Chen Yue: "What Good Are Buns with No Meat in Them?"

"But why did I have to become a teacher?"

Chen Yue was somewhat confused. "And at Heavenly Water Academy, no less?"

"If I remembered correctly, Heavenly Water Academy was a... uh, all-female academy. Isn't it a bit much to send a grown man like me there as a teacher?"

Gu Qingbo leaned her little head closer with a grin. "Correction: it's an academy full of beautiful women~!"

Chen Yue: "..."

"Um, Uncle-in-law, if I guessed right... Auntie wants you to take a concubine!"

Chen Yue: "..."

"I heard her talking in her sleep that day. She seemed really afraid of you!"

Chen Yue: "..."

Without the slightest mercy, he rapped her on the head. "Once I'm able to take concubines, you'll be the first one I take. Then you'll be just like your aunt—walking around with your tail tucked between your legs whenever you see me!"

Gu Qingbo: "..."

"Uncle-in-law, you're actually plotting something improper against me!"

Chen Yue gave a disdainful laugh and shot her a contemptuous look. "What good are those buns of yours with no meat in them?"

"Even the streets of Skywater City aren't as flat as you!"

Gu Qingbo: "..."

Ahhh, I'm so mad!

I really want to beat him up!

Gu Qingbo waved her fists in fury. "Uncle-in-law, you've gone too far!"

"If there's nothing else, stop blocking the way. I'm going out!"

Chen Yue ruthlessly shoved her aside. Walking to the door, he stretched lazily and felt the bright sunshine on his face. He could not help but sigh. "Forget it. I'm just a live-in son-in-law—I don't have the right to say no!"

Setting aside his martial soul theory, he was only a Level 49 Soul Ancestor now. He had no qualifications to refuse at all; he did not even have the right to say no.

In any case, ever since arriving in Skywater City, Chen Yue had already prepared himself mentally. As long as they did not cut off any of his parts and still treated him like a person, that was enough!

Therefore!

Though he felt somewhat dissatisfied, he did not take it too seriously. Before long, he received his teacher's uniform and Teacher ID from Gu Wuji.

It really did look a bit like the doctoral robes from his previous life.

As for the Teacher ID... it was simple. In a place like Heavenly Water Academy, which was filled with beautiful women, he probably would not even be able to enter through the academy gates without it. After all, he was the only member of the opposite sex...

Yet even with the Teacher ID, Chen Yue was searched at the entrance. Only after producing the certificate issued by the Gu Family did the academy guards finally let him through.

"You're Chen Yue?"

Along the way, Chen Yue braced himself against the curious, astonished, strange, and all manner of other looks from the many beautiful female students. At last, he arrived at the academic affairs office and met Heavenly Water Academy's principal.

The principal was a mature woman who looked to be only around thirty. A Teacher ID hung from her chest, and Chen Yue glanced at it, seeing her name: Shui Bingyue.

"Shui Bingyue?"

"Don't tell me... this principal is the mother of those sisters, Shui Yuer and Shui Bing'er?"

Chen Yue looked more closely. Sure enough, Shui Bingyue's face bore some traces of resemblance to the two sisters.

"Vice Principal Gu has already told me about your situation, but I don't entirely believe it..."

Shui Bingyue paid no attention to Chen Yue's gaze. She had seen looks like that more times than she could count and had long grown used to them. Her expression remained unchanged as she said calmly, "So, I need you to summon your martial soul and soul rings... huh?"

Before she could finish, her words came to an abrupt halt. Seeing the purple and black lights flashing within the office, she fell into deep thought. "..."
