"No need to trouble yourself, Teacher Chu." Ye Lingling linked her arm through Dugu Yan's, smiling, "We can head back on our own!"
Thinking of the brawl at the Light and Shadow Theater, Chu Men felt a bit uneasy hearing this.
"Although Heaven Dou City is the capital, but..."
"Don't worry, Teacher Chu, there will be guards secretly escorting us."
Ye Lingling's voice remained as gentle as ever.
Only then did Chu Men remember that the two young girls before him were not just students of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but bona fide nobles!
Especially with Ye Lingling's Nine-Heart Begonia, its importance went without saying; how could there not be someone protecting her in the shadows?
Chu Men nodded, "In that case, we shall part ways here."
"Teacher Chu, we'll come find you at your Soul Guidance Shop tomorrow afternoon. You wouldn't mind, would you?"
Seeing Chu Men being held by Xiao Wu, Dugu Yan felt a bit sour inside and gathered the courage to ask.
Chu Men rolled his eyes and put on the look of a crafty merchant, "Two free little laborers? I couldn't ask for more! Hahaha!"
Xiao Wu, who had been dozing off on Chu Men's back, had been on the verge of sleep, but she opened her eyes immediately upon hearing this!
She tugged at Chu Men's hair and muttered in a low voice, "You weird uncle, you still have to teach me tomorrow!"
After saying this, she shot a defiant look at Dugu Yan before burying her face back into Chu Men's shoulder, clutching his neck tightly to stake her claim!
Chu Men felt his scalp tingle from the tugging and smiled helplessly.
"It's fine, just come over and sit for a while. This little girl talks a big game, but she's actually quite restless. If she can sit by the desk for an hour, I'll be burning incense in gratitude... Hiss! Easy, easy!"
"Then tomorrow afternoon, don't be a no-show!"
The blush on Dugu Yan's face hadn't faded, and she didn't dare look Chu Men in the eye, only tugging gently on Ye Lingling's sleeve.
Ye Lingling stepped forward, bowed to Chu Men with poise, and said in a soft voice:
"Teacher Chu, then we shall trouble you!"
The two turned and walked side by side into the bustle of the night market.
Only after walking a long way did Dugu Yan sneak a glance back at Chu Men's figure, her heart beating even faster.
Her small hand uncontrollably touched her lower abdomen, and as she recalled that strange sensation, her pretty face turned beet red.
She preemptively struck at Ye Lingling, who was looking over at her:
"Lingling, you seem to like Teacher Chu quite a bit!"
"Look who's talking. I don't know who was moaning so... oh my, I really didn't expect our academy's little Jade Phosphor Snake to have such a seductive side!"
Dugu Yan was embarrassed into anger, "You dead girl, have you gone mad? See if I don't make you taste that feeling tonight..."
"Sister Yan, I was wrong, I surrender~"
On the other side.
Chu Men carried the soundly sleeping Xiao Wu, walking slowly toward the Star Soul Guidance Shop.
After leaving the night market, the streets were very quiet, with only scattered streetlamps emitting a dim, yellow light.
Xiao Wu's breath brushed lightly against Chu Men's neck, warm and ticklish.
Her scorpion braid hung down to his chest, swaying gently with his footsteps.
After turning into the alley, even the streetlamps disappeared.
[Sister Xiao Wu is sleeping so soundly!]
[The ninth hour of missing Sister Erlong.]
[Regardless, there's a good show to watch tomorrow!]
Chu Men wandered back to the Star Soul Guidance Shop, and as soon as he pushed the door open, he froze.
The lights in the shop were on, and Liu Erlong was lying on the front desk chair, the air conditioning running, her legs propped up on the table.
Her phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, looking incredibly content!
Liu Erlong wore a black silk dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she was wearing a pair of Chu Men's slippers.
Seeing Chu Men enter with Xiao Wu on his back, she slightly raised her eyelids, the corners of her mouth curling into a playful, enigmatic arc.
"Back?"
Liu Erlong's voice was airy, her gaze falling on the sleeping Xiao Wu, "Did you have fun at the night market?"
[High-energy warning! Out carousing late at night, caught red-handed by the main wife upon returning home!]
[Sister Erlong: This lady waited for you for three hours, yet you went to accompany another woman! Don't say anything, just kneel on the hot coals!]
[Dragon Gate Faction rejoices! Streamer, don't be a coward, boldly engage, now is the time!]
"So-so, I suppose!"
Chu Men placed Xiao Wu on the sofa, took off his coat to cover her, and continued, "Our Heaven Dou City night market is quite lively and worth a visit. But what brings you here so late, my lady?"
Liu Erlong lazily stretched her neck and shoulders, laughing, "It's nice and cool here!"
"You're the famous Fire Dragon Soul Saint, are you really afraid of a little heat?"
Chu Men saw the half-bowl of sweet mung bean soup beside Liu Erlong and took one for himself from the nearby refrigerator.
Liu Erlong praised, "This refrigeration Soul-Guided Device of yours is much more useful than a Soul Master."
"Every trade has its own purpose."
Chu Men slurped his mung bean soup and said casually, "By the way, the Fire Dragon Battle Armor is finished. Since you're here, you might as well take it back!"
As he spoke, he flipped his wrist and retrieved the Fire Dragon Battle Armor, which had cost him a great deal of effort, from his Storage Bag!
The moment the armor landed on the table, it emitted a dull thud.
Liu Erlong's eyes lit up instantly.
She lowered her long legs from the table, stood up, and walked over.
Her black silk dress swayed gently with her movements, outlining her firm and powerful curves!
She reached out to stroke the cold dragon scales on the armor, her fingertips tracing every line on its surface, her eyes filled with obsession.
This armor was the culmination of the collective efforts of many excellent designers from the real world; in terms of visual impact, it was nothing short of perfect!
Dominant yet powerful, exquisite yet gorgeous—every angle and every arc struck a chord deep within Liu Erlong's heart!
"It's so beautiful!" she whispered in praise.
Chu Men could even clearly see the movement of Liu Erlong's throat as she swallowed.
The next second, the crimson soul power throughout her body began to surge.
The Fire Dragon Battle Armor automatically disassembled, tracing arcs through the air as it attached itself to her piece by piece.
In just a moment, Liu Erlong had finished equipping it!
The armor fit her body perfectly; the crimson dragon scales wrapped around her like a second skin, tightly outlining her breathtaking curves.
Her full chest, slender waist, and firm legs were accentuated by the Fire Dragon Battle Armor, which not only added a heroic warrior's spirit but also greatly enhanced her feminine allure.
It radiated a beauty that could only be described as wild!
The dragon head pattern on her chest dazzled brilliantly as soul power was injected into it.
It rose and fell slightly with her breathing, as if it were about to break free at any moment!
The dragon wings on her back slowly unfurled, their strong frames supporting a massive wingspan, and the entire room was bathed in the scorching crimson glow of her Fire Dragon soul power!
Liu Erlong raised a hand to tuck a stray lock of hair behind her ear.
Sweat dampened her temples, sliding down her fair neck and into the collar of the armor, leaving an alluring trail.
She slowly picked up the matching greatsword; it was heavy, but it felt comfortable in her grip!
With a casual swing!
A condensed, crimson sword aura tore through the air, instantly reducing a nearby solid wood shelf to ashes. The tables, chairs, and decorations along its path were not spared, and the wall was even melted into a scorched, concave mark.
Chu Men felt his heart twitch at the sight.
If you want to test the sword, fine, but why destroy my shelf?
Forget it, I'll just go to the academy's finance department for reimbursement tomorrow; it's not like it's the first time.
[Sister Erlong looks so badass!]
[So cool! I'm going to hype this armor to the moon! This is what the Horn of Slaughter should look like!]
[Liu Erlong: Demolishing your house is nothing? I'm going to demolish you too!]
Before Chu Men could step forward to complain, Liu Erlong's dangerous yet charming smile found him first.
Those phoenix eyes, usually filled with authority, were now shimmering with a soul-stirring light:
"It feels great, Chu Men. Come and spar with me!"
