Wu Ming unconsciously looked at Han Ruoruo beside her, exchanging glances, and almost simultaneously confirming their thoughts from each other's eyes.
This young man was the handso young man she had used to tease Zhang Lexuan several months ago.
But... family matters?
What was going on? Could it be that Sister Lexuan had really made a move on this young man, taken advantage of him, and now he was coming to her door?
Wu Ming's thoughts were exceptionally scattered, but she quickly dismissed this unrealistic idea. Her gaze fell, and Wu Ming tentatively spoke,
"Sister Lexuan?"
"..."
Zhang Lexuan was montarily dazed, then she recovered and looked at Wu Ming, shaking her head slightly, indicating she was fine.
Adjusting her thoughts, Zhang Lexuan looked at the young man in front of her, her eyes showing a hint of seriousness and caution.
Other issues aside, when the young man actively stated his identity and ntioned "family matters," she had already guessed why he had co.
Although she had anticipated it, she hadn't expected it to be in such a setting... Zhang Lexuan looked at Kong Mingan, her tone calm and unwavering: "Are you looking for ?"
"Mm."
Kong Mingan smiled and nodded, not saying much. Instead, amidst the confused or wary gazes of the Shrek people, he took out an ancient, thread-bound book that looked quite old from his storage spirit tool and handed it to Zhang Lexuan,
"Zhang Lexuan... um, older sister?" He addressed her with a hint of a question in his tone.
This made the expressions of everyone present change slightly, finding it a bit strange.
Although the young man in front of them was clearly not old, even younger than the reserve mbers of their team, calling Zhang Lexuan 'older sister' didn't seem to be a problem.
But... how did those two words, "older sister," sound a bit strange?
"I don't wish to explain too much, but I believe after you read this, you will understand my aning."
Kong Mingan's face still held a smile.
The Shrek people imdiately beca more vigilant, their gazes uniformly directed at the book, then at Zhang Lexuan. The Team Leader Teacher was sowhat hesitant, unsure whether to intervene.
Ah... being a Team Leader Teacher really isn't a good thing. Where is Elder Xuan? Co out and interfere! I feel like I can't make decisions about this!
Everyone was silent, only Zhang Lexuan looked at the ancient book, with a slight guess in her heart.
Zhang Lexuan looked at Kong Mingan, but without much hesitation, she reached out and took the book.
Kong Mingan's smile remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "If you want to talk to after reading it, you can always find in the Sun Moon Team's lounge... Of course, I suggest you bring a few more people to avoid any misunderstandings at that ti."
"Alright." Zhang Lexuan responded calmly.
"Alright, everyone, see you on the competition grounds."
Kong Mingan once again showed a proper smile. After speaking, he didn't wait for the Shrek people to react before turning decisively and leading the Sun Moon Team mbers directly away, leaving the Shrek people full of doubt and vigilance.
"What does this guy an? Why do I not quite understand it?"
"Kong Deming's grandson... why would he participate in the competition?"
"Sister Lexuan, this book..."
The Shrek people imdiately gathered, surrounding Zhang Lexuan, discussing animatedly, their gazes occasionally darting towards the mysterious ancient book in Zhang Lexuan's hand.
Zhang Lexuan looked down at the ancient book in her hand, her fingertips tightening slightly, but she did not open it. Instead, she carefully put it into her storage spirit tool.
Looking up, her eyes were still calm, seemingly unaffected. She calmly arranged: "It's already very late today, everyone go back to your rooms to rest first. We can talk about anything tomorrow."
Having been teammates for so ti, those who knew Zhang Lexuan's character looked at her expression. Although they had questions in their hearts, they did not ask further.
Nodding, everyone followed Zhang Lexuan to check in at the hotel front desk.
However, at one point, Zhang Lexuan, who already had so guesses in her heart, couldn't help but look in the direction the Sun Moon Team had left. In the weariness and detachnt that had arisen from Shrek, a trace of struggle erged, but it was instantly replaced by determination.
At the back of the team, the Team Leader Teacher frowned, fiddling with the communication spirit tool in his hand. As a communication spirit tool he had bought from Mingng Chamber of Comrce for half a month's salary, the quality naturally wouldn't be a problem, but... why still couldn't he contact Elder Xuan?!
The Team Leader Teacher couldn't help but complain in his heart. It was always like this; every ti he had sothing to report, he couldn't find anyone! And every ti sothing happened afterward, they would ask why he didn't report it to him!
The Team Leader Teacher was in a bad mood, carrying a kind of resentnt belonging to a "worker."
A mont later, seeing no results, the Team Leader Teacher sighed and was about to put away the communication spirit tool. However, before he could put it away, a figure staggered over from his side,
"Elder Xuan?!"
The Team Leader Teacher recognized the person, but saw that Elder Xuan, who usually had a casual deanor, now had an ugly expression. His chest was pierced by an ice shard, and the biting cold spread continuously. Even as he rely approached, his body seed to be completely Seal.
Xuan Zi tried to speak, but after a few steps, he fell straight down.
Xuan Zi, unable to get up again... "So you directly attacked?"
"Mm, when you said your grandfather was Kong Deming's grandson, he showed a hint of killing intent, so I acted."
On the way back to the room, Snow Empress followed beside him, softly explaining the situation just now.
She was Kong Mingan's guard, and eliminating potential threats was naturally one of her duties.
"I only gave him one strike as a warning, not a serious injury, but it will probably keep him unconscious for an hour or two, followed by several weeks of bone-chilling cold."
Snow Empress said calmly. The human expert on the other side was quite strong. If it were a direct battle, she could defeat him with one blow, but it wouldn't be as silent as just now.
However... the other party clearly hadn't noticed her existence.
The opponent was in the open, she was in the shadows. Subduing him with one blow was naturally simple.
"Next ti, rember not to do that..."
Snow Empress lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, a little unhappy, but still nodded.
"Mm..."
"...If soone has killing intent towards , directly sever an arm."
"...Mm, mm?"
Snow Empress looked up, her eyes inexplicably clear.
"So people won't repent unless they're hurt. Severing an arm is also a lesson for him."
"..."
I think you might be a bit too extre... Kong Mingan glanced at Snow Empress, seemingly guessing what she was thinking, and calmly said:
"What kind of good person can harbor killing intent directly towards a child? Killing him directly would definitely not be an innocent act."
Snow Empress was stunned, blinking. She suddenly felt it made a lot of sense. After a slight pause, she couldn't help but ask:
"What about when you grow up in a few years?"
"Grow up?" Kong Mingan smiled, "Then I'll do it myself."
He was, after all, a Reincarnation with Awakening mories, not a direct Transmigration. So, theoretically, he was a young man in his teens, definitely considered young.
And young people, if they're not a bit spirited, how can they be called young people?
He was already being restrained.
