Severing a Lock of Her Hair, Taking Ning Rongrong Skyward

"..."

After choosing his target, Xiao Chen smiled mischievously. He already had a plan in mind.

Although the Little Charm Card and other cards he had drawn over the years had completely maxed out his charm toward the opposite sex,

if he simply flew over and gave her a gift, there was still a chance of failure.

After all, Ning Rongrong was a Young Lady of Noble Family. Coupled with the Little Devil Girl Personality hidden within her and the possible Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect guards lurking in the shadows,

the difficulty was still quite high.

So, he needed to create a little accident!

"Suotuo City is right ahead. Xiao Wu, I'm speeding up."

"Mhm, Brother Xiao Chen, go right ahead~"

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, the God Slaying Sword suddenly unleashed countless invisible sword energies.

Wherever the sword energies passed, every leaf and branch was sliced in two, leaving behind smooth, even cuts.

Xiao Chen and Xiao Wu, meanwhile, transformed into a gust of wind the moment the God Slaying Sword erupted and vanished without a trace!

This feeling?

Just as Xiao Chen flew his sword toward Ning Rongrong, a powerful aura suddenly locked onto him.

Yet it vanished in an instant, as though it had never appeared at all.

Even so, Xiao Chen, whose physique rivaled that of a soul beast and whose senses were incredibly sharp, still caught it clearly.

At the same time, his God Slaying Sword began to tremble faintly, conveying its displeasure to him.

The person in the shadows also possessed a sword-type Martial Soul. Its quality was beneath the God Slaying Sword's, but because the other party's Soul Power surpassed Xiao Chen's, the God Slaying Sword was being suppressed.

There really was a guard near Ning Rongrong!

However, within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, someone with such formidable Soul Power and a sword-type Martial Soul...

could only be him.

One of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's two Titled Douluo.

Sword Douluo, Chen Xin!

Even so, Xiao Chen was unafraid.

Chen Xin's aura had only flashed for an instant. Clearly, he had thought Xiao Chen was about to attack Ning Rongrong, which was why he had released his aura.

After Xiao Chen flew past Ning Rongrong, the other party withdrew it.

As long as he did not harm Ning Rongrong, Chen Xin would not attack him.

However, Chen Xin did not know that Xiao Chen's objective had already been accomplished!

"Ah!"

The next moment, Ning Rongrong, who had been delighted that she could finally leave home and no longer study this and that, suddenly cried out.

A black shadow, carrying a fierce wind, had just swept past her.

The sudden ambush made cold sweat bead on her back. She was badly frightened.

Her body lost its balance as a result, tipping forward.

Just as Ning Rongrong was about to lift her foot and steady herself in time, a strand of sword energy wrapped in Soul Power lifted her body first.

"Sword energy? Sword Grandpa... no... who is it?!"

Ning Rongrong had initially thought Chen Xin had acted, but she immediately recognized that the sword energy was different. Her little face instantly turned wary.

Beneath her sleeve, she tightly gripped a Signal Flare that could summon nearby Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples for support.

"Whoosh!"

Xiao Chen did not answer Ning Rongrong. Instead, he flew his sword again and turned into a gust of wind.

In the end, he stopped three meters in front of Ning Rongrong.

"You?"

A glint flashed through Ning Rongrong's eyes.

The newcomer had sharp, resolute features. His white trench coat danced in the wind, and he hovered in the air atop a blood-red sword. Sword energies wrapped in Soul Power continuously circled around him, giving him an otherworldly air.

Among all the people her age Ning Rongrong had ever met, this youth was the most handsome and the most elegant!

While Ning Rongrong was distracted by Xiao Chen's overwhelming charm, Xiao Chen and Xiao Wu had already landed.

Then, he clasped his fists slightly toward Ning Rongrong.

"I was in a hurry just now and did not expect to accidentally hurt you. I cut off a lock of your hair, my lady. I truly apologize."

"Sorry, Brother Xiao Chen was flying too fast just now, but we really didn't do it on purpose."

Xiao Wu twitched her ears and spoke up as well, her face full of innocent sincerity.

Then, Xiao Chen took out a small box and added, "As an apology, please accept this hair accessory."

"...My hair?"

Hearing that, Ning Rongrong noticed the lock of hair beside Xiao Chen, held up by his Soul Power.

Her brows immediately furrowed, and she was somewhat unhappy.

As for an apology gift?

She was the Young Lady of Noble Family from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. What kind of hair accessories had she not seen before?

But very quickly, the displeasure in her heart faded and turned into amusement.

She was bored on her own anyway. The person before her was handsome and elegant, while his younger sister looked innocent and sweet. She could have some fun with them.

Ning Rongrong's Little Devil nature had awakened!

The next moment, Ning Rongrong lowered her hands and lightly tidied the hair by her ears that had been blown messy by the wind. Then she spoke softly to Xiao Chen and Xiao Wu.

"It's fine. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes."

"Still, since this is your apology gift, I'll accept it without standing on ceremony. I hope it won't cost you too much."

"It's only right. Please."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Chen immediately opened the small box.

He knew that Ning Rongrong's hidden Little Devil Girl Personality was about to start causing trouble.

Unfortunately for her, as long as she accepted his gift, he would definitely be the final winner!

"This hair accessory?"

Ning Rongrong had originally wanted to prank Xiao Chen, perhaps by claiming he had bought a fake and making him embarrass himself.

But her little mouth suddenly fell open, and a soft, fair hand immediately covered it. Her beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment.

So beautiful!

"My lady, are you dissatisfied?"

"No... It's very nice. Thank you."

Ning Rongrong suppressed the excitement in her heart and gave Xiao Chen a polite smile.

Then, she took the Love Charm Hairpin, her heart filled with fondness for it.

Very quickly, Ning Rongrong began to feel that Xiao Chen, who was handsome and possessed such an otherworldly aura, was actually not bad as a person either.

Forget it.

She would let him off this time and not mess with him.

"Ding!"

"Ning Rongrong has accepted the Love Charm Hairpin and has developed trust and goodwill toward the host."

"Ding!"

"Detected that Ning Rongrong has developed trust and goodwill toward the host. Ning Rongrong meets the standards of the Peerless Beauty System. Congratulations, host. Your physical attributes have increased by 25%."

Hearing the system's voice, Xiao Chen's mood immediately improved greatly.

Next, as long as he successfully entered Shrek Academy,

he would have the chance to spend every day with Ning Rongrong, continuously increasing her goodwill toward him and strengthening his physical attributes!

"Hello, my name is Xiao Wu, Wu as in dancing. This is my brother, Xiao Chen."

"Are you also going to register at Shrek Academy?"

Xiao Wu hopped out from behind Xiao Chen and looked at Ning Rongrong, asking with an innocent expression.

Ning Rongrong politely replied in a soft voice.

"My name is Ning Rongrong. Are you two as well?"

"Yes, yes! Rongrong, I'd say this is what they call no fight, no friendship. We..."

Seeing that Ning Rongrong would be their future classmate, Xiao Wu's big-sister personality immediately kicked in, and she began chatting freely with Ning Rongrong.

Before long, the two were chatting away together.

Not long after, the two girls' laughter echoed through the forest, pleasant and melodious like music.

Seeing this, Xiao Chen did not interrupt them and quietly stood to the side.

With Xiao Wu helping him out, it would be easier for him to grow closer to Ning Rongrong afterward.

"Oh, right!"

At one point, Xiao Wu suddenly spoke.

"Rongrong, Brother Xiao Chen's sword is so long, and it flies really fast. It's super exciting! The first time I tried it, I felt light as air, like my whole body was about to fly into the sky!"

"Do you want to try it? It'll feel so good you'll fly straight to heaven. It's really fun!"

"..."
