Returning to Dragon King Hall

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two months have Shiguang since Lu Yuan conferred the title of Holy Son.

Today, it's time to say goodbye again.

With only three months left until the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, Lu Yuan needs to go back and prepare for the team's matters.

"Junior brother, I can't bear to part with you!" Hu Liena hugged Lu Yuan's neck, reluctant to let go. Although she had been with Lu Yuan almost all the time for the past two months, she still couldn't bear to part with Lu Yuan. Even if they were separated for just a short while, she couldn't bear it.

"Alright, it's only been a few months, and I'm back again. You stay in Spirit City obediently, and after the finals, I can be with you again, right?" Lu Yuan said softly.

"But I just can't bear to part with you. How about I go to Heaven Dou with you?" Hu Liena blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Lu Yuan with hope.

"What are you saying? You're just making a fool of yourself!" Lu Yuan flicked his finger at Hu Liena's smooth forehead, and Hu Liena immediately looked at Lu Yuan with a bitter face.

Looking at Hu Liena's pitiful little face, Lu Yuan's heart softened. He couldn't bear it when Hu Liena looked at him with such pitiful eyes.

Gently stroking Hu Liena's face, Lu Yuan said softly, "You should stay in Spirit City. The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament is coming soon. You need to practice with your teammates and make some preparations in advance. Otherwise, if you lose before you even meet my team, the Spirit Hall will lose face big time."

"How could that be? Our Spirit Hall Team is incredibly strong. Unless we encounter you, we can't possibly lose." Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Hu Liena immediately retorted fiercely.

"Is that so?" Lu Yuan smiled faintly. "There are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Who knows, a powerful team might just appear. If you accidentally lose to them, you'll be in big trouble. Don't come crying to me then."

"We won't lose, you brat! How dare you underestimate us? You think I won't bite you?" Hu Liena opened her cherry-like mouth, revealing her snow-white teeth, and threatened Lu Yuan.

"I believe you, I believe you!" Lu Yuan rolled his eyes at Hu Liena and said, "I've always had a question: you're clearly a fox, not a puppy, so why do you bite people so much?"

"Hmph, I love to bite, and I only bite you, my stinky junior brother," Hu Liena snorted, speaking with a touch of arrogance.

"Hehe!" Lu Yuan chuckled, pinched Hu Liena's delicate nose, and said, "Little fox, haven't you always wanted a more affectionate nickname? The nickname 'Na'er' is no longer available, so from now on I'll call you Little Fox. Zhu Qing is a kitten, and you're a little fox. Hmm, it's quite catchy."

"What do you think?" Lu Yuan smiled at Hu Liena. If Qian Renxue hadn't reminded him that time, he really wouldn't have known that Hu Liena was angry because the title "Na'er" was taken away from her.

At that moment, I was both annoyed and amused. Hu Liena was so charmingly naive.

"I think it's alright." Hearing Lu Yuan call her little fox, Hu Liena's big eyes curved into crescents, but she spoke in a nonchalant tone, which almost made Lu Yuan laugh.

This Hu Liena is really interesting.

"You've learned to be arrogant too, little fox?" Lu Yuan rubbed Hu Liena's head, his eyes full of smiles.

Hu Liena hummed softly, but didn't answer. She just kept rubbing her cheek against Lu Yuan's face, which immediately gave Lu Yuan some strange feelings.

"Alright, stop fooling around, I should go now, let go of me!" Lu Yuan said softly, holding Hu Liena's fair wrist.

"Alright!" Sensing the seriousness in Lu Yuan's tone, Hu Liena reluctantly let go of Lu Yuan, her eyes filled with deep affection.

"Alright, wait for me to come back, little fox." Lu Yuan said with a smile, gently pinching Hu Liena's cheek.

"Yes, I will wait for you to come back," Hu Liena said.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly and nodded to Bibi Dong, who was not far away. "Teacher, I'll be leaving now."

"Go ahead, be careful on the road, and take good care of yourself. If you need any help, just let me know, and I'll fully support you," Bibi Dong said.

"Okay, thank you, teacher. I understand. Goodbye, teacher." After waving to Bibi Dong, Lu Yuan turned and walked towards the carriage not far away.

"Zhu Qing, Sister Xiaotao, let's go." Holding Zhu Zhuqing's little hand, and calling out to Ma Xiaotao who had been watching, Lu Yuan got into the carriage and headed straight for Heaven Dou Imperial City.

"Finally, I'm back." Looking at the familiar scene outside, Lu Yuan sighed softly.

"Yes, it's been a year since I left the Heaven Dou Imperial City. I'm finally back again." Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly and said.

"I wonder how things are going now?"

"I sent Uncle Yan back to preside over the Dragon King Hall a year ago. I wonder how the Dragon King Hall is doing now?" Lu Yuan said, tapping his chin lightly with his right hand.

"Why don't we go back and see for ourselves?" Zhu Zhuqing said.

"Well, let's go back to the Dragon King Hall now and check on its current situation, then we can return to the Heavenly Star Academy to prepare for the team's matters," Lu Yuan said.

"You can decide what to do," Zhu Zhuqing said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan gently stroked Zhu Zhuqing's long hair, a flicker of emotion passing through his eyes. He was quite interested in the current development of the Dragon King Hall.

"Dragon King Hall!" Looking at the somewhat familiar building in front of him, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh. It had been more than a year since he had returned to this place.

The Dragon King Hall has clearly developed rapidly. Even the number of guards at the entrance has increased, and many hidden mechanisms have been added to the entire building. It seems that these were installed within the past year.

Holding Zhu Zhuqing's hand, he walked towards the Dragon King Hall.

"Halt, three of you. This is the Dragon King Hall. Trespassing is not permitted." Lu Yuan and his group had only taken a few steps when they were stopped by the guards.

Seeing Lu Yuan being stopped, a smile flashed across Zhu Zhuqing's eyes. It was quite interesting that the dignified Hall Master the Dragon King Hall was stopped at his own gate.

Looking at the middle-aged guard blocking his way, Lu Yuan's lips twitched slightly. He had forgotten that he had been gone for more than a year, and these newly appointed guards did not recognize him.

Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance.

"Do you recognize this?" A flash of light appeared in Lu Yuan's hand, and a token appeared in his hand. The token was silver, and a magnificent golden dragon was engraved on it.

The guard's expression changed immediately upon seeing the token.
