Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends

A murderous intent surged into Tang San's heart in an instant. His right hand drooped slightly, and inside his sleeve, the spring of a silent sleeve dart was quietly fastened by his fingers.

If there is even the slightest change in movement, he is 70% confident that he can instantly pierce the man's throat!

As for the consequences?

Anyone who dares to pry into my sister's and my secrets is doomed!

Just as Tang San was about to make his move, Cinderella gently tugged at his sleeve. The force was light, but it was like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing Tang San's murderous intent that was about to erupt.

Tang San snapped back to his senses and met Cinderella's calm eyes. He took a deep breath, suppressing his murderous intent, but his gaze toward Yu Xiaogang remained icy.

Chapter 49 Teacher Yu Xiaogang?

Yu Xiaogang was completely unaware that he had just escaped death. He was still immersed in his newly achieved accomplishments of "hitting the nail on the head" and "deterring geniuses".

After witnessing Cinderella's shock and adoration, he felt he had laid enough groundwork and then revealed his true intentions.

Yu Xiaogang cleared his throat and adopted a serious and solemn demeanor.

"Tang San, Cindy. Your talents are rare, but precisely because of this, the uncertainty and danger ahead are far greater than for ordinary people. Ordinary teachers simply cannot guide you in the right direction. Only those who have undergone systematic research and mastered the most profound theories in the Soul Master world can help you fully discover your talents and avoid going astray or even going astray."

He paused, looked at the two of them with burning eyes, and finally revealed his ultimate goal.

"I, Yu Xiaogang, although my soul power level is not high, I believe that in the study of martial soul theory, no one on the entire continent can surpass me. I am willing to take you two as my disciples and dedicate all my knowledge to cultivating you into true peak experts! Are you willing?"

The air seemed to freeze.

Tang San lowered his head, his nails almost digging into his palms.

You want to take us as your disciples? You think you're worthy?

Tang San felt that this was a conspiracy prepared by Yu Xiaogang to covet Cinderella.

Just then, Cinderella spoke.

Her voice was still sweet, with a touch of just the right amount of naivety and self-assurance: "Master, what are you saying? Aren't you a teacher at Notting Academy? So, since we've come to Notting Academy to study, we're naturally your students, right? Do we really need to formally become your disciples?"

Cinderella tilted her head, blinked her big eyes, and looked extremely innocent, as if she hadn't understood the subtext of Yu Xiaogang's words, "become my disciple and my personal apprentice."

"Uh……"

Yu Xiaogang was taken aback by Cinderella's unusual perspective, and all the prepared remarks got stuck in his throat.

His original intention was to take them as his personal disciples and establish an unbreakable master-disciple relationship, so that no matter how much they achieved in the future, they would all bear his mark.

But Cinderella's words made it seem like it was just a normal teacher-student relationship, which was quite a huge difference!

But looking at Cinderella's innocent face, he felt that she might not have really understood the difference. If he tried to explain it further, it would seem petty and too ulterior motive, which would easily cause resentment.

He thought for a moment and decided, "Fine, I'll approach them as a teacher at the academy and demonstrate my knowledge. I'm not afraid they won't willingly become my disciples in the future!"

So he could only chuckle awkwardly and head downhill.

"Hehe, Cindy is right, I was too impatient. Let's go, I'll take you to the academic affairs office to complete the enrollment procedures first."

He led the two to the academic affairs office and, speaking to the teacher inside in an unquestionable tone, said, "Director Su, these two are new students, Tang San and Tang Xiandi. Please process their enrollment procedures. They are my students."

After saying goodbye to Cinderella, Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Cinderella prepared to leave.

Director Su of the Academic Affairs Office was a kind-looking middle-aged man. He took the certificate and looked at it. When he saw that the innate full soul power was visible, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He glanced at Yu Xiaogang, then at the two children, and after hearing Tang San and Cinderella's address to Yu Xiaogang, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "You call him Master? Have you already become his disciples?"

Cinderella immediately beat Tang San to it, once again displaying her invincible innocent expression.

"Isn't he a teacher in our college? Then of course we're his students! What's the problem, teacher?"

Upon hearing this, Director Su's face showed a knowing yet somewhat amused expression. He glanced at Yu Xiaogang, whose expression seemed a little stiff, and chuckled, "Oh, I see. No problem, no problem."

He clearly understood Yu Xiaogang's thoughts, but he didn't point them out at the moment, after all, Yu Xiaogang was a good friend of their dean.

Tang San keenly sensed the unusual tone in Director Su's voice and couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, is there something wrong with this master? You seem to be..."

Director Su and another teacher next to him exchanged a glance and smiled.

The teacher, being outspoken, lowered his voice and said, "Master, you do have theoretical knowledge, but... well, how should I put it, your soul power level is stuck at level twenty-nine, and I'm afraid you'll never break through in this lifetime. Your theories sound plausible, but I haven't seen you cultivate any decent students. You guys should focus on your studies at school and build a solid foundation; that's the right thing to do."

His words clearly indicated that he did not fully acknowledge Yu Xiaogang's abilities.

These words were like adding fuel to the fire, causing Tang San's impression of Yu Xiaogang to plummet even further.

He really is a good-for-nothing!

His soul power level is low, and his theoretical knowledge is just empty talk. How dare someone like that covet my sister and try to uncover my secrets?

Tang San's killing intent intensified, but on the surface he simply nodded obediently: "Thank you, teacher, we understand."

The procedures were completed quickly.

The two received their school uniforms and dormitory keys. The work-study students were assigned to dormitory number seven, while Cinderella, as a self-funded student, was assigned to dormitory number three, which was much better.

Holding the gifts they received, Tang San first accompanied Cinderella to the Third Dormitory.

Dormitory 3 is a standard four-person room, and the environment is clean and tidy.

Tang Sanzi carefully selected a bed by the window for Cinderella, and wiped the bed board with his sleeve before he felt a little relieved.

"Sister, pack your things first. I'll go back to Dormitory 7 to drop off something and then come over. After that, we'll go to the city to buy some daily necessities," Tang San instructed.

Tang San had already counted the money Tang Hao had given him; it was a large sum, more than enough for his and Cinderella's daily expenses for the next six years. Therefore, he would never allow his sister to use the rough bedding and inferior necessities provided by the academy.

“Okay, go ahead.” Cinderella nodded with a smile.

Tang San, carrying his work-study student luggage, strode towards Dormitory 7.

As soon as you push open the door to Dormitory 7, a smell of sweat and a lot of noise hit you.

Dozens of boys of varying ages were crammed into a large dormitory room. When they saw the newcomer Tang San, several boys who looked like older students exchanged glances and surrounded him with ill intent.

The tallest boy, seemingly the leader, blocked Tang San's path, glancing at him sideways: "New here? Don't you know the rules? In Dormitory Seven, newcomers have to show their strength. Come on, spar with me!" He then reached out to push Tang San.

Normally, Tang San might still have some playful thoughts.

But at this moment, he was filled with murderous intent toward Yu Xiaogang and an eagerness to be with Cinderella as soon as possible. He had no mood to play any childish games of intimidation with these kids.

Chapter 50 Thousand Paths

Just as the boy's hand was about to touch Tang San's shoulder, Tang San's eyes turned cold. He subtly shifted his feet, cleverly sliding half a step back. At the same time, his left hand shot out like lightning, precisely grabbing the boy's wrist and twisting it gently.

"Ouch!"

The tall boy felt a sharp, tingling pain in his wrist, and half of his body was unable to exert any strength. He screamed and was suddenly propelled forward by a clever force, falling flat on his face.

The whole process happened in the blink of an eye. The other children who surrounded them didn't even see what happened before their strongest leader was already on the ground.

Tang San didn't even glance at the person screaming on the ground. His cold gaze swept over the other dumbfounded children. His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable sense of oppression: "Who else wants to show their strength?"

The remaining children were terrified by his cold gaze and swift movements, and they fell silent, instinctively taking a few steps back.

Tang San then walked to an empty bunk, casually tossed his luggage onto it, and turned to leave, not wanting to stay a moment longer.

To him, the children's fight was ridiculously childish.

His world had long been filled with Cinderella and cultivation.

After leaving Dormitory 7, Tang San hurried back to Dormitory 3 to pick up Cinderella.

The two walked side by side out of the gates of Notting Academy and headed towards the most bustling market in Notting City.

……

Wuhun City, Hall of Offerings.

After learning about Snow White's martial spirit, Qian Renxue did not hesitate at all. She made arrangements in Tiandou City as quickly as possible, and then traveled back to Wuhun City as fast as possible through secret channels.

She didn't even have time to change out of her casual clothes before heading straight to this temple, which symbolizes the highest martial power of the Spirit Hall and the inheritance of angels.

The towering dome, the solemn angel statues, and the pure and sacred atmosphere filled the air.

Qian Renxue took a deep breath to calm her slightly rapid breathing and uneasy heart before stepping into the meditation room she was familiar with.

Qian Daoliu stood with his back to her beneath the enormous six-winged angel statue, his long golden hair flowing freely, radiating an aura as solid and powerful as a mountain.

He seemed to blend into the entire temple, bathed in the soft light cast by the statues.

"Grandpa," Qian Renxue called softly, her voice slightly hoarse and tense.

Qian Daoliu slowly turned around, a gentle smile appearing on his dignified face: "Xue'er, you're back. Is everything going smoothly with the Heavenly Dou Empire? Did you encounter something troublesome that led you to return so suddenly?"

Qian Daoliu's loving gaze fell on his granddaughter, but soon he keenly noticed the unyielding solemnity and a hint of panic between Qian Renxue's brows.

Qian Renxue's hands, hanging by her sides, clenched slightly. She raised her head and looked directly into Qian Daoliu's deep eyes, knowing that no matter how roundabout the process, she would eventually have to face this matter head-on.

Qian Renxue took a deep breath and said in a low but clear voice, "Grandpa, I have something to tell you. I... am pregnant."

silence.

The spacious meditation room was completely silent.

The gentle smile on Qian Daoliu's face froze instantly, as if he were encased in ice.

His eyes narrowed instantly, staring intently at Qian Renxue, as if trying to see right through her.

The peaceful and sacred atmosphere of the meditation room instantly became oppressive.

"What did you say?"

Qian Daoliu's voice was terrifyingly low, each word sounding as if squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with his incredulous shock.

"Xue'er, say it again?"

The powerful pressure emanating from Qian Daoliu spread uncontrollably, making Qian Renxue feel breathless.

Qian Daoliu never imagined that his obedient granddaughter would suddenly become pregnant while carrying out a simple undercover mission.

Qian Renxue could clearly sense Qian Daoliu's shock and anger.

"Grandpa, please don't misunderstand!"

Qian Renxue quickly spoke, her words accelerating, "The child isn't mine! It's...it's someone else's child!"

"what?"

The violent aura surrounding Qian Daoliu suddenly froze, a look of astonishment and confusion flashing across his face, his majestic brows furrowing tightly.
