Even after all the attacks were detonated, we still couldn't take him down. How are we supposed to fight him now?
"Kid, I acknowledge your strength, but don't get cocky, I'll be back!"
At this moment, Tang Hao had already begun to consider leaving and was preparing to slip away.
Jiang Yunzhou saw that he wanted to run away, but that wouldn't do.
"Trying to run? I told you, you're not leaving without paying! Leave your legs behind..."
Jiang Yunzhou roared, using his soul skills to harass Tang Hao, who was trying to escape, as if they were free.
However, Tang Hao was focused on escaping, and the flying speed advantage of the titled Douluo was fully demonstrated.
Although Jiang Yunzhou's movement technique was superb, he could not stay in the air for long and ultimately could not catch up.
"You bastard! You spineless coward! Just you wait, I told you you'd pay for this!"
Jiang Yunzhou cursed at the departing figure, "Damn it, you made me come all this way for nothing! Next time we meet, I'll chop off your right leg! Brrr!"
He returned to the Supreme Academy, grumbling and cursing.
The chase lasted for more than two hours.
When they returned to the courtyard, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were both waiting there, looking worried.
"Hey? What are you guys doing standing here instead of sleeping?"
Jiang Yunzhou said irritably, "Want to do extra training? Fine, one thousand squats each, don't sleep until you finish!"
He made a wasted trip and even lost his 'potential income,' so not making any money is the same as losing money, and he's very unhappy now.
Ning Rongrong quickly stepped forward and asked cautiously, "Teacher, what are you doing out so late?"
After looking him up and down, Zhu Zhuqing asked, "Teacher, you got into a fight again?"
These words awakened Ning Rongrong.
She initially thought that since her teacher hadn't returned home late at night, he might have gone to meet the receptionist...
"Huh? So the teacher went to fight, not to 'fight'!" Her tone became subtle.
Being scrutinized by two girls, Jiang Yunzhou's displeasure dissipated considerably.
But he still stubbornly insisted, "Sigh, I lost money, I'm not happy!"
Ning Rongrong burst out laughing upon hearing this.
Jiang Yunzhou lightly slapped the back of his head in annoyance: "Laughing, laughing, you talk too much! A thousand squats! Now! Immediately! Right now! Xiao Zhuqing, you watch her do them! How dare she laugh at her teacher, she must be punished!"
After saying that, he went back into the house in a huff.
The two women smiled at each other and began to do squats.
As Zhu Zhuqing worked, she said softly, "Don't laugh at your teacher in the future. Your teacher is still young and has pride."
Ning Rongrong wanted to laugh even more when she heard this, but she tried her best to hold it in: "Yeah, I know~ Zhu Qing, do you know it's Teacher's birthday? I want to give him a box of gold coins and buy him a happy birthday."
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head with a wry smile, thinking that only Ning Rongrong could come up with such a thought.
She truly knew nothing about Jiang Yunzhou's past.
The only thing we know is that he must have had a very difficult childhood.
In Zhu Zhuqing's opinion, the teacher's liking for gold coins may not be a hobby, but rather a representation of security, perhaps because he was truly afraid of being poor.
Attentive people can always accurately see into other people's hearts.
A thousand squats are not a difficult task for them now.
It was done very easily, and then the two went back to their rooms to rest.
The courtyard under the night sky returned to tranquility.
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, Jiang Yunzhou got up.
He got angrier and angrier the more he thought about it last night, and the angrier he got, the less he could sleep.
After much deliberation, he realized that even if he managed to steal Tang Shan's belt, it wouldn't be enough to compensate for the mental anguish he suffered from Tang Hao's disturbance yesterday.
If the father is so poor, how much money could the son possibly have?
Thus, a plan took shape in his mind.
He was going to raid Tangshan's hometown and destroy his birthplace.
This move kills two birds with one stone: it not only causes trouble for Tangshan, but also forces Tang Hao to come looking for him.
Otherwise, where would a titled Douluo who is only focused on hiding get money?
"Zhu Qing, Rong Rong..."
He summoned his two disciples and went straight to the point: "I'm leaving the academy in your care. I need to go out for a few days."
Ning Rongrong immediately tugged at his sleeve and pleaded, "Teacher, where are you going? Take me with you! Take me with you! I'll cover all your expenses on the way!"
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes also showed anticipation.
Seeing Jiang Yunzhou's unusually serious expression, she swallowed back the words she was about to say and asked softly, "Teacher, how long are you going to be gone?"
This time, Jiang Yunzhou faced the temptation of gold coins head-on but still refused.
"I'm not bringing anyone this time."
Jiang Yunzhou estimated: "I'll be back in about three days."
They had never been apart for so long since they met.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't know what he was going to do, and a pang of reluctance welled up in her heart. "Won't it be dangerous?"
Jiang Yunzhou raised his chin confidently: "With your strength, Master, who do you think could pose a danger to me?"
Danger? Not at all.
Zhu Zhuqing felt that the teacher was bragging, but she had no evidence.
"I don't care, I'm going with them!"
Ning Rongrong started acting spoiled, "If you don't take me, I'll... I'll... I'll..."
She racked her brains for a long time but couldn't come up with anything that could threaten the teacher.
She felt that Jiang Yunzhou was practically flawless except for his love of money.
And now it seems like I can't live without the teacher, rather than the teacher being unable to live without me.
"Waaaaah~~ Teacher, you're so annoying!"
Chapter 45 Using you as a protective charm, isn't that reasonable?
Ning Rongrong ran back to her room, crying angrily.
In the past, at home, I could get anything done just by shedding a couple of tears.
Why is it malfunctioning now?
Jiang Yunzhou was actually quite helpless.
He's going to do bad things; is stealing from others something honorable?
This kind of thing is not suitable for two 'pure' girls to participate in. What if they are corrupted?
"Zhuqing, keep an eye on Rongrong and don't let her cause trouble."
"Don't worry, teacher, I will." Zhu Zhuqing sighed softly and nodded in agreement.
After giving his instructions, Jiang Yunzhou moved swiftly, disappearing from the academy like a gentle breeze.
He hurried along, asking for directions as he went.
At his pace, it only took him one day to successfully reach the legendary Holy Soul Village.
He strolled around the village and met Old Jack, the village chief who had personally escorted the God King to school.
This place, it just feels so-so.
"This place is supposed to be a geomantically auspicious location, and it produced a god-king? It doesn't even look that great..."
He muttered to himself as he successfully found the blacksmith's shop in the village.
He originally thought he could run into Tang Hao here and wait for him to come to him.
However, they did not meet, and by then the area in front of and behind the house was overgrown with weeds.
It's clear that no one has been back for quite some time.
But it doesn't matter, his primary goal for this trip is not Tang Hao, but to take Ah Yin away!
This was the method he had been thinking about all night.
The problem is that he doesn't know exactly where Ah Yin was planted.
All that is known is that before she was transplanted into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, Tang Hao always kept her by his side.
So, it's very likely that it's in Holy Soul Village, or it could be somewhere in the Star Trek Great Forest.
"This is tricky..." Jiang Yunzhou scratched his head.
You've come, you can't leave empty-handed.
He currently lacks special detection methods and can only rely on his senses to carefully search each Orchid Silver Grass for any fluctuations in soul power.
So, on this day, the villagers of Holy Soul Village saw a stranger wandering around the village in a strange manner, paying particular attention to the area where the Orchid Silver Grass grew, and occasionally talking to himself while looking at a clump of grass.
"Strange, the village is so small, where could they possibly hide?"
"Given Tang Hao's personality, he definitely wouldn't plant it too far away, so he can often 'remember him by the sight of the grass'..."
With this in mind, he launched another thorough search, centered on the blacksmith shop of the Tang family.
Finally, at the end of a stream at the foot of the mountain behind the house, behind a waterfall, he discovered a hidden cave.
Of course, plants aren't grown in holes; they need photosynthesis after all.
What he discovered was a seemingly random silver grass plant right next to the cave entrance, but one that had been carefully cleared of the surrounding weeds.
This location has plenty of moisture and sunlight, yet it's unusual to find a single silverwort growing there.
