"Huh? A newcomer? Why are the curtains drawn? So mysterious?"
Xiao Wu often skipped class and only returned at night to sleep.
Seeing that the bed beside Starry Sky's was covered by black curtains, Xiao Wu was extremely curious.
Xiao Wu was a hundred-thousand-year-old rabbit, after all. Naturally, she did not understand much about shame.
Zhu Zhuqing, on the other hand, had grown up among the refined circles of aristocrats.
When had she ever interacted with boys?
If Starry Sky had not been at Notting Academy, she would never have attended a school where the dormitories did not separate boys and girls.
For privacy's sake, she had put up curtains. Only then could she sleep inside with peace of mind.
Xiao Wu opened the curtains and saw the two inside.
Starry Sky and Zhu Zhuqing had changed into pajamas and were sitting cross-legged on the bed. A board was set before them, and they were playing a game.
Starry Sky's Underwear Formation had already taken shape, and he looked as though victory was within his grasp.
Xiao Wu's sudden intrusion disrupted the two of them.
Zhu Zhuqing's heart raced, and her face reddened. She quickly hugged the pillow beside her and used it to hide her flushed face.
"Y-You... who are you? Don't just look at other people's privacy!"
Zhu Zhuqing was very displeased. Couldn't she see the words "Do Not Disturb" written outside?
When Xiao Wu saw that she was a young girl, she immediately felt a sense of familiarity.
Scratching her head awkwardly, she said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to."
Hearing a girl's voice, Zhu Zhuqing lowered her guard. When she saw Xiao Wu, she was surprised as well.
Xiao Wu was so cute.
At the same time, an inexplicable sourness rose in her heart.
Xiao Wu had been living here with her Brother Kong for so long!
"Xiao Wu, you came back just in time. Once I beat Little Qing, we can play Landlord."
"Brother Kong, you're the one who lost."
Then her black piece landed, connecting five black pieces in a line.
She had won.
There were only five black pieces on the entire board. There were not even any white pieces within two spaces around those five black pieces.
Starry Sky's eyes widened in disbelief.
"That's not right. The internet said that once the Underwear Formation takes shape, it's a guaranteed win."
Looking as though he had swallowed a dead fly, Starry Sky put away the board.
Then he took out a deck of cards.
Zhu Zhuqing did not know how to play, but they could teach her.
Very soon, beneath the little black curtains, came the sounds of "slap, slap, slap."
The sound of playing cards.
The three of them stayed up for a long time before finally going to sleep.
Once Starry Sky felt that everyone else was asleep, he got up and went to find his wives to play with.
"Huh? What is Brother Kong doing at night?"
Zhu Zhuqing had arrived somewhere unfamiliar, so it was not easy for her to fall asleep.
She saw Starry Sky leave.
Curious, she secretly followed him.
She discovered that Starry Sky was not heading for the restroom, but toward the adult dormitories.
He skillfully pushed open a room's door and slipped inside.
Zhu Zhuqing waited outside for a long time, but she never saw Starry Sky come back out.
Unable to resist, she crept closer to eavesdrop.
"Hehehe~~ Sister Mei's jade hands~~"
"I'm freaking eating, eating, eating!"
"Wife Underworld's peaches..."
"I'll gnaw, gnaw, gnaw!"
"Wife Shogun, uh... stop electrocuting me..."
"I'll let go of your jade feet, okay..."
Outside, Zhu Zhuqing swallowed hard.
Starry Sky had actually run here in the middle of the night to eat?
But she had clearly seen him eat so much during the day.
His three older sisters were inside the room as well, so Zhu Zhuqing did not disturb them. She returned to Dorm Seven and only fell asleep after a long while.
Zhu Zhuyun had graduated from elementary school, so she could not remain at Notting Academy. The next day, she returned to Star Luo.
As usual, Starry Sky and Zhu Zhuqing passed little notes to each other during class.
They had thought it would be an ordinary day, but suddenly thunder and lightning filled the skies outside, frightening many students into jumping up from their desks.
"Hiss... My lightning wife found out I gnawed on her jade feet all night and got angry!"
Starry Sky trembled. Raiden Shogun was truly fierce.
If she gave him one slash, he would definitely be dead.
"Brother Kong, look! There's someone with wings flying in the sky! That is... one, two, three, four, five... five ten-thousand-year Soul Rings. H-He's a Titled Douluo!"
Zhu Zhuqing leaned against the windowsill and stared at the sky with a face full of shock!
Above Notting Academy, an old man with dragon wings on his back floated through the air, radiating boundless dominance.
Lightning crackled around him, making him terrifying beyond measure.
"A Titled Douluo? Then it definitely isn't Raiden Shogun getting angry."
He was only a Titled Douluo. Starry Sky was not afraid in the slightest.
He hurried over to the window as well and stared at the man showing off amid the lightning.
"Brother Kong, he seems to be the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's leader, His Excellency Yu Yuanzhen. W-Why has he come here?"
Suddenly, Zhu Zhuqing thought of something and looked at Starry Sky, her eyes filled with shock.
Starry Sky's martial soul was related to lightning. Could he be connected to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?
If he had the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan backing him, it would explain things.
Yet Starry Sky's eyes were filled only with unfamiliarity, along with the look of someone examining a rare animal. What was going on?
"So this is... a Titled Douluo? So powerful!" Tang San had come over as well, his eyes full of longing.
He, Tang San, was also destined to stand at the pinnacle of this world. One day, he would certainly become a Titled Douluo too.
At that moment, Yu Yuanzhen closed his eyes to sense the area. Then he suddenly opened them, his sharp and wild gaze landing on Starry Sky.
"Found you."
Ecstasy surged through him. He had never expected the person possessing that terrifying power of lightning to be only a child.
If he brought such a person back to the clan for training, he would be able to integrate into their family even more easily in the future.
Just as he was about to flash over to Starry Sky, his heart tightened. His gaze fell upon a purple-haired woman in the distance.
The woman stood atop a roof, exuding authority without anger. She held the Naginata of Grass-Cutting Light, and her cold eyes rested on Yu Yuanzhen. He felt as if a pair of icy hands had seized his heart, sinking him into unfathomable depths.
"Who are you, Your Excellency? And what is your relationship with this child?"
With his hands on his hips, Yu Yuanzhen asked domineeringly.
Raiden Shogun did not speak. She merely stood there coldly.
"Hmph! Playing mysterious tricks!"
As the pillar of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Yuanzhen had his own pride.
Today, he would not only take Starry Sky away, but take him away in grand fashion!
Yu Yuanzhen roared and charged at Raiden Shogun. His hands transformed into dragon claws, and with the slightest swing, they seemed capable of tearing through the air.
"Ah! Sister Raiden, run!"
Zhu Zhuqing cried out in panic. Yu Yuanzhen was a Titled Douluo. How could Raiden Shogun, as Zhu Zhuqing understood her, possibly be a match for Yu Yuanzhen?
Tang San sneered from the side. Starry Sky had gotten himself into serious trouble this time, hadn't he?
Once this Titled Douluo killed Starry Sky's three older sisters, he would see how Starry Sky could keep acting so smug.
Moreover, Starry Sky's martial soul existed separately from his body, which reminded Tang San of his teacher Yu Xiaogang's Luo Sanpao.
After Luo Sanpao was bitten by a Mandala Snake, Yu Xiaogang had ultimately been forced to cut off one of his own arms.
That proved that humans and martial souls were closely connected.
If those three were killed, wouldn't Starry Sky be finished too?
