Fox Demon: Why did your brother beat you up every day at the beginning of the month?

Seeing Ya Ya humming and whining as she ran to the side to practice her ranged ice spike attacks, Dongfang Haoyang smiled with satisfaction.

Although the little fox demon said she would never listen to him, Haoyang could tell that Ya Ya was actually trying very hard to restrain herself from using her sister's power-based techniques.

"Just as I thought, a stubborn but soft-hearted fool~"

In less than ten minutes, dozens of meters of icy spikes suddenly rose up, and the area within a hundred meters became almost entirely covered by icy spikes.

Nodding in satisfaction, Haoyang looked at the pleading look in the emerald green eyes beside him and helplessly tapped Rongrong's forehead, who was acting cute.

"Ah~ Young master is being biased..."

Haoyang smiled helplessly. He liked Rongrong, so how could he be biased?

"Hey, this is the Golden Light Mantra. And I want to make one thing clear: I always treat everyone equally, there is absolutely no favoritism. I will teach you personally later."

Dongfang Haoyang tapped Rongrong's forehead, who was grinning mischievously, and then slowly pointed two fingers upwards at two majestic mountain peaks connected together in the distance.

Tu Shan Rongrong chuckled and rubbed her forehead. How could she be angry with Haoyang? She was just having trouble accepting it for the time being.

Actually, Rongrong was quite happy that Haoyang was able to learn her magic.

But the next second, Rongrong's emerald eyes widened slightly. In her eyes, a sharp golden light, like a sickle, rose from Dongfang Haoyang's body. As Haoyang pointed his finger at two distant mountain peaks, he spoke softly.

"open……"

The golden light surged, and at the same time, it swung out like a sharp sword!

A golden light, visible to the naked eye, swept across the towering ice forest in an instant. The sounds of ice spikes crashing into the ground were incessant. From above, the top of the ice spike forest was flattened.

At the same time, two distant mountains were horizontally severed into two sections, one above the other. With a deafening roar, the mountaintops crashed into the ground, kicking up clouds of dust. Birds and beasts scattered in all directions. The ground began to tremble as a violent landslide occurred.

"Sigh...it seems like I've gone a bit too far..."

Dongfang Haoyang's lips twitched slightly. He slowly lowered his finger, and when he turned around, he saw Rongrong smiling as she held a contract in her small hand and looked at him with a grin.

"Hmm, to be honest, Rongrong's face is absolutely adorable, and she gets even cuter the closer you look at her. To be precise, Rongrong's body seems to be growing; she's almost as tall as me now."

Is she still developing...? Could she grow to Ya Ya's size...?

Uh, what am I thinking!

Tu Shan Rongrong chuckled and handed the contract to Haoyang, who was inwardly cursing himself for being a pervert.

"Young master, this is the compensation contract for the damage you caused to the Tushan environment. It's 10000 taels for both mountains."

"Huh?! I... I understand..."

Dongfang Haoyang's lips twitched violently. He had actually forgotten this rule; what a huge mistake! He should probably avoid teaching them in Tushan in the future...

I heard Beishan has a lot of territory... Uh oh no! Most of my lackeys are from Beishan...

Well then... how about the Southern Kingdom and the Western Regions? Anyway, there are only deserts and wastelands full of poisonous fog there, so it won't hurt to blow them up.

"Hehe, young master, you can borrow money from Rongrong, but the collateral I need is priceless~"

Dongfang Haoyang smiled helplessly, closed his eyes, and Tu Shan Rongrong hugged the handsome young man's face with a chuckle, then kissed his pink lips.

After quickly separating, Rongrong put the contract away (from her left hand to her right), and with her hands behind her back, she revealed a bright smile.

After studying for an hour, Rongrong had mastered the basic usage of the Golden Light Mantra. Although she could not transform into a physical form, the hardness, intensity, and duration of the golden light were much stronger.

"After I leave Tushan this time, Rongrong, please keep this for me."

Tu Shan Rongrong stared blankly at the golden dragon bell that had appeared out of thin air in her hands, her heart trembling violently.

"What do you mean by this, young master?!"

Rongrong recognized it as the Divine Dragon Bell, one of her big idiot's magical artifacts.

"Could it be...?"

Don't make wild guesses~

Haoyang helplessly rubbed Rongrong's little head. Sometimes being too smart is not a good thing; it can lead to a lot of delusions.

It's upsetting and heartbreaking.

"Although I have enemies I cannot defeat for the time being, I am invincible in this world."

Haoyang confidently rubbed Rongrong's little head.

Tu Shan Rongrong pressed her lips together, her eyes filled with worry. Just how strong must an enemy be, one that even Young Master Haoyang couldn't defeat...?

Could it be... the Third Young Master?!

"Alright, don't overthink it. I gave you this magical artifact in case Tushan gets caught up in the crossfire..."

Dongfang Haoyang looked up at the sun in the sky, pondered for a moment, and his expression became very serious.

"This is a necessary battle concerning the future of the world! If we win, both the human and demon races will be freed from this chessboard called 'The Circle'! The humans and demons there will no longer be anyone's experimental subjects, or guinea pigs to be sacrificed at any time!"

"What if we lose..."

Dongfang Haoyang looked at Rongrong's worried face, gradually approached her extremely cute face, then opened his heart and deeply kissed Rongrong's soft lips.

The silver thread vanished in an instant during the flight.

Letting go of the slightly out-of-breath, blushing little fox demon, Dongfang Haoyang smiled faintly and looked at Rongrong, whose face was flushed with embarrassment, in his arms.

"Hey Rongrong, you're the one who asked me to be your childhood sweetheart, you know. I've been trying to restrain myself, but at least you should have a little bit of faith in me, right?"

"You know, I'm your childhood sweetheart now~"

"So I won't lose."

"I have no regrets about fighting for the ones I love."

"I am the strongest right now!"

The boy's bright smile was imprinted in the girl's eyes. Rongrong pursed her lips tightly, tears welling up in her emerald eyes. After a moment, the girl hugged the cockroach-headed boy in front of her tightly!

"You big idiot! Don't die, I'll wait for you..."

"I won't keep you waiting too long~"

The two loosened their embrace and saw that Tu Shan Ya Ya, the little fox demon who had just flown over, had been slashed by a golden light, turning her masterpiece into a flat plain.

She came here fuming, looking for trouble!

"What have you been doing behind my back again?" Tu Shan Ya Ya pouted and crossed her arms, muttering quietly.

Before she could finish speaking, Dongfang Haoyang smiled, grabbed Ya Ya by the elbow, lifted her high, and then hugged her tightly in his arms.

"You pervert, you perverted cockroach! What are you doing? Rongrong is watching..."

Tu Shan Ya Ya's face turned bright red. The little white, chubby, short limbs twisted and turned, then she covered her blushing face and gave up struggling. Tu Shan Rong Rong covered her pink lips and chuckled.

"Here, take this. Don't miss me too much while I'm down the mountain these few days, okay?"

With a smile, Dongfang Haoyang handed the Purple Thunder Sword to Ya Ya.

Seeing the little fox demon's blank stare, she smiled and tapped Ya Ya's forehead.

"You stinky cockroach! Who, who would miss you? And why did you give me this broken magic weapon? How do you even use this...?"

"Don't give it back to me."

"Hehehe, that's my thing! Mmm~"

Their lips slowly parted, and Tu Shan Ya Ya, her face flushed, wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth.

"There is a trace of my magic power here. Ya Ya only needs to inject her own demon power to use it. The Purple Thunder Sword contains Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, so its power is self-evident. It is enough to protect yourself. Use it carefully and don't destroy Tushan."

"You stinky cockroach, you're so mean! And... are you leaving today...?"

Dongfang Haoyang saw the deep reluctance in the eyes of the two women, smiled slightly, and nodded gently.

"When I get back, live a good life in Tushan. Oh, and take care of that brat Yuechu for me."

"Young master..."

"Stinky cockroaches..."

Watching the boy's smiling figure leave, Ya Ya and Rong Rong stood there, their lips pursed. Although they wanted to stop him, they knew they couldn't get involved in such a battle right now.

Dongfang Haoyang was protecting them.

"Damn it! If only I were stronger!"

"Sister, don't worry. Since the young master has made a decision, he must be confident. Rongrong trusts him."

"Yeah, I believe him too, but when he comes back, I'm going to give him a good beating. Humph, he dared to show off in front of me! That cockroach is so annoying... I'm never talking to him again..."

In Tu Shan Rongrong's emerald eyes, which held a hint of a smile and helplessness, Tu Shan Ya Ya spoke while wiping away tears that kept seeping from the corners of her eyes. Her entire eye socket was red, and Ya Ya's body was trembling incessantly.

Holding her sister tightly in her arms, Rongrong gazed at the bright sun in the sky and sighed deeply.

"Don't worry, sister, Rongrong guarantees that the young master will be alright."

"Um……"

The giant golden eye atop Mount Tu slowly opened, surveying the entire region within its radius…

In fact, Rongrong and Yaya didn't know that Dongfang Haoyang, who seemed to have done nothing these past few days, had already used the giant eye in the sky to collect almost all the information and intelligence within the circle.

He has basically completed his plan.
