Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as Dongfang Qingcang, Unrivaled in the Mortal World

Chapter 45 The master truly lives up to his name; he speaks the entire time.

The sun sets, casting long shadows on the distant mountains.

Dongfang Qingcang looked at the crystal in his hand, a hint of helplessness flashing across his face. He had been wandering around all day and had only managed to get one crystal so far.

It seems that obtaining more magic power is not easy.

Little Orchid was exhausted and followed Dongfang Qingcang with faltering steps, saying with a mournful face, "Great Demon, we've been shopping all day, how much longer are we going to keep going?"

Hearing Xiao Lanhua's complaint, Dongfang Qingcang, who was walking at the front, also stopped, looked up slightly, and glanced at the time.

He then nodded and said, "Alright then, let's go back for today and come back to search tomorrow."

"Want to come again?"

Xiao Lanhua's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately shook her head, expressing strong dissatisfaction: "No, if you want to do it, do it yourself. I can't walk anymore. Do you know how tiring it is?"

Dongfang Qingcang ignored Xiao Lanhua and walked straight back towards the courtyard. Although today's harvest wasn't much, he had at least gotten what he wanted; after all, even a fly's leg is still a piece of meat.

As soon as they returned to the courtyard, they saw Master Yu Xiaogang standing there from afar, carrying two large items. The master was clearly exhausted; he had been standing all day and his body was obviously not able to hold on any longer.

Although Yu Xiaogang is also a Soul Master, he is only level 29, and he is already over 50 years old, so he is obviously not up to the task.

"Huh?" Little Orchid raised an eyebrow, looking at the honey badger at the door with surprise. "Is that one of the teachers from Shrek Academy?"

Dongfang Qingcang also noticed the master, and then said with a sneer, "I didn't expect him to actually dare to come here. He really doesn't know his own limitations."

The master heard a familiar voice at that moment, and when he saw Dongfang Qingcang and Xiaolanhua walking over from not far away, his expression was like the third emoji on your phone, standing there dumbfounded.

They actually came back from outside.

In other words...

I waited all day, but the other person wasn't even in the courtyard.

Thinking of this, the master's face turned extremely ugly. If he had known the other party wasn't home, why had he waited so long?

Isn't that obviously stupid?

The master had a strange expression, but after thinking about the purpose of his visit, he could only ignore the soreness and numbness in his body and lift his numb legs to reach Dongfang Qingcang with difficulty.

"Greetings... Your Excellency..."

Little Orchid blinked and asked first, "Honey Badger, you haven't been standing here all day, have you?"

"Hmm." The master awkwardly touched his nose and said bitterly, "This junior did not expect that His Excellency was not at home, so I have been standing here waiting."

"That's bold."

Little Orchid gave a thumbs up.

In this sweltering heat, the honey badger actually stood here all day. I have to say, this guy has some guts. If it were anyone else, they would probably have avoided it like the plague.

With one hand hovering behind his back, Dongfang Qingcang asked calmly, "What brings you here?"

The master quickly handed over the gift in his hand, and tried his best to force a smile in order to express his respect for Venerable Dongfang.

Since the incident with Liu Erlong ended, the master has never smiled again. Even Flander was helpless about it. No matter how he tried to solve it, the master never smiled.

In order to maintain a friendly relationship with the titled Douluo, the Grandmaster is forcing himself to smile, but the forced smile is even uglier than a pig being slaughtered.

Dongfang Qingcang waved his hand and said, "You'd better stop laughing. I really can't stand it."

"Well……"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang, nicknamed "Honey Badger," nodded awkwardly.

Since the esteemed one did not like it, he withdrew his smile, which was even uglier than a grimace.

Dongfang Qingcang ignored the gift the master had given him, bypassed the latter, and walked straight into the courtyard.

Xiao Lanhua, however, was more pragmatic. Since the other party had already delivered it, there was no reason to refuse. Besides, refusing would only hurt the feelings of the honey badger.

After accepting the gift, the master's complexion gradually improved.

Once the gifts are accepted, I can then befriend them properly. If I can get them to join Shrek Academy, it will be entirely beneficial.

Thinking of this, a hint of joy flashed across the master's face as he followed Xiao Lanhua into the familiar courtyard.

Dongfang Qingcang sat in the pavilion, Hua Lei personally poured him a cup of tea, then glanced at the reserved Master Yu Xiaogang and asked in confusion, "Your Excellency, what is he doing here?"

"Who knows?"

Dongfang Qingcang shrugged, glanced sideways at Master Yu Xiaogang, and asked calmly, "What brings you here?"

Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang stepped forward, bowed again to Dongfang Qingcang, and said respectfully, "It is so, Your Excellency. I heard that you are new to Tiandou, and this mansion belongs to the current Crown Prince."

"We currently have an empty plot of land behind Shrek Academy, and we've decided to build a room for Your Excellency. What do you think, Your Excellency?"

It must be said that Master Yu Xiaogang's shrewdness and cunning are in no way inferior to Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. He also understands that directly inviting the other party is not a wise choice.

But this kind of talk can certainly make the other party feel a little warm, and it won't offend them. It's a win-win situation, so why not?

Dongfang Qingcang glanced at Master Yu Xiaogang out of the corner of his eye and sneered inwardly, "Does this guy think I'm an idiot?"

Is it similar to Ning Fengzhi?

"No, the environment here is nice, and it's located within Tiandou City, making it convenient to go out."

Upon hearing this, the master merely nodded and smiled slightly, without showing any unusual expression on his face.

It was as if he had long anticipated that Dongfang Qingcang would refuse to join Shrek Academy, but the Grandmaster had already come up with a solution.

The master strode over, smiling as he said, "I heard that Your Excellency is looking for a place called Shuiyuntian. I've heard of this place in ancient books."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Qingcang's right hand, which was holding up the teacup, paused for a moment, his brows furrowed slightly, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

This master really has a mouth, but he just talks nonsense. It's obviously unrealistic to think he can convince everyone with just that mouth.

Besides, this is the Douluo Continent, not the Canglan Jue. The two are familiar with different dimensions of space, so how could he know the exact location of Shui Yuntian?

They were indeed quite arrogant and ignorant.

Do you really know Shuiyuntian?

However, the somewhat dim-witted Little Orchid believed Master Yu Xiaogang and rushed over, excitedly asking, "Where is Shui Yuntian? Tell me quickly!"
