Chapter 285: The Shock of the Sea God Pavilion Elders
Just as a certain fox was about to perform a high-speed drift on Mount Akina.
Yan Shaozhe descended from the sky and let out a loud cough.
Ma Xiaotao and Jiang Nannan were startled by what they heard and quickly broke free from Ye Nanxiao's embrace. They couldn't be so intimate with Ye Nanxiao in front of outsiders.
Ye Nanxiao stared at Yan Shaozhe with dead fish eyes, his face full of impatience.
Yan Shaozhe glanced at his apprentice, whose face was flushed with embarrassment, and glared at Ye Nanxiao. That was his precious apprentice whom he had taught for many years. How could he have been tricked away by this shameless fox!
The dean of a certain martial spirit department, clutching his chest and feeling sorry for his precious disciple, had completely forgotten why he was there.
"You fox, you come back and start bullying my disciple!" Yan Shaozhe said, blowing his beard and glaring.
"Can't you be serious for once!"
Listening to Yan Shaozhe's incessant lecturing, Ye Nanxiao pursed his lips, slumped his head, and began to think about how to conquer Wushan tonight.
Seeing Ye Nanxiao's absent-minded look, Yan Shaozhe smiled helplessly, reached out and tapped Ye Nanxiao's head, and said, "I know you've just come back and your heart is full of thoughts about your two little wives, but now that you're back, go to the Sea God Pavilion to see Elder Mu."
Ye Nanxiao nodded, his gaze fixed on his wife.
Seeing this, Yan Shaozhe pondered for a moment, then took out a positioning soul tool from his pocket. "This is the positioning soul tool I put on Lao Qian before. After receiving the news of your return, Lao Qian didn't even go to the Soul Guidance Department today."
As soon as Ye Nanxiao brought out Qian Duoduo, his gaze indeed shifted to Yan Shaozhe.
"Dean Qian isn't at work? We have to report this. Passive shirking will result in a pay cut!" Ye Nanxiao's gaze followed the positioning soul tool in Yan Shaozhe's hand.
"Then, as a model student of Shrek Academy, the task of bringing Lao Qian back to work will be yours." Yan Shaozhe tossed the positioning soul tool to Ye Nanxiao.
"Xiao Tao, you haven't finished your training yet!" Yan Shaozhe said with a stern face.
Ma Xiaotao, who was called out, pouted somewhat discontentedly and said, "Master, can we have a day off today?"
Yan Shaozhe frowned and glared at Ye Nanxiao. Ma Xiaotao used to be the most enthusiastic one whenever it came to training, but now that she's been following this fox, she's become lazy. It's all Ye Nanxiao's fault.
Ye Nanxiao felt a little uneasy under Yan Shaozhe's resentful gaze.
"If you don't go to training now, you can forget about spending the night with this fox!" Yan Shaozhe said with a stern face, feigning seriousness.
Seeing that Yan Shaozhe had used his trump card, Ma Xiaotao had no choice but to agree to go to training.
Upon hearing Ma Xiaotao agree to train, Yan Shaozhe finally dropped his stern expression and resumed his usual gentle smile.
Ye Nanxiao clicked his tongue, but he also knew that Ma Xiaotao's training was very important.
Ma Xiaotao walked up to Ye Nanxiao and pinched his cheek.
"No sneaking around tonight! Wait for Sister Tao to come back!"
"Are you looking forward to the reward I promised you?"
Upon hearing the word "reward," Ye Nanxiao's expression instantly turned serious.
"Don't worry, Sister Tao, I always keep my promises!"
"Good boy." Ma Xiaotao gave Ye Nanxiao a light kiss on the cheek, then left with Yan Shaozhe.
The reward... I wonder what kind of storm I'll be facing tonight!
Ye Nanxiao's lips curled into a wild smile.
A small hand tugged at the corner of Ye Nanxiao's upturned mouth, and Jiang Nannan said with a playful expression, "Your soul has floated away?"
Ye Nanxiao reached out and grasped the small hand that was moving on his face, then pulled Jiang Nannan into his arms. "My soul has always been with you, how could it possibly drift away?"
"You glib-tongued fox." Jiang Nannan reached out and tugged at Ye Nanxiao's face, then moved to Ye Nanxiao's head and gently stroked it.
"Not soft enough!" Jiang Nannan pouted.
Ye Nanxiao smiled and controlled his martial soul, causing two fluffy fox ears to pop out from his head.
"It feels so much better to massage like this!" Jiang Nannan snuggled into Ye Nanxiao's arms, playing with Ye Nanxiao's fox ears.
Ye Nanxiao hugged Jiang Nannan's slender waist tightly and buried his face in Jiang Nannan's neck.
"Nannan".
"Hmm~"
"I bought a lot of new rouge, I want to try them out."
"glutton!"
Poseidon Island.
A figure was sitting by the lake, holding a chicken leg in his hand, enjoying the breeze, and staring at the direction of the inner courtyard.
"Shao Zhe and Xiao Tao have already returned, but why is Xiao Xiao still missing?" Elder Xuan muttered.
Looking up at the sun, which was already beginning to set in the west, Elder Xuan stuffed the whole chicken leg into his mouth and casually wiped his greasy right hand on his dirty robe.
He picked up the wine flask hanging at his waist, tilted his head back, and gulped it down.
Only a few drops of wine fell into Elder Xuan's mouth from the wine pot.
Only then did Elder Xuan realize that he had drunk all the wine in the wine pot while waiting.
Old Master Xuan frowned, tucked the wine pot back into his waistband, and then pulled out a greasy chicken leg from his pocket.
An elderly man dressed in a gray robe with a kind face walked out of the Sea God Pavilion, caught sight of Elder Xuan, and stepped forward to ask him a question.
"Elder Xuan, why are you still here?"
"Waiting for someone," Elder Xuan said, shaking his chicken leg and speaking indistinctly.
The gray-robed old man looked up at the sun. He remembered that he had arrived at the Sea God Pavilion a little after noon. At that time, Elder Xuan was already waiting for someone by the lake. Now the sun was only an hour away from setting.
"Who could possibly keep Elder Xuan waiting for so long?" the gray-robed elder wondered, bowed to Elder Xuan, and then left.
It wasn't until Elder Xuan finished eating all the chicken legs he had brought with him that Ye Nanxiao's swaying figure appeared on the lake.
With practiced aim, he threw the chicken leg bone in his hand.
A second later, Ye Nanxiao's shouts echoed from the lake: "What a sharp chicken leg bone! You actually launched a sneak attack!"
Elder Xuan appeared in front of Ye Nanxiao in an instant, staring at Ye Nanxiao expressionlessly.
Ye Nanxiao held a chicken leg bone in his hand. Seeing Elder Xuan's expression, he gave an awkward smile and said, "Long time no see, Elder Xuan."
Without wasting words, Elder Xuan reached out and grabbed Ye Nanxiao, his figure flashing as he instantly appeared in the Sea God Pavilion.
With the feeling of being grounded returning, Ye Nanxiao decisively took out the wine he had brewed in his spare time during this period from his storage ring.
Five large wine vats, each the size of a person's embrace, landed on the ground.
Old Master Xuan stroked his somewhat tangled beard, waved his hand to lift all the lids of the wine vats, and the wine gourd at his waist emitted a suction force, sucking all the wine from the large vats.
"Elder Mu is waiting for you. I don't know what's going on. I'm going to have a drink now." Elder Xuan left with his wine jug, completely satisfied.
Ye Nanxiao breathed a sigh of relief; he had almost been hit on the head with a chicken leg bone again.
I straightened my collar to cover the hickey and crescent-shaped teeth marks on my neck.
Upon reaching the second floor, Elder Mu was still reclining in his chair, gazing at the sky from the window, lost in thought. Several elders from the Sea God Pavilion were also seated at the conference table, clearly waiting specifically for Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao recognized these elders; they were all elders from the Soul Guidance Department, but he did not see Qian Duoduo or Xian Lin'er.
"Lin'er has important matters to attend to right now, as for Duoduo..." Old Master Mu smiled.
"Student Ye Nanxiao greets Elder Mu and all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion," Ye Nanxiao said, bowing.
"You're here? Looks like you're not so engrossed in your love affair after all," an old woman joked.
Elder Mu swayed his recliner back to the main seat, pointed to an empty seat at the end, and said with a gentle smile, "Nanxiao, tell me your current views on the Sun Moon Empire."
Ye Nanxiao walked to his seat, crossed his hands in front of him, and said, "The Sun Moon Empire's soul tool technology is developing very rapidly. Mingde Hall has a wide range of research areas. Among them, the most noteworthy are the popularization of soul tools and the research on soul tool armor. If the former is successfully researched, it can increase the Sun Moon Empire's current army size by at least two times. As for the latter, it is the Battle Armor Project that I mentioned before."
Ye Nanxiao stated the two most noteworthy points and then quietly waited for the elders to digest the information.
The elders exchanged glances, their gazes finally settling on the old woman who had spoken earlier.
"Elder Lin, about this matter," an elder said.
Old Lin smiled faintly and looked at Ye Nanxiao. "Ye Nanxiao, you already have a solution, don't you?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao grinned. The improved soul-guided hidden weapons he had developed could be used by ordinary people who had received special training. As for the battle armor, he believed that he could develop it given enough time.
"Elders, Tang Clan's production is gradually increasing. Although the quantity is a bit small, it is still sufficient to support the scale of several special teams."
Old Lin looked at an elder, who immediately understood and nodded in agreement.
"Fan Yu told me that you have obtained the token to enter Mingde Hall. So, how much do you know about Mingde Hall?" Elder Lin asked.
Ye Nanxiao stroked his chin and said something surprising, "You know a little, but not much. Does the fact that you almost became the heir to Mingde Hall count?"
After he finished speaking, the group of elders fell silent. Even Elder Mu opened his eyes and looked at Ye Nanxiao with a strange expression.
Then, a look of shock appeared on the faces of all the elders.
"Mingdetang? The heir? You're going to become Jing Hongchen's son-in-law!?" Old Master Lin said in shock.
A sound like a wine jug falling to the ground came from the doorway, and then Elder Xuan slipped into the conference hall.
"You brat, it hasn't been long since we last met, and you've already managed to get into that old scoundrel Jing Hongchen's family tree?" There were some wine stains on the wine pot in Elder Xuan's hand, indicating that it was this wine pot that had just been dropped.
Ye Nanxiao calmly took in everyone's expressions and smiled, "It was almost true. I almost got forcibly summoned by Jing Hongchen."
"This is no joke, kid, take it seriously!" Elder Xuan sat down next to Ye Nanxiao, a chicken leg bone appearing in his hand. "You'd better tell the truth! Otherwise, you'll be in for a world of hurt!"
Seeing the glistening chicken leg bone in Elder Xuan's hand, Ye Nanxiao immediately became obedient.
It's not just about admitting defeat in the face of absolute power; more importantly, the safe distance has been broken by Elder Xuan.
