Chapter 64: Crawling Into His Arms
Tang San nodded. "Teacher, I will try to find out."
He was also very curious. What kind of faction did Aotian, who possessed such powerful talent and astonishing wealth, come from?
The Dean said, "Doesn't the Spirit Power Certificate have his home address? We just need to check the records to understand. A pity, you were originally hoping to take that Gu Yuena as a disciple. From the looks of it now, there's no hope."
Grandmaster said self-deprecatingly, "How could a genius of her caliber possibly look up to a theoretical Master like me?"
...
On the road, Gu Yuena asked, puzzled, "Senior Aotian, that Grandmaster is just a good-for-nothing. Why did you say so much to him? And that Tang San, you could blow him to death with a single breath. Why waste time suppressing your strength to fight him?"
Aotian sighed. "Gu Yuena, at my realm, whatever I want is effortlessly obtainable. Thus, when I do things, I focus more on the process. The result isn't important, because whatever result I want, I can have. So, if I find something interesting, I'll do it. I won't consider whether it's a waste of time, because to me, time is worthless."
"Senior Aotian's realm is truly beyond the comprehension of ordinary people," Gu Yuena also sighed.
Aotian stroked her long, smooth silver hair. It felt incredibly silky. He smiled, "Gu Yuena, when you too possess strength like mine one day, perhaps you'll also seek out some simple yet interesting things to do."
Being patted on the head by Aotian, Gu Yuena's stunningly beautiful face instantly turned crimson. As the Silver Dragon King, this was the first time she had ever been touched on the head like this.
Although she had repeatedly said she wanted to pledge herself to Senior Aotian, just a simple pat on the head from him filled her with immense shyness.
"Ao... Senior Aotian, you can just call me Na'er or Yuena."
Aotian thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll call you Na'er. You should also stop calling me Senior Aotian. Just call me Aotian."
"I wouldn't dare," Gu Yuena said quickly. "Senior is an ancestor of our Dragon Race. How could I address you directly by your name?"
"But you've already called me that many times before," Aotian said, smiling at her.
"That's because... I was afraid you would attract the attention of others," Gu Yuena explained.
"Even Xiao Wu dares to call me by my name, why don't you? It's settled. You're not allowed to call me Senior Aotian anymore," Aotian said.
Gu Yuena finally nodded. "Alright, Senior Aotian."
"..." Aotian was speechless.
...
Dinner was still eaten in the Cafeteria. In truth, it didn't matter whether Aotian and Gu Yuena ate or not. Gu Yuena's earlier claims of nearly starving to death were just an attempt to act pitiful in front of Aotian.
The main concern was Xiao Wu. Her cultivation level was still too low, currently only at the level of a Spirit Master. She still needed to replenish her energy through food.
Ever since the match, Tang San hadn't returned. It wasn't until night fell and everyone was beginning to rest that he finally appeared.
The bruises on his face from Aotian's blows had already vanished. He wasn't smiling. After returning, he didn't speak to anyone, simply sitting down and starting his cultivation.
Being defeated by Aotian again today, he felt not only shame but was also spurred on.
They both had Innate Full Spirit Power, so why could Aotian cultivate to become a Great Spirit Master while he could not?
He was a disciple of the Tang Sect! And he possessed a superior internal cultivation method like the Mysterious Heaven Skill. There was no reason he should lose to a seven-year-old child, especially one who had never even cultivated.
He himself possessed a superior cultivation method and cultivated painstakingly, while the other person never cultivated at all. Yet, he still couldn't compare. Even with Tang San's adult temperament, he found this fact incredibly hard to accept, feeling an extreme sense of injustice in his heart.
It was now late at night. The lights in the dormitory were out. In the darkness, Tang San opened his eyes and looked at the beds of Aotian and Xiao Wu across from him.
On Xiao Wu's side, both she and Gu Yuena were sitting cross-legged. Xiao Wu was cultivating her spirit power, while Gu Yuena was refining and absorbing the essence blood Aotian had given her.
She discovered that the closer she was to Aotian, the faster her refining speed became. This brought a pleasant surprise to her heart, and she secretly thought that coming to Nuoding Academy was the right choice.
Aotian, on the other hand, had already lain down and closed his eyes to rest.
Seeing this scene, the injustice in Tang San's heart erupted once more, making it difficult for him to enter a state of cultivation.
After several failed attempts to cultivate normally, he simply lay down, deciding not to cultivate anymore.
In order to defeat Aotian, he had spent nearly every night of the past year in cultivation, with very little time for sleep.
Tonight, having decided not to cultivate, he surprisingly fell asleep very quickly.
In a daze, Aotian felt a soft, warm body in his arms. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. He thought that restless little girl, Xiao Wu, had sleepwalked over to his side again.
He didn't think much of it and hugged her tightly. In any case, that girl Xiao Wu wouldn't wake up—a conclusion he had reached after many observations.
It wasn't that he had any wicked thoughts about Xiao Wu; after all, she was just a little girl. He simply felt that it was more comfortable to sleep while holding something.
"Hmm... something seems off." Aotian's eyes were still closed, but his nose twitched.
This body fragrance was clearly not that of the little girl Xiao Wu, and the feel of her skin was also a bit smoother than Xiao Wu's.
Aotian's eyes shot open, and he woke with a start.
He looked into his arms. The darkness of the night could not obstruct his vision. He saw Gu Yuena curled up in his embrace, her large purple eyes shining brightly, staring at him without blinking.
"Ao... Tian," Gu Yuena called out in a small voice.
"How can it be you?" Aotian quickly let go of Gu Yuena.
If it were Xiao Wu, he could treat her as a little girl, but this was Gu Yuena.
He had once seen Gu Yuena's perfectly captivating body. Although Gu Yuena had shrunk her body now, how could he possibly treat her as a little girl?
Gu Yuena pouted, saying aggrievedly, "You hugged me tightly just now, but the moment you realized it was me, you immediately showed your disdain. Am I not even comparable to Xiao Wu?"
Aotian explained, "That's not it. Xiao Wu has transformed into a human and is truly only seven years old. But you, the dignified Silver Dragon King, how could I treat you as a little girl?"
Gu Yuena's eyes lit up, and she said with some excitement, "So you're saying you don't dare to face my temptation, that you can't maintain your usual composure?"
Aotian was suddenly at a loss for words. Could it be that this Gu Yuena actually wanted him to take advantage of her?
Thinking of this, his expression gradually turned cold as he said, "Go back over there. If you don't, I'll have to force you back."
"Senior Aotian, don't!" Gu Yuena cried out pitifully.
"Actually, I discovered that when I'm near you, my injuries recover faster. That's why I came over."
"Really?" Aotian looked into her eyes.
"Really." Gu Yuena nodded lightly and said, "Gu Yuena never lies."
Aotian's divine sense entered Gu Yuena's body and observed for a moment before his tone softened. "If you are truly here to heal your injuries, then don't crawl into my arms."
"Mhm, I understand." Gu Yuena gave a sweet smile and lay down beside Aotian.
Aotian sighed inwardly, wondering if unintentionally waking Gu Yuena back then was right or wrong.
What man doesn't want to wield power over the world when awake and rest on a beauty's lap when drunk? Moreover, Gu Yuena was such an unparalleled beauty. Aotian admitted that his heart was a little moved.
But he already had Bibi Dong. Without getting Bibi Dong's approval first, he didn't dare look for a Xiao San.
That was why he had rejected her, despite Gu Yuena's multiple clear expressions of wanting to pledge herself to him.
"Sigh, I'll find a chance to ask Dong'er first."
