Liu Erlong, Whom He Longed for Day and Night, and the Dummy Covered in Yu Xiaogang's Portrait (Please Bookmark!)
Seeing Yu Xiaogang summon Luo Sanpao, Lu Li smiled disdainfully.
"Gangzi, Gangzi, why do you enjoy asking for trouble so much?"
"Impudent! You little bastard! Today, this Grandmaster will make you taste what it feels like to have your family line cut off!"
Hearing this little bastard actually call him Gangzi, Yu Xiaogang could no longer bear it.
In his extreme anger, he did not even notice that his hand was pinched into an orchid-finger gesture.
"Sanpao, attack!"
Yu Xiaogang waved the hand pinched into an orchid-finger gesture at Lu Li.
At the sight of this, Lu Li hurriedly closed his eyes.
It was too damn eye-searing!
Seeing Yu Xiaogang with his drake-like voice and orchid-finger gesture, the surrounding Notting Academy students all unconsciously took several steps back.
Watching Luo Sanpao bare its teeth and swing its fat body as it charged at him from below, Lu Li snorted coldly. Tai'e Sword appeared in his hand the next moment.
Without using any Soul Skills, he merely gave the simplest, most unadorned swing. A streak of cyan-gold sword energy, carrying a fierce gale, slashed directly toward Luo Sanpao.
Ohhh!!!
A pained whimper came from Luo Sanpao's mouth, followed by agonized screams from its master, Yu Xiaogang.
"Teacher!"
Seeing his teacher sprawled on the ground, continuously letting out agonized screams, Tang San's eyes immediately reddened.
Teacher! This was the father whom Tang San regarded as a father for life once he had become his teacher!
Watching his own father suffer such pain, Tang San felt as though his heart was about to shatter!
"Teacher merely wanted to discuss some academic matters with you. Why did you strike so heavily!"
Tang San's eyes were bloodshot, and he panted like an ox as he glared fixedly at Lu Li with crimson eyes.
Tsk, tsk. Tang God King really was skilled at twisting right and wrong. Without skin thicker than city walls, he truly would not be able to say something like that.
Lu Li shook his head. There was no point wasting time here now. He could investigate the Scarlet-Scaled Lava Fruit after he "invited" Liu Erlong over.
His immediate priority was to return to Heaven Dou City and bring Liu Erlong over. Then he could buy some melon seeds or something, so he would have snacks to eat while watching the show later.
"Gangzi, I'm kind-hearted. Seeing that you're already so old and still a lonely old man, I'll bring you a wife in a few days!"
After saying this to Yu Xiaogang, who lay on the ground groaning in pain, Lu Li stepped onto Tai'e Sword and flew into the distance.
"Damn it! He dared to ignore me! He has chosen the Path to Die!"
Tang San watched Lu Li turn into a cyan-gold streak of light and fly away. Although he did not yet know Lu Li's name, that did not stop him from labeling Lu Li as someone who had chosen the Path to Die!
After all, Tang God King was narrow-minded enough not to tolerate even a grain of sand, let alone Lu Li, who had ignored him and beaten his beloved teacher into such a state.
Elsewhere, Lu Li flew to an empty, uninhabited area and switched to Little Yellow.
"Master, there was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast Transformation into a human at Notting Academy just now."
Dragon One's voice sounded in Lu Li's mind.
As for Xiao Wu, Lu Li planned to let her follow the original plot with Tang San.
He had no interest in rabbits. Besides, when Xiao Wu sacrificed herself for Tang San, he could add another two hundred thousand years to her original cultivation.
By then, even at the very worst, his Sixth Spirit Ring would be around two hundred and fifty thousand years old. Wasn't that far better than Xiao Wu, that rabbit?
"Xiao Wu can follow the original plot, but Ah Yin can be taken first."
Lu Li sat cross-legged atop Little Yellow's head, propping up his cheek with one hand as he watched the sky continuously recede behind them.
If Ah Yin followed the original plot and Tang San resurrected her later, Lu Li himself might end up gaining one mother—or perhaps even two.
As long as he came within a hundred meters of Tang San, this Double Replication opportunity would automatically trigger. So, if the system truly judged Ah Yin to be one of Tang San's opportunities—
Then Lu Li might really end up with a mother on Douluo Continent.
The more Lu Li thought about it, the more he could not help shuddering.
"No, no. To be safe, Ah Yin must be taken. Tang San, you'll have to suffer a little and go without experiencing motherly love."
Lu Li made up his mind. After bringing Liu Erlong to Notting City this time and watching a good show, he would head straight for Holy Soul Village and take Ah Yin away.
Lu Li did not want to suddenly gain one, or possibly even two, unfamiliar mothers on Douluo Continent.
As a two-hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast, Little Yellow was extremely fast. Before dawn, they arrived at an open area in the Outer Perimeter of Heaven Dou City.
After landing in the open area, Lu Li chose to walk toward Heaven Dou City like an ordinary person.
The instant Lu Li entered Heaven Dou City, Qian Renxue's spies stationed at the city gate reported Lu Li's return to Heaven Dou City.
At the East Palace of the imperial palace.
After Qian Renxue returned to her crown prince's residence, she dismissed the servants and resumed her true form. At the same time, Stingray and She Long had already been waiting in the room.
"Young Mistress, our people only followed him for several dozen meters as you instructed. The latest information we received is that the child has gone to Blue Tyrant Academy."
"Blue Tyrant Academy?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue took out a map from her Storage Soul Guidance Device. After looking at Blue Tyrant Academy's location, she could not make sense of it no matter how she thought about it.
"Dean Liu Erlong—isn't she Yu Luomian's illegitimate daughter? Could that child be connected to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?"
Qian Renxue frowned deeply, but she soon dismissed the thought.
She knew the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's strength very well. The entire sect had only one level-ninety-five Title Douluo. It was absolutely impossible for a level-ninety-seven Title Douluo to appear.
"Young Mistress, according to Chen Xin, the person who ambushed him and Ning Fengzhi that day had a black dragon Martial Soul. That child might really be connected to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect."
She Long said from the side.
In contrast to Qian Renxue's deep confusion, Lu Li was currently sitting comfortably on a genuine leather sofa in the Dean's Office of Blue Tyrant Academy.
"I say, Dean Liu, you don't need to look at me like that. You're making it seem as though I did something to wrong you."
"Also, the one who wronged you was Yu Xiaogang. Don't get that mixed up."
Before Lu Li, Liu Erlong stared at him with her heroic eyes, an expression like she had seen a heartless man appearing in them.
Liu Erlong was acting this way because Lu Li had just told her Yu Xiaogang's whereabouts.
Lu Li remembered it clearly. When Liu Erlong heard news of Yu Xiaogang, she had immediately dashed over to his side.
What a pitiful simp!
"How am I supposed to believe that everything you said is true?"
Liu Erlong took a deep breath.
Only after calming down did she begin to reconsider the matter.
When Liu Erlong had heard news about the Xiao Gang she had longed for day and night, she had nearly lost herself.
So she had not considered at all whether Lu Li's words were accurate.
Only after taking some time to recover did she return to normal.
There was no helping it. She had waited for her Xiao Gang for so many years, and she also had a secret nobody knew: at her residence in the Academy's back mountain, there was a dummy covered in Yu Xiaogang's portrait. Day and night, she could only fall asleep while hugging that dummy.
Lu Li smiled. Why should he explain himself? He was only responsible for speaking; whether Liu Erlong believed him or not had nothing to do with him.
"Dragon One, invite Dean Liu here for a little trip."
As Lu Li's voice fell, Liu Erlong's vision went black. The next instant, her entire body went limp like a lump of rubber clay in Dragon One's arms.
Seeing Dragon One's efficient movements, Lu Li could not help twitching his lips.
"Forget it, forget it. As long as she isn't dead."
