Chapter 32 Return to Nottingham
"Grandpa, what do you want to see me about? Why are you being so secretive? I still need to cultivate. Xiao Ye's cultivation speed is getting faster and faster. Back then, I was level 37 and he was level 23. Now he's level 38 and I'm only level 47. Although I can't beat him, I can't let him surpass me in terms of soul power level."
Dugu Yan complained.
"Oh my, my little auntie, nineteen years old and level forty-seven, your strength is already comparable to those golden generation of the Spirit Hall. It's only a matter of time before you surpass them. Besides, your cultivation won't be any worse than this."
Dugu Bo earnestly explained.
"Why did Grandpa call me over?"
Dugu Yan was puzzled.
Dugu Bo asked seriously, "What do you think of that kid Ye Qinghe?"
Without hesitation, Dugu Yan replied, "That's great. She's strong and intelligent."
"Mmm..." Dugu Bo listened and nodded.
But Dugu Yan's next words nearly made him vomit blood in frustration: "In my eyes, Xiao Ye is like family to me. I treat him like a younger brother."
"Don't you have any other ideas?" Dugu Bo asked, unwilling to give up.
"Any other thoughts?" Dugu Yan paused for a moment, then looked at Dugu Bo with a blank expression, not knowing what he meant.
Seeing his granddaughter's lack of understanding, Dugu Bo felt overwhelmed. He took a deep breath and coaxed her gently, "Look, Yanyan, Ye Qinghe is growing up. He broke through to Soul Master before he was even eleven, and now at twelve, he's a level thirty-eight Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master with two thousand-year Soul Rings. His Martial Soul is the top-tier Beast Martial Soul, the Evil Tiger. His strength far surpasses other Soul Masters of the same level, and he's good-looking too. When he goes out into the Soul Master world, he'll definitely be targeted by all sorts of girls. When you see him with other girls, how will you feel?"
Back when he first fought Dugu Bo, Ye Qinghe stopped hiding his true spirit ring configuration because he was already very familiar with Dugu Bo and there was no need to hide it from him.
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan couldn't help but picture Ye Qinghe with the others, and a sudden wave of irritation washed over her, causing her mood to plummet.
She gently bit her red lips, lowering her head slightly: "I...I don't know..."
Dugu Bo continued, "Then would you like to see him with other girls?"
"I don't want that."
Dugu Yan has always been a bold and outspoken girl who dares to love and hate. Upon hearing this, she raised her head and answered without hesitation.
"That's right."
Dugu Bo finally showed a relieved smile, nodded slightly, and had a look of admiration for a promising student.
But Dugu Yan still had some concerns, "But Xiao Ye is almost seven years younger than me, and he's only just turned twelve..."
"6
"So what if he's seven years younger? Your grandma was eighteen years younger than me back then, and she still married your grandpa. Besides, there's a saying that a woman three years older than her husband is like a gold brick, and he's already got two gold bricks in his life. That kid is probably secretly thrilled. You wait here, I'll go talk to that kid."
Dugu Bo said he was about to go find Ye Qinghe, looking very confident.
Dugu Yan quickly called out to him, "Grandpa, please don't..."
"What, don't you like him?" Dugu Bo turned around.
Dugu Yan blushed. "No, Xiao Ye is still too young. He probably doesn't understand anything about relationships between men and women. If you suddenly tell him this now, wouldn't he be shocked? As a girl, it's too embarrassing for my grandfather to confess to a boy on my behalf. I'd rather die than do that."
At this point, Dugu Yan suddenly became arrogant, crossed her arms and turned to face Dugu Bo, "Moreover, I, Dugu Yan, am confident that my talent and appearance are second to none. Even if we are to be together in the future, it will definitely be Xiao Ye who confesses to me, not me who confesses to him."
"Well... alright... Grandpa was just too impatient."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo realized that it made perfect sense. After his granddaughter's martial soul evolved into a poisonous dragon, her appearance also improved significantly, and she became a stunning beauty that was extremely rare even in the entire soul master world. There was indeed no need for her to lower her status like this.
Just then, he suddenly heard a whooshing sound coming from the top of the ravine. He quickly said to his granddaughter, "Yanyan, that boy is coming down. You can talk to him yourself in a bit."
Normally, Dugu Yan wouldn't have thought anything of it, but now that her grandfather had seen through her intentions, she felt a pang of panic when she heard that Ye Qinghe was coming down. At the same time, she subconsciously began to tidy up her already disheveled appearance.
Then look up at the top of the valley.
A few seconds later, a black figure appeared in their line of sight.
The shadowy figure moved with incredible speed. Just moments ago it was halfway up the mountain, but in the blink of an eye, it reappeared about seven or eight zhang away, arriving before the two in no time. It was Ye Qinghe.
He didn't know what Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan had talked about. Seeing that they were both there, he said, "Senior Dugu, Yanzi, it's good that you're both here. After bothering me for several years, it's time for me to leave."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan felt a sudden urgency and, disregarding her composure, hurriedly asked, "Xiao Ye, are you leaving already?"
Where are you going? Do you want me to come with you?
Dugu Bo also showed a nervous expression. He didn't want such a perfect grandson-in-law, who was impeccable in every way—character, appearance, talent, and strength—to run away like this.
Ye Qinghe glanced at Dugu Yan with some surprise. After spending so many years together, Dugu Yan's affection for him had already reached 100%.
But she didn't show any romantic feelings towards him, only treating him as a younger brother, so he didn't force it and put away his feelings early on. But for some reason, Dugu Yan gave him an unusual feeling today.
Dugu Yan lost both her parents at a young age, perhaps out of concern for her younger brother!
With that in mind, Ye Qinghe didn't dwell on it anymore and directly stated his purpose: "Three years ago, I received a guaranteed admission spot to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. I plan to go back to my hometown first to visit the old village chief, and then enroll in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to participate in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament in two and a half years. If you're going too, Yanzi, let's go together."
Now, Tang San and Xiao Wu must have already graduated from Notting Academy and are about to head to Soto City. Shrek Academy has so many great traitors.
No, it should be called the villains.
With so many villains in Shrek Academy, wouldn't it be a waste not to stir up a lot of hatred for them?
