Chapter 272 Watering in the Void: Liu Erlong
As evening approached, there were fewer pedestrians on the streets, allowing the carriage to travel at a faster pace.
The coachman was extremely skilled, and it only took him about 15 minutes to drive the carriage to the southern part of Tiandou City.
When they were two streets away from the Crown Prince's residence, Ye Qifeng secretly instructed Gui Mei to use his soul power to summon the Serpent Spear Douluo She Long.
Not long after.
Ye Qifeng quickly sensed She Long's soul power aura.
The carriage stopped beside the wide street paved with blue bricks.
He looked at Qian Renxue and whispered:
"Xue'er, your people are here. Shall we get off the bus?"
"Um."
Qian Renxue glanced in a certain direction and responded.
Clearly, she sensed She Long's arrival.
She immediately tried to get up, but the weight on her body slowed her down.
I almost forgot, Raven is still lying in her arms right now.
Qian Renxue gently picked up Raven and was about to hand her over to Ye Qifeng when she suddenly remembered something. She paused, her beautiful blue eyes fixed on Ye Qifeng, her gaze suddenly hesitant.
Seeing the concern in Qian Renxue's eyes, Ye Qifeng was taken aback at first, then understood what she was worried about. He chuckled softly and explained in a low voice:
"Don't worry, Raven is still a child. My aura doesn't have such a deep impact on children. At most, it will only make her feel a little close to me, but she won't have any ulterior motives."
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue didn't speak, but a slight smile of satisfaction appeared on her lips as she handed Raven to Ye Qifeng to hold.
The two then got off the carriage together.
Instructing the driver to wait where he was, Ye Qifeng carried Ruiwen and took Qian Renxue to a dark alley not far away.
When Ye Qifeng and Qianrenxue entered the alley.
In the shadows.
Suddenly, a figure emerged, over two meters tall, slender, and as straight and sharp as a javelin.
The figure was an old man, at least seventy years old, with a golden snake pattern adorning his brow.
It was She Long, the Serpent Spear Douluo, who had been waiting there.
"Young Master! His Highness the Holy Son!"
Stepping up to Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue, She Long bowed slightly to them with his hand on his chest.
In response to She Long's bow, Qian Renxue simply nodded and gave a soft "hmm".
Perhaps because she was reluctant to part with Ye Qifeng for the time being, her emotions were somewhat complicated, and she did not want to say much.
"Elder She Long, there's no need for such formalities."
Ye Qifeng nodded in return, then smiled and asked:
"Next, I'll need your help to escort Xue'er safely back to the Crown Prince's residence."
"Your Highness, rest assured!"
She Long replied succinctly.
He then glanced at the little girl in the Holy Son's arms.
He discovered that the little girl did not seem to be a Soul Master, and was currently in a state of deep sleep, posing no threat whatsoever.
She Long's slightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed, and his vigilance lessened somewhat.
No wonder he was so cautious.
As the bodyguard of Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall, in addition to protecting the young master's safety, he also had to ensure that the young master's identity was not exposed.
After all, the young master Qian Renxue's identity is extremely important, and naturally, the fewer people who have seen her true appearance, the better.
Even if she's just a child, you still need to be wary.
Otherwise, if people discover that the young master's true identity is related to the Heavenly Dou Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, their plan to seize the country may very well be ruined.
Although he confirmed that the little girl posed no threat, out of caution, She Long still asked another question:
Who is this little girl?
"Her name is Raven. She's a genius that Xiao Feng and I discovered in the slums of West City."
Upon hearing She Long's question, Qian Renxue began to explain.
"genius?"
She Long asked in surprise.
"Yes." Qian Renxue nodded slightly and explained with a smile:
"Raven has extremely strong talent; her innate soul power is at level 10, the maximum level."
Back when she was treating Raven's wounds in the slums, she had already confirmed that Raven was indeed a genius with innate full soul power.
"First, innate full soul power?"
She Long's eyes widened in surprise.
"That's right."
Qian Renxue said with certainty.
He then briefly recounted Raven's situation to She Long.
After listening to Qian Renxue's story and looking at the sleeping little girl in front of him, She Long's eyes immediately changed.
My God!
This person possesses innate full soul power!
She Long understood very well what it meant to have innate full soul power.
That's the appearance of a Super Douluo.
With enough effort, becoming a Title Douluo is practically a given, and reaching the ranks of Super Douluo is within reach. There's even a chance to break through to the Limit Douluo realm like Grand Elder Qian Daoliu.
With such powerful talent, if he grows up smoothly, he will surely become a top pillar of the Spirit Hall in the future.
Although they still can't compare to the young master and the holy prince beside them, they are still incredibly enviable.
Yes.
She Long said he was envious.
On another note, how come the young master brought back a genius with innate full soul power after only one day of going out with His Highness the Holy Son?
This was something She Long never expected.
She Long, who had initially been critical of the young master's unauthorized search for the Holy Son, surprisingly found himself thinking for the first time that the young master had done the right thing.
After all, geniuses with innate full soul power are rare in the Douluo Continent. Not to mention one in ten thousand, they might not appear even once every thousand or a hundred years.
If the young master could bring back a genius with full innate soul power every time he went out with His Highness the Holy Son, he would be more eager for the young master to go to His Highness the Holy Son's place a few more times.
She Long couldn't help but think to himself.
Qian Renxue had no idea what She Long was thinking at the moment. She had already anticipated the shocked expression on his face, so she didn't care.
She turned around, first glancing at Ruiwen, who was fast asleep in Ye Qifeng's arms, and then her gaze fell on Ye Qifeng's handsome and gentle face.
She gently twirled a strand of golden hair that fell beside her cheek with her jade-like fingers, then lightly brushed it behind her ear, and whispered:
"Xiao Feng, I'm going back now."
"it is good."
Ye Qifeng nodded and simply said, "Be careful."
"Don't worry, the Crown Prince's residence isn't far from here, there's no danger at all."
Qian Renxue waved her hand dismissively.
Although she said that, the corners of her lips curled up, revealing her happiness. Even though she knew it was just a polite expression of concern, it still warmed her heart.
After a two-second pause, Qian Renxue changed the subject and suddenly said:
"Today is truly a meaningful day."
Ye Qifeng paused for a moment, then said somewhat embarrassedly:
"Sorry, it's rare that you have time, but I made you spend the whole day wandering around that chaotic slum in the West City with me."
No, that's not it.
Qian Renxue shook her head, interrupting Ye Qifeng, and said softly:
"Actually, I'm very grateful to Xiaofeng for taking me to visit the slums of Xicheng, which allowed me to see what life is like for the poorest people at the bottom of society."
"Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have known that there are people in this world living such miserable and difficult lives."
"Even the capital city of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City, has such poor and chaotic slums. I can't even imagine what other cities would be like."
"This further strengthened my belief in carrying out the plan to steal the country."
"A plot to steal the country?"
Ye Qifeng looked at Qian Renxue with slight surprise, thinking that it seemed that the trip to the slums had touched Xiaoxue'er quite a bit, making her feel more compassion for the poor. So she wanted to try to change this situation through the plan to steal the country.
This should be considered a good thing, right?
At least she wasn't the aloof, ignorant princess of the common people, as she was originally destined to be.
"and"
At this moment, Qian Renxue pointed at Raven, smiled and said, "We didn't come away empty-handed in the slums, we still have Raven, a genius with innate full soul power."
"That's true."
Looking at Raven in his arms, Ye Qifeng nodded.
The two looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
"Xiao Feng, I'm leaving."
A short while later, Qian Renxue said goodbye. "See you next time."
"Okay, see you next time."
Qian Renxue is gone.
Escorted by She Long, she returned to her Crown Prince's residence and continued to impersonate Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of Tiandou.
Ye Qifeng was left standing alone in the alley, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a little melancholy.
Watching Qian Renxue and She Long disappear around the corner of the alley, Ye Qifeng stood there blankly for a while.
A moment later, he lowered his eyes, glanced at Raven who was fast asleep in his arms, smiled slightly, and thought to himself, "I forgot about you."
Turning around, I stepped out of the alley and back onto the wide street. Looking up at the sky, I saw that the east was already pitch black, and night was falling, enveloping the west.
I need to hurry back.
Speaking of which, Sister Erlong went to the Begonia Clinic to visit her best friend Ye Huiyin. I wonder if she will come home today?
Or have you already returned home?
Is he foolishly waiting for me to come home for dinner again?
Thinking of this, Ye Qifeng quickly quickened his pace, returned to the carriage, and instructed the driver to head towards the west of the city.
The horse-drawn carriage wound its way through the streets and alleys on the blue brick-paved roads, the horses' hooves striking the ground with a rhythmic clattering sound, like a melodious tune.
Just then.
Suddenly, a soft moan was heard in the carriage.
Raven slowly opened her eyes.
Through my blurry vision, a handsome face came into view.
Raven quickly realized it was Ye Qifeng's cheek, and immediately called out in a clear voice:
"Brother Ye?"
"Awake?"
Ye Qifeng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, immediately opened them and looked around, his gaze landing on Ruiwen in his arms. "Get up if you're awake."
"Huh? Oh, oh, oh."
Gazing up at that handsome face, Raven was stunned for a while before realizing that she was lying in Ye-gege's arms.
She quickly flailed her arms a few times, stood up abruptly, and nervously sat down to the side.
Raven doesn't remember when she fell asleep.
As I recall, after getting into the carriage, I was sitting with Sister Xue'er. Soon I became sleepy and drifted off to sleep, snuggling into something soft, like Sister Xue'er's arms.
How did you end up at Brother Ye's place?
strange!
But lying in Brother Ye's arms is so comfortable, it feels so warm and familiar.
It's just that Brother Ye's body is a bit hard, and it feels a bit uncomfortable when I lie on it to sleep.
Sister Xue'er, on the other hand, is soft and smells wonderful.
Although they are both comfortable, if she had to choose, she would prefer something softer and more fragrant.
I hope Brother Ye won't mind.
Hey, where's Sister Xue'er?
Raven suddenly let out a soft exclamation, only then realizing that one person was missing from the carriage.
She hurriedly turned her head left and right, searching for Qian Renxue's figure in the carriage, but finding nothing, she immediately asked Ye Qifeng:
"Brother Ye, where did Sister Xue'er go?"
"She went home."
Upon hearing the question, Ye Qifeng replied.
"Going home? When? How come I didn't know?"
Raven was immediately stunned.
"While you were asleep."
Ye Qifeng replied, "It's getting late now, and your sister Xue'er needs to go home."
"Oh"
Upon hearing this, Raven lowered her head, her voice slightly lowered. After a moment, she suddenly raised her face, asking in surprise:
"Huh? Don't Sister Xue'er and Brother Ye live together?"
Seeing Raven's head hanging low, Ye Qifeng thought she would be disappointed and depressed.
I was just about to comfort her.
Caught off guard by her ambiguous remark, Ye Qifeng coughed twice and hurriedly explained:
"Ahem, your sister Xue'er doesn't live with me."
"Will we ever meet again?"
Raven nervously twisted her little fingers together.
"Of course."
Seeing Raven's adorable, nervous expression, Ye Qifeng smiled and said confidently, "She'll come to see you when she has time."
Then the topic changed, and Ye Qifeng whispered a few words to her:
"For the next period of time, you will follow me to learn some martial spirit theory, cultivation knowledge, and combat techniques and skills."
"So you can't be lazy, you have to work hard."
"Yes, I will."
When the topic of martial spirits and cultivation came up, Raven's eyes lit up, and she immediately woke up, clenching her little fists in determination, as if she were full of energy.
At home in Xicheng.
In the courtyard, a beautiful, even stunning, woman was watering the plants and flowers with a watering can.
Actually, it had rained just two days ago, so the green plants and flowers in the courtyard didn't lack water.
However, Qianying wasn't actually watering the plants.
If you look closely, you can easily see that not a single drop of water is spilling from the spout, because...
The watering can was completely empty.
The reason he was watering the plants with a watering can was not only to keep himself occupied, but also to put on a show.
The beautiful woman held a watering can in her delicate hands, swaying it casually up, down, left, and right.
But it was clear that she was somewhat distracted.
Because her gaze kept glancing towards the door from time to time, as if she was waiting for her beloved to return.
Yes.
Her real purpose was to wait for someone.
This beautiful figure, without a doubt, is Liu Erlong.
She came back very early.
Today I spent most of the day at Haitang Medical Clinic meeting with my best friend Ye Huiyin, and we talked about many private things.
During the conversation, the topic inevitably came up again with her and Ye Qifeng, and Ye Huiyin teased her relentlessly, making her blush to the roots of her ears.
Ye Huiyin seemed determined not to let her off the hook, constantly fanning the flames from the side, making her feel extremely uneasy and confused.
Then I couldn't help but start overthinking.
For some reason, I suddenly thought of Xue'er, the little sister who came to visit my house this morning, and I felt a little uneasy.
Finally, in the afternoon, Liu Erlong left the Begonia Clinic amidst Ye Huiyin's teasing gaze and rushed home.
But unlike the previous two days, I didn't see Ye Qifeng's figure immediately, and I felt quite disappointed.
It was getting dark.
Ye Qifeng had not yet returned, and Liu Erlong could not help but feel a little worried.
I walked around the courtyard again and again, but that wasn't going to work. I couldn't just wait around; I had to find something to do.
So he started doing what he loved to do most in his spare time.
Watering the flowers.
then
He was watering the virtual ground while waiting for someone.
