Tang Yuehua's gentle voice came from the room.
Ye Qiu smiled slightly, took Xue Ke's small hand, and pushed open the door to enter.
Inside the room, Tang Yuehua had already prepared the meal.
"Yuehua."
Ye Qiu called softly and sat down opposite Tang Yuehua.
Tang Yuehua smiled gently: "Qiu, congratulations on your success in the Soul Master Competition. From now on, your name will probably be known throughout the entire Heaven Dou Empire."
Xue Ke sat quietly beside him and began to serve Ye Qiu rice and soup.
"Yuehua, this doesn't seem like such a good thing, does it?"
Ye Qiu smiled helplessly.
The title of genius is certainly good, but it can also attract trouble.
Faced with the enticements of many forces, no matter what the so-called genius chooses, it will always arouse the hostility of other forces.
What cannot be obtained will be destroyed.
Many geniuses have died in such open and covert struggles, dying young.
Although Ye Qiu has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, his own Soul Hall, and even Qian Renxue behind him.
But it's hard to guard against hidden arrows.
Some harassment is inevitable.
"Of course, Qiu, it's good that you're prepared early."
Tang Yuehua nodded slightly.
Xue Ke looked at Tang Yuehua with confusion, not understanding what she was talking about.
"Yuehua, did you call me here because you know someone is already watching me?"
Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow.
He'd only killed Shi Nian recently, right?
That guy was just a lone commander with no background.
Xue Ke didn't understand and didn't think much of it.
Holding the bowl, she handed it to Ye Qiu and Tang Yuehua, quietly chewing slowly.
"Yes, I told you before."
Tang Yuehua smiled, picked up some food for Ye Qiu, and looked at him meaningfully.
"Told me?"
Ye Qiu was stunned, recalling what Tang Yuehua had told him.
Ye Qiu asked uncertainly, "You mean Pope Bibi Dong?"
"That's right, it's her."
The gentle and elegant Tang Yuehua's beautiful face rarely showed a hint of mischief.
Ye Qiu was somewhat bewildered.
According to Tang Yuehua and Liu Erlong, he and Bibi Dong shouldn't have sworn an oath of eternal love, but at least they shouldn't have any enmity, right?!
Remembering Tang Yuehua's words
about this being his punishment, but being watched by someone of high status and near-maximum martial arts prowess, he felt a little apprehensive. He
shook his head helplessly and chuckled.
"Yuehua, could you give me a little hint, just a tiny bit?"
"A hint?"
Tang Yuehua raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly.
"I can only say... this Bibi Dong is a bit abnormal. Anyway, Qiu, you don't need to worry too much, she won't die."
"..."
Ye Qiu suddenly felt that the usually gentle Tang Yuehua had become somewhat terrifying.
What did she mean by "won't die"...
that was too broad a definition! Did it mean she'd lose an arm or a leg?!
"Hmm?"
Then,
Ye Qiu noticed what Tang Yuehua had said.
This Bibi Dong?
Could there be another Bibi Dong?
Since Tang Yuehua didn't want to elaborate, Ye Qiu didn't ask further.
He could only suppress his doubts for the time being, waiting to ask Qian Renxue sometime.
She should be more familiar with that Pope.
After the meal,
Ye Qiu naturally spent another afternoon at Yuexuan.
He listened to Tang Yuehua and Xue Ke's duet, or watched Xue Ke dance gracefully to Tang Yuehua's music.
Then,
Ye Qiu took Tang Yuehua outside for a walk and admired the flowers.
As they parted,
Tang Yuehua nestled into Ye Qiu's arms, tiptoeing to give him a gentle kiss.
"Qiu, really, don't worry too much, everything will be alright,"
Ye Qiu responded softly, savoring her delicate, rosy lips. He looked up and said, "Yuehua, the more you say that, the more worried I become."
"Ha, you deserve it,"
Tang Yuehua chuckled, leaning quietly against Ye Qiu, a deep resentment in her eyes.
They had waited so long…
it could be said they had wasted their best years.
If it weren't for the fact that her martial soul's flaw had been remedied, and her cultivation level now much higher, she would probably be middle-aged by now.
Just letting Bibi Dong teach her a lesson
was something she could accept.
"Yes, I'm sorry,"
Ye Qiu let out a long sigh.
If he had really just flirted and run away, then any torment he might have suffered wouldn't have been too much of a problem for him.
Tang Yuehua hugged Ye Qiu tightly, gently inhaling his faint fragrance, her eyes closed as she comforted him, "You don't need to think about these things now. Just focus on the competition. I might even go to Wuhun City to watch the finals."
Ye Qiu nodded slightly, "Yes, my goal is the championship. I wonder how strong Wuhun Hall's Golden Generation will be."
"Qiu, you're not being honest! Are you trying to trick me?"
Tang Yuehua raised her eyes, giving him a reproachful glare.
"I'm not."
Ye Qiu shook his head in denial, looking at Tang Yuehua's slightly parted red lips, he couldn't help but lower his head and kiss those two crimson lips
...
The next day.
The preliminary rounds of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament were still in full swing.
The Blue Tyrant Academy team had already achieved a thirteen-game winning streak.
And their opponent today...
was surprisingly coincidental.
After the Divine Wind team, Ye Qiu and his team were once again facing one of the Five Elemental Academies, Thunder Academy.
The strongest team besides the Divine Wind Academy team.
Backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, their academy boasts numerous disciples from various sects.
Their strength is undeniable.
Ye Qiu, accompanied by several girls, had barely entered the Great Soul Arena when they arrived at the rest area. There, they saw a fiery red figure waiting for them.
That figure was none other than Huo Wu.
Yesterday, she had walked around the Great Soul Arena, and almost everywhere she went, people were whispering behind her back that she liked Ye Qiu.
She immediately understood the seriousness of the situation.
She couldn't wait to clear up these rumors with Ye Qiu.
To prevent Ye Qiu from disappearing again after the competition,
Huo Wu had arrived early at the Blue Tyrant Academy's rest area, waiting there to explain things to Ye Qiu as soon as possible…
Otherwise, she truly couldn't live a peaceful life, couldn't face Ye Qiu directly!
"Ye Qiu! I have something to discuss with you!"
Huo Wu's fiery red eyes were fixed on Ye Qiu, looking at his women.
Her gaze was somewhat evasive.
"Huo Wu? What do you want with me?"
Ye Qiu looked at her curiously.
"I... come with me, let's talk alone."
Huo Wu's face flushed slightly as she reached out to grab Ye Qiu's arm and pull him away.
"Hey! What's wrong with you, woman? You want to steal our man without even asking if we agree?"
Ning Rongrong immediately grabbed Ye Qiu's arm, pulling him behind her, and frowned at Huo Wu.
This Huo Wu seemed a bit difficult to get along with.
She didn't like her very much.
