"Who are you?" Several female cultivators looked at You You, who had suddenly appeared, guessing her relationship with these men. "What? Do you want to meddle in this business?" Seemingly noticing that she was only at the mid-Nascent Soul stage, their eyes showed a hint of contempt. The rest of them were all at the Nascent Soul stage, so naturally they weren't afraid of her.
Youyou pulled Fengrong behind her before turning to look at the group. Although they didn't make any more moves, their eyes kept glancing at the men behind her, their gazes so blatant that it seemed they were about to pounce on them.
She immediately felt somewhat awkward, and guessed what had happened. She said, "Fellow Daoists, you stopped people in the street and even tried to attack my people. Am I not allowed to intervene in this matter?"
The person opposite her glanced at her, recalling the flames on the man's body just now, guessing that he must have placed some kind of fire-controlling talisman on his body, but didn't think much of it, instead paying more attention to the suddenly appearing Youyou.
"You?!" The leading woman in green among the female cultivators sneered, seemingly not taking her seriously at all. Her gaze was fixed on the man behind her, who was being protected by a group of men but was still trembling. "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. It's his good fortune that I've taken a liking to him. If you know what's good for you, hand over that young master named Chen Wei, or don't blame me for being impolite."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man behind him trembled even more violently and subconsciously retorted, "No... I won't go! I already have a wife."
"So what?" The female cultivator in green said nonchalantly, even confidently, "She's just a servant. I am a member of the Cangde royal family and have the cultivation of a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator. Do you think I could lie to you? Even if your wife were here right now, she would probably obediently send you up."
"No, it can't be." The man's face grew even paler, and he looked at Feng Rong for help, "Brother Feng..."
"You're asking for death!" Feng Rong was even angrier and tried to step forward again, but You You pulled her back.
She then realized what had happened. In short, the group of female cultivators had taken a liking to this man named Chen Wei, so they stopped them. They might have done something else in between, and when their flirting failed, they tried to kidnap him, which angered Feng Rong, who had come out with them.
You You frowned, a surge of anger rising within him. He stepped forward and said, "Fellow Daoist, you seem quite confident. Well then, I'd like to see just how impolite you intend to be."
"What? You really want to stand up for them?" The female cultivator in green looked at You You with some surprise, her brows furrowing as if she had some reservations.
"I don't care who you are, but the men of my Crimson Star Kingdom cannot be bullied by others." It's just a fight, right? It's better for her to take action than for Feng Rong to... maybe?
Moreover, Feng Rong had finally made a few friends, so she had to support him. Besides, these people might not actually do anything.
"You..." The female cultivator in green was furious, but she didn't intend to attack directly. After all, this was Tianming City, and Jingling Academy was not far away. Causing trouble here would leave a bad impression even if Jingling Academy didn't intervene, and the other party, who claimed to be a member of the royal family of a country, would not do such a foolish thing.
As expected, the other party simply flicked his sleeve and gave up his plan to continue trying to snatch the person. He snorted and said, "He's just a little good-looking. I'm doing him a favor by choosing him to serve in the Jingling Academy. Do you really think that he's indispensable? If you're not willing, there are plenty of people who are."
After saying that, she glared at the frightened man and turned to leave!
What?! Entering a mortuary?!
"Wait a minute!" Youyou immediately spoke up, stopping the person who was about to leave.
The female cultivator in green stopped in her tracks, turned around and glared at her, saying, "What else do you want?"
"You just said...entering the Jingling Institute?" Wasn't it her lust that led her to this?
“That’s right!” the female cultivator in green snorted coldly. “After this grand ceremony, the Jingling Academy will definitely select a group of new disciples, and naturally someone will need to serve them. This selection has always been done by my Cangguo Kingdom. If the ceremony hadn’t been held so hastily, how could such a good opportunity have fallen to your Chixing Kingdom?”
She exchanged a glance with Yuan Qi beside her, their eyes both lighting up. "You should have said we could go in earlier! It's like my wish came true!"
“Fellow Daoist, is it really about selecting people to enter the Jingling Academy?” You You immediately gave the other party a smile.
"Of course it's true, it has to be sent up the mountain tomorrow!" The female cultivator in green glanced at her from head to toe, as if she could see through her thoughts, her eyes full of mockery and contempt. "What, are you regretting it and want to hand over that young master?" After all, not just anyone can get involved with the Jingling Academy.
“Of course not.” Youyou shook her head. Just as the other person was about to get angry, she pulled the person next to her out. “But… what do you think about replacing him?” After saying that, she raised her hand and dispelled the magic that concealed Feng Rong’s appearance, revealing his true appearance.
The female cultivator in green was about to refuse when she paused, completely stunned. She stared wide-eyed at Feng Rong's face. Not only were the female cultivators opposite her shocked, but everyone around them gasped in surprise.
As expected, Feng Rong's appearance was incredibly alluring.
"Youyou!" Feng Rong looked at her in disbelief, seemingly not expecting that she would actually betray him like that. Several men who were being protected also looked at Youyou in shock, their eyes filled with anger.
"I need to find a way to get into the Mortuary to investigate," You You immediately explained telepathically. "Don't worry, I'll go with you!"
"..." Feng Rong was stunned for a moment before realizing what was happening. Entering Jingling Academy? Wouldn't that mean he wouldn't have to wait in the city, but could be with Youyou? So he immediately took a step closer to cooperate, and even glanced triumphantly at Yuan Qi next to him.
Yuan Qi ignored him, but instead seemed to have been reminded, and stepped forward with a light laugh, saying, "How about adding me to the group?" As he spoke, he gestured to You You.
Thinking of the complex formations at Jingling Temple, You You also lifted the spell on Yuan Qi's face. Bringing one or two made little difference; she wasn't comfortable leaving Yuan's father alone in the city.
The crowd gasped again. The female cultivator in front looked back and forth between Feng Rong and Yuan Qi, seemingly unable to believe that two stunning beauties had been presented to them so readily. It took her a while to finally manage to utter a sound.
"Good...good..." With such beauty, which female cultivator wouldn't like her?
"Then we'll have to trouble you, Immortal Master." Yuan Qi cupped his hands in reply, and before the others could react, he continued, "However, this matter is too sudden. May we go back and make some preparations, and then accompany you to Jingling Academy a few more times tomorrow?"
"Yes...yes!" The female cultivator in green nodded immediately, as if she couldn't refuse his words at all.
"Thank you, esteemed immortals." Yuan Qi bowed again, then turned to look at You You. He then led the men away, ignoring the astonished gazes of the crowd, and strode off. They needed to return quickly to discuss their infiltration plan for tomorrow.
