Douluo Dalu (Soul Land): I Am Invincible

Chapter 49: Chapter 49: This is the power of connections!



"Brother Fu Ye, I want a bowl of this carrot porridge! And this one too!"

Xiao Wu was fascinated by everything in the human world, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. Beside her, the handsome young man Wu Ling sat quietly.

Fu Ye found the scene amusing. After all, Wu Ling was Xiao Wu's reincarnation—yet their personalities couldn't be more different.

The little girl struggled to order at first, but once Xiao Wu finished, Fu Ye casually selected the most expensive dishes on the menu.

After all, his system mall clearly stated:

Meanwhile, Tang Chuan was devouring the food in front of him like a starving beast. What he once considered worthless now seemed like a feast of the gods.

He tore into chicken legs one after another, his ravenous eating startling Yu Xiaogang.

Tang San was no better. He swallowed a chicken leg in two bites, then shoved an entire piece of braised pork into his mouth—barely chewing before gulping it down.

Xiao Wu and Wu Ling watched in horror, their brows furrowing in perfect unison.

Sensing their stares, Tang San and Tang Chuan turned their heads simultaneously.

Grease smeared their hands, soup stained their collars, and splashes of red oil streaked their cheeks—proof of their barbaric feast.

Tang San, unfamiliar with Xiao Wu, merely looked awkward. But Tang Chuan?

"Wuh—"

Seeing Xiao Wu and Wu Ling's disgusted expressions, he tried to speak—only for the spicy meat in his mouth to lodge in his throat.

He forced a swallow, but his throat refused to cooperate.

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

Desperate to salvage his dignity, he turned away—forgetting one crucial detail.

Tang San sat to his right. Yu Xiaogang sat directly across.

What followed was a disaster.

Six years' worth of Lao Fan's spiciest cuisine erupted from Tang Chuan's mouth of which 50% splattered onto Yu Xiaogang's face, 30% shot straight into Yu Xiaogang's open mouth, 10% sprayed onto Tang San's face while the remaining 10% rained over their plates and the table.

A foul stench filled the air, making everyone nearby recoil.

"Ugh—!"

Two people at Xiao Chenyu's table vomited instantly. The rest could only stare in horrified silence.

Even Xiao Wu and Wu Ling felt queasy—especially after glimpsing Tang Chuan's yellowed teeth.

Yu Xiaogang, ever the model of restraint, grabbed a nearby trash can and spat.

Tang San wiped the filth from his face, then shot his elder brother a look of pure revulsion.

After a fit of coughing, Tang Chuan finally recovered—only to find Xiao Wu and Wu Ling had turned away, refusing to look at him.

His heart sank.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, I didn't—"

"It's fine. I know you didn't mean it."

"Yeah, brother, don't worry. We don't blame you."

Their forgiveness moved him deeply.

"Okay!"

Then he glanced at the saliva-covered chicken leg in his bowl.

'As a previous God King, I must set an example!'

He peeled off the spit-soaked bits, took a defiant bite, then eyed the porridge—barely tainted by his earlier mishap.

"Gulp."

Yu Xiaogang: "Ugh—"

Tang San: "Ugh—"

Xiao Chenyu: "Ugh—"

Xiao Chenyu's friends: "Ugh~~~~"

Xiao Wu and Wu Ling turned back at the noise.

"Brother Fu Ye, I feel sick..."

"Me too..."

Fu Ye had had enough.

"BOSS! Thirty gold soul coins for a private room—NOW!"

Even he, a man of vast experience, couldn't endure Tang San's sheer disgusting prowess.

"Damn it! I can't take this anymore!"

"If he's not beating people up, he's grossing them out!"

"Let's get out of here—I refuse to stay another second!"

Three minutes later, Fu Ye, Xiao Wu, and Wu Ling were seated in a luxurious private room—free of charge, thanks to the earlier incident.

As for Yu Xiaogang, Tang Chuan, and Tang San?

They were permanently banned from the first-floor cafeteria and exiled to the second-floor restaurant.

A quarter-hour later...

"This carrot porridge is delicious!"

"The meat is amazing!"

"Eat as much as you want. Just ask for more if it's not enough."

Wu Ling, the reincarnated "beautiful young man," was just as much a foodie as Xiao Wu. The earlier ordeal was quickly forgotten—food truly was the best remedy.

Late at night...

While the rest of the academy slept, only Flender's room remained lit.

"Oh? Honey, you're saying the cafeteria refused to serve you and your students?"

Flender spoke between particle collision movements, and Yu Xiaogang nodded eagerly.

"Yes! And their attitude was terrible! I—"

Flender cut him off.

"Don't worry. Though the cafeteria isn't under my direct control, as dean, I'll handle it tomorrow."

Yu Xiaogang beamed.

'This is the power of connections!'

Still, something nagged at him about that young man who shared a name with that loser from twenty years ago...

But no—the boy was only eighteen or nineteen. Even if he had survived, he wouldn't be this young.

"Slap!"

A sudden sting snapped him back to reality.

"Move!"

Meanwhile, in Fu Ye's villa...

Xiao Wu slept with Wu Ling in her arms, using protection as an excuse.

"Sister Xiao Wu, how long have you known Brother Fu Ye?"

"Hehe, we've known each other for ages."

"Are you two a couple? You seem perfect together!"

"A couple?"

Xiao Wu paused.

Were they?

Not exactly.

But now that she was human, their relationship had definitely evolved beyond pet and master...

Could they be lovers?

'I'll have to ask my mother first.'
