Little Paperman and Yun Ran were truly ’connected at the heart,’ naturally sensing their master’s helplessness.
They could only admit defeat obediently, after all, Master Huai Yi wouldn’t actually harm them.
Little Martial Uncle extracted so of the essence imbued with Qingfeng Temple’s Dao from Yun Ran’s body and set up an Array, tossing the Little Papern inside.
After arranging for the Little Papern’s special training, Little Martial Uncle then looked at Yun Ran: "During this ti, let that little mudfish stay by your side."
Yun Ran listened as Little Martial Uncle so casually arranged for the Dragon Spirit to do sothing, and hesitated to refuse.
Anyway, as long as Little Martial Uncle wanted to accomplish sothing, it was bound to succeed.
"Understood."
As Yun Ran lowered her head to obediently accept Little Martial Uncle’s plan, he suddenly reached out and tousled her hair.
"My Spirit Puppet’s ti in this world is limited. I’m strict with you because I want you to live longer in this world, not because I disdain you."
A pang hit Yun Ran’s heart, the thing she often deliberately avoided thinking about was finally laid out plainly.
"Little Martial Uncle..."
"Enough, this isn’t so emotional drama. For , as long as you’re alive, it doesn’t matter in which world you are."
The emotions Yun Ran had been brewing didn’t have ti to burst before Little Martial Uncle quickly doused them.
"Before my Spirit Puppet dissipates, I’ll definitely pave the way for you. Just don’t be reckless as you were before - there aren’t as many Martial Uncles and Masters here to back you up!"
Getting caught and criticized by Little Martial Uncle again left Yun Ran feeling deflated.
Ah, how she missed her Martial Uncles and Masters. She wondered if they missed her antics when she wasn’t around.
Martial Uncles and Masters: Please don’t, when you’re not here, even the air feels eternally fresh. Just live well in your distant place and stop thinking about us!
anwhile, the Dragon Spirit was enjoying a cultural imrsion with opera in his villa when he suddenly heard a crisp call.
His half-closed eyes snapped wide open.
Once he realized it was Little Martial Uncle summoning him, a flicker of hesitation crossed the Dragon Spirit’s gaze.
Little Martial Uncle calling him was naturally a pleasure.
But right now, he’s quite displeased with Yun Ran and wasn’t keen on warming up to cold shoulders!
"Hmph, damned Yun Ran, always enslaving !"
Although Dragon Spirit showed reluctance, his actions were swift as he turned to change clothes.
The sea turtle leisurely crawled up from the specialized pond made for him.
Only after being with the Dragon King did the sea turtle realize that life for turtles could be different.
In the sea, they were free but also in great danger.
Many of its kin had gained spiritual wisdom, but few were living well.
Nowadays, life was good for the sea turtle—no worries about food and drink, no predators, and even special care. Life was beautiful.
The sea turtle wanted to express its daily gratitude.
Instead, he saw the Dragon King turning away like sothing urgent had co up.
With such eagerness, anyone would think there was sothing of trendous importance.
In the past, the sea turtle would have been worried, but now he’d grown accustod.
At alti, a servant brought over a bucket filled with the freshest prawns.
The servant was impressed by the sea turtle’s punctuality, climbing up from the custom saltwater pool at alti.
The servant marveled: "You’ve really beco supernatural, knowing when to co up for als. Here, these are your favorites."
He loved his current job, especially after being poached from a marine zoo with a high salary.
Originally, he thought the high-paid owner would be difficult to serve, but it turned out to be a divine job.
While feeding the sea turtle, the servant reminisced: "What was on the mind of the person serving you before, clearly such a good job yet they abused you.
Replacing the fresh prawns ordered by the boss with dead fish and stale shrimp, leaving you hungry, luckily the boss found out, or you would’ve suffered greatly."
The sea turtle munched on shrimp, his beady eyes rolling with human-like annoyance.
[Hmph, indeed, that idiot skimped on my rations, thinking I wouldn’t report it—I’m the Dragon King’s little follower!]
The servant chuckled at the sea turtle’s antics as he fed and polished its shell.
Feeling the servant’s utmost care, the sea turtle nudged the servant’s hand after finishing the last shrimp.
[You’ve taken great care of , don’t worry—I’ll inform the Dragon King to give you a raise. You’re lucky to have ~]
Dragon Spirit hurriedly left without saying a word.
This confused the sea turtle, considering the Dragon King had declared he’d ignore his savior (Yun Ran) from now on, yet now he left so quickly.
Ah well, not sothing a simple-minded sea turtle could grasp.
Dragon Spirit’s villa wasn’t far from the hilltop hotel, roughly two hours by car.
Driving to the hotel, the more Dragon Spirit thought about it, the angrier he got—even if he hadn’t inford Yun Ran he was back in Hai City.
Wouldn’t that guy called Xuan Chu know?
Since they knew he’d return to Hai City, why not send him an invitation for the coming-of-age ceremony? Clearly, they didn’t care for him.
Fine then, at the ceremony, guests ended up poisoned.
If Yun Ran had invited him earlier, where he was, how could those perpetrators act so boldly!
So, after all that, Yun Ran couldn’t do without him by her side for support!
Now she eagerly calls him over and he swears he’ll give Yun Ran a huge if disdainful look!
Dragon Spirit cut the drive from two hours to one.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, he saw rows of police cars.
His luxury car was imdiately stopped.
"Sir, this area is temporarily sealed off, please leave."
Dragon Spirit glanced at the person blocking him, snorted coldly, and handed over the badge issued by the Special Administration Bureau.
Dragon Spirit used to find the Bureau’s people annoying; he, a natural-born Life, should be free to go wherever.
Now, seeing the respectful attitude from the person checking the badge, unexpectedly this certificate looked more pleasing.
