These three girls were all born into privilege and were usually waited on hand and foot outside, but now they rolled up their sleeves and began moving broken wooden boxes and rubble from the cellar.

Because of the heavy losses inflicted during the previous battle, they were having some difficulty carrying it.

Shui Lingxi tried to push a wine barrel that was half a person's height to the corner, but she couldn't move it after two tries.

She subconsciously turned to look at Yu Xiaoheng, wanting to ask for help, but felt a little embarrassed. They both knew they liked Yu Xiaoheng, but neither of them had confessed their feelings, and they always maintained a somewhat ambiguous distance in their daily interactions.

Now that they've met again, the urge to get close to her surges within him, yet he's restrained by the girl's reserve.

Chapter 505 As expected of Yu Xiaoheng!

Just as Shui Lingxi was hesitating.

Rou'er darted over from the side.

She didn't carry the same burdens as the other three. She threw the tattered rag aside, ran straight to Yu Xiaoheng, and sat down next to him.

Not only did she lean against him, she also rested most of her body on Yu Xiaoheng's arm.

"Xiao Heng, I'm tired. Those stones over there are too heavy, can you help me move them?"

Rou'er tilted her little face up and made her request with a sense of entitlement.

In her simple-minded mind, she and Yu Xiaoheng had experienced life and death together in the Star Dou Great Forest, and even walked through the sewers together in this City of Slaughter.

She was the woman he saved, and she didn't even want to be sacrificed!

Do others receive this kind of treatment?

So Rou'er secretly felt that her relationship with Yu Xiaoheng was the closest. Even though Yu Xiaoheng would always tap her on the head, it was still a sign of affection.

Yu Xiaoheng felt a soft touch on his arm as Rou'er leaned against him.

He glanced at Rou'er.

He wasn't actually that affectionate towards the rabbit. He didn't let her be sacrificed because he had his own moral bottom line; he couldn't bear to watch a living girl confess her love to him and die for him. But to say he was particularly fond of her wouldn't be an exaggeration.

However, he didn't dislike Rou'er's current appearance.

Yu Xiaoheng stood up, picked up the large rock that Rou'er was pointing to with one hand, and casually tossed it. The rock drew an arc in the air and landed steadily in the corner.

"Alright, stop pretending to be tired." Yu Xiaoheng patted the dust off his hands.

Rou'er looked at the big rock with bright eyes.

"Wow! Xiao Heng, you're so strong! No wonder you're the man I've set my sights on!" Rou'er deliberately raised her voice a few decibels.

That one sentence instantly ignited the atmosphere in the cellar.

Shui Lingxi's hand froze.

Shui Yun'er stopped wiping the table.

Bibi Dong, who was cleaning the cobwebs in the corner, turned around and stared at Rou'er with eyes as sharp as knives.

The three of them had been curious about this girl who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

However, the Shui sisters had met Rou'er in Blue Lightning before, and naturally introduced her to Bibi Dong.

Despite her stunning beauty and her carefree yet charmingly innocent nature, according to the Shui sisters, Rou'er was at most a good friend of Yu Xiaoheng, so there was no need to be overly wary.

But now, this woman is actually barging into the house and asserting her dominance?

The man you've set your sights on?

Bibi Dong threw the broom aside and walked straight toward Yu Xiaoheng.

She didn't even look at Rou'er, but stood directly in front of Yu Xiaoheng.

“There’s blood on your shoulder,” Bibi Dong said calmly.

She raised her hand and naturally placed it on Yu Xiaoheng's shoulder, gently wiping the bloodstains on his clothes with her sleeve. The two were very close, close enough that Yu Xiaoheng could smell the faint fragrance emanating from Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong usually has a cold and aloof demeanor, but now she is taking the initiative to do this kind of close service, which is entirely due to Rou'er's provocation.

Yu Xiaoheng did not dodge.

He was a normal man, someone who could appreciate beauty in a normal way. With three beautiful women vying for his attention, he had no reason to push them away. He remained calm, letting Bibi Dong do as she pleased, secretly enjoying himself.

Seeing this, Shui Yun'er was not to be outdone.

She walked to the other side of Yu Xiaoheng.

"Xiao Heng, you used so much force just now, are your wrists injured?"

Shui Yun'er's voice was gentle and soft. She stretched out her hands and gently lifted Yu Xiaoheng's right hand, carefully pressing and checking the joints of his wrist with her fingers.

Shui Lingxi panicked when she saw this situation.

She quickly ran over, trying to find a spot, but both sides of Yu Xiaoheng's seat were occupied. She simply walked up to Yu Xiaoheng, right next to Bibi Dong, took out a clean handkerchief, and wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead.

"Xiao Heng, are you thirsty? I have some clean water here."

Yu Xiaoheng was surrounded by three people.

On the left was Shui Yun'er's gentle massage, on the right was Bibi Dong's intimate care, and in front was Shui Lingxi's expectant gaze.

With this kind of treatment, most people would have gotten arrogant long ago.

Yu Xiaoheng maintained his indifferent expression, neither warm nor cold. He knew these girls were interested in him, and since they had come to him, it wouldn't hurt to enjoy the interaction for a while.

Rou'er was pushed to the outside and stomped her feet in anger.

"Hey! What are you three doing! I was the one who asked him for help first!"

Rou'er put her hands on her hips and protested loudly.

Without stopping, Bibi Dong uttered a sentence without turning her head.

"Who are you? When we met him, you were still playing in the mud somewhere."

This statement is extremely damaging.

Rou'er's eyes widened instantly.

"Who do you care who I am! I almost risked my life for him!" Rou'er was eager to prove her worth, and blurted out everything. "He even gave up a 100,000-year soul ring for me! Could you do that?!"

The cellar fell silent instantly.

Bibi Dong, Shui Yun'er, and Shui Lingxi all stopped what they were doing at the same time.

A 100,000-year-old soul ring?

As Soul Masters, they knew all too well what those words represented. They were the ultimate treasure coveted by every Soul Master on the entire Douluo Continent.

"What 100,000-year soul ring?" Bibi Dong turned her head and stared at Rou'er.

Rou'er raised her chin; naturally, she had nothing to hide.

My good brother is also in charge... well, he's someone I know, so I can definitely trust him!

Rou'er recounted everything about the Star Dou Great Forest in a straightforward manner.

From the moment they were being hunted down by the Spirit Hall, to his proposal to sacrifice himself, to Yu Xiaoheng's firm refusal.

She described it vividly, although she made some minor changes to the details.

For example, Yu Xiaoheng didn't actually say anything at the time.

But Rou'er's narration made it very clear—Yu Xiaoheng, faced with a 100,000-year soul ring that was within his grasp, refused it without hesitation in order to save her life.

After listening to Rou'er's story.

The way the three girls looked at Yu Xiaoheng changed.

Shui Lingxi covered her mouth, her eyes reddening again, tears welling up with emotion.

Shui Yun'er looked at Yu Xiaoheng's profile, her eyes filled with admiration.

Bibi Dong let out a long breath, and in her eyes looking at Yu Xiaoheng, in addition to the usual admiration, there was also added respect.

In their minds, Yu Xiaoheng had always been a good person who had been willing to enlighten Bibi Dong and risk his life for the Shui sisters.

But even such a man, when faced with the temptation of a 100,000-year soul ring that could elevate one to the top in one step, actually held firm to his principles.

He did not sacrifice a girl's life to gain power.

How noble this is!

What incredible bravery and fearlessness!

And it's a 100,000-year-old spirit ring!!

Which Soul Master doesn't dream of this!

Chapter 506 Safely Survive

Bibi Dong looked at Yu Xiaoheng and spoke softly.

“Brother Xiao Heng, I always knew you were strong, but I never expected your character to have reached this level. In the Douluo Continent, there is probably no one else who can resist the temptation of a 100,000-year spirit ring.”

Shuiyun'er echoed.

“Xiao Heng, you always pretend to be indifferent, but we know that you value relationships more than anyone else.”

Yu Xiaoheng sat in the chair, listening silently.

High-minded?

Majestic?

Brave and fearless?

He was internally ranting and raving.

When I rejected her, it was because...

That is……

In short, I'm a bit embarrassed, and besides, I don't really care about the Soft Bone Rabbit's spirit rings. It's not as exaggerated as you guys are making it out to be...

Now that they've lost their trump card for survival, they're feeling quite guilty.

But at this moment, he obviously couldn't say what was on his mind.
