One minute after Xiao Tian left, Ai Tutu's phone bombardment came nonstop. Tang Miao didn't answer a single call.
That girl hadn't managed to freeload, so who knew how furious she was. Wouldn't answering her call now be foolish?
As for sharing a place, there was still an entire semester to go. They could see how things went then~ Anyway, Ai Tutu was interested in him, so she wouldn't get away... If she did, then all he could say was that fate had been unkind.
Summer vacation was about to end in the blink of an eye. During this time, although Tang Miao hadn't broken through in any new element, his control over his Star Seeds had grown increasingly proficient.
After finishing a day's cultivation, he was about to rest when his phone rang again. Tang Miao paused at the sound, then glanced at it. Seeing that it wasn't Ai Tutu but Tang Yue, he hurriedly picked it up.
Ever since that day, Ai Tutu had bombarded him with calls every day. She had practically never stopped... Tang Miao was starting to feel helpless. This Big Rabbit had so much stamina—he really wondered whether she was just as energetic when they were in bed.
"Tang Miao, I found Chao He. Come help me." Once the call connected, a mature, sexy voice came from the other end. It was so pleasant that his ears tingled.
"Okay, sweetheart. Wait for me!" Tang Miao, who had been bored with nothing to do, instantly perked up.
"Mm, call me when you arrive." It seemed that ever since that incident in Bo City, Tang Yue no longer minded Tang Miao's way of addressing her. Or perhaps he had already given her a sense of security.
Besides, the two of them already had feelings for each other, so there was no need to keep dragging things out.
"Got it~"
After hanging up, Tang Miao first checked the date. Once he confirmed it wasn't Tang Yue's period, he went to wash up.
To Tang Yue, this was a mission to capture a dangerous murderer. But to Tang Miao, this was the day he and Tang Yue would consummate their relationship. As for Chao He? One bolt of lightning would turn him to ash in minutes.
After Tang Miao arrived, Tang Yue came to pick him up.
Seeing Tang Yue come for him, Tang Miao hugged her tightly and rubbed against her for a while before asking, "You came to pick me up? Then where are we going to find that Chao He you mentioned?"
Tang Yue was left dazed and confused as soon as she arrived. It took her a moment to recover.
"Darling, it's lucky I came. You already fell into his trap without even fighting him." Tang Miao smoothed the strands of hair beside her ear and held her delicate face.
Clearly, just as in the original story, Tang Yue had fallen into Chao He's trap. She had been drugged!
Tang Yue's face was flushed, and she now realized that something was wrong. She hadn't noticed it earlier, but after Tang Miao flirted with her for a while, the drug's effects instantly flared up...
"I... oh~"
Seeing Tang Yue go limp in his arms, Tang Miao's heart stirred.
However, he ultimately still had to help her complete her mission. With no other choice, Tang Miao sent some Ice Element power into her. Once a cool sensation emerged, Tang Yue indeed felt much better.
"Whew~"
Tang Yue's breath was fragrant, and every moment she spent like this tested Tang Miao's mental resistance.
Tang Miao wanted to help her detox, but Tang Yue seemed to have seen through his thoughts. Looking at him pitifully, she said, "No, we have to take down Chao He first. It took so much effort to find him."
Tang Miao let out a faint sigh, then said, "All right, I understand."
Although Tang Miao agreed, he didn't take Tang Yue straight to find Chao He. Instead, he headed toward a nearby pharmacy.
Seeing that Tang Miao was going the wrong way, Tang Yue hurriedly said, "He... he should be going to look for the Spirit Seed. We're going the wrong way..."
As she spoke, she broke free from Tang Miao's grasp and jumped down. However, her entire body was weak. If Tang Miao hadn't used Space Element magic when she landed, she would have fallen straight to the ground.
Tang Miao walked over and held her in his arms again. "Even if we're going to capture him, shouldn't I buy you some medicine to help you resist the effects first?"
Tang Yue shook her head. Chao He was a murderer and, although he wasn't as dangerous as the Black Vatican, he was still utterly evil. Now that they had finally found a clue about him, they naturally couldn't let him go!
She immediately looked at Tang Miao pitifully. "No... no, Miao~ Go catch him... catch him first."
Although Tang Yue was about to lose her reason, that stubbornness was rooted deep in her heart.
With no other choice, Tang Miao could only agree. He then summoned Little White and rode it toward the place Tang Yue had mentioned.
Naturally, this frightened quite a few people along the way. But Tang Miao had no other choice. Tang Yue kept touching and biting him restlessly the entire way, so he had to keep her under control...
Little White wasn't slow. They soon found the location Tang Yue had mentioned, where a Spirit Seed might be. It seemed that a battle was also taking place there.
After recalling Little White, Tang Miao brought Tang Yue to a tree. Looking down, he saw that the battle had already ended. The victors were naturally those members of the Dongfang Family.
Just as the four of them were preparing to subdue the Spirit Seed, a figure stepped out.
He wore an utterly ordinary baseball cap and had a fairly handsome face. After the man walked out, the temperature of the chaotic air left behind by the magical battle actually dropped a few degrees. A chill pierced through their skin and sank into their bones.
The aura of a powerful expert and his cold killing intent revealed that this desperate criminal, who looked like a scholar, was in fact completely savage like a Demon Beast. His eyes swept over the four mages from the Dongfang Family without a trace of emotion.
"What are you supposed to be? You want to snatch something from my Dongfang Family?" one of the Dongfang Family disciples asked angrily.
They had just fought a hard battle, and their magical energy was almost depleted. Otherwise, why would they bother arguing? Wouldn't it be better to simply attack?
"You probably haven't heard my name before. Chao He!" The desperate criminal slowly removed the cap covering half his face, revealing a sinister and charming countenance. What was even more terrifying was the obvious mark on his forehead, as if it had been branded with a hot iron. People with such brands had mostly been sentenced to death by the Judgment Society!
"Chao He? Is... is that murderer?" another young man from the Dongfang Family with slicked-back hair couldn't help saying.
"Rumble!"
Just then, a peal of thunder rang out, followed by Tang Miao's figure appearing in the middle of the scene.
Looking at Tang Miao, surrounded by thunder and lightning, both Chao He and the four members of the Dongfang Family froze...
Clearly, one wave had barely settled before another rose!
For the four members of the Dongfang Family, this was obviously a nightmare... Chao He was also completely dumbfounded! An Intermediate Level Three Lightning Mage? And judging by the power of that lightning, he clearly wasn't someone to trifle with!
He knew someone had been following him, but shouldn't it have been a woman? Besides, if nothing went wrong, she should already have fallen into his trap. So how had a man appeared now? And a Lightning Mage at that!?
Chao He stared at Tang Miao in astonishment. "You... who are you!?"
When the four members of the Dongfang Family saw that Chao He and Tang Miao didn't know each other, they breathed a sigh of relief. Yet they were also somewhat worried. Surely this person wasn't a murderer, right? If he was, they were doomed... But if he wasn't, perhaps they could be saved...
