Chapter 557 The Shura Field in the Wooden House
The first light of dawn broke, and the thin mist had not yet dissipated.
Sunlight streamed down, only to be refracted by the mist in the forest and diffused everywhere, creating a hazy and colorful spectacle.
The transplanted bamboo has grown into a large bamboo forest, surrounding the secluded wooden house while isolating it from the tall trees in the forest. A gentle breeze blows, creating a soft rustling sound.
In the courtyard surrounded by a wooden fence, the flowerbeds planted with flowers and greenery are in full bloom, and clear dewdrops adorn the petals.
Liu Erlong quickly pushed open the courtyard gate and immediately saw Jiang Zhu, with chestnut-brown shoulder-length hair, running rapidly out of the still misty forest path. Her face was flushed with excitement, and upon seeing her at the gate, she called out sweetly from afar:
"Dean—"
However, at this moment, Liu Erlong's gaze was not on this disciple he valued most, but on several hazy figures shrouded in the morning mist following not far behind her.
Especially the handsome figure walking at the very front.
"Dean, Dean, Teacher Ye... he's back!"
Running like the wind to Liu Erlong, Jiangzhu finally caught her breath and told him the exciting news.
When he looked up, he found that the dean was ignoring him and was staring intently in the direction he had come from.
In the dean's view, the handsome and charming Teacher Ye, whom he admired, had already led a large group of stunning beauties out of the narrow path in the forest that led to the dean's secluded cabin, and was walking towards them step by step.
Then, to her surprise, she saw that the usually calm and composed dean suddenly showed extreme excitement on his face, and then he rushed out impatiently.
In front of everyone, she suddenly threw herself into Teacher Ye's arms, hugged him tightly, and wouldn't let go.
Upon witnessing this unbelievable scene, Jiangzhu froze on the spot as if struck by a spell, her eyes widening and her mouth agape in astonishment.
Jiangzhu wasn't the only one surprised by Liu Erlong's sudden action.
Also present were Ye Huiyin and her daughter Ye Lingling, who followed Liu Erlong out of the courtyard; Dugu Bo and his grandson Dugu Yan; and Qian Renxue, Yue Guan, and the seven beautiful girls from the Second Team who came with Ye Qifeng.
"Xiao Feng, you've finally come to see me!"
Holding Ye Qifeng tightly in her arms, feeling the familiar, peaceful aura emanating from him, Liu Erlong finally became certain that her beloved little brother, Xiaofeng, had truly come to see her.
After a long while, Liu Erlong slowly raised her head and gazed into Ye Qifeng's clear eyes, while her own eyes had already become misty with tears.
Liu Erlong thought she could face Ye Qifeng's return with composure, but the moment she saw his figure, her restless heart instantly became uncontrollable.
Overwhelmed by the immense joy, she broke through the last shred of her composure and, without waiting a moment longer, rushed out and threw herself into Ye Qifeng's arms, hugging him tightly.
She couldn't help but feel an urge to meld him into her own body, to become one with him, to blend them seamlessly.
Fortunately, the last shred of her reason stopped her from going further and doing anything more outrageous or inappropriate.
Feeling the sudden softness in his arms, Ye Qifeng was initially a little confused, but when he noticed that the person who had rushed into his arms was Liu Erlong, and saw the excited mist in her eyes, his heart softened instantly, and his gaze subconsciously became gentle.
"Yes, Sister Erlong, I'm back. I've come back to see you."
Ye Qifeng nodded gently, wiping away the tears welling up in her eyes as he spoke in a warm voice.
"Ahem, Sister Erlong, that's enough. Don't forget about me."
Just as Ye Qifeng and Liu Erlong were immersed in the joy of their reunion, a slightly reproachful, mature female voice suddenly came from the side.
Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong snapped out of her extreme surprise and realized that she was surrounded by a large group of people, all looking at her strangely. Her beautiful face instantly turned bright red.
She hurriedly broke free from Ye Qifeng's embrace, momentarily caught off guard and completely flustered, almost to the point of extreme panic.
"Haha, Xue'er, you're here too!"
After finally managing to compose herself, Liu Erlong looked at the blonde beauty standing to Ye Qifeng's left and gave an awkward smile.
The person who coughed to remind her was clearly her—her best friend Qian Renxue.
"I've been standing here the whole time, but you only see Xiaofeng and can't see me."
Qian Renxue said in a low voice, her words clearly carrying a lingering resentment. After she finished speaking, she subtly glared at Ye Qifeng beside her.
Ye Qifeng immediately touched his nose, not daring to speak. Fortunately, a voice rang out from the side at the right time, easing his embarrassment.
"Sister Erlong, not just Sister Xue'er, I'm here too."
Suddenly, Raven popped her head out from behind Ye Qifeng, her face beaming with uncontrollable joy, and waved enthusiastically at Liu Erlong.
"Oh, you're Little Raven? Wow, you've grown so much! Come on, let me give you a hug!"
Noticing a small head with a lotus-shaped hairstyle suddenly appearing behind Ye Qifeng, Liu Erlong immediately recognized who she was and ran over to hug her tightly, just like back then.
"Ugh, ugh, Sister Erlong, I can't breathe."
Raven's voice, which had seemed muffled, suddenly broke into a hesitant murmur.
Seeing this scene, Ye Qifeng looked puzzled, while Qian Renxue's eyes twitched violently. The other girls in the second team were equally shocked as they watched Ruiwen dancing and waving in Liu Erlong's arms, but no one went to help.
Only Yue Guan remained aloof, lost in thought, indifferent to the matter.
"Second Sister, you almost suffocated me!"
Finally managing to pull her head out of Liu Erlong's surging waves, Raven couldn't help but complain.
"Haha, sorry, I got a little too excited and forgot."
After this commotion, Liu Erlong's extremely agitated heart, which had just reunited with Ye Qifeng, finally calmed down, and she quickly returned to her usual straightforward personality.
However, when she looked at Ye Qifeng, her eyes would soften instantly, her beautiful eyes, as clear as autumn water, filled with an uncontrollable special affection. That's how she looked at Ye Qifeng at that moment.
"Xiao Feng, aren't you going to introduce these little sisters to your older sister? And this one too."
Liu Erlong, holding Ruiwen's little hand, walked back to Ye Qifeng's side together. Facing the group of people following behind him, her gaze first swept over the girls, and finally landed on Ju Douluo Yue Guan, but she was at a loss for words.
The other person clearly had the appearance of a woman, but had obvious male characteristics—an Adam's apple—making it impossible for her to discern Yue Guan's true gender or know how to address her.
As Liu Erlong was observing Yue Guan, Yue Guan, who was lost in thought, seemed to sense something and turned to look at Liu Erlong as well, inwardly marveling at her.
Ah, another beautiful woman. Hmm, her strength is also quite good. She's almost at the level 90 bottleneck and will officially step into the Title Douluo realm.
Judging by her age, she seems to be only in her early forties. Wow—that's quite a talent!
Speaking of which, how come His Highness has so many women with such extraordinary talent around him? Tsk tsk tsk, terrifyingly so, terrifyingly so!
Damn it, that old ghost didn't tell me anything! I'm going to settle the score with him when I get back.
The six girls from the second team, excluding Raven, were also staring at Liu Erlong.
However, their gazes were mostly fixed on Liu Erlong's impressive bosom. Feeling ashamed of themselves, they couldn't help but turn to look at Zhu Zhuqing, the only one among their many sisters who was qualified to rival her.
Noticing the gazes directed at her sisters, Zhu Zhuqing didn't shy away from it. Instead, she proudly puffed out her chest, making her already magnificent breasts appear even more towering.
In terms of looks, they are all equally matched, and no one can surpass the other, but when it comes to the hotness of their figures, Zhu Zhuqing is far ahead.
Now she no longer sees them as a heavy burden, but rather as something to be proud of, an advantage that her other sisters can only envy.
However, the fact that this "Second Sister" in front of her actually had such an impressive and voluptuous figure was somewhat beyond her expectations.
So when Liu Erlong's gaze swept over her, Zhu Zhuqing also puffed out her chest, determined not to show weakness.
"That is Elder of the Spirit Hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, a level 97 Super Douluo, and the partner of Ghost Douluo Gui Mei, whom you once met, sister."
Ye Qifeng seemed oblivious to the subtle emotional shifts between Liu Erlong and the girls in the second team. When she asked about Yue Guan, he gave her a brief introduction.
"Is he Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan? Or a Super Douluo with a soul power level of 97?"
Upon hearing Yue Guan's name and cultivation level, Liu Erlong was completely stunned.
"Elder Ju, this is my elder sister, Liu Erlong."
After introducing Yue Guan, Ye Qifeng then introduced Liu Erlong to Yue Guan.
"Ah, Miss Liu, hello."
Yue Guan smiled and was the first to greet them.
"Greetings, Your Majesty Chrysanthemum Douluo."
Liu Erlong snapped out of his shock and quickly bowed respectfully in return.
"No need to be so formal," Yue Guan glanced at Liu Erlong indifferently, then waved her hand and said, "You are His Highness the Holy Son's sister, there is no need for you to bow to me."
Ye Qifeng also said:
"Sister Erlong, don't be nervous. Elder Ju is a very easy-going person and doesn't like those formalities. Just treat her normally."
"Do you remember those nutrient solutions I gave you to cultivate your flowers and plants? They were personally prepared by Chrysanthemum Douluo."
Nutritional supplement? Hearing Ye Qifeng mention those familiar words, Yue Guan immediately became interested. Before Liu Erlong could speak, she directly asked her:
"Oh? You also enjoy growing flowers and plants? How good are you? What kind of plants do you grow? Common or rare ones?"
Liu Erlong nodded slightly, somewhat embarrassed.
"I do like it, but it's just a small hobby for my own amusement. It's not something that can be taken seriously, and my skill level isn't that great either."
"As for the flowers, plants, and greenery I grow, although they are not very common, they are not particularly rare either."
"If you're interested, you can go and take a look; it's in the flowerbed in the courtyard of the wooden house in front."
"I see." Yue Guan was slightly disappointed. She thought she had luckily met a talented person who shared the same love for flowers and plants, but it turned out to be just a half-baked amateur who was only entertaining himself. She couldn't help but feel a little sorry.
However, he was quite interested in the flowers, plants, and greenery that Liu Erlong had planted, so he asked Ye Qifeng for instructions:
"Your Highness, I am quite interested in the flowers and plants that Miss Liu has planted. I would like to go and take a look first."
Ye Qifeng nodded:
"Elder Ju, please make yourself at home."
Yue Guan immediately vanished from the spot in a flash. A moment later, a faint cry could be heard from the courtyard.
"Hey, you old poisoner, what are you doing here? And Little Yan Yan, Little Ling Ling, you're here too. And this lady... Little Ling Ling's mother, the matriarch of the Ye family of the Nine Heart Begonia? Ah, hello, hello."
After Yue Guan went to the courtyard first, Ye Qifeng guided Liu Erlong and the other girls present to get to know each other.
Apart from Raven, the other members of the second team immediately greeted Qian Renxue with a clear and sweet voice, "Hello, Sister Erlong," and then introduced themselves.
After getting to know each other, the group finally continued on their way, following Liu Erlong to her secluded wooden house.
Seeing Ye Huiyin, Ye Lingling, Dugu Bo, and Dugu Yan waiting in the courtyard of the wooden house, Ye Qifeng was surprised but also pleasantly surprised.
But some people don't feel so good about it.
Qian Renxue, in particular, almost overwhelmed with jealousy when she saw the two beautiful girls, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, eagerly crowding around Ye Qifeng.
Of course, Qian Renxue did not show any dissatisfaction in public regarding the presence of Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, but she secretly pinched Ye Qifeng's waist repeatedly, causing him great pain.
That's what a battlefield is like—painful, yet pleasurable.
After bringing Ye Qifeng and his group to the forest cabin, Jiangzhu originally intended to return to Lanba Academy to continue team training and practice with Tailong, Jingling, Huang Yuan, and other team members, but Ye Qifeng kept her there.
"Jiangzhu, I heard that you've been taking care of Sister Erlong all these years, is that right?"
After everyone entered the living room of the wooden house, Ye Qifeng looked at Jiangzhu with gentle eyes and asked a question with a smile.
Jiangzhu nodded, her face flushed, then shook her head:
"I don't need to take care of the dean's daily life. I just occasionally run errands for her and pass on some messages from the outside, such as delivering letters or something."
"I see." Ye Qifeng smiled. He realized that most of the letters inside were written by him, so Jiangzhu was essentially working for him. After a moment's thought, he touched the purple jade crystal ring on his left hand, took out a jade box, and handed it to Jiangzhu.
"Anyway, thank you."
