Chapter 34: Beating her kid, Ah Yin won’t be mad, right? An old rabbit eating tender grass!
That night.
[Daddy Douluo]: Family, who can understand this? I met a waste in his dozens who’s only Level 29 and wanted to take me as a Disciple! I’m dying of laughter! Hahahaha!
The message was full of joy between the lines.
Far away at the Blue Tyrant Academy, Liu Erlong was watering flowers.
Upon seeing the message, the watering can almost slipped from her hand.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: A Level 29 Spirit Grandmaster in his dozens? What a waste. Does he know your Master is a Titled Douluo?
She shook her head, finding the matter both absurd and hilarious.
Lin Qingmo, this Heaven-DefyingLittle freak’s Master, was a Titled Douluo with a hundred thousand year spirit ring.
Truly, any random person dares to step forward now.
Spirit Hall.
Inside the Supreme Pontiff’s bedchamber.
Bibi Dong reclined on a soft couch.
Her purple eyes scanned the light screen, her lips curling into a playful arc.
[The Pope Herself]: How bold. Who dares to try and steal Eastern Emperor Douluo’s Disciple?
In the Work-Study Student dormitory.
Xiao Wu was hugging a pillow.
Seeing the message, her ears twitched slightly.
[A Rogue Rabbit]: A Level 29 waste... sounds so familiar.
She tilted her head, trying hard to remember something.
Lin Qingmo had already walked downstairs to the dormitory.
He continued to type happily.
[Daddy Douluo]: It’s that waste GrandmasterYu Xiaogang.
[Daddy Douluo]: Hahaha! Thinking about how he left with a dark face after I shut him down makes me want to laugh.
Xiao Wu’s eyes lit up in realization.
[A Rogue Rabbit]: Oh oh! I was wondering why it sounded so familiar, so it was him.
Meanwhile, Liu Erlong and Bibi Dong, who had just been speaking righteously, fell silent at the same time.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]:... [The Pope Herself]:... Complex emotions were hidden within those ellipses.
Xiao Wu curiously followed up with a question,
[A Rogue Rabbit]: A-Qing, why did Yu Xiaogang come looking for you?
Lin Qingmo recalled the scene from earlier, his smile deepening.
[Daddy Douluo]: It’s because I gave that Little Scoundrel a good beating not long ago. The elder came looking for trouble because the junior got hit; as a teacher, he came to reclaim face.
He paused, then added another sentence.
[Daddy Douluo]: To be honest, beating that Little Scoundrel felt great! I beat him so black and blue that his own mother probably wouldn’t recognize him.
[Grass Mother]:... Ah Yin really wants to say she saw it all.
Seeing this, Liu Erlong’s brow furrowed slightly.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Little Scoundrel? You’re talking about Tang San, right?
She hesitated for a moment before typing out her concern.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: That’s Tang Hao’s son. Aren’t you afraid Tang Hao will come looking for trouble?
Lin Qingmo sneered when he saw the name "Tang Hao."
He walked to the dormitory window, looking out at the darkening sky.
[Daddy Douluo]: Why else? That guy saw me getting close to Xiao Wu and pulled a sour face. I didn’t like the look of him, so I just made a move.
He spoke righteously, without any scruples.
[Daddy Douluo]: Besides—Tang Hao is currently being hunted by Spirit Hall like a stray dog. He’s too busy hiding; how would he dare show his face in public?
The light screen reflected his confident profile.
[Daddy Douluo]: No backing down, just do it!
A youth’s spirit, incredibly flamboyant.
Liu Erlong looked at the screen and shook her head helplessly.
But remembering the Titled DouluoMasterLin Qingmo mentioned... she felt that perhaps this was what you call having backing.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Fine, as long as you know what you’re doing.
She still couldn’t help but remind him.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Don’t be too flashy, lest you bring trouble upon yourself.
Lin Qingmo suddenly thought of something, and his expression became subtle.
[Daddy Douluo]: Right... speaking of which, I just beat up Tang San. Ah Yin won’t be angry, will she?
He scratched his hair, feeling a rare bit of trepidation.
After all, Ah Yin was Tang San’s biological mother... Liu Erlong sent a cold laugh emoji.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Heh, now you think of her? Why didn’t you think of that when you were beating her son?
[The Pope Herself]: Does Ah Yin have any reaction?
She was asking about the Ah Yin by Lin Qingmo’s side.
Lin Qingmo glanced at the grass leaves wrapped around his wrist.
It swayed gently, calm as usual.
[Daddy Douluo]: Hmm... it seems there hasn’t been any reaction so far.
Ah Yin was indeed very calm, even somewhat indifferent.
As if Tang San were just an irrelevant stranger.
[Grass Mother]: He is not Ah Yin’s child.
Ah Yin’s message was short but filled with certainty.
These were her true feelings.
Lin Qingmo had previously spoken in the group about Transmigrators.
He said Tang San had performed Possession on her child’s body.
When Lin Qingmo fought Tang San earlier, Ah Yin had been observing in secret.
Those strange techniques and footwork... indeed resembled the Tang Sect Ultimate ArtsLin Qingmo spoke of.
She felt it quietly, and gradually, the last sliver of hope in her heart dissipated.
Confirmed, that was indeed a Transmigrator.
[The Pope Herself]: Since Ah Yin has no reaction, then there is no need to worry.
[Daddy Douluo]: True enough.
Ah Yin had no reaction even being so close to Tang San... it should be fine.
He jumped onto his bed and crossed his legs.
Suddenly thinking of something else, his eyes lit up.
[Daddy Douluo]: But seriously, I’ve discovered something very interesting!
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: What?
On the other side of the screen, everyone’s curiosity was piqued.
[Daddy Douluo]: According to the plot, Xiao Wu and Tang San should be childhood sweethearts.
He recalled the original work and found the current situation quite amusing.
[Daddy Douluo]: Their relationship should be extremely good, inseparable, with Xiao Wu recognizing Tang San as her brother, but now it’s completely changed!
[Daddy Douluo]: Xiao Wu’s relationship with Tang San is terrible; she looks at him like he’s an enemy.
[Daddy Douluo]: Instead, she’s especially warm to me. She sticks to me all day; the plot deviation is just too big, right?
Under the covers in the Work-Study Student dormitory.
Xiao Wu was curled up, holding the light screen.
Seeing Lin Qingmo’s message, her face instantly turned beet red.
"So... A-Qing noticed too!"
She murmured softly, her eyes curving into crescents.
Her heart felt like a little deer was crashing around inside, thumping loudly.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally gathered her courage.
As "A Rogue Rabbit," she spoke up boldly in the group.
[A Rogue Rabbit]: Ma-maybe... she, she li-likes you?
After sending this message, Xiao Wu suddenly covered her face.
Crimson skin showed through the gaps between her fingers.
Her heart was beating so fast, it felt like it would jump out of her chest.
She stared nervously at the screen, not even blinking.
For fear of missing any reply from Lin Qingmo... Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong looked at the message in the group, her purple eyes narrowing slightly.
"As expected, it’s her."
She had suspected "A Rogue Rabbit" was Xiao Wu before.
Now that Xiao Wu had actively exposed her feelings, it confirmed her guess.
She leaned back on the soft couch, her fingertip lightly tapping the armrest.
Her gaze was fixed on the chat box, waiting for Lin Qingmo’s response.
There was a subtle sense of displeasure in her heart, but she didn’t show it.
Lin Qingmo was stunned when he saw the message.
[Daddy Douluo]: Likes me?
He scratched his head, his expression turning odd.
[Daddy Douluo]: Isn’t that an old rabbit eating tender grass?
When this sentence was sent, the group fell silent instantly.
Xiao Wu’s eyes widened, and she froze.
[A Rogue Rabbit]: O-old rabbit?
She repeated it in disbelief, her ears standing straight up.
Lin Qingmo, however, felt it made more sense the more he thought about it.
[Daddy Douluo]: Yeah, she’s a 100,000-Year Soul Beast transformation. By age, she could be my great-great-great-great-great... grandmother, right?
[Daddy Douluo]: And I’m only six years old. If this isn’t an old rabbit eating tender grass, what is?
Seeing this, Liu Erlong literally facepalmed.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]:...What kind of bizarre logic is this?
She was completely defeated by this train of thought.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: After transformation, Xiao Wu is just a young girl, about the same age as you!
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: What old rabbit eating tender grass... what is going on in your head?
Bibi Dong was also amused and couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
[The Pope Herself]:...Helplessness and amusement were hidden in the ellipsis.
But she was actually quite satisfied with this answer.
Under the covers, Xiao Wu was dazed for a few seconds by Lin Qingmo’s "old rabbit eating tender grass" comment.
Immediately, she kicked her legs huffily, messing up the quilt.
"I’m not old!"
She protested in a low voice, her cheeks as red as ripe fruit.
"Since transforming, I’m only seven, the same age as you!"
"What old rabbit eating tender grass..."
She puffed out her cheeks, then couldn’t help but smile.
"A-Qing is such a big dummy!"
Though she complained, her heart felt sweet.
At least A-Qing didn’t dislike her... that was the best start!
As for Lin Qingmo’s actual thoughts—Xiao Wu was indeed very cute, lively, and spirited.
She was also very clingy, like a little shadow.
But right now, his mind was entirely focused on Cultivating and becoming stronger.
He was thinking about how to hold onto the thighs of the big shots in the group.
Dating?
That was a matter for the future.
Besides, why would two seven-year-olds think about such things?
He shook his head, tossing those thoughts away.
The interaction in the Chat Group continued.
Liu Erlong continued to roast Lin Qingmo for being romantically obtuse.
Bibi Dong chimed in occasionally with a lazy playfulness.
Ah Yin remained sparse with words, quiet as moonlight.
Xiao Wu went along with whatever Lin Qingmo said.
The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant, filled with warmth.
Outside the window, the night deepened, and stars dotted the sky.
Lin Qingmo turned off the light screen and closed his eyes.
Tomorrow would be a new day.
He thought, a peaceful smile hanging on his lips.
The wind slipped in through the window crack, gently brushing his cheek.
Faint insect chirps came from afar, like humming a lullaby.
Everything was just right.
