At this moment, there was indeed more than just Luo Zhen in the hot spring. Apart from Kujo Sara, everyone else was there, wrapped in bath towels. Their fair skin, glistening under the water, was dazzling and overwhelming.
Raiden Mei's face turned bright red. She was originally embarrassed to bathe with Ryouma, but since everyone else had come, she gritted her teeth and followed suit.
Luo Zhen sighed inwardly. If it were just one person, perhaps they could take advantage of the ambiguous atmosphere and something could happen. But now there were so many people, several of whom were meeting for the first time. They couldn't possibly start a group meeting when everyone was meeting for the first time, could they? That wouldn't be good.
Chapter 116 The Fox's Gratitude / Exusiai's Plea for Help.
The calmest person in the entire hot spring was Lei Dianying. She was a staunch harem supporter who, when seeing a stock market novel, could say, "Wouldn't it be great if we just gave the male lead a character who could accept everyone?"
She has absolutely nothing to do with anything like pulling and arguing over stock trading or being coy and hesitant.
At this moment, a wooden board floated in front of Lei Yingdian, on which were placed glutinous rice balls, milk, and three-colored glutinous rice balls. After serving five hundred years in prison, he could finally enjoy himself.
Luo Zhen glanced at Lei Dian: "Did you preserve Lei Dian's remains? If you did, even if it's just a bone, I can repair her remains and give her a body."
He was trying to figure out that if soul resurrection counts as resurrection, then by giving them bodies, could he complete the quest again?
My sister's body...
Lei Dianying recalled that five hundred years ago, when he rushed to Kanria, his sister was already on her deathbed, and he only saw her one last time.
Demons are not so easily annihilated. Even if they are killed, they will leave behind power, which is an unresolved grudge for ordinary people and even beings of the Yaksha level.
Lightning's body doesn't completely disappear like a mortal's; traces can always be found.
But recalling how Raiden had gone to Kanria on her own initiative five hundred years ago, which led to her death, she was reluctant to let her sister regain her body.
As long as I can stay with her, I won't encounter that kind of danger.
Lei makes no attempt to hide her emotions; her thoughts are written all over her face. When Luo Zhen saw the reluctant look on her face, he could roughly guess what she was thinking.
Yae no Miko seemed to have learned something, but the remains of Kitsui-gumi were not so easy to find. Although the bodies of great demons are not so easily decomposed by the earth, Kitsui-gumi fought against the calamity of the abyss to protect Narukami Island and was eventually swallowed by the calamity. It was hard to say whether any remains could be left behind.
Luo Zhen could go back 500 years to collect their bodies, but he doesn't plan to speak up for now. He wants to save his important friends, and he'll be much happier and more satisfied if they can do something themselves than if they do nothing.
I'm so considerate and thoughtful of them.
Luo Zhen didn't soak in the hot spring for too long. Although there were many beautiful girls in the hot spring, there were just too many, so nothing could be done. He was still in the hot spring, so he couldn't possibly taste the delicious soup base of the mixed stew of beautiful girls.
As he stood up from the steaming hot spring to leave, glistening water droplets rolled down his taut muscles, Luo Zhen's body as perfect as an ancient Greek sculpture.
His broad shoulders outlined an inverted triangle silhouette, and the well-defined muscles in his chest and abdomen rose and fell slightly with his breath. Every line contained just the right amount of strength, neither overly bulging nor thin, like a work of art carefully sculpted by God.
Yae no Miko teased, "Oh my, Mr. Shopkeeper has quite a good figure. I didn't notice it when he was dressed."
The spirits of Raiden Shin and Kitsune Sōgū emerged from behind Raiden's movie, making it appear at first glance that she had three heads:
"He's really good-looking, and he's also very handsome."
"I want to touch my abs, they look amazing."
"The chest muscles might feel even better."
If they were alone with Luo Zhen, they would definitely be too embarrassed to say it. But now that there are many of them, they are bolder and dare not only to speak but also to look.
Raiden Mei blushed. Luo Zhen's figure was indeed very beautiful. It wasn't just men who liked to look at women; women also liked to look at men.
As a man of action, Lei Yingdian heard that his sister wanted to touch him, so he swam over and grabbed her.
If she wished, she could sense the movements of the outside world even in the Pure Land of One Heart. She used a rare little trick to try and distract Raiden from recovering his body and keep him in her Pure Land of One Heart for protection.
Cool, soft fingertips touched Luo Zhen's abs, causing a slight itch. Lei's long purple hair was piled on her head, giving her a rather charming, married woman look.
The moisture dampened her hair, and glistening droplets dripped down her slender, swan-like neck, gathering at the hollow of her delicate collarbone before sliding down her snow-white skin into the abyss.
The rising steam from the hot spring pool blurred the view. Apart from Luo Zhen, who was still wearing wet shorts, everyone else was only wrapped in thin bath towels.
Lei Yingdian was extremely close at this moment, so close that Luo Zhen only needed to lower his eyes slightly to take in the enchanting scenery that was partially obscured by the moisture.
The edge of the bath towel slipped slightly, revealing her rounded shoulders. In the rising steam, that shimmering white skin was even more dazzling and mesmerizing than the hot spring water.
"Let me touch it too."
Fox Palace took control of the body and felt Luo Zhen's pectoral muscles.
"Oh dear, Mr. Manager, you're blushing."
Yae no Miko teased, her pink fox ears twitching, "Are you shy? I thought you weren't shy at all."
No, I want to touch it too!
Raiden Mei mustered up her courage and approached Ryouma. She was the one who met Ryouma first, and they had even become close. Was she destined to be the first to arrive?
She took a deep breath, pushed aside the water, and walked to Luo Zhen's side. Her fingertips trembled slightly, but she firmly placed her hand on his broad shoulders and back. The muscles under her palm were firm and warm, with distinct lines, containing a reassuring sense of strength. She gently caressed them, her heart racing.
Seeing this, Yae Sakura shoved Raiden Mei, and amidst her gasp, she pressed herself against Luo Zhen's back. If Raiden Mei hadn't reacted quickly, her bath towel would have been torn off.
She blushed and said, "Sakura, don't be like this."
Yae Sakura quietly watched Raiden Mei, who was saying one thing but meaning another, until Raiden Mei turned her head away in embarrassment.
Seeing that Kitsune-no-Miya, who seemed to be acting like an adoptive mother, was touching Rozen's abs and pectoral muscles with her body, Yae no Miko felt a little jealous, but she didn't show it. Instead, she teased Sango-no-Miya Kokoro standing to the side.
"Why is Miss Deep-Sea Turbot so unsociable? It's a rare opportunity to enjoy a mixed-gender hot spring bath, why don't you go up and check it out?"
"This kind of experience is completely unnecessary."
Coral Palace Heart Sea was already struggling to participate in the mixed bathing; she had never seen such a scene before, and unlike the old and thick-skinned Yae no Miko, "Miss Linglong Fried Tofu, perhaps you want to go but are too embarrassed, and want me to give you some courage?"
"It's a rare experience, it would be a shame not to participate."
Following the example of Yae Sakura, Yae no Miko pushed Sango no Kokoro into Luo Zhen's arms.
"Ah!" X2.
Because of her movement, two screams rang out at the same time. Xin Hai pushed aside Lei Yingdian and rushed into Luo Zhen's arms, still tightly clutching a bath towel in her hand.
Luo Zhen held the soft, boneless Kokoro, whose fragrance was intoxicating, but his eyes were fixed on Yae no Miko, because the towel in Kokoro's hand belonged to Yae no Miko.
When Yae no Miko pushed her over, Shinkai was at a loss and in her panic grabbed her bath towel and pulled it off.
In just a moment, Yae no Miko reacted immediately, hugging her body and disappearing into the water. Her demonic power summoned a misty water vapor that enveloped her beautiful and completely exposed body.
But who is Luo Zhen? Even setting aside the power of the star core that can cover the earth's surface, just considering his status as a dragon descendant who is advancing triumphantly on the path to immortality, his life essence has already undergone a qualitative leap. His physical strength has reached an inconceivable level, his five senses are extremely sharp, and his nerve reflexes are as fast as lightning.
Even if it was only for a moment, he reacted and saw it clearly.
Even this little bit of moisture and demonic energy couldn't obstruct his view, and he could see the precious scene of the fox spirit in the water.
"As expected of Lord Gongsi, he has truly mastered the art of hospitality, being so warm and hospitable."
Coral Palace was overjoyed at winning the game and forgot to leave Luo Zhen's embrace.
"Could it be that you intend to repay the shopkeeper's kindness in this way?"
Yae no Miko used her magic to snatch the towel back from her hands and wrap it around herself again before the steam dissipated.
She looked at Xinhai, who was still in Luo Zhen's arms, and chuckled, "No one could be as eager to repay a debt of gratitude as Miss Xinhai."
Coral Palace Xin Hai came to her senses, her body slightly stiff. Not only was it the first time she had been held by a man, but more importantly, she felt as if there was a flaming spear beneath the hot spring.
How could anyone bring a weapon while soaking in a hot spring? Having read light novels extensively, she immediately guessed what it was, and her legs went weak.
"Repaying kindness is not something to be rushed, nor should it be limited to the same method."
Luo Zhen took the initiative to open his heart. With so many people watching, what kind of atmosphere could there be? It was impossible to take things any further, so it was better to end it directly.
"I've had enough soaking."
He stood up and said, "You guys enjoy your soak in the hot spring. I'm going out for some fresh air."
He changed his clothes and went outside the castle tower, where he unexpectedly saw a person: Kujo Sara.
Kujo Sara was in a state of turmoil. Normally she would be at home by this time, but her adoptive father and brother were imprisoned for colluding with the Fools and betraying General Raiden. She always felt empty there.
Now it's truly impossible to be both loyal to the country and filial to the people.
So she simply came to the castle tower and became a guard for General Raiden. Just thinking about her beloved general meditating behind the gate made her feel as if a sun was rising, illuminating the entire Inazuma and her heart.
"Why are you here?"
A man's voice rang out, and Kujo Sara looked at Luo Zhen, her gaze unconsciously falling on his right hand—the very hand that had blasphemed the god.
No, it shouldn't be called blasphemy. It was the General who made that action on his own initiative. The General couldn't have done anything wrong.
Kujo Sara was torn between her inner thoughts and her own. Seeing this, Rozen raised his right hand and waved it in front of her. He found it quite amusing to see Kujo Sara's gaze following his hand as it moved.
Kujo Sara is pondering a serious question. To her, the Thunder General is a great god who rules over everything. The cup the general used is called the Holy Grail, the marks he left behind are called Stigmata, and the weapons he forged are called Sacred Blades.
So here's the question: what should be called about the men the general used? Saint Husband?
Although it was only used once, the fact that the general took the initiative to hold it and place it on his chest meant that it was no ordinary hand; it was a sacred right hand!
To Luo Zhen's astonishment, Kujo Sara took his right hand, as if the aura of the Thunder General still lingered on it, and with a respectful expression, almost as if she were about to kowtow to his right hand.
He tentatively pinched Kujo Sara's cheek; she hesitated but did not resist.
When Luo Zhen reached out to pinch her cheeks, Kujo Sara slapped Luo Zhen's left hand away:
"Your Excellency is a charlatan (seven) and a scoundrel. Please have some self-respect."
Luo Zhen couldn't hold back anymore. Kujo Sara was just too outrageous. Suppose I told you that Rai had just touched my abs and pecs, how would you react?
Sigh, I can't get along with fanatics.
He didn't take the opportunity to do anything excessive; he simply restrained both of her hands with his right hand, pinched her face hard with his left hand while she glared at him angrily, and then left feeling refreshed.
He took a nap in the castle tower, and unfortunately, no one launched a night raid, so he slept soundly until dawn.
Yae no Miko went to search for the remains of the Fox Palace early in the morning. It was unknown how long the search would take. Luo Zhen did not wait long and returned to the quest hut with Raiden Mei and Yae Sakura.
He granted her access, so Raiden Mei could go to Inazuma to spar with Raiden Mei at any time, and if Yae Miko found the remains of Kitsune-no-Miya, she could also enter the quest hut to find him.
"My Lord Messiah!"
Exusiai rushed in through the door and, upon seeing Rōzen, immediately offered him a devout prayer.
After the prayer was finished, Exusiai approached Rozen:
“Messiah, I have returned to Lateran and told my people about your coming, but they do not believe me and think I have been deceived. I would like to ask you to come to Lateran and show them miracles. They are very devout and will surely offer their faith to you.”
Luo Zhen looked at Exusiai and noticed that she seemed slightly nervous, so he smiled and said:
"Is that all?"
"As expected, nothing can hide it from your eyes."
Exusiai scratched her head and smiled sheepishly. "My sister Remian is in a wheelchair and can't get up because of an accident. I hope you can use your divine power to restore her health."
