The moment Gu Nancheng was pushed aside, he subconsciously wanted to push forward, but halfway through, he remembered that he had been monopolizing Fang Ruotang for the past few days.
If he were to continue scrambling and fighting at this point, it would seem rather immature and would likely put Fang Ruotang in a difficult position. So he stopped pushing his way up and instead looked at Fang Ruotang with a happy expression.
Fang Ruotang was completely unaware of the little schemes the others were plotting. Surrounded by them, she smiled as brightly as a flower.
After all, anyone who can remain serious and composed when surrounded by several stunningly beautiful women of vastly different styles deserves her utmost respect.
"Little Six, are you alright? I've been so worried about you these past few days." Cui Shixu said gently, her brows furrowed with just the right amount of concern.
"I'm fine! I've been in touch with you every day! I'm doing great! In fact, we've received quite a few rewards inside."
“Although we’re in contact, it’s inevitable to worry when I can’t see you in person,” Cui Shixu expressed his emotions directly once again.
Fang Ruotang thought for a moment and then hugged Cui Shixu.
"Brother Ziqi, don't worry! I'm fine. This is just an ordinary training dungeon. There's nothing dangerous inside. We might encounter similar things again in the future. We'll get used to it after experiencing it a few more times."
"I can't get used to this." Cui Shixu raised his hand and hugged Fang Ruotang into his arms. He used a little force. Since there was already a height difference, in the eyes of others, it looked as if he wanted to knead Fang Ruotang into his body.
The two had just embraced when Huo Zhige spoke up.
"I can't just hug him, can I? I'm worried about you too."
Fang Ruotang stepped out of Cui Shixu's embrace, and like a child who never grew up, she said with a smile, "Okay! You all line up one by one, and I'll carry you down one by one."
Huo Zhige and the others didn't think anything of it; this wasn't the first time that children had lined up and waited for adults to hand out candy.
Huo Zhige stood in the first position, and the others stood behind him in tacit agreement.
After hugging Cui Shixu, she didn't go up again.
Fang Ruotang hugged Huo Zhige, and just like an adult inspecting a construction project, she asked, "What have you been doing all these days in the secret realm?"
"I've been hunting down monsters in the area, so my cultivation level should have improved a little bit as well."
The difference in cultivation level between Huo Zhige and the others was entirely based on their own intuition, just like Fang Ruotang, except that they were not as powerful as her.
"Not bad! You should cultivate diligently. Nan Cheng is improving very quickly in the secret realm. There will be a newly opened secret realm in three days. We will go in together then, and you can get some experience."
"Okay." Huo Zhige was both amused and exasperated. He wanted to say that he missed her, but Fang Ruotang replied softly that she missed him too.
But the outcome was not good, though the person in my arms was beautiful.
He was patted twice on the back by a small hand, and he sensibly let go of the beauty in his arms, watching her walk to the next person and raise her hand.
"Do you miss me?" Fang Ruotang asked with a smile.
Ye Wuxia immediately hugged her, burying her face in her hair, inhaling its fragrance, and said in a voice full of emotion, "I miss her, I miss her so much!"
"I miss you too!" Fang Ruotang raised her hand and touched the hair on Ye Wuxia's back.
Huo Zhige said jealously, "Xiao Liu, this isn't fair. Why is it that when it comes to him, it's all about expressing longing? Don't you miss me too?"
"I want to too! I want to be with all five of you, but isn't it because you love fighting and killing that I asked you if your cultivation has progressed?"
Huo Zhige: ...
A godlike love for fighting and killing.
You have a huge misunderstanding about me.
Fang Ruotang tilted her head and saw his gritted teeth and red-eyed expression. She immediately changed her mind and said, "Okay, next time we meet, the first thing I'll ask you is if you miss me."
"Pah, pah, pah, stop talking nonsense. I will never leave you. Next time a secret realm appears, I will definitely go in with you."
“That’s right! You’ll be going to the secret realm with me next time.” Fang Ruotang was quite certain about this, although it might be a little different from what Huo Zhige thought.
Unlike this time with Gu Nancheng, which was like a sweet trip with just the two of them, the next time it will be a pleasant trip for seven.
"Will you serve me tonight?" Fang Ruotang released Ye Wuxia and asked frankly.
"Yes!" Ye Wuxia's eyes lit up.
Since he became Fang Ruotang's husband and won the right to serve her in bed for the first night, he no longer competed for anything else.
With too many monks and too little meat, and he already possessing two privileges, any further competition and grabbing would inevitably provoke public anger.
But after Fang Ruotang broke her promise to him once, she really took him to heart and never forgot the things she had promised him.
Whenever he summoned them, they were always the first to come to his room.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Ruotang hugged Gu Yanjin.
"Brother Yan, when you return to Dayong this time, you need to stock up on more supplies. We only have a short time. The secret realm will open in about three days, so we need to get there ahead of time."
"Okay, don't worry. I told my grandfather about this before I left last time. We'll just go get the storage bag when the time comes."
Gu Yanjin couldn't possibly skimp on Fang Ruotang's food and clothing.
And she won't be deprived of the things she likes.
People who are away from home always miss the delicious food from home. This applies not only to Fang Ruotang, but also to all six of them.
"Grandfather is so busy, he wouldn't have forgotten, would he?"
"No, Grandfather doesn't need to cook himself. He just needs to give the order, and the people below will take care of it. Besides, I didn't just give Grandfather a storage bag; I also asked several people to handle this matter."
Besides food and drink, there are also necessities and clothing.
There are many things that Fang Ruotang might not need once he arrives in the Cloud Deep Continent; they might just remain unseen in his storage bag. But he cannot fail to prepare them, and he certainly cannot leave them unavailable when Fang Ruotang needs them.
"Brother Yan, you're so good to me! I don't know what I would do without you!" Fang Ruotang said sweetly with a giggle.
The other five people present were not particularly emotional, mainly because everyone had heard those words before!
In the past, Fang Ruotang would carry people on her back, but now she doesn't care whether there are other people present or not, and just says these things.
If she wasn't being sincere, the person being praised would certainly be happy to hear it, but if she wasn't the one being praised this time, she wouldn't be too disappointed, since there would be another time anyway.
When they reached Rong Xing, Fang Ruotang beamed and hugged him tightly.
In fact, it was the tall and imposing Rong Xing who suddenly pulled her into his arms, as if he wanted to embed her directly into his very bones.
"Okay, you have to try your best and get second place! Then we can sleep in the same room tomorrow night." Fang Ruotang whispered this in Rong Xing's ear.
Who among those present couldn't hear it?
No one was jealous of what Fang Ruotang said to Gu Yanjin earlier, but it was different now. Everyone was staring at Rong Xing with fierce expressions.
