Upon hearing this, Dongfang Mian disregarded her image and squeezed her way to the very front edge.
Sure enough, the two people surrounded in the middle were Yan Lin, whom Dongfang Mian hadn't seen since entering, and Shangguan Qingluo, who surprised Dongfang Mian. What surprised Dongfang Mian even more was that she had already reached the cultivation level of a Spirit Emperor, which must have been due to some kind of fortuitous encounter.
"Hand over the items," Yan Lin said coldly.
"Want this? Then beg me, beg me, and I'll give you anything," Shangguan Qingluo said with a flirtatious wink, her charming voice making Dongfang Mian feel weak in the knees.
Many people around Dongfang Mian couldn't help but swallow hard, wishing they could kneel down in front of Shangguan Qingluo and beg her on Yan Lin's behalf.
Yan Lin remained unmoved, only looking at Shangguan Qingluo with disgust.
At this moment, Ah Ju seemed to have discovered something, and excitedly dug her claws into Dongfang Mian's flesh. "Ah Mian, Time Grass, that woman is holding Time Grass."
Dongfang Mian instantly ignored the stinging pain in her body and stared intently at the thing in Shangguan Qingluo's hand that looked like a weed.
"Aju, get ready to do it," Dongfang Mian whispered a few words to Aju and Baobao respectively.
The two nodded, and the baby rushed out first, wobbling like a child who couldn't walk steadily, running towards Yan Lin while calling out, "Daddy, hug me."
Shangguan Qingluo was completely bewildered by the baby's sudden appearance, and her nerves relaxed for a moment. In that split second, a blue object slammed into her head, and she fainted without thinking. As she fell to the ground, a cat's shadow darted past and snatched the Time Grass from Shangguan Qingluo's hand.
At this moment, Dongfang Mian slowly made her appearance, walked to Shangguan Qingluo's side, picked up the token, wiped it, and put it away.
Yan Lin's expression changed instantly upon seeing Dongfang Mian. He smiled indulgently, took her hand, and asked, "Does it hurt? Don't throw it so hard next time."
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt," Dongfang Mian said shyly, picking up the baby. Aju climbed onto Yan Lin's shoulder, and the group showed a happy and beautiful family scene.
But such a scene should not have occurred in reality; all the students present looked as if they had been forcibly fed feces.
Where's the promised top-tier combat? This is it? This looks more like a massive robbery...
"Excuse me, if I'm not mistaken, did that cat steal the spirit herb?"
"You saw it right, I saw it too. It's absolutely shameless."
"The world is going to the dogs; how could such a thing happen?"
"Why don't robbers carry people around anymore? Or is it a group crime..."
"Holy crap, that's awesome! This is our Tianwu Dynasty's princess!"
"Let's get out of here quickly. I don't want to give up what I worked so hard for."
Seeing Dongfang Mian and Yan Lin scanning over, everyone felt a sense of crisis. Recalling the tacit cooperation between the group just now, they realized they were repeat offenders and were afraid of becoming the next victim. In an instant, only Dongfang Mian and a few others remained on the bustling ground.
Oh, right, and Shangguan Qingluo, who's collapsed on the ground.
"Let's talk as we walk," Yan Lin took the baby from Dongfang Mian's arms and led her forward.
Ah Ju didn't forget to first draw the three big characters "shameless" on Shangguan Qingluo's face before chasing after her.
On the way, Dongfang Mian recounted their experiences. Just as she was about to ask Yan Lin, several beams of light descended from the sky, enveloping them and instantly teleporting them away.
