Brother Cheng, who was already halfway out of his clothes, suddenly sensed soone approaching from afar.
He quickly pushed Yin Xuer away.
"Soone’s coming!"
"Oh no, it’s Lin Ning!"
Brother Cheng swiftly transford back into his Azure Dragon True Body.
Damn!
Yin Xuer almost swore out loud.
So close again.
"Cos neither early nor late, she’s doing it on purpose, isn’t she?"
Yin Xuer didn’t expect that she’d hit the nail on the head with her words.
Soon, Lin Ning entered Brother Cheng’s palace.
Upon seeing her, both their expressions were sowhat unnatural.
"Greetings to the Azure Dragon Emperor."
Brother Cheng sat upright and nodded.
Lin Ning unceremoniously asked, "Yin Xuer, haven’t you finished what you were saying to the Great Emperor?"
Yin Xuer’s eyebrows shot up: "Watch your words, I’m your martial aunt!"
Lin Ning gave her a side glance, your blush hasn’t faded yet, don’t think I don’t know what happened.
"With your Demon King Level power, you’re not qualified to be my martial aunt," she said deliberately.
This girl, how could she speak like that?
I did say to treat everyone equally, but the hierarchy of seniority should still be recognized, right?
Brother Cheng almost wanted to scold her, but considering his identity as the Azure Dragon Emperor, he refrained from saying anything.
"Just you wait for !"
After Yin Xuer left in a huff, Lin Ning took over her still warm seat.
Brother Cheng was very cautious facing her.
After all, in his knowledge, Lin Ning didn’t know his identity and needed to be kept in the dark.
"Ahem, did you co to see for anything important?"
Lin Ning shook her head slightly.
"I heard that you’ve t our Sect Leader Jiang, haven’t you?"
Uh, did I ever say that?
It seems I did ntion, to conceal my identity, I said I was an admirer of Sect Leader Jiang.
"I have indeed t him, why?"
"Is he doing well?"
Doing very well, sitting right next to you.
"He should be...fine, I guess?"
"I miss him greatly."
"I..."
Looking at her gazing intently at him, her eyes filled with deep feelings, Brother Cheng almost blurted out the truth in a mont of impulse.
No, no, no, I should wait until I’m in the late-stage Quasi-Emperor before revealing it.
At this low realm, it’s too embarrassing.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Nothing."
Lin Ning’s delicate face softened: "I have a small request, can you grant it?"
Brother Cheng thought, if you have a request just make a hundred of them, making only one is looking down on , isn’t it?
"No problem, what’s the request?"
"Could you transform into Sect Leader Jiang’s appearance? I really want to see him again..."
Sect Leader Jiang was taken aback, what a strange request?
However, it seed harmless and sothing he could easily do.
"Fine, I’ll fulfill your wish."
With a blink, he changed back into human form, though his clothes weren’t fully worn yet.
Lin Ning saw it all happen.
Good thing she arrived in ti!
Brother Cheng was still trying to cover for it: "I’m just mimicking his appearance, don’t actually think I am him."
"That elder is imnsely powerful, surely he’s an Immortal Emperor by now!"
"In terms of realm, you and I are nowhere near him, not even one in ten thousand."
Lin Ning laughed inwardly, a hundred million years have passed, yet so parts of your nature haven’t changed at all.
She mustered her courage and boldly reached out her hand: "May I touch you?"
Ah, this!
Sect Leader Jiang felt this request was rather inexplicable, could this girl have seen through his identity?
But looking at her eyes filled with pleading, his heart softened, and he nodded.
"You may."
So, Lin Ning unhesitatingly grasped his hand, her body gradually moving closer.
Brother Cheng could feel the girl’s hand trembling, thinking to himself ’fake’ yet she’s still so excited?
Just as he was about to ask if it was enough, she wrapped her arms around him completely.
"You..."
"The previous Sect Leader used to let hug him, why not?"
Lin Ning lifted her head, her big eyes filled with innocence and admiration.
What could Sect Leader Jiang say? He could only allow her to embrace him, and even tighter...
He felt as if he had turned into a pillow, had this girl forgotten she’s already a late-stage Quasi-Emperor? Brother’s almost out of breath here!
After hugging for a while, she then made a new request.
"Could you give a kiss?"
Pfft!
Brother Cheng almost spat blood on the spot.
Isn’t this progressing a bit too quickly?
Unlike the Second Generation Disciples like Yin Xuer whom he saw as contemporaries upon first eting, Lin Ning always seed like the younger generation to him.
Even after a hundred million years, even if Lin Ning preserved her appearance at 20, his impression stayed the sa.
It was indeed a tough hurdle for his heart.
"This... is a bit much, isn’t it?"
Lin Ning responded without hesitation: "Sect Leader Jiang often kissed before!"
What the hell?
When did I ever kiss you?
Don’t make stuff up!
Brother Cheng almost blurted it out, but rembering he was now the Azure Dragon Emperor before her, he swallowed his words.
"Did he...he really treat you so intimately?"
Lin Ning nodded vehently: "Yes, he always regarded as his fiancée, we were always together, inseparable."
You...
Brother Cheng was speechless, so this was how you’ve been portraying our relationship behind my back?
Good for you, Lin Ning, I wouldn’t have realized how capable you are of fabricating things if I weren’t incognito!
"But, I’m not him!"
"It’s fine, I can see you as him."
"Isn’t this a bit excessive?" Brother Cheng’s eyes drifted.
Lin Ning reached out and steadied his head, their eyes eting once again.
"Would you not grant such a small request?"
Is this still a small request?
Brother Cheng felt a tumult of emotions, but gazing into those innocent, pleading eyes, his heart softened once more.
The girl simply missed him too much!
Fine!
"Close your eyes then."
"Okay!"
Her luscious lips right before him, flawless and tender.
Her thick lashes quivering slightly, revealing inner tension.
Brother Cheng took a deep breath, unable to muster a reckless intention in front of her.
As he leaned down, he extended two fingers, intending to use them to ’kiss’ her in place of his lips.
Yet before his hand could reach between them, Lin Ning caught it in a flash.
"No tricks!"
Her obedient eyes remained closed.
Brother Cheng smiled bitterly, eventually relenting and kissing her.
As their lips t, Lin Ning’s heart soared.
Success!
This thod works wonders!
Previously, he always maintained the Sect Leader deanor, never overly intimate.
Now, by pretending not to know his identity, bypassing a nonexistent barrier, he was actually much more natural.
By leveraging his half-hearted compliance, their relationship could advance further.
I’m truly a genius!
If Brother Cheng were to use Mind Reading Technique on her now, he’d definitely gain a new understanding of her.
But alas, how could he bear to use skills on his disciple?
After their lips parted, they gazed into each other’s eyes silently, hearts pounding.
