He squeezed the headlights on Wen Xuan's chest until they deformed.
After Wen Xuan's taming, a puddle of sticky Milk had also been left on Xiao Wu's headlights.
"When are we leaving for home?" Xiao Wu's lazy voice came through. She was utterly exhausted after Wen Xuan had rubbed her jade feet and headlights with Barrett for half an hour.
"Tell that kid Tang San, so he doesn't come to the door with breakfast again."
With that, Wen Xuan carried Xiao Wu into the bathroom.
During class at noon, Wen Xuan held Xiao Wu's hand and told Tang San that he had broken through level thirty and was preparing to hunt for a Soul Ring.
However, seeing Yu Xiao Gang beside Tang San, Wen Xuan frowned and took Xiao Wu's hand, intending to leave the way they had come.
But sharp-eyed Tang San spotted them.
"Xiao Wu, Brother Xuan, were you looking for me?"
Tang San jogged over to the two of them. He had already grown used to seeing Xiao Wu and Wen Xuan holding hands so intimately.
He had been watching them for more than a year.
"So you're Wen Xuan and Xiao Wu, the ones Xiao San always talks about."
Seeing Tang San's excitement, Yu Xiao Gang hurried over as well.
The moment he saw Wen Xuan and Xiao Wu's looks, Yu Xiao Gang finally understood why Tang San talked about Xiao Wu every day.
Even Wen Xuan was a handsome young man, with skin even better than Xiao Wu's beside him. Who wouldn't like looking at him? Not to mention Xiao Wu, his younger sister. No wonder Tang San thought about her every day.
After sizing them up, Yu Xiao Gang could not help praising them inwardly.
Xiao Wu's figure did not look like that of a girl her age. Not only were her headlights well developed, but even her legs in Stockings looked slender and fair. She was even taller than Tang San.
"So you're that level-twenty-nine master Tang San mentioned? Tsk, tsk, tsk... even a butcher is better than Tang San, yet you call yourself a master. I really don't know..."
Seeing Yu Xiao Gang openly sweep his gaze over her body, Xiao Wu's eyes filled with disgust toward this buzzed-cut old man. He was as disgusting as Tang San.
Wen Xuan had only told her not to be too harsh on Tang San. He had never told her to treat this old man well.
Xiao Wu's words made Tang San, standing nearby, narrow his eyes and clench his fists.
But he did not activate the Silent Sleeve Arrow at his cuff.
He merely stepped forward and interrupted Xiao Wu.
"Xiao Wu, don't talk about Teacher like that. His theoretical knowledge is very impressive. No one in the academy understands Martial Souls better than he does."
Toward Xiao Wu, Tang San could only patiently advise her.
Wen Xuan had seen Tang San's earlier movement clearly. Knowing that Xiao Wu could repeatedly dance along Tang San's bottom line, Wen Xuan was extremely satisfied.
Sure enough, Tang San treated Xiao Wu differently. Even after Yu Xiao Gang had been insulted, Tang San had not gotten angry.
"Tch... am I wrong?"
Hearing Tang San cut in, Xiao Wu muttered unhappily.
"Haha, although I may not compare to others when it comes to Martial Souls, when it comes to theory... I dare say very few people can surpass me."
Yu Xiao Gang was not angry. He treated Xiao Wu's words as nothing but hot air.
As he spoke, he walked up to Wen Xuan.
"Xiao San said that you two siblings are very talented. Are you interested in taking me as your master? Although I can't provide you with many resources, I can definitely guide you in matters concerning Martial Souls."
Seeing that Xiao Wu was not easy to fool, Yu Xiao Gang set his sights on Wen Xuan instead.
He had learned from Tang San that Wen Xuan's talent was no lower than Tang San's.
Moreover, Wen Xuan was Xiao Wu's brother. If he could fool Wen Xuan, Xiao Wu would definitely follow along.
"Xiao Xuan will never take you as his master! You think you're worthy of accepting Xiao Xuan? My Xiao Xuan is already level thirty. Once he absorbs a Soul Ring, he'll be stronger than an old man like you. And you still dare set your sights on my Xiao Xuan!"
Hearing that this buzzed-cut Yu Xiao Gang was actually targeting Wen Xuan, Xiao Wu could not tolerate it in the slightest.
Wen Xuan was her man. If he became the disciple of Yu Xiao Gang, the academy's famous good-for-nothing, like Tang San had, that would be disastrous.
Seeing Xiao Wu's hostile attitude and Tang San grinding his teeth beside them, Wen Xuan reached out, wrapped an arm around Xiao Wu, and pulled her tightly into his embrace.
Right in front of Tang San, he planted a kiss on Xiao Wu's face.
"Alright, don't be angry. Why would I ever become someone else's disciple?"
After soothing Xiao Wu, Wen Xuan turned his gaze toward Tang San and Yu Xiao Gang.
Tang San's eyes were wide open now, his gaze murderous.
Wen Xuan had done it on purpose. Tang San did not dare do anything to him anyway. Even if he did, Wen Xuan was not afraid as long as that old fool Tang Hao did not intervene.
Even if he could not win, he could still run. Besides, he had "Optimization" and "Degradation," so he feared Tang San even less.
"There's no need for taking a master. Xiao Wu and I are leaving today to hunt for Soul Rings. If there's nothing else, we'll be going."
Without waiting for Tang San or Yu Xiao Gang to answer, Wen Xuan carried Xiao Wu and ran toward the academy gates.
He had seen Tang San tap the cuff of his sleeve with one finger.
Having read the original novel and watched the anime, he knew that Tang San was about to pull his "path to death" routine and make Wen Xuan die in some accidental mishap.
With Tang San's methods, Xiao Wu definitely would not notice.
Watching Wen Xuan run away, Tang San angrily flicked his wrist.
This Wen Xuan was actually so intimate with his own younger sister. It was simply against all ethics.
But Wen Xuan had already left, so Tang San deactivated the Silent Sleeve Arrow.
Yu Xiao Gang shook his head repeatedly beside him.
"What a pity. Such good hair, yet his Martial Soul is actually a Soft Bone Rabbit. If he had taken me as his master, I could have helped them research the optimal Soul Ring combinations... sigh, what a shame."
Patting Tang San on the shoulder, Yu Xiao Gang said earnestly, "If you can persuade them, then try. Otherwise, in the future... they definitely won't get very far."
With that, Yu Xiao Gang walked back toward his room.
On the other side, Xiao Wu leaned her head against Wen Xuan's chest, sounding rather angry.
"That buzzed-cut old uncle actually wanted to take you as his disciple, Xiao Xuan. I don't know whether he hadn't woken up yet or I hadn't."
As she spoke, her little cheeks slowly puffed up.
Seeing this, Wen Xuan pinched Xiao Wu's cheek.
"Alright, just ignore people like that."
Then he smacked a kiss onto Xiao Wu's face.
The hostility on Xiao Wu's face faded considerably after being kissed.
"Hmph, next time I see him, I'll have Xiao Chenyu and the others find someone to teach him a lesson."
As she spoke, Xiao Wu clenched her little fist and swung it through the air twice.
Holding Xiao Wu, Wen Xuan found a carriage and tossed the driver two Gold Soul Coins.
He named a village near the Star Dou Great Forest.
Then he and Xiao Wu set off on the journey home.
At night, the carriage stopped in the wilderness. Wen Xuan slept with Xiao Wu in his arms.
Outside, the driver had fallen asleep on horseback.
At that moment, Wen Xuan, who had been holding Xiao Wu, slowly woke up and looked at the girl in his arms.
They were about to return and obtain Soul Rings. As long as his luck was not too bad, he probably would not travel to another plane.
Wen Xuan's consciousness entered the System Space.
Looking at the draw button and the number five beneath it, Wen Xuan decided to make a few draws.
"I refuse to believe it'll be Mutual Travel every time."
With that, Wen Xuan tapped the draw button.
The roulette wheel spun wildly, and the pointer finally stopped in a white area.
Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have drawn one headlight cover from Ye Lingling of Douluo Continent. Ding! This draw did not result in Mutual Travel.
"Huh?" Wen Xuan was completely dumbfounded.
"Aren't we in the same plane? I can still draw something like this? And... why is there even a chance of Mutual Travel? Could it be that I might suddenly appear at... Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
After he finished speaking, the system gave no explanation. It was as though he did not even have a system.
Seeing this, Wen Xuan stopped asking. He knew how useless the system was.
Suddenly, a white eye mask appeared in Wen Xuan's hand.
"Huh! It's still warm... looks like she was wearing it."
Wen Xuan lifted the cover to his nose and sniffed it. A pleasant floral fragrance immediately entered his nostrils.
"Not bad... I wonder if Ye Lingling will remember me."
Yan Lili, Balala the Fairies
Just as Wen Xuan drew away Ye Lingling's headlight cover, an absolutely stunning young woman in the girls' dormitory at Heaven Dou Royal Academy suddenly let out a startled cry.
"Wh-who was that?"
"What's wrong, Lingling?"
Hearing her best friend's voice, a woman with short dark-purple hair hurried out of the bathtub. She was so worried about her friend that she ran out without even having time to wrap herself in a bathrobe.
Her flawless, snow-white body was openly exposed before Ye Lingling.
Yet Dugu Yan did not care in the slightest. Ye Lingling was a woman too, so what was there to care about?
"Lingling, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Ye Lingling did not answer, the anxious Dugu Yan stepped forward and began shaking the dazed Ye Lingling.
Only after hearing her best friend call her did Ye Lingling snap out of the information that had suddenly appeared in her mind.
Seeing a pair of headlights pressing against her face, Ye Lingling pushed Dugu Yan away.
"Yan Yan... I just... got scared by a mouse."
Ye Lingling did not tell Dugu Yan about the information she had received in her mind.
For something like this, she, a reserved and aloof girl, was simply too embarrassed to speak of it.
Hearing that Ye Lingling had merely been frightened by a mouse, Dugu Yan pursed her lips in dissatisfaction.
"A mouse scared you that badly? I worried for nothing..." As she spoke, Dugu Yan grumbled as she swayed her snake-like waist and headed back toward the bathroom.
She had not even finished bathing, and her head was still covered in foam.
After bending down to pick up the bathrobe that had fallen to the floor, Dugu Yan entered the bathroom again and began humming a tune from inside.
After Dugu Yan left, a blush quickly spread across Ye Lingling's originally pale face.
Patting her burning cheeks, Ye Lingling muttered softly to herself.
"That Wen Xuan... actually stole... stole something like this in the middle of the night. What a..."
The usually aloof Ye Lingling had been treated this way by a man for the first time.
Compared to those young masters at the academy who pursued her, she had instead developed a trace of interest in an oddity like Wen Xuan.
As she spoke, Ye Lingling reached out and touched her chest, only to discover that it was empty there.
The pink blush on her face immediately looked ready to spread to the tips of her ears.
"Don't let me find you in the academy, or else..."
As Ye Lingling spoke, her cheeks puffed up as though she were angry. In truth, she merely wanted to see what kind of person Wen Xuan was.
Because of her family's Martial Soul, she did not want to have too much contact with men, lest she develop feelings and burden her parents at home.
After all... Nine Heart Begonia could only have one heir, and only two bearers could exist in the world at any time. For the next generation to inherit it, someone from the previous generation had to be sacrificed.
