Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Where's the promised den of dragons and tigers?

  Why do I feel like this is a clinging little demon?

  Flender was secretly surprised.

  He had a hunch that even draining all his soul power wouldn't be enough to feed this creature.

  So,

  he gave up.

  It doesn't matter if the bow doesn't fire. It's not human, I can't argue with it.

  Flender consoled himself with this.

  However, as he shifted his gaze, he noticed that Lin Yan, with his sleeves rolled up, had already reached the lake.

  "Isn't he going to clean the fish directly?"

  You know, the water temperature is quite high.

  Soul beasts like the pike, while powerful, are also extremely demanding in their growth conditions. They have extremely high requirements for water.

  Take the lake before them, for example. Although it's not frozen, the water temperature is extremely low, reaching temperatures of dozens or even hundreds of degrees below zero.

  To put it bluntly, if a soul master enters the water without soul power, he will instantly freeze into a block of ice.

  Even Flender, a Soul Saint-level powerhouse, wouldn't venture into this danger without soul power to protect him.

  Don't look at the three-headed hellhound named Dahei just swimming in it.

  But that doesn't mean everyone can withstand it.

  The physique of a soul beast hundreds of thousands of years old is simply beyond human imagination.

  "Dean Flender, come quickly! The water is so cool and comfortable."

  Lin Yan had already reached the lake's edge, even throwing up a handful of water.

  "Uh, so cool? So comfortable? I believe you!"

  Flender's eyelids twitched, his heart pounding with shock.

  And the next moment, Flender witnessed another horrifying scene.

  Lin Yan pulled out a half-foot-long, pitch-black kitchen knife from nowhere.

  The knife had a matte black finish and didn't seem sharp.

  But Lin Yan, holding this seemingly insignificant knife, slashed open the shuttle and began cleaning it by the lake.

  Flender was petrified. How sharp a knife could be to see through a skin harder than metal?

  Lin Yan's fish-handling technique was skillful.

  Slicing, cutting off the head and tail, the whole process was completed in a matter of moments.

  Not long. Lin Yan came to Flanders, took the longbow from Flanders' hand, and then slung it over his body easily.

  "I'm sorry. Sorry to have kept you waiting."

  Lin Yan smiled slightly.

  "It's okay." Flanders waved his hands quickly, not daring to say anything more.

  Now, he was completely convinced.

  Respecting the strong is not shameful.

  He is a Soul Saint, but he can't even open a hunting bow.

  He is a Soul Saint, but he dare not even touch water.

  Forget about him being a Soul Saint, let's not talk about it!

  In his heart, Flanders became more respectful to Lin Yan.

  This big guy's style of doing things is unpredictable.

  The

  sapphire-like lake is not far from where Lin Yan lives.

  It took only ten minutes to reach his residence.

  When a courtyard built along the stream appeared in front of Flanders, he was speechless for a long time.

  "Damn it. My mind is broken. Shouldn't the very center of the Star Dou Great Forest be the Dragon's Den and the Tiger's Lair?"

  "Where's the Dragon's Den and the Tiger's Lair?"

  Flender muttered.

  This place was so different from the deep forbidden land he'd heard so much about!

  "Dean Flender, what are you talking about?"

  Lin Yan asked, puzzled. He genuinely hadn't heard clearly.

  "I'm talking about the beautiful scenery here."

  Flender chuckled.

  "It's really nice here. Besides the beautiful scenery, it's also very safe. There's not even a soul beast."

  If you ask Lin Yan what he likes most about this world, it's the pure land before him. It

  's so peaceful.

  Haha, if you say so, it is.

  Flender looked at Dahei and smiled without saying anything.

  Before the two men and the dog even reached the door, they had already disturbed the people in the courtyard.

  They heard a startled voice.

  "Teacher, are you back?"

  "Qing'er, it's me,"

  Lin Yan replied.

  Then, Flender saw the wooden door open. A youthful and pretty figure threw herself into Lin Yan's arms like a young swallow returning to its nest.

  Even though Flanders had seen countless people, he couldn't help but admire, "What a natural beauty!"

  "I thought you didn't want Qing'er anymore. Why are you back so late?"

  Zhu Zhuqing said coquettishly.

  Less than half a day had passed, and she had already realized how much she couldn't bear to leave Lin Yan.

  "Well, Qing'er, we have guests here."

  Lin Yan smiled awkwardly and gently patted the kitten in his arms. He introduced, "This is Dean Flanders of Shrek Academy."

  "Dean Flanders, hello. My name is Zhu Zhuqing."

  Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes flashed. She hadn't expected this charcoal-like figure to be Flanders.

  What a coincidence.

  She had already made up her mind: after obtaining her third spirit ring, she would go to Shrek Academy to break off her engagement.

  After that, she would return to the Star Dou Great Forest to be with her teacher.

  "Hello."

  Flanders was also shocked. He remembered that one of his students had once mentioned that he had a fiancée named Zhu Zhuqing.

  However, after witnessing the close relationship between Lin Yan and Zhu Zhuqing, Flanders dared not mention it.

  After Flanders entered the courtyard, Lin Yan invited him to take a seat. "Dean, take a break. I'll go prepare dinner. We'll have grilled fish in a stone pot today."

  "Grilled fish!"

  Zhu Zhuqing's eyes lit up.

  She had long been fascinated by Lin Yan's delicious food.

  At the mention of food, she unconsciously licked her lips.

  However, Flanders had never heard of their conversation.

  Shock was all he could think of. He realized he had arrived at a rare and precious place.

  "One day of training here is equivalent to ten days outside! Is this a miracle?"

  Lin Yan seemed to have remembered something. "Little greedy cat. Didn't you see the guests? Go get Dean Flanders a glass of water."

  "Yes,"

  Zhu Zhuqing nodded obediently. She quickly brought a glass of water to Flanders.

  Although Flanders seemed dazed, he had actually entered a meditative state.

  The water was placed in front of him, but he showed no sign of wanting to drink.

  And if he didn't drink, Zhu Zhuqing wouldn't urge him.

  For her, apart from Lin Yan, she was too lazy to smile at anyone. She

  even felt it was superfluous to glance at him.

  However.

  Zhu Zhuqing didn't care about Flanders, but that didn't mean no one noticed him.

  No.

  It should be said that there was a dog watching him.

  In Dahei's opinion, the master offering someone water was a huge honor.

  You should accept the kindness shown to you and never be ungrateful.

  Then, a chilling breath instantly sobered Flanders.

  The meaning was obvious.

  "Hey, why am I thirsty all of a sudden?"

  Flanders swore that he was not afraid of the strength of this soul beast overlord.

  He simply wanted to drink water.

  He picked up the water cup and drank it all.

  Flanders thought, this is just a glass of water, what else can it be?

  But the next second, he was surprised to find that this water was too unusual.

  He felt as if the top of his head was suddenly exploded by a ray of spiritual light, and a stream of clear spiritual energy flowed through his entire throat, and every pore exuded a cool and refreshing breathability.

  This comfortable feeling even made Flanders shamelessly let out a comfortable sound of "ah".

  When he made this sound, Flanders himself was startled. He

  quickly covered his mouth.

  Embarrassing, it was really too embarrassing.

  He saw Dahei looking at him with an "astonished" look. He

  was actually mocked by a dog. Flanders' old face flushed.

  Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face was cold.

  But she also understood Flanders.

  Wasn't she in the same mood when she drank a glass of spiritual water containing soul power?

  However, no one saw it at that time.

  It was obviously very embarrassing. But that feeling really made people refreshed and full of yearning.

  So. Flanders chose to ignore the look into his eyes. He lowered his head and pushed the cup forward.

  "Another, another glass."

   Can you give me some free tickets, big guys.
