Gu Rong interjected, "Rongrong, what level are you at now? Can you tell me?"
"Grandpa Bone, you're the best! I'm level 29 now."
Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi both looked incredulous upon hearing this. How could someone have leveled up three times in such a short time?
I've never seen my daughter practice diligently before!
Could it be that she really didn't encounter a blond-haired guy, but instead met a good teacher?
Thinking about the message they received, their facial expressions became quite varied.
They absolutely must see this person.
Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi exchanged a smile and nodded to each other.
"When the wind blows, we'll wait here for her teacher to return."
Ning Rongrong panicked upon hearing this and quickly tried to stop her:
"Huh? No, I don't agree."
Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong have already reached a consensus. Does it matter whether Ning Rongrong agrees or not?
"Rongrong, go and cultivate by yourself, don't worry about us."
"You're being unreasonable, aren't you? How could you do this..." Ning Rongrong looked aggrieved.
She had no idea what Jiang Yunzhou would think when he returned and saw this.
What if I get angry and hate myself?
But she couldn't do anything about her own father; they refused to leave, and she had no choice.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Just as Ning Rongrong was at her wit's end, the courtyard gate was pushed open again, and Xiao Wu hopped in: "Rongrong, Zhuqing, I'm here to mooch a meal again... Eh?"
Before she could finish speaking, she saw Ning Fengzhi and Gu Douluo in the courtyard.
Especially Bone Fighter, whose imposing aura and sharp gaze made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave, her heart pounding wildly!
Her face turned deathly pale instantly, devoid of any color.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong noticed that her expression was off and quickly went up to ask her what was wrong.
Gu Rong's expression hardened, and she whispered to Ning Fengzhi, "Fengzhi, there's something wrong with this girl."
Xiao Wuqiang laughed and asked, "Rongrong, them?"
"Oh, they are my dad and Grandpa Gu, they are not bad people. Xiao Wu, what's wrong?" Ning Rongrong quickly introduced.
Xiao Wu was both amused and exasperated, but he was certainly not a bad person to Ning Rongrong.
A wave of desolation washed over her as she thought to herself: I'm doomed, my identity has been exposed again!
What's wrong with this wretched village? Why are they sending out titled Douluo every other day? What's going on?
The moment she locked eyes with Gu Rong, she knew that the other man had seen right through her.
"Rongrong, I'm fine."
"Hello, everyone. I... I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I'll be going now!" Xiao Wu turned around and left without looking back.
"Hey? Xiao Wu, didn't you come here for dinner?"
"I'm so sorry, Rongrong! My stomach suddenly hurts, I have to go home now!"
Xiao Wu fled in panic, tears welling up in his eyes.
She ran all the way back to her dormitory at Shrek Academy, slammed the door shut, and wrapped herself tightly in the blankets, as if only in this way could she shut out the terrifying prying eyes from the outside world.
She screamed in her heart: Brother Yunzhou, you said you would protect me! I promised to be your disciple, please, please come and save this bunny!
She didn't know when, but Jiang Yunzhou had become her lifeline at this moment, and he was all she could think about.
At this time, Jiang Yunzhou, far away in Shenghun Village, was completely unaware of what was happening at the Supreme Academy.
He felt that the operation had gone too smoothly.
I originally estimated that it would take at least three or four days to get anything, but I didn't expect to succeed in just one day.
So he simply moved into the blacksmith's shop without any hesitation.
He wanted to wait and see if Tang Hao would come back.
Because he didn't know if Tang Hao had left any backup plan on Ah Yin.
If I take Ah Yin away, will it trigger some kind of backup plan, and will he find out that my house has been robbed?
After waiting all day, we didn't even see a ghost.
Jiang Yunzhou was somewhat disappointed: "Could it be that I beat him up too badly last time, and he's hiding in some corner to heal his wounds?"
"Sigh, I don't know if those two little girls at home can take care of themselves, or if they'll go hungry... Never mind, I won't wait any longer."
Chapter 47 You might as well just give me the cash.
Once Jiang Yunzhou made his decision, he no longer hesitated.
When Ah Yin picked up the flowerpot beside her, it immediately began to shake violently, its leaves rustling.
He didn't understand what she was trying to say at all, so he chose to be selectively blind.
He sped off again, the whistling wind pulling Ah Yin's branches backward into a straight 'tail'.
When he was bored, he would mutter to himself while looking at the flowerpot:
"Don't worry, I'm not a good person."
"However, the place I'm going to happens to be where your son is also."
"By the way, just a heads-up, your ex-husband is no good. I didn't do anything to him, but he still came looking for trouble."
"So if you want to blame someone, blame him. I was acting in self-defense."
"And let me tell you a secret, actually... your son isn't really your 'son'."
"Have you noticed? Hasn't he been unusually mature since he was little? He can even come up with some strange and wonderful things without any formal instruction?"
"Didn't you ever have any doubts?"
Jiang Yunzhou seemed to be talking to himself, but in reality, he was keeping an eye on the flowerpot out of the corner of his eye.
Perhaps Ah Yin is not yet capable of forming a soul body, otherwise she would have already jumped out to ask for clarification.
At this moment, Ah Yin had already wrapped the vines tightly around his arm on his own.
He could feel that she was using more force this time, and she was wrapping herself around him very tightly.
"Why? You don't believe it?"
"With that little strength, you'd be better off just tickling me."
"To tell you the truth, your son is long gone. The one occupying that body now is just a cunning old fox who has been reincarnated."
"Hey, why are you looking so down?"
"Are you dehydrated? Perfect timing, I need to pee, let me give you some fertilizer..."
He made a move to stop, and Ah Yin, who had been listless just moments before, instantly became vibrant and full of energy again.
Jiang Yunzhou sneered inwardly: You little brat, you think I can't handle you?
He would sometimes reflect on whether it was a bit too much to bully a blade of grass like this.
But the thought that a mature soul was inside immediately dispelled that insignificant sense of guilt.
Four days after leaving home.
Jiang Yunzhou rushed back to the Supreme Academy, covered in dust from his journey.
As he approached the courtyard gate, he keenly sensed two powerful auras within.
The other party did not make any deliberate attempt to conceal their intentions.
At the same time, he also sensed the presence of Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, and felt somewhat relieved to hear their usual conversation.
He pushed open the door directly and entered.
Two uninvited guests appeared beside the stone table where he usually sat.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze sweeping over Ning Fengzhi. Hmm, refined and scholarly demeanor.
Then his gaze fell upon the tall figure shrouded in black armor, and he had already guessed the person's identity.
Before he could speak, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had already quickly come to greet him.
Both of them were covered in sweat and their faces were flushed, clearly indicating that they had just been training.
"Teacher! You're finally back!"
Ning Rongrong's tone was excited, and she subconsciously wanted to rush over, but when she caught sight of the two pairs of eyes watching her, she stopped herself abruptly.
"Wasn't it supposed to be three days? How did it become four days?"
Jiang Yunzhou naturally wouldn't tell her that he had spent an extra day staking out the location.
"Uh, well, I took care of a little thing on the way."
"Teacher, we have guests at home."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at him with concern, "Are you tired? Would you like to rest for a bit?"
Jiang Yunzhou handed her the flowerpot, "Take this... um, find a place to transplant this orchid grass, and remember to water it."
As if he had thought of something, he pressed on with another question:
"By the way, did Xiao Wu come by while I was away?"
Zhu Zhuqing accepted the flowerpot with both hands. Although she was curious as to why her teacher had specially brought back a silver orchid, she obediently did not ask any further questions.
When Xiao Wu was mentioned, she nodded and said, "He came once, but he seemed to be in a hurry. I don't know if he was sick, because he ran back quickly."
"Okay, I understand. You can go ahead and get back to work."
Jiang Yunzhou nodded, understanding the situation.
