Chapter 12 – Three Years Later (2/2)

Tang Wulin wasn't eager to leave as they approached the academy's gates. Rather, he stood outside the gates and waited.

Not too long after, a smear of radiant silver hair wandered over from the composite academy building.

“Na'er, slow down. You're going to trip.” Tang Wulin's voice was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with love as he doted on her.

Na'er had a head of short silver hair, and even after three years, she hadn't changed too much. She was just a bit taller than before while remaining just as adorably pretty. It was just that, no matter how you looked at it, Tang Wulin and Na'er didn't look like they only had a one year age difference between the two of them. She was just a loli who hadn't grown too much.

“Big brother, I want to eat a lollipop,” Na'er giggled as she held onto Tang Wulin's arm.

“Alright. Let's go buy one and then I'll bring you home before I head off to the workshop.” Tang Wulin said as he patted her head.

As the dismissed students left, none of them were surprised by the sight of these two siblings. They had long since gotten used to it.

In the second year that Na'er stayed with the Tang family, she had attended the Awakening Ceremony and brought about a marvel. This marvel wasn't that her martial soul was exceedingly powerful. Instead, she didn't possess any martial soul at all. This was something that was rarely seen throughout the history of the continent.

Naturally she could only enter the ordinary section of the academy to study without a martial soul.

Na'er grew to become very pretty, making all of the other girls jealous while arousing the curiosity of all of the boys. Due to this, Tang Wulin never had a shortage of fights. One time, a group of male students stopped him, and since he was unable to beat them all by himself, he just used his body to protect Na'er. In the end, he was covered in cuts and bruises, but not a single hair on Na'er was damaged.

The next day, Tang Wulin found the leader and would have a fierce fight every day until finally, he had beaten his opponent until they were afraid of him and were too scared to bully Na'er anymore. Because he was in the Soul Master cla.s.s, he didn't receive any serious punishments. He was famous after that fight, and no one in the Red Mountain Academy dared to bully Na'er again.

Since he was eight years old, Tang Wulin had acted like a young man. He shouldered the responsibility of picking up and dropping off his younger sister.

After buying some snacks, Tang Wulin dropped off Na'er at their home along with his schoolbag. In exchange, he put on some oil soaked work clothes and left the house once again.

Mang Tian's workshop had already become a part of his everyday life.
