Nan Xian was speechless.Why did he feel that he had put himself in a very bad position because of his past actions?
Qing Zhu could not help but snort. It was clear that Qing Zhu took pleasure in Nan Xian"s misfortune.
Nan Xian looked at Qing Zhu coldly. Qing Zhu did not hold itself back in time and it froze mid-laugh.
"Master, will you believe me if I said that I laughed out loud because a spirit beast has farted just now?"
"Yes."
Nan Xian expressionlessly grabbed Qing Zhu"s tail then walked out of the forest. He acted like he was holding a dead snake. He was not even bothered by Qing Zhu"s hysterical cries and shouts.
"Young girl." Jiu Ming smiled wickedly. He moved closer to Feng Ruqing and whispered in her ears. He sounded happy. "We"re almost done here. I"ll meet you when we"re back at Liu Yun Kingdom."
Feng Ruqing frowned slightly. She subconsciously took two steps back.
Jiu Ming"s smile turned grim. "Young girl, I don"t eat human. Why are you so afraid of me?"
"I don"t like people getting near me except the state preceptor. I get gooseb.u.mps."
Jiu Ming"s lips twitched. He could not keep his smile on any longer.
He was infuriated by Nan Xian just now. "Even this young girl is like that…
"I"m really jealous of him…"
Feng Ruqing seemed to realize that she was rather harsh toward Jiu Ming. She laughed awkwardly. "I didn"t mean that. It"s just that I had acted instinctively. It"s true."
Jiu Ming"s facial expression worsened after looking at Feng Ruqing"s facial expression.
"What if I treat you as a woman in the future? It"s fine as long as you don"t get too close to me. I can"t help that. If you closer just now, I might not have been able to control my hand either. I might slap you. That wouldn"t be too nice."
Feng Ruqing would feel pressured if Jiu Ming liked men instead.
At least, she could treat him as a woman.
She just could not control herself whenever others got close to her.
Except the state preceptor…
The state preceptor was the only one who could get close to her.
Feng Ruqing never thought that she would slap the state preceptor when she was drunk for the first time. It was because the state preceptor got too close to her and she could not control her instinctive response at all.
Nan Xian walked toward them and he soon felt relaxed when he heard what Feng Ruqing had said. There was a soft smile on his handsome face.
"Where"s Xiao Qing?" Feng Ruqing looked at Nan Xian. She was rather shocked when she did not see Qing Zhu with Nan Xian.
"I threw it away."
Nan Xian"s voice was calm. He was only gentle when he looked at Feng Ruqing.
"Oh!"
Feng Ruqing did not say much. The snake would surely crawl back to them stubbornly no matter how they threw it out in the first place.
"These spirit beasts…" Feng Ruqing was quiet for a short while. Then, she turned and looked at the spirit beasts. "Do you want to go back to my place with me?"
The spirit beasts shook their heads after some consideration.
They were used to living in the forest. They could not stay in the princess"s manor.
Moreover, their family members were buried there. They were unwilling to leave the Forest of Spirit Beasts.
Feng Ruqing smiled softly. "I won"t force you if you want to stay. Later, you can line up and sign the contract with me. You can work for me in the Forest of Spirit Beasts. But, I need to give a warning to the reclusive world. n.o.body can do anything to the Forest of Spirit Beasts!"
