Chapter 764: The Bridesmaid Group

The perfect first night was spent in Qin Jian's tenderness and Ning Rongrong's gentle compliance.

The beautiful time was not short, for they still had two full days.

Ning Rongrong was deeply infatuated, cherishing every moment spent alone with him, unwilling to be disturbed by any outside affairs.

Therefore, she chose a closed-off Mimicry Cultivation Ground, choosing such a tent.

The external surveillance had long been turned off; the two did not even need to wear clothes, following their desires and acting as they pleased.

The love belonging to Ning Rongrong was thus fulfilled.

On the fourth day, Qin Jian landed in Tianshui City.

"Huh? Not at Tianshui Academy?"

He sensed Shui Bing'er's location, only to find she was not waiting for him at Tianshui Academy as he had expected.

"This is..."

Qin Jian's figure flickered, appearing before a detached small courtyard.

"You're here?"

The heroic, snow-haired woman waved her hand.

Qin Jian looked closely and couldn't help but smile: "Xue Wu? You are in Tianshui City?"

Xue Wu touched her short hair, wanting to give a hearty laugh, but the expression on her face was somewhat stiff: "Ah, yes, the Dalu war, the end of the Plane; we certainly had to come back to protect our families."

Ten years had passed, and the former Captain was now a peak existence in the world, even daring to stand firm against the gods; even with a personality as carefree as Xue Wu's, she would unconsciously become nervous.

"What? Nervous to see me?" Qin Jian smiled gently.

Seeing that he was no different from how he had been in the past, Xue Wu let out a breath she hadn't realized she was holding.

"Of course I'm nervous, you are now a big shot that even the God Realm fears!"

Xue Wu shrugged and spread her hands: "It's already good that I didn't kneel down in front of you!"

"Thump! Thump!"

Just then, two figures suddenly knelt down: "Pa-pay respects to the Chief Judge!"

"Who are they?"

Qin Jian looked over curiously.

This middle-aged couple dressed in simple clothing should be a husband and wife.

"Uncle Shui, Aunt Shui, didn't I tell you to stay inside and keep Bing'er company? Why did you come out early?" Xue Wu frowned.

"This..."

The two only kept kneeling, stammering and unable to speak, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"You... are Bing'er's parents?"

Qin Jian finally realized, immediately reaching out to lift them up with his soul power.

"Please, rise."

He would not be impolite to the parents of his beloved.

"What kind of wedding does Bing'er want? It seems you have prepared something?" he asked curiously.

Xue Wu first let the couple go inside, then curled her lip and said: "Bing'er and Yue'er are half-sisters, so that was her biological father, but not her biological mother. Fortunately, Yue'er and she have a good relationship, and the two have no hard feelings, but this father of hers..."

Qin Jian frowned: "I remember that Bing'er suffered from suppressive education when she was young, which is why she became insecure and timid?"

"Right, that's exactly the good work of this father of hers."

Xue Wu curled her lip: "That's why I can't figure out why Bing'er insists on being married off from here."

Qin Jian pondered for a moment: "Perhaps, Bing'er wants to completely sever ties with this home; this is also her own farewell."

"That's possible. She didn't even let the family decorate, just called us over to witness it together," Xue Wu realized.

"You all?"

Qin Jian's eyes flickered: "Everyone from the Tianshui Team is here?"

"The Captain and the Captain's wife are getting married, how could we small team members not attend?"

Xue Wu crossed her arms and chuckled: "If you want to take Bing'er away easily, you have to pass our six trials!"

Qin Jian laughed: "You even set up trials? This wedding pickup is quite down-to-earth, but I don't know if you plan on a martial contest or a literary one?"

"Martial contest? We don't want to die yet!"

Xue Wu rolled her eyes: "First, you have to pass my trial, listen up..."

She paused, her speaking speed suddenly accelerating: "Dear Captain, please name the seven members of our Tianshui Team within 5 seconds."

Qin Jian was slightly stunned, then immediately said rapidly: "Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, Xue Wu, Yu Hairou, Gu Qingbo, Shen Liuyu... uh... Qiu Ruoshui!"

"Huh? You actually remember so clearly?"

Xue Wu smiled very happily: "I thought your eyes only ever had Bing'er."

"You are my partners, how could I forget?" Qin Jian smiled.

"Then let's go, the second trial... hehehe..."

Xue Wu giggled and led Qin Jian inside, where he was met with Qiu Ruoshui's cold face.

"Dear Captain, so you just couldn't remember my name?"

Qin Jian's face twitched: "Didn't I say it out?"

"But you paused for a second!"

Qiu Ruoshui hummed: "I originally wanted to go easy on you like Xue Wu, but now, humph humph humph..."

Clatter!

She suddenly set out seven cups: "These are our morning rinsing cups, may I ask dear Captain, which one does Bing'er use?"

Xue Wu was dumbfounded: "Ruoshui, you're being too ruthless, aren't you?!"

"Hmph, originally I only intended to let him identify which one was Bing'er's old water cup, but now, hehehe..."

Qiu Ruoshui laughed very happily: "Who told him to offend me!"

"This one is Bing'er's."

Who would have thought that the next moment, Qin Jian would pick out the water cup.

Qiu Ruoshui's smile stiffened: "Are you sure?"

Qin Jian smiled: "Of course."

"This is impossible! Why could you find the real one so quickly?!" Qiu Ruoshui could not accept it.

Xue Wu, on the other hand, covered her head with a speechless expression: "Ruoshui, you fool, you really aren't suited for this kind of thing."

"Is, is there a problem?" Qiu Ruoshui asked.

Xue Wu sighed helplessly: "You already said what you originally intended to test, so the one Bing'er used this morning inside here must be that old cup, what a simple matter!"

Qiu Ruoshui instantly... wilted.

"Let's go, next."

Qin Jian walked forward on his own.

Very quickly, Yu Hairou and Shen Liuyu blocked his path.

"Long time no see." Qin Jian waved his hand.

Yu Hairou and Shen Liuyu exchanged a glance, then looked at Qin Jian and said in unison: "Passing our test is very simple, just obediently let us beat you up! No resisting allowed!"

"You want to beat me up?"

Qin Jian was baffled: "We haven't seen each other for so many years, where did this resentment to beat me up come from?"

"Rare opportunity, we want revenge!"

Yu Hairou put her hands on her hips and said: "The fear of being dominated by you during training back then, we must pay it back this time!"

"Then come on."

Qin Jian stood in the center indifferently.

"Why do I feel like they are even dumber than me?"

Qiu Ruoshui said to Xue Wu with black lines on her forehead: "Just based on their current Soul Emperor strength, can they even land a hit?"

"Bang!"

But just at this moment, Qin Jian was suddenly kicked back a few steps by Shen Liuyu, and the follow-up attack from Yu Hairou forced him to raise his hands to parry.

"This is impossible!"

Qiu Ruoshui covered her mouth: "He is even stronger than a god, how could he be pushed back by the attacks of Soul Emperors?"

Xue Wu sighed: "You big idiot... you can't even tell they are deliberately putting on a show with Qin Jian..."
