Chapter 251 Before the Competition
Evening Water Alliance, Youthful Hotel.
A young man with slicked-back hair and a cold demeanor slowly walked into the hotel. His venomous gaze made the guards at the entrance lower their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
The young man walked into the hall, stopped, looked around, and asked, "Where is Nangong Wan? Come out and see me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark ripple emanated from the young man's body and spread rapidly in all directions.
The two girls standing at the front desk looked panicked. Before they could react, they were swept by the dark ripples and immediately groaned, bleeding from their mouths and noses. They swayed and collapsed onto the front desk.
A rather stout elderly man suddenly flew out of the elevator, landed in front of the young man, knelt on one knee, and said, "This subordinate, Nangong Wan, greets Lord Yan Feng!"
Yan Feng glanced at Nangong Wan and said coldly, "The Sect Leader sent me on a mission to eliminate all those who are secretly targeting my Holy Sect, capture their souls and bring them back to the sect to be eternally burned in the Soul Lamp!"
Nangong Wan nodded in response, feeling as if Yan Feng's gaze was like two venomous snakes slithering over his body.
"Tell me, who has been targeting my Holy Church lately?" Yan Feng revealed a cruel smile, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent.
"I have prepared the list! Please take a look, Lord Yanfeng!" Nangong Wan presented a document wrapped in black kraft paper with both hands.
Yan Feng raised his hand, and the parchment fell into his grasp. He unfolded it, glanced at it, narrowed his eyes, and asked, "The Aodu Chamber of Commerce and the Ordinary Alliance have actually joined forces?"
"Yes, there was an internal strife in the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. When the former president, An Litong, was trying to quell the strife, he was assassinated by Wu Ye, a traitor among the Aodu merchants. The two died together, and another vice president, Feng Shuzhan, was also implicated. Now, the president of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce has been Li Yuanren, who was the former vice president."
"After Li Yuanren took office, he abandoned some of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce's industries to stabilize the situation. Then Shangguan Weier formed an alliance with him and together they attacked the industries of my Holy Sect!" Nangong Wan said hatefully.
Yan Feng raised his head slightly and said, "I understand. In that case, I will extract the souls of these two alive and send them back to the Holy Church to ignite their soul lamps!"
Nangong Wan quickly raised his head and said, "Before you arrived, I had already transferred most of the assassin guilds under the Aodu Chamber of Commerce to the border. Now, only some small fry remain among the assassin guilds under the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. Meanwhile, my subordinates have begun their counterattack on the Pingfan Alliance's side, and I believe we will see results soon!"
"Well, although what you did might have alerted them a bit, it doesn't matter. The Holy Church will crush them!" Yan Feng said to himself.
"Prepare a room for me; I need to rest well for the next few days." With that, Yan Feng walked straight toward the elevator.
Nangong Wan quickly followed Xiaopao and personally led the way.
In Xuan Ziwen's laboratory.
Xuan Ziwen distributed today's assignments to Ju Zi and the others, glancing in Ye Nanxiao's direction, somewhat surprised by the latter's quietness today.
Ye Nanxiao sat quietly in his seat. On the table were two soul tools that had already been made, emitting a faint light.
Ye Nanxiao, meanwhile, stared into the empty space, his thoughts wandering, a smile occasionally appearing on his face.
Ju Zi glanced at Ye Nanxiao, who was lost in thought, and walked over to Huo Yuhao, asking, "Little junior, did something happen to your brother today? Why has he been grinning like an idiot for so long?"
Huo Yuhao shrugged, spread his hands, and said, "I don't know, my brother has been like this since last night."
Xuan Ziwen put the lecture notes into his storage soul tool. Hearing Huo Yuhao's answer, he curiously came over, also wanting to know why the usually mischievous devil was so quiet today.
"Hmm, maybe," Huo Yuhao thought to himself as he carefully recalled the times when Ye Nanxiao would smile foolishly in the past.
"He must have met the person he wanted to see," Huo Yuhao said.
Xuan Ziwen repeated Huo Yuhao's words, then suddenly remembered the remote monitoring soul tool that Ye Nanxiao had taken from him at a great cost.
"So that's how it is. No wonder he specifically exchanged the remote monitoring soul tool with me before. This kid has quite a long-term plan!" Xuan Ziwen laughed.
Ju Zi looked at Xuan Ziwen and asked in confusion, "What does Ye Huli need that remote monitoring soul tool for?"
Huo Yuhao smiled and lowered his head to work on today's assignment, while Xuan Ziwen walked towards the door, saying as he went, "I still have to teach the new students, I'm leaving now, Ju Zi, you watch the lab."
Ju Zi responded and turned to look at Ye Nanxiao, who was still grinning foolishly. She already understood Ye Nanxiao's purpose in taking Xuan Ziwen's remote monitoring soul tool.
She remembered that Ye Nanxiao had a girlfriend, but was Xuan Ziwen's remote monitoring soul tool really that far away? It spanned two countries.
Keke let out a wail and went to Huo Yuhao to complain about how much homework Xuan Ziwen had assigned that day.
Fifteen minutes later, Ju Zi put down her orange carving knife, placed the carved core magic circle on the table, and said softly, "Finally, half of the work is done. Keep up the good work, and I can go grab a seat right when it's time to eat!"
Orange cheered herself up in her heart and habitually turned her head to look at Ye Nanxiao's position.
Ye Nanxiao remained in the same position, his eyes glazed over, lost in thought, his silly grin growing even more pronounced.
Feeling a sudden surge of irritation, Orange picked up another piece of rare metal, preparing to begin carving.
The orange carving knife flew across the rare metal, though the patterns on it were somewhat chaotic.
A slight metallic cracking sound rang out, and Orange suddenly realized that the rare metal in her hand was damaged.
Discarding the damaged rare metal, Ju Zi tossed a purple-skinned orange over, hitting Ye Nanxiao on the head.
Ye Nanxiao subconsciously reached out and caught the purple tangerine that Ju Zi threw to him. He turned to look at Ju Zi with a puzzled expression, then casually peeled the tangerine and started eating it, asking as he ate, "What are you doing?"
"Nothing much, just wanted to ask if you're ready for tomorrow's arena match?" Orange asked.
Ye Nanxiao was slightly taken aback, then asked, "Didn't you say you didn't care before? Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Orange blushed slightly. She hadn't really cared about the upcoming arena match before. She knew Ye Nanxiao must have already made preparations. The reason she asked was just to find a reason to start a conversation with Ye Nanxiao.
"Now I'm concerned. Knowing you as I do, you'll definitely open betting during the competition. I've been looking to make some rare metals lately." As she spoke, Orange looked away.
Would Orange Little Han really lack rare metals? Is that excuse really that obvious?
Ye Nanxiao saw through Ju Zi's excuse at a glance and said bluntly, "Speak, what is it?"
"I want to know if you took the teacher's remote monitoring soul tool to chat with your girlfriend?" Orange really wanted to ask this, but then she thought that whatever Ye Nanxiao did with the remote monitoring soul tool was none of her business, and she didn't seem to need to know about it.
Orange opened her mouth, her frustration intensifying. She glared fiercely at Ye Nanxiao and ran off to find Keke.
Ye Nanxiao looked confused, not understanding what he had done to offend Ju Zi recently, and then continued to drift off into his own thoughts.
Within Ye Nanxiao's spiritual sea, the Snow Empress waved her hand before Ye Nanxiao's spiritual body and said helplessly, "I say, you've been thinking about this for half a day now, are you really that agitated?"
Ye Nanxiao raised his hand to wipe the drool from the corner of his mouth, and only after feeling around did he realize that he was now in a spiritual state.
"What do you know! I've been begging Nannan for this for so long, and she finally agreed. How could I not be excited?" Ye Nanxiao said.
Xue Di leaned back on the fox-fur sofa, raised her hand, and a black and white outfit immediately appeared at her fingertips.
"In maid's clothes, do you think you can hide your little thoughts from me? Xiao'er," Xue Di said with a click of her tongue.
Ye Nanxiao coughed twice, feeling a little embarrassed, and his thoughts immediately cleared up.
"Why don't you give it a try?"
Now that Xue Di had seen through his little thoughts, Ye Nanxiao decided to stop hiding them.
Xue Di rolled her eyes at Ye Nanxiao. Having read the comic book for so long, she knew the purpose of this outfit.
She floated up and appeared before Ye Nanxiao, smiling sweetly, "Naughty boy, have you been thinking about these things these past few days? Missing your sweetheart?"
Ye Nanxiao chuckled a few times. Didn't Xue Di know what kind of person he was?
If Xuan Ziwen hadn't been abducted yet, he would have flown back overnight to comfort his two girlfriends and study the Tang Sect's soul tools in peace.
Instead of facing a greasy middle-aged man with hair like a bird's nest every day, and a silly orange cat who always tries to take advantage of her.
"Little Orange Girl is quite pretty too, not much less so than Little Phoenix and Little Rabbit. Don't you have any ulterior motives?" Snow Empress looked at Ye Nanxiao with amusement, her jade finger gently touching Ye Nanxiao's forehead, the frozen flower on her chest swaying gently.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the frozen flower a few more times.
The flowers are getting whiter and whiter, that's lovely.
"Ju Xiaohan is such a fool. It's good enough that she didn't take my stock. How could I dare to have any ideas about this lady?" Ye Nanxiao laughed a few times expressionlessly, still thinking about the rare metal, immortal herb, and soul tool that Ju Zi had taken from him.
Xue Di straightened her body slightly, the corners of her mouth gradually curving upwards, her eyes seemingly rippling with tenderness.
"I have no idea. I remember you were quite daring, even thinking of making me wear this?" A pair of black stockings floated in Xue Di's hand.
Ye Nanxiao swallowed hard, subconsciously imagining what it would look like if its owner wore these stockings.
Snow Empress rolled her eyes at Ye Nanxiao, pointed at the sea of spirit below, and a Snow Maiden statue modeled after herself rose from the seawater.
"Go and do your preparations for the competition, so you won't have such improper thoughts on your mind every day!" Xue Di grabbed Ye Nanxiao by the collar and threw him toward the Snow Maiden statue.
"Huh? Wait, I don't want to train my mental strength right now! I haven't had enough of daydreaming yet!" Ye Nanxiao wailed as the Snow Maiden statue grabbed him.
