Perhaps she had expended too much energy, cried for a long time, and was also frightened.
Before she could even murmur a few words, her breathing became steady, and soon she fell asleep.
"Phew~" Ye Qiu also breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, she was fine, otherwise, he wouldn't know how to explain it to Ning Fengzhi!
'Speaking of which, the three of them aren't in the Sect. They must have already rushed to Heaven Dou City!'
The moment he understood what had happened, Ye Qiu immediately went to look for Ning Fengzhi and the others, but he couldn't find them. He figured they must have been drawn over when Tang Hao's aura was unleashed.
He picked up Ning Rongrong, and a vortex appeared, with the two of them vanishing from their spot.
After a transfer through the Divine Might Space, they reappeared, already back at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
He gently placed her on the bed.
"Brother~ Is Sister Rongrong alright?"
The mark on Ye Qiu's chest flickered, and Xiao Lan's voice came through.
"What do you think?"
He replied to her grumpily.
She had vanished right in front of Ning Rongrong, which truly terrified her. She still looked haggard now.
"It's all that Tang Hao's fault! If only Sister Rongrong and I weren't still shopping~ Xiao Lan hadn't even finished her candied hawthorns~ He's truly detestable!"
"..." Listening to her gritting her teeth, Ye Qiu was a little silent, feeling somewhat sorry for Ning Rongrong.
"Alright! You should quickly reform your body!"
"Got it~ Brother, help me!"
He glanced at Ning Rongrong, who was still unconscious, then sat cross-legged by the bed, controlling his spirit power to surge into his chest.
Half an hour later, a faint green glow slowly seeped from Ye Qiu's body, gradually drifting away and gathering beside him to form a faint human figure.
Gradually, the figure continuously solidified, turning into a physical entity.
"Brother!"
Before Ye Qiu could even open his eyes, a heavy weight crashed into his arms.
"It hurts so much here..." She pointed to her neck, her watery eyes looking at Ye Qiu, pouting her lips, seeking comfort.
"Ah!" Xiao Lan cried out in pain, covering her forehead, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.
"It's over, and it still hurts?" He looked at her speechlessly, and at the same time, flicked her forehead.
"But... it really hurt before, that taste of death... it was too unbearable!" As she spoke, the corners of her eyes became moist.
She hugged Ye Qiu, leaning against him. "Xiao Lan was so afraid she wouldn't see Brother again~"
Ye Qiu returned the embrace, gently patting her fragrant shoulder, "Don't worry, Brother will definitely avenge you in the future!"
Just as he had comforted her, Ye Qiu was chased out of the room by Xiao Lan. She wanted to wipe Ning Rongrong's body.
"Sigh! This treatment..."
Standing outside the door, Ye Qiu felt a little indignant in his heart. How many days had it been? Having a sister meant she didn't need her brother anymore!
He returned to the pavilion and sat down, waiting quietly. Leaning against the stone table, his thoughts had already drifted far away.
'I wonder how Xiao Wu is doing. Soto City, we'll see each other again then, right!'
"Ah!"
"Sister Rongrong! Oh dear..."
Ning Rongrong's scream suddenly came from the room, interrupting Ye Qiu's thoughts.
"Ah! Xiao Lan! Don't come over! No! I didn't hurt you..."
Her voice was tearful, with a hint of fear.
Ye Qiu quickly ran over, and just as he was about to open the door, he was stopped by Xiao Lan's voice.
"Brother, you're not allowed in! Sister Rongrong isn't wearing clothes!"
Inside the room at this moment, Ning Rongrong was sitting on the bed, continuously backing away, pressed against the edge of the bed, leaning against the corner of the wall, trembling.
Xiao Lan had already been kicked off the bed and was rubbing her chest, tears welling up in her eyes.
...
At the same time, the various major powers had also learned about Tang Hao's appearance in Heaven Dou City.
East Palace! Crown Prince Xue Qinghe's residence.
Porcupinefish Douluo was reporting to Xue Qinghe about Tang Hao's appearance in Heaven Dou City today.
"Young Master! What should we do?"
"What to do? Do you have any trace of him? Hmph, let's put it aside for now! I'll write a memorial to Xue Ye, asking the Clear Sky Sect to compensate for this loss!"
Spirit City! Supreme Pontiff Palace!
A somewhat enchanting blonde man stood below, bowing, his demeanor respectful.
"Supreme Pontiff Your Eminence! Do we need to find Tang Hao?"
"No need! Let those old geezers busy themselves. They're not in a hurry, why should I be!"
...
The attitudes of the various powers towards this matter differed.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan still maintained an attitude of not getting involved.
And Tang Hao's origin, the Clear Sky Sect!
Inside, there was already a chorus of curses. Already secluded, their lives were very meager.
Now, a large sum of compensation appeared out of nowhere, making their already impoverished lives even more difficult!
Tang Xiao had also started arguing with several Elders.
"Bastard! That Tang Hao is no longer a member of my Clear Sky Sect. Why should we compensate for the damage he caused?!"
"Several Elders! Why don't we take this opportunity to bring Brother Hao..."
"Shut up! Tang Hao has long ceased to be a disciple of my Clear Sky Sect. Now that he's caused trouble again, he still wants to come back? Does he not have to pay the debts he owed before?"
"All of this is his own doing!"
...
Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi and the others had already returned and were asking the servants about Ning Rongrong's whereabouts.
"Sect Master! Young Lady Rongrong is currently at Young Master Ye Qiu's residence..."
Now.
Ning Rongrong was no longer trembling. After Xiao Lan's patient explanation, she had calmed down.
She was in the room, continuously rubbing Xiao Lan's tender face.
Cupping her cheeks, tears streamed down her face, a mix of joy and relief, as she embraced Xiao Lan.
"Xiao Lan~ That's great! You're really alright!"
"Sister Rongrong~ It's all Xiao Lan's fault for scaring you~"
She silently patted Ning Rongrong's head. She was increasingly fond of acting like a little adult, her eyes narrowing.
"Sister Rongrong! You should quickly put on your clothes! Otherwise, Brother will come in and see you naked~ Haha!"
"Mhm!" Ning Rongrong, whose face had been pale, now had a hint of flush, gently nodding her head.
"Xiao Lan? Are you done?"
Listening to the shouts, then cries, then laughter, then silence from inside.
Ye Qiu couldn't help but urge them.
Click!
The door opened, and it was Ning Rongrong who opened it.
At this moment, she had actually changed into a strapless nightgown, her delicate collarbones and shoulders exposed. The hem of the skirt barely covered her buttocks, and the thin, sheer fabric was somewhat revealing.
Her swollen eyes and haggard face gave her a sense of fragility.
Her smooth, lotus-like arms and straight, slender legs were a bit dazzling...
Noticing Ye Qiu's gaze, her shame was mixed with other emotions, but as soon as she thought of what happened that night, only annoyance remained. Her beautiful eyes glared at Ye Qiu.
"Where are you looking, you scoundrel?!"
Ning Rongrong's ears were a little red. She had no other clothes in her spirit tool, and this one was just bought today while shopping.
"Ah!? Cough, cough. I, I didn't do it on purpose!"
Ye Qiu withdrew his scrutinizing gaze, his face a little awkward, his eyes almost rolling to the top of his head. He just hadn't reacted in time.
"Uh, are you alright?" He scratched the back of his head unnaturally.
"N-nothing! Come in quickly..."
