After some struggling.
Ye Xuan finally got rid of those people. It probably took him more than ten minutes to do that.
What could he do? This clone of his was too weak to stop others from doing things he did not want. They could do whatever they wanted to him.
If Lin Shiru had not given him a hand in the end, he did not know for how much more time he would be trapped there.
Those people were too enthusiastic.
Ye Xuan wiped his face.
He saw his hand instantly stained with lipsticks.
Darn it!
Ye Xuan was pissed off.
“Ye Xuan.”
Qi Liangcai called out his Three-Legged Bluefire Crow. He would take Ye Xuan back to his villa on it. On their way, he asked in a bitchy tone, “Well, tell me, Ye Xuan. How have you been cultivating? Are there any tips you can share with me?”
The Three-Legged Bluefire Crow he had called out was apparently much larger than earlier when he had called it out in his room.
Its wingspan reached more than thirty feet long.
At the same time, the blue fire burning on it was much weaker, so Ye Xuan and others would not be harmed.
“Tips?”
Ye Xuan darted Qi Liangcai a glance. “Yeah, I do have a tip. If you can contract with two beasts every time you level up, you will be improving as fast as I am.”
“Darn it!”
Qi Liangcai cursed to himself.
People who contracted with two beasts while they were on the Apprentice level do exist.
However, except for you.
Who else can get two Seeds of Beasts every time they level up?
Besides, among the Beast Tamers who could contract with two beasts when they were on the Apprentice level, the chance of contracting with two beasts on each level was no more than one-third.
At the same time, how many talented Beast Tamers like this in all were there on the Cerulean Planet?
“By the way.”
Something seemed to occur to Ye Xuan at the moment. Looking at Qi Liangcai, he said, “Bro, what happened a week ago, did you…”
Pah!
Qi Liangcai gave Ye Xuan a heavy punch on the shoulder. “To be honest, I was quite frustrated when I had just woken up. But on second thought, I realized it was no big deal.”
“I would be able to defeat Ye Tiange, too, if I had been able to fight.”
“But after all, my Three-Legged Hellfire Crow was injured. Even if I had forced myself to fight against Ye Tiange, I wouldn’t be able to kill him. So, what is the point?”
“However, you killed Ye Tiange in the presence of Ye Yuanming. You kind of vented my anger, bro.”
Qi Liangcai said to Ye Xuan in a grateful tone.
Next to them, Wei Shan and Lv Jing shifted their gazes from Qi Liangcai while speaking.
This dude was too silver-tongued.
They felt like they would throw up.
“Ye Xuan, I will take you back home first. I guess your parents must have heard about your trip to Wanshan University. It would help if you talked to them when you go back. And, shall we get together to have dinner later?”
Qi Liangcai said to Ye Xuan, looking at him.
“Sure.”
Ye Xuan agreed.
He suddenly recalled he had never had dinner with Qi Liangcai, although they got along well.
However, Ye Xuan was a little worried when he had accepted Qi Liangcai’s invitation.
He wondered whether his clone was able to eat.
If he could eat, how would he deal with what he had eaten when the dinner was over?
“Mom, Dad.”
Qi Liangcai and others went back when they had taken Ye Xuan back to his villa.
Ye Xuan opened the door and walked in. He saw Ye Guotao and Su Yunmeng in the living room right away.
He instantly smiled at them and walked over. Then he sat down behind Su Yunmeng to give her a back massage.
“Stay there quietly. How great you are now. You can do whatever you want. I will never be able to stop you anyway. But remember, don’t be so high-profile again in the future.”
Su Yunmeng glimpsed at him.
“Mom, I know.”
Ye Xuan replied immediately.
“You know?” Su Yunmeng raised her voice. “So why did you go to challenge Wanshan University at their gate? Why can’t you learn to be discreet? How can we not worry about you?”
That was Wanshan University.
It was a university well known in entire Jiangzhou.
If Ye Xuan had not been qualified for Beast Tamer and had not come to Jiangzhou University.
With Ye Xuan’s Warrior level back then, she would be on top of the world if he could be admitted to one of the faculties of Wanshan University.
However, this time, Ye Xuan went to challenge Wanshan University at their gate.
That was too absurd.
She could not even imagine how many people from Wanshan University hated Ye Xuan to the core.
On the other side, although she was just an average person, she knew the current situation on the Cerulean Planet.
She knew a genius like Ye Xuan could be easily targeted by foreign clans that had slipped onto the Cerulean Planet.
“Mom, it is only because I had to do it.”
Ye Xuan let out a sigh. He said while massaging Su Yunmeng on the back, “But don’t worry about me. Things will be better very soon. It won’t take too long.”
Lin Shiru suggested he set a goal for himself. She wanted him to achieve the Platinum level in two months.
He doubted whether he could achieve that. He really did not think he was that talented.
However, by then.
Seeing Su Yunmeng and Ye Guotao so worried about him, he made up his mind.
He must become a Platinum-level Beast Tamer in two months.
And he would keep this cultivation pace even after these two months.
He would like to become a Challenger-level Beast Tamer as soon as possible.
He would be able to protect himself only when he had achieved the Challenger level.
“Alas!”
Su Yunmeng did not say anything more.
Ye Xuan had never been a rebellious son, but he always had a mind of his own.
…
“You will stay with me in the next two days.”
Lin Shiru took Ye Xuan to her villa when they had returned to Jiangzhou University.
This villa was a little smaller than where Ye Xuan was living.
Many creepers were growing on the outer wall of the villa.
Therefore, the villa looked beautiful and unique.
“Ms. Lin, is this where you live?”
Ye Xuan was very curious. He had never come to Lin Shiru’s place before. This was the first time.
“Yep.”
Lin Shiru nodded.
Then she put the Seed of the Void with Ye Xuan inside on the palm of her left hand. She opened the door of the villa and walked in.
Lin Shiru closed the door and bent over to take off her shoes and change into slippers. Ye Xuan glanced at Lin Shiru while she was doing all this. Then he looked around in the room out of curiosity.
Spacious. Luminous. Graceful… One after another adjective flashed across Ye Xuan’s mind.
“Wait for me here. I will go upstairs to get prepared. You can leave the Seed of the Void when I come back. As long as you stay here with me and don’t go out these days, you don’t have to always stay in the Seed of the Void.”
Lin Shiru walked into the living room. Then she left the Void Seed with Ye Xuan inside on the tea table in the living room.
Then she told him.
“Get prepared? Get prepared for what?”
Ye Xuan was astonished.
However, Lin Shiru did not reply to him.
She walked upstairs when she had left the Seed of the Void with Ye Xuan inside on the tea table.
Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to display the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map in his head right away.
He wanted to see what Lin Shiru was doing.
He found not only could he see the outside world from the Seed of the Void.
But also, the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map could function normally.
“Well…”
One minute later, Ye Xuan saw Lin Shiru go into a room after having gone upstairs. That room was probably her bedroom. She opened a wardrobe and took some clothes out of it.
By then, Ye Xuan had realized what Lin Shiru was going to do.
However, even though he was tempted, could he really go on watching her like this?
Absolutely not!
No matter who asked him, his answer was absolute no. He did not go on watching.
…
Half an hour later, Ye Xuan heard Lin Shiru coming downstairs.
Then he shifted his gaze from a photo hanging on the wall of the living room. It was a photo of Lin Shiru when she was still a lovely little girl.
He looked up.
Then he instantly saw the white slippers Lin Shiru was wearing. Above the slippers, it was a long light blue dress just above the ankles. In an indescribable elegant manner, she walked down.
She was stunning.
That was the only word that came into Ye Xuan’s head.
Seeing Lin Shiru wearing such a dress, together with her wet hair and her stunning look, Ye Xuan could not take his eyes off her.
At the same time, he found watching people through the Real-Time Map and watching people face to face were very different.
“Ye Xuan, you can come out now.”
Lin Shiru extended her hand after coming downstairs and walked up to the Seed of the Void where Ye Xuan was in.
She took it to the door.
Ye Xuan was not sure what she did then, but the Seed of the Void in her hand gave off many verdant lights in an instant. And her villa was shrouded in those lights.
Whoosh!
Then she shifted her consciousness to take Ye Xuan out of the Seed of the Void.
“It is over already?”
Ye Xuan walked out of the Seed of the Void. He was dumbfounded that Lin Shiru released him from the Seed of the Void so effortlessly.
If it was so easy, why didn’t you let me out earlier?
After all, you only took a shower and got changed. Not that you did anything important.
I am a decent man. If you had told me what you were going to do, I would stay downstairs waiting for you. I absolutely would not sneak upstairs to watch you shower. Did you have to keep me in there for more than half an hour?
Ye Xuan was quite frustrated.
How could you not trust me?
“Change into slippers first.”
Lin Shiru seemed to know what Ye Xuan was thinking.
She tried hard to hold back a smile. Then she found a pair of slippers for Ye Xuan in the shoe cabinet.
While Ye Xuan was changing, she went to the bedroom downstairs to clean. Then she took out a new mattress and a quilt.
Ye Xuan walked over in slippers. Seeing Lin Shiru busy cleaning the room, he hurried to help.
“You will stay in this room these days. And I will be upstairs. If you need anything, feel free to tell me.”
Lin Shiru said to Ye Xuan while making the bed.
“Okay.”
Ye Xuan nodded.
“And, if you feel bored, you can stay in the living room and play games on your cell phone. I will be cooking in the kitchen. Dinner will be ready very soon.”
She walked to the kitchen when she had finished making the bed for Ye Xuan.
“Wow, Ms. Lin, I didn’t know you cook.”
Ye Xuan hurried to follow her. He was stunned.
“I am a Beast Tamer, so my beasts’ reverse nurturing will be enough for me. I don’t need to cultivate as Warriors do. Since I had a lot of free time, I learned to cook.”
Lin Shiru said with a smile. Seeing Ye Xuan so surprised, she seemed to feel complacent.
Then she turned to speak to Ye Xuan. “You can stay in the living room to relax. You will be totally free these days. So, could you take advantage of it? No pressure, relax. And you don’t need to always stick around with me.”
“No, I don’t want to stay in the living room. Nothing is interesting there, except that photo of you when you were a little girl. You were a cute girl.”
Ye Xuan shook his head. “I prefer to see you cooking.”
“Naughty.”
Lin Shiru turned her head to give Ye Xuan a stare when she cut a ginger open.
Ye Xuan grinned at her.
But he stayed in the kitchen.
…
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
In the past two days, the video of Ye Xuan’s fight at Wanshan University totally went viral on the Internet.
Even the entire Cerulean Planet knew there was a fantastic genius in the Xia.
A genius who claimed he would achieve the Platinum level from the high Silver level in two months.
When countless people were paying attention to Ye Xuan, Wang Tianshan came to Jiangzhou University one day. He left with Ye Xuan in the presence of numerous people.
At the same time, it was a turbulent period outside the Xia.
More than ten Challenger-level Beast Tamers met up secretly. Then they headed for the border of the Xia together.
