After analyzing the spotted blue fish demons’ patterns, coupled with the little crocodile dragon’s rapid improvement in strength, eradicating the spotted blue fish demons was only a matter of time.
Scatter them first, then attack, taking them down one by one. This made the intelligent group of fish turn into a bunch of stupid fish that didn’t know any better. What was left was purely to chase and hunt them down. After all, spotted blue fish demons were naturally unable to contend against a species like the crocodile dragon.
With his Academy mission completed, Zhu Minglang obtained a grain of gold sand.
To reward the little crocodile dragon, Zhu Minglang specially went to Phoenix Falls Town, planning on buying some fresh and high quality silkworms from mulberry farmers.
He also bought some fresh nectar. Judging by the state of little Baiqi’s ice pupa, it shouldn’t be many days before it emerged.
“Ah, how come it took you half a month to crawl out from the lake?” the tanned peach girl from the bridge asked.
Zhu Minglang looked at her. A bright smile gradually widened as he said, “You still owe me a basket of peaches, girl.”
The peach girl was stunned for a moment, before realizing there really was an Academy emblem on his chest.
“So you really are a student of the Dragon Tamers Academy! Then, where’s your dragon?” the peach girl asked.
“That’s none of your concern. I want the freshest, biggest, and juiciest peaches.” Zhu Minglang immediately felt happy. The tiny bit of grievance he suffered back then was all washed away!
“Okay, okay, you win. I have plenty of peaches at home. Come to my place to get them when I’m done with selling for today,” the peach girl answered straightforwardly.
“Sure. Right, do you know where I can buy silkworms? And where is there some good nectar for sale?” Zhu Minglang inquired.
“My house does,” the peach girl said.
Zhu Minglang looked at her in confusion, saying, “Doesn’t your family sell peaches?”
“Can’t farmers have a clan style? My parents plant and sell peaches, my Third Brother rears silkworms, my Seventh Uncle harvests nectar. There’s no agricultural product our family doesn’t sell!” the peach girl said confidently.
“Alright, alright, your family sells everything. If the quality is good, then I’ll bring my business to you in the future,” Zhu Minglang answered agreeably.
“I’ll say this first; our family doesn’t sell on credit,” the peach girl said.
Zhu Minglang was bewildered. Since when did he look like someone who would renege on a debt? He immediately said, annoyed, “All tabs will be paid immediately!”
After agreeing to prices with the peach girl, Zhu Minglang let out a long sigh in relief.
He had finally settled his two babies’ initial ration problems!
“Handsome brother, you must be short on money, bargaining on prices for just this bit of items. Look at that pleasure boat at the riverside. Actually, there aren’t only beautiful women inside; there are also pretty men. If you are indeed in urgent need of money, you can go give it a try there. After all, you look pretty decent yourself, and you might catch the eyes of those lonely widowed old women. I don’t want to see you look as helpless as you did when we first met,” the peach girl gave Zhu Minglang a well-intentioned reminder.
“????” Zhu Minglang pressed on his chest, feeling a dull pain.
He was defeated again!
How painful!
“Niannian, did you leave some honey peaches for me?” a gentle and beautiful voice came from behind him.
Just hearing this voice made one feel a tingle in their heart. It was like they could imagine all the goodness of the voice’s owner.
“Yes, yes.” The peach girl’s voice suddenly turned sweet. She immediately took out a delicately packed bag of big peaches and smiled, saying, “Sister is really so pretty! I feel my face blushing and my heart beating faster, even though I’m a girl.”
Zhu Minglang’s eyes immediately widened in disbelief. This girl with a wicked tongue turned into a sweet thing all of a sudden!
“Actually Sister likes soft and gentle girls better.” The woman’s voice was clearly proper, but her words sounded especially charming.
Not only that, her voice sounded rather familiar.
Zhu Minglang couldn’t help his curiosity, and turned to look at the woman speaking.
This glance made Zhu Minglang twitch like a jolt of electricity had gone through him.
Just by the voice alone one could tell that she was a beauty. To his surprise, her appearance was even prettier than he had imagined. Zhu Minglang wasn’t able to come back to himself for a moment, staring blankly at her for a while!
The woman had taken notice of Zhu Minglang’s gaze as well. She only showed a faint smile, a polite smile purely based on her good upbringing, before continuing to converse with the peach girl, Niannian.
“Did you come specially to visit me?” Zhu Minglang tried his best to speak coolly to the woman, even though her beauty had indeed made his heart beat faster.
Li Yunzi. The woman standing in front of him was clearly Li Yunzi!
Her dazzlingly beautiful eyes were like a galaxy, her full lips like honey. Zhu Minglang had spent an entire night with her; how could he possibly not recognize her? Even if her makeup today was quite different than usual, like a young lady from a noble house, her unique and outstanding appearance had truly left too deep of an impression.
“Do we know each other?” Her gaze fell back onto Zhu Minglang’s face in a very even tone.
“This…” Zhu Minglang’s expression turned awkward at her question.
-Does Li Yunzi not want others to know of what happened between us and wants us to pretend to be strangers from now on?-
“Handsome brother, your flirting skills are really lower than an ugly toad’s.” The peach girl, Niannian, transitioned naturally between her sweet demeanor and wicked tongue, saying, “Sister Nan Lingsha, you’re too charming. Even this handsome brother with mental problems can’t help but be attracted to you.”
“Enough, enough. I’m going back to the Academy.” The woman smiled, and walked off to the white stone bridge carrying a bag of honey peached in the direction of the Academy.
Zhu Minglang looked at Li Yunzi’s back, his face colored with confusion.
“What did you call her earlier?” Zhu Minglang turned around to ask the peach girl Niannian.
“Nan Lingsha! Are you actually a student of the Dragon Tamers Academy? You haven’t even heard of a great beauty like Sister Nan Lingsha?” the peach girl Niannian asked doubtfully.
“I’ve always studied on my own, and I don’t know much about the situation in the Academy. She’s called Nan Lingsha, and is from Lichuan’s Dragon Tamers Academy?” Zhu Minglang inquired.
“I say, you’d better not hold onto any fantasies for Sister Nan Lingsha. She’s the Young Miss of the Nan Family, noble like a phoenix! You’d be better off spending your time thinking on how to keep your life together. Don’t think that you’ve made it just because you entered the Dragon Tamers Academy! There are plenty of students who were frustrated and went crazy because their spiritling didn’t dragonize,” the peach girl Niannian said.
“The Nan Family? Did I really make a mistake?” Zhu Minglang was baffled at this moment.
Even though that woman’s temperament and the gentleness exuding from her eyes were somewhat different, her appearance was clearly that of Li Yunzi’s!
-Nan Lingsha…
-Nan Lingsha.. I seem to recall the Li Clan’s patriarch mentioning this name before.
-Are they sisters?
-But sisters don’t look so alike!-
Zhu Minglang shook his head. He was probably thinking about Li Yunzi too much, and had mistaken someone else for her under the charming sunshine…
