Xiao Wu sat on Luo Yihe's back, looking at the milk tea and fried chicken that had appeared before her.

She asked in confusion, "What are these? Food? How do you eat them?"

Xiao Wu picked up a box of fried chicken and a cup of milk tea, bringing her little nose close to sniff them.

"Big Sis Xiao Wu, get off me first. You must be tired from earlier. I'll handle the rest."

Xiao Wu felt there was something strange about that, but she had no proof. Besides, the food Luo Yihe had taken out smelled quite good, so she got off him.

Then she handed the fried chicken and milk tea in her hands to Luo Yihe.

"Here, hurry up and tell me how to eat them."

Luo Yihe casually brushed the dust off himself, took the milk tea and fried chicken Xiao Wu handed over, then retrieved a matching straw for the milk tea from his system space. He inserted the straw into the milk tea before opening the fried chicken box.

The rich scent of milk and the aroma of fried chicken immediately spread through the air.

٩(๑>◡<๑)۶ "It smells so good!"

Xiao Wu excitedly looked at the fried chicken and milk tea in Luo Yihe's hands, especially the milk tea.

Xiao Wu couldn't stop herself from swallowing.

"Xiao Yi, can I eat now?"

Xiao Wu stared fixedly at the plastic cup of milk tea.

"Sure, no problem. You didn't eat lunch, so just take a small sip first. These are only snacks—we still need to have lunch later!"

"Mm, Big Sis Xiao Wu understands."

Xiao Wu nodded rapidly, impatiently bringing her little mouth close. "Sluurp!"

Xiao Wu took a huge gulp, and her eyes immediately lit up.

"Xiao Yi, this is so good!"

"Good, right?"

"Mm-hm."

"See how well I treat you? I couldn't even bear to eat something this good myself—I saved it especially for you. You're the noble consort I personally chose. From now on, stay away from Tang San. Last night, I observed the heavens and knew that little blackie wasn't a good person."

"Oh, I know, I know. Everyone in the world except Xiao Yi is a bad person. You've been saying that for nearly five years. Besides, it rained last night. You went to sleep earlier than me and woke up later than me. You're just bragging again."

Xiao Wu ate as she chatted idly with Luo Yihe.

"Huh? Tang San? Where's he hiding?"

Luo Yihe looked around but found no sign of anyone. He simply stopped caring. It didn't affect him anyway, so he might as well farm some points off that little blackie.

So he continued, "Xiao Wu, that little blackie..."

{Ding, ding, ding...}

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed.

Douluo Continent, Notting City, Nuoding Academy, inside Yu Xiaogang's private dormitory...

"Xiao Chenghe, you've gone too far! Call your parent here!"

"Sigh, Little Gang..."

Bang—

"You bastard! What did you call me?"

┐(´д`)┌ "Alright, alright, Little Gang. My father repeatedly told me to follow my big brother. Wherever he goes, I go. I'm not going to that Shrek Academy of yours."

"You, you..."

Yu Xiaogang was so furious that his heart hurt. This child was the second disciple he had set his sights on. He possessed innate full soul power, and his martial soul was a bear surrounded by crackling lightning.

Moreover, every time he summoned his martial soul, dark clouds gathered and thunder roared within five meters around him.

And this brat's soul rings were all blue, something completely incomprehensible. It also completely violated the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls. Yu Xiaogang wanted to study him, but Xiao Chenghe simply ignored him.

That was what Yu Xiaogang could not accept, so he kept finding chances to make Xiao Chenghe take him as his master.

But Xiao Chenghe had an especially good relationship with that damned Luo Yihe. That beast Luo Yihe would spread rumors everywhere about him and his disciple Tang San whenever he had nothing better to do, leaving Yu Xiaogang and Tang San notorious throughout Notting City.

Yu Xiaogang calmed himself before saying, "Forget it. I can't make myself understood to you. Go call your grandfather here."

Xiao Chenghe scratched his head and looked at Yu Xiaogang. "Teacher Xiaogang, did you forget? My grandfather passed away a few months ago! Didn't you even come to my house for the funeral feast?"

"You even grabbed my dad and said the funeral was handled really well, and that when your father died, you wanted it handled like this too. My dad said that wasn't appropriate, and you..."

Luo Yihe and Xiao Wu, who had been waiting at the door, could not hold it in and burst out laughing.

{Ding, negative emotions from Yu Xiaogang +299}

"Shut up!"

Yu Xiaogang's face reddened as he roared, "Nonsense! Utter nonsense! How could I possibly say something like that?"

Before Yu Xiaogang could finish, Xiao Chenghe hurriedly said, "Teacher Little Gang, you did say it, you did. You also said you had to properly teach Little San, so that after he became successful, rich, and influential, he could hold a grand funeral when your father died."

"I didn't say that!"

Yu Xiaogang roared.

"You did!"

Xiao Chenghe stared at Yu Xiaogang with eyes full of wisdom.

"HAHAHA!"

Luo Yihe and Xiao Wu at the doorway could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.

Yu Xiaogang's face darkened. Suppressing his anger, he said, "Then call your father here."

Xiao Chenghe decisively shook his head and said firmly, "Oh, my father is away on official business. He isn't here."

Yu Xiaogang could not hold back any longer and roared, "Xiao Chenghe, isn't your father just a gatekeeper at the City Lord's Manor? What kind of official business could he possibly be on? Tell me the truth, or I'll personally go to your home."

Xiao Chenghe said with considerable reluctance, "Fine, fine, I'll tell you the truth. Some time ago, my dad went to watch an exciting show and got caught by Spirit Hall's law enforcement team. He still hasn't been released."

Yu Xiaogang was somewhat stunned. Because of Xiao Chenghe, he had also tried to get closer to Xiao Chenghe's father, hoping that Xiao Chenghe's father, like Tang San's father, had heard of his great name and would entrust his son to him, the continent's number one theory master, for guidance.

Thus, Yu Xiaogang had known Xiao Chenghe's father for quite some time.

"No wonder I haven't been able to contact him lately."

"That was close, that was close!"

"Luckily, when Xiao Dalong invited me to watch an exciting show some time ago, I didn't go. Otherwise, I probably would've been locked up too."

After calming himself, Yu Xiaogang continued, "Then who else is in your family?"

"Big Brother Luo Yihe!"

"Other than him!"

"Sister-in-law Xiao Wu!"

"She doesn't count."

"Then there's no one."

After thinking for a moment, Yu Xiaogang sighed helplessly.

"Forget it, forget it. You can go. I only hope you won't regret following Luo Yihe."

"Don't worry, Teacher Little Gang. My dad told me that this is all you'll ever amount to in your life, and that I should follow Big Brother Luo Yihe properly."

"Get out!"

Yu Xiaogang turned red with rage again, panting heavily.

"Alright!"

Xiao Chenghe did not waste any words. He pulled open the door and left.

"Brother Luo, I'm out. That Little Gang was trying to drive a wedge between us again. I say tonight, we put a sack over his head. Doesn't his martial soul fart? Let's beat him hard first and see if we can knock the shit out of him."

(¬_¬) "Eww~ Xiao Chenghe, you're so disgusting."
