“Miss Leng doesn’t have a flying beast?” Xiao Bing asked again.
“There is! However, my flying beast is in closed door cultivation, so I can only trouble my two legs. ” Leng ruoxue said helplessly. She was speaking the truth! Because his flying Beastie was indeed in seclusion!
“I see, then use mine! Otherwise, I don’t know when we’ll be able to reach nightless city. ” Xiao Bing didn’t doubt him this time, but suggested.
“I’m sorry, I’m sick of flying beasts. ” Leng ruoxue’s beautiful face was filled with apology.
Her words made Xiao Bing! Little angry. In his entire life, he had never heard of cultivators who could make their flying beasts unconscious. Hence, he did not believe Leng ruoxue’s words at all. However, since Leng ruoxue had already said so, he could not possibly force her to sit on his flying beast! Although he really wanted to do that, he did not want to ruin his relations.h.i.+p with Leng ruoxue. However, he was also feeling rather depressed. After all, he was still a divine Emperor! He also had the G.o.d lord’s estate as his backing. He had never received such treatment before!
However, even though he was angry, as he looked at Leng ruoxue’s beautiful face, he could not vent his anger no matter how much he wanted to. Her beauty was misleading!
Following that, Xiao Bing walked side by side with Leng ruoxue without saying a word. The dark Tiger King and his wife followed behind them.
In the evening, Leng ruoxue saw that the sky was already dark and suggested that they find a place to camp.
Although Xiao Bing was depressed, he did not object. However, he did not know when they would reach nightless city at their current speed.
Leng ruoxue didn’t care what Xiao Bing was thinking. In any case, she was going to rest, stop, eat, and sleep.
After finding an empty s.p.a.ce, Leng ruoxue set up her tent and had a simple meal before going to sleep in her tent.
Xiao Bing, on the other hand, was sitting by the fire, deep in thought.
He didn’t know what had happened to him. Even if he was suspicious of Leng ruoxue, there was no need for him to follow her around like a fool, right? And if he really wanted to find out something, wouldn’t it be better to just bring her to the Divine Master’s estate? Why go through so much trouble?
He couldn’t explain his abnormal behavior. Even though he had a good impression of Leng ruoxue, he didn’t think that he was someone who had the patience to coax women. So what was he doing now?
Xiao Bing was in a dilemma the entire night, while Leng ruoxue had already entered the bracelet and had a good sleep.
The next day.
The two of them continued on their journey. The Tiger King couple had entered the house yesterday, but they were not released today.
“Little girl, please let me out!” The dark Tiger King kept on transmitting his voice to Leng ruoxue. It was so noisy that Leng ruoxue could not stand it anymore. She directly blocked off the house from the outside world before her heart finally calmed down.
Just like that, Leng ruoxue and Xiao Bing walked slowly. After close to ten days, they finally arrived at the nightless city.
When they entered the nightless city, it was daytime, and there were very few pedestrians in the city. However, there were two extremely ugly old men who were particularly eye-catching, because they were like ants on a hot pan, constantly walking back and forth at the city gate.
“My good daughter! You’ve finally come! Your father has been waiting for you for many days. ” A tall and ugly old man gave Leng ruoxue a bear hug the moment he saw her. He pulled Leng ruoxue into his arms and said with tears flowing down his face.
“My good granddaughter! Grandpa has missed you so much. ” The other old man pulled Leng ruoxue out of the arms of the old man who claimed to be her father and said with tears in his eyes.
When the two of them saw Leng ruoxue, they were extremely excited. Leng ruoxue was only stunned for a moment before she called out sweetly,””Grandpa, father! Why are you guys here?” These two people were none other than the master of the ning family and the first elder of the craftsmen’s Guild who had taken the disguise pill.
“We missed you.” The two of them said in unison. Then, the master of the ning family explained,””I heard from your sister that you’re going to nightless city to see fireflies. We’re worried, so we followed you to see.”
“Oh! Big sister is home already?” Leng ruoxue asked on purpose.
“We’re home. Your sister’s business is all done. But you, why are you so slow?” The master of the ning family asked.
“I’m sick of flying beasts! So, we walked here. This is already considered fast. ” Leng ruoxue said with a smile, but she was a little depressed in her heart. After nearly ten days, she still couldn’t get rid of this guy. She was really a failure.
Even though she had thought of entering the bracelet and never coming out, she was afraid that Xiao Bing would become even more suspicious. After all, Xiao Bing was keeping a close eye on her. If she went missing for no reason, it would only make him more suspicious. So, she could only swallow her anger and follow Xiao Bing on the journey. Fortunately, Xiao Bing had been well-behaved along the way. Otherwise, she would not mind making him the first eunuch in the Divine Master’s estate.
“AI! My poor child! You must be exhausted!” The master of the ning family said with heartache. His G.o.ddaughter had really put in a lot of effort to get rid of that Xiao Bing! However, it did not seem to have any effect, because he had already felt a probing gaze.
“It’s alright! It’s all thanks to Sir Xiao Bing’s care along the way. ” Leng ruoxue had not forgotten about Xiao Bing’s existence.
After hearing Leng ruoxue’s words, Xiao Bing smiled apologetically and said,””Miss Leng is too polite. This is what I should do.”
“How is this what you should do? don’t talk nonsense, my daughter is not married yet! If you can’t get married, you’ll have to take responsibility!” The master of the ning family said unhappily. He was really angered by Xiao Bing’s words. As his father, he couldn’t stand any young man saying that it was his duty to take care of his daughter. Wasn’t that clearly trying to s.n.a.t.c.h his daughter away from him? This was preposterous!
“If miss Leng really can’t get married because of this, I’m willing to take responsibility.” Xiao Bing seized the opportunity and said rudely.
“You wis.h.!.+” The master of the ning family was even angrier. He really didn’t expect Xiao Bing to be so thick-skinned, but now that he thought about it, it seemed that his words were a little inappropriate, but words that had been said were like water that had been spilled. Even if he wanted to take them back, he couldn ‘t, so he could only sulk alone.
When Leng ruoxue heard their conversation, the black lines on her forehead immediately slid down. Although she was a little angry, she was smart enough not to interrupt. Otherwise, it would only make things worse.
In fact, Xiao Bing had his own reasons for saying that. He had been looking at the two old men for a long time, but he couldn’t tell what their cultivation levels were. He couldn’t help but feel puzzled, and there were only two possibilities if he couldn’t tell. One was that they had equipment that could hide their cultivation levels, and the other was that their cultivation levels were higher than his.
He would rather not be able to see through the cultivation base of the two old men because they had equipment that could hide their cultivation base than to see their cultivation base above his. He was already an immortal Emperor. If their cultivation base was higher than his, it was self-evident what kind of strength they had. Therefore, he spared no effort in saying such ambiguous words to test their cultivation base.
