Xue Beng and Jin Lian

She mainly wanted to understand Zhu Zhuqing, not ask about Wang Feng. Yes, that's what she thought in her heart.

After packing her things, Ning Rongrong went to the desk to write a letter to Zhu Zhuqing the next day.

"Hmm, what should I write to Zhuqing?"

"Why don't we ask about Wang Feng?"

Then, Ning Rongrong wrote down a lot of questions for Wang Feng, as well as many questions for her good friend Zhuqing.

Ning Rongrong was satisfied with writing several pages before she put it away and went to prepare some things.

Nighttime, Heaven Dou City, Liu Erlong's residence.

After talking with Liu Erlong about many things, Xiao Wu 'Soul Power was greatly depleted, and she had to fall into a deep sleep again to recover her Soul Power.

In order to become stronger and regain his strength as soon as possible, Ah Yin also entered the Green Source Space to cultivate.

Inside the room, only Wang Feng, Liu Erlong, and their daughter Xiao Qing'er were present.

Wang Feng was happily playing with his daughter, riding a rocking horse, tossing her high in the air, and so on. Liu Erlong watched the father and daughter having so much fun, and her heart was filled with happiness.

Isn't this simple life of three exactly what she wanted?

"Daddy... I want Mommy... to come with me." At this moment, Xiao Qing'er stopped, wanting Liu Erlong to join in the game.

"Erlong, our daughter is calling you."

"Alright, here you are." Liu Erlong glared at Wang Feng with annoyance, then picked up Xiao Qing and the three of them started playing house together.

Although it was a very simple and childish game, Wang Feng and Liu Erlong both had a great time playing it.

After Xiao Qing'er got tired of playing and they coaxed her to sleep, Wang Feng and Liu Erlong finally stopped.

"Erlong, your Soul Power has already reached level 85. With your current aptitude, if you work hard to cultivate, breaking through to the Titled Douluo won't be far off."

Not long after returning from Sunset Forest, Liu Erlong broke through to the Soul Douluo level, acquiring Spirit Ring and obtaining a powerful Torso Bone. After refining her Soul Power, she reached level 84. In the nearly two years since, her Soul Power has broken through one level, reaching level 85.

If she were to cultivate diligently, with her current aptitude, she might be able to advance even further.

"Do you think I don't want to break through to the Titled Douluo? Do you think I don't want to cultivate diligently? But I have to take care of Xiao Qing'er. I only have time to cultivate when Xiao Qing'er is sleeping. Reaching level 85 is already quite fast. If you stayed with me to take care of Xiao Qing'er, I might have advanced even faster, but would you stay with me?" Liu Erlong said irritably after hearing Wang Feng's words.

"Well!"

Wang Feng felt a little embarrassed after Liu Erlong said that.

Indeed, if he had stayed by Liu Erlong's side and helped her raise the child, her strength would have improved much faster.

But he couldn't! He had so many things to do.

"Erlong, I neglected you." Wang Feng hugged Liu Erlong affectionately and apologized.

"Hmph, you know that much." Liu Erlong snorted arrogantly, then asked, "But Wang Feng, you've already reached level sixty-four. Your rate of improvement is truly the fastest I've ever seen in my life."

Liu Erlong was genuinely impressed by the speed at which Wang Feng's Soul Power increased.

At the age of fifteen, Wang Feng had already reached the level of Soul Emperor at the level of sixty-four, a level of strength that could be described as unparalleled.

"Of course, if I don't become stronger quickly, how can I surpass you, and how can I be your man for life?" Wang Feng said affectionately in Liu Erlong's ear as he hugged her.

You're just teasing me.

Liu Erlong gave a haughty snort, but leaned against Wang Feng's chest and seemed to feel a sense of security.

She felt at peace, nestled in her husband's arms watching her daughter sleep beside her.

In fact, Wang Feng also had a Soul Bone in his storage ring, the 60,000-year-old leg bone of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. If he refined it, his level 64 Soul Power would increase by at least a few more levels. However, he had not yet decided whether to refine it or not.

Now, holding Liu Erlong in his arms, looking at his sleeping daughter beside him who resembled Liu Erlong, he felt a sense of peace and no longer thought about refining the Soul Bone.

He planned to spend two days with Liu Erlong, and then go find Qian Renxue. Since both places were in Heaven Dou City, it wouldn't take long to go back and forth.

However, he couldn't let Qian Renxue know about Liu Erlong, otherwise, given Qian Renxue's temper, she would probably immediately give him a sword Angel's Blade.

Now is not the time for him to be honest with Qian Renxue; he can only keep it from her for the time being.

The night passed quickly, and the next day, Wang Feng and Liu Erlong continued their peaceful and warm life together.

Meanwhile, Xue Beng, who had gotten up early to prepare, planned to go to the West City to find Jin Lian.

He already knew that the current Imperial Advisor Yu Xiaogang, had returned to the State Preceptor's Residence, and that he still had many things to attend to.

It was knowing all this that made him get up so early to go find Jin Lian.

As a spoiled prince, he had his own methods for dealing with women.

Once the women around Yu Xiaogang are bribed, it will be easy to secretly establish a relationship with the national advisor, Yu Xiaogang.

The Heaven Dou Imperial City is very large, roughly divided into inner and outer cities.

The inner city was mostly inhabited by nobles, while the outer city was mostly inhabited by commoners.

The inner city is further divided into four sections: east, west, south, and north.

The eastern part of the city is where the imperial palace is located.

The West City was the most luxurious entertainment venue, and a place where some high-ranking officials and nobles kept their mistresses.

A spoiled prince like Xue Beng was naturally very familiar with West City, and he easily arrived at his destination for the day: the residence of Jin Lian, the woman Yu Xiaogang kept.

Thump!!

Then, after getting off the carriage, Xue Beng came and knocked on the door.

Meanwhile, Jin Lian, who was inside the residence, was overjoyed when she heard the knocking.

Thinking it was Flender coming to find her again, she happily ran out and opened the door.

To her surprise, Jin Lian was stunned when she opened the door and saw the Xue Beng.

When Xue Beng outside the door saw Jin Lian, he was also stunned for a moment.

How could it be him? Prince Xue Beng, how could he have found his way here? Could he be looking for me?

No, now that I have Flender and Yu Xiaogang, the national advisor, I absolutely cannot let him ruin my life.

How could it be her...? Jin Lian is actually a woman I slept with! She's being kept by the Imperial Advisor Yu Xiaogang! A woman I've been with is being kept by the Imperial Advisor? What kind of nonsense is this?!

No, Jin Lian is Jin Lian. Wouldn't this give me leverage over her, allowing me to get her to secretly contact the Imperial Advisor Yu Xiaogang?

Upon seeing each other, the two appeared calm on the surface, but their inner thoughts were quite complex.

"Jin Lian."

"Prince Xue Beng."

The two spoke at the same time, which caused them to fall silent again.

In the end, it was the Xue Beng that came to its senses first.

"Jin Lian, won't you invite me in for a seat?"

"Prince Xue Beng, I am no longer the kind of person you think I am. I will not do it with you again." Jin Lian shook her head and refused.

"I mean, sit down for a bit. Jin Lian, do you still want to do it with me again?"

Xue Beng wickedly, but entered the room without waiting for Jin Lian's consent.

He knew Jin Lian very well, after all, he had had quite a bit of contact with her in Qushangle and was very familiar with her.

When Jin Lian saw Xue Beng enter, she had no choice but to close the door and lock it tightly so as not to be discovered by others.

"Prince Xue Beng, how did you know I was here? And what brings you here?"

As soon as she entered, Jin Lian couldn't help but ask about the Xue Beng.

"Hehe, of course I need to talk to you, Jin Lian."

After glancing around the room a few times, Xue Beng said, "This place is so magnificent, it's so much better than Qushangle. Jin Lian, you must like it very much."

"What do you mean?"

"What do you think I mean?" Xue Beng said, stepping in front of Jin Lian and taking her hand.

Jin Lian wanted to dodge, but after thinking about it, she decided not to.

"I've heard that your relationship with the Imperial Advisor Yu Xiaogang is quite close."

"What do you want, Prince Xue Beng?"

"I don't want anything, I just want..." Then Xue Beng leaned close to Jin Lian's ear and whispered something.

Upon hearing this, Jin Lian blushed repeatedly. In the end, she neither refused nor agreed.

"Lai Jin Lian, it seems like it's been a long time since we've gotten to know each other properly. Let me take a good look at you."

Xue Beng grinned wickedly and pulled Jin Lian into the room.

A moment later, Xue Beng gently flicked Jin Lian's nose and said, "Jin Lian, remember what you promised me, and what you said about being very beautiful."

After saying that, Xue Beng left Jin Lian's residence with a wicked grin.

"Hmph, what a scoundrel, he doesn't even offer a little comfort."

Jin Lian watched the Xue Beng leave with a hint of annoyance, then tidied herself up and happily went back to her room to rest.

After leaving, Xue Beng returned to his residence and found his uncle Xue Xing to tell him that things were settled with Yu Xiaogang.

Xue Xing was also very excited upon hearing this. With Yu Xiaogang's support, his chances of plotting with Xue Beng would be even greater.

"Very good, Xue Beng, you can have a good fight with that Jin Lian. Don't let this opportunity slip by."

"Yes, I understand, Uncle. I will definitely catch Jin Lian and make her do things for me."

On the other side, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, Ning Rongrong and their group also arrived at the Heaven Dou Palace.

Ning Rongrong knew that her father was going to find the Crown Prince and the Emperor, but she wasn't interested. After saying goodbye to Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo, she headed towards the Shrek Academy.

As for Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo had nothing to worry about.

"What? Teacher Erlong isn't at the Shrek Academy?"

"Dean Flender isn't here either."

"After becoming the Imperial Preceptor, the Grandmaster rarely returned to the Shrek Academy in the past six months."

Upon arriving at the Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong learned some things that greatly surprised her.

Now, Qin Ming has been promoted to vice dean at the Shrek Academy. With Flender absent, he is basically in charge of the entire academy.

Qin Ming was helpless when he saw Ning Rongrong's surprised expression.

Yu Xiaogang was somewhat dissatisfied with Flender's hands-off approach to managing Shrek Academy after becoming the national teacher, but he didn't say anything.

"Junior Rongrong, is there something important you need to discuss with Teacher Erlong? If so, I can pass on the message, but I don't know when they'll be back."

"Never mind, since Teacher Erlong aren't here, I'll come another time."

After exchanging a few words with Qin Ming and learning that Liu Erlong was not there, Ning Rongrong quickly left Shrek Academy and began to wander around Heaven Dou City.
