Seeing Huo Yuhao's innocent and bewildered expression, Qian Chen asked, " Yuhao, have you seen Xiao Xiao? Hasn't she come back yet?"
Huo Yuhao answered truthfully, "Teacher, I don't know where Xiao Xiao went either."
Xiao Xiao hasn't returned yet, which is making Qian Chen quite worried. He took in Huo Yuhao for the Plane Consciousness, and Wang Dong to facilitate surveillance and control before sending her to Xuan Zi's Soul Hunting Team, but unfortunately, they've gone bankrupt. Only by taking in Xiao Xiao can he truly treat her as a disciple. Now it's the last day for students to return to the Shrek Academy, and Xiao Xiao still hasn't returned. Qian Chen is genuinely worried that something might have happened to her.
Since Xiao Xiao hadn't returned, he couldn't think about how to kill Wang Dong'er for the moment. Killing Wang Dong'er was a skill; he couldn't let her die by his own hand. It had to be an accident, and he had to take it slowly.
Finally, on the evening of the last day before school started, Xiao Xiao Xiao. She looked exhausted, sad, and wronged. Arriving at her lodgings, she saw Qian Chen waiting for her in the living room. Upon seeing Qian Chen, Xiao Xiao could no longer hold back her negative emotions. She ran straight to Qian Chen Qian Chen, hugged her waist, and burst into tears. "Teacher."
Qian Chen was completely taken aback by Xiao Xiao's sudden arrival and hurriedly asked, " Xiao Xiao, what's wrong?" He then activated his Eye of the Mind to observe.
Xiao Xiao simply said, "Teacher, it's nothing, just a little conflict with someone."
But Qian Chen saw right through her thoughts. It turned out that Qian Chen had given Xiao Xiao two million Gold Soul Coin, one million of which was used to support Xiao Xiao's family. The Xiao family wasn't large, but there were still several dozen people. Xiao Xiao's parents were distant relatives from a branch of the family.
After receiving the Gold Soul Coin Xiao Xiao sent back, Xiao Xiao's parents began to support impoverished members of the clan or promising younger generations. Later, they were targeted, and the remaining Gold Soul Coin were taken by the clan.
When Xiao Xiao returned this time, she had become accustomed to spending money lavishly in Shrek City. Soon, the family elders confirmed that Xiao Xiao still had money and asked her to hand it over to the family.
Xiao Xiao promised Qian Chen that the million yuan would be spent on herself, as cultivation requires nutrition and she needed to eat and drink well. Xiao Xiao then argued with the clan elders. Later, her parents were suppressed and ostracized by the clan, and she was very worried. She didn't return until close to the start of the school term.
Seeing what Xiao Xiao was thinking, Qian Chen rubbed Xiao Xiao head and helped her sit on the sofa in the living room, saying, " Xiao Xiao, I think you went back this time because you were upset by your family, right?"
Xiao Xiao didn't know how the teacher knew, but she nodded and said, "Yes, teacher."
" Xiao Xiao, our teacher founded a sect called Watch Valley. Currently, the sect has two Titled Douluo, three Soul Douluo, and over a thousand ordinary Soul Master."
Upon hearing Qian Chen mention the powerful sect, Xiao Xiao's mouth dropped open in shock. She hadn't expected her teacher to possess such immense power.
Qian Chen continued, " Xiao Xiao, your teacher invites you and your parents to join the sect he has established."
"Teacher, my parents aren't very talented; they're just Soul Elder Soul Grandmaster. I'm just an accident," Xiao Xiao said, feeling much better now that she had a way out.
"Hehe, it's alright. In the Douluo Continent, nobles rely on inheritance, while commoners rely on mutation! Don't worry, your sect will definitely accept you and your parents," Qian Chen said with a smile.
"Okay, teacher, I'll join your sect. As for my parents, I don't care what they think, I'll take them with me first. But it's only the beginning of the semester, and if I have to go back to pick them up and take them to your sect, it will delay my opening assessment!" Xiao Xiao said hesitantly.
"It's alright. Just tell me exactly where your home is, and then you can write a letter yourself. I'll also write a letter back to the sect so they can send someone to pick up your parents. Once they're back at the sect, they'll be properly taken care of. Xiao Xiao will be able to see your parents when she comes back with me during her vacation," Qian Chen explained.
"Okay, I trust you, teacher." Xiao Xiao immediately told them her home address and wrote a letter to her parents. Then Qian Chen also wrote a letter to Watch Valley, telling them to send someone to pick up Xiao Xiao's parents and settle them properly in Watch Valley.
After finishing everything, Qian Chen comforted her, " Xiao Xiao, don't worry. Your sect will definitely protect your parents. Just focus on cultivating and becoming stronger under my guidance."
Only after receiving Qian Chen's promise did Xiao Xiao feel at ease.
The next day was the opening ceremony for the senior students, and also the start of registration for the next batch of freshmen. Now that Zhang Lexuan possessed the Head Soul Bone of the Scarlet King and had the skills of the Three-Headed Exquisiteness, her efficiency in handling affairs was equivalent to the combined speed of three of herself. She finished her work in just over half an hour.
Zhang Lexuan said, " Qian Chen, you stay in the Martial Soul Department Dean's office today. I'm going back to use my Head Soul Bone to accelerate my cultivation. The more focused I am, the faster I become with this Soul Bone."
Qian Chen nodded and said, "Alright, Lexuan, you should go back to your cultivation to avoid being disturbed."
After Zhang Lexuan left, Qian Chen began reading, cultivating, and handling emergencies in the dean's office.
Suddenly, a teacher rushed in and glanced into the dean's office. Dean Zhang Lexuan was not there; only the renowned Dean Qian Chen was inside.
Seeing the teacher's flustered appearance, Qian Chen frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Reporting to Dean Qian Chen, just now, a new student came to the new student registration office, but this new student is a bit special," the teacher hurriedly replied.
What makes it special?
"This student's Soul Power has reached the Soul Ancestor level, and his Martial Soul is an extremely powerful Golden Dragon Martial Soul," the teacher quickly said.
"What!" Upon hearing about such a powerful Martial Soul and such a high level, Qian Chen immediately stood up. Regardless of whether this student was male or female, ugly or beautiful, such a genius was someone Qian Chen had to recruit and guide to join the Spirit Hall in the future!
"Dean, I haven't finished. This student is over the age limit, he's already twelve, and he doesn't even have a letter of recommendation from the city lord."
"Alright, you don't need to say anything more." The next moment, as if he had teleported, the teacher was carried by Qian Chen to the new student registration area.
"Where is that student?" Qian Chen asked anxiously.
The teacher, a little disoriented from being suddenly brought here by Qian Chen, looked around and pointed to a stunningly beautiful girl with golden hair and golden eyes, saying, "Dean Qian Chen, that's her."
Qian Chen looked in the direction the teacher was pointing and his eyes met those of the blonde girl. Unexpectedly, the girl smiled slightly upon seeing Qian Chen and then said, "I didn't expect that you, Qian Chen, would be the dean here!"
The blonde girl was originally carefree and somewhat willful and domineering; her previously aloof demeanor crumbled instantly.
Qian Chen looked at the blonde, golden-eyed girl and asked, "Have we met before?"
Qian Chen glanced around at the many people present; this wasn't the place to talk. He quickly said, "Never mind, come with me to my office first, and we can discuss this in detail."
Upon seeing Qian Chen, the blonde girl felt a surge of trust and security. Her tense heart completely relaxed, and she nodded, saying, "Okay, Qian Chen, I'll listen to you."
