Chapter 155: In The Mainland
🕑 Added 2025-03-18 13:26:35 +0000 UTCSouth Garden.
The place is filled with flowers and green plants, with rockery, ponds, and pavilions for rest.
Ning Rongrong was sitting in the pavilion bored at the moment, holding a bowl of granular fish food in one hand, and casually picked up some with the other hand and sprinkled it into the pool below. There were many colorful fish in it, scrambling to grab the scattered fish food.
“Rongrong is here.”
Accompanied by a clear and peaceful voice, Ye Cheng, dressed in white, walked slowly towards them.
“elder brother!”
Hearing this voice, Ning Rongrong immediately put down the bowl in her hand and wanted to pounce on him and act like a spoiled child. But then she seemed to think of something and abruptly stopped the impulse.
“How come you have time to come to my place today?” Ye Cheng walked to the pavilion and sat down. There were exquisite stone tables and stone benches here, on which were placed many delicate cakes and fragrant teas.
“Hehe, brother, have some tea first.” Ning Rongrong put on a flattering look, poured a cup of tea very attentively and handed it to him.
Ye Cheng glanced at her, but did not refuse. He picked up the teacup and drank it all.
“You are a girl who never comes to visit without a reason. If you have something to say, just say it directly.” He put down the teacup, glanced at her and said.
“That’s… that…”
Ning Rongrong seemed a little embarrassed to speak. After hesitating for a while, she finally shook her head and said, “No, nothing. I just haven’t seen you for a long time and I miss you a little bit.”
“Oh, I thought you came to me and asked me to give you some teaching positions.” Ye Cheng seemed a little surprised.
“Brother, you already know everything.” After hearing what he said, Ning Rongrong could no longer pretend and could only nod and say truthfully: “The sect saw that I got along well with you recently, so they asked me to come to you to see if I could help open a back door and arrange for a few people to come in as teachers.”
“Then why did you give up just now?” Ye Cheng looked at her with interest and said, “Maybe if you act coquettishly, I will agree.”
“Brother, do you think I’m some brainless idiot vase?” Hearing what he said, Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, “I always feel like you look down on me.”
Although Ning Rongrong was a little spoiled, she was trained as the heir of the sect since she was a child, so her emotional intelligence is not weak at all. Although Ye Cheng looked like a good brother to her, if she thought that she could do whatever she wanted by relying on his favor, she was totally wrong.
After spending a long time together, Ning Rongrong could see that Ye Cheng was kind to her more out of his personal affection for her, not because of her identity as the eldest daughter of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, or the blood relationship between siblings… So if she tried to bind him with family affection or some other big thing, she would be making a wrong calculation.
Because of this, when Ning Rongrong was forced to come here by the old guys in the sect, she was very reluctant. Because she knew that once she asked Ye Cheng to help open the back door, whether he agreed or refused, the relationship between them would definitely be affected.
So in the end Ning Rongrong gave up asking. In fact, it was a very smart retreat to advance. Because she knew that Ye Cheng must know her purpose, and she did not ask, which showed her attitude.
Ye Cheng could naturally see her little thoughts, but he had to admit that some things would be much more comfortable if they were handled in a different way. At least it would not be so annoying.
In the end, the two acted as if nothing had happened.
After sitting in the garden pavilion and chatting for a while, when the time was almost up, Ning Rongrong got up and said goodbye.
Although Ye Cheng did not explicitly state whether he agreed to give her a backdoor, Ning Rongrong knew the answer from his attitude of not mentioning it. That was impossible!
After getting the answer, Ning Rongrong could return to the sect to report.
Looking at Ning Rongrong’s figure going away, Ye Cheng began to think about business. “Now that the teacher recruitment is complete, it’s time to consider opening the school and officially recruiting students.”
“No! Not yet.”
He suddenly shook his head again. He realized that although these teachers met the recruitment criteria, they had not received systematic training and might not be able to teach students well. In addition, he needed to prepare some special teaching materials to better spread his ideas.
He hopes that Baiyun College is not only an academy that teaches people to become stronger, but also an academy that can teach students the correct outlook on life, life and values.
This society is really too distorted and urgently needs some positive energy to save this sick world.
Therefore, it is necessary to compile some specialized teaching materials. He can appropriately mix some of his own private opinions in them, and then through subtle teaching, let these students establish the correct three views. After graduation, they will not become beasts with empty power. Instead, they will become real strong people!
…
The other side.
Neptune and Xiaobai came to the mainland from the sea, traveling around the mountains and rivers and strolling along the way.
After traveling for a while, even though they were not in a hurry, they gradually arrived at Tiandou City, the imperial capital of the Tiandou Empire.
From afar, one can already see the city walls with fluttering flags. As one of the three largest and most prosperous cities on the continent (the other two cities are Baiyun City and Star Luo Imperial City), Tiandou City’s walls are hundreds of meters high and are made entirely of the hardest granite. The soldiers patrolling and standing guard on the city walls are all fully armored and holding spears. Their bravery can be seen from the murderous aura they exude.
The tall city gate Is ten meters high and ten meters wide, wide enough for six horses to pass side by side. There are two secondary gates next to it, also five meters high and wide. Pedestrians can only enter through the secondary gates, and the main gate in the middle is closed.
Neptune and Xiaobai, who were dressed differently from mainlanders, had just entered the city gate when they attracted the attention of some spies. These people who specialized in recording intelligence had a strong memory for important people and events, and therefore recognized Neptune’s identity at once.
So the two of them reported their intelligence layer by layer, and finally came to the desk of Emperor Xue Ye, looking at the information presented by the people below. He frowned slightly and whispered to himself: “Strange, why did he come to the mainland? Is it for the Vast Sea Universe Cover? But can’t the Sea God summon it back directly? Is this also a test from the Sea God?”
The lack of intelligence made Emperor Xue Ye somewhat unsure of Neptune’s intentions, but he did know one thing: the Tiandou Empire could not afford to offend this person.
After all, this person is the future Sea God, not to mention that judging from the strength shown by Sea God Island, he would not be afraid even if he faced the Spirit Hall. How could the Heaven Dou Empire compare with them?
“Fortunately, I had foresight and gave away that hot treasure early.” Thinking that the Vast Sea Universe Cover had been given away by him, Emperor Xue Ye felt relieved. Anyway, that thing was no longer in his hands. Whatever he wanted.
