Chapter 524 - Forgetting His Own Injuries
A mischievous idea passed in her mind. She took his pile of clothes and began to shred them.This bastard liked to act gently and was also well-groomed. So what about letting him run around naked, making him lose face!?
But Xue Yilan just stared at her. And then chuckled: “Little Xuemo, do you like my body so much that you want me to stay always naked?… Well, you can look as much as you want even without destroying my clothes.”
Ning Xuemo leaned her head sideways to glare at him. She then answered: “Ah yeah? Well, your body is not bad, in fact. But only for me to enjoy it is pitiful… so why not making more people see you? It would be better.”
What an asshole. Too bad that cameras didn’t exist in this world. Or else, she would have taken photos of him from every angle, and then exposed him on Microblogs, WeChat and Forums. However, even if she couldn’t, she could instead shout for people to come and witness his embarrassing and unpleasant moment. And so, she immediately got up while clapping her hands once, heading towards the door.
“Little Xuemo, you know, I have one desire to fulfill… So unlucky there is no-one in the surroundings… If you are searching for people, you won’t find anyone.” Xue Yilan sighed with regret.
Ning Xuemo paused for one second. She hummed and then rushed outside.
Was she about to escape?
A glimmer flickered across his eyes… If that was her intention, then she would regret it… he thought as he smiled. After being left alone in the broken temple, everything was quiet. Xue Yilan slowly got up and sat in a meditative position, seizing every minute for recovery.
Han Shanyue’s magical counteract in the Imperial Palace wore him out a little. Not only did Han Shanyue broke a string, which was unexpected for such a powerful zither, but even injured him. In this case he knew he had to temporarily retreat. And since he treasured his guqin a lot, he didn’t hesitate to absorb other Zither Master’s souls to repair his own qin. So, when he heard that there would be a famous zither meeting in Daliang City, he supposed there would be a dozen of them and headed here.
It turned out that Daliang City was holding its annual guqin competition and most of the well-known players were gathered on the same ship. He felt that this was a good opportunity, and thus he approached the ship, and caught Ning Xuemo’s aura… He wasn’t sure about his emotions towards her, so he set up a Gear Net rearward in advance, careful of every step he planned…
She was under his sight while he was hidden. That crafty little fox of a Ning Xuemo fell in his net indeed, becoming his captive. Being able to grab her once more made him happy, and even more when she got angry at him… He was so joyous that he almost forgot about his injuries. If he simply collected all the souls at that time on the ship, then he would have been able to subdue them. But Ning Xuemo’s presence added too many variables. So he spent some of his telekinesis to transport the ship in the Chaos River, just to not get any disturbances. And in fact, his plan went smoothly as he predicted, without a hitch.
