Chapter 362

Two beautiful women with vastly different temperaments simultaneously threw themselves into the arms of the same young man.

For a moment, those around them could only stare in stunned silence.

When the young man's gaze swept across them, the overwhelming pressure he emitted instantly startled their hearts.

They quickly averted their eyes and hurried away.

This young man was naturally Xu Jingming, come to pick them up.

Only after a long while did the two women, having hugged enough, reluctantly release their arms, their cheeks faintly flushed.

Song Qiuyun couldn't help pouting, "You told us we were going to the Demon Caves, but instead we ended up in Sakura Country."

If we hadn't seen it on the news after leaving the Wilderness Zone today, we still wouldn't have known."

Song Qiuyun was naturally alluring, and with this pout, she looked not the least angry—only more seductive than ever.

Beside her, the white-haired young lady Jiang Chu didn't speak, but her expression clearly showed she fully agreed with Song Qiuyun's words.

"I just didn't want you to worry."

Xu Jingming smiled as he wrapped his arms around their slender waists, "Come on, let's get in the car—I'll tell you everything on the way."

Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chu had gone to the Yangcheng Wilderness Zone, farther from Devil City than the others.

They hadn't driven—they'd taken high-speed trains back and forth.

So Xu Jingming had simply brought Jiang Chu's ice-blue sports car along.

After activating the car's autonomous driving mode, Xu Jingming relaxed in the back seat and recounted the entire sequence of events to the two women.

As before with Vice Principal Ling Shuang, he omitted key details during his narration.

Even so,

Xu Jingming's feat of slaying a sixth-rank adept from the Tianyu Dao Hall within the ruins space drew repeated gasps of awe from the two women.

But when they learned Xu Jingming had advanced to Upper Fourth Rank and had already submitted his early graduation application,

Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chu both fell into sudden, shared silence.

Altogether, only three months had passed since they'd officially become a couple.

For lovers in the throes of passion, that time was short—even negligible.

And most of it, Xu Jingming had spent training and cultivating.

Recently, he'd been gone for two full months.

Yet now that he'd just returned, he was about to leave again.

And this time, he'd graduate from Devil City University outright—never to return.

For these two women, it was undeniably hard to accept.

"Don't worry—I'll definitely come back to see you whenever I get the chance."

Seeing their eyes slightly reddened, on the verge of tears, Xu Jingming quickly comforted them.

The Thunder Martial Arts Academy's Elite Training Camp lies near Cave #4, and Cave #4 is located in Nanning City, Guizhou Province.

It's over two thousand kilometers from Devil City.

Even flying a combat aircraft, a round trip would take at least ten hours.

He couldn't say when he'd return to Devil City next, but he'd try his best to find opportunities.

"It's fine—follow your own plan, Jingming. We'll keep training hard here at Devil City University."

Song Qiuyun replied, taking a deep breath to steady her emotions.

She wasn't a woman who failed to see the bigger picture.

Xu Jingming was going to the Elite Training Camp to undergo advanced training—not on a spring outing.

How could he casually leave whenever he wanted?

"Qiuyun's right—you don't need to worry about us."

"Besides, don't we still have the virtual immersion pods?"

"Through the network, we can still achieve the same realism as face-to-face meetings."

Jiang Chu softly echoed the sentiment.

Seeing this, a warm feeling flowed through Xu Jingming's heart, and he gently pulled them both into his arms.

"By the way, Jingming—where are we headed next?"

"Back to campus. Why?"

"Campus isn't convenient—why not go to my villa in the city?"

"Fine."

"..."

The sports car swiftly turned and headed toward its new destination.

Both Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chu owned multiple properties in Devil City, including several villas.

The three ultimately went to one of Jiang Chu's villas in Jing'an District, slightly quieter in setting.

"Why didn't you go to Yuan Shui Wilderness Zone instead of Yangcheng? And Jiang Chu, aren't you focused on becoming a potion master? Why did you go along?"

After dinner, Xu Jingming sat on the sofa and asked with a smile.

Compared to Yuan Shui Wilderness Zone, Yangcheng was more dangerous.

But one carried an eighth-grade protective talisman, the other a sixth-grade one.

Safety wasn't an issue—only the distance from Devil City was excessive.

"Yangcheng has a rare herb I need to brew my pills, so I asked Qiuyun to come with me."

"Besides, after filming too many videos of me making potions for fans, it's nice to occasionally return to my old style."

Jiang Chu, now dressed in casual wear, leaned back against the sofa, legs casually crossed, revealing her long, elegant form.

Her long white hair spilled smoothly down her back.

"This time, we not only got the rare herb you wanted, Jiang Chu, but I also leveled up!"

Song Qiuyun boasted beside her.

"Oh? That's impressive—you've already reached Upper Second Rank."

Only then did Xu Jingming notice Song Qiuyun's aura had grown significantly stronger than before.

Xu Jingming then realized that, compared to before, Song Qiuyun's aura had grown much stronger.

when Song Qiuyun entered Devil City University, she was barely at Peak First Rank.

To advance a full rank in a year was already exceptional.

"Of course—I may not match your insanity, but I'm still a genius," Song Qiuyun giggled.

"We haven't trained together in a long time—how about a sparring match?"

Xu Jingming, glancing at his phone, suggested with a smile.

It was only eight p. . plenty of time left.

"Sure!" Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chu replied without hesitation, their faces bright with smiles.

"No way—I still can't beat you."

Ten minutes later—

The two women in the training room, utterly exhausted, surrendered.

"Before, fighting them was still a warm-up. Now, it's not even that."

Xu Jingming couldn't help but sigh.

Song Qiuyun's advancement speed was already fast—far beyond most of her peers.

But before someone like me, who's got a cheat, it still isn't enough...

But before someone like me who has been given a cheat, it's still not enough...
