Chapter 505 Yan Shaozhe: You come! The admissions office, you take over for me!
Starry Sky Forest, Core Circle, Lake of Life.
Small shadows quickly emerged from the woods and gathered together.
A young man wearing a hood emerged from the shadows.
The man straightened his clothes, touched the mask on his face, and walked towards the Lake of Life.
On the shore of the Lake of Life, a graceful figure stands amidst the vast expanse of blue water.
The white dress clung softly to the water's surface, its wrinkles ruffled by the gentle breeze.
The girl stood in the middle of the lake, like a blooming moonflower.
"My lord!" The man walked to the lakeside, knelt on one knee, and placed his left hand on his chest.
The girl was Gu Yuena. Hearing the voice behind her, Gu Yuena asked softly.
"They're gone?"
"Yes, the auspicious beast has already gone with that human," the man replied respectfully.
"Is that so? I understand." Gu Yuena tilted her head slightly, gazing at the distant sky.
The man's expression shifted, and he asked hesitantly, "My lord, the demon spirit is puzzled. Why did you send the auspicious beast away?"
The hooded man was none other than the demon spirit. Having gone through numerous trials and tribulations, the demon spirit had become increasingly composed.
Gu Yuena turned around, looked at the demon spirit, and smiled, "Demon spirit, do you know why auspicious beasts are called auspicious beasts?"
Upon hearing this, the demon spirit paused for a moment before saying, "Auspicious beasts control the fortune of the stars. With this fortune, the soul beasts of the stars can cultivate with twice the results."
"Then why do auspicious beasts possess such terrifying abilities?" Gu Yuena turned her head and waved her hand to grab a clump of emerald green lake water.
The crystal-clear, emerald-green water droplets, exuding a rich sense of life, instantly transform into mist and dissipate into the sky.
A layer of water ripples appeared in the sky.
As the water rippled outwards, the barrier surrounding the Lake of Life instantly became filled with energy.
The demon shook his head; he could not answer Gu Yuena's question.
"It's very simple, because the auspicious beast is the darling of fate, and everything she has comes from fate." Gu Yuena smiled helplessly.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's ability is a manifestation of the power of destiny, but it is merely a special soul beast that can borrow the power of destiny, not destiny itself.
The demon's eyes were lowered, and his face was hidden in the darkness by his hood.
He understood the meaning behind Gu Yuena's words.
When fate provides guidance, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion must follow the direction indicated by fate; this is the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's instinct.
"The only way to break this deadlock is to find something outside of fate, help the Three-Eyed Golden Lion escape the fog, trim away unnecessary branches of fate, or perhaps, walk towards a branch." Gu Yuena's eyes gleamed with silver light, and a strange rune appeared in her left eye.
In the center of the rune, the silhouette of a long spear can be vaguely seen.
A beam of silver light shot out from Gu Yuena's body, piercing through the void and disappearing without a trace.
The demon spirit remained motionless, like a withered tree rootless, showing no reaction whatsoever to the scene before it.
After doing all this, Gu Yuena showed a hint of fatigue on her face.
"My lord!" the demon spirit said worriedly.
Gu Yuena waved her hand and asked, "Any news from the other side of the sea?"
"Not yet, I haven't received a message from my junior sister," the demon spirit said, shaking her head.
Gu Yuena nodded and waved for the demon spirit to leave.
The spirit bowed again and slowly sank into the shadow on the ground.
"Demon spirit, I remember you have a wish," Gu Yuena suddenly asked.
The demon spirit, whose body was already half-submerged in the ground, nodded.
"Then your wish is not far from being fulfilled." Gu Yuena smiled.
Shrek City.
"Remember this! Once inside, stay close to me and don't wander off!"
"Don't blindly approach anything that's shiny. If you want it, just tell me! If I have the money, I'll give it to you!"
"One more thing! Put on your veil! Tie your hair up!"
Like an old father, Ye Nanxiao bent down beside Qiu'er, constantly reminding her of things to pay attention to.
At this moment, Qiu'er was like a curious child, wanting to peek at everything, especially if it was something delicious.
"Okay, okay! Little fox, stop nagging! Let's go eat something good with Qiu'er!" Qiu'er's eyes were drawn to a roasted sweet potato stall, and she grabbed Ye Nanxiao's hand and rushed towards the sweet potato stall.
"Wait a minute!" Ye Nanxiao tried to break free, but found he couldn't.
How strong must that silly roe deer be?
Unable to dissuade Qiu'er, Ye Nanxiao had no choice but to carry two small bags of roasted sweet potatoes and follow behind her.
Qiu'er held the hot roasted sweet potato in both hands and ate it like a hamster, her cheeks bulging.
Looking at the roasted sweet potato in his hand, Ye Nanxiao thought it best to take Qiu'er back to the Tang Clan as soon as possible. At least, if he couldn't handle something, he could ask Tang Ya to teach him.
"I remember this silly roe deer was very aloof, right? Qiu'er was a cold and aloof queen, wasn't she?" Ye Nanxiao felt a headache coming on. The cold and aloof queen in his memory was completely different from the silly roe deer rushing to the next food stall in front of him. Her smooth pink and white hair was no longer blue, but had a touch of soft white.
Could it be that he was influenced by himself?
"Little fox! There are roasted meatballs over there!"
Ye Nanxiao had probably forgotten that although the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was foolish, it was still a mythical beast that was close to the level of a divine beast, and it also had a trace of true dragon blood in its body.
The martial soul that Qiu'er has manifested now is the Golden Dragon.
The power of the dragon race is top-tier.
Before Ye Nanxiao knew it, Qiu'er had dragged him along.
A moment later, standing in front of the food stall, facing the owner's enthusiastic gaze, Ye Nanxiao silently took out his wallet, which had already lost a lot of value.
"Does this count as doing business strictly? Will Nannan still give me my allowance this month after I get back?" Ye Nanxiao blinked and subconsciously rubbed his lower back.
After eating for a long time, Qiu'er was finally led back to the Tang Clan by Ye Nanxiao.
The two Tang Sect disciples, upon seeing Ye Nanxiao, immediately stood ramrod straight, placed their left hands on their foreheads, and shouted loudly, "Greetings, Vice Sect Master! You've worked hard, Vice Sect Master!"
"You've all worked hard! These are guests from the Tang Clan behind me." Ye Nanxiao returned the greeting, explained Qiu'er's identity, and then stepped into the Tang Clan.
Following behind Ye Nanxiao, Qiu'er swallowed the roasted meatball in her hand, wiped her mouth, and replaced her silly expression with indifference. She took light steps and quickly caught up with Ye Nanxiao.
With Ye Nanxiao vouching for them, the two gatekeepers bowed to Qiu'er and continued their guard duty.
As she entered the corridor and found no one around, Qiu'er regained her usual energetic self and curiously took in everything around her.
"Little fox! What are those flowers in the pond?"
The latest novel is first published here!
"Lotus flowers are planted because they are beautiful."
"Is it edible?"
"Strictly speaking, lotus seeds and lotus pods can be used in cooking?"
"Stop!!!! I just fixed up this pond!"
Tang Clan's inner hall.
Ye Nanxiao dragged Qiu'er, whose hair was still wet, into the inner hall.
Inside the hall, Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan were enjoying fragrant tea, while Bei Bei and Yan Shaozhe sat to the side discussing something.
Upon seeing Ye Nanxiao walk in, all four of them turned their gazes toward him.
Ye Nanxiao brushed his wet hair back, stepped aside to reveal Qiu'er behind him, and said, "Everyone's here. Let me introduce you. This silly deer is Qiu'er."
Upon seeing Qiu'er, whose beauty was breathtaking, standing behind Ye Nanxiao, Jiang Nannan and Yan Shaozhe's eyes narrowed instantly, their auras locking onto Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao walked to the seat next to Jiang Nannan and sat down. He patted the empty seat next to him and said to Qiu'er, "Sit here first."
Qiu'er reached out and brushed her hair, instantly evaporating the remaining water droplets with her soul power. She then bowed to everyone, mimicking Ye Nanxiao's mannerisms from her memories.
"Good morning, everyone. My name is Qiu'er, and I'll just call her Ye Nanxiao's sister," Qiu'er said with a slight smile, showing no intention of keeping people at arm's length.
"She acknowledges him, but he's not her blood relative." After Ye Nanxiao finished speaking, he accurately placed his left hand on his waist, blocking the soft, fragrant hand that was attacking his waist.
Jiang Nannan glanced at Ye Nanxiao, got up and stepped forward, took Qiu'er's little hand, and led her to sit down next to Ye Nanxiao.
"Go sit over there!" Jiang Nannan rolled her eyes at Ye Nanxiao, pouted slightly, and gave Ye Nanxiao a soft little fist.
Ye Nanxiao silently got up and sat down next to Beibei.
Tang Ya sat down next to Qiu'er and introduced herself.
The three women chatted together as if they were old friends, and Ye Nanxiao couldn't join their conversation at all.
"This Miss Qiu'er, I haven't heard you mention her before?" Yan Shaozhe handed an empty teacup to Ye Nanxiao.
"I didn't know her before, but I do now!" Ye Nanxiao said with a bitter face. He had just seen Jiang Nannan say a few words to him silently.
As Jiang Nannan's husband, Ye Nanxiao instantly understood what she meant.
"You're lying down tonight!"
It's unbearable to repair!
If you're lying down, you can't do anything!
"Haha, Nanxiao, if you can't sleep tonight! I'll leave you a back door, shall we have a barbecue in the backyard?" Beibei laughed gleefully.
Ye Nanxiao grunted twice and said, "It should be Dean Yan who can't sleep tonight!"
"Oh? What do you mean?" Yan Shaozhe asked curiously.
"Isn't the academy's enrollment day coming up soon? Qiu'er, I've found you a great student, a dragon-type martial soul, the Golden Dragon." Ye Nanxiao took out "Sphere No. 2" and turned on the recording function.
"Good student! A dragon-type martial soul, I see."
"Wait! What did you say! Golden Dragon!!!"
Yan Shaozhe's high-pitched voice broke the silence of Jiang Nannan and the other two's conversation.
Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan both looked at Yan Shaozhe, who was so excited that he stood up, with puzzled expressions.
Ignoring Ye Nanxiao's mocking smile, Yan Shaozhe flashed seven steps in front of Qiu'er, put his hands behind his back, took a deep breath, and smiled, becoming the refined dean of the Martial Soul Department.
"Child, would you like to join the Martial Soul Department of Shrek Academy?"
"Once you pass the inner court's assessment, I will personally become your teacher!"
Two sentences made Tang Ya and Bei Bei stare wide-eyed at Qiu'er in disbelief.
Yan Shaozhe ignored the reactions of the children around him; his eyes were filled with a burning passion, his heart as a teacher was blazing.
