Douluo : Capture the goddess starting from peerless tang sect

"Xian Lin'er must have quite a temper, doesn't she? You're really putting up with a lot being with her," Cai Meier said, her enchanting eyes sparkling with mock concern as she moved closer to Qianran.

Back in the day, Xian Lin'er had been anything but gentle, and her fiery personality was still infamous. Cai Meier couldn't imagine Xian Lin'er becoming suddenly soft and agreeable—especially to someone as young and seemingly weak as Qianran.

She figured it was more likely that Xian Lin'er bullied him mercilessly.

"Uh... not really," Qianran replied after some thought.

In reality, Xian Lin'er was utterly devoted to him. She would yield to nearly all his whims, even indulging some of his more playful, risqué ideas. At times, Qianran himself was left wondering if she saw him as more than just a lover—perhaps there was still a trace of maternal affection in her indulgence.

The same was true of Zhou Yi. Despite her stern demeanor, she treated Qianran with a warmth that bordered on doting.

For Qianran, who had been shaped by an upbringing filled with worldly knowledge and questionable internet content in his previous life, the situation was almost too perfect.

"Hmm. You're still young; you might not understand just yet," Cai Meier said, her tone laced with a hint of exasperation. "Fine, then. If Xian Lin'er dares to mistreat you, just let me know. I'll handle it for you. And if you ever have questions about your cultivation, feel free to come to me."

Cai Meier's offer was sincere.

As a senior soul master, she couldn't help but marvel at Qianran's extraordinary potential.

No matter how strong she or Xian Lin'er were now, Qianran's future far outshone theirs. He wasn't just a talent of their generation—he was destined to surpass them and perhaps even redefine what it meant to be a true genius.

Despite her suspicions, Cai Meier kept her demeanor pleasant. Deep down, she was already strategizing how to stay on Qianran's good side.

Having seen the Youth-Retaining Pill up close, she couldn't miss the fact that the vial contained more than one pill—at least five, by her count. Surely, Qianran would part with one someday.

If she maintained a good relationship with him, obtaining the pill might not be so difficult in the future.

"I've always wondered—where do you get all these miraculous treasures?" Cai Meier asked, her curiosity finally getting the better of her.

From the Dark Devilgod Tiger he kept in captivity to the phoenix flames he gave Ma Xiaotao, Qianran's possessions were nothing short of legendary. Even the potions and resources he provided to his companions, while less impressive, still showcased an uncanny level of rarity and value.

It was no wonder the Sea God Pavilion had taken an interest in him.

"That's a secret," Qianran replied smoothly, his lips curving into a playful smile.

Cai Meier pouted slightly. "Fine, don't tell me, then," she said with mock indignation, though a hint of genuine frustration lingered beneath her words.

She had already endured more than her fair share of teasing from Qianran, and now he refused to reveal his secrets. Still, she knew when to back off.

"Forget it. I'll find out sooner or later," she thought, excusing herself.

As soon as Cai Meier left, Qianran called Zhu Lu and Cui Yajie to his room.

The two girls had become increasingly competitive for his attention, and Qianran had no intention of disappointing them.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the sign-in with Goddess Cai Meier."

"Ding! Reward: Body Enhancement. After the enhancement, the host's body will reach an optimal state—stronger, more resilient, and more attractive."

The familiar system notification made Qianran's heart leap with excitement.

The prospect of improving his physical abilities was especially appealing. Though Qianran was already strong, he'd begun to feel the strain of maintaining relationships with so many women. With this enhancement, he would not only perform better but also look even more irresistible.

What's more, the improvements would extend beyond the bedroom. His overall physique and cultivation potential would both benefit immensely.

Of course, Qianran cared more about the former than the latter. Why bother cultivating manually when the system could do the heavy lifting for him?

"Time to test this out," Qianran thought, turning his attention to Zhu Lu and Cui Yajie.

Zhu Lu had changed into a sleek black bodysuit that highlighted her feline grace, while Cui Yajie donned a delicate pink dress and matching stockings. Both had activated their martial souls, revealing a fox tail and cat tail, respectively.

Hours later, the two lay sprawled across the bed, their faces flushed and their bodies trembling with residual warmth.

"Qianran, you seem even stronger than before," Zhu Lu murmured, her voice tinged with awe and exhaustion.

She could feel the difference—his strength, stamina, and even his appearance had all subtly improved.

"Really? What do you think, Yajie?" Qianran asked, casting a playful glance at the fox-tailed girl beside him.

Cui Yajie, her cheeks glowing a deep crimson, nodded shyly. "You've definitely improved," she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.

"And you two were amazing, as always," Qianran said, his arms wrapping around both girls as they nestled against him. Their soft, delicate frames seemed to melt into his embrace, their exhaustion only adding to their charm.

As much as he wanted to continue, he decided to let them rest.

"If you're already this tired, should I come back tomorrow?" Qianran teased, running his hands gently along their bodies.

"I'm fine," Zhu Lu replied quickly, her tone firm despite her obvious fatigue.

She couldn't bear the thought of Qianran spending the night with someone else. The competition among his companions was fierce, and every moment spent with him was a victory.

Cui Yajie nodded in agreement, her shyness replaced by determination. She had even been learning special dances to keep Qianran's attention, knowing that every bit of effort counted in their ongoing struggle for his time and affection.

For them, being chosen by Qianran wasn't just a privilege—it was a source of pride and validation.
