Neuvillette shook his head, turned around, and walked out of the city. He didn't refuse to teach; he simply didn't know how.
Besides, even if he did know, why should he teach Yu Tianheng?
He was not Melusine...
"Young master Yu Tianheng, please go back. I have no way to make you stronger."
After saying this, Neuvillette left without looking back.
Yu Tianheng was stunned and watched Neuvillette's retreating figure. He still felt a sense of superiority emanating from him.
His intuition was never wrong!
"No, I can't give up!"
"Yanyan, I will surely gain the power to protect you!"
Yu Tianheng was a very proud person, and he could not accept that Dugu Yan was stronger than him.
Of course, he did not resent Dugu Yan; he only blamed himself for not working hard enough.
The glory of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect did not allow him to be weaker than his girlfriend.
After pondering for a while, Yu Tianheng clenched his right fist, gritted his teeth, and quickly followed.
"I must become stronger!"
"He can definitely help me become stronger!"
Yu Tianheng's ultimate goal was to single-handedly defeat the Heaven Dou Royal Team, and Neuvillette's demeanor only strengthened his determination in this pursuit.
When Neuvillette sensed that Yu Tianheng was tailing him, he couldn't help but stop. After thinking for a moment, he decided to ignore him.
Yu Tianheng was free to do what he wanted.
Shaking his head, Neuvillette continued walking towards the river.
The old man Lexius had gone to find his old friends and wouldn't be back for a while.
The annual meeting was approaching, and it would be held in Heaven Dou City today. Most of the direct members of the eight major families would attend.
Lexius might go to the Star Luo Empire first, wait for the four families there to finish their visits, then return to the Heaven Dou Empire, and then finally go to Heaven Dou City.
By that time, it would be almost time for the annual meeting.
Soon after, Neuvillette arrived at the riverside. There was only this small river near Suotuo City.
To Yu Tianheng's surprise, Neuvillette took out a chair and a fishing rod from the storage shed.
There was no bait, and he threw the empty hook into the water.
This scene made Yu Tianheng, who knew nothing about fishing, very puzzled.
"No bait, no fish bite," he mused. Yet, was he spending his prime years fishing instead of cultivating?
Yu Tianheng blinked his eyes, his eyes shining with "wisdom."
He remained unconvinced! He believed, Neuvillette must be concealing some secret, merely feigning to fish. The lack of trust between them was evident.
Despite accompanying him, Yu Tianheng had no intention of prying into Neuvillette's cultivation without explicit permission.
As Neuvillette started fishing, Yu Tianheng didn't care about his image. He just found a place to sit down and stared at Neuvillette.
About an hour later, Yu Tianheng was about to doze off when Neuvillette moved.
Yu Tianheng immediately woke up and fixed his eyes on Neuvillette.
Neuvillette made a casual gesture without releasing his martial spirit. A ball of pure water quickly formed a goblet. The water in the cup and the goblet were clearly separated, and it looked like a real crystal cup filled with water.
This scene made Yu Tianheng's jaw drop to the ground.
What kind of soul control was this?
Only someone with extraordinary skill could do this!
No wonder he could summon two dragons!
Yu Tianheng had never heard of this soul skill, let alone seen it.
Neuvillette had not even released his martial spirit!
It was incredible.
"He also said he couldn't. What is this?"
"Hey~"
Yu Tianheng sighed. He wondered if it was because he was not sincere enough that Neuvillette didn't teach him.
Was such powerful soul power control really something a soul Elder could achieve?
"The water in Suotuo City is clear, sweet, and has an endless aftertaste. The water in Heaven Dou City..."
The water on the Heaven Dou City side was a bit deep.
Hearing Neuvillette's murmur, Yu Tianheng fell into deep thought again. Did Neuvillette have some hidden meaning?
Scratching his head with his left hand, Yu Tianheng was a little confused.
The next moment, something happened that made Yu Tianheng even more baffled!
Neuvillette seemed to sense something. The goblet in his hand disappeared, and the next moment, Focalors appeared in his arms.
She was silent and without any fluctuations in her power, appearing out of thin air.
Yu Tianheng's mouth opened slightly, but he couldn't speak.
Wasn't this girl the one who was with Neuvillette last night?
They looked like a couple, but Yu Tianheng was too shy to ask for details.
At this moment, cold sweat broke out on Yu Tianheng's forehead. How could she appear silently in Neuvillette's arms without any fluctuations in her soul power?
Describing it in four words: too terrifying! Could they be two old monsters who rejuvenated themselves? Such a possibility wasn't entirely implausible!
As long as one's strength reached the level of Titled Douluo, one could return to youth, but few Titled Douluo would do this.
The price of rejuvenation required soul power to be actively maintained. Except for female soul masters, male soul masters rarely did this.
Most of them maintained their appearance at around twenty and thirty years old. They looked like boys and girls, like Neuvillette and Focalors. Yu Tianheng had never heard of them, let alone seen them.
"Did you finish your work so quickly?"
Neuvillette scratched Focalors' nose and said it without changing his expression.
With the beauty in his arms, his stagnant face did not show any emotion, but his heartbeat was much faster than usual.
"It's done. I'll give the old man a surprise then."
"I hope it's not a shock."
Neuvillette said quietly. He always felt that what Focalors took out was definitely not that simple.
"Can you tell me in advance what it is? Of course, I'm not curious!"
Neuvillette said insincerely, staring at Focalors intently, as if to say, Show me.
Focalors: "..."
"The secret is that you will know it when the time comes!"
Focalors smiled slightly, shook his head, and said.
The exchange between the two made Yu Tianheng confused. He couldn't understand what Neuvillette and Focalors were saying at all.
Did they overlook the presence of another person here? Wasn't it questionable to be so intimate, ambiguous, and blatantly deceptive?
Suddenly, Focalors raised her eyebrows and looked sideways, looking at Yu Tianheng, not far away.
She didn't even frown before leaving Neuvillette's apartment.
"Well, Neuvillette, the fish you want to catch is probably Young Master Yu Tianheng, right?"
Yu Tianheng: "???"
What did she mean? Why did Yu Tianheng become a fish?
"No, Master Yu Tianheng just stopped by to take a look..."
