Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 78 The Thoughts of Young Girl Jiang Nannan!

After leaving Poseidon Island, Zhu Ziyang quickly returned to Du Weiren's office. Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya had successfully fused their soul bones and were sitting on the sofa waiting for him.

"Brother!" As Zhu Ziyang walked into the office, Jiang Nannan immediately stood up happily.

"Zhu Ziyang, you're finally back! If you hadn't come back, Nannan would have turned into a statue waiting for her husband!" Tang Ya also stood up and teased.

"It's not that exaggerated!" Jiang Nannan retorted, her pretty face slightly flushed.

"Hehe!" Zhu Ziyang smiled and asked, "How was the soul bone fusion? How was the harvest?"

"Excellent!" Tang Ya exclaimed excitedly, "I'm already level 23! Once I use that Soul Ascension Pill again, I should be able to reach level 24. At that time, the gap between me and you will narrow! This is wonderful!"

"Really? Congratulations!" Zhu Ziyang's eyes lit up as he congratulated Tang Ya, then his gaze immediately turned to Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan instantly understood what Zhu Ziyang meant. She shook her head somewhat disappointedly and said, "I haven't broken through. I'm still level 27, but my first soul skill has been strengthened."

"That's good too." Although Zhu Ziyang was a little disappointed, it wasn't unacceptable, since the benefits of strengthening soul skills were actually greater.

Du Weiren wasn't in the office, so the three of them left immediately.

"Hey, Zhu Ziyang, where did you and Dean Yan go?" On the way, Tang Ya's curiosity grew, and she looked at Zhu Ziyang with eager eyes and asked.

Jiang Nannan clung to Zhu Ziyang's arm, her pretty face full of joy, but the next second, her smile vanished.

Because Zhu Ziyang was emitting a faint fragrance, as if it were sentient, that it went straight into her nose.

The girl was puzzled, her cute little nose twitching slightly as she felt the fragrance growing stronger.

It's body odor! But it's not her body odor!

The girl suddenly realized something.

"I went to Poseidon Island," Zhu Ziyang said with a smile. There was no need to hide this, nor was there any need to hide it.

"Seagod Island! Inner Academy!" Tang Ya exclaimed in surprise, her curiosity piqued. "Tell me quickly, what's Seagod Island like? Have you seen any Inner Academy students?"

After asking, he felt it wasn't enough for him to ask alone, so he tugged at Jiang Nannan, who was on Zhu Ziyang's other side, and said, "Nannan, aren't you curious? Let's ask together!"

Jiang Nannan was already distracted and unmoved by Tang Ya's voice.

At this moment, she was somewhat flustered. She smelled an unfamiliar fragrance on Zhu Ziyang. Her girlish intuition told her that it was definitely a woman's natural scent!

Brother Ziyang just came into contact with a strange woman, and it was a very intimate encounter, otherwise he wouldn't have picked up her scent!

What to do? What to do? Jiang Nannan suddenly had a guess in her mind, and a strange sense of crisis surged into her heart.

"Nannan?" Zhu Ziyang patted Jiang Nannan, who seemed lost in thought, and asked in confusion, "What are you thinking about? You're so focused."

"Ah! No, nothing." Jiang Nannan woke up with a start and quickly smiled to cover up her thoughts.

However, Zhu Ziyang instantly understood the girl's thoughts from her eyes, and said with a smile, "When I left Seagod Island just now, I was very grateful for the help of a senior student from the inner academy, otherwise I would have had to wait for the ferry to leave."

"Is that so? Then did you properly thank him, brother?" Jiang Nannan felt much relieved upon hearing Zhu Ziyang's words. While saying this, she thought to herself, "Oh, I see. Looks like I was overthinking it! Jiang Nannan, you still need to work harder; only by being outstanding enough can you win over my brother's heart!"

"Hey! Can you guys please consider how I, an outsider, feel? Can you stop showing off your love like this?!" Tang Ya, who had been watching from the side for a long time, said with puffed-out cheeks.

"Oh, okay! We'll be more careful next time," Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan quickly replied.

"Seriously, I'm so angry! I'll definitely bring Beibei with me from now on!" Tang Ya said angrily.

The three arrived at the core disciples' canteen.

The outer court's core disciple canteen at Shrek Academy is the most luxurious canteen outside of the inner court, both in terms of its environment and the variety and taste of its dishes. Most importantly, all the dishes in this canteen are free for core disciples, which is one of their special privileges.

"Xiaoya, over here!" The three of them entered the cafeteria and heard Beibei's call.

"Beibei!" The three followed the sound and saw Beibei standing in front of a table not far away. So the three walked over, and Tang Ya called out excitedly.

"Sit down, I've already ordered," Beibei said.

"Then we won't stand on ceremony," Zhu Ziyang said, pulling Jiang Nannan to sit down.

"Xiaoya, why are you guys so slow?" Tang Ya sat down next to Beibei, and Beibei asked.

"We're mainly waiting for Zhu Ziyang. Dean Yan took Zhu Ziyang to Poseidon Island," Tang Ya decisively shifted the blame, pointing at Zhu Ziyang as she spoke.

"I see." Beibei also looked surprised, but unlike Tang Ya, she didn't ask any questions. Instead, she smiled and said, "It seems you've gained a lot."

"Of course! We all got a Soul Ascension Pill!" Tang Ya said excitedly, but she was still eager to tell Bei Bei about the Soul Bone, so she looked at Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan with a hint of seeking permission.

"A Soul Ascension Pill!" Bei Bei exclaimed, her face showing surprise mixed with a hint of joy. "Wouldn't that raise your soul power by one level? That's wonderful!"

"Hehe!" Tang Ya stuck out her little tongue. Seeing that Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan didn't say anything, she knew that they had tacitly agreed to her request. So she whispered in Bei Bei's ear.

"!" Beibei's eyes widened instantly, and the joy on her face increased visibly. Her gaze towards Zhu Ziyang also held a hint of gratitude.

After Tang Ya finished speaking, Bei Bei gratefully said to Zhu Ziyang, "Ziyang, thank you so much!"

"No need to thank me, I just made the most beneficial choice," Zhu Ziyang said with a faint smile.

Tang Ya winked playfully at Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan, clearly indicating that she had chosen to conceal Jiang Nannan's soul bone.

After dinner, the four of them returned to their dormitory.

"Xiaoya, you go up first," Jiang Nannan said to Tang Ya at the top of the stairs.

"Remember to come back early, and don't stay out all night..." Tang Ya couldn't help but smile mischievously when she heard Jiang Nannan's words, teasing her.

"Oh dear! Xiaoya!" Jiang Nannan's pretty face flushed slightly as she said coquettishly.

"Hehehe~" Tang Ya left with a mischievous smile.

Jiang Nannan followed Zhu Ziyang into the dormitory.

"Brother." Jiang Nannan hugged Zhu Ziyang, her little head pressed against his chest, murmuring.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly hugging me like this? Are you afraid I'll run away?" Zhu Ziyang wrapped his arms around the girl, first teasingly, then said solemnly, "Don't worry, I won't leave you."

"Hmm!" The girl nodded and hummed softly.

"Aren't you curious about what I did on Poseidon Island?" Zhu Ziyang asked gently as he sat on the bed with the girl in his arms.

"Aren't I curious?" Jiang Nannan looked up, her pink eyes filled with dependence, and said, "I'm not Xiaoya, who's full of curiosity about everything."

"Good girl!" Zhu Ziyang couldn't help but stroke the girl's hair upon hearing this, and said, "Actually, it's very simple. She was just taken to meet a group of people and also became an apprentice to a teacher."

"Meeting someone? Becoming a disciple?" Jiang Nannan sat up abruptly, her face filled with excitement. "Could it be that you, brother, have become Dean Yan's disciple? That's wonderful! I heard that Dean Yan is a level 95 Title Douluo, and his martial soul is the Phoenix of Light, which is very compatible with your Heavenly Resurrection Scythe martial soul! This is fantastic!"

"Hehe." Seeing the girl's excitement, Zhu Ziyang couldn't help but smile and said, "More or less."

The girl was so engrossed in her joy that she subconsciously ignored what Zhu Ziyang said next.

Before learning the truth from Zhu Ziyang, the girl would never have imagined that her Ziyang brother had not become Dean Yan's disciple, but Dean Yan's junior brother.
