Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

Chapter 109 Street vendors are unsafe
……

"Lost?" Xuanming asked.

Ning Rongrong was stunned. "Yes! I'm lost! I'm lost!"

“Seven Treasures City is right next to Heavenly Dou City. This is the Barak Kingdom, and the two places are almost a month apart. Even I couldn’t have gotten lost here,” Xuanming said.

"how did you do that?"

“Uh…” Ning Rongrong was a little embarrassed.

"Actually, I went out to gain experience and accidentally got lost."

"A pure support Soul Master, going out to train alone?" Xuanming asked.

Are you trying to insult my intelligence?

“I…” Ning Rongrong lowered her head, not daring to meet Xuan Ming’s gaze.

“I had a fight with my dad, and in a moment of impulse, I... ran away.”

"I originally wanted to go to Tiandou City to find you, but you weren't there. The people at the academy said you had already left, so I... came out."

"Run away from home?" Xuanming said.

"Hmm..." Ning Rongrong blushed, lowered her head, and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

She had run away from home before, but each time she would run to Tiandou City or to Tiandou Royal Academy to find Xuanming.

This is the first time I've ever traveled this far.

"If you've had enough fun, let's head back early." Xuanming didn't say anything more and continued heading towards Shrek Academy.

Ning Rongrong was spoiled by Jian Gu and Ning Fengzhi since she was a child. Even Ning Fengzhi could not control her most of the time. She was only a little obedient in front of him. The difference in treatment was quite obvious.

Seeing that Xuanming didn't scold her, Ning Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief. "Brother Xuanming, where are you going?"

“Shrek,” Xuanming said.

"Qin Ming had mentioned to me a few times before that if I happened to pass through Soto City, I could come and take a look if I had the chance."

Qin Ming is currently serving as the leader and teacher of the Royal Fighting Team. He is a Tian Dou-level teacher in the Tian Dou Royal Academy, second only to the three Education Committee members, and is being groomed by the three Education Committee members as their future successor.

In order to allow him to shine to the fullest extent, Xue Qinghe also included him in the Royal Fighting Team, making him the nominal captain.

However, he doesn't participate in the Royal Fighting Team's training or team battles, so he's basically an outsider.

Not only is his fighting style completely unsuitable for having teammates, but his training is also quite unique. He only spends a small portion of his time receiving professional training at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and most of the time, he is either at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well or the Great Soul Arena.

Of course, I still have three days each month to go to Yuexuan to cultivate my mind and body.

After nearly six years, Tang Yuehua has finally calmed his mind. He can now perfectly control the restlessness of his beast spirit and will no longer let his beastly nature invade his humanity as before.

……

After passing through vast farmlands, Xuanming and his two companions arrived at the small village where Shrek Academy was located.

At this point, there were fewer than twenty people left in line.

"Go." Xuanming looked at Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and went to join the queue.

"Brother Xuanming, who is she?" Ning Rongrong finally couldn't help but ask.

"We met him on the way." Xuanming walked to the shade of a tree at the entrance of the village, took out a chair, and sat down.

Ning Rongrong wanted to ask more questions, but seeing Xuan Ming's expression, she knew she wouldn't get any answers, so she simply ran over and joined Zhu Zhuqing in line.

"Why is he here...?"

Tang San and Xiao Wu, who were at the front of the line, were drawn to the commotion behind them. Turning around, they saw Xuan Ming sitting under the shade of a tree at the village entrance.

Whether it's her aura that keeps strangers at bay or her unique appearance, she attracts attention wherever she goes.

"It seems a friend of his told him about Shrek Academy, so he came to check it out," Arou said.

"I'll go ask, you guys line up."

As she spoke, Arou walked towards Xuanming under the shade of the tree.

"Xiao Wu, how old is he?" Tang San couldn't help but ask. "I think he's fourteen," Xiao Wu replied.

"What about your cultivation level?" Tang San asked.

“I didn’t ask. He said last night that he had just acquired his fourth spirit ring,” Xiao Wu said.

"It really is the Soul Sect..." Tang San's expression was somewhat indescribable.

How could the Soul Sect possibly exert pressure on him?

Even that Soul Emperor at the admissions office who just flashed his Soul Ring couldn't put this kind of pressure on him...

"Xiao San, don't do anything rash and hit him," Xiao Wu said with some concern.

"He hit you, it was just one slap!"

Tang San's eye twitched slightly. "Do I look like the kind of person who can't see the situation clearly?"

He appears to be full of openings and completely unprepared, but if he activates his Purple Demon Eye to look for an opportunity, he will find himself at a loss!

At first glance, it seems full of flaws, but in reality, it is flawless!

This is a real master!

It's definitely not just a showy facade with empty skills!
The recruitment team moved quickly, and soon Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong had also completed their registration and were ready to move on to the next stage.

"Mommy, we can go in now." Xiao Wu skipped over.

Xuanming and Arou stood up, put away their chairs, and followed Xiaowu inside.

Upon seeing Arou and Xiaowu, who seemed to know Xuanming, Ning Rongrong couldn't contain her curiosity and went over to find out what was going on.

Xiao Wu was also very outgoing; after only a few words, she was already hanging out with Ning Rongrong.

Zhu Zhuqing wasn't quite used to the lively atmosphere and quietly walked to Xuanming's side.

"Sausages for sale! Sausages for sale!"

As they approached the central square of Shrek Academy, a soft voice suddenly rang out, and a man with a full beard was pushing a cart and hawking his wares not far away.

"Sausage?" Xiao Wu touched her stomach, then turned around and grabbed A Rou's hand, shaking it like a spoiled kitten.

"Mommy~ I'm hungry~"

Arou patted Xiaowu's head gently, with a mix of helplessness and affection, "Okay, I'll go buy it for you."

Seeing this, Ning Rongrong gently tugged at Xuanming's sleeve, her voice barely audible: "Brother Xuanming, I'm hungry too."

Xuanming took out two boxes of Yuexuan dried meat. "Eat this. Street stalls aren't safe."

Xiao Wu looked at the jerky in her hand, then glanced at the steaming, fragrant cart not far away, and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "But that one's still warm..."

Xuanming glanced at Xiaowu.

Xiao Wu was startled and exclaimed, "Brother Xuanming is right! Street vendors are not safe!"

Tang San was taken aback, seemingly surprised by Xiao Wu's affectionate way of addressing Xuan Ming.

After all, the relationship between these three people was so strange that he still couldn't understand it.

Xiao Wu is sometimes terrified of Xuan Ming, and sometimes she's not afraid at all.

But this fear isn't the kind of fear of bad people; it's more of a tension and worry, like the instinctive shrinking of a small animal when facing a powerful predator, but the next second it might relax because of a single glance from the other party, and even approach without any scruples.

"What kind of meat is this jerky made of?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.

"It's pretty delicious."

"Rabbit meat," Xuanming said.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's eyes widened instantly, her eyes reddened immediately, and large tears welled up in her eyes, on the verge of bursting into tears.

Feeding rabbits rabbit meat?

Are you even human?!
