An Unexpectedly Exposed History of Light Plume Crown's Romantic Feelings

"Thank you, Master."

Han Li took the documents to his face and cupped his hands in greeting to Broad Hill.

"Okay, stop smiling at me, or I might not be able to resist slapping you."

Broad Hill pretended to be uncomfortable and shivered, giving a disgusted look.

When do you plan to go to the Star Dou Great Forest?

Broad Hill asked Han Li, who was looking at the documents.

"It'll be in the next two or three days. I'll go check with Sister Yan later and confirm the time with them," Han Li replied without looking up.

"Sister Yan, you call her that so intimately. I'd like to see how you explain this to Xiu'er when you get back. Don't come crying to me and your senior uncle if you can't handle it," Broad Hill teased.

"No, don't worry. If you really have the time, why don't you find me a master's wife? By the way, Spirit Vulture Douluo from the Elder Hall is quite good, and she's younger than you. I've heard she has quite a few suitors, but with your looks and current cultivation, you're still very competitive."

"If you can win her over, I'll give you that Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower as a betrothal gift. Maybe you'll end up marrying a Phoenix Douluo, who will give me a junior brother who's got both ice and fire powers, and will follow the same path as me. I might even be able to help him out."

"Decades later, a family with four Douluo will truly be a source of pride, their fame resounding throughout the continent. What do you think?"

As he spoke, Han Li had already written down the information. He looked up at his master and joked.

What was originally just a casual joke caught Han Li's eye as he saw a flicker of interest on Broad Hill's face.

Ha, she's been persuaded. This looks promising. Han Li watched with amusement.

After a long while, Broad Hill finally snapped out of his reverie and realized that his apprentice was staring at his face, trying to figure out his expression. He couldn't help but blush, slammed his hand on the table, and pointed towards the door.

"Get out, you wicked disciple! You actually dared to watch your master's misfortune! Get out of here right now and go find your little snake. Just let me know when you've set a time. I have things to do these next few days, so don't come looking for me unless it's important."

Han Li inwardly laughing wildly, but dared not show it too obviously on his face.

Seeing his master's somewhat embarrassed and angry expression, he quickly got up and ran towards the door.

As he was leaving and closing the door, he poked his head back in. "Master, don't be shy, I've saved the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower for you. When you get back, just let me know if you need it, and I'll deliver it to you tonight."

"Bang"

A book crashed onto the door that had just been closed. Sensing trouble, Han Li had already slipped away.

Broad Hill glanced at the closed door, chuckled, shook her head, and slowly got up to pick up the book again. However, she couldn't calm down the mind disturbed by Han Li's words.

Spirit Hall.

Han Li walked alone on the streets of Heaven Dou Imperial City after refusing Rosa Go's request to follow him. He was in a very good mood.

This was, in fact, the first time he and Broad Hill had successfully fought each other since becoming master and disciple, and they had even managed to escape.

After running away, he finally came to his senses.

It shouldn't be that his few words touched his master's heartstrings. Judging from Broad Hill's reaction, it's because he had long harbored evil intentions, but for some reason, he hadn't put them into action.

It wasn't until he unintentionally revealed it today that there was such a strong reaction; otherwise, given Broad Hill's usual behavior, she would have already chased after him and beaten him up.

He didn't believe that with his current strength, he could successfully escape from Broad Hill's clutches.

Forget it, we'll talk about it when we get back. Anyway, at the age of Titled Douluo, a little longer won't make a difference.

He shook his head, putting his thoughts to the back of his mind. He then determined the direction and headed towards the DuGu Family's residence.

After a polite knock, Han Li handed over the token that Dugu Bo had prepared for him, and was then respectfully ushered inside by a servant.

In the front courtyard living room, after receiving hot tea from the servants, Han Li learned that Dugu Bo had gone out that morning. He nodded and told them to call Dugu Yan, then idly observed the scenery in the courtyard.

Well, there's no scenery to speak of, just an ordinary mansion. In fact, because the DuGu Family is small, there aren't even many servants.

He didn't have to wait long, only about three minutes, when a girl in a light green dress ran out from the back of the living room, accompanied by a fragrant breeze, and hung directly on him.

"Why did you arrive so early?"

Dugu Yan was actually a little taller than Han Li, but she clung to him like a little girl and refused to get up.

"Good morning? It's already afternoon," Han Li said with a smile.

"I don't care, it's still early anyway." Dugu Yan bumped her head against him unreasonably.

"Okay, so it's still early? If not, I'll come back tomorrow?"

Han Li made a move to take a step, but Dugu Yan pressed him back down into his seat.

"Alright, get up first. Your Grandfather might be back soon. If he sees you like this, he'll beat me up." Han Li pushed Dugu Yan off him.

"Hmph, ╭(╯^╰)╮, don't think I don't know. His Light Plume Crown told me a long time ago that he actually wanted to introduce me to you as your fiancée, Mingdu hadn't asked me yet."

Dugu Yan replied irritably, but still got up from him and sat down on a chair next to him.

Han Li smiled awkwardly and didn't reply; this was a difficult question for him to answer.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at him but didn't continue to dwell on the topic.

"By the way, when the senior left, did he say what he was going out to do?"

Han Li picked up the hot tea and took a sip before looking at Dugu Yan.

"No, he just told the servant and left. I only found out when I woke up."

Dugu Yan played with her hair that was hanging down on the right side with her fingers and replied lazily.

"Did he tell you when we're going to set off to get the Soul Ring?"

Han Li admired Dugu Yan's demeanor and asked a question.

"He said it depends on your arrangements. Anyway, after he accompanies us to the Star Dou Great Forest, he will return to Heaven Dou City."

As Dugu Yan finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something, let go of her hair, sat up again, leaned on the table between the two of them, and spoke mysteriously.

"Xiao Li, is what Grandfather said true? You are very lucky, and sometimes you can even foresee things that will benefit you and your loved ones."

"Yes, that's right, but it's not under my control."

Han Li raised an eyebrow. It seemed that his master had made some modifications to him.

"So, what you were saying the other day, talking in a mystical way, was actually a prophecy?"

Dugu Yan lowered her voice, but could not hide the excitement in her tone.

Hearing her description, Han Li couldn't help but feel a black line appear on his forehead. What kind of weird description was this?

He clearly had an expression of indifference to external gains or losses, and his voice was hollow.

Forget it, I won't stoop to their level. They don't understand the mysterious power from another world.

"Hmm? And then?"

Han Li looked at Miss Dugu with amusement, wondering what her problem was.
