Xiao Yan's Aunt

"Oh you two are here, I didn't notice." said the principal while clearing his table and storing the papers.

"We decided to pay a visit. Our group arrived here in the morning." Xiao Yan said.

"Are we not bothering you for doing this, principal?" asked Mu Yue. She did not leave the room as she wants to at least leave a greeting.

The principal then finished arranging the papers and faced them. "No, the papers are not that important anyway."

He then observed the two girls and complimented, "You two are really geniuses. Both of you have already reached the 7th step of the Qi Condensation stage."

He was more pleased with Mu Yue's progress. Xiao Yan reaching this level will be quite normal but for Mu Yue to reach it too made him surprised.

'I was not wrong teaching this child. I better discuss my plan on adopting her before those families decided to take the child.'

Xiao Yan noticed the principal staring at Mu Yue.

"Why are you staring at Mu Yue!?" yelled Xiao Yan as she quickly hugs Mu Yue, blocking her from the principal's gaze.

"Ouch" exclaimed Xiao Yan. She was pinched by Mu Yue on her waist.

"*Cough* You might have misunderstood. I was staring at Mu Yue as I had a plan that concerns her well being." the principal explained.

"Isn't that the sa-"

"What are you planning principal?" asked Mu Yue as she interrupted Xiao Yan by covering her mouth.

She then said to Xiao Yan, "I don't know why you are disrespectful to the principal but please change the way you talk. You are now looking like a rouge on my eyes."

'Rogue…. rogue… rogue.' Xiao Yan's mind blank out and only this word was repeating on her head.

Mu Yue doesn't know why the principal does not mind Xiao Yan's disrespectful attitude but she must correct her. The principal was her teacher so she doesn't want him getting disrespected.

The principal heard all of this and could not help but smirk because of what's happening to Xiao Yan. After being pleased for a while, the principal then told Mu Yue of his plans.

"Mu Yue, I wanted to adopt you as my daughter. This is to protect you for being bothered by the other families and me becoming your guardian. This way, you could have me as your backing."

Xiao Yan heard this and rejected it. "No, if this happens then Mu Yue will surely side with you!"

"Then who do you think should adopt Mu Yue? Your family?" asked the principal.

Xiao Yan nodded. "My family is rich and we can certainly adopt Mu Yue. It will only take some pleading from me and they will do it."

"That could certainly happen but the decision lies on Mu Yue. What do you think about this, Mu Yue?"

"Principal, are you related by blood to Xiao Yan?" Mu Yue asks.

It took a while for the principal to answer the question as he did not expect this. "No, I'm just a close friend of Xiao Yan's grandpa."

"Oh, that's good. Then why adopt me as a daughter and not as your granddaughter?" Mu Yue asks as the principal should be old enough to be her grandfather.

"I'm currently at the Soul Formation stage as I deliberately slowed down my cultivation. However, I would have to break through to become a celestial in three years. I would then be able to regain my youth and I don't like someone calling me grandfather when I still don't have a wife." The principal explained.

Mu Yue then looked at Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan also looked back. Mu Yue imagined something which caused her to laugh. She then said, "Hehe, then I agree to be your daughter, principal."

"Good. I still haven't introduced myself to you so I will do it now. My name is Huang Zhi Li. I have no other relatives so only we two will be on our family."

"Then please take care of me, father." Mu Yue said with a bright smile.

'Damn! So this is what it feels like to have a daughter.' Zhi Li thought as the image of Mu Yue smiling at him and calling him father was just too cute.

Zhi Li then smilingly said, "The same for me my cute daughter"

"This old man is surely having weird thoughts." Xiao Yan said when she saw Zhi Li's expression.

Xiao Yan then saw Mu Yue looking at her while smiling. For some reason, she had a bad feeling about this.

"I would have to discipline you as your aunt, Xiao Yan. I could not let you being disrespectful to my father."
