Chapter 23
Alas, my talent is still too poor. Long Yunmei, Xuan Yi: Does Long Yan mean it?
[Ding, host, you currently have 2000 emotion points, which can be converted into 400 credits.]
[Adding to your original 300 points, for a total of 700 points, the price of 'Dragon Language Mastery' is 500 points.]
【Have you confirmed your purchase?】
Shen Shu'an hesitated slightly. 700 points, but if she included the 100 points she owed, she would only have 100 points left after buying "Dragon Language Mastery".
This is what they mean by "earning points is always hard, spending points is always fun."
But will you regret it after you've had your fun?
But just as Shen Shu'an was still hesitating, he saw that Long Yunmei, who was lecturing in front of him, had started to speak in a cryptic, cryptic way.
Shen Shu'an gritted her teeth: "I'll buy it, okay?!"
[Ding, OK, congratulations host for successfully purchasing 'Dragon Language Mastery'. It has been automatically equipped. Your current account balance is 200 points.]
Shen Shuan felt a pang of heartache, but before she could even carefully examine the door, the α and β sounds she heard instantly transformed into 1, 2, and 3.
Remember us, 101kanshu.com
Shen Shuan was startled, then his eyes flashed with a sharp light as he looked intently at Long Yunmei, who was giving a lecture.
Wow, it's really awesome to have this on!
The effect of this "Dragon Language Proficiency" is well worth her many days of hard work and sweat!
Immediately, Shen Shuan puffed out her chest confidently, wagged her little tail, and followed Long Yunmei's rhythm without any pressure.
"Aww."
"Aunt Mei, I know this. The formation requires this and then this, right?"
"what?"
Long Yunmei was interrupted, but she wasn't angry. She listened carefully to Shen Shuan's speech and soon realized that it wasn't simple.
She was startled and looked at the confident, academically gifted Shen Shu'an with a look of surprise and doubt.
"Shu An, you... understood all of that?"
If she remembers correctly, didn't An An have a particularly hard time learning the Dragon Language?
Today's lesson was simply meant to broaden the horizons of these two little ones.
How come you actually understood it?
This doesn't make sense, does it?
Xuan Yi also showed surprise. Compared to yesterday, Shen Shu'an's performance today can be described as a complete transformation.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi couldn't help but ponder deeply: "Could it be that her talent is truly that terrifying?"
"Even in something you're not good at, you can make rapid progress in just one or two days of research?"
Thinking about it, Xuan Yi couldn't help but frown slightly.
[Beep, Long Yunmei's surprise, doubt, and shock have been detected. 88 emotion points have been collected.]
[Beep, Xuan Yi detected... 188 emotion points collected!]
Shen Shuan felt a surge of pleasure, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile, which she simply couldn't control.
She smiled slightly, meeting Long Yunmei's gaze from ahead: "Aww!"
"Aunt Mei, I understand now! The person I spent the whole night studying the basics of Dragon Language is no longer the same!"
As he spoke, the little white dragon looked apologetic and lowered his head slightly, saying shyly, "Awooooo."
"I'm still too inexperienced, Aunt May. I didn't grasp things quickly enough. I apologize for making a fool of myself in front of you the other day."
Upon hearing this, Long Yunmei was shocked and leaned back in surprise.
"??" Xuan Yi's eyes widened in surprise.
Two people: Long Yan?
What does it mean to have too little talent?
What do you mean by "understanding something after studying hard all night"? Are you kidding me?
In an instant, the entire cave fell silent, with only the soft breathing of the three people.
[Ding, host, we have detected that Long Yunmei and Xuan Yi are greatly shocked. 666 emotion points have been collected!]
[Host! You're too strong!]
Shen Shu'an chuckled inwardly, "Heh heh, Aunt Mei, Xuan Yi, feel the full power of Versailles!"
"He can manipulate emotional values with ease!"
Whether it's the title of genius, the reality of genius, emotional value, points, status, fame, fortune, money...
I, Shen Shu'an, want them all!
"Awoo."
"Aunt Mei, Xuan Yi, why aren't you saying anything?"
Seeing that both dragons were silent, the little white dragon tilted its head, revealing an adorable look of confusion.
Long Yunmei: "..."
Xuan Yi: "..."
A few seconds later, Long Yunmei composed herself, closed her eyes briefly, then opened them again to regain her composure as an elder and continued teaching.
However, neither she nor Xuan Yi could calm down for a long time.
All I can say is that Shen Shuan's move was simply too much of a game-changer!
……
At noon, during lunch break, inside Shen Shu'an's cave.
Nian Qiuhua and Shen Wuming looked at the two little dragons sitting in a row, though they had smiles on their faces.
However, a hint of doubt still lingered in their eyes.
Nian Qiuhua nudged Shen Wuming with her elbow and transmitted her voice, "That dragon who just arrived, did he call this little black dragon 'Your Highness'?"
Shen Wuming gasped, clutching his ribs where he had been elbowed, and replied telepathically, "Yes, good Qiuhua, the Dragon Clan did mention His Highness when they came this morning."
As he spoke, Shen Wuming looked at the little black dragon, whose eating habits were clearly different from his own daughter's and who seemed much more reserved, and continued to recall.
"The old man appeared without a trace, and disappeared again in an instant after he finished speaking. He was truly unpredictable and possessed profound Taoist magic."
"However, didn't the current Dragon King ascend to the upper realm long ago?"
"The ascension ceremony that day was attended by all the major powers in the Yuanhe Realm, including our Qingcheng, which sent a representative."
Nian Qiuhua nodded in agreement, exchanged a glance with Shen Wuming, and the two simultaneously transmitted their thoughts—
"Posthumous child?"
"illegitimate child?"
Nian Qiuhua glared at Shen Wuming speechlessly, "It's all His Highness's fault, private, private, private, you pig-brain!"
Xuan Yi lowered his eyes and chewed the food in his mouth carefully. He wasn't oblivious to the exchange of glances between Shen Shu'an's parents, but he didn't feel offended.
This is nothing.
On the day he returned to Dragon Island, he was observed by dragons all day long, and was also thoroughly examined by their divine sense from time to time.
The Shen couple merely glanced at them, showing no disdain; it was nothing to them.
Most importantly, Shen Wuming's cooking is indeed too delicious. To be frank, Xuan Yi has never eaten such delicious food in the past ten years.
Xuan Yi chewed and chewed, then demurely finished the last sip of soup, restraining himself from slurping and licking the bowl like Shen Shu'an beside him.
Shen Shuan squinted her eyes in satisfaction, raised her little head, and gave her father a starry-eyed look.
"Aww!"
"Dad, another bowl!"
After spending a few days together, Shen Wuming had become quite familiar with Shen Shuan's habit of adding extra food to his meals.
Seeing this, he happily stepped forward as usual and poured Shen Shuan another full bowl.
Afterwards, he didn't forget to ask Xuan Yi, "This... An An's classmate, would you like another bowl?"
Upon hearing this form of address and meeting Shen Wuming's open gaze, Xuan Yi felt a slight stirring in his heart and nodded, "Aww."
"Thank you, Uncle."
Shen Wuming couldn't understand the words, but he could see them clearly. His smile widened, and he served Xuan Yi a full bowl.
Hehe, look at the food he made, even the Dragon Prince said it was delicious!
Once we get back to Qingcheng, should we expand the family business? Like, perhaps a restaurant or something?
While eating, Shen Shu'an asked the system in her mind, "Duck, how many emotion points did I gain this morning?"
[Ding, host, total 940 emotion points.]
Shen Shu'an paused in her chewing, then raised her head. "Wait, isn't it 946 points?"
"Hmph, Duck Duck has given herself away, hasn't she? You still say you didn't steal my emotional points?"
[Adding to your original 300 points, for a total of 700 points, the price of 'Dragon Language Mastery' is 500 points.]
【Have you confirmed your purchase?】
