Volume 9 – Chapter 80: Once Upon A Time (Part 1)

After getting the Young Master Long’s promise, the two Greedy Wolf Clan’s warriors were finally relieved.

In the eyes of these two Greedy Wolf Clan warriors, the ‘Young Master Long’ must have a close relationship with Master Long. Since this ‘Young Master Long’ had agreed, it meant that the Master True Dragon of Divine Land would not refuse to offer help in this matter.

“Young Master Long…” After Long Xiruo prescribed some medicine to these two Greedy Wolf Clan Warriors, she arranged them to meet another therapist. Then, she brought Mo Xiaofei to her office.

Mo Xiaofei thought that Long Xiruo was going to reprimand him, so he was mentally prepared already. Unexpectedly, Long Xiruo said, “Xiaofei, we will adjust the training mode from now on.”

“What?”

Long Xiruo added righteously, “The next step in your cultivation is to find the Young Master Zixing of Greedy Wolf Clan in this city.”

“Why?”

Long Xiruo didn’t give Mo Xiaofei any room for comments. She directly threw out the Young Master Zixing’s portrait obtained from the two Greedy Wolf Clan warriors. She looked at Mo Xiaofei and said, “Take this portrait and look for him. Listen, your superpowers are average mind power. There is no particularly strong aspect to it, but it also means that you can become strong in any direction. Searching for someone is good training.”

You’re right, but…

Mo Xiaofei looked at the portrait given by his teacher. This portrait is seemingly a product of soul-painting…

Those two Greedy Wolf Clan warriors are probably soul painters!

*Ahem.* Long Xiruo said sternly, “Xiaofei, you’re my student. Although I can’t publicly announce it yet, don’t shame our sect, so please work hard!”

Since it isn’t announced yet, it doesn’t affect anything, right?

Mo Xiaofei sighed and asked curiously, “By the way, teacher, do we really have a sect? May I ask what our sect is?”

“Sect…The full name of our sect is too long. I’m afraid you can’t remember it.” Long Xiruo said earnestly, “Let’s just call it Spirit…”

“Spirit?”

Long Xiruo glanced at the bookshelf at the back of the office, did not find a suitable one, and simply named it, “Spirit… Sect!”

Spirit sect… Memorial tablet? [1]

Teacher, are you sure?

“Yes, Spirit Sect! From now on, you will be the founding disciple of Spirit Sect!”

“I think I will go out and look for the missing person first.”

…

A mass of gray-white clay on the turntable was stretched out in continuous rotation, forming a simple bottle shape.

Both hands could control the appearance of this clay freely, like a creator. This was the reason why Hou Chen Yuhan was interested in becoming a potter.

In the pottery classroom, soft music was playing.

Hou Chen Yuhan had her thoughts wandering. An abrupt student’s voice alerted her, “Teacher, your clay foundation is goof-up.”

Hou Chen Yuhan was taken aback with her hand trembling slightly. The clay foundation that could have been rescued had turned into a mess at once.

Hou Chen Yuhan looked at it, stunned for a while, and then turned off the turntable. At this time, the students composed of wives all looked at Hou Chen Yuhan in a puzzled manner. This was the first time it happened.

“Teacher, are you feeling unwell?” a married wife asked curiously.

Hou Chen Yuhan did have a pale complexion today; she didn’t sleep well, most likely. Her thoughts seemed to wander off a lot. Hearing what the students said, Hou Chen Yuhan shook her head and said apologetically, “I’m sorry everyone, I am a little absent-minded today. But don’t worry, today’s class hours are not counted. I will supplement another class in return. ”

“Teacher, the class time doesn’t matter. You’re more important. What’s wrong with you?” The housewives became curious, “Did you quarrel with your husband? It’s fine. Tell us about it. I often quarrel with my husband too!”

“That’s right! Mine tends to yell. I hate that! But, the husband and wife have no overnight hatred. It will be fine in a few days!”

“Right! Teacher, let’s stop the class today. We will bring you around to have fun! I know a place! It’s fun!”

“No need, I’m fine. Thank you for your concern.” Hou Chen Yuhan shook her head.

But, she did not expect that the enthusiasm of these wives far exceeded her anticipation. These housewives suddenly threw away the tools in their hands, wiped them clean, then dragged her along and said, “Teacher Hou Chen, let’s take you to a place to relax!”

“Huh? It’s fine!”

“No problem! Mrs. Zhang knows a lot of people. Let’s go to a spa first. Then, we will have a good meal! Let’s have crazy fun. You need to return home late. Don’t tell your husband anything! Let your husband worry a little!”

Will he be worried?

Hou Chen Yuhan’s body stiffened slightly. Her thoughts were in a mess. She just let these housewives pull her out of the pottery classroom.

…

Someone was sweating on the treadmill in the gym.

If someone took a closer look, they would probably be quite surprised with the man running the treadmill. Something extreme seemed to motivate him. 8mph… 15mph…

Zhu Maolin did not go to the company today. In fact, after meeting Hou Chen Yuhan at the cemetery during the day and proposing a divorce, he did not go home that night. He simply went to a hotel and spent the night there.

He was waiting for a response.

If his wife didn’t look at him or nod her head directly, it didn’t matter what she intended to say. It would be the same for him in the end.

A married couple walking to the end of life shared a common destiny.

The man’s heart was seemingly going to pop at any time. His running at his limit was draining his energy fanatically.

“You are amazing!”

A young woman in sportswear with a fit body and a ponytail came to a treadmill. She looked at Zhu Maolin with admiring eyes.

He panted, chose to stop at this moment, and started to walk slowly. He just simply glanced at the young girl. This young girl also came here to work out and seemed familiar with how to flirt with men. At this time, she didn’t mind his indifferent attitude. She put on a faint smile, “Handsome man, I just came here. I heard that you shouldn’t use this too fast as a beginner. Can you guide me?”

“There is a coach over there.” Zhu Maolin gestured with his eyes indifferently and then walked directly off the treadmill.

The young woman noticed that Zhu Maolin was indifferent to her tease; she just turned around and left. She could not help but mutter, “Despite being physically fit, he is most likely sexually incompetence…”

Zhu Maolin heard it but did not stop. He just simply took a bath in the shower room of the gym. When he came out, he passed by that young woman and noticed her chatting with a guy enthusiastically.

The girl just cast a proud look at him.

Zhu Maolin still did not respond and strode out of the gym.

“Do you know him?” the man talking with the girl asked curiously at this time.

“I don’t know him. It doesn’t matter.” The girl shrugged.

The man laughed at this time, “That would be a pity. The person just now is a famous figure in the advertising industry. I don’t know how many great advertisements he has made. Some people even jokingly call this the leader of the advertising industry! If you have a connection with him, it’s much better than a photographer like me.”

“Is that so?” The girl laughed it off, “But, you are not bad. I am not that kind of person!”
