Zhi Xia, who used to be shy and timid, has now become exceptionally cheerful and lively. She poses questions to Gu Wenbo without any hesitation.

"Young Master Gu, is the Dean really that amazing?" Her voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement and admiration, and her clear eyes were brimming with curiosity.

Gu Wenbo nodded with a smile, his tone full of respect: "Of course he's amazing! Dean Sang Gucheng, not only has his cultivation reached the peak of the Spirit Emperor realm, but he has also mastered the three elements of fire, wood, and ice spiritual power, which is extremely rare on the continent. Not to mention that he is also a seventh-grade alchemist, capable of refining countless rare pills, and is also a sacred beast tamer. Wouldn't you say that such achievements are extraordinary and extremely powerful?"

After hearing this, Zhixia nodded her little head repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, her eyes sparkling as if stars were shining. "Amazing! Absolutely amazing!"

Then, she turned around with a proud look on her face and looked at Lu Lingxi Yao beside her, her eyes full of admiration and pride, "My young lady is also very capable. It's really enviable that she can be taken as a disciple by such an amazing dean!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi Yao smiled gently and indulgently, without saying anything more, as if she had tacitly agreed with what Zhi Xia had said.

"We've arrived at Phoenix Forest Garden."

As soon as Gu Boyu finished speaking, one after another unimaginably luxurious mansion came into view.

This Phoenix Forest Garden is grand in scale and exquisitely designed. It is surrounded not only by green trees but also by a profusion of flowers. Neatly trimmed flower bushes line both sides of the road, and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of flowers and the freshness of grass and trees, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Wow...what a beautiful house!

Zhi Xia's gaze was instantly drawn to it, and she couldn't help but murmur a soft exclamation. Before she could finish speaking, she had already taken a step forward. However, just as she was about to step in, an invisible and solid barrier appeared out of thin air and gently bounced her back.

Ouch! That hurts!

Zhi Xia instinctively covered her head with both hands, her brows furrowing slightly as pain shot through her forehead, her face filled with surprise and confusion.

"I'm sorry! It was my oversight. I forgot to remind you that only those who possess an exclusive jade pendant bestowed by the Dean or Elders can enter Phoenix Forest Garden. I'm truly sorry for the trouble this has caused you!"

Gu Wenbo's voice was low and self-reproachful. He gently raised his hand, his fingertips dancing with mysterious spiritual energy, like a ray of sunlight in the morning light, slowly brushing across Zhi Xia's smooth forehead. The small bump that had bulged out gradually disappeared under the soothing effect of his spiritual energy.

Zhi Xia gently shook her head, a warm smile blooming on her lips. "It's okay, it was just a little accident. Look, I'm completely fine now!"

At this moment, Zhixia's face was flushed with a faint blush. This was the first time she had been in such close contact with a boy. Her heart was pounding, her cheeks were burning, and even the air was filled with a subtle emotion.

Looking at Zhixia's slightly shy face, Gu Wenbo felt a flutter in his heart. After he finished the treatment, he didn't have time to say anything more and hurriedly turned around and left in a hurry as if he were escaping.

Lu Lingxi watched Gu Wenbo's figure gradually disappear into the distance, a playful smile curving her lips. She murmured to herself, "It seems that our little Zhixia is about to usher in the first spring of her life."

Zhi Xia watched Gu Boyu's receding figure until it disappeared at the end of the road before she came to her senses, slowly turned around, took Lu Lingxi's arm, and said softly, "Miss, let's go in!"

Lu Lingxi nodded slightly, and the two walked side by side, leisurely stepping into the gate of Phoenix Forest Garden.

The interior of Phoenix Forest Garden is even more spacious than it appears from the outside. It's like a maze, with crisscrossing paths and numerous courtyards. Those courtyards with plaques already hanging up are probably already inhabited.

Zhi Xia and Lu Lingxi walked slowly along the stone path, passing one courtyard after another. Each place seemed to reveal a different charm, but without exception, they were all already occupied.

Until they reached the end of the path, a particularly tranquil courtyard came into view. Unlike the surrounding courtyards that were already "owned," this courtyard, though without a plaque, exuded an indescribable attraction, as if silently inviting them.

Just as Lu Lingxi was overjoyed and was about to step forward to see if there was still a chance to choose, several clear characters miraculously appeared on the plaque in front of the courtyard gate—Lu Lingxi.

"This……"

Lu Lingxi Yao froze on the spot, the faint smile on her lips suddenly freezing, her eyes showing both surprise and a bit of amusement.

She had thought that among so many courtyards, she would at least have the right to choose, but she did not expect that her master had already made arrangements in secret and directly assigned her a place to live. This sudden "forced residence" made her laugh out loud, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Although this residence cannot compare with Nalan Rongzhi's mansion in terms of scale and luxury, it has its own simple and warm charm.

Although the courtyard was not large, it appeared exceptionally spacious and bright. In the center of the courtyard, a small corner could be used as a medicinal herb garden. With a slight thought from Lu Lingxi Yao and a light wave of her fingertips, the seemingly ordinary but actually valuable medicinal herbs in the space transformed into physical objects one by one and settled peacefully in this small courtyard, adding a touch of vitality and elegance to the place.

The main building is a small but sturdy two-story pavilion with a reasonable layout. On the second floor, two bedrooms await their owners. One master bedroom is spacious and bright, while the other side bedroom is a bit more compact, but still cozy and pleasant. On the first floor, the tables and chairs are arranged in an orderly manner and are wiped spotless.

One side of the lobby connects to the kitchen, toilet, and shower room, fully equipped to meet all daily needs.

What's even more surprising is that the house is fully equipped with bedding, sheets, tea sets, and other daily necessities, all of which are brand new and exude a faint, fresh scent.

I never expected to receive such treatment as the dean's disciple. A sense of joy and gratitude welled up in my heart.
