"Student Ding, do you still need my help?" Zhang Chenran ignored Dean Li and asked Ding Yumian.
After struggling for a while, Ding Yumian raised her head with a smile on her face:
"I'm much better now, thank you."
"Haha, in that case, let's go." Dean Li smiled at Ding Yumian.
Ding Yumian said "hmm", lowered his head and walked past Zhang Chenran, and left with Dean Li and the two mages from the Magic Association.
Zhang Chenran stood by the lake and watched the four people leave.
...…
The icy tides from the ocean crashed toward the shore, accompanied by a biting cold wind.
On the shore, Ding Yumian, Dean Li, and two escorting Pearl Tower leaders came over.
"It's an honor to meet you. My name is Zhuang Yue. I'm a member of the Mo City Congress and the person in charge of this project." Zhuang Yue extended his hand, showing gentleness and friendliness.
Ding Yumian had no expression on her face and did not extend her hand.
In response, Zhuang Yue just smiled:
"Student Ding, you know, the sea monsters are coming now. Even though Councillor Zhang just killed an East China Sea emperor, the sea monsters' offensive has not stopped. We are still unable to resist the fierce sea monster army. I hope you can implement the plan on that island and stop the Extreme Shell Monster army for us this time."
He pointed to a reef island a few kilometers away.
This is already outside the sea embankment and is already a battlefield area. Further away is where the sirens are lurking.
If the plan can be implemented in the lurking place of the sirens, then the army of sirens that Demon needs to face will all be destroyed!
Zhuang Yue took out a bloody dagger and handed it over, looking helpless:
"I know it's very difficult for a student like you to do this..."
"No need to say more, I know what to do, and I'm doing it for the Pearl Academy!"
Ding Yumian interrupted him and took the dagger containing the power of curse.
"Haha, Mingzhu Academy represents the Magic City, and the Magic City also represents the entire Jiuzhou. Not only Mingzhu Academy, the Magic City, but even the entire Jiuzhou will remember your efforts!" Zhuang Yue said with a smile.
No matter how nice his words were, Ding Yumian never showed much emotion from beginning to end.
But when she just grasped the dagger, her white jade-like hand couldn't help but tremble slightly.
She was scared and she didn't want to leave like this.
The reason why she went to find Zhang Chenran was because she was begging for a glimmer of hope.
But in the end, she gave up because she and Zhang Chenran were not that familiar with each other.
Even if Zhang Chenran had the ability to protect her, she couldn't find any reason for Zhang Chenran to do that for her.
Since I am a trouble, then so be it. Death may be a relief.
"Wait a minute!"
A very discordant voice broke the silence and interrupted Ding Yumian's wild thoughts.
Everyone looked at Ding Yumian, or more precisely, at the figure behind her.
That figure emerged from the shadow behind Ding Yumian. No one present noticed it, not even Zhuang Yue, who had reached the pinnacle of cultivation.
The moonlight shone on the man, and everyone could see the true appearance of the figure.
"Zhang Chenran?"
Zhuang Yue frowned. When did this guy hide in Ding Yumian's shadow? What did he want to do?
"Councilman Zhang, what are you doing?" Dean Li was puzzled.
Zhang Chenran ignored them and looked at Ding Yumian with a gentle smile:
"I'm curious about what this plan is. Can you tell me about it?"
Hearing this, Ding Yumian was stunned and his eyes subconsciously dodged.
"Councilor Zhang, this is our Magic City's top-secret plan. I can't reveal even a single bit to you," Zhuang Yue said.
"I don't seem to be asking you." Zhang Chenran glanced at him.
Just by looking into his eyes for a moment, Zhuang Yue felt as if a demon had grabbed his throat. He stared with his eyes wide open, unable to utter a word, and his spirit was on the verge of collapse.
They were both top-ranked, so why was this young man so strong?!
The temperature around them seemed to be getting even colder, and the two top-ranked people in the Pearl Tower and Dean Li didn't dare to breathe.
Obviously Zhang Chenran did nothing, but they couldn't suppress the fear, the fear from the bottom of their soul.
"You came to me for help because of this before? Why do you suddenly change your mind?" Zhang Chenran asked.
"I, I."
Ding Yumian was a little flustered, not knowing whether she was afraid that Zhang Chenran would attack Zhuang Yue and Dean Li, or because of his concerned questioning.
"If you don't tell me, I'll watch it myself."
Zhang Chenran lowered his head and placed his forehead against Ding Yumian's. The two seemed to have reached some kind of consensus and entered the spiritual world together.
Ding Yumian was stunned for several seconds before realizing that he had entered the spiritual world, and there was a strange figure in the spiritual world.
"Let a student die to preserve part of the battle line. What a top-secret plan." Zhang Chenran sneered and continued to spy.
The memories that were spied on were no longer related to the "top secret plan", but more about Ding Yumian's childhood, the memories of years of loneliness, and some hatred buried deep in his memory.
When Zhang Chenran was about to peek into more detailed memories, a powerful mental force pushed him back.
"Stop, stop looking!" Ding Yumian said shyly.
Those memories are private to her!
Although she didn't know why Zhang Chenran had such a powerful ability to spy on her memory.
But for some reason, Zhang Chenran's offensive behavior gave her an unprecedented sense of security.
You must have got your focus wrong. Zhang Chenran smiled at her:
"You won't tell me when I ask you. Do I expect you to stammer and tell me if I don't check it myself?"
"This, this matter has nothing to do with you." Ding Yumian said in a low voice.
Zhang Chenran smacked his lips, a little distressed: "Can't you be stronger?"
"Ah?" Ding Yumian saw that his eyes were a little cold and didn't dare to look directly at him.
"You are obviously very scared and terrified. You obviously care about Mingzhu Academy and everything you have, but now you just want to escape and pretend that nothing matters." Zhang Chenran poked her in the forehead fiercely: "A
woman who says one thing and means another!"
Ding Yumian's little soul covered his head and glanced at him cautiously.
"I never refuse beautiful women. Since you've come to me, I'll take care of this matter." Zhang Chenran smiled and said,
"Don't worry, I know what you're afraid of. Leave it to me. Let me handle this matter."
...…
Both regained consciousness.
Zhang Chenran withdrew his spiritual pressure on Zhuang Yue and Dean Li.
Then, he took Ding Yumian's hand and walked past the four people.
"Zhang Chenran, do you know what you are doing?" Zhuang Yue said in a deep voice, suppressing his fear.
"I know it very well. You are just afraid of her identity as a disaster victim." Zhang Chenran sneered:
"I will take care of her!"
Zhuang Yue's face was gloomy, but he didn't dare to take a step forward, and he didn't even dare to think of stopping the two from leaving.
This person in front of me is really scary
