More Classes?

Inside Moonlight Pavilion.

Tang Yuehua had just finished straightening the clothes the female hooligan beside her had rumpled when she heard Lu Mingchuan, who had witnessed everything moments ago, muttering about her.

What on earth was this guy saying that made no sense? Besides, what they'd been doing was just fooling around like sisters. It wasn't anything like what he'd said.

Everyone fell silent for a while.

A few of the women who were a little thicker-skinned said to Tang Yuehua, "Little Yuehua, we have things to do, so we'll be off."

"That's right. I need to fix my roof."

"My husband's about to give birth."

"..."

They rattled off all sorts of ridiculous excuses.

Tang Yuehua wanted to remind them that Lu Mingchuan was still at the door, but with how hurried and flustered they looked, she couldn't get a word in.

The group opened the door, saw the familiar figure standing there, and lowered their heads, scattering in every direction in a panic.

Lu Mingchuan watched them hurry off and shook his head.

It wasn't as if he'd make fun of them. Why run so fast?

Tang Yuehua waited for him inside.

Lu Mingchuan pushed the door open again. "Teacher, I'm here."

Good, he's here. Good.

Just don't let him think about what he saw earlier.

Just wait for the old lady to chant at you.

Tang Yuehua sat in her seat and elegantly raised her head, pointing at the chair before her with her slender fingers.

"Mingchuan, sit down."

He'd waited outside for a long time, so Lu Mingchuan sat down in front of Tang Yuehua without the least bit of hesitation.

"Are we doing another Soul Master baptism today?"

Lu Mingchuan asked her curiously. After all, she set the lessons here, so what they studied today was also up to her.

Tang Yuehua had just been about to tell Lu Mingchuan that she'd be chanting at him today when she heard him muttering again.

Don't do this. I don't want to listen to you chant. If you're just going to use the Yuehua Domain, do you really need to think about it for so long?

Sitting right in front of him, Tang Yuehua's face darkened. He'd practically called her an old witch to her face.

I don't want to stay here. Won't it be dark by the time she's done? She speaks so slowly, without the slightest regard for whether anyone else lives or dies.

Oh, right...

Tang Yuehua was drawn in by Lu Mingchuan's sudden change of topic and stayed quiet.

If I'm not mistaken, Yu Xiaogang's probably fine. That means his storyline isn't over at all, so today I can go see that funny scene with Yu Xiaogang.

Ha... Old lady, don't choose chanting.

Tang Yuehua's thoughts shifted. Since Lu Mingchuan said something was going to happen, she could go along with him. After all, she hadn't seen it in the morning. If she missed it again in the afternoon, that would be a real shame.

She slowly rose to her feet and walked elegantly behind Lu Mingchuan, placing both hands on his shoulders.

"Teacher knows you hate attending my lessons, Mingchuan. That really does sadden me."

Lu Mingchuan had no idea what this woman was up to, so he hurriedly replied, "How could that be? Don't I come to lessons every day, rain or shine?"

Damn it, I almost forgot. You charge me so much for every single lesson, and you still have the nerve to be sad? If I stopped coming, shouldn't you be happy instead?

He'd almost been confused by her.

Only then did Lu Mingchuan realize that he was paying for these lessons. It might not have been his own money, but it would've been enough to let him eat, drink, and enjoy himself for quite a while.

You're the one taking money to do a job. Why are you acting sad?

Tang Yuehua's expression stiffened for a moment, but Lu Mingchuan didn't notice.

She seemed to have charged him a hefty fee. And she'd probably been acting unfairly just now, too.

But for the sake of some juicy gossip, Tang Yuehua's hide thickened right up.

"It's precisely because you come here rain or shine, Mingchuan, that I feel so moved." Tang Yuehua wore a sorrowful expression.

Since you don't like my lessons either, we can just cancel them. That sounds perfectly reasonable, doesn't it?

Besides, she'd taken so much money without changing anything about this rich young master at all. She even felt guilty accepting it.

"Teacher, what do you mean?"

Lu Mingchuan was quite curious about what had moved Tang Yuehua.

Tang Yuehua said softly, "I've been teaching you for quite some time now, Mingchuan. How about I go out with you today? If you behave yourself, you won't have to come to my lessons anymore after today."

Really? Huazi...

"Mm."

Lu Mingchuan looked to the side, barely able to contain his delight.

Once he no longer had to come here, he'd be free as a bird.

Neither of them needed to prepare anything. They left Moonlight Pavilion right away.

Tang Yuehua watched Lu Mingchuan, who couldn't hide his grin, and silently swung her fists behind his back.

Damn it, was he really that happy to leave Moonlight Pavilion?

Why did seeing the brilliant smile on Lu Mingchuan's face make her feel so uncomfortable?

Lu Mingchuan didn't know Tang Yuehua very well. He only knew that she liked to wander around whenever she had nothing to do and go on huge shopping sprees.

After all, she couldn't cultivate, and shopping was the only way she had to pass the time. Unlike him, with all kinds of fun things in his Soul Tool, he never had to worry about getting bored.

So Lu Mingchuan stood by the entrance and asked Tang Yuehua,

"Teacher, where are you going to inspect?"

Where was she going to inspect? How would she know? This idiot had only thought halfway through the storyline and then stopped. How was she supposed to know where he said Yu Xiaogang was going?

Still, Tang Yuehua continued to gaze elegantly ahead, deep in thought.

From what she'd learned just now, Yu Xiaogang liked showing off his knowledge and playing teacher.

The South Market in Spirit City was full of shops selling books and related goods. Many people went there to buy the basic knowledge taught to students at junior academies.

Newly awakened Soul Masters, as well as people who didn't understand all sorts of questions, often visited the stalls selling old books to ask knowledgeable people for advice.

For Yu Xiaogang, that place was paradise.

She pondered for a moment, then pointed south. "Let's go look around the market in the south and see if there are any books that might suit us. Books can help you cultivate your mind, too."

Wait, you're going to the exact place I wanted to go. No wonder you're so sharp in every other way. It's just your morals that are crooked.

Tang Yuehua ignored his nonsense and accepted all his compliments without question.

This was why she could be his teacher. With just a few clues, she'd figured out where this brat was going next.

Tang Yuehua and Lu Mingchuan walked one after the other toward the southern part of Spirit City. Along the way, countless people looked at the elegant woman walking ahead.

The boost to her looks from the Yuehua Domain was no exaggeration.

Tang Yuehua really is prettier than Dongzi now.

Just look at her bust, look at her figure. Either one of those puts my Dongzi to shame.

It's not that my Dongzi isn't good. It's that Prime Minister Cao's will has been passed down through the ages.

And Tang Yuehua fits it perfectly.
