In the end, Nan Gong Huan took a couple of steps back and said, "We were just passing by. We’ll take our leave now."
After speaking, she signaled to the siblings with her eyes to quickly board the Cui Gu Heavenly Bird and leave.
They had stolen someone’s spirit veins, so it was only natural to feel guilty and make a quick escape.
"I want to go with you too!" Yun Qing Qing clung to Nan Gong Huan. As soon as she grabbed Nan Gong Huan’s sleeve, there was a tearing sound, and a large piece of the sleeve was ripped off, revealing half of Nan Gong Huan’s snow-white arm.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to!" Yun Qing Qing immediately apologized, her hands trembling as she raised them in surrender, the piece of fabric falling to the ground.
Nan Gong Huan’s eyes widened. What kind of strength did this loli have?
"Wait!" Cui Zhejian waved his hand and stopped them, smiling as he said, "Since you’ve come to the Cui family’s territory, you’re our honored guests. Why not come to my place for a cup of tea? We can have a little chat and become friends."
The tallest woman seemed a bit fierce and not easy to deal with, but Qing Qing and this black-clothed beauty were pleasing to the eye. They looked like obedient and easily deceived girls. As for the man, he could just be sent away.
His gaze was lecherous, as if he had already stripped them naked with his eyes.
Nan Gong Huan glanced at Cui Zhejian, then at the little loli, thinking to herself, does this loli have such... peculiar tastes?
"Ah Huan, we need to get to the academy. If we don’t go now, it’ll be too late," Ye Sang called out to Nan Gong Huan, seeing that she was being held up.
"Coming," Nan Gong Huan replied, then turned to Yun Qing Qing and said, "Sorry, I’m in a hurry. Let’s meet again next time."
With that, she boarded the Cui Gu Heavenly Bird, and the three of them left without looking back.
Yun Qing Qing, however, blushed with joy, thinking to herself, Sister wants to see me again. She must like me!
Yun Qing Qing turned around and grabbed Cui Zhejian, her fingers piercing through his collar as she pointed in the direction the three had left and asked, "Which academy is in that direction?"
Cui Zhejian looked down at her hand, ignoring his torn collar, as a faint fragrance wafted into his nose, making him feel intoxicated.
Oh well, if he couldn’t keep that beauty, keeping this little loli would be fine too.
"In that direction, there’s only the Feng Xuan Royal Academy," Cui Zhejian answered without hesitation, cautiously trying to touch the loli’s hand, but Yun Qing Qing withdrew it the next second.
As her fingers, which had pierced through his collar, retracted, Cui Zhejian was pulled forward and fell face-first to the ground!
Bang—
Cui Zhejian wished he could just ascend to heaven on the spot.
Stolen novel; please report.
"I’m sorry, I..." Yun Qing Qing’s eyes were blank. She didn’t mean to do that... She couldn’t understand why this person was so fragile, even more fragile than a porcelain doll.
She looked up at the Cui Gu Heavenly Bird, now a black dot in the sky, and with a leap, she flew down the mountain like the wind, kicking up a long trail of dust as she headed toward the Feng Xuan Royal Academy, leaving clear footprints on the ground.
"Apologies aren’t necessary. Qing Qing can compensate in other ways..." Cui Zhejian finally managed to get up, puckering his lips as if to ask for a kiss, only to find that there was nothing but air in front of him.
"Where’s Qing Qing!" Cui Zhejian screamed, glaring fiercely at the four guards behind him. "Where did Qing Qing go?"
"Young Master, Miss Qing seems to have gone... to the Feng Xuan Royal Academy," one of the guards said with his head lowered.
"She went to the academy?" Cui Zhejian frowned at first, then smiled smugly. "I see! Qing Qing must know that I’m also at the academy, so she’s eager to complete the entrance exam and give me a surprise!"
"Qing Qing, I’ll be waiting for you at the academy! Oh, and that black-clothed beauty! She must be going to the academy too!" Cui Zhejian clutched his chest, his heart fluttering at the thought of spending nights with two beauties in the future.
With his unparalleled charm, he was sure he could conquer these two beauties!
"Who should be the main wife? Qing Qing was the first to meet me, so maybe she should be the main wife... But that black-clothed beauty’s looks are more to my liking. In all my years of wandering among flowers, I’ve never seen such a stunning beauty. Ah, it’s so hard to choose. Oh, and is that black-clothed beauty named Ah Huan? What a great name, what a great name..." Cui Zhejian looked intoxicated as he boarded the Cang Yue Eagle, preparing to pack up and return to the academy.
The four guards kept their heads down, not daring to speak, silently repeating to themselves that the young master was always right, and they would always stand by his side!
Nan Gong Huan and the other two had already flown far away on the Cui Gu Heavenly Bird, all of them feeling a bit excited.
"We almost got caught. Luckily, that guy wasn’t too smart," Ye Wan Jun flipped over and lay on the soft feathers of the heavenly bird, closing his eyes to carefully feel the power within him.
"I feel like that little girl really liked Ah Huan," Ye Sang recalled the way the little loli had looked at Nan Gong Huan, almost drooling.
"Her bloodline is extraordinary," Nan Gong Huan sat cross-legged, gazing into the distance. She was also thinking about that little loli. She could clearly sense that her bloodline was different from ordinary people.
Elder Ling chimed in from the space, "Did you notice that little girl’s immense strength? She’s a descendant of the Giant Spirit God, possessing power beyond ordinary people. She probably hasn’t fully learned to control it yet."
A descendant of the Giant Spirit God? Nan Gong Huan looked at her torn sleeve. Her strength was indeed impressive...
At that moment, there was a slight disturbance in the space.
Nan Gong Huan immediately sent her spiritual sense into the Di Ming Ring to investigate and found that the surface of the bell tower was covered in a thin layer of frost.
Cold air spread, and a chilly wind suddenly blew, sneaking into her collar. Nan Gong Huan couldn’t help but sneeze and quickly activated her spiritual energy to ward off the cold.
"Ahhh, help! Why did it suddenly go out of control!" Bo Jing Rabbit ran out, hiding behind Elder Ling and shivering.
"Master!" Xiao Jiu rushed into Nan Gong Huan’s arms, trying to warm up.
Yan Ji and Xue Ji also couldn’t resist this power and were pulled behind Nan Gong Huan, finally feeling a bit better.
Small icicles kept forming inside the bell tower, but if left unchecked, the entire bell tower would freeze into a giant ice sculpture!
"Perhaps it’s related to his lost memories. He can’t control this excess power, and only you, my disciple, can save him," Elder Ling shook his head and said.
"Me? How do I save him?" Nan Gong Huan looked at Elder Ling in confusion.
"You can use your spiritual platform to absorb the excess divine power from his body and convert it into your own. This way, you can also advance to the third spiritual life. Two birds with one stone, hehehe," Elder Ling chuckled mischievously. His disciple had stumbled upon another great opportunity.
"Then I’ll summon my physical body inside," Nan Gong Huan handed Xiao Jiu to Yan Ji, her consciousness returning as she immediately stopped the Cui Gu Heavenly Bird.
She could still feel the icy chill coming from the Di Ming Ring, the ring itself cold to the touch.
