Chapter 758: Crazy Woman
“So, this is the perfected authority ability, Fox Immortal, after you severed your tail?” Xia Feng narrowed his black eyes.
At this moment, Xia Feng suddenly understood why he could only use Nightmare God System abilities and not Star God System or Dragon God System abilities.
The abilities contained within the Calamity Demon Heart did not exist because of him, but were inherent. However, the abilities of the Star God System and Dragon God System either existed because of Mu Qingtong or because of him.
Seven years ago, Mu Qingtong hadn’t learned so many Spirit Robes, and he hadn’t obtained the Pale White bloodline.
Therefore, when he returned to the historical illusions of seven years ago, Spirit Robes and Spirit artifacts were unusable.
As he contemplated, not far away.
A tall girl was walking briskly on the lawn, her ultra-short skirt fluttering in the wind with her white silk stockings. Her shoulder-length hair had streaks of light pink. Although she didn’t look old, she was dressed coolly and looked vibrant.
“I was wondering why I couldn’t find you. How did you end up here?” the cool girl muttered, arriving by the swing.
The white-skirted girl withdrew her gaze from the distance, turned around, and smiled lightly. “It’s quiet here, and there’s a breeze.”
This familiar scene flashed into Xia Feng’s black eyes on the stone bed, instantly stimulating the buried past in his memory, scene after scene faintly appearing in his mind.
The white-skirted girl was none other than Cha Nai Xue.
The cool girl, Xia Feng frowned, he couldn’t quite remember her clearly, only that this girl seemed to be called ‘Lin Simiao’, and was Cha Nai Xue’s best friend? Moreover, in his memory, Lin Simiao did not leave a good impression on him; she had even caused him nightmares before.
Lin Simiao glanced at the seven or eight bundles of flower gift scattered on the swing and asked curiously, “Did those young masters come to show off again?”
The white-skirted girl gave a soft hum and didn’t say anything more, only closed her eyes, quietly feeling the gentle breeze brushing against her face.
She liked the wind because the movement of particles within the wind often contained vast information.
It felt as if all the information in the world flowed with the air, circled around her with the gentle breeze, and was under her control, making her omniscient.
It was very captivating.
“Nai Xue, haven’t you considered accepting one to try? I heard that the third young master of the Mo family’s power faction is also pursuing you.”
Lin Simiao’s light laughter echoed in her ears. Cha Nai Xue slightly furrowed her brow, opened her eyes, and shook her head softly.
“I’m not interested. My father won’t allow me to be distracted by such trivial matters.”
As she spoke, her gaze shifted towards the distance.
On the opposite swing, there was a black-haired boy, appearing to be around 12 years old. His youthful shota appearance was very cute and lovable.
The white-skirted girl had already noticed that in this park, many little girls’ gazes were attracted to the black-haired shota as they secretly looked at him. After all, the boy’s appearance was indeed outstanding.
However, the boy seemed unaware, looking hesitant, wanting to join the group of boys playing soccer on the lawn, yet seeming a bit afraid.
But this was not the main point of the white-skirted girl’s attention. What she was truly concerned about.
Through the information collected by the Naraka’s Eye just now, she discovered that the black-haired shota’s heart had some problems.
But she couldn’t pinpoint what was wrong, it was very strange.
“Hey, it’s him.” Beside her, the cool girl’s beautiful eyes lit up, and she looked at him in surprise. “This little brother is here too.”
“You know him?” the white-skirted girl asked with doubt.
Seeing that the girl was rarely interested in a member of the opposite sex, Lin Simiao smiled and explained, “This little brother is called Xia Feng. He’s from Willow Manor. It’s said he’s the most pampered adopted son of Willow Manor’s lord, Liu Zhengen.”
The white-skirted girl nodded thoughtfully. She knew Willow Manor.
The hierarchy of power and nobility in the Empire was divided into old nobles and new power factions.
Old nobles referred to the hereditary nobles before the establishment of the Empire. For various reasons, the hereditary system of nobility was not abolished, and all those with titles were collectively called old nobles.
New power factions were the seven major power factions that actually controlled the Empire after its establishment, as well as the various large and small forces attached to them.
Although old nobles had the title of nobility, their strength often did not match their titles. Therefore, compared to the new power factions, their influence and status were increasingly declining.
The lord of Willow Manor was a hereditary baron under the old noble system. Logically, he was quite insignificant in the entire noble class of the Empire.
But there are exceptions to everything.
The lord of Willow Manor had adopted many homeless children over the past thousand years. Many of these children grew up to be little geniuses with extremely high cultivation talent, achieving success and establishing themselves in the military, politics, and business worlds.
Therefore, as the adopted sons and students of the lord of Willow Manor gradually spread throughout the high ranks of the 50 areas, his hidden status also gradually became more respected.
However, it was strange that the lord of Willow Manor seemed uninterested in power struggles and rarely appeared in public.
“Nai Xue, didn’t you say you can divine fortunes?” Lin Simiao blinked her eyes and asked curiously, “Calculate, what’s the probability that this little shota will fall for me?”
“?” The white-skirted girl couldn’t help but be stunned. Obviously, she didn’t expect her best friend to be a “younger boy lover.”
She pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then shook her head. “There’s too little information, I can’t calculate it. Have you had any contact with him?”
“Yes.” Lin Simiao blinked playfully, but said something outrageous. “Just a few days ago, I took advantage of him walking alone at night and forcibly dragged him into the woods. Unfortunately, this little brother seems clumsy, but he’s incredibly strong. He pushed me away and ran away scrambling. I just wanted to talk to him, and he reacted so strongly. He must have thought I was a crazy woman…”
The white-skirted girl: “…”
Although she knew that this dear best friend often did outrageous things, the white-skirted girl still found it somewhat hard to accept this kind of behavior.
What do you mean by “thought you were a crazy woman”? You ARE a crazy woman! The white-skirted girl pursed her lips, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
But seeing Lin Simiao’s matter-of-fact expression, she shook her head and remained silent.
She never interfered too much with others’ actions or thoughts. Only by staying out of it could she see the world around her more clearly and avoid many unnecessary troubles.
She disliked trouble.
“How about it, what’s the probability that he likes me?” Lin Simiao’s beautiful eyes sparkled.
The white-skirted girl also smiled lightly and said unceremoniously, “Zero.”
“…Liar.” The cool girl snorted and jumped off the swing. “Your fortune-telling is all nonsense. Just you wait, in three hours, I’ll be able to win over this little shota.”
Seeing Lin Simiao stride towards the shota in the distance, the white-skirted girl was startled. “What are you doing? Don’t mess around!”
“Eh, right.” Lin Simiao seemed to think of something, suddenly turned her head, blinked, and extended her hand. “Do you have the pills I asked you to buy the day before yesterday? Give them to me.”
“…” The white-skirted girl frowned, and before she could say anything, Lin Simiao had already rummaged through her small bag and taken out a black box. Her beautiful eyes flashed with joy. “Sister Xue is still capable. You can even get your hands on these contraband items.”
“Thanks~” Lin Simiao waved goodbye to her, then put her hands behind her back, swinging her ultra-short skirt, and walked towards the little shota in the distance with a smile.
