Between Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, Who Exactly Is the Little Doctor?

"Lingling, come here."

Thinking of everything that had happened in the past, Yu Tianjiao couldn't help feeling a wave of emotion. He gazed warmly at the graceful woman with her slender willow waist and beckoned with a smile.

At his words, Ye Lingling didn't ask why or wonder what Yu Tianjiao wanted her to do. She simply stepped closer to him.

The next moment, right in front of the many students and faculty members from Heaven Dou Royal Academy who had come to welcome him, Yu Tianjiao pulled Ye Lingling into his arms.

With Dugu Yan in his left arm and Ye Lingling in his right, he looked so confident and composed, as if he were still the peerless prodigy of years ago—the dazzling genius who had rewritten the history of the Soul Master World!

The new students who didn't know him were so jealous their teeth nearly ground together. Those who did know him were delighted that he'd regained his ability to cultivate and returned to the academy, but they also envied his skill at having a beauty in each arm.

But jealous?

Give me a break. Back when this guy was only Level 42, he'd already been chasing teachers over Level 50 and beating them up!

He had the ability to enjoy the blessings of a household filled with beauties!

Besides, couldn't they see that the two beauties themselves didn't mind?

Dugu Yan had known for a long time that Ye Lingling and Yu Tianjiao had always been close. What's more, Yu Tianjiao was the one who'd called Ye Lingling over. Was she really going to storm off over a little private displeasure?

She wasn't stupid. If she left, wouldn't Ye Lingling have Yu Tianjiao all to herself?

Even though she and Ye Lingling had teamed up for Soul Fighting over the past year and gotten along quite well, she absolutely wasn't going to hand Yu Tianjiao over to Ye Lingling.

At worst, they could be sisters who shared a bed!

Anyway, nobody would say a word if a Soul Master as powerful as Yu Tianjiao had lots of women.

Right now, she just wanted to enjoy being in Yu Tianjiao's arms.

Hehe, his pectoral muscles were so springy...

Unlike Dugu Yan, who was already enjoying herself like a lovestruck fool, Ye Lingling was more introverted. Being held in Yu Tianjiao's arms in front of so many people made her feel a little shy.

She wasn't a teenage girl anymore, so she naturally understood that Yu Tianjiao was declaring his claim.

Even though Dugu Yan was in his arms with her, Ye Lingling didn't feel jealous or anything like that. She was simply embarrassed.

In her eyes, Yu Tianjiao was a very powerful person.

Although he was much younger than her, when they were together, she was the one who seemed younger.

He had always been gentle with her and had taken especially good care of her.

He was so dazzling, too: the young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, with a top-tier Martial Soul, astonishing talent, powerful combat ability—all the marks of a genius gathered in one person. People could only look up to him, never get close.

She didn't know when she had started thinking about this strong yet gentle boy from time to time.

It wasn't until three years ago, when his Soul Power began to mysteriously disappear and his halo seemed to fade, that she found the courage to approach him.

She'd desperately wanted to cure him and make him the brightest star in the sky again.

But she'd also selfishly thought that if he could just stay this way, she might be able to remain by his side forever.

Yes, she was only a support-type Soul Master. No matter how many rings she had, her Soul Skills amounted to just one thing: healing.

According to the most common, almost unspoken rule of the Soul Master World, she should have followed the example of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and found a powerful Power Attack System Soul Master to protect her for the rest of her life.

But she didn't want that.

The Nine Heart Begonia was a miraculous Martial Soul passed down through a single lineage. That meant most people wouldn't want her to die easily, so she could be with Yu Tianjiao without worry.

But even without that, she would still have chosen to stay by Yu Tianjiao's side.

Because she really liked him.

Yu Tianjiao had of course noticed the feelings the two young women were showing, but right now he was thinking about something else.

[You set out to gain experience and arrived in Green Mountain Town, where you met the Little Doctor Fairy the mercenaries spoke of. Her waist was slender, so fine it seemed you could encircle it with one hand.

While resting, you went into the forest to relieve yourself and happened upon her secret. To your surprise, she attacked you first, but you easily defeated her.

When you approached, however, she suddenly struck, scattering poisonous powder. Luckily, you reacted in time and dodged it.

Nearly caught off guard, you grew angry, pinned her beneath you, and decided to teach her a lesson!

[Please punish the Little Doctor Fairy and show her what you're capable of!

[Reward: Seven-Colored Poison Manual, Flying Soul Skill *1, Attack Soul Skill *1.]

Punish the Little Doctor Fairy?

Wait, who had I pinned beneath me?

Yu Tianjiao looked at the two beautiful women in his arms, each with her own charm, and was momentarily dumbfounded.

Dugu Yan's Martial Soul was poisonous, and its poison would even backfire on her, so she could just about fit the Woeful Poison Body setting.

But the system prompt had appeared only after he'd hugged Ye Lingling.

Could Ye Lingling be the Little Doctor Fairy?

But right now, he was only holding them. He hadn't pinned them beneath him!

And he was supposed to punish them?

Give me a break. With all these people watching, how was he supposed to punish them?

Never mind. The quest had no time limit, so he'd deal with it in private later!

"Cough, cough. All right, I know you're close, but there are so many people watching. Try to be mindful of appearances..."

Just as Yu Tianjiao was wondering how he could complete the quest, a helpless voice suddenly came from beside him.

At the sound, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling finally came to their senses. Without realizing it, they'd both been lost in Yu Tianjiao's embrace. Now that someone had pointed it out, they were too embarrassed to keep it up, so they reluctantly let go of him.

Seeing the reluctance on their faces, Yu Tianjiao narrowed his eyes. He lowered his head and whispered in their ears:

"I've missed you too. Come to my dorm tonight, and we'll talk."

The two women froze. Then, as if they'd thought of something, their ears turned red. They exchanged a glance, bit their lips, and nodded at Yu Tianjiao before slipping back into the crowd.

"Teacher Qin, long time no see."

Yu Tianjiao smiled at Qin Ming as well.

Honestly, even though Qin Ming had come from Shrek Academy, Yu Tianjiao didn't dislike him. From a student's point of view, he was a good teacher.

"I heard your cultivation talent has finally recovered. What level are you now? Would you like me to put together a training plan for you?"

Qin Ming came over, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile.

"I've just recovered to Level 14, but my physical fitness is even better than it was back then. I'll have to trouble you to put in some extra effort."

Yu Tianjiao briefly explained his situation.

"I see. Looks like you won't have to start from scratch. Come by this afternoon. I'll take a look at your current condition and then design a training plan."

Qin Ming nodded thoughtfully.

"All right. Sorry for the trouble."

Yu Tianjiao nodded and smiled.
