Nine Nether Dragon Emperor-Chapter 79: Just Lusting After His Body, Not His Heart!
"The entire Capital is buzzing about you! We’re just going to spar a little. You don’t mind, right?"
After exchanging a glance, the slightly shorter of the two youths stepped forward, his tone aggressive.
Ning Xuan didn’t respond, as he was simultaneously hearing a voice transmission from Doll.
"Junior Brother, I don’t like the aura on Zhongli Ruoruo!"
Ning Xuan took her words very seriously, unconsciously twitching his nose. After spending a few days with her, he had a general understanding of Senior Sister Doll. She seemed to possess a strange ability to immediately discern whether a person had malicious intent. Her saying she didn’t like Zhongli Ruoruo’s aura didn’t necessarily mean the girl was evil. However, it certainly meant something was off.
Unexpectedly, the youth who had spoken to Ning Xuan saw this small gesture and nearly exploded with rage.
"Kid! I’m talking to you! How dare you ignore me and blatantly disrespect Junior Sister Zhongli? Do you think the Dao Xuan Institute doesn’t exist?!"
The other youth’s eyes glinted as he turned to Si Lanyi. "Junior Sister Si, is this friend of yours always so frivolous around women?"
"Senior Brother Zhang Yun, first, let me correct you. He’s not my friend; he’s my fiancé! Second, Senior Sister Zhongli smells wonderful. What’s wrong with my Brother Xuan taking a couple of sniffs? I even touched her."
Si Lanyi’s words nearly made Zhang Yun choke with anger. This guy acts like a pervert right in front of his fiancée, and when I kindly point it out, I’m the one who ends up being wrong?!
"Yi Yi, Senior Sister Zhongli does smell nice, but I’m still not a fan of her perfume. How about changing to a different scent next time?" Ning Xuan said to Si Lanyi, before generously offering the same suggestion to Zhongli Ruoruo.
The two youths were completely floored.
What the hell! Asking another woman to change her perfume in front of his fiancée... How can such a shameless person exist in this world!
A flicker of light crossed Si Lanyi’s beautiful eyes. She was incredibly clever and immediately understood the hidden meaning in Ning Xuan’s words. A stunning smile blossomed on her face.
This sight made the two youths, who were watching her secretly, question their very existence. Why is Junior Sister Si getting happier when Ning Xuan is acting like such a beast?
Looking over at Zhongli Ruoruo, the two men felt ready to die from despair.
Zhongli Ruoruo was all smiles. "Junior Sister, now I see why you’re always talking about him. He’s so direct and genuine, and most importantly, he’s handsome. If I were half as beautiful as you, I would definitely fight you for him."
Si Lanyi laughed. "He’s not that shallow. If you’re willing, Senior Sister, I’ll happily share him with you."
Zhongli Ruoruo glanced at Ning Xuan. "What good is it if only you’re willing? He has to be willing, too."
The two youths were so depressed they wanted to commit suicide.
Dammit! This is okay with them?!
Ning Xuan’s reply made them want to slap him dead.
He glanced at Zhongli Ruoruo and said in a dead-serious tone, "I’m face-blind, so I can’t really tell who’s beautiful and who isn’t. As long as someone has a good heart, that’s all that matters."
Zhongli Ruoruo glanced back at Si Lanyi, then let out a coy laugh. "Well, how will you know if my heart is good unless you feel it?"
Ning Xuan touched his nose. "We can talk about that another time."
"Enough! Are we invisible to you?! Ning Xuan, I am Cao Bin of the Dao Xuan Institute. I request your guidance!"
"Junior Sister Zhongli, please have some self-respect! Don’t forget that you are a disciple of the Dao Xuan Institute!"
The two youths finally snapped, speaking in unison.
RUMBLE—
The ground roared as a massive earthen hand erupted from the soil, clawing toward Ning Xuan. Cao Bin had made his move.
Before Ning Xuan could even react, a torrential deluge descended, and the formidable hand dissolved into a puddle of mud.
Si Lanyi’s cold voice rang out, "Cao Bin, if you dare to attack him again, don’t blame me for being discourteous!"
Cao Bin ignored her completely, his eyes fixed on Ning Xuan. "What, are you just going to hide behind a woman forever?"
"What was that trick you were doing just now? I’ve never seen that before!" Doll suddenly stepped forward, her long eyelashes fanning over her wide, curious eyes.
Ning Xuan explained, "That was a Dao Xuan Technique. Senior Sister, they are Dao Xuan Masters."
Doll was still confused. "Dao Xuan Masters? What are Dao Xuan Masters?"
Zhang Yun stared at her, unable to stop himself from answering, "Anyone who can use a Dao Xuan Technique is a Dao Xuan Master."
Doll’s lovely eyes lit up.
The next moment, a huge hand erupted from the ground right in front of Cao Bin, seizing him and hoisting him into the air. Immediately after, a torrent of water crashed down, turning the earth hand into muck. Cao Bin fell to the ground, now a man covered in mud.
Everyone present was utterly stunned because this was Doll’s doing!
"Hee hee, Dao Xuan Techniques are so much fun! Yi Yi, does this mean I’m a Dao Xuan Master now?"
Her words jolted them back to their senses. They stared at her as if she were a goddess.
Si Lanyi spoke with difficulty. "You... you really didn’t know what a Dao Xuan Technique was before?"
Doll replied, "I do now."
Ning Xuan, Si Lanyi, Zhongli Ruoruo, Zhang Yun, and Cao Bin were all left speechless. They had all considered themselves geniuses, but compared to Doll, they were all garbage.
Ning Xuan was the first to react, letting out a laugh. "My senior sister is just joking with you all." That was a Dao Xuan Technique! She saw it once and managed to use two different types, and it’s highly likely both were Primordial Dao Xuan Techniques! If a heaven-defying ability like that became known, Senior Sister Doll would become a target for everyone!
"Yi Yi, this place is full of gravestones, and besides my senior sister, there’s only a smelly old man who likes to pick his feet. I won’t keep you any longer. See you tomorrow, alright?"
With that, Ning Xuan took Doll by the hand and led her deeper into the grounds.
Si Lanyi smiled and nodded. "Okay."
Beside her, Zhongli Ruoruo retracted her gaze and teased Si Lanyi, "Junior Sister, you’re so carefree. Aren’t you afraid someone will snatch him away?"
Si Lanyi said something that left the other three gaping in astonishment.
"I’m just lusting after his body, not his heart."
[Inside the Stele Forest.]
Ning Xuan asked curiously, "Senior Sister, how did you do that?"
Doll blinked her eyes. "I just thought about doing it, and I did it. It wasn’t hard."
Ning Xuan asked, "Don’t tell me you can learn how to do anything just by seeing it once?"
As he spoke, he drew his Soft Sword and executed a thrust. It looked ordinary, but the strike could instantly kill an average Human Realm expert. This was because it was sixteen strikes stacked into a single instant.
Doll took the Soft Sword and performed the same move. Effortlessly, she executed sixteen stacked strikes in an instant.
Ning Xuan’s pupils contracted. Such talent was simply terrifying!
"Senior Sister, from now on, don’t show your talent to anyone else."
Leaving her with those words, Ning Xuan went straight to find the old man. The pressure was too immense! He had to get stronger, or he would be crushed into dust!
When Ning Xuan found the old man, the old man shot him a sidelong glance before he could even speak. "Feeling the pressure?"
"Master—" Ning Xuan began.
"Don’t. I’m just an old man who likes to pick his feet; I can’t teach you anything. As for that stele, it fell from the sky. You can go see if you can find any more like it." The old man rejected him without an ounce of mercy.
"Don’t be so petty. If I become powerful, you’ll gain some face too, won’t you?"
"Stop right there. I’d be perfectly happy if you were hunted down and killed in the Pride Hunting Ground tomorrow. Scram, scram, scram! Just looking at you annoys me!"
With that, the old man flicked his sleeve.
Ning Xuan let out a loud shout and lunged at him.
The old man’s eyes flashed.
BANG
