"I never did. My grandpas have always been on my mind." Ning Rongrong blinked her beautiful eyes and ran to the side of Sword Douluo, taking his hand with an obedient and charming demeanor.
"Xu Ran, I heard you've been on good terms with Qing He recently, even discussing peace talks between the two nations." Ning Fengzhi suddenly said. Xu Ran hailed from the Zhu Clan of the Xingluo Empire, where he held significant influence as well.
"Yes. So, I'm planning to leave in the next couple of days, otherwise the Crown Prince would be anxious. As for the matter of the hidden weapons, I will deliver them to Uncle after establishing the Xu Sect," Xu Ran replied.
"Xu Sect? You're establishing a sect?" Ning Fengzhi was surprised, but thinking of Xu Ran's current strength, he understood. With Xu Ran's talent and charisma, it would be a simple matter for the Xu Sect to enter the ranks of first-class sects.
"It seems the upper three families will have to reshuffle then. I'll be waiting eagerly for the good news from Xu Sect," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile. Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo also looked at Xu Ran in astonishment. With Xu Ran's current strength, it was indeed more than enough to establish a sect.
"I can take care of the whole process of setting up the sect for you. When the time comes, you just need to go to Qing He to get the land," Ning Fengzhi mused before saying.
"Then, I thank you, Uncle," Xu Ran said, bowing with his hands clasped.
After staying another two days at the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, Xu Ran and Ning Rongrong returned to Tiandou City. Ning Fengzhi had also prepared all the necessary documents and sect seals properly, handing them over to Xu Ran.
...
Shrek Academy.
Senior Class.
Xu Ran and Ning Rongrong walked in hand-in-hand, immediately attracting the gaze of many as they stood by the door. Ning Rongrong was quite popular at Shrek Academy, being from the prestigious Ning Family; she naturally garnered much affection.
Although Xu Ran had never shown up in the class before, there were quite a few who recognized him.
Seeing Xu Ran had arrived, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiaowu greeted him, their pretty faces unable to hide their joy. Even though Xu Ran had only been away for a few days, they were already missing him terribly.
"Shh." Seeing Xu Ran familiar with three of the class beauties and holding hands with Ning Rongrong, a chorus of whispers arose. Where had this formidable guy come from?
"Husband?" Liu Erlong stared at Xu Ran with a mix of surprise and whispered the word. However, no one noticed her unusual behavior.
At that moment, it was Liu Erlong who was giving the lecture, dressed in a form-fitting white blouse and a knee-length pencil skirt, her perfect curves on full display. The blouse highlighted her ample chest and the round, full buttocks behind her seemed to exude a fragrance from afar.
It appeared as though the professional skirt was tailor-made for Liu Erlong, showcasing the curves of her back and her snow-white, straight legs that were to die for, especially as she stood at the lectern.
Why didn't I have a teacher like this when I was in school? If I had, I would have certainly tried harder... Xu Ran thought of those declarations made by underachievers in his previous life. What a pity, if they had such a teacher, they would probably end up as boneless creatures before even entering society.
"Teacher Liu Erlong, I am that Xu Ran. I haven't come to register before, but you should have my name," said Xu Ran, teasingly looking at Liu Erlong.
"Ah?" Liu Erlong gazed at Xu Ran, well aware there was a student named Xu Ran in the senior class who had never attended. She thought it was a case of mistaken identity. With everything that had been going on, including Yu Xiaogang's visit and Xu Ran's influence, she had not paid attention to such matters nor had she inquired. But now, she realized Xu Ran was...
"What's wrong, Teacher Liu? Did my handsomeness strike you?" Xu Ran teased. At that moment, Liu Erlong leaned on the lectern, her sultry pose overwhelmingly inviting.
"Xu Ran, stop talking nonsense. Dean Liu is a very good person," Ning Rongrong said as she tugged on Xu Ran's arm, seeing him treating Liu Erlong with such irreverence.
The other students were also staring blankly at Xu Ran.
"Holy shit, where did this fearless guy come from?"
"He must not know about Vice-Chancellor Liu Erlong's temperament."
"Teacher Liu Erlong is beautiful, indeed, but I only dare to sneak a few glances. I never expected this brother to tease her like that. He's dead meat. With Teacher Liu's explosive temper, Xu Ran is definitely going to be bedridden for quite a few days."
"However, Xu Ran seems to be quite powerful. Maybe Teacher Liu Erlong can't really do anything to him, right?"
All of a sudden, the students in the senior class started chatting one after another, and their looks toward Xu Ran turned sympathetic. Poor kid, just arrived at the academy and already about to face Liu Erlong's wrath.
Liu Erlong is so beautiful, but not many dare to provoke her because her temper is also dreadful. She's like a Mother Tyrannosaurus. If she explodes, Xu Ran would, at least…
At that moment, these innocent students didn't yet realize that their beloved beautiful teacher already had a very intimate relationship with Xu Ran. Even if she were to burst out in anger, it would be, heh heh heh… indescribable.
By then, if he and Liu Erlong were to fight, the one at a disadvantage wouldn't be him.
When Liu Erlong saw Xu Ran and looked into his bare, naked eyes, her legs went weak.
Ever since she had confirmed her relationship with Xu Ran, she had tasted the marrow and couldn't hold herself back in his presence any longer.
Daring in love and bold in hatred, the former Liu Erlong was just like that. The current Liu Erlong was clearly beginning to awaken her original personality and temperament.
Hearing the whispers around her, her face couldn't help but blush, even as she desperately tried to restrain herself and avoid exposing anything. But she still couldn't help but turn red-faced, alluring, with a strand of hair sticking to her cheek.
However, in the eyes of those naive students, this was a sign that Liu Erlong was about to get angry. A flush face, for them, was a sign of surging anger.
"It's over, it's over. Teacher Liu Erlong is really angry, her face is all red."
"I've never seen Teacher Liu this angry before. Teacher Liu has always been that way, beautiful and generous in giving, with an extremely kind personality. But she's like a spinster, hating those who lust."
"Teacher Liu Erlong is trembling with anger. Xu Ran is going to have a hard time in a bit."
"But he deserves it, doesn't he? He was so brazen as to charm away Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiaowu. It's about time Teacher Liu gave him a good lesson."
Seeing Liu Erlong's cheeks flushed and her legs trembling, her body shaking, a group of people suddenly said. They were somewhat looking forward to Xu Ran getting a lesson. After all, Xu Ran was too much, rubbing Rongrong's slender waist right in front of them, making them green with envy.
Dammit, they wanted to rub too, if only…
"Xu Ran, come out for a moment. I have something to say to you," Liu Erlong said, no longer able to bear it. If she stayed in the classroom any longer, she worried she wouldn't be able to handle it and then she'd expose herself.
Having fallen in love, she was finding it hard to even face Xu Ran's gaze. Just a few days' time, and she was missing Xu Ran terribly.
