Chapter 34 Enemies Meet, Eyes Filled with Hatred (3000 words)
The moon hangs like a silver platter, and the sky is filled with countless stars.
At this time, most teachers and students in Notting Academy were either sitting cross-legged on their beds, cultivating, or sleeping, and the lights were basically off.
Only the dormitory where Yu Xiaogang lived was still brightly lit.
Yu Xiaogang, a slightly chubby, round-faced man with a full beard, was giving a lecture with great enthusiasm, occasionally writing a few large characters on the whiteboard.
Below him.
There are two women and one man listening to the lecture.
On the left, there are two girls who look only five or six years old. They have ordinary appearances, slightly thick lips, and their faces are eight or nine parts similar to Yu Xiaogang's. They look as if they were made from the same mold.
Although the man on the right has an ordinary appearance and looks only seven or eight years old, there is a maturity in his brows that a seven or eight-year-old child does not have. In particular, his eyes are like those of a gloomy middle-aged man who has experienced a major setback in life. He does not look like a child at all.
Their identities were none other than Yu Xiaogang's two daughters, Dayuer and Xiaoyuer, and his disciple Tang San.
Five years had passed since Ye Qinghe left Nottingham City.
Da Yu'er and Xiao Yu'er have grown up.
She grew from two babies in swaddling clothes into a little girl over five years old.
However, Tang San showed no signs of growing up and still looked like the seven-year-old he was when Ye Qinghe fed him the Youth-Preserving Pill.
While listening to Yu Xiaogang's lecture, his two daughters were already drowsy.
Although Tang San listened attentively, ever since he learned that he could no longer grow up, he had been gloomy all day long, and even studying the "invincible theory" no longer appealed to him.
After finally getting through Yu Xiaogang's lesson, Da Yu'er and Xiao Yu'er seemed to come alive all at once, burrowing into the blankets as if they didn't want to listen to the lesson anymore.
Yu Xiaogang smiled indulgently at this, then looked at Tang San and, seeing his pale face, immediately asked with concern, "Xiao San, are you alright?"
"Teacher, I'm fine." Tang San stood up, forced a smile, and shook his head.
Yu Xiaogang nodded. "Yes, it's good that you're alright. Shrek Academy will start in half a month. It takes about ten days to travel from Notting City to Soto City. Don't cultivate tonight. Go back and get some rest. Let's set off with Xiaowu first thing tomorrow morning. Once I've settled everything here, I'll come to Shrek to find you."
"Okay, teacher, you should get some rest too." Tang San said, then turned and walked out of the house.
Yu Xiaogang escorted Tang San to the door and watched him leave.
Watching Tang San's departing figure, Yu Xiaogang knew that her disciple was still struggling with the fact that he couldn't grow taller, and she felt quite helpless.
At first, he didn't really care about this matter, only thinking that Tang San's physical development was affected by doing too much heavy physical labor as a blacksmith.
Even after stopping blacksmithing and obtaining a second spirit ring, he still didn't grow taller, which speaks volumes.
Faced with Tang San's somewhat suspicious tone, he naturally couldn't answer "I don't know," thus jeopardizing his perfect image as a master in Tang San's eyes.
Therefore, he could only use the excuse that "the bonus to a Soul Master after obtaining a Soul Ring from a Beast Soul is higher than that from a Weapon Soul" to make excuses.
They then found some eight- or nine-year-old children who hadn't awakened their soul power and compared them to Tang San. Only then did they manage to send the still skeptical Tang San away.
But as the days went by, Tang San still showed no signs of growing taller, and it wasn't even a question of whether he would grow taller or not.
Rather, it's like they've frozen in time, as if their bodies have been permanently frozen at the age of seven.
Left with no other choice, Yu Xiaogang had to suppress her fear of incurring Tang Hao's wrath for "teaching Tang San to be useless" and contact Tang San's father, Tang Hao.
However, Tang Hao only asked whether Tang San's cultivation had been affected.
After learning that there was none, he glanced at Da Yu'er and Xiao Yu'er indifferently, said he would observe them for a few more years, and then left.
While Yu Xiaogang was completely baffled, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing Tang San grow older year by year, Yu Xiaogang, who had no clue what was going on, could only push the blame onto Ye Qinghe, whom he hated the most and who was probably dead somewhere.
The only saving grace is that Tang San's cultivation was indeed not affected.
Yu Xiaogang was quite pleased about this.
Meanwhile, a completely exhausted Tang San had already returned to the Seventh Dormitory.
Now, because of Ye Qinghe's departure, the Seventh Dormitory has completely become Xiao Wu and Tang San's backyard.
As soon as Tang San pushed open the door, a pretty figure wrapped her arms around his neck from behind.
Then came a startling sensation and the girl's faint fragrance, which swept over him at the same time, making Tang San blush.
"Alright, Xiao Wu, stop fooling around. Go get some rest."
Despite saying that, Tang San did not push Xiao Wu's hand away.
"It's still early, and tonight is our last day at Notting College. I don't want to go to bed so early."
Xiao Wu became even more unrestrained. Tang San smiled and said, "So this is your reason for touching me inappropriately?"
Xiao Wu said nonchalantly, "I just saw you were in a bad mood, so I wanted to distract you."
As she spoke, she didn't forget to put on a gentle expression and wink at Tang San.
Although Tang San knew that Xiao Wu was using her favorite honey trap, he was still very happy and touched. "You're getting more and more skilled at using your honey trap."
Since it was confirmed that his body could no longer grow, although the teachers and students in the academy dared not say anything to him because of his strength and talent, they secretly gave him a lot of dirty looks. Even the junior work-study students in the same dormitory secretly called him "Blue Silver Boy".
Only Xiao Wu never showed him any disdain from beginning to end. Whenever he was sad, she would try to attract his attention, constantly calling him "Little San" to cheer him up.
Although he would prefer Xiao Wu to call him Third Brother.
"Beauty? Are you talking about me? Hehehehe..."
Xiao Wu had no idea what Tang San was thinking. Upon hearing the word "beauty," she immediately let go of Tang San, cupped her pretty face, and giggled foolishly.
Tang San laughed and said, "This is not a compliment. Those who use this honey trap are usually vixens who specialize in seducing men."
"What?! You dare call me a vixen?! I'll bite you to death!"
Upon hearing the words "fox spirit," Xiao Wu became enraged, leaping up with bared teeth and claws, and lunging at Tang San.
The other work-study students were already used to this scene. They were used to Xiao Wu and Tang San's playful fights. However, it was strange to them that Xiao Wu, who was 1.7 meters tall, was throwing herself on Tang San, who was 1.3 meters tall.
The next morning, Tang San and Xiao Wu packed their things and prepared to set off for Soto City.
Before setting off, it's natural to do some shopping.
After all, Nottingham is a ten-day journey from Sotho, so we must prepare enough dry food and water.
Faced with this situation, Xiao Wu naturally went on a shopping spree...
Tang San also kept spoiling her. Anyway, they wouldn't be in a hurry to save half a day.
Just as they were enjoying their shopping trip, a young couple suddenly walked towards them.
The man appeared to be about the same age as Xiao Wu, with handsome features, dark eyebrows, thin lips, and an air of scholarly refinement. Coupled with his slender build and long legs, he could certainly be considered a handsome man. He wore a dark blue, form-fitting combat suit, with a pale purple dragon-patterned belt around his waist, inlaid with four pale purple gemstones, each about the size of a fingernail, shimmering with a faint luster—clearly not ordinary stones.
The girl appeared considerably older, nearing twenty. She wore a form-fitting female combat suit in the same color as the boy's, with purple hair cascading over her shoulders. She possessed a cold and noble air, unlike any mortal woman, resembling a fairy from the moon or a dragon princess from the Dragon Palace. Her overall demeanor was somewhat aloof, yet also possessed a fierce and endearing quality.
She only smiles when she looks at the boy.
They were none other than Ye Qinghe, whose martial soul had evolved into an evil tiger, and Dugu Yan, whose martial soul had evolved into a poisonous dragon.
Upon arriving in Notting City, they did not rush to Emperor Soul Village, but instead went to Notting City to purchase gifts.
Of course, this is only one aspect.
On the other hand, Ye Qinghe wanted to confirm something.
Did Tang San and Xiao Wu leave Notting City?
Unexpectedly, by sheer coincidence, we ran into them right here.
Leaving Xiao Wu aside for now, Tang San is exactly the same as when he fed her the Youth-Preserving Pill; he still looks like an ordinary seven-year-old child.
Tang San and Xiao Wu also noticed Ye Qinghe and Dugu Yan.
There's no way around it; a handsome man and a beautiful woman walking down the street like a perfect couple can't help but attract attention.
Although Ye Qinghe became much more handsome due to the evolution of his martial soul, it wasn't like Tang San's second awakening of the Blue Silver Emperor, which involved plastic surgery.
The original outline is still there, but it has grown out and the flaws have been reduced considerably.
If you encounter someone you know, you can still tell them apart if you observe carefully.
Not to mention Tang San, who already hated Ye Qinghe to the core.
"Ye Qinghe!"
Upon seeing Ye Qinghe, Tang San's pupils dilated sharply, and then his eyes turned bloodshot as he began to pant heavily. With a roar, he charged towards Ye Qinghe.
During the rage, he didn't forget to launch a variety of hidden weapons, such as silent sleeve darts.
[Resentment Points +888888]
[Resentment Points +1288888]
Tang San's favorability -40
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have been granted four chances to draw a prize. Tang San's favorability rating has reached its lower limit of -100. Please be careful.]
It has to be you, you little rascal.
Ye Qinghe chuckled inwardly; he had noticed Tang San long ago. Almost simultaneously with Tang San's launch of his hidden weapon, he also fired his Huayang Needle.
Clang, clang...
Amidst a series of metallic clanging sounds and sparks flying in the air, Tang San's hidden weapon and Huayang Needle landed on the ground simultaneously.
Seeing that Tang San dared to lay a hand on her beloved, Dugu Yan snorted coldly. As she leaped into the air, she raised her leg and kicked Tang San in the chest. Tang San flew several feet away and finally crashed heavily to the ground.
Like a boiled lobster, it hunched over, clutching its stomach, and collapsed to the ground, occasionally spitting out acidic liquid, in excruciating pain.
