My Name Is Xiao Wu, Wu as in Dancing

"Little Mo, this is your pay for the past three months. Take it!"

In the blink of an eye, three months had passed. Notting College was about to begin, and Mo Lang had not been idle during those three months.

He had gone to Notting City and found himself a job.

At first, Old Jack had naturally refused to allow it, but under Mo Lang's insistence, Old Jack eventually agreed.

Because Mo Lang had said:

"You and Widow Wang are too loud."

Old Jack had nearly died of embarrassment on the spot!

Fortunately, no one had heard it. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and agree to let Mo Lang visit Notting City, though Mo Lang had to come back once a month for Old Jack to see him.

Mo Lang nodded and agreed. He also needed to remind Old Jack to take care of his health.

After all, his age was right there.

Some things were hard to talk about.

And so, relying on the cooking skills he had acquired after graduating from New Oriental, Mo Lang found work as a cook. Another three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Notting College had finally begun. He could check in again!

After thanking his boss, Mo Lang took his money and bought bags upon bags of things, preparing to return to Holy Soul Village.

Though he was not yet eight years old, nourished by the Starfall Art, he looked about as tall as an eleven- or twelve-year-old boy. His strength was even more frightening!

Mo Lang had secretly tested himself. He could already lift five hundred jin!

In other words, with one punch, ordinary people were no match for him at all.

Although the Starfall Art had stopped progressing after he reached level twenty, the excess Star Power continued nourishing his body.

After carrying his things out of the city, Mo Lang saw that no one was around and stored everything in the system space. Then he raced toward Holy Soul Village at top speed.

Bang!

A sudden loud crash caught Mo Lang's attention.

"Little girl, we were wrong! We'll return their money right away!"

Focusing his gaze, Mo Lang saw two burly men with a white soul ring circling each of them. One held an axe, while a phantom image of a jackal floated behind the other.

They were clearly two Soul Masters!

Yet the two men were kneeling on the ground in a sorry state, begging for mercy.

Standing opposite them was a little girl who was a head shorter than Mo Lang and looked somewhat younger than him.

The little girl was adorable. Her pretty face was fair with a rosy blush, and dressed all in pink, she looked like a ripe peach that made people want to take a bite.

At that moment, however, that adorable face was filled with anger as she puffed out her cheeks and glared at the two men before her.

"Holy shit! That's Xiao Wu!"

Mo Lang recognized the little girl at once. She was Xiao Wu, the Xiao Wu he had dreamed about day and night!

Except Xiao Wu was still just a little loli now.

Wait?

A little loli?

A raising sim was pretty good too.

Slurp.

Just as Mo Lang was about to step in and help, he stopped.

No!

If he went over now and Xiao Wu asked to follow him back, then Xiao Wu and Tang San would inevitably meet ahead of time.

How would he check in then!?

The system could not allow an early check-in. Wouldn't that mean he would miss one check-in?

"Fine. Give me the money, and I'll let you go."

Xiao Wu walked over and held out her hand toward them without any guard up.

"You want money? Dream on!"

"Die!"

Who would have thought that the two men kneeling on the ground would suddenly spring up and attack Xiao Wu from both sides?

"You actually dare to ambush me!"

Xiao Wu had not expected these people to be so shameless.

For a moment, she panicked.

"Fuck the check-in! You dare lay a hand on the woman I've set my eyes on? You're courting death!"

Seeing this, Mo Lang no longer cared about checking in.

At the same time, he understood something. If he hesitated over everything he did, how could he teach Tang San how to be a man?

Xiao Wu had long been the woman he had chosen. He would never allow anyone else to hurt her!

The Starfall Art circulated, and starlight wrapped around Mo Lang's body as if he wore the Starry River Cloak and Star Battle Armor. He did not even need to summon his martial soul. Moving as fast as lightning, he threw two punches that slammed into the men.

Bang! Bang!

Pfft!

The two were merely the most ordinary level-ten Soul Masters. Under Mo Lang's five-hundred-jin brute force, their internal organs were shattered. They immediately flew backward like kites with snapped strings, crashing into trees on either side. Whether they lived or died was unknown.

After slaughtering animals for four years at New Oriental, his heart had long become colder than Antarctica.

Only women could affect the speed at which he drew his blade.

As for his masters...

Only women wearing Black Silk could affect the speed at which they drew their blades.

"L-little girl, are you all right?"

Mo Lang had nearly called Xiao Wu by name, but fortunately corrected himself in time. Otherwise, he would not have been able to explain it.

"I-I'm fine."

When she saw Mo Lang's sunny, handsome face, Xiao Wu did not know why, but she felt as if something had struck her heart. Her heart began pounding wildly.

Especially when she recalled how he had shimmered with starlight just now. He had been unbelievably cool!

However, she still did not know what this feeling was. She only knew that this boy seemed pretty good.

"..."

Mo Lang was also sizing Xiao Wu up. Looking at her porcelain-doll-like little face and catching the faint fragrance coming from her, his heart was struck as well, even though she was still young.

As expected of the female lead. She really was beautiful.

"Why are you having a nosebleed?"

Seeing that Mo Lang had suddenly begun bleeding from his nose for no reason, Xiao Wu immediately took out a handkerchief and helped wipe it away.

"Huh?"

Mo Lang immediately came to his senses. Touching his nose, he found that it really was bleeding.

He silently cursed himself for being a beast.

Even if she was one hundred thousand and five years old, she still looked like a little loli!

In his previous life, this would have landed him in prison for life!

"Don't move. I'll wipe it for you, as thanks for saving me just now."

Xiao Wu spoke softly as she gently wiped Mo Lang's nosebleed away.

She did not even notice that her voice had suddenly become gentler.

"It's fine. Maybe I ate something recently that gave me too much internal heat."

Mo Lang had not expected three years of eating Chive Scrambled Eggs to give him internal heat only now.

Secretly circulating the Starfall Art to stop the nosebleed, Mo Lang looked at Xiao Wu and asked curiously, "Why were you fighting them?"

"I saw them scamming old people out of their money here. They said eating Soul Beast Meat could increase the chances of awakening Soul Power. How could Soul Beast Meat possibly have that effect?"

At the thought of it, Xiao Wu returned to normal and spoke angrily.

"They were selling Soul Beast Meat?"

The moment Mo Lang heard that, he remembered the five Gold Soul Coins Old Jack had been cheated out of. He immediately glared angrily at the two men.

Only to discover that they were already dead.

He looked at his fists. He had not expected himself to be this powerful.

But dead was dead. If they had not died, he would have made them wish they were dead!

"I didn't expect someone so young to be this impressive."

Seeing that the two men were dead, Xiao Wu did not say much. Completely unafraid, she searched their bodies and pulled out a money pouch. She did not have much goodwill toward humans in the first place.

Her mother had died at human hands.

But she had been in the human world for a year or two now, and she knew humans could be divided into good and evil, just like Soul Beasts.

That was also why she had been willing to help those old people.

Because when she had first come out, many elderly people had shown her kindness, giving her food and shelter.

"Oh, right. My name is Xiao Wu, Wu as in dancing. What's your name?"

Remembering something, Xiao Wu suddenly introduced herself to Mo Lang and asked.
