Chapter 72 The Last Time

……

"Aren't you afraid now?" Mu Ningxue asked.

"I..." Mo Fan was stunned. The magic artifact on his chest emitted a strange magic power, cooling down his heroic spirit.

At the same time, a deep sense of lingering fear suddenly surged up.

"I'm scared!" Mo Fan's expression froze.

Holy crap! What the hell is going on?

Is he possessed?

"It's good that you know fear." Mu Ningxue stood up.

"For the sake of our many years of friendship, and as an apology for what happened back then, I'll pretend I didn't hear what you said tonight. Otherwise, if he finds out you still have feelings for me, and even dares to make such bold statements, guess what will happen to you?"

Lu Cheng's feelings for her were always cold; they never warmed.

They are the same kind of people.

Love is not something supreme in their eyes; it's something they can have or they can not have.

When she was little, she didn't understand things, but over the years in the capital, she has seen a lot and has gradually come to understand.

Lu Cheng has his own desires. He is very realistic. In his eyes, feelings are indeed important, but they are not something he can't let go of. They are not even as important as his own feelings.

Therefore, Lü Cheng truly didn't care about that incident back then.

He didn't care whether she had changed her mind, nor did he care about her past, or even how she was at other times.

What Lü Cheng cared about was how she acted in front of him.

As long as she loves him when she's with him, that's enough.

I don't care about the past, I don't care about the future, I only care about the present.

Living in the moment—Lü Cheng truly embodies these four words.

This is also the truth behind Lü Cheng's indifference.

He wasn't indifferent; he just didn't care.

After all, what's the point of caring?

Don't worry about things you can change; worrying about things you can't change is useless.

It only adds to the trouble.

She envied him, envied that he could be so open-minded.

Lu Cheng wanted to take everything, but he could also let go of everything; he was greedy, yet went with the flow.

So she felt relaxed when she was with him, without having to think about anything or worry about anything. At least now, at this very moment, she was alive and happy, and that was enough.

"But unfortunately, I already know."

Lu Cheng's cold, eerie voice suddenly rang out, and Mo Fan instantly felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet, striking straight to the top of his head. Any remaining thoughts he had vanished without a trace.

It's even more effective than the mind-controlling magic artifact!

"Brother Cheng, I was wrong!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Mo Fan gave a perfect 90-degree bow.

Lu Cheng ignored Mo Fan and looked at Mu Ningxue instead, saying, "You've really grown up."

Mu Ningxue used to be very naive; at least before Bocheng, this girl didn't understand anything.

But now, this girl sees things very clearly, and her understanding of him is almost on par with that of Ye Xinxia.

It seems that disasters and shocks can indeed accelerate a person's growth.

"I'm not a child anymore, I don't have the right to be childish." Mu Ningxue stepped forward and hugged Lü Cheng tightly.

"Are you angry?" Lu Cheng gently patted Mu Ningxue's back.

"Hmm," Mu Ningxue groaned.

Knowing is one thing, understanding is another, but that doesn't mean she can be indifferent to this bastard's scheming against her!

"Want to take a bite? Like before?" Lü Cheng placed his hand near Mu Ningxue's mouth.

Mu Ningxue tilted her head back, giving me a look that said, "Do you think I'm a dog?"

Does it bite when it gets angry?

"Isn't...it true?"

"Aww!"

Mu Ningxue glared at Lü Cheng's wrist and bit down hard.

asshole!

"Forehead……"

Seeing the scene before him, Mo Fan felt extremely frustrated.

Late at night, first he threatened me, then he fed me dog food. What did he do to deserve this?

"Have you had enough?"

"..."

Mu Ningxue opened her mouth with a resentful look.

I can't bite it!

so hard!

It felt like biting into a steel plate; she almost broke her teeth!

"Alright, if you want to bite, let's do it another time, another way. For now, just hold it in, okay?" Lu Cheng said.

Mu Ningxue blushed. "I won't bite."

"That's not up to you." Lü Cheng pinched Mu Ningxue's flushed cheeks.

"You just bit me, so I have to bite you back."

"As for where to bite, that's my prerogative."

"You scoundrel!" Mu Ningxue spat lightly.

Lu Cheng raised an eyebrow. "What, you want me to bite you right now?"

"No!" Mu Ningxue grabbed Lü Cheng's wrist nervously.

"I...I'm not ready yet."

"Then you'd better get ready quickly." Lu Cheng tapped Mu Ningxue on the head.

"Otherwise, we'll have to wait our turn."

Mu Ningxue's expression froze. "Bastard!"

She understood exactly what those words meant.

"Whether you're a bastard or a hooligan, you can't escape." Lu Cheng placed his hand on Mu Ningxue's head, unleashing the magic of the horse talisman.

"I told you I'd only be responsible for one year. When that time was up, why didn't you come looking for me?"

Feeling the coldness being suppressed within her body again, Mu Ningxue pursed her lips, "I don't want to cause you any trouble."

She didn't know what kind of method Lü Cheng used to suppress even the corrosive effect of the Ice Crystal Bow on her soul.

But what even the Mu family couldn't do, will definitely not be easy.

"If you really don't want to cause me trouble, you should come to me first when you encounter problems, instead of keeping them bottled up," Lu Cheng said.

"Suppressing your feelings won't solve anything; it will only lead to bigger problems."

"At that point, can I just stand by and do nothing?"

Mu Ningxue nodded with a complicated expression. "I understand."

"Knowing is useless, you have to do it." Lu Cheng shook his head.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Mu Ningxue's temper won't change anytime soon.

"Xiao Fanzi, should I say, isn't your courage commendable?" Lu Cheng looked at Mo Fan, who was sneaking away.

"Uh..." Mo Fan turned around awkwardly.

Damn it! Xinxia isn't here! We're doomed!

"The last time."

After saying that, Lü Cheng took Mu Ningxue's hand, turned around, and walked towards the church.

If we don't go over there soon, people might actually die in the fighting.

Mo Fan stood there stunned for a long while before letting out a long sigh.

"We still have to let it go..."

……

boom!!!

Inside the church, flames blazed, star trails streaked across the sky, and star maps coalesced...

"It's quite lively late at night."

Lu Cheng's voice carried a special magic, and quickly calmed the crowd who had lost their minds.

"It's finally stopped!"

Luo Song was almost in tears. It was bad enough that these people had gone crazy, but they were all aiming their shots at him alone!

What did he do to deserve this?

"Teacher Lü!"

Upon seeing Lü Cheng's arrival, Bai Tingting and the others, who had still managed to maintain their composure, burst into tears.

I almost died here!

"Stop!" Lu Cheng's mental shock knocked everyone in the church unconscious.

"It's so annoying so late at night..."

Under Mu Ningxue's disdainful gaze, Lü Cheng approached Mu Nujiao, picked her up from the ground, and put her back in her sleeping bag.

"I thought you were going to do something while she was asleep," Mu Ningxue said.

Lu Cheng was speechless. "Do you think I'm the kind of loser who takes advantage of others in their time of need?"

"Hmph." Mu Ningxue snorted softly, her mood improving considerably.

At least, he didn't go too far in front of her.

……

The next morning.

The group, their backs aching, woke up on the ground and, with Mu Ningxue's explanation, learned what had happened the previous night.

If Lü Cheng hadn't intervened, knocking them all unconscious and killing the bewitching spiders in the river, they would have certainly suffered many casualties last night, if not all of them had been wiped out, due to infighting.

Having so directly experienced the dangers beyond the safe zone, the group, still shaken, were unwilling to continue the mission. Mu Ningxue, the captain of the Imperial Capital Academy team, also decided to abandon the survey operation and return home.

"Where's Mo Fan?" Bai Tingting asked with some concern.

"Could he be dead?" Luo Song said with a hint of schadenfreude.

"Even if you die, I won't die."

Mo Fan's voice rang out from behind him, startling Luo Song.

"Mo Fan, you..." Bai Tingting hadn't finished speaking when she saw the surveying instrument in Mo Fan's hand.

"When did you go?"

"Seeing you guys sleeping so soundly, I was bored, so I just went out and collected the data," Mo Fan said casually.

After what happened, it's obvious these guys won't continue the survey, but if the mission fails, his rewards after entering the main campus will be reduced.

He was very poor and couldn't bear to waste a single resource.

"Ha! Your luck..."

"Hmm?" Lu Cheng glanced coldly at Liao Mingxuan, who was about to mock Mo Fan again.

Why are these jealous little brats so annoying?

Liao Mingxuan felt a chill run down his spine and quickly shut his mouth.

The others didn't waste any more words. In this desolate wilderness, their small team of so many people was in such a sorry state, while Lü Cheng, acting alone, didn't even have a speck of dust on him, which was enough to show how terrifying his strength was.

My condition was already bad, and if I were to stumble upon my only lifeline, I might really have to stay here!

[Invincible Build] [Portable Grandpa Build] [Change the Original Tragedy]

Lu Dou was playing Plants vs. Zombies Hybrid Edition when, unexpectedly, he turned into the most basic hybrid plant—a pea and a sunflower.

He transmigrated into the world of Full-Time Magician and became a plant-type demon, making it difficult for him to move forward in the magical world and even in human society.

But he soon discovered that his hybrid plant could actually evolve!

In the Tianshan Mountains, where ice elements are abundant, he transforms into an archer of ice fruits and icy cattails!

In the desolate city of Jinlin, rich in earth elements, he transformed into a true god—the Destruction Cannon, who could decide the fate of the world with a single shot!

Not only that, the energy bean enhancement made Lu Dou exclaim, "My youth is back!"

It all started when he drank from the sacred spring and evolved into the Wild Peashooter...
