In Douluo Continent, I saved Zhu Zhuqing at the beginning.

He carefully examined the patterns on the longbow, feeling a sense of familiarity.

Nothing special, except for its weight, it's just an ordinary-looking horn bow.

Wait, cow horns!

Holy crap, no way...

Flanders thought of a possibility.

Because the pattern on this bull horn looks very much like the horn of a blue ox python!

But how could a powerful ruler be made into a bow out of ox horns?

Flander couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself.

You said you'd never seen a blue ox python, but you've already made a longbow out of its horns, okay?

However, once he had the bow and arrow in his hands, Flander couldn't help but want to try drawing it.

However, his arm strength was clearly insufficient.

So he used his soul power.

However, the more soul power he poured in, the more horrified he became.

Because his soul power was like a cow entering the sea, not even causing a ripple.

"How could there be such a terrifying bow and arrow! I feel like it's alive."

Flanders was somewhat wrong.

Because after he stopped inputting soul power, a feeling of dissatisfaction appeared in his mind.

It's as if it's saying, "I want more!"

Chapter Ten: Where's the promised dragon's den and tiger's lair?

I think she's a persistent little devil.

Flander was secretly surprised.

He had a feeling that even if he drained all his soul power, he wouldn't be able to feed this guy.

and so.

He chose to give up.

It's fine if this bow isn't drawn. It's not a person, I can't stoop to its level.

Flanders comforted himself with this thought.

However, as he shifted his gaze, he noticed that Lin Yan, with his sleeves still on, had already reached the lakeside.

"Is he going to clean the fish directly?"

Keep in mind that the water temperature is quite high.

Soul beasts like the Flying Shuttlefish are incredibly powerful, but their growth conditions are extremely demanding. They have very specific requirements for the water they inhabit.

Take this lake in front of us, for example. Although it's not frozen, the water temperature is extremely low, reaching tens or even hundreds of degrees below zero.

To put it bluntly, if a Soul Master enters the water without using their Soul Power, they will instantly freeze into a block of ice.

Even a Soul Saint-level expert like Flander wouldn't easily take risks without the protection of soul power.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the three-headed dog named Big Black just went in for a swim.

But that doesn't mean everyone can withstand it.

The physique of a soul beast with a lifespan of hundreds of thousands of years is simply beyond human imagination.

"Dean Flander, come quick! This water is so refreshing and cool."

Lin Yan had already arrived at the lakeside and even splashed water with his hand.

"Uh...cool and refreshing? Feels good? I'm not buying it."

Flander's eyelids twitched wildly, and he was utterly shocked.

The next moment, Flander saw another horrifying scene.

Lin Yan pulled out a half-foot-long, pitch-black kitchen knife from somewhere.

The cleaver was a matte black, with no visible sharpness.

But Lin Yan picked up this seemingly inconspicuous kitchen knife and began to gut the flying shuttle, then washed it by the lake.

Flander froze instantly. How sharp must a kitchen knife be to render that surface, harder than metal, as nothing?

Lin Yan handled the fish with great skill.

The entire process, from gutting to removing the head and tail, is completed in a matter of moments.

A short while later, Lin Yan arrived in front of Flander, took the longbow from Flander's hand, and then casually slung it over his shoulder.

"I'm so sorry. I've kept you waiting."

Lin Yan smiled slightly.

"It's alright," Flander quickly waved his hand, not daring to say anything more.

Now, he is completely convinced.

Respecting the strong is not shameful.

He, a dignified Soul Saint, couldn't even draw a hunting bow.

He himself is a dignified Soul Saint, yet he dares to touch water.

As a dignified Soul Saint... well, never mind, let's not talk about it!

In his heart, Flander felt even more respect for Lin Yan.

This big shot's style of doing things is hard to fathom.

.

The sapphire-like lake is not far from where Lin Yan lives.

It only took about ten minutes to reach his residence.

When a courtyard built along a stream appeared before Flander, he was speechless for a long time.

"Damn it. My mentality has collapsed. Shouldn't the very center of the Star Dou Great Forest be a den of dragons and tigers?"

"But what happened to the promised dragon's den and tiger's lair?"

Flanders muttered to himself.

This place is so different from the forbidden deep place I've heard about!

"Dean Flander, what are you saying?"

Lin Yan asked, puzzled. He genuinely hadn't heard clearly.

"I'm saying this place has beautiful scenery."

Flanders chuckled.

"This place is indeed nice. Besides the beautiful scenery, it's also very safe. There isn't even a single soul beast here."

If you were to ask Lin Yan what he's most satisfied with in this world, it would undoubtedly be the Pure Land right before his eyes.

It was very peaceful.

Haha, whatever you say goes.

Flander looked at Big Black and smiled without saying a word.

Before the two people and the dog even reached the door, they had already disturbed the people inside the courtyard.

They then heard a surprised and uncertain sound.

"Teacher, is that you back?"

"Qing'er, it's me."

Lin Yan responded.

Then, Flander saw the wooden door being pushed open. A youthful and pretty figure rushed into Lin Yan's arms like a swallow returning to its nest.

Even Flanders, who had seen countless people, couldn't help but exclaim, "What a naturally beautiful woman!"

"I thought you didn't want Qing'er anymore. Why did it take you so long to come back?"

Zhu Zhuqing said coquettishly.

In less than half a day, she found herself incredibly reluctant to part with Lin Yan.

"Alright, Qing'er, there are still guests here."

Lin Yan gave an awkward smile and gently patted the kitten in his arms. He introduced, "This is Dean Flander of Shrek Academy."

"Hello, Dean Flander. My name is Zhu Zhuqing."

Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes flashed; she hadn't expected that the figure as dark as charcoal was Flander.

What a coincidence!

She has now made up her mind to go to Shrek Academy to break off the engagement once she obtains her third soul ring.

After that, he returned to the Starry Sky Forest to stay by his teacher's side.

"Hello."

Flander was also startled. He remembered that one of his students had mentioned that he had a fiancée named Zhu Zhuqing.

However, after witnessing the intimate relationship between Lin Yan and Zhu Zhuqing, Flander dared not mention it.

After Flander entered the courtyard, Lin Yan invited him to sit down. "Dean, please rest for a bit. I'll go prepare dinner. Tonight we'll have a stone pot grilled fish."

"Grilled fish!"

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes lit up.

She lingered over Lin Yan's delicious food.
