Let me bear this cruel curse for this sinful world!

Over the past month, his relationship with Xiao Wu and Liu Erlong had grown even closer.

He had also gained another chance to control a puppet, along with a tenfold amplification effect.

Hearing Liu Erlong urge them on, the two hurriedly straightened their clothes. Their figures flashed past the Fairytale House window before they jumped straight down.

Liu Erlong watched them with doting yet helpless eyes. "Can't you take the stairs? You always insist on jumping down. What if you get hurt?"

Xiao Wu giggled. "We're Soul Masters now, and it's only two floors. It's not high at all. We won't get hurt."

Su Bei nodded. "Besides, Godmother, your cooking is so good that I couldn't wait the moment I caught a whiff of it. Why would I be willing to take the stairs? I wish I could have teleported straight here!"

Liu Erlong smiled contentedly. Wasn't this exactly the life she wanted?

Simple and happy.

Liu Erlong lightly scraped Su Bei's high nose bridge with her finger and said softly, "You really know how to talk. If you wanted to eat that badly, why did you dawdle for so long before coming down?"

Su Bei chuckled. "We had to take a breather, didn't we? Otherwise, our moods wouldn't have recovered properly."

But honestly, Liu Erlong's cooking was truly excellent. The Mandala Snake had been cooked until it was incomparably tender and smooth, with golden sauce flowing over it. Paired with a few red and yellow peppers and green vegetables, it had color, aroma, and flavor in abundance.

He picked up a slice of snake meat and tossed it into his mouth. It was soft and melted as soon as it touched his tongue, with the texture of chocolate and the flavor of Sichuan cuisine.

How ungrateful did someone have to be to face such a lovely wife and choose to flee from the marriage?

"Delicious!"

Su Bei narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

Xiao Wu muttered, "I really don't know what's so good about meat. Radishes are obviously the real delicacy."

Her slender fingers picked up a peach-sized, cherry-shaped, rosy-red radish and took a bite. It was crisp and sweet.

This was a rare variety of radish—the Cherry Radish. It was extremely difficult to find. Each one possessed several decades of cultivation, and it was beneficial to the growth of Xiao Wu's Soul Power.

Liu Erlong patted Xiao Wu's head and scolded her, "Xiao Wu, you need to learn to eat meat too. Don't eat only vegetables and fruit; it's bad for your body. You're still young, and this is when you're growing. If you join Soul Master competitions in the future, the consequence of not eating meat will be unhealthy development and weak limbs. Then you won't be able to beat anyone."

"Don't worry, Godmother. I know Xiao Wu best. She can beat other boys just by eating vegetables."

Su Bei came to Xiao Wu's rescue. She was the kind of adorable girl with monstrous strength.

He picked up several more pieces of snake meat. Su Bei seemed to have developed a craving for Mandala Snake meat. Tang San had been such a fool. The Mandala Snake's meat was so fresh and delicious, yet when he hunted his first Soul Ring, he hadn't known to enjoy it.

The fragrance drifted through the forest on the breeze and reached an ancestral hall.

Inside the ancestral hall stood two middle-aged and elderly men.

One was Yu Yuanzhen, a level ninety-five assault-type Titled Douluo. His title was Thunder, and he ranked as the second strongest holder of the Pope's Decree and second among the Titled Douluo of the Upper Three Sects. He was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's patriarch and Yu Xiaogang's biological father.

The other was Liu Erlong's father, Yu Luomian. He was a level eighty-two Soul Douluo and one of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's elder figures.

They caught the fragrance drifting from the forest with their sharp senses and immediately swallowed their saliva.

Yu Yuanzhen glanced at Yu Luomian. "I heard Erlong has returned and successfully advanced to a level seventy-one Soul Sage?"

Yu Luomian nodded. "That's right. She returned a month ago with two children. They've been staying on Lakeheart Island all this time, and she hasn't brought them out for a walk."

"Erlong is only around thirty, yet she has already become a Soul Sage. She may even have a chance of earning a title in the future. At least this generation has someone to hold things up, so our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan won't decline."

"But the children..."

Yu Yuanzhen frowned deeply. "Where did Erlong get children?"

Yu Luomian shook his head. "I don't know. I heard someone wandering through the forest saw them from afar outside Lakeheart Island. The rumors say they're exceptionally beautiful, like celestial fairies."

Yu Yuanzhen let out a breath of relief. "That's good, then. I was worried Erlong still had lingering feelings for that wretched son of mine and had gone looking for him again while hunting her seventh Soul Ring."

"Since they're so beautiful, they definitely can't be that wretched son's children."

Yu Luomian's mouth twitched. Xiao Gang may indeed be useless, but Brother, is it really alright for you to insult your own son like that?

You're implying he isn't good-looking. Aren't you insulting yourself too? He's your biological son, Brother!

"Could it be that Erlong couldn't have the love she wanted, her maternal instincts overflowed, and she snatched some young master and young lady from another clan?"

Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian looked at each other, feeling that the possibility was not small.

With Erlong's temperament, her gentleness could be deadly, and her fiery temper could be deadly too!

"Probably not... I heard they get along happily. If those two children had been abducted, they should be crying and making a fuss, anxious to return to their parents, rather than..."

Before Yu Luomian could finish, Yu Yuanzhen said, "Rumors are the least trustworthy. We'd better go see for ourselves."

"Besides, ever since Xiao Gang left, I haven't tasted Erlong's cooking in a long time. I miss it dearly."

"Then what are we waiting for?"
