Jingliu stood in the corner, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes beneath his silver hair.
In the evening, Chen Xiao went out alone to look at the villa. He hadn't gone far when he sensed someone following him.
“Mirror Flow?” He turned around and saw the silver-haired swordsman holding his longsword, standing quietly under the streetlight.
"I... I should go." Jingliu's voice was still cold, but there was a hint of reluctance in his eyes.
Chen Xiao nodded and took out the protection of the ice sword: "The contract cannot be broken, but I can use the contract to send you back to your original world. Of course, if you take this sword, I will not be able to control you anymore."
Jingliu didn't take it, but looked directly into his eyes: "I have a question."
"You want to ask me why, out of so many women, you're the only one who doesn't have a relationship with me?" Chen Xiao had already seen through her thoughts.
Jingliu nodded slightly; her profile, bathed in moonlight, was breathtakingly beautiful.
“Because you are special.” Chen Xiao took a step closer. “I always felt that you were a cold person who wouldn’t easily accept something like this.”
“You can use the power of the Dark Bible,” Mirror Stream pointed out.
Chen Xiao shook his head: "The Dark Bible can indeed control a woman's mind, but I don't use it often." His eyes deepened, "Unless it's a specific situation, like women like Yukikaze and Rinko whose values are so warped that they want to sacrifice themselves as prostitutes..."
Jingliu raised an eyebrow in surprise, then turned his face away: "And what about me?"
“Unless you are willing,” Chen Xiao said seriously, “I will not use the power of the Dark Bible.”
Despite his "heartthrob aura," Chen Xiao knew very well that it couldn't make women truly fall for him. What he wanted was genuine submission, not puppets controlled by his abilities.
Jingliu suddenly stepped forward and hugged Chen Xiao. This action stunned Chen Xiao—the Sword Master, who was always as cold as ice, would actually take the initiative to hug someone?
“Anyway, you’re already an exile…” Jingliu’s voice muffled against his chest, “You’ve never had a home to speak of. Before you leave… grant your wish.”
Before Chen Xiao could react, Jing Liu quickly released him, reverting to his aloof expression: "If you think anyone will do this, you're sorely mistaken! It's just because..."
She couldn't finish her sentence.
Chen Xiao had already kissed her lips. The power of the Dark Bible flowed between them, but it was not a forced contract; rather, it was a gentle resonance.
"I know," Chen Xiao said softly as their lips parted, "it's just because it's me."
Jingliu's ears turned red. She was awkwardly pulled into a nearby hotel by Chen Xiao, her silver hair shining like a galaxy in the night.
The two went to a five-star hotel.
When the two united, the demonic entity within the mirror fluid and Chen Xiao's Dark Bible produced a wondrous reaction. Silver-white sword energy intertwined with dark golden magic, forming a dazzling energy vortex within the room.
The funeral of roses.

Jingliu slumped in Chen Xiao's arms, her silver hair scattered across the sheets. She had never imagined that she would form such a deep bond with a human.
"Do you still want to leave now?" Chen Xiao gently stroked her long hair.
Jingliu was silent for a moment: "I will leave, because I am destined to wander. Keep the sword. Whenever you miss me or need me, I will appear at any time."
"Ah."
After Jing Liu left, Chen Xiao wandered alone through the city streets.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the city.
But a vague emptiness lingered in his heart. Although he could summon Jingliu at any time, Chen Xiao still hoped that Jingliu would have her own path as an exile, after all, she had the freedom that belonged to the Immortal Boat Sword God.
It's okay to give her some space.
As he turned a corner, a loud argument caught his attention.
"Sister Otome! You go out with Brother Tree every day, do you know I'll get jealous?" A petite girl with pigtails stomped her feet angrily, her cheeks flushed with rage.
Standing opposite her was a gentle girl with long pink hair, smiling helplessly: "But Rinka, that's your own brother..."
"So what?!" The girl named Rinka's eyes reddened. "We grew up together, what right do you have to take my brother away!"
Chen Xiao's Dimensional Eye quietly activated, taking in all the information about the two girls.
"I see, that's interesting." Chen Xiao smiled knowingly.
What both Chen Xiao cared about even more was that they were both still virgins.
"What are you two arguing about?" Chen Xiao stepped forward, his voice as gentle as a spring breeze.
The girl whirled around, her long pink hair tracing a graceful arc in the air. When she saw Chen Xiao's face clearly, her cheeks flushed instantly: "N-nothing, I'm sorry, I made this classmate laugh..."
Rinka was completely stunned, her mouth slightly agape: "W-it's actually the legendary Chen Xiao... the number one male god in high school, a figure famous throughout Chiba Prefecture..."
Chen Xiao smiled slightly, his aura of "Golden Body" and "Heartthrob" causing the two girls' hearts to race involuntarily. "Looks like I'm somewhat famous." He sighed, feigning distress, "But right now, I'm more concerned about why these two beautiful ladies are arguing so much..."
The woman hurriedly waved her hand: "It's just some housework..."
"This isn't a family matter!" Lin Hua suddenly grabbed Chen Xiao's sleeve, her eyes flashing with a strange light. "Junior Chen Xiao, tell me! If your girlfriend was always sticking to your sister, wouldn't you be jealous?"
"Rinka!" Otome blushed, her ears turning bright red. "Don't talk nonsense!"
A hint of amusement flashed in Chen Xiao's eyes.
He gently took Rinka's hand, pulling her away with tenderness but without any room for resistance: "I think this issue might need to be discussed in a more private space." He glanced at his watch. "It's almost dinner time, how about I treat you both to a meal?"
Rinka immediately nodded excitedly, while Otome, after hesitating for a moment, was also persuaded by Chen Xiao's irresistible aura.
Chen Xiao led Otome and Rinka to a high-end French restaurant.
Under the crystal chandelier, the two girls seemed a little uneasy, but gradually relaxed because of Chen Xiao's gentleness and consideration.
"Junior... this place is too expensive, isn't it?" Otome said softly, her long pink hair falling onto the exquisite menu.
Rinka looked around excitedly: "Wow! This is my first time in a place like this!"
Chen Xiao gracefully pulled out chairs for them: "Don't worry, this is nothing to me." He snapped his fingers, and a waiter immediately brought out champagne that had been prepared in advance.
As they enjoyed the food and wine, the two young women's cheeks gradually flushed.
Chen Xiao didn't even unleash his Golden Rule and Charismatic Aura.
“Senior Otome,” Chen Xiao suddenly leaned closer, gently lifting her chin with his fingers, “you just said… you were jealous of your sister because of family matters?”
"Ah...that..." Otome's breathing quickened, caught off guard by Chen Xiao's sudden close contact.
Seeing this, Rinka immediately pouted: "Junior, you're so biased! I was the one who started first..."
Chen Xiao stroked Rinka's face with his other hand: "What? Little Rinka wants my attention too?"
The two girls held their breath at the same time, their bodies trembling slightly under Chen Xiao's deliberate teasing.
After dinner, Chen Xiao "thoughtfully" offered to take them home. When they reached a secluded park, he suddenly stopped.
"Junior?" Otome turned around in confusion.
Chen Xiao's lips curled into a wicked smile: "I suddenly thought of something... The scenery here is quite nice, how about we do something more interesting?"
Before they could react, Chen Xiao had already activated the power of the Dark Bible. Dark golden runes shimmered in the night, and the two girls' eyes instantly became glazed.
"Junior...junior..." Rinka's legs went weak, and she unconsciously leaned towards Chen Xiao.
The woman completely abandoned her usual reserve and took the initiative to hug Chen Xiao's neck: "0.4 Please...please be with me..."
Fu.

When it was all over, the two girls collapsed into Chen Xiao's arms, their eyes filled with infatuation and attachment.
Chen Xiao suddenly sneered: "You all say you love He Shu so much, so why are you still with me in the end?"
These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over them. Otome and Rinka looked up abruptly, their faces turning deathly pale.
"No...no!" Rinka shook her head frantically, "I just..."
Otome covered her mouth, tears welling in her eyes: "How could I... with Itsuki..."
"Hypocrisy." Chen Xiao coldly interrupted them, the power of the Dark Bible gathering in his palm. "I'm only here to expose your true colors. Now, to me, you're nothing more than two more female slaves!"
The runes of the love-binding spell instantly pierced the hearts of the two girls. They curled up in pain, but soon, the confusion and guilt in their eyes were replaced by fervor.
"Lord Chen Xiao..." Lin hugged Chen Xiao's arm, completely infatuated, "I...I only love you..."
The maiden also knelt devoutly at Chen Xiao's feet: "Please forgive my previous foolishness... Compared to you, the tree is nothing!"
Chen Xiao stroked their hair with satisfaction: "You guys are really... hopeless. Alright~ Let's go, I'll take you home, my mom really wants to see you."
Chapter 72 From the Pure Rondo to the Great Evil Division
The next morning, sunlight streamed into the bedroom through the gaps in the curtains.
Chen Xiao opened his eyes and found Otome and Rinka curled up on either side of him like two docile kittens. A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth as he gently pulled his numb arms away.
"Master..." Rinka groggily opened her eyes, but immediately snapped awake upon seeing Chen Xiao, her eyes flashing with a morbid infatuation. "Good morning! Let me help you get dressed!"
Otome immediately stood up, her long pink hair disheveled and draped over her shoulders: "No, I should do it! Rinka, you're so clumsy!"
Chen Xiao let the two women vie to dress him, his heart unmoved. Last night's pleasure was nothing more than a game to him, and these two women were merely pawns in that game.
"That's enough." He said calmly, and the two immediately stopped what they were doing and stood respectfully to the side. "Today I'm taking you to see someone."
"Are we going to see Kazuki?" A shadow of gloom flashed in Rinka's eyes. "That good-for-nothing is not worthy of being compared to Master!"
Otome also showed a look of disgust: "The thought that I actually had feelings for someone like that makes me feel nauseous."
Chen Xiao watched their reactions with satisfaction. This was precisely the effect of the Dark Bible's emotional manipulation technique—distorting all their feelings for He Shu into absolute loyalty to Chen Xiao. However, Chen Xiao deliberately didn't make them hate He Shu.
"Get dressed and come with me," he commanded.
Half an hour later, Chen Xiao returned home with Otome and Rinka, who were dressed up. Misako was arranging flowers in the living room when she saw the three of them enter, and the scissors in her hand fell to the ground with a "clatter".
"Xiao'er, who are these two...?" Misako barely managed to maintain her composure, her mind racing with thoughts. She had brought back so many women yesterday, and now she had brought two more this morning, as if she could pick up girlfriends from outside anytime.
"Mom, these are Otome and Rinka," Chen Xiao casually introduced. "They'll be staying with us temporarily."
Misako took a deep breath, pulled Chen Xiao into the kitchen, and whispered, "You didn't come home all night, were you with these two girls? Do you know who they are? You just brought them home like that?"
