Supreme Supreme can't mobilize their 1999 versions."

Ren Suo... a man of base character and foolish heart, his blood vile, his soul black as filth. With more than three wives, undefeated in love's battlefield, truly a paragon among scoundrels.

Someone like him is bound to thrive, living a life of luxury, probably idling his days away yet still becoming a prominent figure. Plus, he's greedy and fiercely protective; he'd never let his loved ones come to harm.

"He will definitely lead a happy life in the future." Zhao Huo looked earnestly at his girlfriends. "He will strive for this goal."

"They will live happily ever after, like in a fairy tale, just like us."

The three women exchanged glances, then Miss Fan sharply pointed out, "But what if they end up killing each other over a love affair?"

Zhao Huo fell into silence.

That's also true… I always feel like Ren Suo will get even more wives...

Sigh, for friendship's sake, if I can save his life, I should…

Xiao Meng said, "Are you sure you can actually defeat Qiao Muyi and Dong Chengling?"

Zhao Huo fell silent again.

That's true… If they live until 2049, their achievements will likely be no less than mine…

But as long as I can help, I'll definitely give Ren Suo a hand…

Sun Shu said, "What if you're too far away to help? For example... if they're abroad. After all, they aren't married yet, haven't really adjusted to each other, and are going on a group honeymoon. It feels like many conflicts could arise. What if someone makes the first move..."

Zhao Huo could almost picture it: Qiao Muyi, drenched in blood, cradling Ren Suo's severed head, sitting in a small boat sailing towards the distant sunset…

Could this be why they didn't appear in the *Top-secret Archives*? Ren Suo, after paving the way for me, will make a heroic sacrifice?

Alas! Ren Suo is in peril!

But there was nothing he could do to help with such matters, and Zhao Huo certainly couldn't meddle in their relationships. After much thought, he decided to send Ren Suo a subtle, suggestive message.

「 」

"Today is Brother Cheng's death anniversary. Forward this message to a hundred people, and your love life won't suffer a disastrous breakup!"

Ren Suo scratched his head as the message suddenly popped up. You anime fans are so boring. I don't even know who Brother Cheng is.

Ren Suo simply ignored the message and browsed the results of this Future Communication.

"Void Empress's Absolute Power: The Destiny of 1999 is under the Void Empress's absolute power. All tags for public recruitment in this chapter become rare and multiple selections are allowed (up to 3), guaranteeing the recruitment of High-Tier Cultivators."

"Mysterious Enchantress's Brutal Rule: The Destiny of 1999 is dominated by the Mysterious Enchantress's brutal rule. The longer the public recruitment period (in real time), the higher the quality of elite cultivators recruited (minimum effective time is 1 hour, maximum effective time is 30 hours)."

"Note: Due to space-time communication resonance, the public recruitment pool has expanded from ten thousand to one hundred thousand people."

Thirty hours—that was a day and six hours. Ren Suo immediately chose public recruitment and found he could do it twice in a row. After all, the Heavenly Maiden Sovereign had already unleashed the Storm of All Laws, and the Critical Value was continuously increasing.

Compared to previous Future Communications, the effects of the Void Empress and the Mysterious Enchantress were stronger. The Void Empress allowed multiple selections of rare tags, meaning if multiple High-Tier Cultivators appeared, they could be of different types. The Mysterious Enchantress only needed thirty hours to enhance recruitment effects, whereas before it required seventy-two.

However, Ren Suo understood "Absolute Power," but what did "Brutal Rule" signify…?

Just as Ren Suo finished managing the two public recruitments, the bathroom door opened.

Little Jiu, not wearing slippers and dressed in a loose, cute pajama set, wandered barefoot on the carpet. Dong Chengling called her over to comb her hair.

Ren Xingmei, wearing a cat-themed pajama set, stood at the doorway, curiously looking back at the bathroom. "Xianyu, what's wrong? Come out."

"Sob, sob..." Lin Xianyu emerged shyly, pulling at the hem of her nightgown and biting her lower lip. "So embarrassing... Class Rep, why did you pick this set for me..."

Lin Xianyu was wearing a pink nightgown, its hem short enough to barely cover her bottom—clearly a cool, summer style.

Gu Yueyan said, "Aren't they all pajamas?"

Lin Xianyu hid behind Ren Xingmei and said, "I was only planning to wear this set when sleeping with you girls... Even my dad has never seen me in this, but now Big Brother Ren has..."

Ren Suo said, "Xianyu, I don't know if this will make you feel any better, but when I looked at you, I felt nothing. My focus automatically shifted to my sister."

Lin Xianyu managed a wry smile. "Thanks, I don't feel any better at all."

Ren Xingmei said proudly, "Sorry, but I'm far more charming than you."

Lin Xianyu scoffed, "Oh? Really? Then please, charming Little Star, lie down on the bed."

Ren Xingmei, puzzled, still obediently lay down on the bed. Lin Xianyu took a can of Coke from the mini-fridge, opened it, took a sip, and said, "There's a new 'milk tea challenge' online, where you drink milk tea held only by your chest, no hands. I'll be honest, I can't do it, but... I think you can, Little Star!"

Lin Xianyu placed the Coke can on Ren Xingmei's chest.

It stood steady as Mount Tai.

Ren Xingmei's expression was completely deadpan. "Xianyu—"

Feeling it was his cue, Ren Suo picked up the Coke, took a large gulp, then patted Ren Xingmei's head comfortingly. "It's okay, I like you just as much."

Ren Xingmei's mouth twitched; she trembled with anger. Lin Xianyu said, "Little Star, do you now feel the agony I experienced from Big Brother Ren's 'comfort'?"

After the commotion, the Black Cat meowed. Little Jiu excitedly climbed into bed next to Ren Suo, saying, "Little Jiu is sleepy and wants to sleep!"

Lin Xianyu nodded and went over to pick up Little Jiu. "It's time for bed. Come on, Little Jiu, let's go to the little dark room—"

"NO—I—DON'T—WANT—TO—"

Little Jiu clung to Ren Suo like an octopus. "Little Jiu doesn't want to sleep with Xianyu! I want to sleep with Big Brother! SOB SOB SOB—"

"No way! You're still an elementary school student; you can't be so inappropriate! Off you go—"

In an instant, nine fluffy red-and-white tails burst out with a POOF, directly bouncing Lin Xianyu aside.

Lin Xianyu rolled twice on the bed, momentarily stunned. Then, overjoyed, she rushed over and hugged Little Jiu's nine tails. "WOW~~~ This is amazing! The feel, the sheer number! Little Jiu, you have to sleep with me tonight!"

"I don't want to!" Little Jiu's hair gradually turned white, and two small fox ears subtly appeared. Her grip on Ren Suo tightened considerably. Then, with a flick of her tails, she once again bounced the fumbling, groping Lin Xianyu aside.

"Little Jiu, you..." Ren Suo asked in surprise, "You have four ears!"

"Whoa, really!" Ren Xingmei also leaned over curiously, poking Little Jiu's fox ears and human ears. "Can you use all four?"

"It really feels so comfortable." Gu Yueyan also came over to play with Little Jiu's tails. Facing Gu Yueyan, Little Jiu didn't dare to be unruly and obediently let her stroke them.

"They all work," Qiao Muyi said with a smile. "But they don't enhance hearing. The fox ears are a product of Spiritual Energy and aren't physically connected to the cochlea; they just collect sound vibrations via Spiritual Energy. In this respect, all auditory illusion techniques designed to block hearing are ineffective against Little Jiu."

Qiao Muyi's explanation reminded Ren Suo that when he, Dong Chengling, and Ren Xingmei went to the Didra Plane, Little Jiu had apparently been under Qiao Muyi's care...

Qiao Muyi had studied Little Jiu's nine-tailed form so thoroughly! What on earth happened during those days!?

Dong Chengling teleported onto the bed, reached out to hug Little Jiu, and said, "Little Jiu, be good. It's time for bed. I'll take you."

"I don't want to!"

Little Jiu's eyes brimmed with tears. She actively used her nine tails to try and coax Dong Chengling, saying pitifully, "Little Jiu doesn't want to sleep in the small room. Little Jiu wants to sleep with everyone."

If Little Jiu had said she wanted to sleep with Ren Suo, Dong Chengling would have teleported her away without a second thought. But Little Jiu's innocent request to sleep with everyone put Dong Chengling in a difficult position.

Qiao Muyi slightly raised her eyebrows and huffed.

"MEOW~"

Just then, Luna suddenly transformed back into her human form. She was already in Ren Suo's arms, so she simply hugged him tightly, nudging Little Jiu out with her rear.

"So sleepy. Tonight, Luna wants to sleep with Suosuo~" Luna said languidly.

"Luna, sit still," Ren Suo gently pressed Luna down on the bed and said seriously, "Be mindful of others when you transform. Look, you knocked Little Jiu aside."

"Oh— Little Jiu, I'm sorry," Luna said obediently.

Little Jiu, looking displeased, sat on her nine tails. She turned, took Dong Chengling's hand, and asked pitifully, "Sister Ling, can Little Jiu sleep with you tonight?"

As she spoke, her nine tails swayed slowly back and forth, as if expressing their owner's hopeful yet anxious feelings.

"...Yes." Big Sister Dong Chengling still couldn't refuse her little sister's request.

"Finally going to sleep, huh." Qiao Muyi squinted, stretching lazily, her beautiful figure fully revealed. She then sat on the bed, the pristine white sheets indenting to mark her territory.

A corner of her mouth hooked up. She scanned the room and gave a strange smile. "So... what should we do now?"

"Three king-sized beds side-by-side should definitely be enough space, but now we have... six people, one cat, and one little girl."

Qiao Muyi, Dong Chengling, Gu Yueyan, Ren Xingmei, and Little Jiu looked at each other, sparks seeming to fly where their gazes met.

"How should we... arrange the sleeping positions?"

Anyway, the first step is to make Big Brother Ren sleep in the bathroom, Lin Xianyu thought.
