Chapter 767: Upon Hearing the News, Leng Shu! Are You Sure You Want to Spar?

"It's Jingming! He's here!"

Leng Yuexi's face lit up with joy as she hurried forward; Leng Yuechan followed right behind.

Crackling—

Golden lightning flickered, and amid the slightly surprised gazes of those around him, Xu Jingming retracted his Thunder Dragon Wings and landed on the ground.

At that moment, Leng Yuexi had just arrived.

Upon seeing Xu Jingming again, both Leng Yuexi and Leng Yuechan's eyes brightened.

The virtual world isn't reality; back then in the virtual world, the two women hadn't noticed anything unusual.

Now, upon meeting again, they immediately sensed a faint sense of pressure emanating from Xu Jingming.

Combined with his tall stature and handsome features,

an indescribable special aura washed over them—like the rising sun, full of hope, intoxicating to behold.

"What, haven't seen me for just over ten days, and you two don't recognize me anymore?"

Xu Jingming waved a finger in front of the two, who were still dazed.

Leng Yuexi finally snapped back to reality, a faint blush rising on her lovely face as she softly said:

"Let's go. Dinner has already been prepared for you."

"Then I'll eat my fill tonight."

Xu Jingming smiled and followed the Leng sisters into the Spirit Fox Guild compound.

"I never expected the eldest miss to be waiting for such a young man."

In the shadows, a man frowned as he withdrew his gaze and dialed Leng Shu's number:

"Young Master, the eldest miss has met a young man at the compound entrance."

"A young man?"

Inside a luxurious villa in the Spirit Fox Guild compound, Leng Shu frowned upon receiving the call.

He was confident, but not blindly arrogant.

He hadn't interacted with Leng Yuexi many times, but from what he knew of her, she was no ordinary woman.

He would not allow any variables in the match half a month from now.

So despite his overwhelming advantage, he still assigned subordinates to monitor Leng Yuexi's movements.

He hadn't expected news to arrive after just one day—that the two had gone to the compound gate, apparently to welcome someone important.

He had assumed it would be an eighth-rank Grand Master from the Spirit Fox Guild, but his subordinate said it was a young man.

"He's pretty good-looking. Could he be the eldest miss's old lover?"

The subordinate chuckled, "If he's just the eldest miss's man, I think you have nothing to worry about, Young Master."

"Old lover?"

Leng Shu's brow furrowed deeper.

Most psychics, once they gain some power, sink into indulgence.

Even he was no exception—though he wasn't as reckless.

But Leng Yuexi was different; according to the information he'd gathered,

she had always devoted herself to cultivation and had never been linked to any man in scandal.

As for Leng Yuechan, though more lively in temperament, she was the same.

He'd never heard either of them had an old lover.

"Something's off. Did you take a photo? Send it to me." Leng Shu murmured.

"Yes, I'll send it right away."

Before long, a photo appeared on Leng Shu's phone.

Seeing the figure in the image, his relaxed expression instantly turned to shock.

Damn it!

Isn't that Xu Jingming?

"It's Xu Jingming from Thunderbolt Dojo!"

Leng Shu shot up from the sofa, his expression filled with disbelief.

Like Leng Yuexi, he was a mixed-race individual, though his mother was from Bear Nation.

He had lived in Great Xia for only three or four years, then spent the rest of his life in Bear Nation.

Even so, he had heard of Xu Jingming—the man who had surged from sixth to seventh rank in just a few months, shocking all of Great Xia.

He never expected Leng Yuexi had summoned him here!

"Young Master, what's wrong?" came the subordinate's confused voice over the phone.

"You're asking me? That's Xu Jingming from Great Xia! Don't you recognize him?"

Leng Shu nearly laughed in anger.

If he hadn't been cautious and asked a few extra questions, he might have missed this crucial piece of information!

"Huh? He's Xu Jingming?"

The subordinate's surprised voice came over the phone—he clearly knew who Xu Jingming was—and quickly apologized:

"Sorry, Young Master, I didn't pay special attention, so I didn't recognize him."

He was a Heizhou native; though he'd heard Xu Jingming's name, he couldn't match it to the face.

"Forget it. Go back to Leng Yuexi's villa. As soon as Xu Jingming leaves, notify me immediately."

Leng Shu took a deep breath, gave the order, and hung up.

"My dear sister… I never thought you could get Xu Jingming to come…"

Leng Shu's eyes gleamed.

Had he not known about this, he might have remained unprepared.

But now that he knew, he wouldn't let Xu Jingming stay with Leng Yuexi.

"First, try to win him over. If that fails, think of another plan."

Leng Shu muttered under his breath.

The position of Spirit Fox Guild leader would not tolerate any variables.

And this sudden appearance of Xu Jingming was the most unstable factor…

Under the guidance of the Leng sisters, Xu Jingming soon arrived before a villa.

The villa was extremely luxurious, somewhat resembling a Sihe Academy structure.

But far more upscale—its central building was the tallest, standing three stories high.

The buildings on either side were slightly shorter, yet still two stories tall.

The three villas, connected by walls, formed a "mouth" shape.

In the center of the courtyard grew a spirit tree resembling a willow.

Its willow branches swayed in the wind, releasing a faint, refreshing fragrance that invigorated the spirit.

After entering the villa, Xu Jingming enjoyed a lavish dinner.

After the meal, Xu Jingming told Leng Yuexi he intended to head to the Wildlands.

"You're going back to the Wildlands so soon?" Leng Yuexi was surprised.

"Yes, I was worried you might need help with something else,

so I came over to check. Otherwise, I'd have stayed in the Wildlands."

Xu Jingming nodded.

"I see."

Leng Yuexi felt a pang of disappointment but shook her head and replied:

"I don't have any urgent matters—just make sure you show up for the match half a month from now."

She paused, then suddenly remembered something, her eyes twinkling as she smiled:

"I still remember back in Myanmar, you said you could crush me with one hand.

How about we test that now?"

"You're sure you want to spar with me?" Xu Jingming raised an eyebrow.

"What, you really think one hand can crush me?

Don't forget, my ability has fully evolved to S-rank, and I'm higher in rank than you!"

Leng Yuexi puffed out her full, impressive chest, confident.

She couldn't beat Xu Jingming, but she wouldn't be crushed by one hand either.

At least… at least he'd need both hands!

"Since you're so confident, fine—let's head to the training room now."

Xu Jingming grinned.

Free sparring partner? Why not take it?

Good way to warm up before heading to the Wildlands again.
