The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

"Alright, alright, I know, it's not your fault, Master's wife!"

Chen Xuan gently held Long Yuyan in his arms, comforting her tenderly.

But emotions are something that are hard to let go of once they come. The more he comforted her, the more excited Long Yuyan became, clinging tightly to Chen Xuan to release her emotions.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan chuckled to himself.

"Yu Gang, Yu Gang, you treat truly beautiful women so poorly, don't blame me for that!"

He simply stretched out his arms and, with a little effort, lifted Long Yuyan up in a princess carry.

The latter's crying stopped abruptly, and she unconsciously wrapped her arms around Chen Xuan's neck.

She was startled by this action and instantly regained her senses.

"Xuan, Xuan'er, what are you doing? Quickly, put your master's wife down!"

When Chen Xuan saw that she had regained consciousness, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

'Never mind, it's only the first day, no rush.'

"Are you going to cry or not?"

"No, stop crying! Be good, hurry up... no, why are you going to my room?!"

Long Yuyan struggled frantically in his arms, but Chen Xuan, seeing that she was awake, didn't dare to hit her to make her behave. He could only silently carry her back to the room.

After settling Long Yuyan in, Chen Xuan walked to the door:

"Seeing you so sad just now made me feel sad too, so I don't want you to continue to be sad, Master's wife. I was being presumptuous just now."

"No, it's alright. It's me who embarrassed myself in front of you, Master's wife. Look, your clothes are all wet from crying. Take them off and give them to me, I'll help you wash them!" Long Yuyan said, her face flushed.

"Uh, no need for that. I can use my spiritual energy to force out the moisture."

"Why are you being so polite with me!" Long Yuyan ignored her and with a wave of her hand, Chen Xuan's clothes flew towards her.

"Don't tell anyone about what happened today, understand?"

"Well, nothing happened today, I didn't see anything!" Chen Xuan said with a smile.

Long Yuyan blushed instantly.

Isn't this just burying your head in the sand?

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan burst out laughing. He felt a secret delight looking at Long Yuyan's shy demeanor.

"Master's wife, you're so adorable!"

As if possessed, Chen Xuan uttered those words.

Upon hearing this, Long Yuyan blushed even more and gave Chen Xuan a reproachful glare.

"You're always making fun of your master's wife!"

Chen Xuan laughed heartily, then turned and left.

Watching Chen Xuan leave, Long Yuyan's intelligence prevailed.

"What did I do...! I went over there to see him embarrassed and then tease him, why did I end up being the one who made a fool of myself?!"

"But he understands me so well, he understands all my hardships... He even carried me into the house just now, this is not something an ordinary master and disciple should do!"

"Xuan'er... he's really toxic! I should try to have as little contact with him as possible in the future, otherwise... I'm really afraid I'll do something irreversible!"

After saying that, she slowly got up and walked to a mirror.

Even if the person in the mirror has been crying for a long time, they still look very cold and aloof, neither charming nor gentle.

It's fair to say that she's not cute at all.

"Xuan'er said I'm cute, am I really... cute?"

She muttered this to herself, then couldn't help but look at the bed, where clothes still smelled of Chen Xuan. Her cheeks flushed again.

"Ugh, this little... guy is such a headache!"

As she spoke, she folded Chen Xuan's clothes and placed them on her bedside table, as if they were a precious treasure.

On Chen Xuan's side.

After returning to his room, he began to think about his next plan.

Although he had just successfully won over Long Yuyan's goodwill, he still needed more time and opportunities to completely capture her heart.

Furthermore, Long Yuyan is a smart woman and has deep feelings for Yu Gang; she won't be easily won over by him.

Therefore, they needed some time to settle things, and Chen Xuan decided to put this matter aside for now and focus on his cultivation.

During this time, he has accumulated a lot of experience, which he needs to digest.

So, in the days that followed, Chen Xuan devoted himself to cultivating, in addition to contributing peach blossoms.

For the first few days, Long Yuyan didn't dare to see him at all, and kept avoiding something. It wasn't until a few days later that the two officially met, but not alone, with Yu Gang also present.

"Xuan'er, you've worked hard cultivating. Have some spiritual fruit!"

"Is it a peach? Or a grape?" Chen Xuan smiled slightly and stopped meditating.

In fact, he wasn't cultivating at all; he was just consolidating his own realm. The real cultivation was for the main characters like Qingwu and the others.

Hmm... Long Yuyan is just an appetizer; Zhu Zhu is already in my mouth, ready to be eaten at any time.

"No, that's not it! This is a special spiritual fruit of my Long family. Eating it can strengthen your body! You're a doctor, so your physical condition must not be very good. Just eat more of my spiritual fruit." Long Yuyan glared at Chen Xuan reproachfully.

"Oh, is that so! As long as it's Master's wife's spiritual fruit, I'll definitely eat it all!"

Upon seeing this, Yu Gang frowned.

He felt something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Perhaps it was because he felt bad about giving the health-enhancing fruit to Chen Xuan.

"The dean will arrive tomorrow. Pack your things. Once you get to the academy, we'll need to prepare for the academy competition. Some members might get injured, and that'll depend on you."

"Don't worry, teacher, I will do my best!"

"Well, Sirui and the others were trained by me personally, so the chances of them getting injured aren't very high. We basically won't need you. But just in case, that's why I'm taking you with me."

Yu Gang suddenly said this in a contradictory way.

It wasn't that he looked down on Chen Xuan, but rather that he had always felt a certain aversion to him from the bottom of his heart, though he couldn't quite explain why.

When he saw Chen Xuan's confident demeanor, he couldn't help but want to say something to discourage him, which made Long Yuyan frown.

Soon, the next day arrived, and Zhou Kai, the dean of Monster Academy, rushed over, and the Zhang family members all came out to greet him.

"Dean Zhou's presence is truly an honor for my Zhang family, hahaha!" Zhang Wei greeted him with a smile.

"Old Zhang, you're being too polite. We've known each other for so many years! It's not that serious!" Zhou Kai laughed heartily, as if the previous conflict had vanished.

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhou Kai glanced around and spotted Chen Xuan standing behind Zhang Wei.

"This must be Chen Xuan. He is indeed a handsome and talented man with an extraordinary appearance, hahaha!"

Chen Xuan stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "Hello, Dean. I am Chen Xuan, your newly accepted student. I hope you will take good care of me in the future!"

Zhou Kai looked Chen Xuan up and down with interest: "Hmm, you're quite good. You're clearly a promising talent!"

"Of course! They come from the Zhang family, so they're bound to have a bright future!" Zhang Wei said with a smile.

Zhou Kai did not speak, but instead looked at Zhang Wei calmly.

You can tell what he's up to the moment he opens his mouth.
