Dugu Bo was startled. Despite gaining such a significant benefit, his granddaughter had accused him of wasting a precious treasure. His hands trembled, causing the teacup to slip and spill its contents.
With a shaky voice, he asked, "What changes did you experience after consuming it?"
Dugu Yan glanced at Yun Feng, who nodded helplessly. Only then did Dugu Yan slowly recount all the changes that had occurred.
The more Dugu Bo listened, the more distressed he became. It was as if his entire worldview had been shattered. Deeply shaken, he tugged at the corner of his mouth, unsure of what to say. The sight of his earlier behavior being witnessed by the two of them made him feel utterly embarrassed.
However, the awkward atmosphere didn't last long. Xiao Wu and the others returned from the cave at the mountain peak, bringing back the hunted Soul Beasts. Yun Feng and Dugu Yan also got up and headed over.
Just as Dugu Bo thought the tension would finally dissipate, Xiao Wu and the others slowly asked, "Brother, Yan Zi, how was the effect of the Immortal Herb on your grandfather?"
Yun Feng remained silent, but Dugu Yan, without any hesitation, completely exposed her grandfather's secrets.
Dugu Bo could no longer maintain his composure. His face nearly fell to the ground. He quickly stood up and said to Yun Feng and the others, "Since everything's fine now, I'll head to the Heaven Dou Empire. I think I have some business to attend to!"
Before Yun Feng and the others could react, Dugu Bo swiftly left the valley like a gust of wind, leaving everyone staring at each other in bewilderment.
Xiao Wu and the others couldn't hold back their laughter anymore. "Hahaha!"
Even Yun Feng and Dugu Yan joined in the laughter.
Meanwhile, Dugu Bo, who had just exited the valley, wished he had two more legs as he hurried away from this embarrassing place without stopping.
After laughing for a while, the group began processing the ingredients that Xiao Wu and the others had hunted. Yun Feng, as expected, once again took charge of cooking.
After everyone had eaten their fill, Xiao Wu rested her chin on her hands and asked softly, "Brother, are we going back next?"
Yun Feng's eyes flickered uncertainly at her words, but he eventually nodded and said, "Yes, we still need to return."
Xiao Wu didn't think much of it after receiving his answer. She no longer had any reservations, as the Immortal Herb had completely masked her aura. Naturally, she wanted to explore the broader human world. Knowing Yun Feng's intentions, she was overjoyed. Without even wiping the grease from her mouth, she pounced on Yun Feng and planted a big kiss on his cheek.
"Brother, I love you so much!"
Yun Feng, however, feigned disgust and gently pushed her away. "Ew, you're so dirty! Get down!"
Xiao Wu stubbornly clung to him, refusing to let go. After a playful struggle, Yun Feng's helplessness was evident.
He took a tissue handed to him by Zhu Zhuqing, wiped his face, and then wiped Xiao Wu's mouth a few times with more force.
Feeling the strength of his movements, Xiao Wu blinked her big pink eyes, and a pair of rabbit ears suddenly popped out. She cooed, "Brother, why are you so rough? Am I not cute enough?"
As a Beast Tamer, how could Yun Feng resist the charm of a beast-eared girl? Instantly, the dinner scene turned into a concert.
Cat-eared girl joined the battle!
Snake girl joined the battle!
The little witch didn't meet the qualifications to participate and was forced to serve the others.
The night passed, and the morning light arrived.
The first rays of sunlight fell on Yun Feng's face as he looked at the others still sound asleep. He smiled and got out of bed.
As soon as he stepped outside, he saw Dugu Yan preparing breakfast in the courtyard.
Yun Feng watched her back, feeling an inexplicable warmth. He walked up behind her, wrapped his arms around her voluptuous figure, and whispered in her ear, "Why are you up so early?"
Dugu Yan's body trembled slightly but quickly relaxed. She replied softly, "I woke up early and thought I'd make breakfast for everyone."
Hearing this, Yun Feng didn't say much. He simply let go of her, rolled up his sleeves, and helped Dugu Yan prepare breakfast.
By the time the other girls woke up, Yun Feng and Dugu Yan had finished preparing the meal.
After eating, Ning Rongrong brought up a crucial question. "Are we going back to school after this?"
"Yes, we'll head back after breakfast," Yun Feng replied.
At Blue Tyrant Academy, Yun Feng spent most of his time in the library. During this period, a few interesting incidents occurred.
Some clueless individuals had taken a liking to Yun Feng's girlfriends. Before Yun Feng could even intervene, Xiao Wu and the others had already beaten them up.
When Yun Feng heard about this, he almost couldn't help but give them a thumbs up.
They dared to hit on Xiao Wu and the others? They must have a death wish!
Luckily, Xiao Wu didn't have any such intentions. Otherwise, they wouldn't even know where they died.
A few days later, Yun Feng finished reading all the knowledge he wanted to learn. He stepped out of the library, watching the leaves sway in the wind as sunlight peeked through the gaps, casting dappled shadows on the ground.
It was incredibly soothing.
At that moment, Zhu Zhuqing and the others arrived, carrying meals. They cheerfully asked, "Brother, you're done reading so early today?"
Yun Feng smiled faintly, taking the lunchbox handed to him by the little kitten. He opened it, and the aroma wafted out. After taking a big bite, he said, "I finished reading what I needed, so I came out."
The girls chuckled as they watched Yun Feng speak while eating, his words slightly muffled.
Dugu Yan quietly sat beside Yun Feng, occasionally feeding him a sip of water or using a handkerchief to wipe the grains of rice from the corners of his mouth.
The wind gently played with their hair, creating a serene and beautiful scene.
However, this tranquility didn't last long before it was shattered by a loud voice.
"Who bullied my son? Step forward!"
A burly man was roaring in an open area not far from Yun Feng. Passing students quickly steered clear of him.
Yun Feng frowned, clearly displeased.
His son had been beaten, and now the father was making a scene in the academy? What was the point?
Yun Feng scanned the burly man and the boy beside him with his spiritual power. Apart from a black eye, the boy had no other injuries.
Was this really necessary?
Xiao Wu and the others, noticing Yun Feng's frown, followed his gaze and looked over. They felt a strange sense of familiarity.
Unable to recall, Xiao Wu turned to Ning Rongrong and asked, "Sisters, doesn't that guy over there look familiar?"
Ning Rongrong calmly replied, "That's the one you beat up a few days ago."
Xiao Wu smacked her forehead, finally remembering. She exclaimed, "Isn't that the guy I slammed to the ground the other day? If it weren't for the fact that he's a classmate, I might've used the Eight Stage Slam! Why's he bringing his dad into this now? What was his name again?"
