Heaven Dou City! Zhu Zhuqing Gets Special Treatment

"Um?"

That morning, when Tang Wulin walked out of his room, he saw a letter placed at the door, and his face quickly showed a blank expression.

Especially after seeing the three bright words "farewell letter" on it, he couldn't help but sigh. He had been wondering why Xiao Wu had been acting so strangely before. It turned out that she was already leaving!

"Wulin, Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, by the time you read this letter, I may already be in another city."

"Please forgive my abrupt departure, but I have my reasons for leaving. I've had a great time with everyone these past few days, but I still have some personal matters to attend to..."

Looking at the contents of the envelope in his hand, Tang Wulin was speechless for a moment, then sighed. What "completing his own business"? Xiao Wu was just afraid of Titled Douluo.

"Fine."

We'll meet again.

Tang Wulin shook his head. Xiao Wu was only going to the Star Dou Great Forest. After that, he would meet her again when he went to obtain the Fifth Soul Ring.

"Xiao Wu is gone?"

Not long after, when Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong met up with him and prepared to go to Heaven Dou City, they were stunned to hear this news, and their faces showed a hint of regret.

After all, they had gotten along very well these past few days, and they didn't expect it to be time to part ways so soon.

"All good things must come to an end, and we'll meet again someday. Hopefully, Xiao Wu will come find us in Heaven Dou City after she's finished with her business..."

Ning Rongrong took a deep breath and murmured to herself.

"Yes."

Beside him, Zhu Zhuqing nodded in agreement.

We will definitely meet again someday.

Tang Wulin smiled slightly and said confidently.

After that, the three of them checked out of the hotel together and left. After all, even though Xiao Wu was gone, their plans for going to Heaven Dou City still needed to continue.

"Rongrong, over here."

Sword Douluo Chen Xin had been waiting for some time at a location not far from the hotel.

"Hmm, why are there only three of you?"

"What about the other little girl?"

But soon, Chen Xin realized something was wrong, and asked with a hint of doubt in her eyes, "Where is Xiao Wu, who is also twelve years old but whose Xiao Wu is much higher than Rongrong's and the others!?"

"Grandpa Jian, Xiao Wu has said goodbye to us and left for some other reason..."

Ning Rongrong raised her head, sighed, and slowly explained.

"I see. It's good that the little girl has her own plans, as long as she doesn't encounter any danger outside."

Chen Xin nodded thoughtfully. The other party's cultivation level was still too low. He could only hope that there would be no danger.

"..."

Tang Wulin smiled but didn't say anything. In Xiao Wu's eyes, Sword Douluo was the greatest danger.

"Let's go."

At this moment, Sword Douluo spoke as he took the lead and walked towards the west gate, and the others immediately followed.

With so many people around, flying on swords in broad daylight would be too conspicuous; they should head outside the city.

"Everyone, hold on tight. It's quite far to Heaven Dou City, so it will take a little longer."

As Chen Xin spoke, the enormous Seven Kill Sword reappeared, and after everyone stood on it, it rose into the air once more.

"Brother Tang..."

I'm a little afraid of heights.

Zhu Zhuqing subconsciously grabbed Tang Wulin's sleeve, then realized her lapse in composure, her pretty face flushed, and she said shyly.

As for suggesting she hold his hand...

Of course, it's a little embarrassing to say it out loud.

"Yes, it's okay, we'll be there soon."

Tang Wulin, momentarily stunned, smiled gently at the other person's shy expression, lightly took her hand, and said softly.

"..."

Zhu Zhuqing didn't speak, but nodded with a blush, seemingly in a very good mood.

"Um..."

Ning Rongrong silently observed Zhu Zhuqing's expression. Last time, perhaps the other person was genuinely afraid, but this time...

She definitely wants to hold hands!

Zhu Zhuqing really likes Brother Tang too. He's usually so aloof, but now he's being so direct. What can she do? So...

As she thought about it, she stepped forward and gently grasped the other person's other hand.

"Hmm? Rongrong?"

Zhu Zhuqing was taken aback. Feeling the warmth from the other hand, she was stunned. Her first thought was, why is Brother Tang holding both of Tang's hands this time? Only when she looked did she realize it was Rongrong.

"I'm afraid of heights too."

"What? Only Brother Tang can hold your hand, but I can't?"

Ning Rongrong gave a soft hum, a beautiful smile on her face, and couldn't help but chuckle.

Look at Zhu Zhuqing's double standards!

If Brother Tang can do it, why can't I?

"No... no, that's not true!"

Upon hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Zhu Zhuqing was startled, looking just like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, her face turning slightly red.

What are you saying...?

Brother Tang is still here!

"Then I'll just believe you for now!"

Ning Rongrong glanced at her and muttered to herself, a wave of emotion washing over her. Zhu Zhuqing had feelings for Brother Tang, and so did she, so...

As sisters, they should compete fairly.

Since Zhu Zhuqing took her hand first this time, she didn't try to take it from her; they were very close friends after all.

"But once we arrived at Heaven Dou City..."

"It's just the two of us competing now."

A look of speculation flashed across Ning Rongrong's face as she thought to herself.

Originally, Xiao Wu should have been added to the team, but now that she's gone, there's less pressure.

"By the way, Brother Tang, I'm planning to go back to my sect first. Would you like to come visit our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School?"

"Or should we take a walk around the city?"

Not long after, Ning Rongrong also spoke up and asked.

Coming to Heaven Dou City felt like returning to her hometown. Putting aside everything else, it's true that she could fulfill all their needs in Heaven Dou.

The title of Young Sect Master of the Upper Three Sects is comparable to that of a Crown Prince of a country.

"I'll hold off on visiting Rongrong for now. I need to see an acquaintance while I'm in Heaven Dou City."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin smiled and shook his head.

"Okay, what about Zhu Zhuqing?"

Ning Rongrong gave a simple reply, then looked at Zhu Zhuqing beside her, her expression also filled with anticipation.

"Hmm? Of course I can, but wouldn't that be too much trouble for you, Rongrong?"

Zhu Zhuqing pondered for a moment, then said softly.

"Eh! Really? I thought Zhu Zhuqing would choose to be with Brother Tang. What's the trouble? Not at all."

Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up immediately. Since Brother Tang had already refused, she hadn't expected him to agree, but the result was quite the opposite.

"Hmm? I do want to follow Brother Tang, but he has his own plans..."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing blushed slightly and responded.

Of course she wanted to be with Brother Tang, but she couldn't interfere with his own plans!

He's going to see an acquaintance, possibly a senior figure. If she goes, in what capacity will she go?

A little girl who likes Brother Tang...? Absolutely not.

"Um?"

Upon hearing these words, Tang Wulin was taken aback. From the way she unconsciously tightened her grip on his hand, he could tell that Zhu Zhuqing thought so.

"You, you, you, Zhu Zhuqing..."

Compared to Tang Wulin, Ning Rongrong was not in such a good mood. Her expression froze, and she silently pursed her lips.

Zhu Zhuqing, why does she keep going on and on with her direct approach? She's the other person's best friend, their best friend!

Is sisterhood really less important than brotherhood?

Okay, if she were the one holding Brother Tang's hand right now, it seems she wouldn't be thinking about sisters at all.

"..."

Not long after, Heaven Dou City.

As the imperial city of the Heaven Dou Empire, this is undoubtedly the most prosperous city in the entire country, without exception.

Not only is the city bustling, but outside the city also stands the Heaven Dou Royal Academy boasts the largest investment and the strongest faculty in the entire Heaven Dou Empire.

Even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, one of the Upper Three Sects, is located not far from here, which gives us a glimpse into its significance.

"We've finally arrived!"

As the group stood firm outside the Heaven Dou City, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but speak first, a hint of emotion in her eyes.

Suotuo City is not close to Heaven Dou City; even with Grandpa Sword's speed, it still took him more than ten minutes to get there.

Along the way, Brother Tang and Zhu Zhuqing were simply too much. They chatted for a while and talked about this and that, completely disregarding her, the third person in the group!

"Wulin, I'll leave you here for now."

"Once you've finished your own business, you're always welcome to come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Sword Douluo Chen Xin smiled slightly and spoke.

"Yes, definitely if I have the chance."

"Zhu Zhuqing, Rongrong, I'm leaving now."

Tang Wulin smiled and responded, while simultaneously releasing his grip on Zhu Zhuqing's hand.

"Good."

Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed red as she responded.

"Zhu Zhuqing, we're leaving now--"

Ning Rongrong, who was standing next to them, obviously couldn't stand the two of them being so affectionate, and quickly said something. In an instant, the two of them disappeared along with Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

"We've arrived in Heaven Dou City again."

Tang Wulin wore a faint smile, his gaze fixed on the city gate before him, but he showed little interest.

After all, the person he was looking for was a loner who didn't live in the city at all.

"Senior Golden Crocodile, let's go find the Old Poison."

He murmured, and in the blink of an eye, the Golden Crocodile Douluo appeared beside him.

He admitted that this might seem like using the other party as a tool, but then again, if the opportunity existed, why not use it?

"You only call me for things like this now, kid."

Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at his opponent with some helplessness. It wasn't that he, Old Gold Jin, was being nosy, but judging from Wulin's current posture...

He always felt that the three people he met in Suotuo City were all talented enough and interested in him, not even counting his senior sister Hu Liena from Spirit City who was pestering him to cultivate, or even his own young lady...

Visiting Miss Wulin was one of his top priorities during this trip to Heaven Dou City. The eldest brother had also been hoping to arrange a marriage between the two children, so they'd have each other's company when they became gods...

"Senior Golden Crocodile, my respect for you has never diminished."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin immediately shook his head repeatedly.

This is a slander against him.

"I know."

"Let's go, Wulin. Let me see what qualifications this Dugu Bo has to make you the first person you meet upon arriving in Heaven Dou City."

Golden Crocodile Douluo chuckled, and as he spoke, he carried the other person into the air, heading towards a secluded courtyard outside the city.

P. S.: Still over 6000 views, friends. I'm wondering what kind of Immortal Herb would be suitable for the Golden Crocodile? The Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma, whose reputation plummeted due to Gangzi's influence? Or perhaps the Earth Dragon Golden Melon?

Immortal-grade items are still effective against Golden Crocodiles.

My writing performance these past two days has been really worrying. I'm even starting to wonder if I've been writing too much lately, because my head feels a bit foggy (sad).
