--- Chapter 132 ---

After Han Yue and Ah Yin reached an agreement, Han Yuan couldn't help but shake his head. While there was no 'real' conflict, he felt the situation around him would get intense soon.

Han Yuan wondered if he could keep his body safe at this point. 'At least they haven't done anything past the limit these years.'

Although Han Yuan naps with the girls often, they haven't done anything more than hugging. Yet, he always felt Liu Erlong and other older women seemed to wait for a sure chance like a bunch of cows preying on young, tender grass.

'Wait a minute...' Han Yuan realized something. 'Don't tell me they are waiting for that! Oh, no, my body wouldn't be safe at all!'

It's not that Han Yuan didn't realize the pattern. He ignored it because he was busy with something else, but now that he thought about it briefly, Liu Erllong and others are clearly waiting for that to happen.

Yes, puberty!

In Douluo Dalu, a dangerous state arises when puberty hits like a truck and hormonal changes become uncontrollable, particularly for boys. This situation becomes worse by the fact that this ancient cultivation world views 12-year-olds as adults. In some regions, they are allowed to visit brothels and, in 'certain' cases, can even marry and have children at that young age.

Han Yuan didn't think much of it before because he was a person from the modern era and focused on improving himself and others to smack that damned Asura.

But now?

Han Yuan feared the chaos that could happen when his puberty hit. Cold sweats ran down his back.

A question couldn't help but arise in Han Yuan's mind. 'Can I hold myself back from doing it?'

'My willpower is pretty strong, right?'

"A-Are you okay, Han Yuan?" asked Zhu Zhuqing. Since she wasn't part of the conversation between Han Yue and Ah Yin, she kept her eyes on Han Yuan and noticed he suddenly went pale.

Han Yuan snapped out of his complex thoughts, deciding not to overthink it and let things flow naturally. Sometimes, it is easier to let things happen and not panic over such things.

He sighed helplessly, "I'm fine."

"Are you sure?" Zhu Zhuqing gave him a worried look.

Han Yuan raised his brow slightly at Zhu Zhuqing's worried acts and replied, "Yes, I'm fine."

"Don't worry, everything is fine."

"Just thinking about my next project."

"And you might be interested in it."

"Hmm?" Zhu Zhuqing's heart stirred. So far, she has learned one or two things about Han Yuan, and when he spoke like this, he really meant something.

Another way of getting stronger!

Zhu Zhuqing was excited but didn't ask questions and let Han Yuan speak first. She knew her position was lower than him, and they weren't close enough yet.

Looking at how invested Zhu Zhuqing was, Han Yuan was amused and told her, "I have a set of techniques from a hidden sect focused on assassination."

"Unfortunately, the sect's legacy was left in the hands of a thief."

"Recently, I got my hands on it, and I think you're suitable for learning this kind of fighting style, Zhuqing."

Zhu Zhuqing was a swift attacker, much like an assassin.

Tang Sect's skills fit her perfectly. Mysterious Heaven Skill, Purple Demon Eye, Controlling Crane and Capturing Dragon, Mysterious Jade Hand, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Tracks.

In fact, the biggest cheat of all Tang Sect Techniques is the Mysterious Heaven Skill, which can improve the practitioner's talent and cultivation qualification by widening and nourishing the meridian (energy pathways), simultaneously strengthening one's physique.

Upon reaching a peak mastery, the Mysterious Heaven Skill can also open Eight Extraordinary Meridian, further enhancing cultivation qualification, even fusing other's bloodlines, and allowing the practitioner to wield its power.

Even though attaining a perfect mastery of the Mysterious Heaven Skill is essential, Han Yuan was able to extract certain aspects and develop new techniques from it.

Unlike Tang San, who reached peak mastery, Zhu Zhuqing could not achieve the same level because she lacked the Sugar Daddy named Asura.

Han Yuan firmly believed that Tang San's Innate Spirit Powers were lower than eight. Tang San's remarkable talents were 'clearly' enhanced by the Mysterious Heaven Skill, contributing to his status as one of the greatest geniuses in Douluo Dalu.

But without that?

Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing would have the same innate spirit power!

It would be interesting to see which one will stand above the other with the Tang Sect's legacy in their hands.

Tang San had Asura.

And Zhu Zhuqing had Han Yuan.

'Hehehe! It would be nice to see Tang San's despair when the one thing he was good at got surpassed by Zhuqing.' Just thinking about it made Han Yuan enthusiastic.

He knew the pride of the reincarnator (transmigrator) very well. They don't want to lose to inferior, weak natives!

Everyone given a second chance would have this kind of pride, even if they didn't realize it.

Even Han Yuan admitted he possessed such pride. However, he didn't let pride blind him.

After all, this world is where the strong eat the weak. Those gods in the sky above could humble him if they wanted to.

If they knew Han Yuan's heaven-defying secrets, they would do anything to break the Divine Realm's rules of not intervening with mortal worlds and chase him to the end of the world.

So, Han Yuan would do his best to cultivate Zhu Zhuqing into the best Tang Sect's inheritor.

Someone who could revive the Tang Sect's legacy in the Douluo Continent, unlike a 'certain' thief.

'Zhuqing and I will make Tang Sect great again!' Han Yuan boldly stated in his heart. 'Wait, that sounds wrong for some reason-!'

Han Yuan shook his head gently before saying, "What do you think, Zhuqing?"

"Are you interested in these techniques?"

Zhu Zhuqing was tempted but asked calmly, "Can these skills make me stronger?"

"Can." Han Yuan replied bluntly. "You can even be one of the strongest experts in the Douluo Continent with them."

"Then, yes. I'm willing to learn!" Zhu Zhuqing replied with a strong determination.

Han Yuan smiled, "Good choice."

"Give me a few weeks to compile the techniques, and you can start learning them."

"Understood." Zhu Zhuqing nodded firmly.

Han Yuan playfully teased, "Well, aren't you disappointed you can't learn them immediately, Zhuqing?"

"No, since you told me to wait for a few weeks, I will patiently wait. I trust you, Han Yuan, wouldn't do impractical things." Zhu Zhuqing's answer was concise, with a hint of warmth.

Han Yuan chuckled, "Congratulations, Zhuqing. From now on, you are the leader of the Dao Academy's second team."

"What???" Zhu Zhuqing was confused.

"W-Why?" Her voice was shaky.

"I just joined the academy..."

"Because you're the one, Zhuqing." Han Yuan is being honest. "You don't know this, but the Dao Academy has more than enough students to form a team, but that doesn't mean the rest of the students weren't talented."

"In fact, my students are very talented."

"But then again, only a few of them had the quality of a leader."

"Well, it was my fault. I spoiled my students rotten, especially those girls."

"That's why. You're worthy, Zhuqing." Han Yuan reached for Zhu Zhuqing's head and patted her gently.

Hearing Han Yuan's words, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but feel emotional as she remembered her time with her sister before the Spirit Awakening Ceremony happened.

Back then, Zhu Zhuyun was a warm, caring older sister.

After that, Zhu Zhuqing felt no warmth from her family anymore. Even her parents didn't react to her harsh treatment.

Until Zhu Zhuqing met Han Yuan.

Once again, Zhu Zhuqing felt warmth.

Once again, she felt something, yes, a home.

Tears faintly appeared in the corner of Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, but she quickly wiped them off. She does not want to appear weak.

"I won't let you down, Han Yuan!" Zhu Zhuqing replied firmly while secretly enjoying the head pats some more.
