Chapter 73 - A Practical Guide (1/2)

A/N: Yes, they did do the culture dance if you were wondering.

As the light of dawn shone in from the window, Huang Yu's eyes fluttered open. With the support of both his arms, he pushed gently on the bed he was sleeping to push himself into an upright position, making sure not to wake up the person sleeping beside him as he did so.

Sitting upright on the bed, Huang Yu scratched the back of his head as memories the previous night rushed into him all at once.

It was a wild night, and Gu Yue was even wilder. Huang Yu could wholeheartedly admit that if he hadn't been tempering his body with physical energy all this time, he would probably have been suċkėd dry by the tempting seductress next to him.

He shifted his gaze to look at Gu Yue, a smile appearing on his face as he did so. He stroked Gu Yue's soft, luscious hair gently before he got off the bed.

It took a few steps for him to arrive at the bathroom. Last night had been a marathon and he was still hot and sweaty from it.

One quick shower and a brushing of the teeth later, Huang Yu emerged from the bathroom wearing a pair of short pants and completely fresh, as if he hadn't only slept two hours last night.

Closing the bathroom door, Huang Yu was surprised as he was greeted by an awake Gu Yue sitting upright on the bed.

Most of her body was covered by the blanket they had slept in, but her two ȧssets were in full view for him to admire at this moment.

Walking over to her, a smile appeared on his face. ”Good morning,” he greeted.

Gu Yue rubbed her eyes a few times before she replied. ”Good morning.”

Huang Yu sat down beside her and held her hand. ”Do you want to get something to eat? I can get some room service.”

A nod in affirmation and a soft ”mm” was the answer he got from that question.

A quick call to the reception and around 15 minutes later, the doorbell to the hotel room rang, announcing the arrival of their breakfast. Gu Yue was in the bath so Huang Yu was the one to open the door to receive the food.

Huang Yu gave the server a tip before he took the plates of food from him. The server didn't ask any questions and just swiftly left even though he was inwardly curious about why the shower was running.

When Gu Yue emerged from the shower, she was fully dressed but her hair was still a bit wet. However, this problem was quickly solved with a quick usage of her elemental powers.

Huang Yu gave Gu Yue a peck on the lips before he said, ”Breakfast is here.”

”Then let's eat,” Gu Yue said with a smile on her face.

As they began to eat, a sense of satisfaction appeared in Gu Yue's heart.

'I wouldn't mind if the days just went on like this forever,'

In the dining hall, Xie Xie and the others were having their own breakfast at this time. They hadn't seen Huang Yu and Gu Yue after last night, and naturally, with them being still fifteen, gossips began springing up in their little group.

”Are Big Sis and Huang Yu going to cross the line? They're just so cute together!!” Xu Xiaoyan said in a soft yet high-pitched voice.

Hearing this, a wry expression appeared on Xie Xie's face. ”It can't be. They're still too young! Also, aren't relationships banned in the outer court?”

Xu Xiaoyan snorted. ”Big Sis and Huang Yu are definitely good enough to be in the inner court though. Didn't you see that Teacher Wu and Elder Cai technically gave their tacit agreement by keeping quiet last night?”

A strange expression instantly flashed across Xie Xie's face as he turned to Yuanen. Unfortunately, before he could say anything, Yuanen shut him down.

”Don't even think about it.”

Xie Xie's expression turned downcast instantly as everyone at the table laughed at him.

”Hey guys…” came a weak voice.

Those words suddenly broke everyone out of their laughter as they turned to the source of the voice. In front of them was the truly haggard figure of Tang Wulin. Dark bags drooped under his eyes and his skin was pale as the dead. His steps were slow and sluggish, not a hint of energy within his usual energetic body.

”Captain! Are you ok?” Everyone in the Shrek Academy group present at the table got up from their seats as they went to help him out to the table.

”It's nothing. I just ran into some trouble cultivating last night, so I don't feel that well right now.” Tang Wulin said in a half-dead voice.

Things didn't quite go so well for him after that. He was tossed and pressed down deep into the vast sea, as Mu Ye wanted to help him achieve the Body Sect's Cultivation Method.
