Seeing the appearance of the shikigami, Nan Min suddenly stood up. For a moment, he regretted his previous actions. The shikigami immediately blocked in front of Yong Shanling, hindering Naiko's movement.
Naiko's eyes were full of red streaks, and she kept muttering, "Troublesome, troublesome, troublesome."
The moves she made were even more vicious, and the shikigami was a bit overwhelmed for a while.
"What should we do next, Qingyuan?" she asked anxiously.
"Control her."
In an instant, all the vines attacked her. Many vines wrapped around her hands. This time, the vines were of a different level, and Naiko couldn't break free. Her right hand was already controlled, and due to the strength of the vines, she was in so much pain that her knife fell to the ground directly.
Yong Shanling quickly took away her playing cards. Immediately, her name appeared on the screen.
As soon as this name appeared, a trace of tenderness flashed in the eyes of the sect master, while Hongye looked at the man beside her in surprise. As soon as the name appeared, everyone involuntarily looked at the sect master.
Han Chu shook his head helplessly. "It's a pity. I thought the forest was real, but unexpectedly, the real person is like this..."
"What happened in the forest?" Xiao Xi asked Han Chu curiously, but Han Chu ignored her. After all, the fewer people who knew about the forest, the better.
The two walked towards two different passages respectively. Naiko was already in a daze, looking so weak. After getting off the stage, Nan Min rushed towards her.
"Miss me after just a short while?"
"I don't know you." She walked away indifferently.
"Yong Shanling, you're so heartless. Why did you disguise yourself? Is there something you can't show?"
"Do you want me to... tell others about your disguise?"
Yong Shanling rolled her eyes at him and said speechlessly, "You're so cunning."
"So, come with me from now on?"
Nan Min put his hand on her shoulder, but she dodged aside and walked towards the exit.
"Since the two qualification places for the next round are already decided, I'll leave first. See you later."
But Nan Min still followed behind her. "Anyway, you're going to the guest room. Isn't it better to go with me?"
"Are you sure you don't want to comfort your Naiko?" Yong Shanling stopped, turned around, and looked at the man behind her.
"I think if you hadn't sent her a secret message just now, this game would have ended earlier."
Nan Min also stopped and walked away helplessly. Thinking of Naiko just now, he felt a bit troubled. "I'll come to you later."
Yong Shanling ignored what he said and walked away directly. Suddenly, a man rushed out in front of her, making her step back warily. When she took a closer look, it was the big man from before, with an IV drip beside him.
"Thank you just now. If it weren't for you, I might have really lost my life here today."
"But you won't be able to do much with your body in the future."
"Don't worry. I've signed a treaty."
The big man said helplessly and amusingly.
"Take this talisman. It's a... farewell gift?"
"Thank you, little girl."
Watching the big man walk away, she turned around and bumped into Nan Min's arms.
"Why haven't I seen you be so enthusiastic towards me?"
Yong Shanling quickly pushed him away, but how could she be stronger than Nan Min in strength? Looking at the person being hugged tightly in his arms, Nan Min couldn't help but chuckle and hug her tighter.
"Hahaha, really?"
"I didn't expect it either."
"Yeah, neither did I..."
Hearing a few whispers beside her, Yong Shanling got nervous. "Let go of me quickly!"
But Nan Min showed no sign of letting go. Leaning his head against hers, he said, "It's very simple for me to let you go. Just promise me one thing."
"Okay, okay, I promise you. Can you let go of me now?"
"I haven't said what it is yet."
"I can accept it as long as it's within my scope. So can you let go?"
"Okay."
Nan Min suddenly let her go and waved his phone. "Don't go back on your word. Let's go."
"Where to?" Yong Shanling looked at Nan Min impatiently.
"Of course, go to your room to talk."
"Can't we talk here?"
"If you don't want to be gossiped about, it's okay."
Yong Shanling sighed, went to the luggage storage to pick up her luggage and room card, and then entered the room with Nan Min separately.
She threw her luggage aside and sat down. Nan Min was pouring water beside her.
"So what's your condition?"
"There's a dance tonight. Be my female companion and show your real face."
"I refuse."
"If I could show my real face, why would I disguise myself?"
"I don't care. Anyway, you promised me."
"This is just being a hooligan." Yong Shanling took the water from his hand and refused him indifferently.
"Then I'll tell others. Actually... you're hiding from someone, right?"
"Cough." Yong Shanling choked a bit while drinking water and didn't dare to look at his face.
"Could it be that I'm right?"
"Okay, I'll attend the dance. You can leave first."
"Really?"
Yong Shanling directly pushed him out of the room, closed the door, and lay on the bed. Suddenly, she felt a bit tired. Looking at the photo of her and Uncle Shu on her phone, her nose felt a bit sour.
After turning off the phone, she thought that she must finish the matter first so that she could go back to see Uncle Shu. Otherwise, that thorn... would always be there.
For a moment, she lay on the bed and didn't know when she fell asleep. Until she felt a puff of hot air on her face, she immediately opened her eyes and sat up.
Then she saw Nan Min sitting beside her. He leaned on his head and lay down uncomfortably. "Why are you here?"
"I accidentally took your room card when I left just now."
"You did it on purpose, right?"
Yong Shanling said to him sleepily with her back turned to him.
"Sort of. By the way, aren't you going to change your clothes?"
"I think, I think this set is quite good."
Yong Shanling yawned and burrowed deeper into the quilt, but then she was pulled out.
"Nan Min, what on earth are you doing!"
Yong Shanling fell back on the bed like a deflated balloon.
"Here's your evening dress. Don't go back on your word again."
Yong Shanling scratched her neck and squinted at the man beside her. "Why do you want me to attend the party so much? Do you have some ulterior motive?"
"Tonight's party is for those who have entered the twelve - level ranking. Although it's a dance, actually only insiders can attend. Anyway, both of us have advanced. It's okay for us to go together, right?"
"Oh, I won't show my real face."
"Okay. Go and change your clothes with me first."
Yong Shanling took the clothes reluctantly and went to the bathroom. When she came out, what caught his eye first was a simple white high - slit evening dress. Her long hair was loosely pulled up, with two strands of slightly curly hair hanging down.
Yong Shanling walked out lazily. She wasn't wearing any jewelry. Her slightly parted red lips were like a seductive fairy, arousing people's nerves.
Nan Min walked behind her, took off her hair tie, and her sea - like black curly hair scattered on her chest. "Sure enough, you look the most beautiful without disguise."
