The teenager delivering the food had just left when the door was pushed open again and this time a ******** person entered.
Apart from Ning Cheng, the other five teenagers who saw this ******** immediately all stood up and bowed, while respectfully calling out, “Elder Lan ……”
This ******** only nodded slightly before looking at Ning Cheng and asking, “Your name is Ning Cheng?”
Ning Cheng felt the severity in this ******** eyes and was somewhat confused as to what this elder was looking for him for.
“You come with me.” This ******** did not wait for Ning Cheng to answer and had already turned around and went out after finishing his sentence.
Ning Cheng followed this ******** somewhat unsurely out of the room, and after turning a few corners on the ship, he entered a luxurious room that was a little bigger than the one the six of them had previously stayed in.
After sitting down on the main seat of the room, this ******** did not ask Ning Cheng to sit down, but only asked in a light voice, “According to An Yi, it seems that you and An Yi are not a relationship between a real cousin and a cousin, it is just that An Yi’s master instructed you to take care of An Yi before he left.”
Ning Cheng did not say anything, he knew that with An Yi’s simplicity, it was not unusual to be asked these things in front of these old and cunning guys. In his heart right now, he only hoped that An Yi would not tell anyone about his yellow mane or the fact that he absorbed spirit stones very well.
Once An Yi told all this out, he would have to wait for his death. Ning Cheng believed that An Yi should know what was good and bad, and that she should not take the initiative to talk about such matters without being sidetracked.
After this ******** finished speaking, he didn’t even wait for Ning Cheng to answer before saying again, “Whether you are An Yi’s cousin or not, I hope you won’t approach An Yi in the future. This is good for you, and for Anyi. An Yi has an unlimited future, your three impurity spirit roots, your greatest achievement is just gathering Qi, your contact with An Yi will only affect An Yi.”
Ning Cheng said in a light voice, “I want An Yi to have an unlimited future more than you do, but before that, I want to make sure that An Yi is really under the care of the Bright Heart Academy.”
Ning Cheng was certain in his heart that An Yi would be taken care of by the Bright Heart Academy, it was just that this ******** words were too much for him.
******** smiled faintly, “May.”
After saying that she took out a wooden medal and handed it to Ning Cheng and said, “Tomorrow night the ship will hold a welcome party for both An Yi and Yu Hongfeng, you can enter with this wooden medal, then you can look at An Yi in a corner, or you will understand what you should do.”
Ning Cheng took the wooden plaque and silently turned around and walked out of the room, not even bothering to say a greeting to this ******** person.
An extremely pretty young girl was rushing in at this moment, brushing shoulders with Ning Cheng who was exiting the room. She also took a special look at Ning Cheng, while giving a eek.
“Master, who is this person? So rude.” This pretty young girl stared at Ning Cheng’s distant back and asked the ********
******** frowned for a moment and said, “Although this person’s qualifications are poor, he is stubborn and extremely arrogant. He didn’t answer my words positively just now, and he didn’t even say hello when he left, so it looks like I can’t let him go to Ming Xin Academy.”
……
After Ning Cheng returned to his room, the few companions inside the room seemed to look at him in a somewhat odd manner, but no one came over to ask questions or strike up a conversation. Ning Cheng was in an equally bad mood and kept to himself, closing his eyes in his place to deduce the formation.
When Ning Cheng arrived at the party the next evening, the hall where the party was held was already full of people and bustling with activity.
Although Ning Cheng had come from Earth, he had not attended any dinners or parties, but he had seen countless of them on television. This was Ning Cheng’s first time attending such a party, there were no modern facilities here, but Ning Cheng was sure that the extravagance of this shipboard party was definitely not worse than any party on Earth.
Rows and rows of array lights set the whole party scene like a fairy land, and some young girls in colourful butterfly-like dresses carried various food trays and wine in various corners. The soft music was something Ning Cheng had never heard before, giving people an extremely soothing feeling of enjoyment upon hearing it.
None of the cultivators who attended the party were below the fifth level of Qi gathering, and there were even many whose cultivation level Ning Cheng could not even tell.
Le Bo Hong and the others also walked in with joyful smiles, greeting some people whose cultivation level Ning Cheng could not tell.
Apart from the few people that Ning Cheng knew, Le Bo Hong, the rest were almost unknown to him. Just at this time, a pleasant music sounded and under the hazy light, Ning Cheng saw An Yi.
At this moment, An Yi was simply like a princess, the set of cloth robes on her body had long since disappeared, replaced by a set of goose yellow dresses. Although her head was still wrapped in a white veil, it showed an air of immortal charm, setting off her already extremely beautiful face like a fairy.
An Yi walked into the hall with a smile on her face and a happy look in her eyes. It was clear that An Yi, who had never been exposed to such scenes before, was also very adaptable, and at least in her eyes there was no longer any uncertainty or unease. Lu Xue and Yong Gu Yun both accompanied An Yi all the time, showing that An Yi’s status would be somewhat higher than theirs.
As An Yi made her appearance, a round of applause broke out.
Following behind An Yi was a young man with a face like a crown of jade, who had a hint of pride in his eyes and walked with confidence. Ning Cheng didn’t need to ask, he could guess that this person should be Yu Hongfeng, a pure gold spirit root.
While standing on the stage to receive the welcome from the crowd, An Yi’s eyes were also looking around. Lu Xue whispered in An Yi’s ear, “Senior sister An Yi, these people are all the elite disciples and teachers of Ming Xin Academy, Ning Cheng will not come over.”
An Yi nodded her head and withdrew her gaze, a hint of gloom in her eyes.
“Actually, you shouldn’t have come aboard.” A bland voice rang out in Ning Cheng’s while ears.
Ning Cheng turned around expressively and saw a familiar young girl. This young girl was exactly the one he had seen yesterday when he went to that ******** place, at that time, he was coming out of the ******** room, and this young girl happened to barge in in a breeze. Even though he had only brushed past her, Ning Cheng still remembered it very clearly.
“At least I am relieved to know that my cousin is doing well.” Ning Cheng said with a faint smile, turning around to leave after he finished speaking. If he didn’t get on the ship, he would have died in Mango City long ago.
The young girl suddenly said, “I think you’d better get off the ship when it stops at the next stop. Trust my words, yes.”
With these inexplicable words, the young girl turned and walked towards the lively and bustling crowd in the middle of the party hall.
Ning Cheng frowned a little, he had some not-so-good feeling. He was just about to pick up the gla*s of wine on the table next to him and take a sip when he heard a familiar voice once again, “You’ve seen your cousin An Yi, she’s doing well, so you don’t have to worry about it either.”
“Thank you senior, I really don’t need to worry, junior bids farewell.” Ning Cheng said as he gave up the action of lifting his wine cup, he turned his head back and indeed found that the person he was talking to was the one who had given him the wooden plaque yesterday ********, only at the moment she didn’t have a half-hearted expression.
******** said blandly, “I asked you to come here for a visit, one because you are An Yi’s cousin, and another to settle your mind. I have some other things to find you, so come with me.”
That bad feeling in Ning Cheng’s heart grew stronger and stronger, but he had no room to resist and could only follow this ******** out of the party hall.
Half a column of incense later, a breeze blew, and only then did Ning Cheng realize that he was already standing on the deck at the back of the airship. Below the airship was an endless white cloud and blue sky, and those breezes were blowing in after pa*sing through the shielding formations on the airship. One could imagine that without these shielding formations, just by standing in this place, one would immediately be thrown off by the high-speed flying airship.
Looking at the boundless white clouds and blue sky beneath his feet, Ning Cheng felt a little dizzy, and at this moment, he completely understood what this ******** had called him to do here.
“You want me to jump down from here?” Ning Cheng’s tone became icy cold, asking a Qi gathering fourth level cultivator to jump from this high altitude, there was obviously no second way other than death.
******** nodded rightfully and said, “That’s right, you must jump from here, you have no choice.”
“Why? I’ve already agreed not to go looking for Anyi anymore.” Ning Cheng clenched his fist, he knew this was a straw man place, but this was a little too outrageous. Just because he knew An Yi and An Yi was a pure spirit root he had to be killed, how could there be such a reason in the world? It seemed that if he lived, Anyi could not cultivate in peace.
“For the sake of Anyi’s future, it is my duty to help Anyi cut off her mundane karma. You don’t have to think about resisting, I can tell you that I am Lan Yingyue, an elder of the eighth level of Qi Condensation of the Ming Xin Academy. You are a fourth level Qi gathering cultivator, I don’t even need to move to make you go down from here. You are An Yi’s cousin, I am not willing to force you, so jump yourself.”
********’s tone was expressionless.
“Haha ……,” Ning Cheng laughed loudly, “You’ve become a b*tch. You want to set up a pagoda, you’re not willing to force me, I pooh.”
“You seek death ……,” the originally calm and incomparable Lan Yingyue’s body was filled with killing aura after hearing Ning Cheng’s words.
Knowing that he was powerless to resist, Ning Cheng walked to the edge of the ship and stared at Lan Yingyue and said word by word, “Lan Yingyue, I don’t need you to do it, I’ll pick it myself. One day, you will regret what you did today, you b*tch. Son of a ……”
When Lan Yingyue heard Ning Cheng once again call her a b*tch by name. When he heard Ning Cheng call her a wh*re again, he was so angry that his body trembled, not waiting for her to make a move against Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng had already taken the initiative to jump down from the edge of the ship, he knew that and facing Lan Yingyue, he had no second way out except jumping down.
The speed of the airship was extremely fast, once Ning Cheng jumped down, the airship was already far away. Lan Yingyue still could not quell the anger inside her heart, she did not expect a small thing at the fourth Qi gathering level to dare to humiliate her like that. If she could fly, she would definitely fly out of the ship and grab Ning Cheng back again, tearing him apart inch by inch.
