Thanks for the Monthly Ticket!
After hugging Mu Nujiao and Zhao Manyan, Tang Miao walked openly toward Mu Ningxue.
The moment Mu Ningxue saw Tang Miao approaching, a blush crept onto her stunningly beautiful face...
Because she had already anticipated what was going to happen next!
Tang Miao did not disappoint her; as soon as she realized what was happening, he reached out and pulled her into his arms.
With the warm, soft body in his arms, Tang Miao felt a surge of pleasure. Especially when he thought of that day, with her bouncy, Ruan Ruan, and perfectly sized body... hehe... a surge of lust was about to erupt uncontrollably.
However, he knew when to stop, and before Mu Ningxue could realize something was wrong, Tang Miao released her soft body.
Although he had saved her several times, Tang Miao could tell that Mu Ningxue was not in love with him.
Sure enough, the cold beauty and the Big Rabbit were two opposites.
After Tang Miao released Mu Ningxue, she saw Mu Nujiao pouting behind her, seemingly a little dissatisfied, and said, "I'm fine now. You guys should rest too. We can go back to the city tomorrow."
The three nodded in unison, but neither Mu Ningxue nor the other two mentioned "Mo Fan."
After all, they had searched for him, and Mo Fan was still alive or not depended on his own luck.
Nothing more was said that night, and in the early hours of the next morning, the four of them embarked on their journey to leave this place.
Zhao Manyan said he didn't want to stay in this godforsaken place for even a day longer!
Putting aside the horrors of Demon Beast, the mere sight of Tang Miao and his two companions exchanging glances was enough to make this carnivore feel a sense of impending doom...
Most importantly, there are clearly two goddess-level girls here, but neither of them has a relationship with him!
Being with Tang Miao, he felt a deep sense of defeat. His previous domineering attitude towards women had been utterly crushed during this trial in the Barren City...
Gradually, the four of them finally made it out of the Barren City and back to the road they had come from. The sky had completely brightened, and there were some birds chirping in the woods outside the city. The sounds were very pleasant, as if they had slightly diluted the deathly atmosphere in the Barren City.
At first glance, there were still those train tracks covered in moss and weeds, stretching through the woods into the distance, leading to the city that was like paradise to the three of them.
Of course, Tang Miao didn't really want to rush back, after all, this was a great place to make money.
Now that he had the strength to escape unscathed, he was even more eager to hunt down Demon Beast in the wild.
However, the three of them definitely couldn't do it, and even Tang Miao wasn't confident that he could ensure their safety while leading them through this Demon Beast place.
That's why he decided to go back to the city with them.
"Splash..."
"Splash..."
Beneath the white clouds, turbulent air currents swept past rapidly, and the sound of flapping wings drifted by, parting a line of sky-blue in the clouds...
A man dressed in the same military uniform as Lu Nian before flew towards them, flapping his wings vigorously.
The man was handsome with a noticeable stubble. Even with his collar turned up, a very prominent scar could still be seen running from his neck down to his chest...
Upon seeing the newcomer, both Mu Nujiao and Zhao Manyan panicked! Having witnessed the arrival of that devil Lu Nian, they were instinctively afraid of this Military Mage...
"Chief Instructor Zhan Kong?"
After seeing who it was, Mu Ningxue muttered something.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Manyan, "Goddess Mu, do you know him?"
Mu Ningxue nodded, then looked at Tang Miao and the other two and said, "He is Zhan Kong, our head instructor of Bo City!"
Mu Ningxue was a little curious. Shouldn't this chief instructor be in charge of the Southern Military Department? Why was he here on the Dongting Lake Plain?
Zhan Kong stopped in front of them, glanced at the four of them, and finally looked at Mu Ningxue, asking, "Are you alright? What happened to that devil Lu Nian?"
Of all the people here, Zhan Kong only knew Mu Ningxue. After all, he had been guarding Bo City for many years, and Mu Ningxue was from Bo City. As for Tang Miao and the other two, he really didn't recognize them.
Mu Ningxue didn't answer his question, but instead asked, "Chief Instructor, how do you know about Lu Nian?"
After the disaster in Bo City, Zhan Kong had been keeping an eye on Mo Fan, including asking Dean Xiao to take special care of him. Knowing that Mo Fan's Innate Dual Element would eventually be revealed, after learning about the terrifying military experiment Demon Element, he had been keeping an eye on the Military Department's movements on Lu Nian's side. Sure enough, they made their move.
Upon learning about this training opportunity, he rushed here. After all, it wasn't just Mo Fan who came for the training; Tang Miao was also there!
But it seems it's too late now. When he encountered Mo Fan on the way, and heard Mo Fan's explanation, Zhan Kong learned the number of dead...
Who could have imagined that Lu Nian would be so ruthless as to murder all the trainees here?
These students were all elite students from the capital and Magic Capital, with unlimited potential, but because of Lu Nian's ambition, they died tragically in this Barren City!
"..."
After hearing Zhan Kong explain why he had come, Mu Ningxue breathed a sigh of relief. She then briefly recounted the events of the past few days, omitting the fact that Mu Ningxue Tang Miao had broken through to the advanced level.
When Zhan Kong learned that it was a group of them who had worked together to defeat Lu Nian, his eyes widened in disbelief!
After all, even he wasn't confident he could defeat Lu Nian...
However, when he looked at Tang Miao, he felt that perhaps it really was possible. Just like when Mo Fan was training, didn't he kill a Ghost Wolf Beast all by himself?
Tang Miao, even more monstrous than Mo Fan, with his fully maxed-out cultivation in all four elements, coupled with the domain power of two Soul Seed, and the presence of Mu Ningxue, a prodigy of Bo City, it seems not impossible for him to kill Lu Nian...
Having confirmed that they were alright, Zhan Kong stopped wasting words and said, "Alright, now that Lu Nian is dead, I'll take you back to the city."
He couldn't be bothered to ask how they killed Lu Nian; after all, everyone has secrets, right?
Once this demon is eliminated, isn't that enough?
As for his corpse, Zhan Kong didn't intend to retrieve it. According to Mu Ningxue, it should have already been fed to the Demon Beast of this Barren City.
Led by Zhan Kong, they managed to travel relatively safely. Even when they encountered dozens of Demon Beasts, Zhan Kong easily annihilated them with a single high-level Fire Magic.
Tang Miao essentially became a secondary character, joining in on dungeons. Along the way, he would occasionally provoke some Demon Beast, since free labor was always welcome!
PS: I've managed to work hard these past two days, so I'll guarantee at least ten chapters on the day of release!
