Chapter 20 - A Rendezvous in Heaven Dou City

"Your surname is Shui, so you must be from Tianshui Academy or the Shui family?"Tang Chuan feigned analysis, and upon hearing this, Shui Binger nodded to confirm."Then the question arises, your Spirits are mostly ice-attributed, so why come to the Star Dou Great Forest?""The Extreme North is too far and dangerous; we generally don't go there unless it's for a critical spirit ring."Shui Binger explained that they had originally intended to obtain a spirit ring for her younger sister, Shui Yueer. Because it was for a second spirit ring, they had come here with a steward from their family.Unexpectedly, they encountered The Fallen committing atrocities along the way. Such incidents were extremely rare, as at this time, almost all of The Fallen were in Slaughter City."My steward was also because of this..."Shui Binger's voice still trembled. If they hadn't met this benefactor before them, she and her sister might have met with misfortune.Tang Chuan said slowly, "Since that's the case, why don't you come out with us? This is my disciple, and I brought him here to hunt for a spirit ring.""A disciple? You're so young, yet you're already a teacher?"Shui Binger was stunned upon hearing this. Tang Chuan looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. Logically, someone at this stage should still be cultivating, yet he had already become a teacher, and his disciple also looked very young."May I ask for the benefactor's name?""Tang Chuan, and my disciple is called Tang San.""Tang Chuan and Tang San..."Shui Binger and Shui Yueer simultaneously sized up the two before them.The same hair color, the same eye color, and even their temperaments were somewhat similar. Were they really master and disciple, rather than father and son?"Big brother, you two aren't master and disciple, but father and son, right?"Shui Yueer whispered. Tang Chuan's appearance really struck a chord with her, but this Tang San looked just too much like him."Naturally! We are both master and disciple, and father and son!"Before Tang Chuan could speak, Tang San, who was beside him, impatiently blurted it out.He could see it now; these Shui sisters spoke so sweetly, and not only that, they were very discerning, seeing at a glance that they were father and son."Little San!""Hehe."Tang Chuan feigned severity as he called out, and Tang San just scratched his head and chuckled.Now Shui Binger and her sister understood; this appearance was exactly that of a father and son. Shui Yueer felt a bit regretful; she had just felt like she was falling in love, but it turned out the other party already had a family?Noticing Shui Yueer's disappointment, Tang San's heart tightened. Not good, he had been a bit too excited just now and blurted it out subconsciously. What if she stopped liking his father because of this?"Please don't misunderstand. Daddy Tang Chuan is my godfather. My own biological father is already dead."Tang San's mind raced, and once the thought formed, he spoke without the slightest hesitation."Ah? Then we were presumptuous."Shui Binger grabbed Shui Yueer's hand, and they both bowed to apologize. They hadn't expected Tang San's background to be so tragic.Tang Chuan's expression was a bit strange. Was what Tang San said appropriate? If Tang Hao hadn't left and was still nearby, he would probably have slapped him across the face."Let's go first; it's getting late."Tang Chuan summoned the Blue Silver Emperor, wrapped up the corpse of The Fallen, and then slowly sank it into the ground.The four of them walked together towards the exit of the Star Dou Great Forest.On the way, although Shui Binger was very cold and quiet, her beautiful eyes would still sneak glances at Tang Chuan from time to time. Conversely, Shui Yueer kept her eyes fixed on Tang Chuan's profile without moving."Brother Tang Chuan, may I ask... what level is your disciple Tang San?"At this time, Shui Binger spoke. She saw that Tang San looked only six years old, yet he was hunting for a spirit ring in the layer beyond the century-level Spirit Beasts, which was the habitat of millennium-level Spirit Beasts."He just broke through to level 24.""Level 24?!"Now even Shui Yueer couldn't help but take a look at Tang San. Six years old, and already level 24. This wasn't just a genius; it was a monster.Moreover, to be able to obtain a second spirit ring at this time, besides Tang Chuan's guidance, the greatest possibility was that Tang San's innate spirit power was definitely level 10!"Since you can have such an excellent disciple as Tang San, Brother Tang Chuan, you must be very strong, right?""Not strong, just over level 70. It's all just luck."Now the Shui sisters were completely dumbfounded. What kind of monsters were this pair of master and disciple?One at six years old and level 24, and the other under eighteen and already over level 70?Moreover, they had just noticed that when Tang Chuan buried the corpse, the Spirit he summoned was Blue Silver Grass. Could a trash Spirit actually be cultivated to such a level?"No need to be so surprised. Any Spirit can be cultivated; it just depends on whether you are willing to seek your own opportunities, with the exception of swine."The Shui sisters didn't understand the second half, but that didn't stop them from looking at Tang Chuan with envious eyes.And if Tang Chuan didn't have a system, he would probably be trying to find his own opportunities right now, and certainly wouldn't have taken Tang San as a disciple.After all, according to the mindset of the Douluo Continent, at this age, it was impossible to take on a disciple; it should be the golden period for cultivation.While talking, the four of them had walked out of the Star Dou Great Forest. At this moment, some people wearing the attire of Tianshui Academy were already standing outside, looking like they had come to find Shui Binger and her sister."It was the steward who sent out a distress signal before being killed, but unfortunately, it was a step too late."Thinking of the steward, the emotions of the Shui sisters lowered, but they still sincerely thanked Tang Chuan."Brother Tang Chuan, I wonder if we will be able to see each other again in the future?"At this time, Shui Yueer said coquettishly. She was somewhat reluctant to part with Tang Chuan; his appearance and temperament were simply the best she had ever seen.Shui Binger was the same, her eyes filled with a hint of anticipation as she looked at Tang Chuan."We will. In the future, I will take Little San to Heaven Dou City, and there will be a chance to meet then.""Heaven Dou City? Are you going to take Tang San to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?""That's right. The resources there are abundant, and it's more suitable for Little San's development."Tang Chuan confirmed. Beside him, Tang San's eyes were filled with anticipation. Heaven Dou Royal Academy, that sounded like a high-level Spirit Master academy.No wonder his father said he needed to graduate early; it turned out to be because of this. But immediately, Tang San shook his head. There must be other reasons; a single academy wasn't worth his father planning like this!"That's great, I hope we can see you again next time!""Goodbye, Brother Tang Chuan!"Seeing Tang Chuan nod, Shui Binger finally pulled Shui Yueer and walked towards the people from Tianshui Academy. Watching the two little girls looking back every few steps, Tang Chuan felt a sudden, inexplicable sense of guilt."Little San, let's go too. It just so happens that there are carriages available for rent right now."After watching the Shui sisters leave, Tang Chuan took Tang San and boarded a carriage back to Nuoding City.
