In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 137 The teacher will tell you a story

Tang San, as Xiao Gang's personal disciple, might have more influence than I do. Flander's eyes lit up.

His eyes darted back and forth between Yu Xiaogang's room and Liu Erlong, who looked heartbroken, frantically implying that there was some kind of relationship between Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang.

Tang San nodded thoughtfully, gave Xiao Wu a look, and got up to walk towards Yu Xiaogang's room.

Flander then led Liu Erlong to another room.

A short while later, Tang San knocked on the door, only to find it wasn't closed properly, so he pushed it open and went inside.

"Teacher," she called out respectfully in a soft voice.

Standing and gazing out the window, Yu Xiaogang sighed softly and turned around. "Xiao San, come with your teacher for a walk."

"Okay." Tang San nodded and followed Yu Xiaogang out the door, strolling along the academy path in the night breeze.

After a long while, Yu Xiaogang finally spoke, "Xiao San, let me tell you a story."

"."

"Hey, isn't that Tang San and Grandmaster?" Dugu Yan couldn't help but ask, looking at the two figures in the distance.

Without the slightest hesitation, he turned to look at Ye Lingling, nodded slightly, and said, "Lingling, let's come closer and listen."

"This isn't a good idea," Ye Lingling said hesitantly.

"What's wrong with that? We're just passing by," Dugu Yan said calmly. "Just treat it as a stroll."

Others might not know, but Tang San's identity was known to him, and Tang Hao might even be eavesdropping somewhere in the shadows.

"Let's take that road. We should be able to hear you from this distance." He pulled Ye Lingling along.

"Teacher, if you keep running away like this, will Aunt Erlong really be happy?" Tang San's voice quickly reached my ears. "What about worldly views? You're not just worried that Aunt Erlong will suffer if she's with you, you're also afraid to accept reality. You're insecure."

"I've heard that physical union brings only fleeting pleasure, while spiritual connection lasts."

"Teacher, if you truly love Teacher Erlong, why be bound by physical intimacy and blood ties? Can't you be soulmates too, and that last a lifetime?"

Yu Xiaogang froze, then trembled all over.

Yes! His love for Erlong is genuine; he's not after her body. As long as there's no physical contact and they don't have children, it doesn't violate any moral principles, right? Long Yingtian's earlier claim that it would bring misfortune to their descendants is also unfounded!

Thinking about this, everything became clear!

He turned around and grabbed Tang San's shoulder, saying excitedly, "Little San, you're right, I've walked into a dead end."

"Teacher, let's go back." Tang San said with a smile.

"Yes, go back! I'll go apologize to your Aunt Erlong right now. I've wronged her all these years!"

The two turned and walked quickly toward the courtyard.

"." In the distance, behind the flowerbed, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling exchanged a glance, both shocked.

The former's expression shifted until the two completely disappeared from sight, at which point he uttered words with utter disdain.

"Nausea!"

"No wonder the young sect leader left Shrek Academy back then. Lingling, this master and disciple pair are really not right in the head. You must stay away from them in the future."

Ye Lingling nodded slightly; the conversation between the two had indeed somewhat challenged her worldview.

Isn't this blood relation too close?

"If possible, leave the team as soon as possible," Dugu Yan added. "With a team leader like this, it's no wonder that the six students from Shrek Academy are in such a sorry state."

"Three lechers, one ignorant, one gossipy, and one with a twisted mind."

Ye Lingling "."

Shortly after, inside the house.

"A spiritual couple, perhaps?" Looking at Yu Xiaogang, who kept his distance from her, Liu Erlong felt resentful, but she didn't show it. After all, Xiaogang had at least accepted her feelings now, which was progress.

He took a deep breath and said gently:

"Xiao Gang, why don't you quit Heaven Dou Royal Academy and go to my Blue Tyrant Academy?"

"If you're willing, I can change Blue Tyrant Academy to Shrek Academy at any time." Liu Erlong clearly understood Yu Xiaogang and his sworn brother Flander, and continued, "After all, Heaven Dou Royal Academy belongs to the Imperial Royal Family. Even if you achieve great results in the upcoming Soul Master Competition, for the sake of the Empire's reputation, this honor will definitely be attributed to the Imperial Royal Family."

"But if I rename Blue Tyrant Academy to Shrek Academy and hand over full authority over the academy to Flander, the honor will forever belong to Shrek."

"After all, the students in my Blue Tyrant Academy are all commoner Soul Masters, and they don't have many complicated relationships behind them."

"I think this will not only be more conducive to promoting your Soul Master theory, but also fulfill Boss Fu's ideal."

"As for team reinforcements, I haven't been idle over the years. I've also cultivated my own team within the academy, and the members are quite skilled."

"If you think that's not enough, Tianheng has always listened to you since he was little, just call him over too."

Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly, lost in thought, before speaking, "This matter needs further consideration. Let's discuss it later."

"Erlong, it's getting late, you should get some rest."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Just as Liu Erlong raised his hand to say something, Yu Xiaogang had already quickened his pace and walked out of the room.

"If you have no ideas, why be afraid?" Liu Erlong curled her lips, glanced down at her voluptuous figure, and smiled slightly.

"Hmph, Xiao Gang, this time, you won't escape my grasp again!"

After a long while, in the living room on the third floor.

"Young Sect Master." Seeing that Zhu Wu had finished cultivating, Dugu Yan stood up and said, "There's something I'd like to ask for your help with."

"We're all on the same side, no need to be so polite, just say what you want," Zhu Wu said with a smile.

"It's Ye Lingling from that team over there," Dugu Yan said. "Her martial soul is the Nine-Hearted Begonia."

We will begin by introducing the advantages and current shortcomings of this martial spirit.

"I can only say that it's not guaranteed to work out," Zhu Wu said calmly. "Moreover, the price might be something she can't afford."

"The herbs needed are almost the same ones that Rongrong used back then."

Dugu Yan's expression changed immediately, and she fell silent.

Then Zhu Wu's calm voice came through.

"One hundred million gold soul coins, or swearing allegiance to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, or offering a treasure of equal quality in exchange. If all else fails, there's one last option: her."

The three women were all taken aback.

Zhu Wu's expression remained unchanged. "My identity is that of the young master of the Beast Illusion Sect. This identity dictates that I must consider the interests of the family more. Sometimes, feelings can be secondary. The Nine-Heart Begonia Martial Soul is quite good, and its bloodline is qualified to be included in the inheritance of my Beast Illusion Sect."

Having a great healer that you can always have by your side means you won't have to spend any more Spirit Gold, which is pretty good.

Can feelings be eaten? Being good-looking and not ugly, having a strong martial soul ability that can help, is enough.

Ning Rongrong's gaze darkened inexplicably, her mind in turmoil. Did Brother Tian choose me back then because of interests, rather than feelings?

Zhu Wu turned to look at Ning Rongrong, reached out and patted her head, and said with a smile, "I still like Rongrong very much."

Ning Rongrong's pretty face immediately flushed red, and her little tantrum disappeared.

Aside from the fourth one being a bit strange, the other three requests were indeed not excessive, especially since the second one was still considering the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Dugu Yan remained silent. Although this reasoning was correct from a rational point of view, it still made people feel somewhat uncomfortable.

It's also a bit hurtful that the young sect leader isn't interested in her, apparently because her martial spirit is inadequate.

You're making me a little embarrassed!

"Wealth, loyalty, equivalent treasure, bloodline inheritance—choose one. Of course, if Ye Lingling's family can come up with other options, they can also suggest them."

Zhu Wu continued, "In short, I need a return of equal value. I don't think anyone would be willing to do a losing deal. Yan Yan, you can tell her these things verbatim."

"Okay." Dugu Yan nodded gently.

"Alright, everyone go back to your rooms and rest." Zhu Wu nodded. "We have to get up early for training tomorrow."

Dugu Yan nodded, got up and left.

Zhu Wu grabbed her waist and turned to her with a smile, "Rongrong, it seems you ordered papaya soup for dinner today."

Ning Rongrong blushed and subconsciously looked up at the door. When she heard no footsteps, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"She's still in the living room," she said shyly in a low voice.

"Hehe, Rongrong, you think it's too small? I'll help you make it bigger!" Long Ling'er suddenly made her move.

"Ah!" Ning Rongrong screamed, then quickly retaliated.

Zhu Wu was delighted by the sight and clapped his hands in unison, leaving only the sound of three footsteps in the room.

"Croak, croak, croak," came the chorus of frogs outside.
