Ning Caichen, Master of Female Ghosts

"President, if you don't have anywhere to stay right now, you can actually come to my dorm. There's no one else there..."

Inside the president's office, with the two of them alone together,

Jiang Zhu gathered her courage and voiced her affection.

A man as outstanding as Xia Wuyou was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If she did not seize this chance now, finding another man this exceptional in the future would likely be harder than climbing to the heavens.

"Mm! Jiang Zhu, I understand how you feel!"

Xia Wuyou knew Jiang Zhu's little thoughts perfectly well.

From the very first time she had seen him, this young girl had been swooning over him.

After learning of his strength and achievements, she had become even more unabashed in showing her admiration.

Now that the two of them were alone in the president's office, this was also the best chance for her to express her feelings to him.

"Jiang Zhu! It's still early. Let's have dinner first! After all, tonight will require some physical effort, and we can't do it on an empty stomach!"

"Besides, your dorm probably doesn't have any spare clothes for men or any men's daily necessities. You can't expect me to stay naked the whole time, can you?"

He was not some incorruptible gentleman like Liu Xiahui, nor was he some devoted romantic who loved only one woman, much less a man of upright virtue.

Before transmigrating to Douluo Continent, he had spent several days and nights in a hotel room discussing the mysteries of human anatomy with a pair of fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged sisters who were also very fond of cosplay.

When it came to women, the more, the better. He would not hang himself from a single tree, much less live or die for one woman.

Douluo Continent was a world where strength reigned supreme. There was no so-called monogamous system, much less Earth's rhetoric about everyone being equal.

"O-okay! President!"

"Then let's have dinner first. On the way back to Yanhuang Academy, we can stop by a shop and buy some daily necessities, as well as a change of clothes for you."

At Xia Wuyou's response, a sweet warmth rose in Jiang Zhu's heart.

She had not expected such a handsome and powerful president to not mind her status as an ordinary commoner.

Otherwise, he would not have needed to care about her feelings or thoughts at all. He could have simply devoured her whole in the president's office.

"Hehe! All right, Jiang Zhu! Stop grinning foolishly here! While we still have time, let's go out and have dinner together!"

Seeing Jiang Zhu still giggling foolishly, Xia Wuyou teleported to her side, wrapped an arm around her slender waist, and pulled her into his embrace.

Then he kissed her directly on the lips.

Simple, direct, and utterly domineering.

"Mm!"

Faced with the sudden domineering kiss, Jiang Zhu's beautiful eyes widened and her body stiffened. Her nose was filled with his crisp yet aggressively invasive scent, and she nearly forgot how to breathe.

Before she could recover, her arms seemed to develop minds of their own as they wrapped around Xia Wuyou's neck, responding to him with all the passion she could muster to convey her feelings.

A moment later, their lips parted.

"President!"

Jiang Zhu's heart was filled with sweetness. Shy and delighted, she did not dare look Xia Wuyou in the eye. She quickly lowered her head and leaned against his broad chest, her cheeks flushed red.

The next second, Xia Wuyou used Spatial Teleportation, taking Jiang Zhu directly out of Yanhuang Academy. In an instant, they arrived at a hotel that was both unfamiliar and familiar.

It was the Seven Treasures Glazed Hotel where he had stayed that morning.

He might not know which restaurants or taverns had good food, which were popular, or which had the most customers.

But he was quite qualified to speak on whether the Seven Treasures Glazed Hotel's food was good, whether its service was satisfactory, whether it was popular, and whether it had a high volume of customers.

Since it had managed to spread its business throughout the Heaven Dou Empire, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect clearly had some real capability.

Besides, this was his second visit, so he was already familiar with the place!

As Xia Wuyou and Jiang Zhu stepped through the hotel entrance, a perceptive, stout middle-aged man immediately approached them with a smile.

He looked to be in his forties. His glossy hair was combed impeccably, and he wore expensive brocade clothing, giving him the air of a successful man.

"Welcome, Your Excellency Wuyou and Miss Jiangzhu. Your presence truly brings honor to our Seven Treasures Glazed Hotel!"

"Allow me to introduce myself. My surname is Ning, and my full name is Ning Caichen. I am the person in charge of this Seven Treasures Glazed Hotel in Heaven Dou City."

Ning Caichen placed his right hand over his left shoulder, bowed slightly, and performed a standard noble's salute.

Xia Wuyou: "Uh... Ning Caichen?"

"Ning Caichen, master of female ghosts? The Ning Caichen who wouldn't even spare female ghosts?"

Upon suddenly hearing that familiar name, Xia Wuyou was stunned for quite a while. His mouth opened slightly as he wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but after thinking it over, he ultimately held back.

"Uh... Manager Ning, hello!"

"I brought my female companion here for dinner. Please make the arrangements."

Ning Caichen was so tactful that Xia Wuyou did not feel it was appropriate to say anything sarcastic.

As for why Ning Caichen knew him and could accurately call out his name, Xia Wuyou understood that perfectly well.

After he had displayed his spirit ring configuration at the entrance of Blue Tyrant Academy, his intelligence profile had likely already been placed on the desks of every major faction's upper ranks.

For example, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family Xue Family.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

As well as Qian Renxue, who was disguised as the Heaven Dou Empire's crown prince, "Xue Qinghe."

There was no need to say much about the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. Heaven Dou City was the home base of their Xue Family.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was much the same. With its sect headquarters located in the Tiandou Mountain Range beside Heaven Dou City, how could Ning Fengzhi possibly not investigate this suddenly appeared neighbor?

There was even less need to mention the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Blue Tyrant Academy, which they used to recruit and train outer disciples, had been taken by this suddenly appeared figure. How could they possibly not know his intelligence?

And once Qian Renxue learned of these matters, it meant that the upper ranks of the entire Spirit Hall would soon turn their attention to him.

Given the current situation, Salas, the Eight-Ring Soul Douluo and master of the Spirit Hall Temple in Heaven Dou City, had likely received news of him long ago.

"Certainly, no problem! Please follow me, Your Excellency Wuyou and Miss Jiangzhu."

Ning Caichen led Xia Wuyou and Jiang Zhu through the hotel with practiced ease, heading toward a luxurious private room decorated in an exquisite and elegant style.

He had just received word that this young man named Xia Wuyou was no ordinary person.

So long as there was no conflict of interest, no one from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect must ever offend him.

He possessed a Space Spirit, had reached the strength of a Seven-Ring Spirit Saint at merely twenty-five years old, and had an utterly shocking spirit ring configuration of Three Purple Three Black One Red.

He had defeated Liu Erlong, also a Seven-Ring Spirit Saint, in a single move, effortlessly seized Blue Tyrant Academy, and expelled everyone connected to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Each and every one of these events fully proved Xia Wuyou's strength and wisdom.
