After Minglu finished speaking, she turned and left in a lazy and leisurely manner.
Her nonchalant demeanor showed no awareness that she had just hit her ex-boyfriend; it was as if she were just going downstairs to throw out the trash or taking a leisurely stroll downstairs.
Jing Yan gritted his teeth and stood up, his whole body flushed with shame.
He stared fiercely at Mingluo's back, feeling that she was terribly unfamiliar.
Several times, when his eyes met hers, he felt as if the person in front of him had a different soul; it was still the same person, but it wasn't the same person anymore.
The phone rang, and he answered it. Ming Jiaojiao's soft and delicate voice came through.
"Jingyan, how is it? Did Mingluo mention apologizing?"
"..." Jing Yan's eyes were filled with malice as he said coldly, "She won't apologize."
"Then... what should I do? Should I just let her bully people like that?"
On the phone, Ming Jiaojiao cried, feeling wronged.
Jing Yan's heart softened instantly. He was silent for a moment, then said, "No, she will pay the price."
"Jingyan, you won't do anything bad to Mingluo, will you?" Ming Jiaojiao asked softly. "Please don't do that. I want your hands to always be clean and not get dirty. If there's anything dirty to do, let me do it. I'm not afraid of anything for you."
Jing Yan smiled, feeling incredibly comforted. This was the kind of love he wanted, and he would be willing to go through fire and water for Ming Jiaojiao.
He said gently in a low voice, "Silly girl, don't overthink things. Go to sleep early, everything will be alright tomorrow."
He coaxed Ming Jiaojiao for a while until she hung up the phone. The smile on his face suddenly vanished, replaced by a cold and sinister expression.
Mingluo, he will never let her go!
...
After returning to her dormitory and washing up, Mingluo took out the jade fragments, broken pottery figurines, and broken bronze pieces she had collected from the market that day and examined them from all angles.
These items all fell from objects containing supreme spiritual power. Even today, they still contain powerful spiritual energy and exude an ancient aura. They can be used as magical artifacts to fill in magic arrays, or they can be used to absorb spiritual power from her.
She gripped a jade piece tightly with her fingers, channeling her inner energy to slowly absorb spiritual power.
She had thought that doing this would be a little difficult in this world where spiritual energy was scarce, since the power that could be mobilized was limited, and the amount that could be absorbed was also limited.
Unexpectedly, the jade piece seemed to have triggered the peach blossom mark on the collarbone. The peach blossom mark seemed to be activated at that moment. It suddenly moved and swept towards the spiritual energy remaining in the jade piece like a giant sea swallowing a whale, almost swallowing the spiritual energy in an instant.
Then, it quietly and obediently retracted into Mingluo's collarbone, leaving only a little bit of spiritual energy for Mingluo to use.
"..."
Mingluo's eyes darkened slightly; it turned out that Peach Blossom Seal was a bandit.
She couldn't help but wonder if the remaining spiritual power in her soul had been swallowed up by the Peach Blossom Seal while she was unconscious.
If that's really the case, this thing is incredibly unethical and bullies people.
Minglu discovered that the Peach Blossom Seal would devour her spiritual power. In this way, the things she painstakingly bought with money were actually working for the Peach Blossom Seal.
She would never do such a losing business, so she abandoned the idea of absorbing spiritual energy from those objects and planned to use them to set up an array at Nie Heng's house. That place might be her main battlefield against the Xuanmen in the future, so it was only right to set it up well.
Minglu threw the jade powder in her hand into the trash can.
The dormitory door rang, and my three roommates returned.
As soon as Qi Ning saw Ming Luo, she shrieked angrily, "It's all your fault! You said I look like a fox. Everyone's saying I look like a fox today. Did you spread rumors about me?"
