The Yellow-Haired Villain in Soaring Phoenix’s Novels Also Desires Happiness - Chapter 263



41, A Toothpick

“Alright.”

Teacher Meila smiled radiantly, as if completely unconcerned about the huge difference in size between the two.

This display of confidence made Mu En hesitate:

“Teacher Meila, you… really won’t use fighting spirit or magic?”

“I don’t need to.”

“And you won’t use any strange skills?”

“Of course not.”

“And you won’t suddenly pull out some amazing item?”

“Of course not… If you’re coming, then come. Why all this fuss?” Teacher Meila’s amber eyes revealed a hint of impatience.

“Wait, let me think, let me think…”

Mu En lowered his head, seemingly deep in thought about his chances of winning.

But suddenly, he kicked the ground hard.

Several delicate flowers, along with the soil beneath them, were suddenly kicked up and scattered towards the unsuspecting Teacher Meila.

At that moment, Mu En’s muscles tensed up all at once.

A heat surged from behind him, the alchemical core activated, and time slowed down!

At the same time, Shadow Step!

Under this dual acceleration, Mu En transformed into a blur, difficult for the naked eye to discern, and lunged towards Teacher Meila from the direction obscured by the soil.

Muscle collision?

What a joke.

Who knows what kind of tough Barbie doll is hidden beneath your thousand-year-old loli exterior.

Besides, in a duel where age and strength differ so vastly, isn’t it fine if I cheat a little?

Teacher Meila slightly tilted her body, evading the soil and flowers, and Mu En seized this opportunity to close in!

He clenched his fist tightly, infusing it with fighting spirit, and suddenly struck towards Teacher Meila.

Within that punch, thunder roared!

Take my sheer loli punch!

Without a shred of pity, Mu En unleashed a punch filled with all his lifelong training, accompanied by a gust of wind that stirred the flowers, aimed at Teacher Meila.

Boom!

The shockwave surged!

Under Mu En’s fist, the petite white-haired loli before him seemed just like those delicate flowers around her, ready to snap at any moment.

But Teacher Meila slowly raised her eyes, her crimson pupils reflecting the figure of Mu En as he suddenly appeared.

Still half-smiling, still calm.

Mu En’s heart skipped a beat, and in that split second, he saw Teacher Meila gently raise her hand.

Extending a slender finger.

Hooked.

In an instant.

Boom!

It was a sudden, thunderous sound, like a bolt of lightning crashing down.

But that sound, compared to Mu En’s thunder, was like a storm that swept everything away, a stark contrast to the flutter of mosquito wings!

The shockwave from his fist was instantly engulfed.

A tremendous force surged in, as if it were the divine punishment of an apocalypse, descending from the heavens.

Mu En’s vision went black.

It felt as if countless heavy hammers were striking his chest, his blood and energy roiling; the fighting spirit he had been channeling was shattered, uncontrollably sending him flying backward.

From noble mtl dot com

In his ears was an endless, sharp buzzing, and before his eyes were countless flickering golden stars. A sweetness rose in his throat, and blood involuntarily seeped from the corners of his mouth and nostrils.

Teacher Meila had merely moved a finger, and it nearly caused Mu En to lose all his senses!

“Damn it!”

After an unknown amount of time, Mu En finally calmed the turmoil within his body.

But just as he tried to get up, he felt a weight pressing down on him.

A petite body suddenly landed on him.

Mu En struggled to turn his head.

He saw Teacher Meila sitting on him, her little round butt wrapped in a nightgown, providing an incredibly soft touch. Her legs were crossed, and two smooth, white little feet swayed back and forth, reminiscent of freshly steamed buns just out of the steamer.

“Is that all?”

Teacher Meila mockingly looked at Mu En, “You can’t even handle a single finger from me; you’re no good, silly disciple.”

“Nonsense!”

Mu En’s old face turned red, but he still held his neck high and said:

“Who can’t do it? Clearly, you were cheating!”

“I didn’t cheat.”

“You used fighting spirit!”

“Did not.”

“Then just now…”

“That was merely pure physical strength.”

Saying this, Teacher Meila wiggled her finger again.

This time, there was no apocalyptic thunder, just a faint humming sound.

But the air around her finger still produced a visible distortion that Mu En could only barely manage with all his strength.

And this time, such a clear and slow motion made Mu En certain…

She really hadn’t used any fighting spirit at all.

“What… what is this?” Mu En’s eyes widened, as if he was beginning to understand something, his teeth chattering as he said:

“May I ask, you… your physical body must be quite strong, right?”

“Of course.”

Teacher Meila’s lips curled into a smile, “You wouldn’t think that I’ve been sleeping away these thousand years, would you? Although I only exercise out of boredom sometimes, now…”

Teacher Meila gently clenched her fist and made a harmless gesture in front of Mu En: “I should still be able to punch and kill an ordinary crowned one.”

“…”

So it really is a Barbie doll in a loli disguise?

“But… but you still cheated!”

Mu En shouted defiantly: “You just used a strange technique!”

“I didn’t use anything.”

“Nonsense, if you didn’t use anything, no matter how strong your physical body is, how could you just…”

Mu En’s words were suddenly interrupted.

Because a delicate little foot wobbled over, five cute toes spread out on the soft foot, the round and plump big toe, like a little bun, suddenly poked Mu En’s cheek, drawing circles repeatedly.

“Kid, your whole body is pretty soft, but your mouth is quite tough.”

“Woo woo woo…”

Having a white, tender, and fragrant loli foot stomp on his face, Mu En instantly showed an expression of immense humiliation.

Damn it, this is too infuriating!

If it weren’t for the fact that I can’t defeat you, I would have…

But since I can’t win, being ruthlessly trampled is unavoidable, right? Hehe…

“That move just now wasn’t a strange technique at all. Don’t you think it looks a bit familiar?” Teacher Meila continued.

“Familiar?”

Mu En was taken aback.

Then he recalled carefully.

As the details from just now unfolded in his mind bit by bit.

Mu En’s eyes couldn’t help but widen little by little.

“That move just now… was Thunderclap?”

My, Thunderclap?

“That’s right, it was indeed the move you used. I took 0.01 seconds to learn it and then spent another 0.01 seconds to improve it, that’s all.”

What the hell, is this the ultimate golden collector’s edition Sharingan?

Just one glance and I can even casually improve it—this is too exaggerated.

“This is the benefit that experience brings. No matter what martial art or magic it is, just one look from me and I can basically understand its operational principles, and then make some improvements based on that foundation.

As for the power of the improvements…”

Teacher Meila revealed a smug little loli smile and said:

“In my hands, even using magic, the power could reach about a hundred times yours.”

But your age is probably about a hundred times mine too.

Mu En silently scoffed in his heart.

“…”

The smile at the corner of Teacher Meila’s mouth suddenly vanished. She looked down at Mu En and suddenly said:

“Speaking of which, strictly speaking, since you became my disciple, I haven’t really taught you anything yet.”

“What…”

Mu En was taken aback.

“I should at least fulfill some of my responsibilities as a teacher, shouldn’t I?”

Teacher Meila floated up gracefully and said:

“Or are you saying that you can’t get up anymore?”

“Who can’t get up!”

Mu En’s eyes brightened. With a sudden leap, he sprang up like a carp and drew out Elizabeth, his momentum fierce as he said:

“I’m still holding on!”

“Very good.”

Meila nodded in satisfaction, then looked around. From the leftover fruit platter beside the hot spring, she picked up a toothpick.

“Since I need to teach you weaponry, I’ll use this to practice with you.”

“…”

Looking at the toothpick, Mu En’s mouth twitched. He instinctively glanced beneath himself and let out a sigh of relief:

“Teacher Meila, your innuendo is a bit too forced, isn’t it?”

“What innuendo?”

“Ahem, I was just joking. Please don’t mind it.”

Teacher Meila looked at Mu En oddly for a moment, then her eyes suddenly narrowed, and her smile returned to the familiar brilliance that Mu En knew.

“By the way, before this, I need to ask you a question in advance.”

“What?”

“What’s the meaning of that sheer gauze loli fist you were just thinking about, that diamond Barbie doll, and that age hundredfold?”

“……”

Mu En’s body instantly stiffened.

Damn.

I forgot this old loli can read minds and hold grudges!

But it was too late.

Teacher Meila pinched a toothpick,

At that moment, the sky suddenly brightened.

It was as if endless thunder was coiling around that tiny toothpick.

And then it fell with a crash.
