Speed Clan

"Director Xu, we're preparing to leave. Before we go, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would like to order some offensive and defensive Soul Tools from Angel Academy."

"No problem. Just provide the materials, and the price will be based on the materials as well."

Xu Yichen did not particularly mind. Although Angel Academy currently only had Zhixin capable of crafting Soul Tools, she was still a level-nine Soul Engineer.

"However, we can only provide Soul Tools below level nine. Level-nine Soul Tools take far too long to make, and Angel Academy does not have many people capable of crafting them, so..."

"I understand."

Ning Fengzhi could understand as well. After all, level-nine Soul Tools could kill Titled Douluo, so they were naturally extremely difficult to manufacture.

"Then anything below level nine will do."

"Mm. Just discuss the type of Soul Tools you need with Zhixin."

At night, several shining stars hung in the dim sky.

The starlight was not dazzling, but it allowed everyone to see clearly. Xu Yichen also spread his Star Angel wings and began drawing upon the Power of Stars to cultivate his Soul Power.

Nighttime was the best time for Xu Yichen to cultivate.

"Director, I'm back."

Dugu Yan skipped back cheerfully.

"So late?"

"Mm. My grandfather wasn't home. I waited for him for a while, but he still hadn't returned, so I left him a note."

"It's fine. There's no great rush."

Dugu Yan sat beside Xu Yichen, and a faint fragrance curled around his nose, stirring warmth in his heart.

"Director, don't you think tonight's scenery is beautiful?"

"It really is. Countless stars hide within the night, yet in the end, some stars will always shine."

"Then do you think we should do something even more beautiful?"

Dugu Yan looked at Xu Yichen shyly, her eyes brimming with tenderness.

Xu Yichen understood what Dugu Yan meant.

"No regrets?"

"No regrets!"

Xu Yichen smiled, then scooped Dugu Yan up in a bridal carry. Dugu Yan wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face against his chest.

On a rooftop not far away, Ling Xi's group of three stared fixedly at the pair's movements.

"Zhixin, look at you. Yan Yan has already taken the initiative, but you still can't do it. You're really timid."

Ling Xi pinched Zhixin's soft cheek.

"How would I have the time right now? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Soul Tools still aren't finished, and I also need to teach Lingling about Soul Tools."

"Oh? How is Lingling doing?"

"Her talent is very good. Before long, I think she'll become a level-nine Soul Engineer too. She even has a good chance of reaching level ten."

At the mention of Ye Lingling, Zhixin smiled brightly. She was extremely satisfied with this disciple.

"Then nurture her well."

A short while later.

Continuous soft moans rose from the room below.

"Damn it, Zhuqing, did you see that? We've fallen behind again."

Ning Rongrong looked furious.

Zhu Zhuqing, standing beside her, was somewhat speechless. It was so late, yet Ning Rongrong had dragged her over to eavesdrop.

Although Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat envious of Dugu Yan, she knew she was still too young. No matter what, Xu Yichen would not touch her.

But once she was old enough, Xu Yichen would devour her without hesitation. After all, the way he looked at her every day was extremely heated.

So instead of wasting time eavesdropping, she might as well cultivate her Soul Power.

"Let's go, let's go."

Zhu Zhuqing pulled Ning Rongrong back with her. Ning Rongrong's pretty face was flushed red, and she was still somewhat reluctant.

"Tsk, tsk. Those two little girls are really interesting. They actually came to eavesdrop."

Qilin propped her cheeks in her hands, finding it rather amusing.

Half a month later.

"Director, I found the person you asked me to find."

Qilin sat on the table, her long, delicate legs swinging back and forth, making Xu Yichen's eyes blur for a moment.

"Where is Bai Chenxiang?"

"The Speed Clan is in the southern part of Heaven Dou City. The Strength Clan is there as well, so Bai Chenxiang is naturally there too."

"Very well. Take everyone there to have a look. The main thing is to recruit Bai Chenxiang. It would be even better if the Speed Clan could become an affiliated force as well."

"Gather up, gather up."

Xu Yichen's voice spread throughout Angel Academy, and before long, everyone had arrived.

"Headmaster, what are we doing?"

"I'm taking you to the Speed Clan to recruit our next student."

"The Speed Clan? Weren't they once a subordinate force of the Clear Sky Sect?"

"That's right. If possible, we can bring the Speed Clan, or even the four single-attribute clans, under our wing. That would be quite good too."

Xu Yichen felt that although Angel Academy was strong now, it still had too few people. Recruiting some other forces was therefore very important.

"Alright, alright."

Ning Rongrong was very interested in this sort of thing as well.

"I think you just don't want to cultivate anymore."

Xu Yichen rubbed Ning Rongrong's head. This Little Demoness still did not like cultivating.

Ning Rongrong curled her lips. "Isn't it because you kept me awake at night?"

Xu Yichen's mouth twitched, and he felt rather embarrassed.

Ling Xi, Qilin, and the others were embarrassed as well. Xu Yichen was very formidable now; even working hard every day was an easy matter for him.

So long as they had nothing to do at night, they would come to Xu Yichen's place. Ning Rongrong's room was quite close to Xu Yichen's, and sometimes the sounds could get rather loud.

Xu Yichen was speechless. Such a luxurious house, yet the soundproofing was so poor.

"Alright, enough of that. Let's go, let's go."

If Ning Rongrong kept talking, none of them would be able to hold their heads up.

The southern part of the city was not far from Angel Academy. They could simply walk there.

"So this is the Speed Clan? It's so shabby."

Ning Rongrong could hardly believe it. The Speed Clan was a family with a Soul Douluo, after all. How had it fallen into such ruin?

"That's normal. The Speed Clan's martial soul is the Swift-tailed Swallow. The Swift-tailed Swallow possesses incredible speed, but it has no means of attack. It can be said to be extremely weak. After leaving the Clear Sky Sect, it became difficult for them to support the members of the Speed Clan. If the other three clans had not helped them from time to time, they would have collapsed long ago."

Xu Yichen was somewhat speechless as well. The Clear Sky Sect had harmed them to this extent, yet later they would still join Tang San's Tang Sect. They really were courting death.

As long as the four single-attribute clans joined Angel Academy, Xu Yichen would not make a move. Otherwise, they could not blame him.
