In another student dormitory, the busty cat, Zhu Zhuyun, returned to her room. After sending a carrier pigeon message to her sister, she took out the weakened Eight Immortals Pill and examined it carefully. Inhaling its alluring fragrance, she swallowed the pill. After slowly chewing for a while, she swallowed it and then sat cross-legged, beginning to absorb the effects of the weakened Eight Immortals Pill.
In just a few minutes, Zhu Zhuyun discovered that she had broken through two minor realms. This wasn't all; most importantly, she found that her cultivation aptitude had also improved. Although the increase was very small, it was enough to pleasantly surprise her. After all, improving one's aptitude wasn't that easy, let alone gaining two minor realms without any side effects.
A smile blossomed on Zhu Zhuyun's face. She knew that her Master didn't truly disregard her. If he genuinely didn't care about her, why would he give her such a precious pill? Presumably, even for an existence of her Master's caliber, there weren't many pills that could enhance aptitude and also increase a spirit master's realms by two.
Master... No, I can't call him Master anymore. Now he was referring to himself as Big Brother Ling in front of her, indicating that he formally admitted to having ulterior motives for her and her sister. Coincidentally, she wasn't content with just being Big Brother Ling's disciple; she had long been thinking about how to change this master-disciple relationship. Now that Big Brother Ling had indirectly dissolved their master-disciple relationship, she would have the opportunity to defy her master and scorn her ancestors in the future. Just thinking about it made Zhu Zhuyun very happy...
The next midday, Zhao Ling was embracing Jiang Nannan, who was tired but languid in his arms, and kissed her forehead. Since only Tang Yuehua, Jiang Nannan, Zhang Lexuan, and Meng Hongchen among Zhao Ling's confidantes were not pregnant, and Tang Yuehua, Zhang Lexuan, and Meng Hongchen had been 'dealt with' by Zhao Ling two days prior, only Jiang Nannan remained for him to 'harm' today.
Fortunately, Zhao Ling now had some restraint and wouldn't be overly crazy towards Jiang Nannan. So, looking at the tired yet languid beauty in his arms, Zhao Ling's heart was full of tenderness and affection, and his wandering hand gently caressed her firm, shapely backside.
Jiang Nannan turned her head, somewhat confused, glancing at her jade-like buttocks, and asked languidly, "Husband, Nannan has always wanted to ask you something... You seem to really like Nannan's backside. The first time I met you, you stared at my backside. It made me feel very uneasy, and I even thought you might have some strange intentions towards my backside." Jiang Nannan rested her head on Zhao Ling's chest in a comfortable spot, then continued, "Back then, whenever I saw you, I'd instinctively put my hands behind me to cover my backside, afraid you'd make some strange moves."
"Uh..." Zhao Ling only now remembered the first time he saw Jiang Nannan over a decade ago when he summoned her from ten thousand years in the future. Due to the influence of certain plot points in the original work, he subconsciously looked at Jiang Nannan's fiery backside, even at thirteen or fourteen. Later, he also noticed that every time Jiang Nannan encountered him, she would instinctively put her hands behind her. That scene was exactly like when she encountered Xu Sanshi in the original work.
However, because she was influenced by the Permanent Character Summoning Card and the Lady Killer Charm, her affection for Zhao Ling had always remained stable at over 90. Zhao Ling couldn't understand why she would put her hands behind her when she was in front of him. So Zhao Ling asked the system if it had sent him Jiang Nannan from the period after she had been 'harmed' by Xu Sanshi in the original work. The system vehemently assured him that it would not make such a low-level mistake and that Jiang Nannan was definitely in the state of not having been 'harmed' by Xu Sanshi. It also said that for Jiang Nannan to have this reaction, Zhao Ling should reflect on what he had done wrong.
Zhao Ling naturally didn't trust the mischievous system's character, as it had done many outrageous things. For instance, it had helped Qiu'er transform without his knowledge and even sent her to Heaven Dou Imperial City to find him. And then there were Xiao Wu and Tang San from ten thousand years later; Zhao Ling always suspected the system was involved in that matter, but he couldn't find any evidence.
However, it seemed now that the system indeed hadn't made a mistake in transmitting the Jiang Nannan he wanted from that time period. It appeared that Nannan's reactions were purely due to his own strange gaze making her uncomfortable. Fortunately, the Permanent Character Summoning Card and Female Killer effect provided a large amount of affection as a safety net. Otherwise, Zhao Ling now doubted whether he could even win Jiang Nannan over, which would be a serious problem.
Facing Jiang Nannan's questioning gaze at this moment, Zhao Ling was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a large villa out of the ground with his toes. So Zhao Ling awkwardly chuckled, "Nannan, your figure is so good, isn't it normal for me to like it? Don't worry, your husband has no strange intentions."
After explaining to Jiang Nannan with a flushed face, Zhao Ling quickly settled the beauty in his arms onto the bed and then quickly got up. "Nannan, your husband still has things to do, so I won't stay with you. You rest well... good girl..."
"Mm..." Although Jiang Nannan didn't understand why Zhao Ling looked so embarrassed, she didn't ask further.
After Zhao Ling embarrassedly escaped the room, he summoned his diary panel and complained on it.
[It's truly awkward. Nannan actually asked if I really liked her backside?]
[Hmm... Can I say I do? And not just a little.]
[After all, for readers with a wicked sense of humor, what Xu Sanshi did to this girl in the original work is irresistible, right?]
[Anyway, I don't know about others, but I can't resist it myself.]
[Even when I used a character summoning card to summon Nannan from ten thousand years later to this time period, there was a part of this reason.]
[Hmm, I feel like I'm a bit twisted.]
[On one hand, I like those wicked plot points in the original work, and on the other hand, I don't want Nannan to be harmed by Xu Sanshi, so I transported thirteen-year-old her to ten thousand years ago.]
[Actually, I also have those strange thoughts about Nannan, but I've never dared to express them to her.]
[After all, in the original work, Xu Sanshi was disliked by Nannan for a long time and had to put in a lot of effort to win her heart later.]
[I wouldn't dare to make my wife angry. What if... Hmm, just thinking about it is scary...]
After complaining, Zhao Ling clicked to upload his diary. He then received an A- rating and obtained a medicinal herb called Devilbloom Grass and a map. Zhao Ling felt that this herb looked somewhat familiar. Huh... Is this Devilbloom Grass the last herb needed for the Super Grand Rejuvenation Pill? No way? No way? Am I finally able to refine the Super Grand Rejuvenation Pill to save the Silver Dragon King and win the beauty's heart???
