Chapter 21 The Soul Guidance Department Wants to Steal People
Seeing the two of them staring at him as if he were an absolute beauty, Ye Nanxiao slowly put down the soul tool in his hand. As a result, Fan Yu and the other person's gazes followed him, and Ye Nanxiao immediately became interested. "Hey, interesting?"
Ye Nanxiao raised his hand, and Fan Yu and the other girl followed suit, raising their heads. He lowered his hand, and Fan Yu and the other girl lowered their heads as well. ♨🐚 ➅❾𝐒ʰ𝓤א.𝐂𝕆𝐦 🐝♗
Just as Ye Nanxiao was about to play around a bit more, the middle-aged man who had come with Fan Yu suddenly coughed, stepped forward, snatched the soul tool from Ye Nanxiao's hand, and began to examine it carefully.
Fan Yu glared at Ye Nanxiao with some annoyance, while Ye Nanxiao smiled awkwardly.
The middle-aged man who came with Fan Yu introduced himself, "I am Qian Duoduo, the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department."
Upon hearing the middle-aged man's self-introduction, Ye Nanxiao finally took a closer look at Qian Duoduo.
Qian Duoduo was unusually robust, at least two meters tall, with bulging muscles on his arms and short white hair. The most striking feature was his two severe dark circles under his eyes.
"Ha! Cough!" Ye Nanxiao suddenly laughed, but quickly covered it up.
Qian Duoduo wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled and held up the small soul tool in her hand, asking, "Did you make this?"
Before Ye Nanxiao could respond, He Caitou excitedly exclaimed, "Yes, yes, it was Nanxiao who made it! This is a soul tool that incorporates elements of Tang Sect hidden weapons! Teacher, please take a look and see what level of soul tool it is!"
The last sentence was spoken to Fan Yu while panting. After listening to Ye Nanxiao's new concept, Cai Tou felt that he had made a major breakthrough in his soul tool theory.
Fan Yu asked with a strange expression, "You made this? It's small, but you made a soul tool in such a short time since I left?"
Ye Nanxiao waved his hand, "No, no, no, this was originally a hidden weapon of the Tang Clan. I just added some core magic arrays to turn it into half a soul tool, and the outer shell will be melted after only a few uses."
"Let me give it a try." Qian Duoduo slowly injected soul power into the small soul tool, and a small sleeve dart was silently shot out.
Qian Duoduo looked in the direction the sleeve dart had come from and saw a small hole on a special table full of soul tools. A small hole also appeared on the floor. Fan Yu immediately went up to examine the floor carefully, but could not find the sleeve dart that had been shot out.
"The arrow has disappeared?" Fan Yu muttered, examining the small hole in the floor with a soul tool for lighting, and then looking at the small hole in the table.
Although this table isn't a high-level soul tool, its strength is such that ordinary hidden weapons can't break through it.
Qian Duoduo took two deep breaths. Originally, Elder Xuan had only said that Ye Nanxiao might be very suitable for the emerging Extreme Individual Soldier Project, and he let Ye Nanxiao try out the soul tool with a try-it-out attitude.
The Soul Guidance System and the Martial Soul System can be said to dislike each other, and Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe often have a fight every two days.
"What changes did you make to this soul tool?" Qian Duoduo asked.
"I tried to improve it, adding three core magic arrays to enhance attack power while retaining the characteristics of hidden weapons." Ye Nanxiao paused for a moment before continuing, "To increase damage while truly achieving complete silence."
Qian Duoduo nodded, agreeing with Ye Nanxiao's statement. "Your idea is good, but I'm curious, where did you learn about these core formations?"
"I saw it on those soul tools on the table, and then I modified it," Ye Nanxiao said, pointing to the table next door piled high with soul tools.
In Ye Nanxiao's eyes, the core magic array was like a mathematical formula; a slight modification would yield a new answer.
"Repair, modify the core magic array." Fan Yu no longer had the strength to be excited, and even felt a little short of breath.
Qian Duoduo remained unusually calm at this moment, placing the improved version of the sleeve arrow made by Ye Nanxiao into his storage soul tool with a very natural movement.
After taking the hidden arrow, Qian Duoduo saw Ye Nanxiao staring at him and laughed heartily, not feeling embarrassed at all.
"Give me the money! I'm the deputy sect leader of the Tang Clan now, and our hidden weapons are paid for!" Ye Nanxiao glared fiercely at Qian Duoduo.
"Oh? Aren't the materials you're using provided by us?" Qian Duoduo asked back.
"What the hell? Beibei gave me the hidden blade, and I only used the carving knife!" Ye Nanxiao couldn't accept the fact that he was tricked instead of trying to trick someone else.
"That's it."
"The hidden blade was brought by me!"
Watching the two haggle, Fan Yu, who had just caught his breath, couldn't help but smile and exclaimed, "It seems that the Soul Guidance Department has finally produced a genius."
As for Ye Nanxiao's status as a core disciple of the Martial Soul System, Fan Yu felt that Qian Duoduo would definitely have a way to deal with it.
"Radish, huh?"
"What?"
"Is the Tang Clan still hiring?"
"I just joined and I don't know anything."
Having finally extorted—cough cough—from Qian Duoduo and received his payment, Ye Nanxiao rushed excitedly towards the classroom, eager to tell Bei Bei and Tang Ya that he had found a big client with whom he could easily make a deal.
Although Ye Nanxiao has become a core disciple of the Martial Soul Department, he has not yet finished his first-year courses and cannot miss classes.
Yu Chu watched Ye Nanxiao rush into the classroom, a cross appearing on her forehead, and she suddenly swung her pointer out.
Ye Nanxiao reached out without turning his head, trying to grab her, but Yu Chu used her soul power to swing the whip, and it still hit Ye Nanxiao on the head.
"Um, Teacher Yu, please calm down. Getting angry is bad for your skin," Ye Nanxiao said, covering his head and forcing a smile.
Yu Chu glared at Ye Nanxiao, then ignored him and continued lecturing. Tang Ya noticed that Ye Nanxiao kept giving Bei Bei meaningful glances.
Tang Ya frowned as she watched Ye Nanxiao wink at her baby, realizing that something was off about him.
As soon as get out of class ended, Beibei was dragged away by Tang Ya, leaving Ye Nanxiao no time to explain.
"Beibei, boys need to remember to protect themselves," Tang Ya said earnestly to Beibei, who looked completely bewildered.
"Nanxiao, what's wrong?" Jiang Nannan placed her hand on Ye Nanxiao's forehead. "You don't have a fever."
Ye Nanxiao pulled Bei Bei and the other girl back from running away, saying, "Something's up."

"I recruited someone for the Tang Clan."
Tang Ya immediately became interested, "Who is it? Who is it?"
"That He Caitou from the Soul Guidance Department," Ye Nanxiao said. When he mentioned He Caitou, he subconsciously touched his own head, wondering if he would also become overly diligent in the future.
Upon hearing the name He Caitou, Tang Ya recalled for a moment and asked, "You mean He Caitou from the Soul Guidance Department? I think his teacher is Teacher Fan Yu, right?"
"How did you know?" Ye Nanxiao asked curiously. Before he was with Xiao Xiao, he remembered that He Caitou wasn't very famous. Was there only one bald man in the academy?
Beibei explained, "Teacher Fanyu is one of the few level eight soul masters in the academy, and He Caitou was even taken as a disciple by Teacher Fanyu. We are also core disciples, so we have heard of him."
"How come I didn't know?" Ye Nanxiao was full of questions. Lin Susu, who was watching the fun from the side, chimed in, "Brother Nanxiao, you either sleep or focus all your attention on Sister Nannan every day. It would be strange if you knew."
Lin Susu's insightful answer made Jiang Nannan blush slightly.
Ye Nanxiao waved his hand, "Anyway," before he could finish speaking, he suddenly looked at Lin Susu and said, "It seems that Lin Susu is not from the Tang Clan? But this girl isn't very smart."
Silently calculating in his mind, he wondered if Tang Sect's current wealth was enough to place Lin Susu at the main entrance as a mascot and a loli as a signboard, which would probably attract many people to sign up to join the sect.
"Now I suggest that Tang Clan's hidden weapons be equipped with the core array of a soul tool, for example..." Ye Nanxiao recounted his experience with the soul tool system, emphasizing the major client, Qian Duoduo, who had attacked Huo Chuo.
After listening quietly, Tang Ya frowned and thought for a moment before asking, "You mean we can seek help from the academy now?"
Tang Ya has never been very willing to seek Shrek Academy's help in rebuilding the Tang Clan.
"Not now. A new member has joined. Let me report to the sect leader first," Ye Nanxiao waved his hand and smiled.
Seeing Tang Ya's reaction, Ye Nanxiao realized that if he didn't break Tang Ya's obsession, rebuilding the Tang Clan from scratch would take a lot of time, which was unacceptable to Ye Nanxiao, who originally wanted to slack off.
After a brief discussion about the Tang Clan, Bei Bei took Tang Ya, who was frowning, away to clear her head.
Watching Tang Ya and Bei Bei's departing figures, Ye Nanxiao and his companion were bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, leaving long shadows on the ground.
When Ye Nanxiao turned to look at Jiang Nannan, the afterglow of the setting sun made her look like a fairy. The carrot hair accessory shimmered in the sunset, adding a touch of playfulness to the girl. Her eyes were smiling, and her face was as beautiful as a flower.
This scene captivated Ye Nanxiao, who gently pulled Jiang Nannan into his arms.
Looking into Jiang Nannan's gentle eyes, Ye Nanxiao felt his heart melt, and a stronger thought grew within him: "I must possess this tenderness of the young girl!"
Seeing Ye Nanxiao staring at her in a daze, Jiang Nannan lifted her toes and kissed him on the lips. She then slipped her small hand into Ye Nanxiao's large one and asked with a smile, "Are you staring blankly, you dummy?"
"I haven't seen enough, I could watch as long as I want."

Dividing line
"Nanxiao, can we talk?" Just after dropping Jiang Nannan off at her dorm, he saw Tang Ya standing in front of his dorm room.
"Okay, where's Beibei?" Ye Nanxiao didn't go into the dormitory; he just stood outside the door with Tang Ya.
"Beibei...something's up," Tang Ya said somewhat awkwardly.
Tang Ya gritted her teeth, frowned, and asked, "Nan Xiao, what you said today, does the Tang Sect really need the academy's help?"
Ye Nanxiao seemed to have already guessed what Tang Ya was going to say. Instead of answering Tang Ya's question directly, he asked her in return, "What do you think is the direction of the times now?"
"Yes, a soul tool," Tang Ya said dejectedly, lowering her head.
"Although it is very sad, it is undeniable that soul tools have begun to guide the continent. Once, we were the most glorious existence on the continent. At that time, the glory of the Tang Sect was even higher than that of Shrek Academy. But why did we not maintain that glory? There are many reasons, but the most important reason is that the Tang Sect was eliminated by the times."
Tang Ya suddenly raised her head and stared at Ye Nanxiao. Ye Nanxiao continued, unconcerned, "The emergence of soul tools has directly affected the economic resources of our Tang Clan. This is the root cause of the Tang Clan's decline. As everyone knows, the hidden weapons produced by our Tang Clan are now rarely used in the military. In fact, they are practically nonexistent. The pace of the times is unstoppable. Only by adapting to the times can our Tang Clan rise again."
Tang Ya lowered her head and fiddled with her hands. For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat silent. Ye Nanxiao knew that Tang Ya was struggling with his long-held Tang Sect ideology. Although the Tang Sect was not lacking in firearms, hidden weapons required the Tang Sect's unique techniques and forging technology, which meant that low-level Soul Masters could not use or even buy them. But now, Soul Guidance Devices could be used by all Soul Masters.
"The only way for the Tang Clan to develop in the future is to combine soul tools with Tang Clan hidden weapons."
"Our success and failure both stem from soul tools. We have to get back up from where we fell. This is our only way out. Besides, the cost is a bit high, so we're seeking help." Ye Nanxiao finished speaking and then fell silent, letting Tang Ya think quietly.
After a long while, Tang Ya raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with mist, as if tears were about to fall, but she smiled and said, "You're right, the Tang Clan cannot resist the trend of the times, it can only go with it."
Tang Ya's later idea of combining hidden weapons and soul tools was actually facilitated by Ye Nanxiao.
Tang Ya bowed to Ye Nanxiao, who did not stop her. Tang Ya wiped her eyes and said, "I am truly grateful to you, Nanxiao, for your contributions to the Tang Clan."
Ye Nanxiao wanted to pat Tang Ya's head, but then he thought that Bei Bei might be squatting somewhere, so he decided against it. "I'm the vice sect leader you chose. No matter how difficult it is, I will follow you to rebuild the Tang Sect's former glory. Believe me, you don't have to bear the responsibility alone. We'll do it together!"
Tang Ya cried, but her smile was sweet and touching. Ye Nanxiao walked to the stairwell and exchanged glances with Bei Bei.
"Go and comfort her, what are you looking at me for?" Ye Nanxiao raised an eyebrow and urged.
With an unusually serious expression, Beibei said, "Thanks, Nanxiao," and quickly ran to Tang Ya's side.
Ye Nanxiao slowly walked out of the dormitory building, looked up at the sky, and saw that there was no moon tonight.
