Chapter 171 I Found Her
By the time the dishes were served, the sky outside the window was gradually getting darker.
The sunset is like fire, the stars are getting brighter, and all kinds of lights on the entertainment street are also lit up.
Even though it was already night, this street seemed to never rest and was even more lively than during the day.
After eating and drinking, Dong Ling suddenly spoke while sitting at the dinner table.
"My dear friend, do you really have someone you like?"
As soon as these words came out, Qin Huaizhou and Ling Chuge subconsciously pricked up their ears.
"Me?" Jiang Ning pointed at herself in confusion, and then remembered what Ling Chuge told her before going out in the morning.
Princess Dongling wants her to be her consort.
"Ahem, I do have someone I like." Jiang Ning said, constantly searching in his mind for whom to talk to.
"What's her name? What kind of person is she? She can actually make her benefactor like her." Dong Ling asked with a pout.
"I can't say the name right now." Jiang Ning quickly determined the suitable candidate in his mind.
"She is a very kind and strong person." Jiang Ning said.
[You want to say Zuo Yilan? 】
"The only one who knows my identity is Senior Sister Zuo. If I don't tell her, who else can I tell?" '
As soon as Jiang Ning's words came out, the expressions of Qin Huaizhou and Ling Chuge became serious.
Ling Chuge kept searching in his mind for people Jiang Ning knew, trying to find out who Jiang Ning was talking about.
Qin Huaizhou's face was solemn. The person he finally found had been abducted by bad guys a long time ago?
Only Dong Ling was still looking at Jiang Ning seriously.
"Then how did you know each other?"
"We... can be said to have never known each other without fighting, or it can be said that I saved her once." Jiang Ning recalled the first meeting between his two identities and Zuo Yilan.
Speaking of knowing each other without fighting, the first thing Ling Chuge thought of was Zuo Yilan, but when had Jiang Ning saved Zuo Yilan?Only now did Ling Chuge realize that as a senior brother, he knew so little about Jiang Ning.
He didn't even know when Zuo Yilan and Jiang Ning turned their hostility into friendship.
"Ah?" Jiang Ning's description made Dong Ling confused. "Let me explain, my benefactor, you had a fight with her first, severely injured her, and then saved her, right?"
"How is this possible?" Jiang Ning laughed.
"Ah?" Dong Ling was still confused.
"It's getting late, let's go back today." Jiang Ning stood up and said.
"Are you going back so early? My benefactor, will you come out to play together tomorrow?" Dong Ling asked with anticipation in her eyes.
Jiang Ning nodded under Dong Ling's gaze.
Huo Yuan's plan was disrupted by her, and he would definitely think of other ways later.
Today, they had people squeeze out Huo Yuan's number one position. There is no guarantee that Huo Yuan will not attack the number one position tomorrow, so Jiang Ning has to keep an eye on Huo Yuan and make trouble at the critical moment to disrupt Huo Yuan's plan.
Farewell to the princess, Jiang Ning, Ling Chuge, and Qin Huaizhou returned to the National Master's Star Observation Deck.
Along the way, Jiang Ning rarely found silence, and the two of them didn't even speak or quarrel.
Back at his residence, Ling Chuge went back to his room to rest, while Jiang Ning went directly to the hot spring to practice.
Over at Baicao Garden, Qin Huaizhou received a letter.
Qin Xiao sent someone to deliver it in the evening. The ink on the letter has not even dried.
The letter read: News came from the underground field that someone had seen Jiang Ning holding a powerful green sword at the Chuwu Academy, fighting against a mentor with the strength of the Spirit Cave Realm, and escaping unharmed.
The person who revealed the news to the audience was Huo Yuan, who was angered by Jiang Ning in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, after Huo Yuan left the Colosseum, he went to the inn where the man in the hat lived and told him about Jiang Ning's trouble. The man in the hat told Huo Yuan some news.
Underground, he was looking for a woman named Jiang Ning who was holding a green sword.
The two of them didn't know why they were looking for Jiang Ning, but in this case, they subconsciously thought it was a wanted order.
So they revealed the news to the underworld. Even though they knew Jiang Ning was a man, this did not affect their borrowing a knife to kill someone.
When revealing the news, Huo Yuan also specifically mentioned that Jiang Ning was probably disguised as a man in order to make the audience believe that Jiang Ning was the person they were looking for.
Little did he know that the lie Huo Yuan made up in order to let him go and eliminate Jiang Ning for him happened to be the truth.
And he didn't expect that the reason why he was looking for Jiang Ning underground was not for wanted pursuit, but for protection.
After Qin Huaizhou read the letter, he made a spiritual fire and burned the letter completely.
A faint smile appeared between his eyebrows.
"Father, mother, I finally found my sister."
Silent all night.
Early the next morning, Jiang Ning and Ling Chuge went out and happened to meet Qin Huaizhou.
"Why are you following me?" Ling Chuge said in a bad tone.
"Your Highness also wants to go with you. The Imperial Master specifically told me to keep an eye on His Highness." Qin Huaizhou explained.
"Ha." Ling Chuge rolled his eyes and said he didn't believe a word of Qin Huaizhou's lies.
He's not blind. Qin Huaizhou is obviously here for Jiang Ning. With so many excuses, do you really think he can't tell?
The three of them took the teleportation formation and arrived at the foot of the Meteor Mountain, just as Dong Ling arrived.
"You guys go back. As Young Master Qin sent by the imperial master is here, nothing will happen to me." Dong Ling said to the palace maid who sent her here.
"Yes." The palace maid bowed and left.
"My dear friend, let's go. Today, the person who ranks first in the Colosseum will start picking treasures." Dong Ling approached Jiang Ning and said.
"Well, let's go." Jiang Ning nodded, and the four of them rode to the Colosseum.
When we arrived at the Colosseum, there were crowds of people outside.
In order to attract the attention of passers-by, the Colosseum specially moved all the treasures from the treasure house and piled them on various stages.
Standing below and looking at it at a glance, you will see a dazzling array of treasures.
Among the onlookers, Jiang Ning saw Huo Yuan. The two looked at each other, and Huo Yuan smiled contemptuously at her.
With this expression, Huo Yuan indeed had a backup plan.
Jiang Ning thought.
The person who can enter the treasure house to choose the treasure today is yesterday's No. 2, with a total score five points higher than Huo Yuan.
It can be seen that after they left yesterday, the opponent stayed in the Colosseum for a long time, which made the score a full five points higher than Huo Yuan.
"The number one on the winning list is invited to come on stage to make a selection." the steward of the Colosseum announced.
No.1 walked onto the stage. Seeing this, the onlookers started discussing to see what treasure he would take.
Some people guessed it was a spiritual weapon containing powerful power, some people guessed it was an ever-changing array, some people guessed it was a delicate and complicated talisman, and some people guessed it was a panacea that could cure all diseases.
No. 1 on stage quickly found what he was looking for.
Pick up a jade box from the treasure pile.
Everyone in the audience craned their necks, curious as to what he had taken.
Handing the jade box to the underground steward, No.1 said, "I choose this one."
The steward opened the jade box and looked surprised when he saw the contents inside, and asked, "Are you sure you want this?"
No.1 nodded.
Now that the other party was sure, the steward read out the contents of the jade box according to the rules.
"This time I am giving away the nine-leaf Lohe flower."
