Chapter 457 An Unusual Master and Disciple
"Xieyue, Nana, what are you talking about?"
At this moment, a tall young man, whose appearance was not particularly handsome but still quite good, walked over in a swagger.
This tall young man was dressed in a black and red armor, with a full head of fiery red hair, and several strange flame patterns on his neck and face. His eyes were a deep, dark red.
Yan is one of the youngest recipients of the Purple Record Medal of the Spirit Hall, and is known as one of the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall along with Xie Yue and Hu Liena.
"Look who I've brought!"
Before Xie Yue and Hu Liena could speak, Yan pointed behind him and stepped to the side, revealing the person behind him.
"Nana, Xie Yue."
Emerging from behind Yan, Ye Qifeng smiled and raised his hand to greet Hu Liena and Xie Yue.
"Little Breeze."
The moment Hu Liena saw Ye Qifeng, her beautiful, foxy eyes widened instantly. With a soft cry, she abandoned her brother and ran to Ye Qifeng's side.
Seeing this, Xie Yue was speechless for a moment. After rubbing his forehead, he nodded in response to Ye Qifeng with a stern face.
"You've arrived."
Upon reaching Ye Qifeng's side, Hu Liena immediately hugged his arm affectionately, even leaning her entire body against him, her eyes overflowing with tenderness.
At this moment, Hu Liena was wearing a well-fitting pinkish-purple dress. The dress clung tightly to her body, outlining her figure perfectly, but also protecting her very well, with not a single openwork part.
Although she takes a seductive approach, she is extremely chaste and conservative at heart. Only in front of Ye Qifeng does she show a bit of a wild attitude.
Her neat, pink-gold chin-length hair fell around her ears, and her red lips glistened with moisture, making her look so delicate and approachable. The fox ear hair ornaments on her hair were also very distinctive, giving Hu Liena a foxy charm.
Her stunningly beautiful face, paired with her slender swan neck, exudes an indescribable elegance that is utterly captivating.
With her near-perfect figure, coupled with the alluring charm and refined temperament, Hu Liena appears both like a bewitching fairy and a pure white lotus rising from the mud, untouched by its surroundings.
Pure, alluring, and full of spirituality and ethereal beauty, just like her martial spirit, the nine-tailed fox.
Every smile, every gesture, exuded an indescribable charm that was irresistible. Even Ye Qifeng was captivated by her beauty.
"Yeah, I came to see you."
As his arm fell into something soft, Ye Qifeng's heart fluttered slightly. Although he managed to suppress it well, his gentle voice involuntarily became even softer.
Hearing Ye Qifeng's gentle voice, Hu Liena's chaotic thoughts immediately calmed down, and an overwhelming feeling welled up in her heart.
Over the years, she had long understood her own feelings, but she hadn't yet confessed them to Ye Qifeng.
It was already self-evident.
"Yan, come with me for a moment."
At this moment, Xie Yue waved to Yan.
"Oh, Xie Yue, wait a minute, I have something to ask Xiao Feng."
The carefree Yan didn't understand Xie Yue's implied meaning and casually waved his hand in response.
Having finally managed to come here, the extremely warlike Yan was itching to have a good spar with Ye Qifeng and show him his newfound strength.
"What are you waiting for? I've just figured out a new move, come and test it for me."
Without saying a word, Xie Yue stepped forward, put his arm around Yan's neck, and pulled him away.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let me ask Xiaofeng for advice first, then I can help you verify it."
With Xie Yue's strong arms gripping his neck, Yan immediately began to struggle.
Xie Yue ignored him and dragged him away.
However, before leaving, Xie Yue didn't forget to secretly give his younger sister an encouraging look, which made Hu Liena blush instantly.
…………
Ye Qifeng and Hu Liena strolled around their camp, and then spent the afternoon together walking through the bustling streets of Wuhun City, where Ye Qifeng bought her a bunch of clothes, jewelry, and other gifts.
Perhaps due to her own concerns, Hu Liena ultimately did not heed her brother's advice and confess her feelings to Ye Qifeng. However, before leaving, she left a deep kiss mark on Ye Qifeng's face.
After sending Hu Liena back to the training camp of the First Team, Ye Qifeng went straight back to his Holy Son Palace.
When he returned to the Temple of the Holy Son, it was already late, almost nightfall.
To Ye Qifeng's surprise, his teacher Bibi Dong returned earlier than him and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
At this moment, Bibi Dong was sitting at the dining table in the palace, her jade hand supporting her cheek, her beautiful light purple eyes fixed intently on the steaming dishes on the table.
She had changed out of her usual gorgeous and noble purple-gold papal gown and into a simple purple dress.
Her full head of pinkish-purple hair wasn't tied up, but rather flowed down her back like a waterfall, reaching her slender waist.
She exudes a mature charm, and her exquisite face reveals a serene and gentle elegance, which is quite different from her usual sacred, noble, aloof, and superior image.
Looking at the extraordinary Bibi Dong, Ye Qifeng couldn't help but be lost in thought for a moment.
Noticing Ye Qifeng standing愣愣地 at the door, Bibi Dong's beautiful face instantly blossomed with joy. She gently waved to him and softly called out:
"You're back! Come and eat!"
Her voice was still clear and melodious, like heavenly music to the ears.
"Yes, teacher."
Ye Qifeng immediately snapped out of his daze, agreed, and then sat down at the dining table.
The two sat facing each other across the dining table.
Bibi Dong wore a faint smile, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Qifeng. Suddenly, she seemed to notice something, and her expression froze slightly.
She immediately took out a light purple silk scarf from her body, stood up, leaned over, and carefully wiped Ye Qifeng's face from a distance across the dining table.
Bibi Dong's sudden action made Ye Qifeng's heart tighten, and he subconsciously held his breath.
Although the pale purple silk scarf that Bibi Dong brought had a very pleasant fragrance, he dared not smell it for long, and did not even dare to move.
"Remember to wipe it clean next time."
Seeing Ye Qifeng's nervous expression, Bibi Dong chuckled and asked softly:
"Was it Nana who kissed him?"
Huh, the teacher isn't angry? Thank goodness, that scared me to death!
Ye Qifeng's eyes flickered slightly, then he nodded obediently:
"Um."
Bibi Dong was naturally not angry. In fact, she was one of the behind-the-scenes manipulators, since she was the one who specially delivered the news of Ye Qifeng's return to Hu Liena.
Although she wasn't angry, her heart was filled with mixed feelings, and the expression in her beautiful eyes was somewhat subtle.
After a long while, Bibi Dong sighed inwardly, looked up at Ye Qifeng, and said softly:
"I don't object to what's going on between you and Nana, but you two should just be careful not to go too far."
Ye Qifeng looked slightly embarrassed, feeling like he'd been caught red-handed by his first wife. He could only bite the bullet and say:
"Okay, teacher, I understand."
Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction:
"Okay, let's eat first."
After saying that, she was about to get up to serve rice to Ye Qifeng, but Ye Qifeng stopped her:
"Teacher, let me do it."
The meal was very warm and cozy.
During dinner, Bibi Dong inquired with Ye Qifeng about his experiences on this trip, including news of the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, as well as Zhu Zhuqing, whom she was most concerned about.
Ye Qifeng naturally told Bibi Dong everything he knew without reservation, revealing nothing he wanted to know.
After all, the relationship between the two of them, though not explicitly stated, already surpassed everything.
Ye Qifeng never lied to her.
…………
Soto.
Shrek Academy outside the South Gate.
Since returning from the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang San has been dejected and disheartened. Even though Xiao Wu's injuries have recovered after being treated by a healing-type Soul Master, her condition has not improved.
Tang San was a proud man. Having stolen and mastered the inner sect's secret techniques, he was very confident in his strength, to the point of being arrogant.
But in essence, he is also a despicable and self-deprecating person. Whenever he encounters something unpleasant or suffers any setback, he easily falls into self-doubt, then becomes decadent and despondent.
This is not
When Tang San absorbed a two-thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider soul ring to the limit and became a Soul Master, he was at the height of his power and ambition.
But he encountered Ye Qifeng and was utterly crushed.
In particular, Ye Qifeng severely injured Xiao Wu's rogue rabbit right in front of him.
He had promised to protect Xiao Wu, but he failed to do so, which greatly affected Tang San and made him doubt his own strength.
In reality, this was nothing more than Tang San's cowardice.
He couldn't accept the fact that he was weak from the bottom of his heart, which is why he appeared dejected and unable to pull himself out of it.
Tang San's symptoms persisted for a long time until the arrival of the useless master Yu Xiaogang, which helped him regain his spirits.
…………
After Yu Xiaogang's legs were broken and he was thrown out of Wuhun City, it took him more than a month to recover from his injuries.
However, he is not fully recovered even today, and it is still quite noticeable that he still has a limp when he walks.
Upon arriving at Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang first visited his good friend Flander and Zhao Wuji, the vice dean of Shrek.
He showed off his "profound" knowledge of martial spirit theory in front of the two of them, and enjoyed the admiration of Zhao Wuji, that roughneck.
Then, after much pleading and arguing with Flander, she finally managed to stubbornly claim that she had stayed on as a teacher at Shrek Academy for Tang San's sake.
After everything was agreed upon.
After learning about Tang San's recent situation from Zhao Wuji, Yu Xiaogang left Flander's office with an arrogant expression.
They soon arrived at the student dormitory where Tang San lived.
…………
All of Shrek Academy's buildings are made of wood, including the student dormitories.
At this moment.
Inside the simple wooden hut.
Tang San, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, had just finished his meditation and was looking at the Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer in his left and right hands, his eyes deep and unfathomable, as if he was thinking about something.
Knock knock knock!
Just then, a few short knocks came from the doorway.
"Who is it?"
Hearing a knock on the door, Tang San slowly came back to his senses and subconsciously frowned. He had already said that no one should disturb him. Who was so tactless as to bother him at this time?
Upon hearing the question, the person outside remained silent, seemingly waiting for him to come out and greet him.
Tang San was slightly dissatisfied, but he still put away the Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, got up from the bed, and opened the door with a cold expression.
But the next second, the coldness on his face froze instantly.
A middle-aged man with a buzz cut, a thick beard, and thick lips stood outside the door. His face was stiff, his back was ramrod straight, his hands were behind his back, and he was looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.
At first glance, he seemed somewhat dazed, but the arrogance emanating from him seemed capable of piercing the sky.
After the initial surprise came great joy. Tang San immediately recognized the buzz-cut man in front of him as his teacher, the renowned first master of martial spirit theory in the world of soul masters—Yu Xiaogang.
"Teacher, when did you arrive?"
Tang San's face lit up with surprise.
A teacher for a day is a father for life. Master Yu Xiaogang is the closest person to him in this world, besides his father Tang Hao and his "sister" Xiao Wu.
Especially at this time when he was deeply affected.
The appearance of Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang brought Tang San a sense of warmth and comfort.
Yu Xiaogang forced a stiff smile onto his bearded face, pulled his hand out from behind his back, and patted Tang San's head:
"I said I would come here to find you, and of course I won't go back on my word. Look, I just arrived at Shrek Academy and there you are."
Tang San felt an even warmer feeling in his heart, his face filled with ecstasy as he enjoyed Yu Xiaogang's caress. Ah, this is love~~~~~~
"Little San, you really gave me a big surprise. I didn't expect you to break through level 30 so quickly and become a Soul Master. Your realm is even higher than mine."
While stroking Tang San's head, Yu Xiaogang said with emotion.
"It's mainly because of your excellent teaching, teacher."
Tang San smiled happily upon receiving the master's praise.
However, Yu Xiaogang's expression suddenly darkened:
"Did I ever teach you that you can't absorb spirit rings from spirit beasts of unknown age?"
Tang San was slightly taken aback, then shook his head somewhat awkwardly:
"no."
He had realized that the master already knew he had exceeded his limits in absorbing the Human-Faced Demon Spider's soul ring and was in danger.
The master snorted coldly:
"Then you still dare to act rashly?"
"Don't you know how dangerous the Human-Faced Spider is?"
"All my hopes are pinned on you. You cannot die without my permission, understand?"
Tang San's eyes flickered a few times, but he ultimately lowered his head and admitted his mistake:
"I'm sorry, teacher, I was wrong."
Yu Xiaogang flicked his sleeves and said in an unquestionable tone:
"From now on, you must never absorb any spirit rings that exceed the age limit I have set for spirit rings. Do you understand?"
Tang San lowered his head even further:
"Yes, teacher."
Yu Xiaogang then calmed down and patted Tang San's head with satisfaction:
"Alright, let's leave it at that."
"Next, show me your newly acquired spirit rings and spirit skills, and tell me in detail everything that has happened to you during this period."
Tang San nodded:
"Okay, teacher."
Tang San then demonstrated his Human-Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring and the third Soul Skill granted by the Soul Ring—Spider Web Binding—which drew repeated praise from Yu Xiaogang.
When Tang San expressed his doubts about his own strength after being easily defeated by Ye Qifeng, and his desire to switch to another martial soul or cultivate two martial souls simultaneously to enhance his strength, he was met with another severe rebuke from Yu Xiaogang.
Tang San had no choice but to temporarily abandon his own ideas and continue to diligently cultivate the Blue Silver Grass martial soul according to Yu Xiaogang's plan.
However, Yu Xiaogang's scathing criticism did wake Tang San up.
It helped him recover from the blow brought by Ye Qifeng and rekindle his pride and arrogance.
