The Broken Curse of Singlehood and the Idea of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Right Leg Bone, Meeting Ma Xiaotao Again
Gu Fan was taken aback, then asked in confusion:
"Junior, are you still half asleep? Why are you talking nonsense? What kind of single person could I possibly be?"
Jiang Yu's smile remained unchanged; he simply pointed behind Gu Fan.
"Senior, why don't you look behind you?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Fan's heart skipped a beat.
But he still refused to believe his guess, and just laughed it off:
"Junior, stop teasing me, this isn't funny at all..."
"Gu Fan, if you're even a man, turn around right now!"
Before Gu Fan could finish speaking, Hua Yao Yao's voice, tinged with a hint of tears, suddenly rang out from behind him.
Gu Fan was suddenly stunned, his whole body frozen in place like a terracotta warrior.
Jiang Yu patted his shoulder with a smile, and then walked quickly towards the distance with Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming, who could no longer hide their maternal smiles.
After walking more than ten meters, with several booths blocking the way, Wu Ming could no longer contain her excitement and confusion and pulled Jiang Yu to ask:
"Junior, how do you know that Sister Yao and Gu Fan have long admired and liked each other?"
The three of them were having a good time shopping when Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo suddenly heard Jiang Yu's voice transmission, telling them to bring Hua Yao back first.
At first, the two didn't understand why, but who would have thought that as soon as they got closer, they heard Gu Fan belittling himself.
The two instantly understood Jiang Yu's purpose, and Hua Yao trembled violently and her eyes instantly reddened after hearing the conversation between Jiang Yu.
Although Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming were both perpetually single, they were over twenty-five years old, so they were well aware that their sister also had feelings for Gu Fan.
It turns out that these two had already taken a liking to each other, carrying all of them on their backs.
But the two of them are indeed kindred spirits, sharing the same timid nature. Both are almost thirty, yet neither of them has dared to confess their feelings first.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu smiled mysteriously and then said:
"The way they look at each other is clearly different from how they look at other people of the opposite sex. And haven't you noticed? They always seem so serious when others talk about each other, the way they look at each other... tsk tsk..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ming's eyes widened suddenly, and then she gave Jiang Yu a thumbs up.
"You know what, your fresh-faced mind is really sharp, junior. I, Sister Ruoruo, and Sister Yao have known each other for over ten years, but we really haven't noticed a single problem."
After saying this, Wu Ming suddenly realized a problem.
Since Jiang Yu was able to so easily detect the unusual relationship between Gu Fan and Hua Yao, did he also already realize the extraordinary connection he had with her...?
Following this line of thought, if he truly realized this but didn't reject it, wouldn't that mean she has a chance?
Wu Ming scratched his head, feeling an itch on his scalp.
After thinking about it all, she felt like she needed to develop her own brain.
Compared to Wu Ming, Han Ruoruo appeared much calmer.
Even so, her eyes still shone with admiration after hearing Jiang Yu's explanation.
"Anyway, someone from our batch of Shrek Seven Monsters has finally found a partner. This is great news, a really great thing. It proves one thing: what the Inner Court said about our generation of Shrek Seven Monsters being cursed to never find a partner was utter nonsense..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ming nodded repeatedly, looking even more excited than if she had finally found a partner herself.
Jiang Yu.
It's unclear when exactly, but the imbalance of power between women and men has become the norm in the Inner Court, especially at the high-level combat level, where women completely dominate men.
Under such circumstances, the vast majority of Inner Court Student not only cannot find partners within the school, but very few can even find girlfriends or boyfriends outside of school!
The grand Inner Court seemed to have truly become a Buddhist temple or a nunnery.
Any stagnant or solidified situation needs someone to fire the first shot to change it, just like the frozen land after winter, which will only come back to life after the first spring rain.
Han Ruoruo believed that with Hua Yao and Gu Fan leading the way, the atmosphere in the Inner Court would be completely changed sooner or later!
Having done a rare good deed, Jiang Yu and his companions didn't disturb Gu Fan and his partner, who had just confessed their feelings and needed to pour out their hearts to each other. Instead, the three of them strolled around the core war zone together.
Jiang Yu also noticed the main event that Gu Fan had mentioned earlier.
It was a shimmering silver left Soul Bone, which looked somewhat similar to the right leg bone of Jiang Yu's Space Spirit Right Leg Bone, whose cultivation had reached over 50,000 years. However, it was far from being as perfectly formed as the Space Spirit Right Leg Bone.
Jiang Yu wasn't particularly interested at first, since both of his existing Soul Bone came from super Soul Beast, but his expression changed slightly after glancing at the annotations beside him.
The Space-Binding Thorn Right Leg Bone, originating from a 50,000-year-old Thorn Dragon.
Upon examination, it was determined that nearly 70% of the bloodline of the Thorn Dragon that produced this Soul Bone was reverted to the Ancient Speed Dragon Bloodline, which was pure and abundant. At the same time, this Soul Bone possesses the Soul Skill"Soul Skill Space Thorn Domain".
True Dragon Bloodline? Spatial Domain-type Soul Skill?
Jiang Yu was certain that the Soul Bone was still in the Sea God Pavilion's Treasure Vault last night!
After all, no matter how powerful Shrek Academy is, it's definitely not at the level where it can offer Soul Bone with solidified domain-type Soul Skill for Inner Court disciples to buy at will.
This kind of Soul Bone will only be reserved for those who are truly loyal to us.
Of course, Jiang Yu wasn't considered one of their own, but he had made a deal with the top leader of the Shrek Academy, so the treatment he received was definitely better than that of a true ally.
While Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming were still in surprise, Jiang Yu suddenly remembered something.
The Space-Binding Thorn Right Leg Bone and the Space Source Right Leg Bone both belong to the spatial attribute. The Space Spirit is an elemental being, and its bloodline has a very high compatibility with bloodlines of the same attribute, so there is almost no rejection.
With the help of the previous Secret Art Soul Bone, these two Soul Bone can be completely combined into one. Furthermore, there is a high probability that the solidified Space Thorn Domain of the current Soul Bone will be preserved.
Having considered this, Jiang Yu made a decisive decision.
However, he wanted the Soul Bone, but he didn't want to spend the money.
That's right, Jiang Yu will use his privilege of receiving one free treasure from the Treasure Gathering Pavilion every year if he has a Red-level Rating.
Come out, my Red Card!
Just as Jiang Yu turned around to swipe his card at the counter and take his precious Soul Bone home, his gaze met a pair of cold, pale red eyes.
Jiang Yu paused in his steps.
The person in front of me was dressed in red, and although she wore a red veil, her signature fiery red hair and her figure, which was even more voluptuous than Wu Feng's, constantly foreshadowed her identity.
Ma Xiaotao, the Flame Maniac.
Beside Ma Xiaotao was a tall, blond young man.
Strangely enough, the blond youth had double pupils in his eyes, and his brows and eyes were also very cold, carrying a strong sense of oppression, somewhat similar to Scarface Dai Huabin.
His identity is now quite clear: White Tiger, Dai Yueheng.
Upon seeing the two, Jiang Yu's smile, which had been tinged with anticipation of getting a free treasure, gradually faded and turned icy.
"I must have forgotten to check the almanac before going out today, what bad luck!"
As soon as Jiang Yu finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire core area froze instantly. Two invisible but powerful auras surged out, causing the glass of the surrounding exhibition stands to creak unbearably.
