Two Years

Heaven knows if he went to headquarters and announced himself as the teacher of Qiangu Qingzhou, he would be hacked into mincemeat by that Tower Master.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo sighed.

This was equivalent to directly blocking his path forward.

His future strength had a bottleneck; without the resources and mentorship of the main tower, it would be a very difficult task for him to become a Titled Douluo.

However, he did not care all that much.

Already nearing forty, he had long since lost such high ambitions, and being a Tower Master here was quite good.

Especially watching his own disciple shine in the future.

As he thought this, the door was knocked, and he saw Su Xin walk back in.

Seeing the snacks Su Xin had brought back, Chen Mo froze for a moment.

"Tower Master, these are the snacks the Young Tower Master brought for you. He said they were brought from Shrek City."

Su Xin said with a smile, pushing the food box forward.

Looking at the food, Chen Mo felt somewhat helpless.

He reached out, picked up a piece of pastry, put it in his mouth, and then pushed the food box toward Su Xin.

"You have some too; there is plenty here. It seems the child brought quite a lot."

"No need, Tower Master, the Young Tower Master brought some for me as well. Tower Master, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

As Su Xin spoke, a rare, bright smile appeared on her face.

Watching his assistant in this state, Chen Mo sighed and waved his hand dismissively.

"Go on, go on."

In Chen Zhou's room, watching Na'er sitting there devouring her food, Chen Zhou looked at the box in his hand with interest.

Inside the box were four Mystic Water Pills. Mystic Water Pills had a certain effect on improving aptitude, but their most important use was to increase soul power and rapidly accelerate the speed of soul power cultivation.

However, for Chen Zhou, it would be an understatement to say they were useless; they were truly completely useless.

He currently needed to slow down his cultivation speed for fear of being captured as a test subject, let alone needing to cultivate rapidly.

Therefore, looking at these Mystic Water Pills, he pushed them toward Na'er as well.

Seeing the box pushed in front of her, Na'er was stunned for a moment, blinked her eyes, and opened the box directly.

Looking at the pills inside, she assumed they were some kind of new snack, so without hesitation, she grabbed one and stuffed it into her mouth.

This scene happened so suddenly that before Chen Zhou could explain, Na'er had already eaten it.

He wanted to stop her, but seeing the girl's cheeks flush for a moment, there was no further reaction.

He watched as the girl picked up the second pill and began to chew it as well.

Chen Zhou smiled helplessly; this was the Silver Dragon King, after all, and a complete Silver Dragon King at that.

For her, this kind of pill really only served to improve her cultivation, with almost no side effects.

Feeling Na'er's strength begin to rise and her soul power level slowly increase, Chen Zhou smiled helplessly.

However, while Chen Zhou was smiling helplessly, Na'er's brows furrowed.

"Brother, what is this thing?"

"It tastes really bad."

"Why is it so bitter? It's not sweet at all!"

As Na'er spoke, she pushed the box away with her small, chubby hand.

It was clear she was not interested in the contents of the box; after all, this stuff did not taste good at all.

Seeing the highly sought-after pills being pushed away by Na'er, Chen Zhou did not get angry.

After all, for Na'er, these things might not be all that rare.

"This is for increasing soul power; it can help your strength improve rapidly and give you greater power."

"Na'er, be a good girl, let's eat the remaining two, okay?"

Chen Zhou said, personally picking up a Mystic Water Pill and holding it to Na'er's lips.

Na'er felt a bit aggrieved, but seeing her brother's expression, she gave a soft nod and opened her mouth to eat the two pills.

Feeling the power within Na'er begin to rise, Chen Zhou's expression remained calm.

This was effectively a way to rapidly awaken Na'er's memories.

But Chen Zhou did not care that much; after all, at this stage, Na'er had no ability to protect herself.

He would rather have Gu Yue and Na'er appear later.

At least at that stage, Na'er would possess her memories and be able to protect herself.

As for trying to engage in romance right now, let's not be ridiculous.

Both of them were far too young.

At his current stage, he only held a simple, brotherly affection for Na'er.

After Na'er swept through the food she had brought like a whirlwind, Chen Zhou carried her back to her room.

He tucked her in and dimmed the lights before returning to his own room to sit cross-legged.

Having resolved the matter with the Qiangu Clan and severed ties, he still shared a bloodline connection with them, but he no longer had any relationship with that branch or anyone else.

This was a good thing for him; with that problem settled, he could cultivate here with peace of mind.

"Two years, is it?"

"It seems Leng Yaozhu plans to come to East Sea City in two years, which aligns with the timeline."

"In the original timeline, that was the stage when she came over, met Gu Yue, and took her on as a disciple."

Chen Zhou spoke to himself, then took a deep breath.

Clearly, Leng Yaozhu had already made plans to come to the East Sea City Spirit Pagoda by this time.

Chen Zhou didn't actually understand her reasons for coming, but it was a good thing for him.

Two years was enough time; it wouldn't be very difficult for him to raise his strength to the three-ring level.

As the morning sunlight spilled down, the two of them began their usual school life.

However, when Chen Zhou and the others arrived this time, they discovered that Xie Xie had actually been assigned to their class and was now their classmate.

As the days passed, life repeated itself day after day.

More than two years flickered by in the blink of an eye.

Time was a strange thing; it was neither long nor short.

In youth, one has no concept of time, and it is only when one grows old that one realizes the time once taken for granted was the most wonderful moment of life.

The morning sun spilled down as Teacher Yue stood there, watching the children return one by one to collect their graduation certificates; her eyes were uncharacteristically brimming with tears.

Having known them for three years, she felt a deep attachment to these children.

However, the children clearly didn't appreciate it; most came with their parents, offered a simple goodbye, and turned to leave.

As for this kindergarten teacher who had given them their start, most of them probably wouldn't even remember her name in a dozen years, let alone recall her.

Perhaps one day, when their own children started kindergarten, they would finally think of their own kindergarten teacher.

They would remember this teacher who was gentle yet carried a hint of strictness, and who was, all things considered, quite good.

But by the time that happened, under the pressures of career and family, most people would only be able to sigh and remark that those years were truly the most carefree of all.
