Chapter 1209: The Side Story of Fighting to Become a Father
"I will not take the passenger boat; I will leave today."
Done.
Mu Yiqiu was silent for a moment, then raised her eyes and looked out the window past Ning Ruan.
"I'm heading northwest." Before Ning Ruan could speak, she said calmly, "I heard there's an ancient battlefield ruin there, where sword energy hasn't dissipated for centuries. I want to go and see if I can glean anything from it."
Ning Ruan looked at her earnestly: "Then goodbye?"
"Goodbye." She stood up, her red robes fluttering like maple leaves: "Ning Ruan, the path to immortality is vast and arduous, so we shall part ways here."
Little Red brandished the sword beside her and said in her childish voice, "The path to immortality is vast and boundless, farewell!"
"..." Mu Yiqiu's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile at the amusement, but she quickly suppressed it. She walked to the door, paused, and didn't turn back.
"Ning Ruan, tell your stupid sword to stop learning dirty tricks!"
"Also, how about we have a competition? Should I break through to the twelfth realm first, or should you break through to the tenth realm first?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed open the door and went out.
A flood of sunlight streamed through the window at the end of the corridor, making her departing figure appear bright and resolute, like a sword finally drawn from its sheath.
"No matter how you look at it, she has a secret she can't let anyone see."
Ning Ruan rested her chin on her hand, tilted her head to look at Xiao Hong, and asked, "What do you think?"
Xiao Hong swayed her body. "It's because I have a secret I can't let anyone see."
Ning Ruan nodded, "That's right, that's exactly it."
Xiao Hong nodded, "That's right, that's exactly it."
……
Ning Ruan didn't have a moment's rest during those three days.
The main task was to purchase the spiritual fruits that she had her eye on.
A young girl in a green dress, carrying a sheathless red sword, mingled among the crowd.
I could also hear stories about the assassination of the Northern King or the exciting plot of four kings vying for one woman.
No one knew that the instigator of all these events was right beside them.
They even participated in the discussion.
On the day of departure.
Ning Ruan checked out of the room and was personally escorted away by the restaurant owner.
"If you come again next time, please use the same room; we will definitely reserve it for you."
"Thank you then."
Ning Ruan responded politely.
Holding the spirit fruit in his hand, he tossed it between his left and right hands playfully.
As for the sword?
There was no sign of a sword.
However, the moment she stepped out of the restaurant...
Suddenly, countless sheets of paper began to fall from the sky above the bustling street.
This was originally the most bustling place in the Eternal Domain.
Countless cultivators instinctively activated their battle stance.
However, even after realizing that the paper posed no threat, they did not let their guard down.
A monk bent down and picked up the paper from the ground.
I glanced down.
The large characters immediately came into view.
Extra chapter of "The Pregnant Belly Cannot Be Hidden, the Four Kings of the Shadow Clan Compete to Be the Father".
The meaning of the extra chapter is not very clear to everyone.
But the title of this book—
That's crystal clear!
The first reaction of all the cultivators was to quickly bend down and pick up the paper.
They picked it up very quickly.
He picked it up but didn't dare to look at it directly. Instead, he put it back in his storage ring, pretending that he had never picked it up, and hurriedly left.
But the papers were still falling from the sky.
Like rain falling on a sunny day, it comes on strong, swift and fierce.
The shopkeeper picked them up too.
Ning Ruan... naturally bent down to pick it up as well.
She even read the title aloud, "Oh, so it's a side story about a pregnant woman's belly being exposed and the four kings of the Shadow Clan vying to be the father."
"This... does our esteemed guest know the meaning of the extra chapter?" The shopkeeper turned to look at her.
Ning Ruan smiled gently, "I know, it's probably supplementary plot for this book. Hmm, it looks quite exciting. It was written by your father."
"..." The shopkeeper didn't react for a moment.
They even thought the honored guest was cursing.
Then it dawned on me that the person who wrote this book had a name like "Your Dad"... that kind of name that takes advantage of people?
That is to say...
"You said that this side story was also written by...the same person who wrote that book?"
"Yes, isn't it signed?"
"...But can't a signature be forged?"
Ning Ruan nodded, "A signature can indeed be forged, but the content cannot. Can't you tell if it was written by the same person just by looking at the content?"
Yes, I need to write this down.
Next time, try to make it look like a personal signature to avoid situations where even though the author admits to writing the book, she is still questioned.
"..." The shopkeeper was speechless.
Finally, no more papers fell from mid-air.
It was as if everything had stopped.
Only the cultivators below remained, completely absorbed in reading the extra chapters.
Of course, some were clever enough to take the extra chapters and leave.
Some even more astute individuals snapped up several tickets at once; whether they sold them or kept them as collectibles remains unknown.
"No need to see me off, shopkeeper. I'll be going now."
Ning Ruan said.
Having been captivated by the extra chapters, the shopkeeper, who was looking for a quiet place to take a good look, originally had no intention of sending any more.
Upon hearing this, he nodded repeatedly, "Please take care, distinguished guest."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to the paper that Ning Ruan was casually holding in her hand and kindly reminded her, "It's not safe for a distinguished guest to hold this in public."
"Oh." Ning Ruan nodded.
Flames immediately erupted from his hand.
Paper burns instantly when exposed to fire, turning to ashes and dissipating in the wind.
The restaurant owner's lips twitched: "..." That's not what he meant.
Shouldn't a normal person put things away?
There's no need to destroy it outright, is there?
Distinguished guest... is indeed a cautious person, and one who is afraid of the Shadow Clan.
Ning Ruan strode away under the shopkeeper's complicated gaze.
The streets were very crowded.
The falling papers have stopped.
Some people tried to buy it from others.
Throughout the journey, we frequently heard conversations like these.
She blinked, a barely perceptible smile curving her lips.
well.
Though the person is gone, their lingering voice remains.
That's also very good.
Just as she took a step, preparing to walk towards the direction where the Eternal Realm portal ship was docked—
"Ok?"
She paused in her steps.
Almost simultaneously, an extremely powerful and terrifying divine sense, like an invisible tide, suddenly swept across the entire street!
His divine sense was not concealed in the slightest.
It's obvious I'm watching you.
It brings an almost tangible sense of cold oppression, instantly silencing the noisy street.
All the cultivators froze under the pressure of this divine sense, not daring to even breathe, their faces showing varying degrees of horror.
He is a powerful member of the Shadow Clan!
The Shadow Clan did indeed notice the commotion.
Just as everyone was on edge, a cold and authoritative voice, accompanied by a terrifying pressure of divine sense, clearly echoed in the ears of every cultivator:
"Everyone, stay where you are and hand over all the filthy papers you just picked up. Do not keep a single page!!"
