After Wang Ling safely returned to No. 60 High's camp with the fake Wang Zhen, Super Chen heaved a long sigh of relief when he saw Wang Ling reappear. "You're finally back, damn! I heard from Nan Yixiu that you went to Mist Peak alone to fight Gao Tianming? You're that brave? Did you cheat? "
Wang Ling: "…" As an outstanding successor to cultivation socialism, Wang Ling had always been too lazy to use cheats as impractical as this. Since he was a cheat, there was no need for him to use it.
Wang Ling was worried that he wouldn't be able to explain what had happened just now. Odd Zhuo was naturally prepared for this. He had arranged for a member of the special forces, who was on his way to rescue Mist Peak, to deliberately pass above No. 60 High's camp. Sure enough, he was intercepted by the students here.
"Teacher, what on earth happened at Mist Peak?" Nan Yixiu took the initiative to ask; he felt that it definitely wouldn't be easy for Wang Ling to bring Wang Zhen back. Who was Wang Ling? No. 60 High's mascot with the weakest combat strength! To be able to snatch Wang Zhen back from a lunatic like Gao Tianming, he must have negotiated some conditions.
But at the same time, Nan Yixiu felt a little puzzled, because it was obvious that this member of the special forces had been heading in the direction of Mist Peak, which proved that a big battle had probably taken place there.
"A student with the surname Gao caused a huge explosion, and all the students there were eliminated," said the member who had been arranged to pass by.
"All eliminated? Then Wang Ling … "
"Oh, you mean that student with dead fish eyes? He was blown away by the blast of the explosion, and wasn't affected. "After saying that, the member directly left on his flying sword.
Hearing this, Nan Yixiu and the others were suddenly enlightened.
Because of the special terrain of Mist Peak, there was an updraft around it, so when people landed around Mist Peak, it was as if they were equipped with parachutes. It was also because of this that Wang Ling had been able to land safely after being blown away by the blast of air, and had even brought Wang Zhen back with him in the end?
After sorting out the cause and effect of the incident, Nan Yixiu looked at Wang Ling in astonishment.
Everyone said that this was No. 60 High's mascot … Now that Nan Yixiu had come back to his senses, seeing was indeed believing. As expected of Wang Ling.
The legendary mascot could really be this lucky!
"As expected of Classmate Wang Ling!" Nan Yixiu couldn't help giving him a thumbs-up as he marveled at Wang Ling's amazing performance.
On the other side, Lotus Sun had actually been worried about Wang Ling's condition. Now that she saw him return safe and sound with Wang Zhen, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She had been especially nervous when she hadn't seen Wang Ling just now, and was even ready to call for the family's personal guards to go into the mountains and search for him.
This was a privilege that only Lotus Sun had.
Because of Shadow Stream's previous assassination attempt on Lotus Sun, President Qi had in fact approved Huaguo Water Curtain Group's internal personnel to protect Lotus Sun. Now, these people were actually waiting not too far away. They couldn't intervene in the competition, but they could protect Lotus Sun if necessary.
But she actually didn't care too much about her own safety.
As long as Wang Ling was fine, she could accept it.
Lotus Sun hadn't arranged for these bodyguards entirely out of her own consideration; there were so many students at No. 60 High, and as the team leader, she naturally had the responsibility to protect them.
"As long as you're fine."
So, when she saw that everyone was safe and sound, she smiled. Out of the corner of her eye, she looked at Wang Ling's face, which was as tranquil as ever, and felt a trace of peace in her heart.
The night of the second day of the national competition passed peacefully with Wang Ling's return.
All the major peaks on Nine Dragon Mountain knew that No. 60 High had sent a mascot to get rid of Mist Peak's camp, which was led by No. 1 Devil-Subduing High … While everyone was astonished, they took all kinds of precautions against Fire Peak. Many camps had previously planned to besiege Fire Peak, but all of them had been canceled.
The main reason was that they felt that No. 60 High was a little strange.
It seemed that nothing good would ever happen to them.
In the middle of the night, in the girls' tent, Lotus Sun sensed that Liu Qingyi was a little uneasy. In many cases, girls' minds were transparent, and they could understand each other's thoughts. It's my turn to keep watch. " Sitting next to Liu Qingyi with a blanket draped over her, Lotus Sun served her the hot fruit tea that she had prepared earlier. Liu Qingyi stared blankly for a moment, then reached out to take the tea. As she held it in her palm, the fragrant tea leaves gave off steam.
After inhaling the sweet aroma, Liu Qingyi felt a lot calmer.
Sugar could stimulate dopamine, which could help people get rid of anxiety.
The two women sat side by side, hugging their knees as they held the hot tea.
Liu Qingyi drank the fruit tea with a heavy heart.
Then, Lotus Sun asked straightaway, "Are you worried about Classmate Wang Zhen?"
"Of course not! Don't … don't talk nonsense … "
These words were obviously spot on. Liu Qingyi's face instantly turned red, and even the tips of her ears turned red.
"Actually, sometimes, if you really care, you should go and take a look," Lotus Sun reminded her.
"I … I just think there's something wrong with Wang Zhen." Liu Qingyi lowered her head with a depressed expression. "After he came back, he didn't say anything, nor did he bicker with me."
"It's a little strange." Lotus Sun nodded.
Even she could tell that Classmate Wang Zhen's behavior had become a little "wooden," and he was in a daze like a wooden man.
"Could he have been scared silly by Gao Tianming? I heard that the explosion at Mist Peak was pretty violent. If it wasn't for the protective golden talisman, he would have been seriously injured … "Lotus Sun guessed.
Liu Qingyi didn't respond.
She was well aware that the whole story probably wasn't that simple.
Wang Zhen was thick-skinned and coarse; Liu Qingyi could indeed feel his character from living with him in Wei Zhi's house.
Actually, after getting along with him for a while, she didn't think he was as annoying as he seemed.
This person who had come down from the Domain of the Gods with the same goal of "escaping marriage" as her … could even be quite reliable sometimes; at the very least, he made her feel responsible as a man.
Emotions had always been a very complicated matter.
Liu Qingyi felt that this wasn't something a young girl could understand. There was an age gap between her and Lotus Sun, so Liu Qingyi wasn't willing to share her worries with anyone. But Lotus Sun had hit the nail on the head. As a result, Liu Qingyi gradually relaxed her guard.
Maybe she really was too concerned about age?
"What does it feel like to like someone?" Liu Qingyi asked in a low voice.
"When you like someone, you're always concerned about them and worried about them. Even if they're looking at the sky, you're worried that the stars will fall and hit them …" Lotus Sun said to Liu Qingyi as she looked at Wang Ling, who was looking up at the night sky.
