Douluo Dragon King: The Blue Silver Divine Tree, The Holy Dragon Devours the Heavens

Xu Mengqing froze on the spot, her little face a mixture of laughter and tears, and after a long while she could only manage to utter one sentence:

"Mom and Dad, you...you're so mean!"

In that instant, he was truly anxious, even abandoning the composure of a transmigrator, fearing that Na'er would be sent to an orphanage in the blink of an eye, rendering all his previous efforts futile.

Seeing his son's completely bewildered expression, Xu Zhan couldn't help but burst into laughter, reaching out to ruffle his hair.

"Who told you to be so protective of your wife? I didn't know you cared so much if I didn't tease you."

Meng Ling'er held Na'er in her arms, gently smoothing the stray hairs from her forehead, her eyes filled with tenderness:

"Na'er is so well-behaved, we liked her at first sight. The administrator was also accommodating, so she'll be temporarily registered under our name, and we'll help her find her family later. From now on, she'll be a member of our family."

Na'er leaned against Meng Ling'er's chest, secretly glancing at Xu Mengqing, a faint, timid yet incredibly pure smile appearing on her small face.

That one glance instantly dispelled all the gloom in Xu Mengqing's heart.

Well, if I've been fooled, I've been fooled.

As long as Na'er can stay, it's all worth it.

He cleared his throat, put on a grown-up air, and solemnly said to Na'er:

"Na'er, from today onwards, you are my own sister. If anyone dares to bully you, I'll be the first to object."

He had barely finished speaking when he suddenly remembered his important matter, his eyes straightened, and he looked at his parents:

"By the way, Mom and Dad, there's something very important I want to discuss with you."

Xu Zhan raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Our Xiao Qing has something important to announce?"

"I want to transform the entire backyard into a training ground for Blue Silver Grass." Xu Mengqing's tone was serious, without a trace of joking. "My martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Meditation in places with abundant Blue Silver Grass will greatly accelerate my cultivation. I want to plant this place full of Blue Silver Grass and build a simulated training ground."

Meng Ling'er was slightly taken aback, then nodded gently:

"I see. Cultivation is a big deal, of course your parents support you. If you need anything, just tell us."

Xu Zhan readily agreed: "No problem! I'll buy some grass seeds tomorrow, and we'll plant blue silver grass all over our backyard together!"

Xu Mengqing felt a warmth in her heart.

Dinner time.

To celebrate the arrival of the new member, Meng Ling'er specially prepared a large table of dishes.

At first, Na'er seemed a little reserved, only daring to pick up the food from the plate in front of her.

But with Meng Ling'er's gentle encouragement and Xu Mengqing's enthusiastic piling of food onto her plate, Na'er finally opened up.

This sudden release completely stunned Xu Zhan and Meng Ling'er.

With a swift movement of her cherry-like lips, Na'er caused the food in front of her to disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Glug..." Xu Zhan swallowed hard as he watched the braised pork he had just reached out his chopsticks to pick up vanish in an instant.

One bowl of rice, two bowls of rice, three bowls of rice...

That seemingly slender and delicate belly, flat without an ounce of fat, was like a bottomless pit.

One by one, the plates on the table emptied, and the rice in the rice cooker was scraped clean. "This...this..."

Meng Ling'er, holding a rice spoon, froze as she watched Na'er happily drinking her soup.

"Where did all the food go? The baby is so small, why isn't their tummy bulging at all?"

Xu Zhan joked, "My dear wife, we didn't just pick up a daughter, we picked up a glutton! At this rate, I'll have to apply for overtime pay!"

Compared to her parents' stunned silence, Xu Mengqing remained remarkably calm.

He chuckled inwardly: "Are you kidding me? This is the Silver Dragon King. How could a dragon have a small appetite?"

This little bit of stuff is probably just enough to fill a gap in her teeth and replenish the energy she needs for transformation.

After dinner, since there were only two rooms in the house, Na'er stayed and naturally had to share a room with Xu Mengqing. Xu Zhan and his son Xu Mengqing built another bed in the room using wooden planks, and Meng Ling'er brought clean bedding and laid it out to serve as Na'er's temporary bed.

Na'er seemed very tired. She lay down on the soft little bed and quickly fell asleep.

"Dad, Mom, I'm going to meditate in the backyard." After saying goodbye to the couple, Xu Mengqing went back to the place where she had meditated before and began to meditate again.

He didn't quietly return to his room to sleep until late at night.

……

The next morning, Xu Mengqing got up early and finished washing up.

At the dining table, Xu Mengqing and Na'er's mother had already prepared a hot breakfast, while Xu Zhan had gone to work early.

After having breakfast together, Xu Mengqing said goodbye to Meng Ling'er and Na'er and went to Hongshan Academy alone.

Meng Ling'er then took Na'er to buy some daily necessities and changes of clothes.

The Soul Master class at Hongshan Academy doesn't study Soul Master knowledge every day; instead, they alternate between Soul Master knowledge one day and academic classes the next.

Xu Mengqing's class today was a general education subject.

When Xu Mengqing entered the classroom, she already saw Tang Wulin in his seat.

"Wu Lin, good morning." Xu Mengqing walked to the seat next to Tang Wu Lin and pulled out a chair to sit down.

Tang Wulin looked up and gave a gentle smile: "Meng Qing, good morning."

After exchanging greetings, the two began their respective cultivation practices.

After a full day of academic classes, Xu Mengqing finally made it to the end of the school day.

Xu Mengqing and Tang Wulin left the classroom together. As soon as they stepped out of the school gate, Xu Mengqing saw a woman approaching them.

"Mom, why did you come to pick me up?" Tang Wulin asked the woman in surprise.

"Linlin, have you forgotten? Today we're taking you to see Uncle Mangtian."

"Hello, Auntie." Xu Mengqing greeted her politely.

Lang Yue gave Xu Mengqing an apologetic look, "You must be Xu Mengqing! I'm sorry, Auntie is taking Linlin somewhere today."

Xu Mengqing smiled and said to Lang Yue, "In that case, I'll be going now. Goodbye, Auntie. See you tomorrow, Tang Wulin."

Xu Mengqing then left alone with her schoolbag on her back.

During his conversation with Tang Wulin at noon, Xu Mengqing learned that Tang Wulin had gone to Mangtian Studio to learn forging in order to save money to buy soul spirits.

At first, he thought that without Na'er, Tang Wulin wouldn't have started learning forging so early.

Of course, Xu Mengqing did not intend to use Tang Wulin's connection to learn forging from Mangtian.

On the one hand, Tang Wulin did not invite him to join. In his previous life, as a college student, he was neither as naive as a child nor as shameless as an adult who had experienced society.

On the other hand, he did not have Tang Wulin's acquired divine power. Tang Wulin had been getting stronger since childhood due to the power leaking from the Golden Dragon King's divine core. At the age of six, his strength was almost the same as that of an adult, and at the age of nine, he had the strength of a thousand catties, which was stronger than that of ordinary powerful soul masters. His physical strength even surpassed that of Wu Changkong.

Moreover, during the forging process, the Golden Dragon King's Divine Core would continuously restore his stamina, something Xu Mengqing could never match with his Iron-Forging Saint Body.

Xu Mengqing's strength is indeed far greater than Tang Wulin's now that he is possessed by the Holy Dragon Lizard Martial Soul, but this consumes soul power. Xu Mengqing's physical fitness is only at the level of a normal soul master, and a single forging session usually takes at least one or two hours.

Xu Mengqing was afraid that while he was forging iron, the hammer would accidentally fly off and hit someone's head.

As for my second job, I'll figure that out later!
