Chapter 162: The Treacherous Heart of Huajing

  "No need to use the Five Breaths, spare them!" Just as the two brothers were about to respond, a familiar voice suddenly rang out. He Lianuo turned his head to look back and saw that Hua Nongying, dressed in a yellow robe, was pushing a small cart, appearing unexpectedly near the wooden hut.

  When she saw He Lianuo, Hua Nongying hesitated and stopped the cart aside. She walked to He Lianuo's side and whispered: "Those two are from a very small town, where the cultivation of soul servants is already at its highest level. As a result, they have always been extremely confident in their own cultivation. I heard that as soon as they arrived at school, they went to challenge a blue-robed sister, but unfortunately, they were dealt with by her in just three punches and two kicks. Afterwards, a group of green-robed freshmen drove them out of their residence. It's also quite pitiful when you think about it. Spare them for my sake, so that everyone can still speak nicely to each other in the future..."

  He Lian'nuo nodded slightly and made a gesture towards Lan You, actually if it weren't for these two brothers being too entangled, he wouldn't have been provoked to anger. Now that Hua Nongying has come out to mediate like this, he even more doesn't have the necessity to fight with the other party to the death.

  Lan You's right hand lightly waved in mid-air, and the blue spider webs attached to the two brothers instantly turned into tiny blue light spots, slowly gathering towards her palm. Before long, the two brothers were freed.

  Perhaps feeling too embarrassed, the two brothers regained their freedom and didn't say a word, turning around to run away quickly. He Lianuo didn't mind much either, as this Sacred Soul Academy was so big that they probably wouldn't meet often in the future. Moreover, he somewhat looked down on the character of these two people.

  "What are you doing here so late, Big Flower?" Seeing the two of them fleeing in disarray, Mo Fei Bai's mood improved greatly as he casually strolled over to Hua Nong Ying's side and naturally climbed onto his shoulder.

  "Big Flower...", Hua Nong Ying heard the words and was stunned for a moment, it took her half a day to realize that Mo Fei Bai was being called. He rubbed his head with a smile, and he didn't object to this not-so-good nickname. Instead, he walked to the pushcart, carefully lifted the soft cloth covering it, and said with a pleased expression: "After you left, I suddenly thought of many things that hadn't been settled, so after sending the orchids to Wu Di, I hurried over. I thought your broken wooden house must be dull, so I specially picked some top-grade flowers from the flowerbed to bring to you!" As the soft cloth was lifted, He Lian Nuo and the others suddenly felt a faint, elegant fragrance in the air. This fragrance was extremely refreshing and refined, making people unable to help but take deep breaths. Mo Fei Bai, who loved flowers, curiously fixed his eyes on the pushcart.

  All that can be seen is a small cart with two pure white narcissus standing upright, the leaves of the narcissus are evenly distributed with some small water droplets, obviously just watered, next to the narcissus is also placed a small watering can and iron shovel, naturally used for watering and loosening the soil.

  "This narcissus is called Moon Shadow, it's my own cultivation, you can't find it on the market, I don't know why, but when I first saw Miss You Rou, I felt that your temperament and this narcissus are a perfect match. Beautiful flowers accompany beautiful people, beautiful people accompany gentlemen. Although this narcissus is one of my favorites, what can I do? Who let Miss You Rou have fate with this narcissus? From now on, I'll trouble you to take care of them for me! Hua Nong Ying's clever tongue was like a magic spell, she didn't even wait for Lan You Rou's response, and casually moved the two pots of narcissus into the wooden house, carefully placing them on the windowsill. It's not bad to say that originally this extremely old and broken small house, with these flowers, suddenly had its style elevated."

  Hua Nongying was busy collecting things around Lanyu Ruo, and naturally didn't have time to pay attention to the other two people. If he turned his head to look, he would find that Helian Nu's face had become extremely ugly, and even Mo Feibai looked a bit unnatural. It wasn't until now that they remembered what Hua Nongying had said before receiving their mission - that she wanted to pursue Lanyu Ruo. At the time, they thought it was just a joke, but now it seemed like the other side was serious.

  "Nothing ventured, nothing gained! A thief or a scoundrel!" Hellenor spat out a few words from between his teeth, his eyes gleaming with malice as he stared at the fawning expression of Huajing. If this guy hadn't saved three people's lives that afternoon, Hellenor would have probably rushed over and chased him away already. What a joke! Although Lanyou had not yet become Young Master Hellenor's girlfriend, shouldn't this... be a done deal?

  "Peony eyes, snake waist, one look and it's a young master!", Mo Fei Bai clenched his fists tightly, and even though Hua Nong Ying was originally to his taste, he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of hostility towards him. Although he didn't regard Lan You Ruo as his future wife like He Lian Nu did, over the past few months, he had developed some good feelings towards her. Most importantly, he was still underage, and in the eyes of children, anyone getting close to their playmates was a kind of invasive behavior. Mo Fei Bai could tolerate He Lian Nu having ulterior motives towards Lan You Ruo, but Hua Nong Ying was an outsider after all - "Fat water doesn't flow into other people's fields", didn't he understand this principle?

  Two boys outside were itching with hatred, while Lan You Ruo inside felt extremely embarrassed. To be honest, Hua Nong Ying was indeed very good at understanding girls' intentions. These two pots of Narcissus pseudonarcissus also deeply gained Lan You Ruo's favor, but his behavior was really a bit too overly enthusiastic, making the originally happy Lan You Ruo gradually feel uncomfortable.

  "Brother Hua, come out for a moment, we have something to discuss with you!" After enduring for a while, the small universe in He Lian's body finally erupted. He suddenly walked to the wooden door and pulled out Hua Nongying. Lan You Ruo also wanted to come out, but was stopped by Mo Fei Bai's hand gesture.

  "Hua Shixiong, could it be that you really... have feelings for Lan You Ruo? She's only 14 years old!", He Lian Nu anxiously asked as soon as she saw Lan You Ruo being blocked inside the house. Mo Fei Bai, who arrived shortly after, also had a serious expression and quietly waited for his answer.

  "Of course it's true, and I also know she's only fourteen years old, but what's the big deal? Aren't there plenty of girls on the Demon Moon Continent who get married and have kids at twelve or thirteen? Besides, you two... aren't you just like me too?" Hua Nongying looked at the two boys in front of her with a puzzled expression, then suddenly realized that these two young whippersnappers were probably also experiencing their first loves!

  "Mind your own business, we'll do what we want, but you'd better give up on Yu Ruo soon!", He Lian Nuo was seen through by Hua Nong Ying, her face suddenly turned red, but Mo Fei Bai's experience was more mature, seeing his companion defeated, he quickly spoke up to cover.

  "Two little kids, what do they know...", Huā Nòng Yǐng shook her head helplessly and walked to the wooden house beside her pushcart. She turned around and whispered: "I won't stop pursuing Yōu Ruò because of you two little brats. Let's... have a fair competition! And I'll remind you of one thing, three days from now is the opening ceremony. Before that, spend these three days wandering around school. If you want to eat, go find the cafeteria. The cafeteria is everywhere, but what food you can get... never mind, you'll know when the time comes. The treatment in this school is directly linked to your performance! And tomorrow, many seniors will come to find you, be prepared!" After finishing her words, Huā Nòng Yǐng waved goodbye to Lán Yōu Ruò inside the house and left with big strides.

  Watching the figure of Huā Nòng Yǐng fade into the distance, Hè Lián Nuò helplessly shook his head. He didn't know why, but despite this guy having ulterior motives towards Yōu Ruò, Hè Lián Nuò still found it difficult to feel annoyed with him. Even though there was a slight sense of rejection, he couldn't help but admit that Huā Nòng Yǐng was indeed an extremely considerate and thoughtful gentleman.

  "Xiao Bai, He Lian, I say... shouldn't we go... eat now?", Lan You couldn't bear to put down the Moon Shadow Water Fairy after fiddling with it for half a day, and suddenly her face turned red as she quickly ran out of the house.

  "Huh?" Helianuo was about to say he wasn't hungry, but a loud growling sound suddenly came from Lanyou's stomach.

  "Hmm... this... okay, let's go eat!", As he gazed at Lan You Ruo's rosy cheeks, He Lian Nuo's eyes were dazed for a moment before he came back to his senses.

  "Why didn't I notice how cute this little girl was before!", Helianthus tied the wooden box with the Heavenly Wolf Blade on his back, silently scolding himself.

  "That's because no one ever competed with you before! Now you should have a sense of crisis, kid!", He Lianuo didn't know that in his mind, the soul body of Gong Sunyan hugged the firefly and teased back a sentence.

  The three of them wandered aimlessly around the area, and as expected, the cafeteria in Shenghun Academy was indeed everywhere. They chose one that looked more luxurious and walked in. At this time, not to mention Lan You, He Lianuo and Mo Feibai's stomachs were also growling with hunger.

  "Ah, so delicious!", As soon as they walked into the cafeteria, a strong aroma wafted into their noses. Helianuo took a deep breath and followed the scent to a very clean and tidy counter, where rows of golden roasted chickens were hanging, next to which were neatly arranged steamed fish, braised pig's feet, large prawns, and suckling pigs...

  "The food at this Holy Soul Academy is a bit too rich, isn't it?!" Even Mò Fēi Bái, who was born into wealth and nobility, couldn't help but feel the same way. He swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on the counter as he shouted loudly: "Shopkeeper, bring me a roasted chicken! And also give me one portion each of braised pork belly and steamed fish!"

  The white-robed master, who had been lowering his head to look at an old book, raised his head upon hearing the sound. Subconsciously, he picked up the roasted chicken and handed it over, but when he saw the clothes of the three people, he withdrew his hand with a gloomy face!

  "This is food that can be enjoyed on top of blue robes, you green robes can eat over there!"
