Good heavens, the ancestor has gone to confess his love again!

A strong, tingling sensation coursed through her body, almost causing her to let out a soft moan!

Bai Ruoning bit her lower lip tightly, using all her strength to swallow back the sob that almost escaped her throat.

That's too much...

Meng Anran, standing to the side, chuckled softly at the opportune moment, her tone gentle:

"This divine brew is mellow and lingering, and it really gets you drunk. You won't know until you drink it; the more you taste it, the more fragrant it becomes, and the more intoxicating it gets."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ruoning's heart tightened.

She didn't know why, but she always felt that Meng Anran's words had a hidden meaning, and that the way she looked at her was somewhat amused.

Xu Pingsheng looked bewildered, turning to look at Meng Anran with a puzzled expression.

When did this woman, who used to never drink a drop of alcohol, become a wine connoisseur?

Right now.

The one under the table...

"Oh ho..."

Bai Ruoning let out a muffled groan, hurriedly raising her hand to cover her lips tightly. Her whole body stiffened, and she almost exhausted the strength to sit upright.

Xu Pingsheng looked completely bewildered, his eyes filled with confusion: ???

What the hell?

What caused this noise?

It startled him!

Bai Ruoning's cheeks were so red they were almost bleeding. She lowered her head and hunched her shoulders, not daring to look up at anyone.

The space under the table was so cramped that there was nowhere to hide or retreat!

She tried to dodge, but there was nowhere to hide in that small space.

Unless you leave this place...

But leaving now would undoubtedly be a slap in the face to Xu Pingsheng and Meng Anran.

But if we don't leave...

This relentless audacity repeatedly shattered her aloof pride.

She really can't take it anymore!

Can……

Overwhelmed by shyness, embarrassment, grievance, and panic, his Dao heart, which had been stable for tens of thousands of years, completely collapsed. His nose tingled slightly, and a thin layer of mist rose in his eyes.

She, who was known for her ruthless and decisive nature and was once hailed as the White Tiger God of Slaughter, now felt a tender and bittersweet ache, almost bringing her to tears.

at this time.

Xu Pingsheng casually broke the silence, speaking in a nonchalant tone:

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Bai, I plan to have Xiao Meng'er participate in this year's Human Race Grand Competition. What do you think her current cultivation level would allow her to achieve a ranking of around [number]...?"

Before he could finish speaking, a trembling moan abruptly interrupted him.

"Oh my god..."

This soft, lingering sound spilled uncontrollably from his lips, carrying an unconcealable panic and disorientation.

Xu Pingsheng frowned, his face full of helplessness.

Come again?

It's just a few cups of divine wine, why are you making such a fuss?

Sister, your condition is really a bit scary.

He was about to ask the reason when his gaze fell upon Bai Ruoning's current appearance, and his eyes suddenly froze.

At this moment, Bai Ruoning had lost all trace of her usual cold, ruthless, dignified, and self-possessed peerless beauty.

She slumped limply against the cold, jade-like chair, her body weak and powerless, her delicate collarbones rising and falling slightly, her breathing rapid and disordered.

Her snow-white ears and slender neck were completely flushed with crimson, her entire face was bright red, her eyebrows and eyes were misty with a layer of watery vapor, and her whole body exuded a dazed and weak posture, looking almost like she was about to lose her mind, and she looked somewhat dazed and exhausted.

Xu Pingsheng was slightly taken aback.

That little face looks familiar, it seems to be...

next second.

Bai Ruoning could no longer maintain any semblance of decorum, and she no longer cared about etiquette, face, or social etiquette.

She suddenly covered her burning hot cheeks with both hands, and a flash of snow-white fairy light appeared around her. Her snowy shadow was ethereal, and her figure instantly became ethereal, disappearing without a trace in a flash, fleeing in a very hurried manner.

Xu Pingsheng: "??????"

Women are just so unpredictable!

He turned to look at Meng Anran beside him, whose expression was gentle and refined, with a puzzled look on his face:

"What's wrong with her? Do all women act this strangely when they're drunk?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze inadvertently swept over Meng Anran's figure, fixing on her legs. He immediately looked puzzled and exclaimed in surprise:

"Huh? Anran, what's going on with your outfit? Why are you wearing stockings on one leg while the other is bare? What kind of bizarre combination is this?"

A sly smile flickered in Meng Anran's eyes, but she feigned indifference, giving him a dismissive glance and speaking casually:

"Mind your own business? If you have nothing to do, go spend time with Luo Li and Xiao Meng'er, and stop worrying about this."

"Okay, fine."

Xu Pingsheng didn't think too much about it. He casually got up, turned around, and walked out of the hall with a calm demeanor.

The spacious and elegant room was suddenly empty except for Meng Anran.

She slowly stood up and gently pushed the ice jade chair that Bai Ruoning had just sat in back to its original position.

His gaze fell on the seat, which was not empty, and the gentle smile in his eyes deepened.

A slight smile played on her lips as she murmured softly to herself:

"It seems things are much easier than I imagined."

-

That night, Bai Ruoning suffered from insomnia again.

The unbridled, ambiguous tugging at the table kept replaying in my mind, even...

It twisted into maggots.

The next day.

The entrance to Yunmengze.

The Xu family members and all the disciples of Guanghan Immortal Palace stood ready, bowing and waving goodbye to the powerful figures who had carefully taught them in the swamp.

"Lion Gate Qing, Fox Golden Lotus, Senior Wu Dalang, take care! We're heading back to Kunxu now, but we'll definitely come back to visit you all when we have time!"

"Senior Green-haired Turtle, you may stop here to see me off; there's no need to go any further!"

"Teacher Bai Jie, the Ancestor has decided that the new Heavenly Court will still be located on the original site of the Guanghan Immortal Palace, which is very close to the new location! I will come to you again tonight for in-depth guidance on my cultivation. I still have many details that need to be studied one-on-one!"

Although Yunmeng Marsh is wonderful, Kunxu Realm is ultimately their home.

Most importantly, after more than two years of arduous training in the Yunmeng Marsh, where there was no suppression from the Heavenly Dao and an unlimited supply of natural treasures, everyone's cultivation has progressed by leaps and bounds, and they have undergone a complete transformation, becoming completely different from before.

To return home in glory is like wearing fine clothes at night—it's like wearing them in the dark!

Having finally taken off and defied fate, how could they not return to their homeland to show off their awesomeness?

They wanted to make those in Qingzhou and the entire human race who had once looked down on the Xu family, a small and insignificant household, see clearly!

What does "thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river" mean?

Don't underestimate the poor!
