Chapter 115 Ah Yin's Heart
"Walk!"
Gu Rong, enduring her pain, pulled up the distraught Chen Xin and, with a surge of spatial power, prepared to teleport away.
They were defeated, utterly defeated.
The only thing we can do now is to escape from here as soon as possible and bring this terrifying news back to the sect!
Hidden within this forest is a terrifying being whose strength has reached the level of a god!
Everyone moved.
Only Ning Rongrong, being a support-type Soul Master, was slow because speed was her weakness, and her legs went weak from being frightened, causing her to react a beat slower.
When she realized what was happening and tried to run away, she was already at the very back.
"Grandpa Sword! Grandpa Bone! Wait for me!"
Ning Rongrong let out a panicked scream.
Lin Ye watched the figures fleeing in panic, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Come and go as you please?"
"What do you take my Blue Silver Kingdom for?"
He didn't pursue Chen Xin and Gu Rong, letting them leave so they could go back and deliver a message.
But something has to be left behind.
Lin Ye's gaze fell on the girl in the pink dress who was running at the back.
He had a sudden thought.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
On the ground, countless blue silver vines, like living golden chains, burst forth from the earth in an instant!
Their speed was so fast that they overtook Ning Rongrong in the blink of an eye.
"ah!"
Ning Rongrong felt a tightness in her ankle, lost her balance, screamed, and fell forward.
Before she even landed, the golden vines, like serpents, quickly coiled around her, binding her hands, feet, waist, and body tightly, leaving only her head sticking out.
Immediately afterwards, the vines snapped shut, lifting her up from mid-air and bringing her right in front of Lin Ye.
"Let me go! You bastard! Do you know who I am?!"
Suspended in mid-air, Ning Rongrong was both frightened and angry. She struggled and screamed in a show of bravado but inwardly weak voice.
"I am the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School! My father is Ning Fengzhi! If you dare to touch me, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will never let you get away with it!"
Lin Ye looked at her face, which was flushed with anger, but his expression remained unchanged.
He simply picked up Ning Rongrong, who was bound like a rice dumpling, turned around, took a step, and his figure disappeared from the spot.
...
Lake of Life.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were talking to Liu Erlong.
Suddenly, the space rippled slightly, and Lin Ye's figure appeared out of thin air.
And Ning Rongrong, whom he casually tossed on the ground.
"Forestry, you're back."
When Xiao Wu saw Lin Ye, she immediately went to greet him happily.
Zhu Zhuqing's gaze fell on the girl on the ground who was writhing and cursing.
When she saw what the other person looked like, she was stunned.
"Ning Rongrong?"
Zhu Zhuqing's face showed a look of surprise.
How did you get here?
"Zhu Zhuqing?!"
Ning Rongrong also saw Zhu Zhuqing. She was stunned at first, then her anger intensified.
"Oh! So you're in cahoots with this bastard! Where did you hide Teacher Erlong?"
Xiao Wu was completely confused and looked at the forestry department.
Lin Ye briefly recounted what had happened.
After hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's face immediately darkened.
She walked up to Ning Rongrong, looked down at her, and spoke with a hint of disappointment in her voice.
"Ning Rongrong, do you know what you're doing?"
"The forestry department is our savior, and this is his territory. How dare you bring a Title Douluo to attack this place? You are simply ungrateful!"
"Savior?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong acted as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world, and arrogantly raised her chin.
"Zhu Zhuqing, get your facts straight! You're just a disgraced nobleman from the Star Luo Empire. What right do you have to lecture me?"
"I am the sole heir of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School! I am the future sect leader!"
"I think you all conspired to imprison Teacher Erlong and then try to seize this precious land!"
Even as a prisoner, her innate sense of superiority remained undiminished, and she completely disregarded Zhu Zhuqing.
"you..."
Zhu Zhuqing turned pale with anger at her words.
Lin Ye watched from the side, shaking his head.
He patted Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing on the shoulder.
"It seems this little princess needs to receive some proper education."
"I'll leave it to you."
After Lin Ye finished speaking, he ignored the spoiled young lady and turned to walk towards the direction of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
He wanted to go and see how Ah Yin was recovering.
Xiao Wu glanced at Ning Rongrong, who was still stubbornly arguing on the ground, and then at Zhu Zhuqing, who was quite angry. Her eyes darted around, and a mischievous smile appeared on her face.
"Zhuqing, don't be angry."
"The forestry department said we should give her a good 'education'."
"I have a good idea..."
Xiao Wu leaned close to Zhu Zhuqing's ear and whispered a few words.
After hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's anger gradually dissipated, replaced by a strange expression.
The two exchanged a glance and, without prior arrangement, turned their gaze to Ning Rongrong, who was still shouting to herself.
That look sent a chill down Ning Rongrong's spine for no apparent reason.
"What...what do you want to do?"
The eye of ice and fire.
Half of it is as hot as magma, and half of it is as cold as ice.
Two distinct yet perfectly blended energies circulate endlessly within the small spring, emitting a misty haze that makes everything here seem like a dream.
Ah Yin was quietly soaking in the spring water.
With her eyes closed, she felt the extreme stimulation of ice and fire, cleansing her body and soul again and again.
A vast and pure energy was flowing into her body through every pore, slowly and steadily restoring her depleted essence.
My body is getting stronger, and my strength is returning.
But her heart was filled with trepidation and unease.
Forestry... How would he view himself?
Now, he is the supreme emperor of the Blue Silver Clan, surrounded by so many outstanding girls.
There's the lively and adorable Xiao Wu, the aloof and resilient Zhu Zhuqing, the mature and charming Liu Erlong, and the obedient and well-behaved Dugu Yan...
Each of them was so young and beautiful, and so considerate and dependent on forestry.
And what about myself?
She once gave up her identity as a soul beast for a human man, and even had a child with him.
Although now I realize that the relationship was full of deception and exploitation, and that man was a complete bastard.
But all of this is, after all, a fact that happened.
Forestry...would he mind?
Will he still look at me with that pure and gentle gaze as before?
Will he still...accept himself?
