Confessing to someone who thinks I'm a fat otaku, and then crying when monsters descend?

"Chen Nian, the world you are going to next is designated C-04, which belongs to the third tier."

"Within the rules of this world, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is the main source of power. Flowers, trees, wild animals in the mountains, and all things can be used for cultivation."

"The higher the level of the world, the stronger the natives become. For example, even if they are both at the sixth level, a sixth-level being from a lower world will definitely be no match for someone from an upper world."

"Try not to provoke others, and come back when your friend has succeeded."

Director Liu received the assignment and issued Chen Nian permission to bring people on the World Tree Train, and gave him some instructions.

After all, Chen Nian was his prized student.

"Okay, thank you, Director Liu!"

"By the way, there are some students I used to teach in that world, but he went to the advanced department after reaching the seventh rank. If you're lucky, you might run into him again."

"What a coincidence that you were one of Director Liu's former students? If we meet, please give me your regards," Chen Nian said with a smile.

"His name is Qin Xuan, but he is not human. He is a snake demon from that world who was later recruited into the academy."

Chen Nian was speechless: "Demons can enter academies?"

"Those who are highly talented, strong, of good character, and possess the determination and courage to fight against calamities will have a chance if they pass the assessment."

"Okay, I've got it. Thank you, Director Liu. I wish you and Director Miao a long and happy marriage!"

"You brat."

In the days that followed, Chen Nian planned to train at the academy for a period of time before returning to pick up Tamamo-no-Mae.

He discovered that his strength had increased after his trip to the Nine Provinces.

Each power level is roughly divided into three stages: early stage, middle stage, and peak stage.

Chen Nian's power has almost reached the middle stage.

It seems that these consecutive battles have some benefits!

Especially after finally obtaining Bo Yi's power, although that power was not reserved, it allowed Chen Nian to experience an unparalleled sense of power, which was of great benefit.

Normal training and combat can also improve one's rank, but the speed is slower.

Using performance points to find the World Tree to improve your rank is faster, but performance points are not easy to obtain; you have to defeat the powerful forces of the Calamity.

Training room.

Countless simulated calamity beasts surged towards Chen Nian.

Chen Nian closed his eyes tightly, trying hard to recall the feeling at that time; this was his thirty-eighth attempt.

"Open the Heavenly Eye!"

A blinding beam of divine light shot from his forehead into the sky.

"Law... Heaven... Phenomena... Earth!"

In an instant, a colossal divine spirit appeared behind Chen Nian, shattering all the calamity beasts that had rushed at him.

"It worked?"

Chen Nian was overjoyed.

At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Manifestation technique he used was not as powerful as before; it lacked the overwhelming sense of awe-inspiring presence and still consumed precious primordial divine power.

However, the fact that it can be used even with difficulty is already a great thing!

This is equivalent to having another powerful trump card comparable to "Divine Cage".

Chen Nian was certain that after activating the Law of Heaven and Earth, he would be able to fight beyond his level.

The so-called "crossing ranks" here doesn't refer to weaklings like the Four Holy Lords of the Nine Provinces Continent. Although they are also one rank higher than Chen Nian, they are ultimately just ordinary natives, so fighting across ranks isn't difficult for them.

Chen Nian's ability to advance beyond his level means that he can even overcome top-tier geniuses from other planes, or primordial demon gods, by advancing beyond his level!

In short, activating the Law of Heaven and Earth allows one to fight against a seventh-tier Primal Demon God.

When Chen Nian left the training room, he was drenched in sweat but extremely excited, because becoming stronger was always Chen Nian's pursuit.

Blue Star is located in the middle layer of the World Tree, numbered E-03, the fifth level.

Following the logic that calamities invade from the bottom up, the fifth level is a danger zone, and only those who are strong enough can protect their important family members.

"Senior Chen Nian!"

Lin Xiaomeng, who had been waiting for a long time, exclaimed in surprise from a chair outside the training room.

She wore a JK plaid mini skirt with black stockings and leather shoes, a classic and stylish combination, and her looks were still quite stunning.

"You must be tired. I bought you an iced drink."

Lin Xiaomeng handed over the drink with a smile, and Chen Nian took it and drank it without being polite.

"Senior, have you eaten?"

"I didn't eat."

"What a coincidence, I haven't eaten either. How about we go eat together?"

"Are you treating?"

"Yes, I'd like to ask you, senior: I performed exceptionally well among the freshmen and received quite a few scholarships!"

"Then transfer the money to me, and I'll bring you some food back to your dorm later."

"No... it's you..."

"You might want to order a little more, because Tang Rou has a big appetite; I've made plans with her tonight."

Lin Xiaomeng deeply felt how ridiculous she looked at that moment, but she still forced a smile:

"No, it's okay, the three of us can eat together. I don't mind inviting one more person!"

"Then you'd better eat less later, especially the things Tang Rou likes. She'll be unhappy if others take too much."

"?"

Lin Xiaomeng's forehead veins bulged, and her nose felt burning hot.

She never imagined that there could be such a heartless man in the world!

However, what she didn't expect was that Chen Nian's heart was as hard as iron, and he didn't touch her, his roommate, for a whole month.

Even if he suddenly makes strange groaning noises while sleeping at night, it won't unleash his animalistic nature.

However, one night, she tried to say to Chen Nian: "Senior, I'll let you touch my legs for free, and you don't have to sign a contract with me, how about it?"

Chen Nian, who had been completely still, suddenly sat up in bed!

When it comes to getting something for free, he immediately wakes up; he really can't stand the slightest loss.

A month later, Chen Nian left the academy, but this time he took Tang Rou with him because she said that the Qingming Festival was approaching and she needed to go back to pay respects to her ancestors.

.......

The Capital of Gods and Demons.

Tamamo-no-Mae is having a conversation with another fox within her heart.

"Chen Nian said he'll be back in a month at most. If you don't make up your mind now, you'll miss your chance!"

"Now that we know the reason we can't break through to higher realms is because of the limitations of this world, is there still any need to resort to underhanded tactics?"

"Cultivation requires inner clarity. If his shadow is always in your heart, you will not be able to break through even if you go to another world!"

Your goal is to break through your cultivation realm, and my goal is to cultivate with my benefactor. They don't conflict at all~~

"Then, when we're together again, our spiritual realm will be elevated, our inner desires will be fulfilled, and we'll be truly happy. Why not do it?"

Tamamo-no-Mae said irritably, "You shameless, lewd fox."

"I am your other half; this is the nature of a fox."

"Even for this purpose, is it really necessary to go through the trouble of sealing his memories? Couldn't we just pretend we don't know him?"

"I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up the pretense of intimacy with him, and you'll get angry and tell him to get lost halfway through your cultivation session. Aren't you afraid of being mortified and dying from shame?"

"That's enough!"

Without hesitation, Tamamo-no-Mae sharply touched her brow with her jade-like finger.

In an instant!

Her entire demonic power, along with her memories, was sealed away.

Even their bodies have shrunk.

Now, she has transformed from a mature nine-tailed fox into a graceful white-haired girl.

Her legs had become slimmer, and her breasts had shrunk a bit, but her alluring beauty remained undiminished; only her style had changed. She had become youthful and innocent, even possessing a touch of cute naivety in her eyes.

That's right, it's what she looked like when she first cultivated into human form.

Nine-Tailed Fox, a teenage version.

She collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness.

Of course, she also imposed a restriction before casting the spell: she would feel a great deal of affection for the first man she saw.

Then have Haruna stand guard outside and not let anyone in except Chen Nian.

.......

The aged product has arrived.

Arriving at the courtyard planted with cherry blossom trees, they found Tamamo-no-Mae nowhere to be seen, but Haruna was there waiting.

"Lord Chen Nian, you've finally arrived!"

"What about Tamamo-no-Mae?"

"They're inside. No one but you is allowed in! They say they're going to use some kind of rebuilding method to try and break through to a higher realm. Go in and take a look."

"OK."

The moment Chen Nian pushed open the door, he froze on the spot.

The golden sunlight streaming in fell on an impeccably beautiful face—a young girl in a kimono sitting on the ground.

Her skin was as white as snow, and her figure was slender and graceful. She was looking at me with innocent and naive eyes.

Moreover, she has a pair of cute fox ears on her head, and a snow-white fox tail can be clearly seen on the ground behind her!

"Who are you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl's face lit up with joy, and her fox tail swayed gently behind her, just like a pet seeing its owner.

"elder brother!"

In the blink of an eye, the girl had already embraced him.

Chen Nian felt the soft, warm fragrance of the woman in his arms and was momentarily dazed, feeling his heart melt.

He was going to ask, "Who are you?"

Now I realize it's unnecessary. Who can resist a beautiful fox-eared girl who calls you "brother"?

Haruna covered her mouth in surprise and exclaimed, "You...you're Sister Jiu'er...Oh my god!"

"Is she Tamamo-no-Mae?"

Chen Nian was also extremely surprised.

"It should be. Sister Jiu'er told me before that she would use a cultivation technique to return to her youthful appearance, making it easier for her to break through her cultivation level. If you come, just take her away."

"There's such a technique? That's incredibly cruel."

Tamamo-no-Mae, shy and timid, hid behind Chen Nian, watching Haruna warily, and making sounds like a kitten.

"Brother...I'm scared..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, your brother will protect you, hehe."

Chen Nian's heart fluttered. It was nice to be called "brother" by a beautiful girl, especially such an innocent and naive girl with animal ears!

"But why is she so close to me?" Chen Nian asked.

"I don't know, maybe it's because you were the first person she saw? Just like some children treat the first person they see as a family member."

"Such a good thing exists?"

Chen Nian smiled and said, "Then I'll call you Yu'er from now on. Her name is Qing Nai. She's my brother's friend, not a bad person."

Hearing Chen Nian say this, Yu'er relaxed her guard considerably.

The reaction was so real that Chen Nian initially thought it was Tamamo-no-Mae pretending to tease him, but now it seems that wasn't the case.

Just in case, he also activated his clairvoyance feature.

They discovered that this was not an illusion, and Tamamo-no-Mae indeed had no demonic power.

"Hahaha, serves you right for always bullying me, now it's my turn to bully you!"

Haruna stepped forward and pinched Yu'er's cheeks.

Yu'er didn't resist, just letting him do whatever he wanted, only her little mouth was slightly pouting, as if she was a little unhappy.

"Alright, alright, aren't you afraid she'll turn back and punish you severely?"

"Oh right..."

Haruna obediently stopped.

For the next month, Chen Nian played a real-life version of a monster-eared girl raising game.

He taught Yu'er everything about life with care and patience, and instead of being impatient, he enjoyed it.

After all, she would call him "brother" with a face full of adoration.

One day, Chen Nian was taking a nap under the cherry blossom tree in the yard when he suddenly felt a soft and moist touch on his cheek.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Yu'er licking his face. Her beautiful face was flushed with shyness, and she was extremely cute.

It's perfectly normal for foxes to lick humans they're close to.

Chen Nian gently stroked Yu'er's head, and the latter would happily squint her eyes, clearly enjoying it.

"abnormal...."

Haruna muttered under her breath, her eyes filled with disdain.

"What do you know, you useless priestess?"

During the month they spent together, Yu'er also learned some basic life skills and how to get along with others.

Of course, the animal ears and tail can also be hidden, and it looks no different from a normal human.

Next, she will be taken to the upper world so that she can successfully complete her breakthrough.

"It's a pity, she won't have this experience after her breakthrough."

Chen Nian was still somewhat hesitant. While the mature version of Tamamo-no-Mae was certainly alluring, the youthful version of Yu'er was equally endearing and could endlessly arouse a man's protective instincts.

"Yu'er, let's go."

"Uh-huh!"

Chen Nian took Yu'er on the World Tree Train.

Destination: World C-04.

The main goal is to help Tamamo-no-Mae achieve a breakthrough in her cultivation level.

......

"Yu'er, we've arrived."

Chen Nian took Yu'er's little hand and got off the car.

The two were in a deserted wilderness, overgrown with weeds and dense vegetation; train anchorages are usually set up in such places.

Yu'er was a little scared and clutched the hem of Chen Nian's clothes tightly.

"Don't be afraid, I will protect Yu'er."

"My brother is so good..."

Having arrived in a new world, Chen Nian was already quite familiar with the place. He first needed to find a human settlement.

Learn about local customs and traditions, gather as much information as possible, and integrate into the world.

Wait, power?

Chen Nian suddenly remembered the most important thing and began to try to activate his power.

The power remains, but it's incomplete...

Approximately, only about 50%.

Chen Nian quickly understood the reason.

First of all, I am still subject to the constraints of the world's rules.

However, he had already cultivated profound energy in Mu Yun's world.

The so-called profound energy was somewhat similar to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this world, and his body directly adapted to a portion of it.

Therefore, he has half the power, and the other half needs to be restored by finding another opportunity.

That's enough. This mission is very simple. We don't need to fight any powerful enemies. We just need to wait quietly for Tamamo-no-Mae to finish her training and then we can go back.

As long as I don't cause trouble, that's fine. I, Chen Nian, never go looking for trouble.

But they hadn't gone very far.

Suddenly, a tiger blocked their path a hundred meters ahead.

It's perfectly normal to have wild animals in these mountain forests.

"Ugh..."

Yu'er quickly hid behind Chen Nian, like a frightened kitten.

Chen Nian sneered, "These days, even a wild beast dares to block your way. I'll roast you and eat you in a bit."

Unexpectedly, the tiger suddenly began to speak human language.

"A fox demon, a human... Haha!"

"This fox demon has already cultivated into human form, but she doesn't possess a single trace of magical power. If we eat her, wouldn't we be giving away our cultivation for nothing!"

Chen Nian: No, buddy?

...
