Returning Home! / Taking It Easy

Her voice was very soft, but everyone heard it!

The next moment, thunderous applause resounded throughout the entire venue!

Mo Ran's original intention???

(I only tried to complete it when I started writing the third volume. Now my writing ideas are much clearer. It's a slice-of-life, casual story with almost no suspense in the early stages, but there might be some later...)

(I've included some of the author's private messages and group chats...)

I'm currently working on the manuscript for the third volume. If I update frequently, I should be able to make up for a lot of the shortfall. I'll try to write tens of thousands more words.

I haven't even reviewed what I just wrote yet, but I'm still very grateful for everyone's monthly tickets and tips! If you really like it, you can use a library coupon, or @ me in the group and I'll send it to you directly!!

With best regards!

Chapter Eighty-Four: The Swallows Return Home!

Having obtained the items, Ye Xiaoying didn't want to linger.

She had lost face so badly, and now that the mission was complete, of course she needed to hurry back and hand over the duties. Otherwise, if anything else went wrong, she would feel like dying.

After glancing at Bingtang Lingxin again, Ye Xiaoying finally realized that not all Astral Mark Girl were bad. It seemed she would need to ask them in advance in the future.

After standing up, Ye Xiaoying bowed deeply to Bingtang Lingxin, and then disappeared in an instant with a flash of purple light.

However, after experiencing so much, the audience has developed a certain immunity and has gradually become numb to magic.

However, once everything settled down, the cheers and shouts of joy began to resound continuously.

Ling Feng and the others had witnessed the entire martial arts tournament, and they couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Tang Ling couldn't help but hug Liu Yinxuan and cry, "Waaah~ It's so touching! I feel like she's an angel. I've been completely captivated by her kindness and beauty. Even though she's our enemy, I really admire her so much!"

Tang Ling cried her heart out, tears streaming down her face. Liu Yinxuan patted her back with a touch of heartache, "Don't be sad. We'll be leaving soon. We don't belong here after all, and we won't get involved with anyone."

"The class monitor is right. There will always be another chance to come. We've gained a lot this time. Of course, if we come again, no matter the outcome, I will definitely participate in this Martial Arts Tournament!"

Lan Yuxin genuinely felt a little regretful, but she was still full of hope for the future.

How old are they? They're just high school students.

Who can predict the variables that may appear in fate?

Even knowing that I might lose badly, I still muster the courage to face it.

To knowingly do something impossible, or to knowingly do something that is impossible, is a question posed.

That's right. How will you know how badly you'll lose if you don't try?

Just jokes and laughter are fine...

All good things must come to an end Tang Ling and her companions had their own plans, and the two groups soon parted ways.

After witnessing these battles, Su Xiaoxiao had a change of heart and no longer wanted to go out and have fun.

This world is amazing. It has magic, martial arts, and the ever-changing cultivation skills of the Astral Mark Girl. Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

Zhao Ping followed at the back of the group, secretly resolving that once he returned, he would definitely seek out a master to learn martial arts.

After this lesson, he also learned a lesson: only when he is strong enough will he not be bullied by others, and only then will he have the ability and conditions to do good and stop evil. It is impossible for someone to protect him every time.

"Sister Xiao Xiao, can you teach me magic?"

Looking at the three people who were always in front of him, Zhao Ping ran up and stood in front of Su Xiaoxiao. His sincere and determined gaze showed his resolve. Even if Su Xiaoxiao rejected him, he would not give up.

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a strange sense of amusement.

"Well, Xiaoping, magic is a privilege unique to Magical Girls; it can't be taught."

Ling Luoluo listened from the side and nodded in agreement.

Sure enough, Zhao Ping looked dejected and listless upon hearing this.

Perhaps Su Xiaoxiao felt that undermining someone's confidence was inappropriate, so she offered another glimmer of hope.

"Don't be so disappointed. Even if you can't learn magic, you can still try your best to get into Magic University. You'll be rewarded with some magical items. Besides, there are plenty of boys there, so don't worry about any problems."

"Magic University? Ugh, for a slacker like me..." Zhao Ping sighed as he talked about this, but he didn't want to miss any opportunity to get up close to magic.

"Forget it, it's just Magic University. I'll start working hard next semester!"

"Yes, yes, that's more like it! Young people should be full of energy! Young man, I have high hopes for you!" Su Xiaoxiao smiled and patted Zhao Ping on the shoulder with great confidence.

"Hehe, Sister Xiao Xiao, you'll have to give me some pointers then~"

"Of course, of course!"

Ling Feng was walking at the forefront, listening to the two people chatting about something or other, and he also felt something in his heart.

Sow dreams, reap hope; cherish dreams, and move forward with determination.

Everyone has ideals and pursuits, and goals and expectations to achieve.

Ling Feng's desires were quite simple: he yearned for the most ordinary and simple things in life, to be with the person he loved...

Without this Destiny Sign, he might have ended up like any other corporate slave, toiling away every day just to pay off his endless mortgage?

Is he even struggling to find a girlfriend? Or is he being pressured to get married?

But now, everything has changed; he has a net worth of over 50 million...

Ling Feng felt as if his life had lost its meaning!

By the way, he's also a terrible artist; he never even adds color to his line art!

And he's an author who almost ruined his short stories!

However, there's no rush; there's plenty of time to achieve it gradually in the future.

Let's take it one step at a time...

[Master, several new skills have been added to your skill list. Would you like to view them?]

"Isn't that obvious? Such an awesome skill, let me see it!" Ling Feng thought to himself.

[(Note: The power of a skill depends on the user's proficiency and skill level!)]

"So much??"

Ling Feng glanced at them and saw at least ten.

He hadn't expected Bingtang Lingxin to be so powerful. The Astral Mark Girl had reached High Tier, even more monstrous than Ye Xiaoying's Magical Girls, more magical than magic itself, almost like a cultivator.

Absurdly outrageous!

Bingtang Lingxin's every sword strike seemed to possess the power to destroy heaven and earth; it was simply terrifying!! (#?Д?)

After quickly glancing over it, Ling Feng was too lazy to continue reading.

The distance between the group and the inn wasn't very far, only about twenty minutes' walk. They walked and stopped frequently, and soon arrived at the Flower Has Money Inn.

Just as the group was about to go upstairs, Ling Feng suddenly received a text message from Bingtang Lingxin.

After looking at it carefully, it seemed to be an invitation, but it didn't specify what it was for. However, Ling Feng happily agreed.

When Ling Luoluo heard that Ling Feng was leaving again, she immediately became unhappy and ran over to hug him.

"Brother, please take me with you, Luo Luo won't cause any trouble!"

"Listen to me, Luo Luo, your brother just went out to take care of some things." Ling Feng didn't know how to argue, so he could only comfort her like this.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Ling Feng, seemingly pondering something, and then smiled mischievously, "Yes, your brother Ling Feng has some business to attend to. We'll just wait for him to come back!"

With Su Xiaoxiao's guidance, Zhao Ping finally understood! He then chuckled mischievously, "Luo Luo, Sister Xiao Xiao is right, your brother Ling Feng is going out (on business), so he can't bring too many people with him!"

"Hey! Don't think I can't understand the hidden meaning in your words!" Ling Feng was speechless. What if you corrupt the child? "Luo Luo, be good, you can go to Sister Xiao Xiao first."

"Okay, okay, brother, come back soon." Seeing that Ling Feng's expression had changed, Ling Luoluo mumbled a pitiful sound and reluctantly ran back.

Ling Feng waited quietly for the others to go upstairs before he walked onto the street.

He just couldn't figure out what these two were thinking.

Can't you be serious for once?!

Indeed, there are very few upright, model young people like myself left in this world!

Chapter 85 Leisurely and Content

Ling Feng left alone, and Su Xiaoxiao could roughly guess who he was going to see.

Based on the current situation, it seems to be the one who ultimately won the match.

She had noticed the eye contact between Bingtang Lingxin and Ling Feng before, although it was subtle, she wasn't oblivious to it.

The group arrived in Chongming City together. In this unfamiliar place, with no relatives or friends, who could they possibly meet?

She had spoken with Tang Ling and her group on the train before; they were just tourists.

After analyzing the situation, the only possibility that could be related to that young lady was Ling Feng, who had been missing for two days.

I guess they're going to catch up with old friends or celebrate?

Su Xiaoxiao was understanding and didn't ask too many questions. She just hoped that Ling Feng wouldn't suddenly disappear again, otherwise she would have to resort to severe torture!

After the closing ceremony, Lan Five realized his own problems, so he decided to put aside his playful heart and seriously cultivate.

He pulled his distraught older brother along, and together they boarded the carriage for the return journey.

Lan Chengfeng felt a pang of melancholy, and it was at this moment that he truly understood the importance of his own strength.

Bingtang Lingxin is already so powerful; he doesn't think any woman would like a man weaker than herself!

While not necessarily true, personal strength is indeed crucial. After the elders and guest advisors brought back news of the competition, it stirred up an unprecedented wave among the major families.

Many family members and several core disciples began to cultivate more diligently, and even Lan Five began to go into seclusion and cultivate assiduously with Lan Chengfeng.

Mo Qingyu was not punished after returning to the manor.

The head of the Mu Family had his own plans. From this day forward, the daily cultivation time and activities of all Mu Family members would be doubled. Mo Qingyu was also forced into this arrangement, and the mansion was filled with wails of despair!

As for Mo Liyuan?

She has already begun her intensive seclusion, but it is unrealistic to expect to break through again in a short period of time. She needs to cultivate diligently day by day and also needs an opportunity to break through.

When the time is right, she plans to go out and gain experience, seeking opportunities.

As for Nan Muya, after Bingtang Lingxin won the final championship, she was overjoyed and carefree. Little did she know that she had already lost early on and had completely forgotten her original goal of participating in the competition!

It was nearing dusk, and the sunlight was no longer so intense and glaring. The light felt exceptionally soft on my skin, and even my mood improved.

The shimmering lake surface is like a beautiful golden veil, swaying in the breeze like fairies dancing gracefully.

Following the location sent to him by Bingtang Lingxin, Ling Feng arrived at the teahouse where the two had first met.

Before he could even enter, fragmented conversations could already be heard coming from inside.

"I heard that Miss Bing Tang has won the championship in this Martial Arts Tournament. I would like to offer my congratulations to Miss Bing Tang."

"Grandpa Fang, what are you saying..."

"Miss Bing Tang, you don't need to mind us. It's not easy to meet here today, would you like to sit down and chat with everyone?"
