Douluo Continent: I can nurture soul beasts and even perform super evolution.

Chapter 31 What are you so excited about, you're just a dowry maid?
"Hmm, it does have a unique charm."

Su Wen finished putting her hair up, looked around, and her expression was slightly surprised.

This jade hairpin is indeed a perfect match for Ma Xiaotao. Ning Tian has a sharp eye. I just don't know if she carries this hairpin with her or if she prepared it in advance. After all, this is too much of a coincidence... Wait a minute!
Su Wen was stunned for a moment.

It feels like I've been set up!
He glanced suspiciously at Yan Shaozhe not far away. The old fox was chatting casually with Bamboo Douluo, but he felt that Yan Shaozhe's movements were slightly stiff as his suspicious gaze fell upon him, as if he were somewhat guilty...

"Is it really good-looking?" Ma Xiaotao's pretty face flushed, and she stared at Su Wen with some anticipation in her beautiful eyes.

"It looks great!" Su Wen nodded emphatically.

She looks even better when she smiles.

Her long, narrow eyes were as alluring as a fox's, but unfortunately, the owner of those eyes was rather dull-witted, and her personality was more like that of a female leopard—fiery and straightforward.

"..."

Ning Tian watched this scene with a hint of envy in her beautiful eyes.

Su Wen's skillful hair-tying technique was definitely not something she had done only once or twice.

She looked at Ma Xiaotao, and sure enough, fools sometimes have good luck...

Moreover, Ma Xiaotao's figure is indeed far superior to hers. With her stunning beauty and amazing figure, it's hard to imagine any man not being moved. Ning Tian's beautiful eyes suddenly dimmed. She's too smart. Could this be a disadvantage?

……

"Ahem, Xiao Wen, is something bothering you?"

on the way back.

Yan Shaozhe felt Su Wen's gaze and felt extremely uncomfortable, as if ants were crawling all over him. He cautiously approached, coughed awkwardly twice, and asked.

"..."

Su Wen glanced at him. "Dean Yan, you didn't betray me, did you?"

"how come!"

Yan Shaozhe spoke with righteous indignation.

Su Wen stared at him indifferently.

"Ahem, Xiao Wen, this really isn't my fault. It's just that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School gave too much! And Elder Mu knows about this too, and it was approved by him!" Yan Shaozhe scratched his head, seemingly realizing he couldn't hide it any longer, so he simply revealed everything, and incidentally betrayed Elder Mu as well.

He was really afraid that Su Wen would be disgusted, so he went to the Soul Guidance Department.

That would truly be losing the watermelon while picking up a sesame seed.

"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

Su Wen suddenly realized.

It seems that the current sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is no ordinary person; to dare to place such a bet, what courage!

"Xiao Wen, I..." Yan Shaozhe was on the verge of tears, wanting to explain.

But Su Wen interrupted him.

"It started after that trip to the far north?"

“No, that’s not it.” Yan Shaozhe shook his head. “Two months ago, he learned by chance that you were going to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain your third spirit ring, so he gave the Martial Soul Department 20 million gold spirit coins, hoping to create a ‘chance encounter’ to deepen the bond between you two…”

"How much?!" Su Wen was stunned.

“Cough cough, twenty million…” Yan Shaozhe repeated.

"That's all." Su Wen said expressionlessly.

He retracted his previous statement.

He's more than just charismatic; he's a true tycoon, my dear future father-in-law...

"Give me half later." Su Wen suddenly remembered something.

“Okay!” Yan Shaozhe quickly nodded.

"Oh, right, there's something else." Su Wen hesitated for a moment, "Dean, do you know a student in the outer academy named Jiang Nannan?"

“Jiang Nannan? Of course I know her.” Yan Shaozhe nodded.

"There were only a few commoner disciples in the outer academy to begin with, and this child was quite talented. It's said that her looks were also exceptional. The number of male students pursuing her was enough to stretch from the east gate to the west gate of Shrek City, so I remember her quite well," he recalled. "Even Xu Sanshi, one of the most talented students in the outer academy right now, is said to have abandoned his family's dignity and shamelessly pursued Jiang Nannan all day long." Su Wen clearly sensed a hint of disdain in Yan Shaozhe's words.

Come to think of it, this handsome older man was quite the ladies' man in his youth, a true Casanova.

"I heard that Jiang Nannan comes from a poor family? Her mother is seriously ill and bedridden, her life hanging by a thread?" Su Wen asked tentatively.

"Is that so?" Yan Shaozhe was taken aback.

"..."

Su Wen remained silent.

That's right.

Given that Jiang Nannan is such a precious disciple, especially since she comes from a commoner background (clean background), Su Wen doesn't believe that Shrek Academy knows all this and remains indifferent.

Yan Shaozhe was not about to let go of such a good opportunity to win people's hearts.

Then there is only one possibility.

Jiang Nannan may have been driven by pride, or perhaps she was simply unaware that her talent was so exceptional that Shrek Academy would place a bet on her, so she never mentioned it to the academy.

It may also be mentioned that her teacher did not take it seriously and did not report it at all, which led to Yan Shaozhe being unaware of it. As a result, Jiang Nannan mistakenly believed that the higher-ups were unwilling to help her, and thus sadly decided to sacrifice herself to save her mother.

However, now that we know about this...

Su Wen raised the corners of her mouth.

That will certainly not allow your Xuanming Sect to succeed again. The disciples of Shrek Academy should not be troubled by such matters.

Jiang Nannan's mother had a heart problem. The original novel only said that the largest local clinic couldn't cure it, but whether it could be cured or not... was probably up to the Xuanming Sect. The Xuanwu Divine Pill was probably not the only solution.

Besides, even if he couldn't do it, he could simply invite Elder Zhuang over!

A level 95 Super Douluo, one of the top three healing experts on the continent, couldn't he cure a minor heart condition?
Su Wen smiled and said, "I really love doing good deeds..."

……

the other side.

The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's team also headed north, crossing the Star Dou Great Forest, with their destination being the Xuanming Sect of the Heavenly Soul Empire. It was true that they were going to the Xuanming Sect to discuss business, but while meeting Su Wen was real, discussing business was just a coincidence.

Seeing Ning Tian looking dejected all the way, his beautiful eyes glancing back every now and then, Wu Feng gritted her teeth and said, "I'm sorry, Young Sect Master, I had no choice but to resort to this tactic to save you from your dire situation..."

She sneaked up to Bamboo Douluo's side.

He whispered a few words in my ear.

Just as she was filled with smug joy, Zhu Douluo stared at Wu Feng with a strange expression.

"Why do you, a mere dowry maid, have to worry about so much?"

The air suddenly fell silent.

Wu Feng gaped, pointing at herself in astonishment: "Me, a dowry maid?!"

"Isn't that right?" Bamboo Douluo smiled gently. "If the young lady gets married, won't you go with her?"

Wu Feng: "..."

The girl deflated instantly, like a punctured balloon, and left with teary eyes.

I never expected that it wouldn't just be the young lady, but also her!

"Woooooooo..."

Upon seeing Ning Tian, ​​Wu Feng couldn't hold back and burst into tears.

"What's wrong?" Ning Tian was at a loss, looking at the girl who rushed into his arms. This child was usually so carefree, what had triggered her today?
"Old Master Zhu said that I would also be part of the dowry to Su Wen..." Wu Feng sobbed, her pretty face covered in tears.

"You hate him?" Ning Tian coughed twice.

“Well, that’s not quite it.” Wu Feng hesitated for a moment.
