Xiao Tianyang woke up feeling refreshed.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he headed to the front desk to check out.
Just as he was completing the formalities, a stunning blonde beauty walked in, glancing around as if searching for someone.
"Are you looking for someone, beauty?" A handsome young man, dressed sharply, approached her.
"What do you want?" Saber replied, her expression one of confusion. She didn't recognize him, did she?
The young man's face flushed with embarrassment. He coughed a few times, then straightened up and said seriously, "Let me introduce myself, I am—"
"Saber, I'm over here."
At that moment, Xiao Tianyang, who had just turned around, spotted Saber at the door and waved to her.
Hearing his familiar voice, Saber immediately ignored the young man in front of her. Her face lit up with a radiant smile as she turned and walked toward Xiao Tianyang.
The young man's mouth twitched, his face red with suppressed frustration.
He could almost hear the mocking laughter of his friends at the table.
As he turned to see who his "rival" was, his expression froze.
Xiao Tianyang's appearance was simply beyond comparison.
Not only was he far more handsome than the young man, but even if everyone at the table combined their looks, they still wouldn't measure up to Xiao Tianyang.
"Why are you here now? Didn't we agree to meet in the next town?" Xiao Tianyang asked as he finished paying.
"After reading your letter, I asked Bubu to bring me to you..." Saber suddenly looked around in alarm. "Wait, where's Bubu?"
"Don't worry about him. I'm sure he's wandered off again," Xiao Tianyang said, waving his hand dismissively. "But judging by the timing, you must have set off last night, right?"
"Yeah," Saber nodded, then explained, "It's nothing, really. I just had to travel a bit longer."
Xiao Tianyang felt a pang of guilt for her, but he didn't want to sound overly sentimental. Instead, he gently patted her head. Saber, however, loved the gesture and smiled warmly.
The young man didn't dare to interfere further.
It was clear at a glance that Xiao Tianyang was no ordinary person, and Saber's demeanor made it obvious that they both were lover.
No one disturbed them, and the two enjoyed a meal at the hotel before setting off.
It wasn't until they had left the town and reached the outskirts that Saber finally asked, "Where are we going?"
"North," Xiao Tianyang replied, glancing back at her. "Do you remember what I told you last time? We're going to participate in the Continental Elite Young Soul Master Tournament under new identities."
"Of course, I remember. But what does that have to do with going north?" Saber asked, still confused.
"This was my teacher's idea. He's also arranged two team member for me, and they're currently training in the north," Xiao Tianyang explained with a shrug. "Originally, I asked him to send them to me, but he insisted that I go up there—and bring you along. And now we are here."
Saber didn't hesitate, her face breaking into a sweet smile. "As long as I'm with you, I'll go anywhere."
Xiao Tianyang reached out and playfully scratched her nose, smiling back. "I should be the one saying that. Why is it the other way around now?"
"Is there a difference?" Saber asked, tilting her head.
"Not really," Xiao Tianyang chuckled, taking her hand. Saber blushed slightly but didn't pull away.
Xiao Tianyang then summoned his Harley from his Ring and pointed to it. "This will be faster. If all goes well, we should reach the northern edge in six or seven days."
…
Eight days later...
Extreme North
There was a small town closest to the border. Though small, it was well-equipped and bustling with activity.
It served as a major trading hub for northern specialties like furs and rare herbs.
Due to the sparse population in the north, these goods were brought here to be sold, making the town a thriving marketplace.
Suddenly, in the midst of a blizzard, a group of three emerged from the city gates.
"Teacher, do we really have to go out in this weather?" a soft voice complained. "Even if you're fond of Junior Brother, you didn't have to drag us along..."
"You talk too much. I haven't heard Zhou Cheng complain this much," the large man walking in front retorted, glancing back at the girl behind him.
The wind and snow lifted the corner of his cloak, revealing sharp, chiseled features. This was none other than Miao Zhenshan.
"Teacher, is Junior Brother really as strong as you say?" the boy named Zhou Cheng asked.
Despite being of young age, Zhou Cheng's size was extraordinary—standing over two meters tall with a build reminiscent of the Hulk. His muscles were even more exaggerated than Miao Zhenshan's.
"Compared to you, he's the real monster," Miao Zhenshan said with a sly smile. "Of course, if you're not convinced, you can challenge him when he arrives—if you're not afraid of getting hurt."
The comment was clearly meant to provoke, and it worked.
Both the girl and Zhou Cheng now had a strong interest in Xiao Tianyang—specifically, the kind of interest that involved knocking him down.
At that moment, the girl's sapphire-blue eyes widened. "Teacher, what's that?"
Before Miao Zhenshan could get a clear look, a roar sounded through the air.
The familiar sound could only belong to one thing: Xiao Tianyang's Harley-Davidson motorcycle. After all, it was the only one of its kind on the entire Douluo Continent.
"It's your junior brother. Let's welcome him!" Miao Zhenshan said, crossing his arms and lifting his head proudly.
But before he could strike a pose, Xiao Tianyang's Harley skidded to a halt, sending a wave of snow crashing over the three of them.
"Who put three snowmen in the middle of the road?" Xiao Tianyang remarked, raising an eyebrow.
"I don't think those are snowmen..." Saber, sitting behind him, noticed the faint heat emanating from the snow.
Whoosh!
The snow was brushed away, revealing Miao Zhenshan's disgruntled expression. "Kid, why are you driving so fast for no reason?"
"Oh, it's you, Teacher. I didn't recognize you," Xiao Tianyang said with a grin, signaling Saber to dismount.
He shook his cloak and added, "I thought someone was playing a prank by building snowmen in the middle of the road. By the way, what are you doing here?"
"What else? I came to pick you up," Miao Zhenshan said, before the girl behind him interjected.
"And who's this?" Xiao Tianyang asked, looking at her.
"This is Fei Xue, your senior sister and one of the partners I mentioned," Miao Zhenshan introduced. "And this is Zhou Cheng."
"Call me Senior Sister," Feixue said with a haughty tone, her cloak fluttering to reveal her delicate face.
