Douluo: The Unrivaled Demon Lord

Chapter 52: Parents Arrive, Treasonous Thoughts (Please Read!)
Before he knew it, more than half of Shu Yan's first academic year in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy had passed.

Now Shu Yan's soul power level has reached level 49, only one step away from becoming a Soul King.

Shu Junyou and the others who went out to sea to hunt the Sea-Devouring Whale King have also returned safely. Everything went smoothly. With the help of Tianyang Douluo, a senior at level 97, it is difficult for any accidents to occur.

Absorbing the ninth ring of 100,000 years was not too difficult for Shu Junyou. After the absorption was completed, his soul power directly reached the 92nd level, which was a great start for his cultivation in the Titled Douluo realm.

Shu Yan was also very happy when he heard the news. The stronger his family was and the deeper its background was, the more confident he would be in the outside world. But at the same time, after enjoying the benefits and conveniences brought by the family, he also indirectly took on a heavy responsibility. This was true for Shu Junyou and Shu Yan as well.

The forces or families at the top often only want to climb higher, and as the core figures among them, whether they are outstanding and powerful is closely related to the honor and disgrace of the family. This is a good thing, but it is not entirely a good thing.

However, to Shu Yan's surprise, just a few days after the letter was delivered, Lingdou City sent him another surprise.

……

Shu Yan was also surprised to learn that his parents had arrived in Shrek City, but despite his surprise, he quickly accepted the reality. After notifying Han Ruoruo, Shu Yan prepared to go and greet his parents.

The inner courtyard of Shrek Academy does not allow outsiders to enter at will, but Shu Junyou has a special identity. He was once a student in the inner courtyard and even one of the Shrek Seven Devils of that year. Even though he has graduated and taken over the family, he can still enter the inner courtyard directly.

As his wife, Yu Bingyan would naturally not be stopped outside. Yan Shaozhe personally came out to greet her. This honor was extremely rare.

The elders had something to say to each other, so naturally, the younger generations like Shu Yan could only wait.

But not long after, Yu Bingyan walked out alone and then came in front of Shu Yan.

After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Yu Bingyan felt a little emotional when she saw Shu Yan, who had obviously matured a little. She opened her red lips slightly and then whispered:

"How have you been spending the past six months at Shrek Academy?"

Shu Yan chuckled and nodded, looking at Han Ruoruo who was not far away, and then said:
"With Sister Ruoruo taking care of me, it's hard for me to do anything else."

Yu Bingyan looked back and forth between the two of them with interest, then she waved her hand. Han Ruoruo, who was not far away, immediately understood and walked over obediently.

"Long time no see, Auntie..."

Han Ruoruo greeted softly, with a hint of envy and nervousness in her eyes.

She was very confident about her appearance, but she still felt ashamed when facing Yu Bingyan.

It is undeniable that the owners of angel martial spirits, regardless of gender, are all people with outstanding looks, and Yu Bingyan's appearance is even more outstanding. Han Ruoruo has seen Jiang Nannan, the most beautiful girl in the outer courtyard. Her beauty is still one in a million, but Yu Bingyan's beauty is even better than Jiang Nannan.

If Jiang Nannan's beauty is gentle and charming, then Yu Bingyan is sacred, noble and inviolable. Her appearance is extremely aggressive, and even a change in her eyes is enough to put people under great pressure.

"Yes, I didn't have a good talk with you when you returned to Lingdou City a few years ago, but this time I have the chance..."

Yu Bingyan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and then spoke softly.

Han Ruoruo probably guessed what Yu Bingyan wanted to talk to her about, so she just nodded slightly and didn't say anything more.

"Let's go. Junyou still needs to talk to His Majesty Mingfeng for a while. Let's go for a walk along the Sea God Lake. When we came here, we saw that the scenery here is quite good. At least it is much better than Lingdou City."

Yu Bingyan greeted the two of them and then walked towards the road not far away.

Shu Yan and Han Ruoruo exchanged a glance, then followed closely behind.

Walking on the familiar path, Yu Bingyan looked at the surrounding buildings, and then asked suddenly:

"Where have you two come now?"

Shu Yan and Han Ruoruo were both stunned by the question, but then Shu Yan was the first to come back to his senses. He said helplessly:

"Mom, isn't it a bad idea to ask this?"

Yu Bingyan glanced at him, then chuckled:
"Okay, I'm just asking. You two should take care of yourselves. As elders, we won't interfere too much."

"But there's one thing I hope you remember: don't have children too soon. For both of you, cultivation is the most important thing right now. Sister Yue and I aren't ready to take care of grandchildren yet. It's perfectly normal for young people to indulge in pleasure, and Ruoruo happens to be at that age where she's passionate, so many things are unavoidable... You can do whatever you want within reason, but be sensible. Understand?"

The surroundings seemed to fall into a strange silence for a moment. Han Ruoruo was so embarrassed that she almost covered her face and ran away. Shu Yan said speechlessly after coming to his senses:
"Mom, please restrain yourself. How can you teach a child like that? Besides, Sister Ruoruo and I haven't reached that stage yet..."

Yu Bingyan snorted lightly, then said indifferently:

"It's only a matter of time. In a few years, you can choose a time to return to Lingdou City. Our two families will first handle the engagement matters, and then hold the wedding after you both graduate from the Inner Court. That's the perfect time for you to gradually get involved in family affairs. After our two families unite, to be honest, even if you want to sit on the throne of emperor, it's not impossible to consider it..."

"Anyway, the current emperor's sons are all useless wastes. Letting them become emperors will only lead the empire down the path of decline. What Douling needs most right now is a powerful and independent emperor. Even if you don't want to take the throne for the time being, your father is fully worthy of that position. By then, you will also be the crown prince. Once the domestic situation is completely stabilized, that position will still be yours."

Yu Bingyan brought the originally non-serious topic to another shocking one in just a few words. Shu Yan and Han Ruoruo's expressions changed slightly, but they just listened quietly, and no one took the initiative to speak.

After a long silence, Shu Yan said softly:

"Mom, let's talk about these things later. It's too early to talk about them now."

The curve of Yu Bingyan's mouth rose a little higher. She stared straight at Shu Yan and then said word by word:

"You really have this idea."

Shu Yan: “…”

"What do you mean I have this idea too? What on earth have you been planning these past few years? Why did you suddenly turn your attention to this? Do you also want to experience what it's like to be the mother of the nation?"

Shu Yan rubbed his brows, a hint of doubt in his voice.

Snapped--

Yu Bingyan slapped Shu Yan on the head, and then said unhappily:
"What are you thinking about? It's hard to explain this matter in a short time. Let's talk about it after your father comes."

"Okay, you two, walk with me and tell me about your recent situation..."

Shu Yan rubbed the back of his head, and together with Han Ruoruo, who had recovered from the shock and was now thoughtful, he followed Yu Bingyan and walked away...
