Chapter 128: This Is Just Too Adorable

Jiang Yan hurriedly followed upstairs and happened upon the door to the large middle room standing wide open. At a glance, he took in the scene inside.

Damn it, had this little dragon already set his sights on this room?

The room was spacious, and what caught the eye most was the enormous bathtub on the far left. And now, that bathtub was filled to the brim with sparkling jewels...

Could it be that this little dragon planned to take a bath in gems?

"Little dragon, this room..." Jiang Yan was about to question why the little dragon had chosen the room himself, and why it was precisely his own room, when the little dragon eagerly leapt into the gem-strewn bathtub.

"Ha ha ha, this is pure bliss for me, the dragon lord..." The little dragon lay atop the pile of jewels, his face full of enjoyment.

Jiang Yan clenched his teeth, thinking to himself, fine, he would just take the room on the third floor.

"Brother Yan, I want to live in this big house too, can I?" Yun Yun looked at the little dragon with envy, then coquettishly turned to Jiang Yan.

This... was just too adorable.

Jiang Yan simply could not resist such a cute display of affection from Yun Yun.

Well then, well then, the large room on the third floor would be hers.

"Alright, you can take the big room on the third floor."

"Yay! I like you the best, Brother Yan!" Yun Yun jumped up excitedly and planted a kiss on Jiang Yan’s cheek.

Finally, Jiang Yan also arranged a room for Yun Li, as he had promised earlier.

The villa had five master bedrooms, eight guest rooms, a dining hall, an entertainment room, and all the necessary amenities.

The most spacious master bedroom was taken by the little dragon, and to Jiang Yan, the difference between the remaining master bedrooms was negligible.

Thus began their leisurely life of retirement in this grand estate.

...

Over the next month, Jiang Yan only visited Lin Qi a few times to learn cultivation techniques and formation arts; thereafter, he fully immersed himself in leisure and relaxation.

Yes, leisure!

On this arduous path of immortal cultivation, it was essential to occasionally treat oneself.

Having the time to vacation in his own grand estate, Jiang Yan felt as if he had reached the pinnacle of life.

Lin Qi was not at all surprised by Jiang Yan’s swift mastery of the fate-related cultivation and formation techniques.

He had long sensed his apprentice’s extraordinary nature. Jiang Yan not only possessed remarkable talent but also keen insight.

Therefore, when Jiang Yan had thoroughly grasped the techniques and formations, Lin Qi did not insist on prolonging his tutelage.

After all, even masters needed to relax and enjoy moments of idleness now and then! (￣▽￣)~*

Hehe, the matter of searching for the Chaos Pearl would wait until his disciple had rested a few days...

Unaware of Lin Qi’s plans, Jiang Yan spent his days immersed in leisurely bliss, savoring the peace and comfort of immortal life.

One day, sunlight streamed through the window into Jiang Yan’s room.

He stretched contentedly. "Hmm, the weather’s really nice today."

"Meow~"

Little White softly meowed as she leapt through the window, lightly padding to Jiang Yan’s feet.

Jiang Yan bent down to stroke her fluffy head. "So, you finally left Da Huang and came back to me?"

"Meow meow," Little White replied. Da Huang sent me back.

"Little White, do you want to invite your Da Huang to come play with us?"

"Meow meow meow..." Really? Can I? I’ll go get her right away.

Excited, Little White dashed to the window, vanishing from Jiang Yan’s sight in an instant.

Jiang Yan shook his head, tsk, having a girlfriend really changes things—look at her eagerness...

His gaze returned to the sunlight outside the window, and an idea flickered in his mind: today, he would throw a pool party.

Only inviting the little dragon, Yun Li, Yun Yun, and Little White.

With that thought, Jiang Yan entrusted the party preparations to Black Flower.

He noticed that Black Flower had become the master of those two wooden figures.

Those previously dull wooden figures seemed brought to life after recognizing Black Flower as their owner; they no longer appeared sluggish and could even utter simple phrases.

Jiang Yan suspected this was linked to Black Flower’s abilities...

Black Flower was particularly enthusiastic about entertainment arrangements, and under its direction, the two wooden figures worked with great efficiency.

Sunshades and lounge chairs were quickly positioned by the poolside, and the barbecue grill was set up perfectly.

When Little White returned with Da Huang, they saw Jiang Yan leisurely floating on the water’s surface, his eyes shielded by a cool pair of black "eyewear" (actually sunglasses), while Yun Yun played gleefully in the pool.

"Hahaha, Brother Yan, come get up and play in the water with me," Yun Yun’s laughter chimed like silver bells.

The little dragon and Yun Li busied themselves by the barbecue; Yun Li skillfully flipped the food on the grill, while the little dragon eagerly devoured the treats, not forgetting to urge Yun Li:

"Yun Li, hurry up! This barbecue is driving me crazy waiting!"

Honestly, Yun Li wished the gluttonous dragon would eat more slowly. He was clearly grilling for his master, yet it seemed he was serving this little fat dragon instead.

"Roar—" Da Huang’s voice rumbled like thunder as he greeted those by the pool: Hello, everyone!

As a tiger, Da Huang’s voice naturally carried a majestic authority. Jiang Yan and the others by the pool couldn’t help but look their way.

Faced with so many gazes, Da Huang suddenly felt shy and instinctively hid behind Little White, like a bashful bride.

Well, it did block his own view.

Still, Jiang Yan and the others saw Da Huang’s figure; with Little White being so small, there was no way she could fully conceal a tiger that size.

Jiang Yan sprang from the pool, moving swiftly like the wind, landing in front of Little White. Smiling, he asked, "Little White, aren’t you going to introduce your friend?"

"Meow meow meow..." Little White turned to Da Huang and introduced in her language: Da Huang, this is my master, also my sixth senior brother.

"Roar roar..." Da Huang lifted his tiger head to look at Jiang Yan, a hint of bashfulness in his eyes, and responded in tiger language: Hello, thank you for taking care of Little White.
