Facing Lin Tianming who showed no will to fight and intentionally went easy on her, Ye Qingxue naturally succeeded in taking Lin Tianming's first kill.

Although Lin Tianming let Ye Qingxue attack as she pleased, it still cost her dearly.

Even so, Ye Qingxue really enjoyed tonight's game.

...

The next day.

Hiss~

Ye Qingxue felt as if she was about to be torn apart.

She limped down the corridor on the second floor of Hua Yufei's house.

"Ouch... I didn't feel it last night... but getting up this morning... hiss..."

Ye Qingxue gritted her teeth, planning to go back to her room and continue lying down.

Meng Xiyue had just gotten up and couldn't help but laugh when she saw Ye Qingxue's limping figure.

"What happened to you, Ye Qingxue? Didn't fall down, did you?"

Usually, this would have infuriated Ye Qingxue.

But thinking about her victory over her beloved Brother Tianming, she wasn't angry at all.

In fact, she felt a bit smug.

"Humph!"

Ye Qingxue put her index finger against her eyelid and pulled a face at Meng Xiyue, then continued limping toward her own room.

"It's so strange today... Why does Ye Qingxue, despite her limping, seem so happy?"

Meng Xiyue felt a bit baffled, not understanding what was up with Ye Qingxue today.

At that time, Feng Lan also happened to get up, and Ye Qingxue's limping figure just happened to appear at her door.

She was taken aback for a moment, surprised that Ye Qingxue seemed injured.

However, she didn't give it much thought.

Not wanting to deal with Ye Qingxue, she prepared to go downstairs.

Who would have thought that Ye Qingxue would seize the opportunity to say something triumphantly.

"Brother Tianming is mine, hmph!"

???

Feng Lan was totally confused, not understanding the meaning behind Ye Qingxue's words.

"Time to get up, juniors! I've specially made breakfast for you all, with buns, shumai, xiaolongbao, steamed dumplings, wontons, hand-grabbed pancakes, spring rolls, and all sorts of tasty things. Pick whatever you want to eat, come down quickly!"

Upon hearing Hua Yufei's call, the Goddess Reborns who were mostly awake already came out of their rooms one by one.

Lin Tianming was still fast asleep because he had been fighting all day yesterday and was dragged by Ye Qingxue to play games until the early hours of the morning.

Jiang Han and Tianshui were resting in their rooms due to injuries.

Ye Qingxue saw Lilith and the others come out too.

In order to show off her position as the Empress, she made faces at them under their bewildered gazes.

Lilith and the others were just as confused as Meng Xiyue and Feng Lan, not understanding what was wrong with Ye Qingxue today.

Considering that Ye Qingxue's way of thinking was usually unconventional, they ignored her and went downstairs to have breakfast.

Seeing them going downstairs one by one, Ye Qingxue assumed the posture of a victor who laughs last, treating them like defeated troops fleeing in disarray.

But after a short while, Ye Qingxue, whose stomach started growling, realized she needed to eat something too.

Last night's gaming session with Lin Tianming was so intense and exhausting that she was starving.

Limping to the railing of the second-floor corridor, Ye Qingxue leaned on the railing and called down to Hua Yufei and the others who were eating breakfast downstairs.

"Um... could someone bring me some breakfast upstairs? I'm not really able to come down right now!"

If Ye Qingxue hadn't made faces at them for fun just now, Feng Lan and the others might have been willing to bring food to the limping Ye Qingxue.

Now they did not want to bring breakfast to Ye Qingxue!

Senior Sister Yu Fei was about to bring food to Teacher Jiang Han and would gladly bring Ye Qingxue's as well.

But before she could speak, Huang Yiyi said, "Sure, Qingxue, what would you like?"

Starved, Ye Qingxue immediately responded, "Bring me a few shumai and a basket of steamed dumplings, please!"

"Alright, I'll bring it up to you now!"

Huang Yiyi obediently took several siu mai, then picked up a steamer of dumplings and brought it up for Ye Qingxue.

Huang Yiyi was followed by Hua Yufei and Wang Yanran.

They both also brought food up.

But it wasn't for Ye Qingxue, it was for the only two patients at home, Teacher Jiang Han and Teacher Tianshui.

Ye Qingxue thanked Huang Yiyi, who, like her, enjoyed sticking close to Lin Tianming.

"Thank you, Yiyi!"

"It's nothing, you are Tianming's friend, so you are my friend too!"

Huang Yiyi saw that Ye Qingxue was clinging to Lin Tianming all of yesterday, and she could tell that Ye Qingxue and Lin Tianming were on good terms.

For those who were close to Lin Tianming, Huang Yiyi would also love them by association.

After Wang Yanran and Hua Yufei finished bringing food to the two sick teachers, they came out. Today, Teacher Jiang Han and Teacher Tianshui could eat by themselves and no longer needed to be fed by them.

Passing by Ye Qingxue, Wang Yanran asked Hua Yufei.

"How strange... Why hasn't Junior Brother Tianming come down to eat? Is he still sleeping? Should we go wake him up?"

"Junior Brother Tianming fought hard to protect us and guard all the domains around the world yesterday, so it's perfectly normal for him to sleep in from exhaustion. Let's not disturb him; he will come down for food when he wakes up!"

The two elder sisters chatted and went downstairs, which made Ye Qingxue crack up with laughter.

Brother Tianming sleeping until now and not getting up is all my masterpiece!

While these little vixens weren't paying attention, Brother Tianming has already become my, Ye Qingxue's, easy prey!

Caught in her love-stricken state, she laughed, then suddenly slipped — with her preexisting limp, she let out a shriek.

Hiss~

Last night's battle had already torn at Ye Qingxue, and now her fall, especially in a split position...

The intense tearing sensation made Ye Qingxue's face scrunch up in pain.

Seeing that her breakfast had also fallen to the ground, she felt both pain and hunger.

Clenching her teeth for a few seconds, Ye Qingxue couldn't hold it in and started to cry with a burst of sobbing.

"It hurts... it hurts so much!"

Huang Yiyi was just about to go downstairs, but then Ye Qingxue stumbled and fell.

With her simple and kind nature, she quickly ran back to Ye Qingxue's side to help her up.

Below, Hua Yufei and the others also acted as if facing a great enemy, and quickly ran back up.

But seeing Ye Qingxue's aggrieved little expression, they felt a bit like laughing.

Pfft!

Meng Xiyue was the first to lose control and laughed out loud.

Feng Lan, Lilith, Alice, Sofia, and Lianghua all started laughing one by one.

"No... no laughing!"

Ye Qingxue's face puffed up with frustration.

Just now, she was gloating about claiming Lin Tianming's first blood and making fun of Feng Lan and the others.

But her joy didn't last long before her love-brained, foolish self became the butt of laughter for Feng Lan and the others.

Mo Jinghong, although also an elder sister, couldn't hold back her laughter like Hua Yufei and Wang Yanran could.

In no time, she too joined the younger sisters in hearty laughter.

While laughing, she also heartlessly apologized, "Sorry, I just couldn't help it, Junior Sister Qingxue, pfft!"

Hua Yufei and Wang Yanran actually also felt like laughing, but fortunately, they managed to restrain themselves.

Sister Sarah then said, "Yiyi, help Qingxue back to her room to lie down, I'll go downstairs and get her something to eat again!"

"Okay, Sister Sarah!"

Huang Yiyi was still very well-behaved and sensible.

She directly helped Ye Qingxue back to her room.

At this point, only Huang Yiyi and Sister Sarah didn't laugh at Ye Qingxue's unfortunate slip.

While everyone on Lin Tianming's side took a brief rest after the crisis had been lifted, divine-level Awakeners were beginning to emerge in greater numbers around the world.
