"So what happened in the end?" Ling Zhenfei asked.

"In the end, of course, we chased them away. Our Ittō-ryū is much more formidable than them." Hoshino Junka seemed very pleased.

"So can you untie me now?" Ling Zhenfei said, looking at the ropes on his hands.

Hoshino Junka said, "No way, we're a man and a woman alone in a room. If I don't guard against you a bit, wouldn't I be in danger?"

"You're overthinking it. I won't do anything to you. You can sleep on the bed at night, but can you at least move me to a chair? I don't need to sleep."

Hoshino Junka laughed, "You're dreaming. I'm having you sleep on the bed with me tonight."

"We haven't known each other long enough to do that, right?" Ling Zhenfei said in surprise.

"Is Japan really this open?" Ling Zhenfei was truly astonished. But thinking of the Island Nation love films, such scenarios indeed appeared, perhaps inspired by true events.

That night, Ling Zhenfei and Hoshino Junka indeed lay on the same bed, but Hoshino Junka slept on one side while Ling Zhenfei was tied on the other.

Ling Zhenfei was no longer tied at all four corners but had his hands bound to the headboard and his feet to the footboard.

This position made Ling Zhenfei very uncomfortable, making him slightly angry. He thought to himself that someday, he'd let Hoshino Junka feel what it's like.

Hoshino Junka changed into a very beautiful nightgown. This witch went for a cute style, resembling a rabbit.

Hoshino Junka's skin also resembled a rabbit's, white with a hint of red, looking very unique.

Watching Hoshino Junka sleep, Ling Zhenfei's breathing became heavy. He knew he couldn't sleep tonight. The battle at the door during the day was still fresh in his memory.

Although Ling Zhenfei really wanted to heal his wounds while staying with Hoshino Junka and then leave when he recovered.

Although he was bound by Hoshino Junka now, Ling Zhenfei could untie the ropes anytime, which was crucial.

Moreover, being in Hoshino Junka's house made Ling Zhenfei feel very safe, but the battle between both sides made him uneasy, so he decided to take action.

Lying on the bed, but his soul out-of-body, Ling Zhenfei's Divine Sense wandered the Hoshino family estate, searching for Hoshino Meigetsu. Some matters had to be discussed with her.

As the Celestial Maiden of Ittō-ryū, Hoshino Meigetsu should be a person with significant influence.

Hoshino Meigetsu's residence was easy to find because it wasn't far from Hoshino Junka's. Both lived in a two-story building.

In the Hoshino family, there were no high-rise buildings, with houses no more than two or three stories, and Hoshino Meigetsu lived on the upper floor of the building.

Ling Zhenfei's Divine Sense extended over Hoshino Meigetsu. Currently, Ling Zhenfei's Divine Sense could directly infiltrate another's Divine Sense.

Last time, Ling Zhenfei had experimented with Guoguo, infiltrating Guoguo's Divine Sense to send a message, and Guoguo could perceive it.

This time, Ling Zhenfei also infiltrated Hoshino Meigetsu's Divine Sense, conveying a message: "Miss Hoshino, I'm waiting for you at the pavilion outside."

Feeling Ling Zhenfei's message, Hoshino Meigetsu showed a surprised expression, clearly puzzled by the sensation.

"Who are you, and how did you enter my Divine Sense?"

The surprise was on Ling Zhenfei when Hoshino Meigetsu's Divine Sense relayed a message back, evident of her strong abilities, at least in cultivating her Divine Sense.

"Don't worry about who I am. I have very important matters to discuss with you. Meet at the pavilion in ten minutes, and all will be clear then."

Ling Zhenfei knew Hoshino Meigetsu had received his message, so he gently untied the ropes on his hands.

Ling Zhenfei moved so lightly that he didn't disturb Hoshino Junka. This Little Witch, though somewhat mischievous, was a bit naive, thinking a rope could bind Ling Zhenfei, which was too innocent of her.

Ling Zhenfei quietly left the room, reached the first floor, and silently opened the door to step out.

The pavilion Ling Zhenfei referred to was between Hoshino Junka's and Hoshino Meigetsu's houses, discovered while Ling Zhenfei used his Divine Sense to find Hoshino Meigetsu.

Ling Zhenfei arrived first at the pavilion. He knew Hoshino Meigetsu would surely come, given her competitive nature.

Not far from the pavilion was a small pond, reminding Ling Zhenfei of the Watanabe family's pavilion where many events occurred.

Thinking back, everything seemed like a dream, especially Watanabe Hideaki's sword dance on the ice, as beautiful as a painting.

At that moment, Ling Zhenfei heard a sound from afar, knowing Hoshino Meigetsu was approaching, arriving as promised.

Ling Zhenfei, having arranged to meet Hoshino Meigetsu tonight, was prepared to bring closure.

Now he was a thorn in the side of the Watanabe family, and the Hoshino family also disliked him, especially after saving Watanabe Kazushi, which fueled their animosity.

So when Ling Zhenfei sought out Hoshino Meigetsu this time, he mentally prepared himself.

Hoshino Meigetsu, whom he once saved, had been unpredictable, once even holding a knife threateningly. Who knew if she'd be aggressive again tonight.

Hoshino Meigetsu dressed in white, looking like a graceful Fairy, holding a sword.

Indeed, Hoshino Meigetsu was extraordinary; as the Celestial Maiden of Ittō-ryū, her strength was exceptional, and she frequently changed weapons.

Last time she wielded a folding fan, mastering its use so skillfully that even the Watanabe family didn't expect their Celestial Maiden to get injured.

Hoshino Meigetsu reached the outside of the pavilion and saw Ling Zhenfei standing there, back towards her, making her curious.

"Li Hao, was it you who summoned me?"

Ling Zhenfei slowly turned, "Yes, I was the one who called you here."

Upon seeing Ling Zhenfei, Hoshino Meigetsu's expression stunned, looking somewhat bewildered.

The next second, Hoshino Meigetsu dashed into the pavilion and hugged Ling Zhenfei directly.

This left Ling Zhenfei astonished, not knowing what was happening, only affirming his thoughts—Hoshino Meigetsu was indeed unpredictable.

She had once tried to kill him, yet now unexpectedly embraced him. Ling Zhenfei couldn't comprehend it.

Smelling the faint fragrance on Hoshino Meigetsu, feeling her softness and warmth, even their Northern Spiritual Energy merged as one.
