After saying that, she leaned even closer, her eyes filled with fervor, and asked, "Would you be willing to be my model?"
Feng Chi looked helpless, muttering to himself, "How come he even learned the word 'model'?"
He looked at Nan Xunran, opened his mouth as if to explain, but suddenly stopped. How could he explain this...?
Feng Chi frowned deeply, his mind racing. After a moment, he finally said, "... Boss, she means she'll make clothes for you and then have you wear them to show off what they look like."
Nan Xunran lowered his eyes and looked at Zi Ning. Zi Ning did not flinch and met his gaze openly. The two looked at each other quietly.
At that moment, a jade-like hand suddenly appeared between the two of them.
Nan Shuang strode forward Nan Xunran behind her.
Zi Ning frowned slightly, her expression showing some dissatisfaction. She clenched her fists slightly, as if she were about to make a move.
Seeing this, Feng Chi gently patted Zi Ning's shoulder and said in a low voice, "Control yourself, she's my boss's older sister."
Zi Ning froze for a moment, then slowly lowered her clenched fist.
She thought to herself, "I'm counting on this handsome human to be my model, so I absolutely can't afford to offend his sister."
Then, she turned her gaze to Feng Chi and asked, puzzled, "Elder Feng, what brings you here?"
Feng Chi casually said, "The secret treasure that you are required to protect."
Zi Ning was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and repeated, "Secret treasure?"
She didn't show any obvious reaction on her face; their previous patriarch Purple Shield Clan, was truly unreliable.
They have no idea why they are guarding the secret treasure or what its purpose is. It's truly baffling how they came to be the clan leader.
A legend has been passed down in the Green Wilderness that anyone who deciphers the secret treasure can escape the Green Wilderness.
However, the Purple Shield Clan had no intention of leaving this place, and had never had the slightest interest in the secret treasure; they were merely fulfilling their duty of guarding it.
Zi Ning frowned slightly and asked, "What do you want this treasure for?"
Feng Chi just opened his mouth and said, "We want to..."
Midway through his conversation, he suddenly turned to look at Nan Xunran and asked, "Boss, what are we going to do?"
Nan Xunran glanced at him indifferently.
Seeing this, Feng Chi quickly turned his head back, stiffened his neck, and said domineeringly, "Never mind, I just want it, are you going to give it to me or not!"
Zi Ning was speechless for a moment, secretly thinking, "This is truly the first time I've seen someone so arrogant in demanding a secret treasure."
Seeing her like this, Feng Chi lowered his voice and threatened, "My boss is much more powerful than me. If he gets impatient, your entire clan might be in danger."
As he spoke, he even made a throat-slitting gesture.
Zi Ning then turned her gaze to Nan Xunran, scrutinizing him carefully.
Judging from the cultivation level he displayed, it was truly rare for someone his age to possess such a level of cultivation. Moreover, Elder Feng never lied, so it seems this beautiful human is indeed formidable.
"You humans all want the secret treasure," Zi Ning said leisurely.
Feng Chi hardened, and he asked, "Are there others?"
Zi Ning nodded slightly and said, "A human came by two hours ago, but he hadn't changed his clothes, so I chased him away. I suppose he went to the Sharpfeather Clan."
After hearing this, Feng Chi paced back and forth, then looked up at Nan Xunran and asked, "Boss, what should we do?"
Zi Ning gently waved her sleeve and said, "No need to worry."
The patriarch of the Sharpfeather Clan will not only refuse to give him the treasure, but may even kill him outright, since he has been studying that treasure all along.

The plan is to leave the dungeon tomorrow, when the Sharpfeather Clan Chief goes there to personally execute him, under the pretext of helping him decipher the incomplete page, and steal the Yellow Springs Illusory Dream Remnant Page.

Nan Xunran said slowly, "One day."
Upon hearing this, Feng Chi immediately replied, "Yes, boss."
Then, he turned to Zi Ning, his eyes carrying a hint of threat. "Zi Ning, I don't have time to argue with you. Give it to me now, or I'll just take it by force."
Zi Ning sighed helplessly and said, "Fine, take it."
She knew in her heart that even if she disagreed, it would be of no use. Feng Chi was too strong; their entire clan combined was no match for him, not to mention the beautiful human in the picture. They simply had no chance of winning.
Then, she turned her gaze to Nan Xunran, a sly glint in her eyes, and said, "Beautiful human, let me try on a few clothes, and I'll give you the secret treasure, how about it?"
Nan Xunran smiled faintly, offering no response, but instead slowly turned her gaze to Feng Chi.
Seeing Feng Chi, Feng Chi frowned slightly and said to Zi Ning with a hint of dissatisfaction, "Stop negotiating! If this drags on any longer, the boss will really get impatient!"
