Chapter 250: Did I interrupt you two by sitting here?
Jiang Xun kicked the door open and entered; the bed where Ming Ning had pulled the curtains was still shaking.
Jiang Xun immediately strode over, yanked the curtain aside, and then froze.
He saw only Ming Ning on the bed, kneeling and shaking the headboard while letting out gasps.
"So you finally know to come find me?"
Ming Ning looked at Jiang Xun's aggressive appearance, curled her lips, and smiled.
She looked like a schemer whose plot had succeeded.
"Senior Sister, you... you're naughty." Jiang Xun pursed his lips and let out a long sigh of relief.
He had thought that because he hadn't returned for so long, and since it was Ming Ning's first time back then, she couldn't control herself and had really gone to find a male disciple.
"Who told you not to come find me first when you got back? If you do this again, I really will go find someone else," Ming Ning said, sitting up from the bed.
"I had my reasons for coming to see you last, of course." Jiang Xun sat on the edge of the bed and hugged Ming Ning: "I have so much I want to tell you, Senior Sister."
"If you aren't dead tonight, save it for tomorrow morning!"
Ming Ning flipped over and straddled Jiang Xun as she spoke.
————
Early the next morning, Jiang Xun told Ming Ning the ins and outs of Tianwai Island, added the matter of Ice Soul Valley, and proposed that he wanted to go with her.
Ming Ning seemed not to know what Ice Soul Valley was; seeing her puzzled expression, Jiang Xun explained the five major sects to her.
After hearing this, Ming Ning did not hesitate at all and nodded in agreement.
And so, after the two of them explained the situation to Tu Qing and the others and said their goodbyes, they left Xuwang Mountain.
As for whether Ming Ning knew, with Jun Tianling inside her body, she naturally knew; she was just very puzzled as to how an Ancient Sect like Ice Soul Valley could have set its sights on Jiang Xun.
This was truly too dangerous; she didn't hesitate, of course, also because Jun Tianling was inside her body. If they really encountered danger, she didn't believe Jun Tianling would sit idly by.
She was certain that in the entire Lingerie-Sect, only she could protect Jiang Xun.
As for Jiang Xun taking Ming Ning along, besides wanting to spend more time with her, he also wanted to use the strength of Ice Soul Valley to figure out what exactly that other soul inside Ming Ning was.
In case it was harmful to Ming Ning, he would take the opportunity to get rid of it.
"Senior Sister, it's been a long time since we've been out alone like this together." Jiang Xun looked at Ming Ning and smiled.
"A long time? It's never happened." Ming Ning glanced at Jiang Xun.
In the past, he was afraid even to get close to her, let alone go out alone together.
"Do you want to go shopping or something?" Jiang Xun asked, holding Ming Ning's hand.
"After we leave Ice Soul Valley, I'll accompany you wherever you want to go," Ming Ning said, shaking her head.
"Alright, it's a deal then." Jiang Xun nodded.
A moment later, the two arrived at the Teleportation Array in Tianji City and transferred directly to Tianling City.
Little Yu-yu was still waiting here!
Speaking of which, during this time, just by using the Teleportation Array to pay Spirit Stones for Jiang Yan and the others, Jiang Xun had been refunded quite a lot of Spirit Stones by the system.
Now, the entire System Space was piled with over 500,000 Top-grade Spirit Stones; if nothing went wrong, he wouldn't be able to spend them all in this lifetime.
If he could use this money to build up the Lingerie-Sect, that would naturally be a good thing for the Lingerie-Sect.
But Top-grade Spirit Stones were scarce in number, and the Lingerie-Sect was currently at the center of the storm; if word were to accidentally spread that the Lingerie-Sect had Top-grade Spirit Stones, even if it were only a dozen or so, it would attract the jealousy of others.
Tianwai Island had promised not to take action against the Lingerie-Sect, but other dynasties and such hadn't promised anything, and what they wanted most were Top-grade Spirit Stones.
As for High-grade Spirit Stones, Jiang Xun didn't have many on him either, since there were truly too few places to spend Middle-grade or Low-grade Spirit Stones.
"Why are we in Tianling City?"
After arriving in Tianling City, Ming Ning looked at Jiang Xun and asked.
"I still have one thing to take care of; we're going to Wangyue Pavilion."
Jiang Xun said, holding Ming Ning's hand.
"Wangyue Pavilion? What kind of place is that?"
Ming Ning asked, puzzled.
"It's a place that collects intelligence; they can know a little bit about almost anything. But from today on, Wangyue Pavilion is mine."
Jiang Xun smiled.
"Yours?"
Ming Ning frowned.
"The owner of Wangyue Pavilion, Zhongli Lingyu, made a bet with me that I would die at the hands of Jiabu Li. I didn't die, so I won the bet. Now she has to listen to me, and naturally, Wangyue Pavilion belongs to our Lingerie-Sect too."
Jiang Xun nodded.
"Tsk." Ming Ning clicked her tongue after hearing this: "I suppose the manager of Wangyue Pavilion must be a great beauty?"
"Aha, hahaha, she's alright, she's alright, not as pretty as you, Senior Sister," Jiang Xun said hurriedly.
"Hmph." Ming Ning gave a cold snort and stopped talking.
Before long, the two arrived at the entrance of Wangyue Pavilion. Zhongli Lingyu was unusually sitting at the counter, eyes closed, fanning herself with a Folding Fan.
She looked up after sensing someone enter, and Jiang Xun waved at her.
Zhongli Lingyu rolled her eyes, stood up, and walked upstairs.
Jiang Xun understood and followed; it seemed this young lady was waiting specifically for him.
"Yo, Junior Brother's taste is as good as ever. She really is a great beauty, even prettier than Master. I imagine she's very much to Junior Brother's liking, right?"
Ming Ning said sourly beside Jiang Xun.
"Senior Sister, she and I are perfectly innocent. I really just wanted Wangyue Pavilion."
Jiang Xun looked at the sour Ming Ning and had no choice but to lie.
"I'd be a ghost if I believed you." Ming Ning glared fiercely at Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun felt helpless; the three of them quickly arrived at a private room on the fifth floor of Wangyue Pavilion, and after Zhongli Lingyu sat down, she placed the Panlong Golden Feather Fan on the table: "A bet is a bet, I am returning the folding fan to you."
"The news travels fast, you already know I defeated Jiabuli?" Jiang Xun pulled out a chair for Ming Ning to let her sit down, then sat between the two of them himself.
"That goes without saying; after you left, I kept people watching, and the news was sent back the moment it happened. Besides, with such a huge commotion in the Gufang Dynasty, who with even a few spies wouldn't know about the affairs of the Gufang Dynasty?"
Zhongli Lingyu said helplessly.
However, they naturally did not know that it was Jiang Xun who had done it.
"Since you are already mine, then my things are naturally yours too. After I return, I will give both the Panlong Golden Feather Fan and Sikong Yuhuan to you; for now, I still have some use for Sikong Yuhuan."
Jiang Xun said as he put away the Panlong Golden Feather Fan.
Upon hearing this, Zhongli Lingyu was very surprised: "This is a Saint Grade item, are you really willing to part with it?"
"What is there to be unwilling about?" Jiang Xun nodded: "From now on, you must not sell information about me and the Lingerie-Sect to others again."
"Understood..." Zhongli Lingyu nodded; now she had to listen to Jiang Xun in everything, after all, she had taken an oath.
"Also this." Jiang Xun then took out a scroll and placed it in front of Zhongli Lingyu: "This person is named Zhang Yuan, originally a disciple of a noble family in Dongming's Tianji City. After the Lingerie-Sect relocated, he reported the Lingerie-Sect to Tianwai Island, and then he disappeared. Help me look for information on him; notify me the moment there is news, or just capture him and lock him up in Wangyue Pavilion first."
Upon hearing this, Zhongli Lingyu opened the scroll to look at it, then nodded: "Alright."
Afterwards, the two fell into silence.
A moment later, Ming Ning said: "Am I disturbing you two by sitting here?"
