Douluo V: Taking advantage of Xiao Wu's naivety, I tricked her into becoming my wife.

But where will I live?

Ye Hua smiled without saying a word.

"Wait!" Xiao Wu saw his expression, suddenly realized what he meant, and her eyes widened.

She pointed her finger at Ye Hua's nose, "You...you...you're not going to make me stay here, are you?"

"Ah."

"Live with you?!"

"Ah."

Xiao Wu's face flushed red!

The redness started all the way down to my ears!

Even the little stray hairs hidden in her braids stood up, making her look exactly like a fluffy rabbit!

"Ye Hua! Do you know... do you know what it means for a rabbit to live with a male and a female together!"

Goodness, he doesn't even call me "brother" anymore.

Ye Hua feigned innocence, blinking blankly.

Xiao Wu pursed her lips, and after making sure no one was outside the courtyard, she whispered, "Only... only married rabbits live in the same burrow!"

The evening breeze swept in from over the wall, rustling the leaves of the jujube tree.

Ye Hua was stunned for two seconds, a look of both amusement and exasperation on his face.

"Then tell me," Ye Hua slightly bent his knees, bringing his gaze level with Xiao Wu's, "do the rabbit siblings also live in the same burrow?"

Xiao Wu turned her head away, closed her eyes, and pouted angrily.

“You’re a rabbit, and so am I!” Ye Hua moved closer to her turned face, ignoring her tightly closed eyes, and waved two fingers.

"Two immature rabbits, what's the difference between male and female? I'm your brother, you're my sister, it's only natural for siblings to live in the same yard."

"Does the rabbit's parent want to separate the rabbit from its offspring before the rabbit has reached adulthood?"

Xiao Wu was still hesitating, "But..."

“Don’t worry, the villa has several bedrooms,” Ye Hua straightened up, giving her the choice. “Of course, if you feel uncomfortable, I’ll take you back to the academy.”

silence.

Xiao Wu lowered her head, twisting the end of her braid with her fingers, round and round.

The setting sun bathed her profile in a warm orange hue, and her eyelashes cast long, fine shadows on her cheeks.

"...Alright then."

"Considering we're siblings..."

【Ding--】

[Xiao Wu's rescue rate +5%]

Current rescue status: 25%

Ye Hua's lips curled up slightly, then quickly disappeared.

"It's settled then. I'll submit a report to Director Su another day and apply for off-campus accommodation for you."

"I'll have to trouble Wang Sheng to cover for me tonight. Don't worry, Wang Sheng is shrewd. He knows what to do even if I don't tell him."

"good night!"

Ye Hua escorted Xiao Wu to her bedroom door, thoughtfully laid out new bedding for her, and blew out the lamp.

The footsteps faded into the distance, leaving only the clattering of slippers in the corridor before finally fading into silence.

Xiao Wu rolled over in the blanket and buried her face in the fresh scent of buckwheat hulls from her new pillow.

The bedding was thick and warm, completely different from the hard wooden plank beds in Dormitory 7.

She recalled Tang San's sticky gaze, and then she remembered that Ye Hua had never laid a hand on her; everything he did was so gentlemanly.

"elder brother......"

......

In the next bedroom, Ye Hua sat cross-legged on the bed.

"System, begin fusing the spirit rings!"

[Command confirmed - Millennium Soul Ring fusion begins]

[Host's soul power has been detected to have reached level 15. After fusion, you will directly break through to the Soul Master realm and obtain your first Soul Skill.]

A warm power rose from his dantian. Unlike the scorching heat during the evolution of his martial soul, this power was gentle and subtle, like a gentle rain nourishing the earth.

A pale purple soul ring slowly rotated in his consciousness space, with faint patterns flowing on the ring, ancient and mysterious.

It descended from the consciousness space, sank along the meridians, and finally wrapped around the Panlong Staff.

The five-clawed golden dragon pattern on the Panlong Staff suddenly lit up, its head raised and its tail swaying, as if celebrating the acquisition of its first soul ring.

next moment--

Bang bang bang!

Soul power surged!

The bottleneck of level 15 is as thin as paper in front of a thousand-year soul ring; it can be broken with a single puncture!

Ye Hua's soul power level starts jumping from level 15 and goes up!

Sixteen, seventeen, eighteen...

It eventually stopped steadily at the peak of level 20.

All that's missing is a spirit ring to become a Great Spirit Master!

What made Ye Hua's heart race even faster was the information about the first soul skill, which naturally surfaced in his mind.

[First Soul Skill: Fire Dragon's Roar]

[Effect: When swinging the staff, it unleashes a true dragon's blazing fire, possessing immense power that can penetrate any opening, and has a significant restraining effect on plant-type martial souls and defensive soul masters]

[Additional Bonus: Attacks are imbued with dragon's might, exerting a level-based suppression on beast spirit masters. The extent of the suppression is inversely proportional to the quality of the opponent's spirit.]

Ye Hua opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

"This soul skill doesn't seem to be a direct attack type; it's more like an enchantment for the Panlong Staff."

"But it doesn't matter, I still have the divine skill and soul skill, Nine Heavens Staff Technique. If I use it in a row, I'm sure I can beat my opponent senseless."

"Therefore, the powerful offensive soul skills that everyone desires are no longer important to me."

After a quick wash, Ye Hua lay down on the bed.

With the Panlong Staff, level 20 soul power, an invulnerable physique, and the newly acquired [Fire Dragon Roar], he has more and more cards in his hand, and his foundation is becoming more and more solid.

Now, as long as Tang Hao doesn't make a move, he is invincible!

But... after the school year ends, Tang San will go home and will definitely cry to Tang Hao.

Unless he is heartless and determined, preferring to suffer in silence rather than let his "useless" father laugh at him!

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. At worst, I'll just take Xiaowu and run away!"

"As long as I arrive at Shrek Academy on time in six years and save Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, that's all that matters!"

"If I can't come up with something to deal with Tang Hao after six whole years, then I, this cheat code, am just a piece of trash!"

After thinking it over, Ye Hua fell into a deep sleep.

Unbeknownst to him, a conspiracy between a master and his disciple was unfolding in the master's office...

Chapter 11 The Master's Scheme

"Teacher...be gentle..."

"what!!!!!"

Tang San bit down on a piece of rag, veins bulging on his forehead.

Yu Xiaogang was covered in sweat, pinching Tang San's twisted forearm, gesturing left and right, hesitating to make a move.

His greatest practical experience in his life was bathing and scrubbing Luo Sanpao's back; he had only ever read about bone setting and bone trimming in books.

"Don't rush, let me think... Page eight of the 'Soul Master First Aid Manual' describes the fracture reduction technique..."

With his mind full of theories, Yu Xiaogang gritted his teeth and pushed and twisted with both hands.

A crisp snap!

The bone has been set!

But it was connected incorrectly.

Tang San was in so much pain that he curled up like a shrimp, his eyes wide open like copper bells.

He bit down hard on the rag to keep from howling in the middle of the night.
