Time passed quietly.
Suddenly, clarity returned to Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.
"Huh?" Sea Witch Douluo looked at Zhu Zhuqing in surprise. "How could you wake up so quickly?" she asked, puzzled.
All of her power was in her illusion.
Her martial soul created an incredibly realistic illusion. Once someone fell into it, it was hard to wake up. If Sea Witch Douluo didn't withdraw her soul power, the person could be trapped in the illusion indefinitely.
This was the strength of Sea Witch Douluo.
In the past, even Titled Douluo who fell into her illusion had a hard time waking up. Even those with strong willpower needed some time.
But now, Zhu Zhuqing, clearly not a Titled Douluo, managed to wake up so quickly, which amazed her.
Zhu Zhuqing smiled lightly, "It's nothing. I just believe in Brother Bai."
With that, Zhu Zhuqing attacked.
"You win," Sea Witch Douluo conceded just as Zhu Zhuqing's claws were about to touch her.
All her power was in her illusion, and her combat ability wasn't particularly outstanding. She could sense Zhu Zhuqing's strength.
So, she conceded.
Moreover, she had planned to use the illusion to test Zhu Zhuqing. The surprise was that Zhu Zhuqing broke free so easily.
"Brother Bai, I won!" Zhu Zhuqing said sweetly to Su Bai.
Su Bai nodded and smiled, "I knew you could do it."
"Zhuqing, what did you see in the illusion?" Ning Rongrong asked eagerly.
The other women were also curious about what Zhu Zhuqing saw in the illusion that surprised Sea Witch Douluo so much.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't hide anything. "It showed me my child being killed."
The women's eyes widened. It seemed Zhu Zhuqing had seen something very unpleasant in the illusion.
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and laughed, "But such a thing is clearly impossible."
She looked at Su Bai with deep affection and smiled, "I believe in Brother Bai!"
The women all nodded in agreement. They had absolute trust in Su Bai.
That's why Zhu Zhuqing woke up so quickly.
In her eyes, something that couldn't possibly happen wouldn't affect her.
While Zhu Zhuqing explained, Sea Witch Douluo was also listening.
After hearing Zhu Zhuqing's explanation, she became curious about Su Bai.
She curiously looked at the handsome and charismatic Su Bai.
Could he really be so good that so many women were utterly devoted to him?
Su Bai didn't say anything. He just stepped forward and gently hugged Zhu Zhuqing.
The trust his women had in him was a testament to his success.
Zhu Zhuqing was right. As long as he was around, nothing bad would happen to them.
Seeing his women trust him so much made Su Bai very happy.
With Zhu Zhuqing's success, all the women had completed their trials.
Only Su Bai's trial remained.
That night,
Su Bai came to Zhu Zhuqing's room.
Zhu Zhuqing was surprised, "Brother Bai, tomorrow is your trial. Aren't you going to rest?"
"I missed you," Su Bai smiled as he entered the room.
Zhu Zhuqing closed the door, her lips curving up slightly.
Su Bai pulled Zhu Zhuqing into his arms and kissed her.
He was deeply moved by Zhu Zhuqing's words today.
So, he decided to reward Zhu Zhuqing.
As for the trial?
It's just a Titled Douluo. He was confident he'd pass.
And he didn't need three days. One day was enough.
While kissing, Su Bai's hands weren't idle. They instinctively moved to Zhu Zhuqing's chest.
At the same time, he began to undress Zhu Zhuqing.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's black stockings, Su Bai was stunned.
He finally understood that his wives weren't always aware of his return.
They were always prepared, wearing such outfits beneath their clothes.
They did this to make things convenient for him.
Their thoughtfulness deeply moved Su Bai.
He decided he must cherish them well.
And he would start with Zhu Zhuqing.
Noticing Su Bai's gaze, Zhu Zhuqing blushed.
She hadn't expected Su Bai to discover this secret.
But Su Bai didn't dwell on it.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's alluring figure, his desire surged.
His hands moved towards Zhu Zhuqing.
"Mm~" Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but moan, stimulating Su Bai even more.
His actions sped up.
Before long,
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't take it anymore and said, "Brother Bai, please, I can't take it."
Hearing this, Su Bai whispered something in Zhu Zhuqing's ear.
Her face turned red, but she obediently lay down, showing her perfectly rounded hips.
Seeing this,
Su Bai couldn't hold back anymore.
He grabbed Zhu Zhuqing's waist and thrust forward.
The next morning,
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's torn black stockings and her perfect figure, Su Bai's desire surged again.
He gently caressed Zhu Zhuqing, who also felt aroused.
So, Su Bai pinned Zhu Zhuqing down again.
After another round,
they got up and washed.
After breakfast,
Su Bai began his divine trial.
First, he had to challenge Sea Horse Douluo.
At the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar,
"Sir," Sea Horse Douluo greeted Su Bai respectfully.
Su Bai nodded lightly.
Then, he unleashed his aura.
The powerful aura instantly filled the area.
What!
Sea Horse Douluo was shocked.
Su Bai's powerful aura almost suffocated him.
Such a powerful aura, even stronger than that of the Grand Worshipper.
An Ultimate Douluo?
No, it was more than that.
The Grand Worshipper was an Ultimate Douluo, but his aura wasn't this strong.
A god?
But Su Bai didn't have any divinity.
So, Su Bai wasn't a god yet.
But,
he was beyond Sea Horse Douluo's capability.
So, Sea Horse Douluo smiled bitterly, "Sir, there's no need to fight. I admit defeat."
"Oh?" Su Bai was surprised.
He hadn't expected Sea Horse Douluo to concede so readily without a fight.
Su Bai asked, "Is this within the rules?"
Sea Horse Douluo replied, "The fifth trial requires us seven guardians' approval. With your strength, there's no need for further proof."
Su Bai understood.
No wonder his wives' battles had ended with their opponents conceding despite still being able to fight.
In Sea Witch Douluo's case, Zhu Zhuqing simply broke the illusion and won.
It made sense now. Even if Sea Witch Douluo's combat ability wasn't great, she was still a Titled Douluo and should have had more tricks.
But after Sea Horse Douluo's explanation, it all became clear.
