Chapter 71: Dugu Yan: Oh no, our house has been raided!
Ye Lingling quietly took off her cloak beside her.
Her temperament remained as aloof as ever, like a crabapple blossom in a secluded valley, but the continuous trials and tribulations had added a touch of fortitude to her originally gentle features.
"Yanzi, are we going to the Kingdom of Barak next?"
Ye Lingling asked softly.
"Yes, Teacher Qin Ming has already made the arrangements."
Dugu Yan nodded, a hint of excitement in her voice.
"I've heard that the style of Soul Masters there is completely different from that of Heaven Dou City, so it's a good place to practice."
Their Royal Fighting Team, led by Qin Ming, competed in one-on-one and two-on-two arenas in several cities surrounding Heavenly Fighting City.
With her formidable strength, Dugu Yan swept aside all opponents at the Soul Master level.
With her level 44 soul power and the control of the deadly poison, Dugu Yan was virtually invincible.
"Xuanming and Rongrong should be back by now," Ye Lingling said with a hint of longing in her voice.
Dugu Yan snorted.
"Who knows where that kid is having a good time right now, with that little girl Rongrong by his side."
She said that, but her glances around betrayed her inner anticipation.
Just then, the mansion's main gate was pushed open.
Ye Xuanming and Ning Rongrong walked in.
"Xuanming!"
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling spoke almost simultaneously.
The next moment, two fragrant breezes swept into Ye Xuanming's arms.
Dugu Yan hugged him tightly, as if she wanted to meld herself into his body.
Ye Lingling simply clung tightly to him, burying her face in his chest, silently expressing her longing.
Ye Xuanming stretched out his arms and hugged the two girls he had been longing for tightly.
Ning Rongrong stood to the side, watching the scene, her little mouth slightly pouting.
But she quickly adjusted her mindset.
She subtly puffed out her small chest and raised her chin slightly.
It's okay. I've spent so much time alone with Brother Ye, and I'm the first person to win him over.
The two of them are still completely in the dark.
This slight jealousy was quickly replaced by a sense of superiority as a victor.
Ye Xuanming spent a long time comforting the two girls before they finally let go of each other's hands.
He looked at Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
Dugu Yan is even more charming and beautiful, with a mature elegance.
Ye Lingling has shed some of her girlish naiveté, and her temperament has become increasingly ethereal.
"Is your training over?" Ye Xuanming asked softly.
"Yes, Teacher Qin Ming gave us a few days off, and then we'll be going to the Soto City Great Soul Arena in the Barak Kingdom for intensive training."
Dugu Yan replied.
Soto is a border city within the Kingdom of Barak.
Ye Xuanming's heart skipped a beat; wasn't that the place where Shrek Academy was located?
It seems the gears of the plot have already started to turn.
That night, in the Ye family's restaurant.
Ye Xingyue prepared a sumptuous dinner to welcome everyone back.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was somewhat awkward.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling kept serving food to Ye Xuanming, telling him about the interesting things they had experienced during this period.
Ning Rongrong was not to be outdone. She sat next to Ye Xuanming, occasionally acting coquettishly, and told him about her experiences at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Of course, the matter concerning the brocade tulip and the Nine-Pagoda was also mentioned.
After all, everyone present, except Ning Rongrong, had previously taken the herb.
Ye Xingyue watched the three girls vying for Ye Xuanming's attention, covering her mouth and chuckling to herself. Every now and then, she would give Ye Xuanming a "good luck" look.
After dinner, the group sat in the living room chatting.
Dugu Yan's attention finally fell entirely on Ning Rongrong.
She felt that Ning Rongrong seemed different this time.
The Ning Rongrong of the past, though confident and proud, had a touch of girlish arrogance in her confidence.
Now, Ning Rongrong possesses an indescribable charm in her every gesture.
That was the charm of a girl transforming into a woman.
Who is Dugu Yan? She herself is a master of seduction and is most sensitive to such changes in aura.
She subtly observed Ning Rongrong, noticing her slightly flushed cheeks and the unintentional look of satisfaction on her face.
A bold guess surfaced in her mind.
Dugu Yan paused in his movements.
She glanced at Ning Rongrong, who was still sharing snacks with Ye Lingling, and then at Ye Xuanming, who was drinking tea.
"Well, you little brat Ye Xuanming, you actually let this little girl steal your house!"
Dugu Yan cursed inwardly.
She noticed that Ning Rongrong had noticed her gaze and even raised her eyebrows at her in a provocative manner.
An unnamed fire ignited in Dugu Yan's heart.
She stood up.
"I'm tired, I'm going back to my room to rest."
Dugu Yan said something to everyone, then turned and left.
But as she passed by Ye Xuanming, she drew a deep line on the back of his hand with her finger.
The gesture carried both a warning and an invitation.
Night was falling.
After seeing Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong off, who was still somewhat reluctant to part, Ye Xuanming returned to his room.
He sat on the edge of the bed, recalling the suggestive gesture Dugu Yan made when she left.
He knew tonight would not be peaceful.
really.
Not long after, a very light knock was heard on the door.
Ye Xuanming got up and opened the door.
Standing outside the door was none other than Dugu Yan.
She had already taken a bath, and her body was damp with moisture and had a delicate, orchid-like fragrance.
She changed out of her outfit and was only wearing a dark green silk nightgown.
The nightgown was made of a light and thin material, clinging tightly to her mature and full curves, and the deep V-neck revealed a breathtakingly beautiful sight.
The skirt was very short, only reaching mid-thigh, exposing two long, shapely calves to the air, their skin glowing white in the moonlight.
Her long, dark green hair was not tied up, but draped over her shoulders like seaweed, with a few playful strands falling in front of her chest, adding a touch of languid sexiness.
Dugu Yan leaned against the door frame, her whole being resembling a beautiful serpent, every curve radiating a deadly allure.
"What? Aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"
Dugu Yan spoke, her voice carrying a hint of hoarse magnetism.
Ye Xuanming stepped aside to let her in.
The door was closed gently.
Dugu Yan did not sit down, but walked straight to Ye Xuanming, extended her index finger, and gently drew circles on his chest.
"How long have I been gone and my house has already been burgled?"
Her tone carried a hint of resentment, a touch of teasing, and a subtle, almost imperceptible sourness.
Ye Xuanming grabbed her mischievous fingers, somewhat helplessly.
"Yanzi..."
"Don't call me."
Dugu Yan interrupted him, wrapped her other arm around his neck, stood on tiptoe, and breathed out fragrant air.
"Let me think, is that pink-haired little girl lying in bed right now, smugly reminiscing about how she took advantage of you?"
Her words were direct and bold.
Ye Xuanming's breath hitched.
