Dai Mubai and Tang San were unconvinced. They did not understand why Flender was so subservient to a woman.
In truth, Flender did not know Mu Yu's rank. In his mind, no matter how gifted she was, Mu Yu was at most a Soul King right now and certainly weaker than him. What he feared were the Titled Douluos Mu Yu had mentioned the night before.
If even Tang Hao could not afford to provoke them, would he not be walking straight into a gun barrel if he carelessly offended them?
Under Flender's pressure, Dai Mubai and Tang San reluctantly apologized.
"Miss Mu, look, these two children are ignorant. Please be magnanimous and do not hold it against them..."
"Dean Flender, the children may be ignorant, but are the adults ignorant too?"
Mu Yu glanced at Yu Xiaogang.
Flender froze, then helplessly walked over to Yu Xiaogang. But Yu Xiaogang proudly raised his head, showing no intention of apologizing whatsoever.
Flender said helplessly, "Miss Mu, I'll apologize to you on Xiaogang's behalf..."
"Forget it. I was too rushed when I came this time, so I did not explain things clearly."
Only after hearing Mu Yu's words did Flender finally relax.
"From now on, I'll send someone to deliver meals to Rongrong and Little Qing every day. You have no objections, right?"
"Of course not."
With that, Mu Yu openly spread her wings, grabbed the two girls, and flew away.
Only after Mu Yu left did Flender breathe a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang, who was standing nearby, spoke.
"Why were you so polite to a woman? You even lowered yourself to apologize to her."
"You don't know this, but she has an extraordinary background. There are several Titled Douluos around her—we can't afford to provoke her."
At this point, Yu Xiaogang seemed to think of something and secretly pulled Flender into a corner.
"Flender, you still don't know, do you? Little San also has quite the background. His father is..."
Before Yu Xiaogang could finish, Flender cut him off.
"I know. His father is Tang Hao."
"Then why are you afraid of that woman?"
"Xiaogang, you don't understand. Because one of our school's teachers accidentally hurt Little San, Tang Hao wanted to kill that teacher..."
"He actually hurt Little San?"
Yu Xiaogang's face darkened. "Then he deserved a beating."
Flender was stunned. How could Xiaogang say something like that?
He consoled himself by thinking that Yu Xiaogang simply cared too much about Tang San, which was why he had said such a thing.
There was displeasure on his face, but he continued nonetheless.
"It was one of the Titled Douluos beside that girl who saved that teacher. And... Tang Hao seemed to be very afraid of that Titled Douluo."
"That woman really is a meddlesome busybody," Yu Xiaogang cursed.
"Xiaogang, you can't say that. I know you're angry because Zhao Wuji hit Little San, but that was merely normal instruction for a student. You and Tang Hao are making far too much of it."
"What normal instruction? Does Little San need him to teach him?"
Flender's expression darkened slightly. Yu Xiaogang seemed to have changed. He had become somewhat unfamiliar...
"Besides, the Clear Sky Douluo was someone who even dared to strike the Pope. He is a hero who killed a generation of Spirit Hall's Popes! Who knows what kind of nobodies are around that woman!"
Flender was rather speechless, but he did not want to argue with Yu Xiaogang.
"Enough, Xiaogang. Just stay out of her way next time."
Meanwhile, Mu Yu had already brought the two children to the City Lord's Mansion. After feeding them well, she began their special training.
In truth, special training was nothing more than high-intensity exercise.
Zhu Zhuqing finally understood why Ning Rongrong's physical fitness was so formidable.
After training, Mu Yu sent the two of them back.
"Starting tomorrow, Xiao Mo will bring you meals and supervise your training. I have something to do, so I need to return to Heaven Dou."
"Alright, Sis. Have a safe trip—ah, no, have a smooth journey..."
Mu Yu: (smiles) Are you asking for a beating?
After letting Ning Rongrong experience the dangers of society, Mu Yu finally set off for Heaven Dou.
The matter of her using Qian Renxue's token to be treated as an honored guest in Suotuo City two days ago had already reached Qian Renxue's ears.
Upon hearing that her younger sister was returning, Qian Renxue immediately wrote Mu Yu a letter, asking her to return to Heaven Dou to see her.
If you can't find the book by searching its title, try searching for the author instead. It may simply have been renamed!
Mu Yu first arrived at the imperial palace. Upon entering, it seemed as though some sort of grand celebration was being held.
Mu Yu walked over in confusion. At the main gate, two guards stopped her.
"Miss, please present your invitation."
An invitation? Sister never said anything about needing one...
Seeing that Mu Yu remained motionless, the guards assumed she was an assassin and immediately armed themselves.
Mu Yu: Believe me, I'm just a poor little girl!
At that moment, as though she had spotted her savior, she rushed toward Gu Rong, who had come over after hearing the commotion.
"Teacher..."
Gu Rong looked at Mu Yu and the pursuers behind her in confusion.
"What's going on?" Gu Rong asked.
"Bone Douluo, that young lady does not have an invitation. According to the rules, she cannot enter."
Gu Rong waved a hand at the guards. "She's my disciple. This must be a misunderstanding. Go back to your duties."
Upon hearing Gu Rong's words, the guards promptly withdrew.
"Why are you here?"
Mu Yu couldn't exactly say that her sister had called her here...
She looked around, and her gaze eventually landed on Dugu Bo.
"Senior Dugu invited me!"
Dugu Bo sprayed out a mouthful of tea, nearly choking.
"Huh? When did you two meet?"
Dugu Bo: ?
I'm just sitting here, and somehow a blame drops out of the sky?
After dealing with Gu Rong, Mu Yu turned and ran off to find Qian Renxue.
Since they were in public, Mu Yu did not dare act too conspicuously, afraid of exposing Qian Renxue's identity.
"Big Brother Crown Prince!" Mu Yu skipped toward Qian Renxue.
Her excitement at seeing her sister made her completely overlook the stunned Xue Ye beside them.
The moment Qian Renxue saw her younger sister, she skillfully pulled Mu Yu into a hug.
"Xiao Yu, everyone's watching."
Qian Renxue looked at Mu Yu teasingly.
Only then did Mu Yu notice Xue Ye's delighted, shipper-like expression and Ning Fengzhi rubbing his forehead helplessly nearby.
She wanted nothing more than to crawl into a crack in the ground.
At that moment, Xue Ye rose with a smile. "This must be Mu Yu, Bone Douluo's disciple?"
Qian Renxue nodded. "That's right, Father."
"Miss Mu truly is as clever and lively as the rumors say."
"Ahem, ahem. Mu Yu greets Your Majesty."
"No need for ceremony. Miss Mu, go catch up with Qinghe first. I won't disturb you."
With that, Xue Ye returned to Ning Fengzhi's side and sat down.
"Fengzhi, the little girl from your family really is beautiful."
Ning Fengzhi smiled and humored Xue Ye.
Chen Xin was already thinking about how to deal with Xue Qinghe... That brat actually dared to steal someone from their Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Right, I'll also have to keep a close eye on Rongrong. Can't let someone else steal her away someday...
"Big Sister, why did you call me here this time?"
"The suggestion you gave me last time proved effective. Today, I prepared a gift for you."
"A gift!?"
"That's right. Today is the day Xue Ye officially names me Crown Prince."
"Congratulations, Big Sister~ Wait, the gift you mean can't be..."
She's not going to make me the Crown Princess, is she? Mu Yu thought in shock.
At that moment, Qian Renxue tapped Mu Yu on the head. "What are you thinking about?"
