This Tea Is Not That Tea

Spirit Hall, Elder Hall.

Time passed quickly. Shen Nuonuo had now been in Douluo for nearly half a month.

Over the past half month, Shen Nuonuo had taken Qian Renxue through morning exercises, reading, and sleeping together every day. The two sisters were so close they were practically one person.

Shen Nuonuo felt that life in Spirit Hall was truly incomparably comfortable. She ate and drank well every day and did whatever she wanted!

Ding. Detected that the Host is entertaining lazy thoughts. Hidden task triggered: Please teach Qian Jun and Jiangmo Douluo Tea Art! Reward: 1,000 Points and one A-Class Summoning Card.

Summoning Card tasks are only available once per year. Host, please cherish this hard-earned card~

What kind of Tea Art?

Shen Nuonuo remembered that Qian Jun and Jiang Mo in the original novel were just like Steel Straight Men from Little Blue Star.

Tea Art did not suit them, did it?

More importantly, she was not some Little Green Tea either!

She did not know how to do that stuff.

How foolish of you. This tea is not that tea.

The system rambled on in an overly literary manner.

Heh heh. Explain yourself. Was it real tea or fake tea? Shen Nuonuo could not help rolling her eyes.

This Big Fool always said things that were so easy to misunderstand. Could she be blamed for that?

What are you thinking about! Of course it is the Tea Art that cultivates one's character and temperament. Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. You just need to teach them the basics of brewing tea. The system clicked its tongue twice.

"Fine, I understand. You may withdraw!" Shen Nuonuo prepared to get up and wash.

Of the Enshrined, she had only yet to meet the Second, Fourth, Sixth, and Seventh Enshrined since coming here.

This reward was even better than Points!

She could get a Summoning Card!

As usual, Shen Nuonuo changed into a set of pure white sportswear. After breakfast, she took Qian Renxue to the Garden to prepare for morning exercises.

To her surprise, Qingluan Douluo was already waiting for them there early in the morning.

"Third Enshrined!"

"Third Grandfather!"

Shen Nuonuo and Qian Renxue both greeted Qingluan Douluo.

"Nuonuo, Little Xue." Qingluan Douluo wore a gentle smile.

"Third Grandfather, did you come to practice Tai Chi with us today?" Qian Renxue asked as she stretched along with Shen Nuonuo.

Shen Nuonuo raised her brows. It seemed Qingluan Douluo had finally run out of patience.

The methods written in the books were very detailed, but if one could learn simply by reading a book, what would teachers be needed for?

That was why, whether on Little Blue Star or in Douluo, the role of a teacher could never be replaced.

"Ahem, yes." Qingluan Douluo had initially wanted to deny it, but when he met Shen Nuonuo's half-smiling gaze, he helplessly admitted it outright.

He had looked at that thick stack of books. He recognized every word, yet when they were put together, why could he not understand them?

How strange!

Shen Nuonuo thought Qingluan Douluo was quite an odd fellow for enduring so many days before coming to her. "Then, Third Enshrined, Little Xue and I will perform a set first. You can follow along with the book."

Hmm, if she made a Soul Guide Video someday, she could benefit all of Douluo.

"Alright." Qingluan Douluo agreed and watched them very seriously.

Since Qingluan Douluo was a beginner, Shen Nuonuo deliberately slowed her movements. She stood with her feet together, raised her arms forward, bent her knees, and pressed down with her palms.

Step by step, punch by punch.

Strength arose from the heart, force moved in spirals; softness overcame hardness, transformation and attack became one. This was Tai Chi.

Ten minutes later, they finished a full set.

After finishing, Shen Nuonuo turned around and met Qingluan Douluo's focused gaze directly. She saw that he had not even had time to retract his fist.

Qingluan Douluo hurriedly withdrew the movement. His ears instantly reddened, and his gaze wandered about uneasily.

Shen Nuonuo found it amusing.

Heh, the Third Enshrined looks so cold and aloof, but he is actually this easily embarrassed.

You really cannot judge a person by their appearance.

Qian Renxue covered her mouth and secretly laughed as well.

"By the way, Third Enshrined, do you know where Fifth Grandfather went?" Shen Nuonuo recalled what she had asked Qingluan Douluo to do a few days ago.

"Fifth Elder seems to have gone to Gengxin City. I do not know exactly why." Qingluan Douluo's expression carried a trace of doting affection when he spoke of Guangling Douluo.

He had asked Fifth Elder why he was going there, but Guangling had refused to tell him.

Damn! Could the rumors be true? Seeing the look in Qingluan Douluo's eyes, Shen Nuonuo immediately sensed something fishy between Azure Luan and Guangling!

Both Qingluan Douluo and Qian Renxue were curious about what rumor she meant, quietly waiting for the gossip.

So the Luan Ling CP is real! No wonder Azure Luan's words to Guangling during the great battle sounded so different!

Shen Nuonuo recalled what Qingluan Douluo had said to Guangling Douluo during the battle at Jialing Pass.

It was just one sentence, but it was rather sweet!

Fifth Elder, no playing around!

Qingluan Douluo had never expected that the gossip would somehow land on his own head.

Help, he only treated Guangling as his younger brother!

Their relationship was purely brotherly, right?

Azure Luan suddenly became a little uncertain.

"Ahem, Nuonuo, what did you need Guangling for?"

Qingluan Douluo coughed again.

"Ah? Sorry, my mind wandered just now. Could you say that again?"

Shen Nuonuo had been too absorbed in the gossip to notice a single word he had said.

That was rather awkward.

Qingluan Douluo was even more helpless and could only repeat what he had just said.

"Gengxin City in the Star Luo Empire?" Shen Nuonuo's eyes lit up. How had she forgotten about this Metal Capital!

This was the place that supplied the raw materials for Tang San's hidden weapons in the original novel.

"What other Gengxin City could there be? The Heaven Dou Imperial Family does not have a place by that name!"

Qingluan Douluo smiled gently.

"Oh, right!"

Shen Nuonuo thought Guangling Douluo was quite reliable. He had gone straight to the Metal Capital to make the purchase!

It was such a long journey. He had worked hard!

"You asked Guangling to buy metal over there?"

Seeing Shen Nuonuo's expression, Qingluan Douluo vaguely guessed what was going on.

"Yes."

Shen Nuonuo had not actually expected Guangling Douluo to go personally. He could have simply sent someone for such a small matter.

Still, she was quite touched.

It was the thought that counted.

"If you need anything in the future, you can come to me as well."

Qingluan Douluo bent down and gently patted Shen Nuonuo's shoulder.

He would definitely be more reliable at handling matters than Fifth Elder!

"Uh, I happen to have something right now. I'm not sure whether I should say it..."

Since Qingluan Douluo was here, Shen Nuonuo wondered whether meeting Qian Jun and Jiang Mo would not be difficult.

"Go ahead." Qingluan Douluo was interested too, wanting to see what she needed him to do.

"Mm, I want to meet the Sixth Enshrined and Seventh Enshrined and demonstrate Tea Art for them!"

Shen Nuonuo spoke quickly. In any case, she would only demonstrate it once. Whether they learned it or not was none of her business.

"What? You want to demonstrate Tea Art for them?"

Qingluan Douluo cleared his throat, somewhat surprised.

Shen Nuonuo nodded. She knew it was rather strange, but there was no helping it. The Summoning Card was too tempting!

"Are you familiar with them?"

Qingluan Douluo's brows furrowed slightly. As he recalled it, Sixth Enshrined and Seventh Enshrined had not left their rooms at all since Shen Nuonuo arrived.
