Chapter 223 - Preparing to Gather Herbs

"Xue'er-jiejie, that Xuebeng is the fourth prince of the Heaven Dou Empire," Ning Rongrong reminded.

She was afraid this newly-met Sister Xue'er would really go pick a fight with Xuebeng. Xue'er-jiejie was so beautiful—if she suffered a loss in front of Xuebeng, that would be terrible.

"Don't worry, I know he's the fourth prince. I won't act impulsively," Qian Renxue said.

Although she said that, in her heart she had already sentenced Xuebeng to death. Even if he didn't die, he'd have to shed a layer of skin.

Xiao Wu and Gu Yuena were both Ao Tian's women—meaning, her own sisters. How could Qian Renxue tolerate them being bullied by Xuebeng?

She didn't care how much of a wastrel Xuebeng used to be, but now that he dared provoke Ao Tian, he would pay the price.

Qian Renxue stood up, hooked her arm around Ao Tian's, and smiled. "Come on, let's go to the kitchen and have the chefs make some good dishes."

Ao Tian and Qian Renxue walked out. Ao Tian turned his head and called, "You all come too. Whatever you want to eat, have them make it."

Gu Yuena followed with a smile and took Ao Tian's other arm.

Ao Tian found himself embraced on both sides by soft, fragrant warmth. Each side carried a completely different but equally intoxicating scent. He fully enjoyed this feeling.

He was grateful that he had awakened in this era and met such wonderful girls.

Xiao Wu saw her spot taken by Qian Renxue and didn't get angry. She quickly followed.

She knew Qian Renxue was the most lonely one, and the one who had spent the least time with Ao Tian, so she sensibly yielded her place to Xue'er.

Ning Rongrong grabbed Xiao Wu and asked with a strange expression, "Xiao Wu, what's the relationship between Sister Xue'er and Ao Tian?"

Seeing Qian Renxue and Ao Tian so close made her extremely curious.

Didn't Ao Tian already have Xiao Wu and Gu Yuena? Could this suddenly-appearing Xue'er also be Ao Tian's woman?

That thought hit Ning Rongrong hard, and she very much wanted the answer.

Zhu Zhuqing also came over, looking at Xiao Wu, waiting for her explanation.

Zhu Zhuqing's heart felt inexplicably uncomfortable, which made her panic a little. She wanted to go sit alone quietly.But after hearing Ning Rongrong's question, she also really wanted to know the answer.

Xiao Wu assumed they were just curious and didn't hide anything. "Sister Xue'er is also Ao Tian's woman. The two of them liked each other long ago."

Zhu Zhuqing felt even more uncomfortable. Unable to control it, she said, "I'll go back to my room to cultivate a bit more. Call me when it's time to eat."

After speaking, she returned to her room.

Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong didn't question it. They were long used to Zhu Zhuqing's obsessive cultivation. For her to return to her room now was perfectly normal.

But hearing that Qian Renxue was also Ao Tian's woman made Ning Rongrong feel uneasy.

"This Ao Tian is a total playboy. I actually thought he was a good man before—so devoted to Xiao Wu and Sister Na'er. And he still has another woman?" Ning Rongrong grumbled inwardly.

"Rongrong, what's wrong?" Xiao Wu waved her hand in front of her.

Ning Rongrong came back to her senses. "Xiao Wu, Ao Tian has so many women. Doesn't that make you jealous? Doesn't it feel like he's too flirtatious?"

"Nope. And he's not really a flirt. He treats all of us very well," Xiao Wu replied.

Ning Rongrong touched Xiao Wu's forehead. "You're not sick, right? Your man has that many women, and you're not jealous at all?"

Xiao Wu said, "Ao Tian is that good. It's normal for him to have several women. What's so strange about it?"

"Uh… it is normal, I guess. But each of you is a peerless beauty, and all his women. That's why I feel strange. Don't you have conflicts?"

"No, we all get along very well," Xiao Wu said.

"Not talking with you anymore. I'm going to the kitchen—there might be something tasty." Xiao Wu dashed off in Ao Tian's direction.

Ning Rongrong still had many questions, so she chased after her.

"Ao Tian doesn't have even more women, does he?" Ning Rongrong asked.

"Mhm. One more," Xiao Wu answered.

"Who?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

Xiao Wu suddenly became alert. "That one I can't say."

She absolutely couldn't casually reveal that Bibi Dong was Ao Tian's woman.

Seeing Ning Rongrong still wanting to ask, Xiao Wu insisted, "Can't say. Even if you beat me to death, I won't say it."

"Fine, fine. Then can you tell me what Sister Xue'er does in Heaven Dou City? Someone that beautiful should be famous. Why have I never heard of her?"

Ning Rongrong was extremely curious. A beauty like Qian Renxue shouldn't be unknown in Heaven Dou City, yet she had never heard of anyone like her.

"This one also can't say," Xiao Wu replied, then sped up and shot ahead instantly.

Watching Xiao Wu dash off, Ning Rongrong's expression grew thoughtful.

Xiao Wu looked way too suspicious. She was clearly hiding something big.

"Could Sister Xue'er be doing something shady in Heaven Dou City?" Ning Rongrong couldn't help thinking in that direction.

Ever since she learned Ao Tian was from Spirit Hall, it was easy to mentally link Qian Renxue to Spirit Hall.

She thought and thought but still couldn't figure out what Qian Renxue's secret might be.

"Forget it. As long as it doesn't harm the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, why should I care? Eating is more important."

Smiling, she sped up to catch up with Xiao Wu.

Since his master had returned, the steward of Ao Residence had gone out early in the morning to hire several well-known chefs from Heaven Dou City and bought many precious ingredients to prepare a welcoming feast for Ao Tian.

Money solves everything. These tasks didn't take long. By the time Ao Tian and the girls arrived at the kitchen, it was already bustling as lunch preparations began.

The steward of Ao Residence was an elderly man who looked over sixty. His face was kind, his short hair white, but he looked energetic.

He was a Soul Emperor. He had initially rejected Ao Tian's invitation outright. But after Ao Tian easily helped him break through to Soul Emperor, he obediently came to serve as steward.

He was deeply grateful to Ao Tian.

Ao Tian was satisfied with the arrangements. After watching with Qian Renxue and the others for a bit, he left the kitchen to stroll around the manor.

Ao Residence wasn't the largest estate in this part of Heaven Dou City, but it certainly wasn't small. It had complete facilities—guest rooms, gardens, training grounds, everything.

As he walked with the girls, Ao Tian also released his divine sense to check on Shrek Academy's situation.

He had wanted to check that morning to see whether Shrek Academy had successfully entered the Royal Academy. But he had been trapped in Qian Renxue's gentle embrace and hadn't bothered to split his attention.

Once his divine sense spread out, he quickly found Shrek's group.

Flender and the others were standing at the city gate, looking at a notice posted on the wall:Lanba Advanced Soul Master Academy is recruiting teachers.

After discussing, Flender's group decided to join Lanba Academy. They planned to defeat the Royal Academy in next year's Soul Master Tournament and take revenge!

Ao Tian watched and calculated a little, quickly realizing that Shrek Academy had already been expelled from the Royal Academy by Xue Xing that morning.

"Things are back on track again. Interesting," Ao Tian thought.

In the original plot, Shrek had arrived at the Royal Academy in the evening and encountered Xuebeng then.

But this time, because the master was injured, they only came the next morning—yet still managed to run into Xuebeng at the foot of the mountain.

"At this rate, Tang San should be taken away by Dugu Bo today. The extreme herbs at the Ice-Fire Yin Yang Well should be collected. I'll refine a few cauldrons of great pills for Di Tian and the others."
