I've Been Craving You for More Than a Day or Two

On the other side, when they returned, Nan Jue also gave Mu Ningxue a reward. In the previous battle, she had saved Jiang Yu, Jiang Shaoxu, and Mu Tingying. Although she wasn't the one who ultimately led them out of the fray, everyone had witnessed Mu Ningxue's contributions during the battle.

Although the National Team lacks substitutes, they will still receive the necessary rewards.

Mu Ningxue didn't try to be coy; after all, she was really, really short of money right now...

It was already evening when Tang Miao returned. Although his trip had exhausted all his Space Element magic energy, the rewards were considerable!

Moreover, after looting the loot boxes, Tang Miao went to the Little Japan store. He hadn't made many moves all day, and thanks to his Demon Element, his recovery speed was extremely fast, and his mental state was naturally perfect.

After selling the recently acquired Commander-level Spirit Essence, four General Level Spirit Essence, and all the materials from the Commander Level Demon Beast, Tang Miao obtained 270 million in operating funds.

After buying baby formula for Flame Ji and Snow Woman, he had a little over 100 million left. There wasn't much else to buy with that money right now, so he returned.

Everyone was sound asleep by now, and Tang Miao didn't go looking for anyone. After all, Wangyue Qianxun, so he wasn't particularly craving it.

The next day, Tang Miao got up early as usual and appeared outside Mu Ningxue's room.

Of course, he wasn't a man who liked to get up early, but he knew that Mu Ningxue was about to reach a point where she needed care. Regardless of whether he could give her any love, he figured it wouldn't hurt to spend these days of truce with her.

However, when Tang Miao arrived, she found that the person inside was already gone...

Tang Miao then left East Sea War City and headed towards Tokyo. Of course, he didn't choose to take a car, but rode his Little Black horse directly towards Tokyo without any hindrance.

As for whether or not it has a certificate?

Tang Miao completely ignored them. When Tang Miao arrived at an auction house in Tokyo, it wasn't even open yet.

He immediately waited there, and more than ten minutes later, the silver-haired, aloof beauty arrived as expected.

The moment Mu Ningxue saw Tang Miao, she was completely stunned...

Somewhat confused, he asked, "You... how did you get here?"

Tang Miao replied, "I woke up early this morning and went to look for you, but you weren't there. So I called Little Black and we rushed here."

"What do you want from me?" Mu Ningxue didn't show much emotion as she glanced at Tang Miao and asked.

"I came to you because I know you need help right now. How could I miss this opportunity to build a good impression? After all, you know I've been eyeing you for a long time." Tang Miao finally cut to the chase and got straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, Mu Ningxue gave a self-deprecating smile.

She has now been abandoned by Mu Shi and no longer has the support of a major power... No matter how much ahead or surpassed others she was before, without resources, she desperately needs help. Because the gap that has widened now will only grow larger in the future...

Mu Ningxue wasn't stupid; she knew very well that many people in the team had already reached advanced levels, but they had never shown it, or were still exploring the trajectory of the constellations...

If you really think that others are also at the peak of the Intermediate Level and that they are the ones who might be eliminated, then you are sorely mistaken!

The time for replacement is fast approaching. Even those who haven't reached the high level will definitely receive tremendous support from their backers within this month. The Star River Vein will be poured into them like it's free. By then, the only one who will still be at the Intermediate Level will be Mu Ningxue!

During the training period, the competition between the National Prefecture Team not as intense as one might imagine. The real competition was within the teams themselves, due to the mechanism that one or two people would be replaced each time they arrived at a training ground!

Mu Ningxue, unusually, didn't even roll her eyes at Tang Miao's bluntness. She simply shook her head and said, "You know my situation..."

"I told you, I don't care." Tang Miao interrupted her before she could continue.

Mu Ningxue paused for a moment before continuing, "But you have more magic, so although you may be ahead of your peers now, what about the future?"

Hearing this, Tang Miao gritted her teeth, tears welling in her eyes... suppressing her heartache... but still calmly looked at Mu Ningxue and replied, "If I didn't have that ability, I wouldn't be here today. I'm not someone who would give up my own growth for a woman."

Mu Ningxue did not respond, and Tang Miao did not speak either...

After a moment, Tang Miao finally couldn't stand the atmosphere any longer and said, "Since we're all here, why don't we go inside and take a look around?"

Mu Ningxue thought about it and realized that she didn't have enough money to buy the Star River Vein. It would be better to buy something more practical that would help her improve, otherwise, there would be no point in saving the money. The market in East Sea War City was internationally renowned, with everything from scrap metal to rare treasures. It was a treasure trove of information, and many mages spent their savings there, hoping to find something good and become rich overnight.

"Um..."

After she nodded, Tang Miao naturally reached out and put his arm around her tiny waist.

Feeling the large hand on her waist, Mu Ningxue was filled with embarrassment and anger. She turned to glare at Tang Miao, who had a perfectly normal expression, thinking to herself: This bastard really doesn't treat me like an outsider!?

Tang Miao was completely unfazed by her angry glare.

Mu Ningxue naturally wouldn't let him be so intimate with her... But just as she was about to refuse, Tang Miao suddenly leaned closer and said, "If you won't let me hold you, then I'll kiss you right here until you agree."

As he spoke, Tang Miao licked his lips, as if he had spotted something delicious.

"You..."

Mu Ningxue gritted her teeth in anger, but in the end she still gave in... because she never thought this bastard was just talking...

The image of him saving her the first time was completely forgotten the second time they met. He was, in short, a utterly shameless scoundrel.

Although this man was shameless, Mu Ningxue never truly held a grudge against him for saving her several times. After all, it was unrealistic to truly sever all ties and never speak to him again. Just like that bow, whenever she used it, the terrifying backlash made her feel as if she would never see the sun rise the next day.

It was like when their National Team assembled and left; although Mu Ningxue had secured a substitute position, if Tang Miao hadn't been on the team, she probably would have turned into an ice sculpture on the way.
