Liu Erlong's overly familiar manner surprised Jiang Nannan.

Of course, Liu Erlong's appearance here was already unexpected for Jiang Nannan, so it was no surprise that it was unexpected again.

Practice makes perfect.

Human adaptability is the most formidable thing.

Just like when you've eaten too much bamboo shoot stir-fried with pork, and then see your parents coming over with a feather duster, you instinctively adopt a relatively comfortable posture, knowing you can't run away. Although this analogy is a bit strange, immunity does indeed follow this principle and gradually improves, whether physically or mentally.

However, Liu Erlong wasn't entirely oblivious to the situation. While extending goodwill to Jiang Nannan, she didn't neglect Ma Xiaotao and the others. Seeing that Jiang Nannan was somewhat shy, she didn't press the issue but instead turned the conversation to Ye Qingcang: "Speaking of which, A Ying, these people... are they perhaps your friends as well?"

Liu Erlong's wording was very precise.

Because she knew Ye Qingcang's sexual orientation.

Let's not talk about Ma Xiaotao, nor about Ling Luochen.

I won't even mention Hu Liena and Xi Xi, among others.

People like Dai Yueheng, Gongyang Mo, Xie Yue, Chen Zifeng, and Yao Haoxuan could not possibly have any relationship beyond friendship with Ye Qingcang.

Therefore, when questioning Ye Qingcang.

Liu Erlong used the word "friend" instead of "girlfriend".

In addition, Liu Erlong also had doubts.

Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, Xi Xi, Hu Liena, and the others are all beautiful in their own way. If a normal man were here, he would definitely be unable to resist the charm of these girls, unless these girls have boyfriends. But judging from their behavior after entering the room, they don't seem to have boyfriends. Therefore, facing this brat who has multiple girlfriends, she can't guarantee that there aren't any of Ye Qingcang's confidantes among them, that is, friends who are more than friends but not quite lovers.

It's just a question; it won't hurt you.

It's better than being kept in the dark.

In addition, I also asked Ye Qingcang to help introduce them.

However, the implication was quite clear; anyone with a modicum of emotional intelligence would understand. That's why Ma Xiaotao stepped forward and introduced herself to Liu Erlong confidently, "Hello, Dean Auntie, I'm Ma Xiaotao, Inner Court student at the Shrek Academy. I'd say I'm a friend of Ye Qingcang ... Actually, I should say I'm a lucky one who received guidance from Ye Qingcang. To be honest, before meeting Ye Qingcang, my Martial Soul was just the Evil Fire Phoenix. It was Ye Qingcang who awakened me, allowing me to undergo a rebirth, and my Martial Soul evolved into the Fire Phoenix ... In short, Ye Qingcang is a friend to me!"

"Auntie Dean..."

Liu Erlong's expression was somewhat strange.

Although after the Two Realms Convergence, that is, after the function of traveling between the two worlds was opened, she gradually learned what choices she had made and what results she had achieved on the Douluo Continent under another star system.

But she didn't agree with those.

Because she is herself.

If her Destiny and history in the Dou Two Star System are destined to remain unchanged, then the person who truly changed her Destiny might not be Ye Qingcang, but herself. If she hadn't seen Ye Qingcang back then, or if she had seen Ye Qingcang but didn't choose to save and raise Ye Qingcang, Ye Qingcang might have truly been doomed.

Ye Qingcang had joked many times that he should thank all the Soul Beast in that Thousand-Year Soul Beast Zone, because it was those Soul Beast that didn't eat him, so he was able to be saved and subsequently raised.

So, whatever the other woman did...

She herself wouldn't admit it.

It's like saying that if another Ye Qingcang came one day, she wouldn't treat that Ye Qingcang as her own son, even if they were exactly the same. But the real one is the real one. Although this standard of judgment is not fair to the fake Ye Qingcang, the real and the fake are relative. Perhaps in the other person's eyes, her son Ye Qingcang is the fake one. But whether it is real or fake, the Ye Qingcang she recognizes is only this one.

Therefore, she deserves to be called "Auntie".

But she couldn't accept being called "Dean".

She waved her hand and gently corrected him, "History is history after all. Two leaves that look exactly the same are not exactly the same in essence. No matter what titles you have in your history, at least for me, I am currently just the dean of the Blue Tyrant Academy. You are not students of my Blue Tyrant Academy, so I am not worthy of the title of dean... As for your Martial Soul, the fact that it can evolve is your ability. A genius who can learn by analogy only needs to learn one thing. A Ying is just an opportunity... However, I am really happy that you can treat A Ying as a friend. A Ying has had few friends since he was a child, and new friends are quite rare."

The reason I have few friends is that I'm too mature.

This has nothing to do with whether Ye Qingcang is arrogant or not.

He couldn't possibly be playing in the mud with other three-year-olds when he was three years old.

Therefore, Liu Erlong's statement is rather one-sided.

However, Ma Xiaotao and the others have sufficient emotional intelligence.

What is true?

What words are false?

How to distinguish between an excuse and a pretext.

They still know these things.

So, Ma Xiaotao smiled and didn't refute, but she didn't take Liu Erlong's modesty seriously. She shook hands with Liu Erlong and then gave up her seat to give Dai Yueheng the opportunity to introduce himself.

Dai Yueheng also has high emotional intelligence.

He readily took over the conversation.

Instead of extending his hand, he bowed and said, "I am also an Inner Court student of the Shrek Academy, and the eldest son of White Tiger Duke, named Dai Yueheng... In any case, to be able to see a legendary figure like you again is an incredible and remarkable event. I think even my father would be amazed if he knew about this... Perhaps history is history, and perhaps there are no two leaves that are exactly the same, but I believe that there are always two seemingly identical leaves that come from the same towering tree, and there will be points of intersection between time."

What should a fully qualified heir to the Duke's Mansion look like?

Dai Yueheng answered the question with his actions.

Even though he was the God Trial Taker of the God of War God.

Logically speaking, he and Ye Qingcang were not partners on the same side.

They might even be the enemy.

It's no secret that the God of War Dai Mubai and the God of the Sea Tang San have a very good relationship. Ye Qingcang's most famous achievement is the destruction of Seagod Island and the killing of many powerful figures, including the High Priest of the Sea God, Poseidon, as well as Haotian Douluo Tang Hao and the young Tang San who had not yet grown up. It would be strange if the God of the Sea Tang San could swallow this insult. However, due to the rules between the human and divine realms, he may not be able to retaliate against Ye Qingcang now.

Because he was the God Trial Taker of War God.

That's why I know these things, and that's why I can think of these things.

As for whether it's right or wrong, that's hard to say.

Anyway, this is the only step he can see.

In other words, even if everything goes in the best possible direction, as long as Ye Qingcang doesn't back down, he and Ye Qingcang can only be enemies. Even without the messy affairs between the Deity, Huo Yuhao's threat is still like a steel knife, firmly held to his neck, making it extremely difficult for him to even breathe.

He wasn't targeting Huo Yuhao, he just couldn't.

It's not that I don't want to.

At this critical juncture.

The White Tiger Duke's Mansion cannot afford to clash with the Xu Family, the Star Luo Imperial Family.

Therefore, things like Xu Jiujiu trying to win over Huo Yuhao are common occurrences.

He could only watch, but couldn't stop it.

Ye Qingcang and Huo Yuhao have a good relationship, and Xu Jiujiu treats Huo Yuhao like an older brother. Huo Yuhao's contact with Xu Jiujiu was something that even Huo Yuhao couldn't hide from him, let alone Ye Qingcang. But Ye Qingcang didn't stop him. Does that mean anything?

But even so, what does it matter?

People who wear their emotions on their sleeves are destined to achieve little!

Besides, after the Zhu Lu incident, he dared not gamble on whether he was the true heir or a substitute. Dai Mubai was not his direct ancestor; his direct ancestor was Dai Weisi. Putting himself in Dai Mubai's shoes, he would definitely betray him without hesitation. However, he did not want to be betrayed by this non-direct ancestor, so making two preparations became inevitable.

Ultimately, it comes down to this: Deity understand power, but they don't understand human nature!

Liu Erlong has a straightforward personality.

It's hard to guess what Dai Yueheng is thinking.

Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena snorted indifferently from the side, looked at Ye Qingcang also knew everything but remained unmoved, snorted again for no apparent reason, and continued to fiddle with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

"Ling Luochen greets Senior."

Compared to Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng, Ling Luochen spoke much less. However, even on ordinary days, she was usually taciturn. Her concise introduction, emphasizing the title of "senior," was also a way of hinting at her identity and position to Liu Erlong.

Liu Erlong nodded in agreement.

Since she's not their own daughter-in-law.

Then there's no need to pay too much attention to it.

Normal contact is fine.

Ye Qingcang had explained to her the system of the Divine Realm. In other words, even if she couldn't become Deity in the future, Ye Qingcang had a way to give her a position as a God Official, which would be Deity within the standard of level 100 to 109. She wouldn't have the right to choose a successor, but she would be able to receive the blessing of Goddess of Life. All of this was within the rules. If it was outside the rules, Ye Qingcang said there was still room for maneuver, but he hadn't explained this space in detail when he explained it to her.

So, let's think about it from the other side.

Even if you are the God Trial Taker of the Ice God, even if you become the Ice God, at most you will be immortal and a little stronger.

I can also achieve immortality through my son. Although my strength may not be as great as yours, my son is destined to become God King. I am not afraid of you using your strength to suppress me, even if we are of different generations.

You can't do it now.

You'll be even less able to do it in the future.

Therefore, Liu Erlong was not ashamed.

The previous praise of Yu Tianheng was just empty flattery.

Surely no one actually takes this seriously?

In this day and age, what parent would belittle their child in front of relatives and friends, making their child lose face?

No way, really?

However, Ling Luochen didn't notice any change in Liu Erlong's attitude, because Liu Erlong had the same attitude when facing Dai Yueheng. There were many people who came to join in the fun, and it would be too much trouble to introduce each one in detail. It would be better to omit a little and it would only take a few minutes.

And that is indeed the case.

Because Hu Liena knew Liu Erlong through Xie Yue.

Liu Erlong also knows Hu Liena and Xie Yue.

We had met before, during the Soul Hunting Operation and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well incident.

Self-introductions were simply omitted.

Chen Zifeng is ruthless and doesn't talk much.

The same is true for Xi Xi.

It sounds strange to say that Ling Luochen doesn't want to talk nonsense because he's arrogant, Xi Xi doesn't want to talk nonsense because she's lazy, but that's the truth.

Yao Haoxuan is a rare normal person.

But seeing that Ling Luochen and the others didn't waste any words.

He just went with the flow.

I gave a brief self-introduction.

Gongyang Mo had a lot to say, but Ye Qingcang was the elder, and Ye Liu Erlong had forcibly elevated him, making him afraid to say anything. Otherwise, he would embarrass Ye Qingcang. He still had that much self-awareness on Ye Qingcang's turf.

In addition, Ning Tian and Wu Feng were also with the team.

And Cao Jinxuan, a second-year student.

As a reinforcement in terms of control.

This can be described as an enhanced version of the original Shrek Battle Team. Judging from the lineup, Zhu Lu might also be among the reserve members, to ensure that Dai Yueheng can activate the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Hell White Tiger in battle. However, Zhu Lu might refuse to visit Ye Qingcang and the others. The defeat in the afternoon still has too much of an impact on her. Adjusting her mindset is more important than just visiting. The Spirit Hall side is much simpler, with Hu Liena and Xie Yue. There's nothing fancy about it. Given the relationship between the Spirit Hall and Blue Tyrant Academy, there's no need for anything fancy. Compared to the Shrek Academy members, they seem more like they're genuinely visiting rather than coming with any ulterior motive.

"By the way, where's Le Xuan?" Ye Qingcang had wanted to ask earlier, but Ma Xiaotao and the others were introducing themselves, and he wasn't a rude person, so he waited a while before asking, "I remember she went to your side..."

Liu Erlong quietly pricked up his ears.

The girl that this brat brought up must be someone special.

Don't ask her how she knew the other person was a girl.

How many boys are named Le Xuan?

"Sister Lexuan... she's over there devising tactics against you!" Jiang Nannan covered her mouth and chuckled, then quickly explained to Ye Qingcang, who looked slightly surprised, "I was in such a rush to come back that I forgot to tell you... Sister Xiaotao and the others have reached an agreement with many of the Heaven's Chosen from the Spirit Hall to regroup. Sister Lexuan Sister Lexuan found out about this after she got there, so she became quite interested and stayed there to help devise tactics... As you know, Sister Lexuan's age exceeds the rules for the Second Division, so this kind of off-field technical assistance is theoretically compliant."

"Wow, wow, wow!"

"I don't think I'm some kind of big boss, do I?"

"Why are you all teaming up to analyze my strategy guide?"

"Are you really here for the championship?"

"Stop messing around, you guys!"

Ye Qingcang looked at Ma Xiaotao and the others with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

He's definitely going to win the Individual Competition.

Because in a one-on-one competition format.

No one can beat him yet.

However, that doesn't mean you guys can beat me in a team competition.

If quality is lacking, can quantity be relied upon instead?

They're even joining forces against me?

Even studying me?

Seriously?
