Douluo Continent: Invincible Since Being Forced into Marriage by a Goddess

Maintaining a cautious attitude, Su Bei did not want Xiao Wu to fall into danger.

Though, judging by the current situation, he himself seemed to be in great danger.

If this world had any cultivation technique that relied on a furnace cauldron, Su Bei would definitely be the first one captured.

Seeing the men, women, young, and old all staring at him with burning eyes, Liu Erlong could not help but tense up, feeling immense pressure.

She could only protect him even more carefully, staking her claim.

No wonder Gu Yuena had been so eager to marry him. She was actually afraid other Soul Beasts would take a liking to him!

Wait, hadn't Zi Ji seemed to be subtly seducing him back then?

Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue. "Okay, I'll listen to you, Brother."

Because the candied hawthorn had an effect similar to lipstick, Xiao Wu's already exquisite lips were now stained a vivid red, making people want to take a bite.

"Bei, you and Xiao Wu stay close to me. Notting Academy is west of Notting City. There's actually nothing worth seeing at a beginner Soul Master Academy like this. Once Mother takes you back to Blue Tyrant Academy, there'll be plenty of powerful Soul Masters there. It's far better than Notting Academy."

At that moment, Liu Erlong seemed to have emerged from the gloom of heartbreak and found a new goal in life. Even her complexion became more lively.

But she had no idea that she was jumping straight into a fire pit.

Because Notting Academy was precisely where that cowardly man was currently living!

A towering archway appeared in their field of vision.

It had been built from hard stone, with two pitch-black iron gates beneath it, forged from refined steel.

Four large characters were embedded in the center of the archway: Notting Academy.

Su Bei spotted it from afar and sighed inwardly. This is where the dream began.

He wondered whether that gatekeeper who had dared mock a future God King was still around.

He also wondered whether Tang San had already taken Grandmaster as his teacher.

Unexpectedly, the gatekeeper did not make things difficult for them.

Perhaps it was because they were good-looking, unlike how shabby Tang San had looked as a child.

How weak could someone with a high appearance score possibly be?

After all, beauty was justice.

Or perhaps it was because he sensed the Soul Power fluctuations all over Liu Erlong's body and did not dare act rashly.

Just after the three of them entered Notting Academy, Su Bei glanced back and saw an old man arriving with a boy whose appearance was nothing special.

Very soon, the gatekeeper put on his ugly, difficult expression and uttered those classic words mocking a God King:

"Can a golden phoenix be born from a grass nest? People from some tiny village think they deserve to possess Soul Power? You aren't fakes, are you?"

What followed was naturally a dispute, as someone dissatisfied with life looked down on the poor.

Tang San stared at the gatekeeper with his small eyes, clearly harboring murderous intent.

But Su Bei noticed the middle-aged man walking over from behind them.

He quietly tugged on Liu Erlong's sleeve, drawing her attention to that man.

Sure enough, the moment Liu Erlong saw Yu Xiaogang, a complicated emotion appeared in her eyes, soon followed by hostility.

Su Bei knew the reward had taken effect.

His inner thoughts ran wild: Fight, fight!

Why suffer for an entire lifetime? End it early and reincarnate sooner!

Incest marriage isn't allowed!

The gatekeeper, who had been looking down on others, immediately became respectful upon seeing Grandmaster, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

Grandmaster took the Spirit Hall Martial Soul certificate for Tang San from Jack's hand, a hint of interest appearing on his face.

Then Grandmaster took Tang San's hand and walked through the gates of Notting Academy, running straight into Liu Erlong, who had been waiting for them behind the greenbelt.

The atmosphere instantly grew tense.

Yu Xiaogang's entire body stiffened.

His face flushed red, and he instinctively wanted to run.

In the original story, once he ran, he avoided her for twenty years.

Although Liu Erlong had developed disgust toward Yu Xiaogang, she still held a trace of expectation. Seeing that he was still as cowardly as ever, unable to change his ways, she said coldly, "What? Are you trying to run away again?"

Only then did Yu Xiaogang force a bitter smile, his eyes reddening as he rasped, "Er... Erlong, how did you find this place?"
