Chapter 20 Liu Erlong
Heavenly Dou City, Blue Tyrant Academy
"Here's the thing, classmate. The person behind me is your dean's friend, one of the Golden Triangle, Flanders the Four-Eyed Cat Owl."
Today, our teachers and students are here to see Dean Liu Erlong.
Li Luochen looked at the gatekeeper at the entrance of the academy and said.
"Who knows if you are? Our dean is very busy, don't use this kind of excuse, okay? I know you guys too well? A bunch of noble gentlemen coveting our dean's power and beauty."
Look at the guy behind you, dressed so formally. It's obvious he's here to woo our dean. Get out of here, or I won't be so polite.
He clenched his fists at the door, as if he was about to kick people out if they didn't leave soon.
Li Luochen said: Oh, I didn't expect Liu Erlong to be so popular?
"Ahem, Dean, why don't you show this country bumpkin your spirit ring?"
Li Luochen looked at Flander and indeed Flander was dressed quite well today, looking every bit the part of a middle-aged nobleman.
After hearing this, Flander didn't say anything. Actually, he didn't know what to say. He was about to see Erlongmei again, and he wasn't sure if Erlongmei would treat him differently.
Flander stomped his left foot, and seven spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and three black—appeared beneath his feet. His Cat-Owl spirit appeared behind him.
The aura of a Soul Saint was released, startling the gatekeeper so much that he sat down on the ground.
"Did I forget to check the almanac today? Did I kick a hornet's nest? I actually insulted a Soul Saint? I'm doomed, Dean, save me!"
"Who dares to cause trouble at my academy?"
A loud shout rang out, the sound crisp and pleasant.
The newcomer was enveloped in flames; she was a woman in her thirties, dressed in a simple blue cloth dress. A wisp of blue hair was tied up with a cloth, revealing her delicate and captivating features, with exquisitely beautiful eyebrows and a pair of strikingly large black eyes. Beneath the cloth dress was a voluptuous and perfect figure that no ordinary young girl could match.
"Pretty boy! Don't think you can act so arrogantly here just because you brought a Soul Saint with you. Come at me if you dare!"
The woman's martial spirit manifested, with six spirit rings appearing: two yellow, two purple, and two black. A tall fire dragon appeared behind her.
The person who arrived was Liu Erlong. The reason she was able to arrive so quickly was because she was in a good mood today and specially came out to do some things that the dean should do, such as checking on the situation of the students in the academy.
Sensing the presence of a Soul Saint at the school gate, they quickly ran over.
Upon seeing that the leader was Li Luochen, she immediately started criticizing him. She saw seven spirit rings but not Flander's martial spirit. She glanced at him and saw a well-dressed middle-aged nobleman who was probably a pretty boy's guard, so she didn't look closely.
Liu Erlong despised these aristocratic pretty boys who wanted to fawn over her and get her body—they were dreaming!
"Um... Uncle Erlong, there's no need to say that. Dean Flander and I traveled all the way from Soto City to see you."
Although Li Luochen was handsome and had better skin, he was still scolded for being called a pretty boy. He was heartbroken. He had helped the dean with his marriage, so why was he being yelled at?
"Ahem, Erlongmei, it's been five years, and you're still in such a hurry."
Flander coughed lightly and stepped forward. "Hmm? Boss Flander, you're Boss Flander? What are you dressed like today? Oh, I'm sorry, it was my rudeness. This is the genius student you mentioned before, right? Come in and let's talk."
Looking at the drastically altered Flander, Liu Erlong felt that he was different from the Flander she remembered. The Flander she remembered had no sense of style and liked to keep a beard that didn't look good.
Today, Flander surprised Liu Erlong. He looked completely different. Although his face was the same, Flander now had a scholarly air about him.
Liu Erlong really liked this kind of thing, and suddenly thought that Boss Fu seemed pretty good too—handsome, powerful, and with a scholarly air about him. Thinking of this, Liu Erlong's pretty face flushed slightly.
"Huh? Doesn't this outfit look good on me? Xiaochen said I used to have bad taste in clothes, so she had this outfit custom-made for me, but it doesn't look very good."
Flander was actually a little nervous. Today was like going back to the time when he wanted to confess to Liu Erlong, and he was extremely nervous.
"Huh? No! Absolutely not! Boss, you look fantastic in that outfit, really! So good!"
Liu Erlong immediately realized that Flander's appearance today was a pleasant surprise, and her ears were already slightly red.
"Enough said, Brother Fu, it's rare for you to come see me. Come into the academy and come to my place, I'll go and entertain you."
Liu Erlong quickly changed the subject, leading Flander to her cabin, with Li Luochen following behind.
Flander glanced at Li Luochen, who, sensing the gaze, gave Flander a "V" sign.
Flander was too nervous to notice, but Li Luochen, as an observer, clearly saw that Liu Erlong's face turned red, and her ears were red too; they were still red to this day.
When Flander saw Li Luochen's gesture, he felt relieved, indicating that this look did appeal to Erlongmei.
Meanwhile, Liu Erlong's inner monologue was incredibly rich: Ahhhhh, how come I never noticed before that Boss Fu could dress like this? He's so captivating! That scholarly aura and gentle tone are so comforting.
How come I never noticed how handsome Boss Fu could be before? If only... Ugh, ugh, ugh, Liu Erlong, what are you thinking? You're Xiao Gang's 'wife,' how can you have feelings for your brother?
But whether I am Xiaogang's wife or not, my father would definitely disagree. Xiaogang and I are cousins, and he has never appeared since he ran away that time, not even writing a letter.
Does he care so much about his dignity? Is my dignity, Liu Erlong's dignity, so pathetic? But thinking about it, Boss Fu has helped me a lot, that time when we went on a rampage in the Soul Beast Forest.
I was about to be besieged by multiple ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts when Boss Fu came to my rescue. Over the years, Boss Fu has come to see me regularly to see if I will still go berserk.
Boss Fu is really a good person. Why didn't I choose him back then? When he confessed his feelings, I rejected him and chose to be with Xiao Gang instead. He didn't say anything and instead became our witness at our wedding.
On the day of my wedding, my father arrived with his men. Xiaogang was my cousin, and we couldn't be together, so my father took him away.
After that, Xiao Gang disappeared. Only Boss Fu came to see me and told me that Xiao Gang was fine and living in a small town.
But he never came to see me even once. We had at least gone through a wedding ceremony. Was he really that heartless to leave me to bear all the gossip? My subsequent furious massacre of the Soul Beast Forest was also because of the gossip.
After Boss Fu rescued me, comforted me, and suggested I start an academy for self-cultivation, was he really inferior to Xiao Gang? In what ways was Xiao Gang better? Did I, Liu Erlong, need such a cowardly man?
Liu Erlong's feelings were incredibly complicated.
