However, Mo Fan didn't take them seriously at all and completely ignored them.

Seeing Luo Song chattering away, Song Xia interrupted them, saying, "Since everything's alright, let's leave quickly and find a place to camp and rest."

While the Imperial Capital Academy may not be exactly harmonious, at least they don't openly argue like this!

Isn't this constant babbling just making me a laughingstock?

"Yeah, I stink."

"I feel a bit dizzy and lightheaded; I guess I've used up too much magic energy."

"..."

As soon as Song Xia spoke, Jingjing and Zhao Mingyue immediately responded.

When they entered the tunnel, everyone was upright and full of vigor, but after leaving the tunnel, they were all exhausted and covered in dust. Fortunately, Tang Miao froze the walls on both sides in time, so there was no damage.

Even Tang Miao was left looking rather disheveled... The difference between Dark Serpent with you and not having Dark Serpent entering the Demon Beast territory is indeed significant.

After finding a place with a water source near the railway tracks, they first made a point of checking whether any Demon Beast or monsters lived in the area before setting up their tents to rest.

As night fell, the men sat on the ground around the campfire, the firelight casting shadows on their young faces. The night was quiet, broken only by the crackling of the flames. Suddenly, Zhao Manyan broke the silence, asking, "Are you sure they're bathing in the stream?"

"Yes, Mu Nujiao and Mu Ningxue are both here..."

A strong aura of hormones instantly enveloped the crowd, causing some to swallow hard, others to lick their dry lips, and still others to look in the direction of the stream.

"Peng Liang, why don't we send you to take a look? With your Shadow Element abilities, they shouldn't be able to detect you."

"This... isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Peng Liang said somewhat shyly.

Despite saying it wasn't good, Peng Liang's body language betrayed him, and he transformed into a black shadow, silently disappearing into the shadows of the woods.

After Peng Liang left, everyone realized that Tang Miao was nowhere to be seen!

"Holy crap, where did Tang Miao go?"

Has anyone seen him?

"It seems the goddesses disappeared after they went to take a bath?"

"..."

After a moment of discussion, the group exclaimed in unison, "Holy crap! What a beast!"

Everyone assumed that Tang Miao must have slipped away early on...

Mo Fan, who had originally planned to sneak over to witness some perks, felt a little cuckolded after overhearing their discussion.

But just as he was about to leave, he heard someone say, "Hey, why is that forest frozen over?"

"I guess Peng Liang got caught, hahaha, that idiot! Our captain's Ice Domain is no joke; it can detect any magical fluctuations within a certain range. Peng Liang's in trouble!" Xu Dalong burst into laughter.

Outside the woods, the sky was exceptionally clear, and the bright moonlight spilled into the forest, casting dappled shadows on the trees and shimmering light on the stream.

Beside them were some fragrant clothes, each a different color and stylish in design—some made of sheer fabric, some of lace, some form-fitting, some soft and comfortable...

Under the moonlight, in the stream, fairies, like spirits of the night, are playing in the water, their black hair cascading down... a beauty beyond compare.

The occasional bursts of sweet laughter made the quiet forest even more enchanting. The stream was crystal clear, flowing gently, and although it was a little cool, it felt exceptionally comfortable.

Tang Miao had been sitting in a large tree not far away for quite some time. No one knew what he was doing.

Upon sensing Peng Liang's presence, he deliberately tossed a pebble into the spot where Peng Liang had appeared, creating a slight commotion, before leaving.

"You're tired of living!"

At the same time, a cold voice rang out in the woods, and then a black shadow was seen flying away at an extremely fast speed.

"Ah!! Ah!!"

Zhao Mingyue, Bai Tingting, Mu Nujiao, Jingjing and the other girls realized what was happening and hurriedly submerged themselves in the stream, their large, panicked eyes scanning their surroundings.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Song Xia, who was guarding the shore, rushed over and asked, puzzled.

It looks like someone's there.

"There's Shadow Element aura fluctuating!"

"Who is Shadow Element?"

"Peng Liang, it must be Peng Liang!!"

Several male students from the Pearl Academy and Imperial Capital Academy were still chatting around the campfire about things they had encountered in the past, which, to put it bluntly, was all sorts of bragging.

But soon after, one of the beauties appeared with a cold expression, her eyes seemingly able to pierce through everyone's hearts.

"Who was that just now!" Song Xia shouted angrily, pointing directly at the group of men.

At this moment, everyone except Tang Miao was present. Mo Fan hadn't gone because he'd missed the beautiful scenery due to the Remnant Soul he'd received earlier...

"Who else could it be? We only have one person with Shadow Element abilities in our team..." Jingjing glared angrily at Peng Liang.

Peng Liang's face turned pale. He hurriedly stood up and explained, "I didn't! I was just in the woods, I hadn't even reached the stream when I was hit by something, and then you found me. I really didn't see anything."

"Peng Liang, I never expected you to be this kind of person. I feel ashamed to be your classmate," Zhao Manyan said with a dry cough and righteous indignation.

"Zhao Manyan, you..." Peng Liang suddenly felt like he had been betrayed.

Just now, every man here was urging him to feast his eyes, but when the girls questioned him, one of them suddenly started acting like a gentleman!

"Never mind, Song Xia wasn't keeping watch the whole time; he probably just loitered around nearby."

"Hmph, shameless!"

"With a human face and an animal heart."

"Hypocrite!!"

The girls angrily berated Peng Liang for taking the blame, while the men around the campfire nodded vigorously, determined to sell Peng Liang out completely.

While the girls were scolding him, Tang Miao emerged from the woods behind the house.

Upon seeing Tang Miao appear, both men and women looked over.

Tang Miao said in a serious tone, "Why are you all looking at me? Haven't you ever seen a handsome guy before?"

Upon hearing this, the group was all taken aback. Then, Jingjing looked at Tang Miao with a mixture of embarrassment and anger and said, "What were you doing just now!"

Before Peng Liang was discovered, they had all noticed movement nearby, but the other party was too fast, so they didn't notice anything...

Tang Miao remained calm, shrugged, and said, "Let's look at the stars. It's a rare opportunity to survive in the wild, and such a beautiful starry sky isn't something you often see in Magic Capital."

The group looked up and found that the starry sky here was indeed quite beautiful.

Unable to get anything out of Tang Miao, the girls had no choice but to angrily return to their tents.

As for Peng Liang, at that moment he felt like Dou E...

As the girls dispersed, Zhao Manyan trotted over with a cheeky grin and whispered, "So, whose figure is the best?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao's lips curled into a slight smile as she said, "Guess~"
