Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 Tang Yuehua actually really wanted to take the initiative.

Luo Nan still hadn't attached any spirit ring to the Dark Demon Dragon.

He didn't know, if one day in the future he began to Cultivate a second Spirit, when the Dark Demon Dragon also absorbed a spirit ring.

What on earth would happen when these two extremely opposing attributes collided within his body?

With a flick of his finger, Luo Nan accurately flicked the cigarette butt that was about to burn out into a puddle a few meters away, making a slight sizzling sound.

"Future matters can wait; when we reach the mountain, there is always a way through."

"Right now, the most crucial thing is my eighth spirit ring."

For Luo Nan, who possessed a top-tier Spirit like the Golden Sacred Dragon, ordinary ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts could no longer satisfy his appetite.

He wanted a hundred-thousand-year-level Spirit Beast!

Only a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, along with the inevitably attached hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone, could bring about a qualitative change in his strength in the true sense.

With Luo Nan's current strength, wanting to single-handedly hunt down a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast was tantamount to daydreaming.

"However, the situation is different now."

Tang Xiao, the current Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, a Titled Douluo above level ninety, held the number one Tool Spirit in the world, the Clear Sky Hammer.

Regarding single-target attack power and burst damage, those on the surface of the entire Douluo Continent who could surpass Tang Xiao could be counted on one hand.

Although Tang Xiao, as a person, was weighed down and barely able to breathe by the responsibilities of the Sect and Family, and even appeared somewhat indecisive,

Still, he was trustworthy when it came to his credibility and promises.

This was also the so-called bottom line of those upright and honorable Sects.

As long as he played his part well in Heaven Dou City during this period and protected Tang Yuehua tightly and securely.

Once Tang Xiao finished dealing with the trivial matters of closing the mountain gates and settling the clan disciples and freed up his hands, he would have to fulfill his promise to acquire the eighth spirit ring for him.

With the two of them joining forces, as long as the plan was meticulous, killing a stray hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast would definitely not be a problem!

Afterward, Luo Nan returned to the bedroom.

Tang Yuehua on the bed still maintained the posture from when he left, curled up in the brocade quilt, sleeping extremely deeply.

On her face, the look of exhaustion was clearly visible.

For a woman who had lived in pampered luxury since childhood and only had level nine Soul Power, tonight's experience was undoubtedly a storm-like devastation.

Luo Nan did not take off his outer garments, but casually lifted a corner of the quilt and lay down on the outer side of the bed.

Closing his eyes, he swept his Mental Energy across the entire courtyard, and after confirming there were no lurking dangers around, he slowed his breathing and entered a light sleep.

For someone who had roamed on the edge of life and death all year round, even in the safest fortress, he would never let himself completely lose his vigilance.

Early the next morning, Luo Nan opened his eyes on time.

Luo Nan slightly turned his head, only to find that the spot beside him was already empty.

"You got up pretty early."

Luo Nan muttered to himself, sat up, and casually stretched his muscles and bones.

The formidable physique of a level seventy-nine Spirit Saint allowed him to remain energetic after last night's three-hour-long battle.

Just at this moment, a slight sound of footsteps came from outside the door.

"Creak—"

The door was gently pushed open, and Tang Yuehua walked in carrying an exquisite red wooden tray.

On the tray were several plates of pastries with excellent appearance, as well as a pot of steaming clear tea.

Today, Tang Yuehua had changed into a moon-white court dress, her long hair coiled up high and secured with a jade hairpin, restoring her noble, elegant, and inviolable temperament as the master of the Moon Pavilion.

However, upon careful observation, one would find that a trace of unsuppressable paleness still lingered on her exquisitely beautiful face.

Even more obvious was her pace.

Although she tried her best to maintain that dignified and elegant posture, every time she took a step, her brows would imperceptibly knit together.

The movement of her legs appeared somewhat stiff, even carrying a not-so-obvious stagger.

Clearly, last night's match of disparate strengths had left her with quite a few lingering sequelae.

Last night, Tang Yuehua actually very much wanted to take the initiative.

Alas, her strength wasn't enough...

Seeing that Luo Nan was already awake and sitting by the bed looking at her, Tang Yuehua's gaze flickered slightly away.

A blush flashed quickly across her cheeks, but it was soon covered up by her cold and detached expression.

"You're awake."

Tang Yuehua's voice remained crisp and pleasant.

She walked over to the table, put down the tray, and said, "Eat something."

Luo Nan stood up without ceremony, strode over to the table, and sat down.

He glanced at the dim sum in the tray; there were osmanthus cakes, mung bean pastries, and a few other exquisitely-looking pastries whose names he didn't know, sending a fragrant aroma wafting through the air.

Without using chopsticks, he directly reached out, grabbed a piece of osmanthus cake, tossed it into his mouth, and swallowed it in two or three bites.

Then he picked up the teapot, not even bothering with a cup, and gulped down a large mouthful of tea directly from the spout.

"Not bad." Luo Nan mumbled an evaluation, then grabbed another piece of mung bean pastry.

Watching Luo Nan's crude eating manner, which looked like a starving ghost reincarnated and completely devoid of aristocratic etiquette,

Tang Yuehua, standing to the side, couldn't help rolling her eyes heavily.

This brat was certainly lacking in courtesy!

Although these pastries were indeed specially ordered by her from the kitchen for him, after all, the two of them were now nominal husband and wife.

But looking at his taken-for-granted and even somewhat domineering guest-turned-host demeanor, Tang Yuehua couldn't help but inwardly complain in her heart.

"Eat slower, nobody is fighting you for it."

Tang Yuehua said irritably, then sat down on the chair opposite Luo Nan.

Just as she sat down, she sucked in a cold breath, her brows knitting tightly together, obviously pulling at her pain.

There was no helping it; Luo Nan favored the back.

Whether the front door or the back door, both had left behind Luo Nan's traces.

Luo Nan glanced at her, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, but he didn't point it out.

While eating the pastries in large mouthfuls, he asked seemingly casually: "Over at the Moon Pavilion, there should be quite a few people giving you a hard time recently, right?"

Hearing Luo Nan's words, Tang Yuehua fell silent for a moment, and finally nodded, sighing:

"You guessed right. Over at the Moon Pavilion, some people have indeed started stirring up trouble both openly and covertly."

Luo Nan swallowed the food in his mouth, gently tapping his fingers on the table to signal her to continue.

Tang Yuehua gave a bitter smile: "The Moon Pavilion has just started out. Although it has made some name for itself among the high-level nobles of Heaven Dou City, its Foundation is still shallow."

"In the past, those people were polite to me and even fawned over me in every possible way because they knew I was the daughter of the Clear Sky Sect."

"Although I had a falling out with the Sect due to some irreconcilable differences, ran away alone, and founded the Moon Pavilion, outsiders do not know about this matter."

"In their eyes, I am still the representative of the Clear Sky Sect and the daughter of the number one Sect in the world. Therefore, no one dares to act presumptuously in the Moon Pavilion."
