n

n“Ye Xuan!”

nSeeing the tall figure coming out from the wormhole, Lin Shiru, initially in a gloomy mood, immediately became ecstatic.

n

n

nThe dismal she had on her face for several days dissipated in the blink of an eye.

nSubsequently, bloomed a thrilling smile.

n“Miss Lin.”

nWhen Ye Xuan walked out of the wormhole, he immediately spotted Lin Shiru among the crowd with a glance.

n

n

nSeeing the smile that cropped up ever so quickly on Lin Shiru’s face.

nHe got enkindled for no reason.

n“Haha, you finally came out, kid.”

nAt the same time, Xu Younian laughed likewise when he saw Ye Xuan.

n

n

nHe went forward and forcefully patted Ye Xuan’s shoulder several times to the extent where the wrinkles on Ye Xuan’s shoulders became piled up.

n“Miss Lin, I’m sorry for making you worried.”

nYe Xuan said with guilt as he looked at Lin Shiru, whose was evidently worn out compared to a few days ago.

nAfter he finished his sentence, he turned to Xu Younian and said, “You too, Mr. Xu. I’m sorry.”

n“Haha, that’s nothing. The most important thing is you came out safe and sound.”

nXu Younian laughed heartily, “But remember, before you do anything next time, don’t do the same.”

n

n

n“I got it. Thanks for your concern, Mr. Xu.”

nYe Xuan nodded.

n“Lin Shiru, I made a trip here no matter what. I guess you wouldn’t let my trip be in vain?”

nAt this moment, Ge Hongshuang, who had been knitting her eyebrows since she saw Ye Xuan walking out of the wormhole, came from afar and said.

n“Of course not.”

nLin Shiru glanced at Ge Hongshuang, “It isn’t easy for you to make this trip here. I made you a request yesterday, and you arrived today after such a long and hectic journey. I’ll pay you 100 thousand dollars for the road trip.”

nGive me 100 thousand dollars?

nGe Hongshuang’s breathing became stuffy.

n

n

nAt her level, what was the use of money?

nFor powerful Beast Tamers, all trades and whatnot were conducted with the bartering of precious evolution resources.

nOr with currency in the form of Spirit Crystals which was useful for every Beast Tamer.

n100 thousand dollars was for her, money to shun off a beggar!

nAt the side, when Ye Xuan heard Lin Shiru and Ge Hongshuang’s conversation, he got the idea that something unpleasant must have happened between them before his return.

nWith that in mind, he looked at the Spirit Turtle Seer beside Ge Hongshuang and subconsciously used his Beast Editor to determine its attributes.

nSpirit Turtle Seer: ☆☆☆☆☆

nLevel: Platinum (Peak)

nAbility: Deduction, Foresight, Spirit Turtle Water Manipulation, Spirit Turtle Armor, Spirit Turtle Fortune Gathering Array

nEvolution Path (1): Spirit Turtle Divine Seer

nEvolution Path (2): Ancient Turtle of Demonic Fortune

nEvolution Path (3): …

nImmediately, the attributes of this white turtle before Ye Xuan appeared in his eyes.

n

n

nUpon seeing this white turtle’s attributes, Ye Xuan was immediately taken aback.

nNever did he thought that he would encounter a Spirit Turtle with such exquisite attributes.

nIn fact, the rest of this Spirit Turtle’s attributes were not considered strong, nor does it have a lot of abilities.

nHowever, its first ability, Deduction.

nThe second ability, Foresight.

nAnd its last ability, Spirit Turtle Fortune Gathering Array, genuinely made Ye Xuan envious.

nEven his eyes were savoring on those attributes with greed.

nThe only unfortunate thing was that this turtle already had an owner.

nOthers could not snatch a beast that had a master.

nBesides, even if it could be snatched, he does not have the ability to do so with his power level.

n“Fine.”

nAt this moment, Ge Hongshuang glared at Lin Shiru after hearing her words, “Since that’s the case, do bear this incident in your mind, and I hope that you won’t have similar requests for me ever again!”

nHowever, after she uttered this sentence, she did not leave immediately.

nInstead, she suddenly turned to look at Ye Xuan beside Lin Shiru.

nWhen her gaze fell on Ye Xuan, it actually turned into a smile from the coldness before, “Ye Xuan, I’m a teacher at Cangzhou University, Ge Hongshuang.”

n“I do know that you have not officially enrolled at Jiangzhou University. Now, I’m officially inviting you to join Cangzhou University and become my student. I wonder if you’re willing?”

nPoaching talents?

nYe Xuan was startled.

nHe never thought that this woman would be so bold as to poach talent from Jiangzhou University right in front of Lin Shiru.

nHe tilted his head to look at Lin Shiru.

nAnd saw an obvious trace of anger on Lin Shiru’s face.

n“Don’t reject my offer so quickly.”

nHowever, just as Ye Xuan was about to say something, Ge Hongshuang abruptly continued, “You might not know me yet, and in terms of power, I am indeed slightly inferior to this dean of yours.”

n“However, this Spirit Turtle of mine is called the Spirit Turtle Seer. It has the ability of Deduction and the same time, the power to amass a certain amount of fortune.”

n“If you come with me, the aid I provide for you in the future will definitely exceed your imagination.”

nUpon finishing, Ge Hongshuang looked at Ye Xuan with a smile.

nWaiting for his reply.

nSeeing this scene, Ye Xuan once again turned to look at Lin Shiru beside him.

nBut out of his expectation, Lin Shiru was not trying to stop anything from happening.

n“Sorry, I’ve already signed a contract with Jiangzhou University.”

nYe Xuan shook his head and turned down Ge Hongshuang’s invitation.

n“You don’t have to worry about the contract. As long as you’re willing to come with me, I can solve everything for you.”

nGe Hongshuang said with a confident expression.

n“I’m sorry!”

nYe Xuan frowned.

nGe Hongshuang was also a teacher, after all.

nInitially, he wanted to preserve her pride.

nHowever, when she still said that right in front of Lin Shiru, even after he rejected her, he really could not withstand this any further.

nThinking, he glanced at Lin Shiru then said to Ge Hongshuang, “Aside from the contract, I want a gentler teacher for myself, not a fierce one.”

n“What did you say?”

nWhen Ge Hongshuang heard him, her face turned cold.

nIn an instant, Ye Xuan felt chills all over his body.

nAs of, he had arrived at the coldest night of winter.

nWithout any hesitation, he slipped behind Lin Shiru.

nHe could not afford to provoke such a powerhouse.

n“Ge Hongshuang, I’m still here. Do not go overboard.”

nThere was an unconcealable smile on Lin Shiru’s face. Even the words she uttered were as light as the breeze, seeming weightless.

n“Me? Overboard? Did you hear what he said?”

nGe Hongshuang was so angry that her chest was thumping up and down.

nShe viewed her loss to Lin Shiru during the Hundred Academy League a few years ago as her biggest humiliation.

nHence, she loathed hearing that she was inferior to Lin Shiru the most.

n“Well, that’s nothing. It is a fact that you’re fiercer than Miss Lin. Is it a crime to tell the truth? Besides, it would help if you reflected on your own behavior no matter what it is before you judge others. A teacher has to be a model of virtue for others, and you get me?”

nOn Ye Xuan’s shoulders, Lil Wan blinked her eyes and naively muttered.

nYe Xuan was not the only one who could not stand to look at Ge Hongshuang.

nEven she could not stand the way Lin Shiru was treated.

nAnd since Lin Shiru was in front of her, there was nothing that she would have to afraid of.

nHowever, as soon as her words fell, Ge Hongshuang was so pissed that she was almost about to explode.

n“You… fine!”

nHer gaze, as cold as magical ice that never melted in ages, settled on Lil Wan.

nShould it not be that Lin Shiru was in front of her.

nShould it not be that she still had a bit of shame since Lil Wan seemed so tiny and weak,

nShe would have snapped and attacked her right away.

nTaking a deep breath indignantly, Ge Hongshuang waved her hand and recalled the Spirit Turtle Seer she had just released.

nThen, she glared at Lin Shiru, Ye Xuan, and Lil Wan before immediately walking away.

n“Miss Lin, I’m so sorry for this time.”

nAfter Ge Hongshuang left, Xu Younian came forward and said somewhat awkwardly.

n“It’s alright. This has nothing to do with you, Mr. Xu.”

nLin Shiru shook her head, “Since your troubles are settled, and Ye Xuan has also come out from the secret realm, I shall not disturb you any further.”

n“Besides.”

nAt this point, Lin Shiru looked at Ye Xuan and inquired, “Ye Xuan, do you still wish to go into the Spirit Secret Realm?”

n“Of course!”

nYe Xuan’s eyes lit up.

nThe two things he most wanted to do this time after he left the secret realm were to form a contract with the Thundercloud Lightning Wings and the Tidal Treasure Snail.

nAt present, the Thundercloud Lightning Wings had already become his third beast.

nWith the Tidal Treasure Snail, his trip to Cangzhou this time would be complete.

n“Alright.”

nLin Shiru nodded, then once again looked at Xu Younian, “Mr. Xu, I already told you before that after Ye Xuan returned from the Ancient God Planet, I will take him to the Spirit Secret Realm again. I guess there should be no problem with that?”

n“It is no issue, but…”

nXu Younian said after a slight hesitation, “I guess you’re also aware that those two people that came to me two days ago are targeting to enter the Spirit Secret Realm as well. Besides, they should still be in there.”

n“So, if you return to the Spirit Secret Realm, I hope that you can control yourself a little. After all, the situation here at Cangzhou University is kind of different from Jiangzhou University.”

n“Besides, with the Spirit Pagoda in place, according to its rules, it isn’t allowed for Beast Tamers at our level to attack anybody in there!”

n“Relax, Mr. Xu.”

nLin Shiru nodded, “My principal is that I will not find trouble with someone who has never provoked me.”

n“Very well then. Since that’s the case, you may proceed.”

nHearing her, Xu Younian went straight to the point, “I’ll inform the authorities over there for your sake. When you go over, you may directly venture into the Spirit Secret Realm.”

n“Thanks a lot, Mr. Xu.”

nAfter Lin Shiru thanked Xu Younina, she summoned her Platinum-level Flying-type beast, Snowy Bladefeather Eagle.

nTaking Ye Xuan, they flew straight towards the Spirit Secret Realm.

nOn the back of the Snowy Bladefeather Eagle that had its wings spread out more than ten meters, Lin Shiru and Ye Xuan stood side by side.

nThis Bladefeather Eagle was very stable in flying.

nBesides, it also possessed certain abilities to control the wind.

nBlocking off all the whistling gales.

nLeaving only wisps of breezes to fall on both Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru.

nYe Xuan could tell that, seemingly because of what he and Lil Wan had said earlier, and Lin Shiru was in an excellent mood.

nUnder the breeze, the corners of her beautiful mouth always carried a faint smile.

nAnd seeing Lin Shiru’s smile, even his mood improved inexplicably.

n“Women.”

nGazing at her, Ye Xuan could not help but think of Fang Lan and the rest of the girls he encountered on the Ancient God Planet.

nIt was certain that compared to Fang Lan, Coco, and the rest of the girls.

nLin Shiru was evidently much more reserved.

n“Miss Lin…”

nThinking, he organized his words in his mind. He narrated his encounter on the Ancient God Planet, particularly the events that took place after entering the Translucent Secret Realm, in detail to Lin Shiru.

nOf course, this time, he did the same.

nHe said what he should say.

nAnd avoided those that he should not.

nHowever, as he spoke unhurriedly.

nSaying that, he could also form a contract with two beasts after breaking into Dark Iron level.

nAnd that he had already successfully contracted the Thundercloud Lightning Wings that he had mentioned to her before.

nAnd during his adventures in the secret realm, he had acquired the two materials of the Thunder Cloud of Punishment and Transformed Grass.

nLin Shiru, who had always maintained a dignified image in front of Ye Xuan, was stunned.

n
