Chapter 44 - Chapter 44: One Should Not Be Too Cocky 

Ling Chang'e personally experienced the consequences of being cocky and realized that one should not be too cocky.

Look, it was because she was too cocky that this tragedy happened.

Looking at Guangling Douluo, who was close at hand, Ling Chang'e forced a smile at him and said carefully, "Master, good morning."

"Today's sun is so dazzling, your adorable disciple is going blind…"

"Really?"

Guangling Douluo smiled faintly at her; that meaningful smile made Ling Chang'e's hair stand on end.

That smile held ill intentions.

This Master was petty and childish.

She wished she hadn't provoked him.

"Of course, it's true."

Ling Chang'e chuckled at him; that sweet and innocent smile made Guangling Douluo's smile widen.

"This amount of spirit power won't blind you."

"Do you want me to help you?"

"My dear disciple."

Guangling Douluo spoke word by word, deliberately raising his voice so that Ling Chang'e could hear clearly.

To Ling Chang'e's ears, this was proof of Guangling Douluo's anger and embarrassment.

"No need."

Ling Chang'e gave a sheepish smile and quickly waved her hand in refusal, "There's no need to trouble my beautiful, charming, and noble Master to do it."

"I'll just cool down."

"Master, our task today is to go to Spirit Hall Academy. We shouldn't waste time and make them wait for us."

"We need to be punctual!"

"We cannot be late!"

Listening to Ling Chang'e's righteous words, Guangling Douluo just sneered, looking at her coldly, "Weren't you very cocky just now? Now you're not so arrogant, you can't be arrogant for more than five seconds, little thing."

"Master, your disciple was wrong."

Ling Chang'e immediately begged for mercy. She was someone who could bend and stretch!

"Where were you wrong?"

Guangling Douluo raised an eyebrow. He was still holding Ling Chang'e by her collar, but the force was much less than before.

"I shouldn't have praised Master for being as beautiful as a flower…"

"Master is a true man; he must be handsome enough to make others admire him!"

"In my heart, Master is the most handsome, and no one else has even half of Master's charm!"

Upon hearing this, Guangling Douluo's right eye, which was not covered by ice and snow, flickered with an unusual light, and his tone instantly relaxed as he said, "Really? Little thing, you're not trying to deceive my feelings again, are you?"

"Of course, it's true!"

"How could I possibly deceive Master?!"

"Alright then."

Looking at her innocent expression, Guangling Douluo still put her down, "Let's go, we'll go to Spirit Hall Academy together."

"It's getting late; if we're any later, we'll be late. No one will scold me if I'm late, but you, little thing, might not be so lucky."

Towards the end, Guangling Douluo couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This little thing was going to have a hard time in the coming days.

Because the teachers at Spirit Hall Academy were quite fierce, which would be perfect for curing this little thing's bad temper and setting her straight.

She didn't learn good things but insisted on learning bad ones. This little thing's intelligence wasn't put to good use.

"…"

Ling Chang'e's mouth twitched again.

How helpless.

There was never a peaceful day when she met her eccentric Master.

"Let's go."

Guangling Douluo took Ling Chang'e's small hand and smiled gently at her, "I will only take you to Spirit Hall Academy once; next time, you walk there yourself."

"You need to remember the way."

"My disciple cannot be a scatterbrain."

"…"

A speechless thought once again appeared in Ling Chang'e's mind.

He was treating her to the standard of a superhuman!

She was still a child.

A bad Master harming his disciple!

Other Masters would wish to walk with their disciples more and cherish the time together. But when it came to Guangling Douluo, he would only lead the way once, and not again next time, truly embodying laziness to the core!

Sure enough, handsomeness couldn't be eaten as food. Handsome people really did like to be lazy.

Alas, Ling Chang'e sighed helplessly in her heart.

Despite her thoughts, Ling Chang'e's expression remained calm. She allowed Guangling Douluo to hold her small hand and walk forward, her eyes fixed on the road without blinking. She needed to remember the route there and back.

She couldn't rely on this Master, so she could only rely on herself.

As the saying goes, rely on mountains and mountains fall, rely on people and people fall. Only by relying on oneself is there a way out.

Half an hour later, they finally reached the entrance of the Hall of Offerings. This was mainly because Ling Chang'e's short legs walked slowly, and Guangling Douluo didn't use his spirit power to speed up, just slowly holding her hand and walking.

"Guangling."

Qingluan Douluo's voice came from not far away, his eyes fixed on Guangling Douluo.

The moment Guangling Douluo appeared, Qingluan Douluo's gaze found it difficult to see anyone else.

Their eyes met, and the aura between them instantly changed, making Ling Chang'e click her tongue.

This was too magical.

Thinking about it, it made sense; there was a story between them.

"Do you need me to accompany you?"

Qingluan Douluo gently asked Guangling Douluo, looking at him tenderly.

His remaining tenderness was all given to Guangling Douluo.

"No need."

Guangling Douluo said with an unchanged expression, "I'll bear this glorious matter alone."

"This is my disciple."

"I'm telling you, don't even think about coveting my disciple. No one's words matter, not even Big Brother."

Guangling Douluo was afraid they wouldn't give up, so he specifically added that sentence.

A bunch of smelly things, not doing proper business all day, just wanting to annoy him!

Want to snatch his disciple? No way!

"Master…"

Ling Chang'e opened her mouth with difficulty, saying cautiously, "I think it's better to add another person."

"Master, please pity your gentle and intelligent disciple!"

Ling Chang'e looked at them pitifully, her innocent eyes making their hearts soften involuntarily.

She looked so pitiful!

Guangling Douluo smiled gently at her, "I don't think you're pitiful."

"You were showing off to me earlier, and now you're playing pitiful."

"Alright, for Third Brother's sake, I'll reluctantly agree to your request."

Guangling Douluo said coldly.

The two who knew his tsundere personality didn't speak, planning to take advantage while they could. If they talked any more, Guangling Douluo would definitely change his mind, and that wouldn't be good.

Ling Chang'e snorted coldly in her heart. Guangling Douluo was just a tsundere.

The only one who could control him was Qingluan Douluo.

If Qingluan Douluo didn't intervene, there really would be no way to deal with him!

"Third Brother, she walks too slowly."

As soon as Guangling Douluo's words fell, Qingluan Douluo picked Ling Chang'e up. Then, Qingluan Douluo turned around, took Guangling Douluo's hand, and walked forward.

Their calm demeanor made Ling Chang'e's mouth twitch.

Why did they feel like the three of them looked like a family of three…

This was definitely an illusion!

Ling Chang'e subconsciously denied this possibility, but upon closer thought, something felt off.

Mainly, their auras were too compatible, as if they were one person in perfect sync.

Guangling Douluo didn't even say anything, and Qingluan Douluo instantly understood his meaning.

Wait…

Thinking of the scene she had witnessed before, she decided to remain silent.

She knew nothing!

She was just a child.
