Returning to the Village, Lu Fan's Tenderness

His pride and joy, the top-tier beast spirit Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Seemed like a mere toddler in the presence of Lu Fan's immortal herb, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

However, this was also related to the fact that most of Lu Fan's soul skills were augmentation-type.

Augmentation soul skills were the kind that would continue to be effective even after one broke through to become a Title Douluo in the future.

Naturally, this was also because Lu Fan had absolute confidence in his ability to become a Title Douluo.

Such a soul ring selection was only suitable for geniuses who had the potential to cultivate to the rank of Soul Saint.

For someone like Gangzi, giving him augmentation soul skills would only make him weaker.

This wasn't just aimlessly trashing Gangzi.

If Gangzi were to obtain two augmentation skills, he would truly be finished.

Unable to break through level 30, Gangzi wouldn't even be able to perform his only trick: farting.

After witnessing Lu Fan's strength, Not only Qin Ming, But the other students of the Heaven Dou Royal Team also took turns inviting Lu Fan to join them.

But Lu Fan refused them all the same.

Even when the two great beauties, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, stepped forward to extend an invitation, They were met only with Lu Fan's refusal.

However, Lu Fan did say, "Although I cannot join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I am planning a trip to Heaven Dou City this month. If the opportunity arises, I would like to visit and observe the grandeur of the Royal Academy."

Hearing this, Dugu Yan smiled and agreed: "Alright, then come find Lingling and me when you arrive, and we will take you on a tour of the academy."

Ye Lingling, standing to the side, also nodded in agreement.

Lu Fan smiled: "Then many thanks, Sister Yanzi."

Although the time spent together was short, With the connection through Qin Ming, And the fact that Lu Fan himself was an exceptionally outstanding individual, He quickly established a good rapport with everyone from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Perhaps there will be a chance to encounter Qian Renxue on this trip to Heaven Dou City.

Lu Fan thought to himself.

He was quite curious about what kind of 'genius' would abandon an innate soul power of level 20 just to go undercover.

And this was something even Qian Daoliu had permitted.

That was truly brain-dead.

Of course, what he wanted to see even more was Qian Renxue's true appearance.

It was said that Qian Renxue was a strong contender for the title of the most beautiful person in the Douluo world.

As someone who appreciated beauty, Lu Fan naturally wanted to see it with his own eyes.

Of course, he only wanted to see it.

What he held in his heart was merely a yearning for beautiful things, not biological lust.

They arrived in Suotuo City in the afternoon.

Lu Fan said to Qin Ming: "Senior Qin, it is getting late. Why don't you wait until tomorrow to visit your teachers? How about I come to the hotel to find you all tomorrow at noon?"

Qin Ming nodded: "Very well. If you have matters to attend to, Junior Brother Lu, go ahead. This time is perfect for me to take the students to experience the Great Soul Arena of Suotuo City. See you tomorrow."

Hearing this, Lu Fan smiled and agreed: "See you tomorrow."

After waving goodbye to Dugu Yan and the others, Lu Fan boarded a carriage and departed with his guards.

A hint of nostalgia couldn't help but surface in his eyes.

The Great Soul Arena of Suotuo City was the 'entertainment' venue he used to frequent the most.

After parting ways with the people from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Lu Fan did not return to Shrek Academy.

Instead, he left the city and headed toward Flower Grass Village.

In the past, he would return to Flower Grass Village once every year.

Every time he returned, he would stay in his old little house for two or three days.

It was a form of remembrance, Remembering the days when he only needed to plant flowers and grass every day.

No need for cultivation, no need for various worries, or the need to calculate this and that—those carefree times.

That was a nostalgia for childhood.

Flower Grass Village was not far from Suotuo City.

The people in this village had a high probability of awakening soul power.

This was because the probability of their parents' generation being soul masters was also very high.

However, the people in this village possessed little combat strength.

Therefore, they were not valued by any faction.

Most people in the village would head to the noble mansions in nearby cities to work as gardeners.

This could be considered the villagers' innate talent.

Moreover, because of the large number of soul masters, everyone could receive a subsidy from Martial Soul Hall, so the village was not as impoverished as villages like Holy Soul Village that lacked special productivity.

It was even better than Grass Chicken Village, the hometown of Ma Hongjun, which was not far away.

That village could rely on chicken farming to become famous, ensuring everyone was well-fed and even allowing them to save some spare money.

The closer one got to the village, the more flowers there were in the surroundings.

Approaching the village entrance, Lu Fan sat outside the carriage, feeling the air here filled with the fragrance of flowers.

"Ah, Brother Xiao Fan is back!"

Several children playing at the village entrance saw Lu Fan, and they immediately dropped what they were doing, enthusiastically surrounding him.

"Xiao Mei, Xiao Lan, Jasmine, Gouwazi, Little Monkey, long time no see."

Looking at these children who were a few years younger than him, a warm smile like that of a neighbor's big brother appeared on Lu Fan's face.

He climbed down from the carriage, and those children immediately surrounded him.

Lu Fan smiled and took out the special pastries he had bought beforehand from his storage bag; these pastries were only available in Martial Soul City.

"These are things I brought back from the city, have a taste."

Lu Fan distributed the pastries to the children.

What child doesn't love sweets?

Each of them showed a joyful expression, smiling as they took them from Lu Fan's hands.

"Thank you, Brother Xiao Fan."

Lu Fan affectionately reached out and ruffled the hair of one of the children, then asked the group: "You all are about to awaken your martial souls, right? Are any of you already six years old? If so, I can help you awaken them while I'm here."

Some of the children were filled with excitement, while others showed regret.

"I'm six years old, Brother Xiao Fan!"

The one speaking was the girl Lu Fan called Xiao Mei.

The reason she was called that was because both of her parents' martial souls were plum blossoms.

Therefore, her martial soul would likely be a plum blossom as well.

That was why her parents gave her such a nickname.

Out of the five children, only one had turned six.

Lu Fan nodded: "Alright, then come back to the village with me first. Later, follow me to the village's Martial Soul Hall, and I will help you awaken your martial soul."

"Thank you, Brother Xiao Fan."

Being able to have her martial soul awakened by Lu Fan personally, Xiao Mei seemed very happy.

She opened her mouth wide when she smiled, creating two red dimples on her cheeks, which looked very cute.

"Ah, I also really want Brother Xiao Fan to awaken my martial soul!"

The other children who couldn't awaken their souls yet felt a bit dejected.

Seeing this, Lu Fan comforted them: "It's alright, it's the same no matter who awakens your martial soul. However, if you really want me to, I will come back again next month. If any of you need it by then, I can help you out too~"

"Really!"

The children who would turn six by that time were very happy to hear that Lu Fan would actually be coming back next month.

"Of course."

Lu Fan gently reached out and stroked his head, his movements very light and tender.

"Walking is tiring; get into the carriage and rest for a while."

Lu Fan lifted the five children into the carriage one by one.

The carriage he had rented was spacious enough to seat three or four adults, so accommodating a mere five small children was absolutely no problem.

As one of the children was about to enter the carriage, they tugged on the corner of Lu Fan's robe.

"Brother Xiao Fan, you come up too."

Lu Fan nodded with a smile: "Alright."
