Chapter 141: Ling Luochen
"Wulin."
"I'm hungry..."
"Ah—"
Before the Ice Empress could finish her sentence, the two in the room were startled, and an exclamation from Zi Ji echoed through the room.
But compared to the two, the Ice Empress's change was clearly greater.
After seeing the scene before her clearly, the originally dazed Ice Empress widened her eyes instantly, her first reaction being to blink, as if she thought she had seen wrong.
Afterward, her gaze fixed on the disheveled man and woman, and soon a flash of inspiration struck her heart. As she withdrew her gaze, she was even more tongue-tied and unable to speak.
"You..."
"You..."
"You continue..."
The Ice Empress's face turned red instantly, she took a deep breath, and finally managed to squeeze out a smile.
Then she silently closed the door and retreated outside, the whole action done in one go.
"..."
For a moment, the two in the room were left not knowing whether to move or not, looking at each other.
"Wulin—"
"Why didn't you lock the door, letting Bing'er see..."
Zi Ji nestled in Tang Wulin's arms, her flushed face filled with unbearable shame as she hammered his chest and couldn't help but murmur softly.
She had been seen.
It was only the Ice Empress's first day, and she had already seen it. If she stayed for a hundred days, wouldn't that mean...
"It really is a problem, but the key is..."
"The main thing is that we haven't locked the door before."
Tang Wulin was also at a loss, his movements stopping, a look of confusion on his face.
Lock the door?
There were no outsiders in their home, and before, it was just his three wives living there.
Usually, Nannan, as a good student, slept obediently every day, and Xiaotao and Zi Ji took turns...
There was simply no need to lock the door!
"Xue'er has already blocked her perception of the outside in the mental space; I thought that would be foolproof, but now..."
"Well, it's fine on the Snow Empress's side, but an accident happened on the Ice Empress's side."
Tang Wulin shook his head helplessly, sighed secretly, and slowly calmed the emotions in his heart.
No problem~ "Are we still going?"
"No more..."
Lowering his head, looking at Zi Ji's gaze, which was clearly moved but shyly dodging, Tang Wulin felt a spark in his heart.
"Really?"
"Fake..."
Everything.
Was understood without words.
"Hoo, hoo—"
On the other side, the Ice Empress, who had returned to her room, had a flushed face, like a little mouse that had stolen oil, her mood completely unsettled.
At this moment, she didn't even know what she was thinking.
To be honest, as a soul beast, although her cultivation was somewhat higher, her understanding of such matters was very little; today was truly an eye-opener for her.
"Zi Ji was actually with Wulin..."
The Ice Empress stopped mid-sentence, her mind filled with the scene that had appeared earlier, which suddenly seemed to manifest before her eyes, and she couldn't help but murmur.
It was only her first day here, and they were playing so big! "So big."
The next moment, the little Ice Empress made an arc with her hand, deep in thought, and then her face turned red, and she stopped thinking about it.
She couldn't think about it; if she kept thinking like this, she wouldn't be the pure Bing'er anymore! "I can't think about it..."
The Ice Empress took a deep breath, trying to calm her mood, lay on the bed, and tried hard to look forward to falling asleep.
But...
For her, this was destined to be a sleepless night.
Early the next morning.
"Sister Bing'er, good morning."
"Wait, no, what's wrong with your eyes? Didn't you sleep well?"
Jiang Nannan, after washing up, looked at the Ice Empress walking toward her, a look of confusion on her face.
She saw that on the other's cute face, there were two heavy panda eyes; those who didn't know might think she had been punched twice by someone.
Such dark circles, did she not sleep well last night or...
Stayed up all night? "That's right."
"Could it be that Sister Bing'er is not used to the bed?"
Ma Xiaotao yawned, her gaze also falling on her. Sister Bing'er was already very petite, and now with two big panda eyes...
It could only be said that she looked even more like a little cutie.
"Morning."
"Last night, I really didn't sleep very well..."
The Ice Empress barely managed a smile, looking a bit listless. Having thought about Wulin and Zi Ji's affairs all night, how could she possibly sleep?
"It shouldn't be that she's not used to the bed."
"When Bing'er was in the Far North, she always slept lying down; it can't be because she's not used to sleeping in human form..."
At this time, the Snow Empress appeared in everyone's sight with a smile, full of energy, examining the dark circles on the Ice Empress's face, also falling into deep thought.
This panda-eyed limited edition Ice Empress was something she had only seen for the first time in so many years; she was actually quite cute.
"Xue'er, you don't know..."
The Ice Empress felt helpless inside, opened her mouth, looked at her good sister, and stopped mid-sentence.
No, why did Xue'er look like she didn't know anything? With such big movements yesterday, did she not notice?
But she didn't say these words after all.
"Xue'er, why did you come out by yourself?"
"Didn't you rest well?"
The Ice Empress glanced at the person before her and turned to ask.
"It's alright, sleeping in the mental space is no different from not sleeping, and besides, I don't sleep much anyway."
"Staying inside is definitely boring, so I came out."
"But you..."
"You're the one who really didn't sleep well,"
The Snow Empress stepped forward and touched her little head, a helpless smile on her face. If anyone didn't sleep well, this little cutie was the one.
Those dark circles were visible to the naked eye.
"Did Bing'er not sleep well?"
At this moment, as Tang Wulin's voice came, she saw that behind the Snow Empress, the man and woman who had appeared repeatedly in her mind all night had already appeared.
At this moment, she was speechless—Wulin was even asking if she hadn't slept well? With what happened yesterday, how could she sleep well!
She was just hungry in the middle of the night and wanted something to eat, but with the situation yesterday, if she hadn't left quickly, would she have had to eat...
"Bing'er, what's wrong with you?"
"Zi Ji and Wulin are asking you something!"
The Snow Empress waved her hand in front of the Ice Empress, looking at the dazed girl, her face filled with contemplation.
Bing'er was blushing? That made no sense; she was just asking why she hadn't slept well, how could she blush...
Besides, she knew her personality; how could she blush just like that?
"Hm..."
"I just didn't sleep well last night."
The Ice Empress took a deep breath, threw the messy things in her heart out, and looked at the flushed Zi Ji and the calm Tang Wulin, saying seriously.
She hadn't seen any absurd scenes! She only remembered that she was hungry.
"Mm-hmm."
"It must be because you just arrived; you'll be fine after sleeping for a few more days. But... Bing'er must be hungry, right?"
Tang Wulin smiled, his mood not as shameful as Zi Ji's, and spoke slowly.
"I am hungry."
"I want to eat delicious food!"
Hearing this, the Ice Empress had no mind to care about anything else, nodded seriously, and giggled.
As long as there was delicious food...
She could forget everything.
As long as...
"As long as it doesn't happen again."
The Ice Empress muttered to herself, she must knock on the door before entering in the future; she didn't want to see such a scene again.
"Hoo."
"I hope this matter just passes." Noticing the visible joy on the Ice Empress, Zi Ji's slightly red face felt a bit better, and she thought to herself.
But did she blush just now?
Why would she blush? How strange...
A few days later.
After absorbing the soul bone given by the Snow Empress, Tang Wulin broke through to the Soul Emperor realm as planned, obtained the second 690,000-year soul ring brought by the other, and his cultivation reached level 63.
He vaguely remembered that he had only been level 50 before.
And in this process, as Jiang Nannan broke through level 40, Tang Wulin also chose a 100,000-year soul spirit for her from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, which was the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, beneficial to agility-type soul masters.
The process was as simple as before; after all, just calling out to Di Tian, the other would arrive on call, then open a space rift and catch it personally, very simple and fast.
"Nannan, hurry and absorb it."
"With this as a soul spirit, when school starts, you can enter the Inner Court with us just by relying on your soul power."
Ma Xiaotao looked at Jiang Nannan in the morning, unable to wait, as if she were more anxious than the other.
Her good sister was finally going to absorb a soul spirit too!
"That's right."
Beside them, Zi Ji, the Ice Empress, and even the Snow Empress nodded, already unable to wait to see the change in her strength.
Up to now, everyone they knew who possessed a soul spirit had progressed rapidly, like the speed of a rocket.
And now, Nannan was going to be the next one.
"Little Narcissus."
"I'll be in your care from now on."
Jiang Nannan looked at the harmless Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone before her and smiled.
After saying that, she didn't hesitate, immediately signed a contract with it, and began to absorb the soul spirit.
"I wonder how many levels Nannan can jump."
Ma Xiaotao said expectantly.
"Even speaking conservatively."
"It has to be toward the Soul King level."
The Ice Empress said thoughtfully; after Wulin absorbed the Snow Empress, he went from level 50 to Soul Emperor!
100,000-year soul spirit + 100,000-year soul bone + increasing soul master potential; the benefits of obtaining a soul spirit were too great.
"Probably around level 52."
Tang Wulin clearly wasn't very sure, but at least a major realm was guaranteed.
After all, 100,000-year soul ring + 5 levels, 100,000-year soul bone + 5 levels, that was already 10 levels of soul power.
【Congratulations, Host】
【Your bond with Ling Luochen has increased】
"Hm, the bond level has increased..."
"Huh?"
At this moment, Tang Wulin, listening to the sound in his mind, was still thinking it was the Ice Empress or Snow Empress whose bond had increased, but he didn't expect...
When he heard this name, he couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion in his heart.
Ling Luochen, with whom he didn't have much interaction, only having exchanged a few times in the Inner Court, no, maybe a dozen times? No, how could she have a bond with him!
Others, like Nannan, Xiaotao, and even Xiao Ya and Wang Dong'er, he could understand, but Ling Luochen...
He was truly baffled.
"Sister Luochen."
"What kind of plane are you flying..."
Tang Wulin couldn't help but feel a sense of doubt in his heart.
"..."
And in the distant north, south of the Far North.
Arctic City, Ling family.
Ling Luochen was not right now.
Last night, she had a dream, dreaming that she and Wulin were together, which was already outrageous.
And now, an uninvited guest had come to her room, making her frequently at a loss.
"Sister? You are already one of the Shrek Seven Monsters of Shrek Academy, you have talent, you have strength, you have looks... cough, looks."
"Do you really not have a boy you like at school?"
"Do you really not have a boyfriend?"
The young girl looked at her silent sister, a look of contemplation on her face, and couldn't help but ask.
"No."
"But your face is already red."
Ling Luochen: "..."
Her face was indeed red, especially looking at the sister chattering before her, she was speechless for a moment.
Someone save her.
Why was her sister so gossipy!
She was already not in a good state after waking up today, and the other person insisted on asking her about this topic; wasn't this pushing her into a fire pit! "Really no."
"Ling Luoxue, be rational!"
Ling Luochen took a deep breath, her shy eyes staring straight at her sister, trying to make herself less shy.
However, in reality, for some reason, her heart was full of that person's figure, so much so that she couldn't relax her mood at all.
"Really no?"
"Then how could your face be so red, so hot."
Ling Luoxue quietly touched the other's cheek, a look of disbelief on her face, and pursued the question.
She wasn't a three-year-old child.
If her sister's words could fool her, there would be ghosts!
Whose face would be so red for no reason.
"I..."
"I have a fever from the heat."
Ling Luochen turned her head away and said naturally.
"Sister."
"This is the Far North, the Far North!"
"You have to have a limit when making up lies."
Ling Luoxue rolled her eyes and mercilessly exposed the lie.
Ling Luochen: "..."
Oh no, too hasty!
"We are sisters, how can you still hide things from me? Isn't it just dating? What's the big deal..."
"Are you afraid that Mom and Dad will find out? But it's normal to date at your age... or is it because you're embarrassed to say it? That won't do!"
"Tell me the truth quickly."
Ling Luoxue's heart flashed with a thought, looking straight at her sister, expectantly.
She was very curious about her sister who had already become one of the Seven Monsters at Shrek Academy.
What kind of person would her boyfriend be! "It's not that I don't want to tell you, I really don't have a boyfriend."
Ling Luochen looked innocent, although her face was flushed, her tone was exceptionally firm.
She could guarantee this, because she really didn't have a boyfriend.
"Oh..."
Ling Luoxue was thoughtful.
"Mm-hmm!"
Ling Luochen nodded in agreement, feeling relieved in her heart; it seemed this matter could end like this...
"No boyfriend, that means you have someone you like."
"You can't refute me on this one~"
Ling Luoxue had a look of success, a giggle on her face.
She had noticed just now that her sister had a look of relief; exposed, right!
"..."
Ling Luochen was silent; it wasn't that she didn't want to answer, but the key was that she didn't have a boy she liked.
Tang Wulin... that clearly didn't count.
She just accidentally dreamed of him, which was why she was blushing; after all, this was the first time an opposite sex had appeared in her dreams in so many years.
"If sister doesn't have someone she likes, then it's impossible to blush, it can only be said..."
"You were attracted to a boy, but you haven't really confirmed whether you like him?"
Ling Luoxue looked thoughtful, instantly transforming into an emotional master, pointing out the confusion for the other.
"So that's it, it makes sense..."
Ling Luochen was thoughtful and subconsciously responded.
But soon, she felt something was wrong in her heart.
No, why was she nodding! (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 142 =====
