...
"I've finally returned."
Luo Nan finally returned to Moon Pavilion in Heaven Dou City.
Without alerting the attendants outside, he walked straight towards Tang Yuehua's private residence on the top floor of Moon Pavilion.
As soon as he pushed open the carved wooden door, a faint, elegant fragrance rushed into his nose.
Inside the room, Tang Yuehua was sitting in front of a desk. Although she was holding a volume of ancient texts in her hands, her gaze appeared somewhat vacant, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, clearly being absent-minded.
During this period when Luo Nan was away, although she appeared calm on the surface and managed Moon Pavilion in an orderly manner, her inner worries grew wildly like weeds.
Star Dou Great Forest and Sunset Forest were both extremely dangerous places. With Luo Nan's complexion looking so poor when he left, how could she not worry about him?
Hearing the soft sound of the door being pushed open, Tang Yuehua abruptly raised her head.
When she saw that upright figure standing unscathed at the door, his complexion even having regained its rosy glow and even looking more spirited than before, the ancient book in Tang Yuehua's hands dropped onto the desk with a snap.
"Luo Nan!"
She abruptly stood up, lifted her luxurious skirt hem, and recklessly threw herself into Luo Nan's arms.
Feeling the slightly trembling delicate body of the beauty in his arms, a warm current surged in Luo Nan's heart.
He extended his arms, tightly hugging Tang Yuehua's slender waist, gently resting his chin against her forehead, and said softly,
"I'm back, everything is fine."
Tang Yuehua's eyes were slightly red as she carefully looked Luo Nan up and down several times, confirming that he truly wasn't missing any arms or legs.
The aura on his body had also become as deep as an abyss, and only then did she completely let out a breath of relief.
She lightly hammered Luo Nan's chest, acting coquettishly as she said,
"Where on earth did you go these past few days?"
"Do you know how worried I was about you?"
"Senior Dugu said you went to a very dangerous place..."
"Just a minor matter, it has all been perfectly resolved."
Luo Nan chuckled lightly, looking at Tang Yuehua's peerless face flushing with a rosy glow due to excitement.
That evil fire that had been forcefully suppressed for a long time suddenly ascended faintly in his lower abdomen.
Luo Nan didn't explain much more, but abruptly bent down, and amidst a cry of surprise, directly picked Tang Yuehua up horizontally in his arms.
"Ah! What are you doing? In broad daylight, put me down..."
Tang Yuehua was startled by this sudden domineering action, her hands subconsciously wrapping around Luo Nan's neck.
Her pretty face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears, looking like a fully ripened honey peach.
The corners of Luo Nan's mouth hooked into a wicked smile, holding her as he strode towards the large soft couch in the inner room.
"What am I doing? Naturally, taking care of serious business."
Luo Nan lowered his head, the tip of his nose almost pressing against Tang Yuehua's nose, their breaths intertwining.
"What serious business... You just came back, don't you need to rest for a bit?"
Tang Yuehua's voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum, her eyes dodging, not daring to directly look at Luo Nan's aggressive gaze.
"Rest? My spirits are exceptionally good right now."
Luo Nan gently placed Tang Yuehua on the soft couch, propping his hands on either side of her body, his eyes flashing with a scorching brilliance.
"Yuehua, I now feel that we need to properly research some issues."
Tang Yuehua's little face flushed red, her long eyelashes fluttering like a startled little deer, and she asked with some confusion,
"Research... research what issues?"
"Graduate students."
Luo Nan leaned close to her ear, spitting out these three words, and then without hesitation kissed those two warm red lips, blocking all of Tang Yuehua's subsequent exclamations back in.
...
Over the next few days, the doors of the room on the top floor of Moon Pavilion were tightly shut.
Luo Nan completely immersed himself in this tender trap.
Although Tang Yuehua was thoroughly tossed about by Luo Nan's sudden madness,
feeling the aura on Luo Nan's body becoming increasingly steady and calm, she only blushed as she silently endured and catered to him.
Everyone is working very hard to become graduate students...
Until the morning of the fifth day.
Luo Nan sat up from the soft couch, looking at Tang Yuehua who was still fast asleep beside him, her eye corners carrying a trace of fatigue and satisfaction, and gently covered her with a brocade quilt.
He stood up, walked to the window, pushed it open, and let the cold morning breeze blow against his solid chest.
Although the land of tenderness was intoxicating, Luo Nan knew what else he needed to do.
"Bibi Dong..."
"Do you think that just because you've completed the god trials, you can sit back and relax?"
"Do you think I, Luo Nan, am a plaything that you can casually manipulate?"
"It's time to take care of business. That crazy woman Bibi Dong, I must collect this debt down to the very last penny!"
Killing Intent was fully revealed in Luo Nan's eyes as he quickly dressed neatly.
Preparing to head straight to Spirit City to prepare a grand gift for that high-and-mighty Supreme Pontiff.
However, the moment he pushed open the carved wooden door leading from the top floor to the hall below,
two dainty figures, like two cheerful larks, hopped over to greet him.
"Master, Master! You've finally come out of seclusion!"
Walking in front was a lively little girl with deep purple short hair.
She was none other than Poison Douluo Dugu Bo's granddaughter, Dugu Yan.
Following behind her was a young girl with a waterfall of aquatic blue long hair, a refined and otherworldly appearance, and a gentle, delicate temperament.
The successor of the Nine Heart Begonia Family, Ye Lingling.
They stood prettily in front of Luo Nan, their large eyes filled with anticipation and excitement.
"Master, didn't you say before that after you came back, you would teach us Body Refining and then take us to hunt spirit rings of higher age?"
Dugu Yan put her hands behind her back, her body leaning forward slightly as she asked somewhat impatiently,
"We've been stepping up our physical training every single day these past few days! Look, when are we going to start?"
Ye Lingling also nodded obediently, echoing softly, "That's right, Master, Lingling is also ready."
Looking at these two vibrant little lolis in front of him, Luo Nan's original full chest of Killing Intent and vengeful anger were instantly interrupted by these crisp voices.
He was stunned for a moment, reached out and fiercely slapped his own forehead.
"Ouch, how could I have forgotten about this matter!"
Luo Nan cursed himself inwardly.
These past few days, he had been indulging in the great cause of being a graduate student, his mind filled with how to settle accounts with Bibi Dong, actually casting the important matter of teaching his disciples to the back of his mind.
Before going to Star Dou Great Forest to find Ditian, he had sworn oath after oath telling these two lasses not to rush into hunting century-old spirit rings.
He would wait until he came back to teach them secret methods, impacting the ultimate spirit rings of six hundred or even eight hundred years.
"Cough cough, of course Master hasn't forgotten."
"It's just that Master has just come out of seclusion and is pondering some profound questions." Luo Nan spoke nonsense with a straight face.
Dugu Yan blinked curiously: "Master, what method do you plan to use to teach us Body Refining?"
Ye Lingling also wore a look of utter confusion.
