Lu Xingran did not sleep long before she woke up. When she saw the blanket covering her body, a warm smile appeared on her face. She looked at Xiang Yang reproachfully, "It's work time, why did you let me fall asleep?"

"I'm doing this for your good work. You see, after resting for a while, your spirit is much better and your work efficiency will also increase. This way, you will be able to spend the least amount of time doing more things." Xiang Yang chuckled.

With Lu Xingran's previous state, although she could barely hold on and continue working, it was clear that her mental state would affect her work efficiency. Although she had only rested for a dozen or so minutes now, after Xiang Yang's ma.s.sage and recuperation, her entire spirit and spirit would be greatly improved.

"Alright, alright. At least you're right. I'm going to start working now. I'm not as free as you are." Lu Xingran naturally knew that Xiang Yang's words made sense. Smiling, she rolled her eyes at Xiang Yang, then went back to work.

From another perspective, Lu Xingran was a type of workaholic. During her working hours, she rarely did things that had nothing to do with her work. Unless it was an emergency, she would never use her working hours to do things that had nothing to do with her work.

Xiang Yang did not sit in his office as he usually did. Instead, he ran around the school, looking for a place where there were fewer people, before sitting down cross-legged and looking up at the dazzling sun in the sky with narrowed eyes. He wondered if he should try to absorb the sun's essence to cultivate.

"If I can also absorb the sun's essence for cultivation, then whether it's day or night, I will have a steady flow of energy to cultivate in the future. I won't have to be restricted by time anymore." The moment he thought of such an enticing result, Xiang Yang couldn't help but hurriedly find a place to cultivate.

"Forget it, let's go to the uninhabited depths of the mountains to train."

Xiang Yang thought about it for a moment and felt that it would be better to stay on that mountain peak where he had spent the entire day and night. It was desolate and quiet, with nothing to disturb him.

Xiang Yang was starting to understand why these experts, who had reached a certain level of cultivation, liked to live in seclusion.

If they were in the city, as long as they had money, it wouldn't be a dream for them to come and go as they pleased. However, there were still so many people who would rather live in seclusion in the mountains and forests.

After deciding to cultivate deep within the mountains, Xiang Yang sent a message to Lu Xingran. Using the connection between their souls, he summoned the Silver Wolf Queen over. Ignoring the resentful gaze of the Silver Wolf Queen, it sat on the Silver Wolf Queen's back and rushed to the top of the mountain as fast as it could.

If it had been Xiang Yang alone, he would have needed nearly an hour to reach that mountain peak at his current speed. Moreover, it would have caused a lot of noise, but the Silver Wolf King's speed was simply too fast. It took him less than twenty minutes before he and Xiang Yang arrived at the mountain peak.

"Protect me well and don't let any wild beasts disturb me. If my cultivation is interrupted, I will stew you. Of course, if you protect me well, then you will have credit. I will roast you and reward you."

The Silver Wolf King did not have the ability to absorb the sun's essence. Instead, it lay on the ground in boredom, its green eyes staring around it as Xiang Yang's protector.

The Silver Wolf Queen could be unhappy with Xiang Yang, but it could only express its dissatisfaction with this heartless master. All of its discontent was in Xiang Yang's hands, so he still had to comply with Xiang Yang's request.

Once Xiang Yang was ready for everything, he began silently cultivating his profound arts. As a result, not long after she started cultivating, smoke began to emerge from the top of her head, sweat pouring down her body.

"They're going to burn me to death." Xiang Yang screamed miserably as he stopped cultivating and hurriedly checked his body. Luckily, he stopped in time and didn't start burning. Otherwise, if he was seen, wouldn't he have turned into an evil disciple who cultivated some evil technique and burned himself to death?

"Hoo hoo …"

Forcefully exhaling some smoke, Xiang Yang stood up with some lingering fear. He raised his head to look at the sun in the sky and muttered, "If my body can withstand the sun's essence, then I'll be able to absorb it to cultivate."

Even though he knew this, Xiang Yang knew that it was almost impossible to temper his body to the point where it could withstand the essence of the sun.

"Forget it, I'll just let nature take its course."

Hearing this, the Silver Wolf King immediately perked up and followed Xiang Yang into the mountains. One man and one wolf. They skillfully grabbed their prey and began to roast it after cleaning it by the stream.

More than an hour later, Xiang Yang and the Silver Wolf Queen had eaten their fill. He carried the steaming, muddy Flower Chicken in his hands as he sat on the Silver Wolf Queen's back and turned into a ray of silver light that shot back the way he had come.

In Tianhai High School, within the princ.i.p.al's office, Lu Xingran was busy with the doc.u.ments in her hands. When she discovered that Xiang Yang had yet to return, she could only helplessly shake her head.

"Princ.i.p.al, let's go eat."

At this moment, Little Ceng walked in and invited Lu Xingran over for dinner.

"No, I still have some work to do here. You go ahead and pack a copy for me when you come back."

"Princ.i.p.al Lu, you've been busy most of the day and haven't had a break. I think it's time for you to stand up and walk around for a while and take advantage of the time we're eating to exercise. Otherwise, your body won't be able to take it anymore without a workout." Little Zheng said with concern.

"But isn't it too tiring for you to be busy with this matter all by yourself? I feel that you can give this matter to Teacher Xiang. He's the one with the highest education in our academy. This kind of thing isn't something that can be done easily." Little Zheng said with a smile.

"Eh, this is indeed a good idea. It's just that with his lazy personality, why would he do such a thing? If I were to do it for him, it would probably be done as he pleases. Forget it." Lu Xingran's eyes lit up at first, but then he shook his head and denied it.

"But you are too tired to be alone." Little Zheng frowned.

"There's no other way. There are many things that I need to do before I can rest a.s.sured." Lu Xingran smiled helplessly.

Her teacher had personally instructed her to take care of this academic exchange. Whether it was due to her professional attainments or her respect for her teacher, she would personally and carefully complete the early stages of the event, ensuring the perfect opening of the academic exchange.

"Then you really need to pay attention to your body. Otherwise, it'll be too much of a loss if your body breaks down. Tianhai couldn't leave you alone, and you're even more so, Mrs. Xiang Yang." Little Ceng dissuaded.

"Little girl, have you come into contact with Xiang Yang recently and learned to flatter him?" Lu Xingran scolded.

"No, I'm just speaking the truth." Little Ceng immediately blushed as he said.

"Alright, alright. Quickly go and eat. Just remember to pack a serving for me." Lu Xingran said with a smile.

"Sure, I'll pack your favorite roasted chicken for you." Little Zeng giggled as she turned around and prepared to leave.

Just as Little Zheng turned around, he saw a figure walking in with a ball of smoking mud in his hand. Wasn't that Xiang Yang who had just left?

"There's no need to pack the roasted chicken. I've already brought it back." Xiang Yang said with a grin.

"Ah …" The roasted chicken that Teacher Xiang mentioned was this ball … Mud? " Little Ceng looked at the still steaming mud in Xiang Yang's hands and immediately wanted to laugh.

"It seems to be hot... "Wow, it's so hot..."

"My skin is thick and my flesh is thick. What's there to be afraid of? This is called a flowery chicken, I made it myself. You don't need to eat. This chicken is enough for the two of you."

Then, he carefully placed the chicken on the table and called out to Lu Xingran, "Wife, come and eat, come and have a taste of the chicken that your husband I made for you. This is made from a pure wild chicken, original juice, it's simply too delicious."

"Did you leave for so long just to catch pheasants on a nearby mountain?" Lu Xingran walked over and asked curiously.

Xiang Yang coughed a few times before carefully knocking the mud away, revealing the smoking Lotus Leaf wrapped around the Flower Chicken.

"It smells so good."

"Come, come, let's have a taste of the chef's cooking. The president won't be able to eat this."

Xiang Yang laughed before carefully opening the lotus leaves, revealing the sparkling and translucent chicken that exuded a rich aroma that could not be dissolved.

"Are you full?" Lu Xingran asked Xiang Yang.

"I've eaten, hehe, I ate a fried chicken by myself …"

"…"

After Lu Xingran gave Xiang Yang a supercilious look, he no longer paid any attention to Xiang Yang. He held a fruit knife in his hand, and together with Little Zeng, he dismembered the entire chicken and began to eat it impatiently.

"Wow, it's so delicious."

"Teacher Xiang's cooking skills are really too great. I've eaten called flower chicken before as well, but I've never eaten anything as delicious as this before. It's incomparably fragrant, neither greasy nor oily …" I can't find an adjective to praise it. " Little Zheng mumbled as he ate.

Lu Xingran, on the other hand, was much more refined. As she took a chicken leg and nibbled on it, her eyes were filled with curiosity as she looked at Xiang Yang, "Did you really make this yourself?"

"Of course, few people can compare to my culinary skills." Xiang Yang said smugly.

"Ahhhh!"

"What? You don't want to?" Lu Xingran's eyes widened.

"How could I not? Being able to cook for my wife is my honor. In the future, just leave the cooking to me." Xiang Yang hurriedly patted his chest in a.s.surance.

"Xiang Yang teacher is really a good man." Little Zheng said with envy at the side.

"Teacher Xiang, I'm also tired of eating outside …" Little Zeng said pitifully.

"Uh, no problem. Leave the bag with me. I'll bring you another one from now on." Anyway, it was fine if he brought one serving of food, and it was fine as well if he brought two. Moreover, Xiang Yang had a very good impression of this innocent little girl from before. He could only agree to it.

"Thank you, Teacher Xiang."

Xiang Yang waved his hands in a very generous manner, a wry smile on his face as he thought, "This is what you call a disaster caused by a 'flower chicken', isn't it?"
