Chapter 634: The Gloomy and Cold Beast King Captures the Charming Alchemist (28)
The freshmen benefited from it and were all convinced by Mingchen Que, saying, "Mingchen Que is too strong."
“I’m looking forward to the college competition.”
"Be careful, that volcano is erupting."
"Let's go that way."
After feeding the spirit beast with elixirs, Lin Muqing was not idle either, as he kept digging spiritual herbs.
During the half month they spent in the secret realm, they completed the task of finding all the spirit beasts, which would have taken them a month to find.
Ming Chenque didn't say anything, but when she was digging spiritual herbs, she would pay attention to the spiritual beasts that appeared around her.
"Why do you always follow me?" Lin Muqing stood up. The boy almost touched her from behind, so she turned around.
At this time, the seven elders were preparing to leave with the group of freshmen.
They were a few steps behind.
The boy was silent for two seconds, "It's not safe here, I'm afraid something might happen to you."
"Ming Chenque, are you so worried about me?" She took a step forward.
Ming Chenque lowered his head and looked into her charming, bright, and unreadable eyes.
Slowly said: "We are friends, you said."
The volcano behind suddenly exploded with a ball of red fire.
"My good friend, there's a volcano erupting over there," Lin Muqing pulled his sleeve and ran quickly, and he followed.
Ming Chenque lowered his head, and the girl's black hair fluttered in the hot wind and caressed his cheek. But after a few seconds, when he reacted, she let go.
After leaving the Holy Gate of Light.
Lin Muching was called away by the five elders who had been waiting outside the Guangsheng Gate.
"You have borrowed my students for so long, it's time to return them."
The two elders said something, and the fifth elder took her away.
After returning, the Seventh Elder favored Ming Chen Que even more and even took out his treasured collection of beast-killing books to share with him. Ming Chen Que also studied very hard and made rapid progress.
…
Lin Muqing just came out and went to another secret place with the fifth elder to collect spiritual herbs and medicines.
So they didn't see each other for another month.
Ming Chen Que sometimes activates the communication device because he misses her so much.
Just two simple and plain words are his motivation.
Ming Chenque left the academy half a month ago and returned home, bringing back a lot of purple gold coins, and even contracted ten high-level spirit beasts for each person.
The people of the Ming family were particularly pleased.
Before he left, his mother pulled him aside and said, "Xiao Chen, you are leaving so soon. You have only been back for two days. I have found another daughter of the Gong family for you. Now that you are capable, they like this marriage even more."
Ming Chenque had never expected such a thing to happen. He frowned and refused outright, "Mom, I don't have any idea about this."
Ming Wei: "You don't know how many people have mocked our Ming family, Miss Gong, openly or secretly since you broke off the engagement..."
Ming Chen Que poured them a cup of tea and said calmly, "Mom and Dad, you know my temper. The reason we were able to get engaged before was because I was still immature. But now I have my own ideas, so you should stop making decisions for me behind my back."
"Have you promised the Gong family anything?"
Mingwei: "Not really. They have been helping us since you left, but we refused."
"Well, Dad, do you have the confidence to sit on the position of the City Lord of Yuesuo City?" Ming Chenque was very ambitious and asked directly.
These words shocked both parents.
Mother Shen: "What do you mean, child?"
The young man was full of vigor and energy, with a light in his eyes, no longer as dull as before, "Revitalize the Ming family."
"Moon City is the first step. Is this money enough for you?"
On Ming Chenque's way back, whenever he encountered robbers, he would empty their houses. Every time he passed through the forest, he would fall into a gold mine or other beastmasters' belongings wherever he stepped. These either contained secret manuals or money. His fortune was extremely good.
Ming's parents were completely dumbfounded when they saw the mountain of purple gold coins in the storage bag. They didn't know what to say.
It all happened so suddenly. A few months later they were told that they had made a gold mine.
After they came back to their senses, they nodded vigorously, "Xiao Chen, Dad was in charge of the Ming family before, but he failed because he didn't have the power to suppress them. Now there is hope that he can revive the Ming family."
Step by step, I stepped back into Cangwu City, a Cangwu City that was a hundred times larger than Yuesuo City.
At this point they no longer thought about any engagement.
Ming Chenque left the Ming family and returned to the academy on a flying eagle.
He would always think of that figure these days, and the various things he saw and heard on the road made the boy clearly realize that he had fallen in love with that girl.
When he saw a couple walking hand in hand on the street, he would think of her; when he saw a beautiful hairpin, he would think of her; when he saw a magical herb, he would think that if she had come across it, she would dig it up carefully, and he would do the same, keeping it in a box, whether he would sell it for money, give it to her, or keep it for himself.
At least at the moment when he dug the spiritual herbs, he felt the emotions he placed on them, and he was reminded of her squatting back in the Fireworks Secret Realm that day, and the scene where he was protecting her from behind out of spite.
All this was just his wishful thinking.
