Chapter 1226 Silent Protection



Tu Ningning pulled Yun Zheng's wrist and said, "Ignore these crazy guys, let's go in."

Yun Zheng nodded.

The two of them entered Yusheng Tower together, leaving Jing Chengan and the other two behind.

Lin Xianmei stared at Tu Ningning's departing back with anger and hatred. If it weren't for her cousin protecting the crazy woman Tu Ningning, she would have killed her long ago.

Lin Xianmei retracted her gaze and gritted her teeth, "Cousin, you've protected her time and again, but she won't appreciate your kindness at all. Aren't you just letting her get away with it?"

Jing Cheng'an avoided talking about it, and then his eyes swept over the injured Lin Ziping.

"Send Zi Ping back to the Lin Mansion first, and we can talk about other things later."

When Lin Xianmei heard this, she felt resentful.

But she didn't dare to disobey Jing Cheng'an's words, not only because he was her cousin, but also because Jing Cheng'an's strength and family background should not be underestimated.

After all, Jing Cheng'an is one of the six geniuses in Huangzhou.

It just so happens that my cousin, such a gifted boy, would actually like an insignificant and down-and-out female cultivator. If it weren't for my aunt's interference, my cousin would still be with that crazy woman Tu Ningning.

"Yes, cousin." Lin Xianmei said reluctantly.

Jing Cheng'an stared deeply into the restaurant. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and left with Lin Xianmei and her brother.

After Tu Ningning pulled Yun Zheng into Yusheng Tower, she specially ordered a big meal, which included sweet and sour pork trotters, braised pork, egg yolk soup, shredded chicken, Qianjin broken fragrant cakes, northern-style steamed dishes and other delicious dishes.

These dishes are full of spiritual energy and taste more refreshing.

In the private room, Tu Ningning kept serving dishes to Yun Zheng and introduced the deliciousness of these dishes to her.

Yun Zheng saw that her empty bowls had been piled up into a small mountain, and she couldn't help laughing as she tried to stop Tu Ningning's enthusiastic behavior.

"Okay, okay, I'll finish these first and then add more dishes."

After hearing this, Tu Ningning gave up.

Yun Zheng looked up at Tu Ningning. In fact, she could feel that Tu Ningning was worried, but she tried to cover it up by looking happy on the outside.

Yun Zheng said softly, "Ningning, if you have anything you want to talk about, you can tell me."

Tu Ningning was stunned for a moment, then smiled. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'm fine now. I was just a little upset by those crazy dogs. Eat quickly, or it won't taste good if it gets cold."

Yun Zheng nodded.

The two began to eat, and to Yun Zheng's surprise, the dishes here were really delicious. They seemed to melt in the mouth, and the aroma was rich but not greasy.

“Isn’t it delicious?”

"tasty."

"Although it's a little expensive, it's really good. It's the kind of delicacy that other restaurants don't have." Tu Ningning smiled happily.

Yun Zheng smiled, "It's worth it."

The two smiled at each other and continued to eat.

About half an hour later, Yun Zheng and Tu Ningning left Yusheng Tower and went to a shop selling spiritual fruits.

Yun Zheng bought a large amount of spiritual fruits, so many that Tu Ningning was shocked. She couldn't help but ask, "Zheng Zheng, why are you buying so many spiritual fruits? You don't need to buy so many for a two-month trip to the Desolate State Divine Sea, right? How can you finish them all by yourself?"

"My contracted beast can be eaten, and I can also use it to brew spiritual wine." Yun Zheng explained.

"I see." Tu Ningning suddenly realized, then smiled and joked, "I didn't expect that Zhengzheng, you can actually brew spirit wine?"

"It's brewed, I'll give you a few jars." Yun Zheng smiled.

As she spoke, Yun Zheng took out a spiritual fruit and handed it to Tu Ningning.

"If you want to eat spiritual fruit in the future, come find me."

"It would be disrespectful to refuse it." Tu Ningning blinked.

After Tu Ningning took the spiritual fruit, she took a bite. It was indeed sweet and juicy, with a soft and cool feeling, which made her feel very satisfied.

Her eyes lit up, "It's delicious!"

When Yun Zheng heard this, a smile appeared on her face. She also took out a light pink spiritual fruit and took a bite.

It is sweet with a hint of sourness, but not astringent at all, and the mouth still has its lingering fruity aroma.

Tu Ningning took another bite and looked around. A hint of unknown meaning flashed in her eyes. It seemed that they were being targeted by many spiritual cultivators.

Also, their ostentatious purchases in various shops would surely attract the covetousness of other spiritual practitioners.

Tu Ningning frowned slightly. Oh no, what if Zheng Zheng was accidentally hurt during the fight?

Tu Ningning lowered her eyes and thought about a plan that would allow Yun Zheng to escape unscathed. She could be injured, but she couldn't let Zheng Zheng get injured.

At this moment, Yun Zheng, while biting the spiritual fruit, calmly glanced at the spiritual cultivators hiding around. She counted in her head and found that there were twenty-seven people in total, including nine spiritual cultivators in the divine realm and eighteen spiritual cultivators in the semi-god realm or below.

Yun Zheng's lips curled up slightly, wondering how many crystal jades these people could give her?

"Zheng Zheng, it seems there is nothing to buy. Why don't we go to the City Lord's Mansion now?" Tu Ningning suddenly said.

"Okay." Yun Zheng nodded in agreement. There was less than half an hour left before they had to gather. They had to get rid of them all within this time, otherwise it would delay their time to gather.

Seeing Yun Zheng looking unaware, Tu Ningning couldn't help but think to herself that it seemed like Zheng Zheng was still naive.

This is troublesome.

After all, among those cultivators hiding in secret, there are a few whose cultivation is higher than hers.

Tu Ningning didn't know Yun Zheng's cultivation level, because Yun Zheng had concealed her true level with an artifact in advance. So she guessed that Yun Zheng's cultivation level was around the first level of the Demigod Realm.

Tu Ningning suddenly warned, "Follow me closely later."

"OK."

The two of them walked together, heading towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Tu Ningning decided to take Yun Zheng to a crowded place so that they would not be easily ambushed.

However, Yun Zheng's idea was completely opposite to Tu Ningning's. She wanted to go around to a remote alley and get rid of these twenty-seven people.

But during this journey, Tu Ningning kept a close eye on Yun Zheng, fearing that Yun Zheng might encounter an accident or get lost.

Yun Zheng also noticed Tu Ningning's behavior. She looked up at Tu Ningning's profile and felt a little touched.

——Tu Ningning was silently protecting her.

Tu Ningning raised her head and said, "The City Lord's Mansion is not far ahead. Once we get there, we can take a break."

Yun Zheng was stunned for a moment. She wanted to pretend to be lost, and then go back to find Tu Ningning after dealing with the twenty-seven people. But now, she didn't want to disappoint Tu Ningning's kindness in wanting to protect her.

Therefore, Yun Zheng wanted to make her cultivation level clear to Tu Ningning so that Tu Ningning would not worry about her safety.

"Ningning, I..."

As soon as Yun Zheng opened her mouth, she keenly noticed two silver needles coming towards her and Tu Ningning. The other party should be a powerful person at the fifth level of the Divine Realm, so even Tu Ningning didn't notice it.
