Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 197 The Engagement Ring? We Do!

Cheng Xiao had nothing to hide from Mu Nujiao and Jiang Shaoxu, and told them everything that had happened during this period.

Although Mu Ningxue already knew, she still listened quietly from the side, and it was clear that she was enjoying the atmosphere.

As long as Cheng Xiao is alright, that's all that matters.

"Hmph! I've long been annoyed by those snobbish, condescending guys from the Holy Tribunal. Now that the captain has become the leader of the Holy City, it'll infuriate them." Jiang Shaoxu felt a sense of satisfaction at finally getting revenge.

"From now on, if you don't like anyone in the Holy Judgment Court, just say so, and I'll beat them up for you." Cheng Xiao pinched Jiang Shaoxu's cheek.

"I don't like those archangels."

"I've already beaten him up."

"."

Mu Nujiao, on the other hand, was more concerned about Xin Xia's condition.

But now, Xinxia has already become the sole ruler of Parthenon, so there's nothing to worry about.

Mu Nujiao was finally relieved.

"How's the situation with the clan? Is there anything seriously wrong?" Cheng Xiao asked.

"With Nu Xin and Senior Sister Yu Meng around, the clan is thriving. But the Da Li family is deliberately trying to hinder it, especially during the month you've been in the Holy City."

Mu Nujiao paused for a moment, then continued:

"Only after hearing that the Holy City was going to hold an award ceremony for us again did the Da Li family restrain themselves, and they probably won't dare to go too far for some time to come."

"After hearing the news, Nu Xin couldn't wait to see you. She said that you hadn't had a chance to meet her alone before because you were too busy."

The Da Li family is the local power in Fei Niao City, and they also have close ties with the Mu family.

The feud between Cheng Xiao and the Mu family is no small matter and cannot be resolved in a few words.

Cheng Xiao would find it strange if the Da Li family were to behave themselves.

Cheng Xiao nodded:

"Okay, I've got it."

The grudges between the Dali family and the Mu family will be settled slowly when we get back.

"How is Sister Qin doing lately?" Cheng Xiao asked Mu Ningxue.

"She went to Tianshan to cultivate in seclusion. She didn't return until half a month after I went back. She had already broken through to the third level of the Super Rank. She was very worried about you," Mu Ningxue said softly.

"Breaking through to the third level of the Super Rank...that's pretty much what I expected," Cheng Xiao said in a low voice.

Last time, Qin Yu'er broke the seal and was already at the Super Level 2, very close to Super Level 3.

Given her cultivation speed, it would be abnormal if she hadn't broken through to the third level of the Super Rank in the past year.

Next, we need to consider the issue of advancing to the forbidden spell.

"And what about you?" Cheng Xiao continued to ask.

"The ice element is about to break through to the third level of the advanced stage."

As soon as Mu Ningxue finished speaking, Cheng Xiao gave her a hard knock on the head.

"Why did you hit me?" Mu Ningxue covered her head, looking aggrieved.

"It's too slow," Cheng Xiao said.

"I've already tried my best." Mu Ningxue frowned slightly; she dared not slack off.

"These are for you."

Cheng Xiao lifted Mu Ningxue's small hand and slipped an ice diamond ring onto her slender jade finger.

Mu Ningxue stared blankly at the scene, seemingly still unable to react.

How sudden! She wasn't even ready, why is she already wearing a ring?

"Don't overthink it, these are your cultivation resources," Cheng Xiao explained.

Mu Ningxue scanned the ice diamond ring with her consciousness and discovered that it was a spatial ring.

The space contains all sorts of luxurious ice-type natural treasures, which are coveted even by super-level mages.

She even possesses the Star Sea Celestial Vein. With these resources, she could probably break through to the Super Rank in less than six months!

But upon hearing Cheng Xiao's words, Mu Ningxue couldn't help but mutter a complaint under her breath:

"You're already wearing a ring, and you're telling me not to overthink it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Xiao pulled her into his arms without warning.

"Then think about it more. It's been a while since I've really thought about it." Cheng Xiao smelled Mu Ningxue's fragrance and missed the familiar gentleness.

Mu Ningxue blushed. Was she going to eat her up in front of her sisters again?

Although she was used to it, Mu Ningxue still couldn't help but feel ashamed.

"The captain is biased," Jiang Shaoxu said quietly.

Mu Nujiao didn't seem to care and appeared quite excited, clearly having entered battle mode as well.

"I knew you'd say that."

Cheng Xiao had come prepared, and put different styles of spatial rings on Jiang Shaoxu and Mu Nujiao.

"Captain, I do!"

Jiang Shaoxu didn't even look at what was inside the spatial ring; she had already completely fallen for it.

Mu Nujiao wasn't as open as Jiang Shaoxu, but she still slowly responded:

"Me too."

Cheng Xiao's expression was strange; he had clearly given her a spatial ring containing cultivation resources.

Why does the style suddenly change when it comes to Jiang Shaoxu, like she's being given an engagement ring?

She's led Mu Nujiao astray.

"Are these cultivation resources what the captain obtained from the treasure hunt?"

"Of course not, I didn't get that many resources from the treasure hunting space."

"Where did it come from?"

"The Holy City's Treasury".

"."

..............................

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Cheng Xiao, Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao, and Jiang Shaoxu went completely crazy all night before they could barely feed the three women.

Of course, this is far from enough to fill the longing during this period of separation; at least another three days and three nights are needed, as Jiang Shaoxu said.

Cheng Xiao was helpless, as she not only had to take care of the three team members, but also two older sisters from the Lingyin Trial Society.

How can I manage to take care of both places by myself?

After Leng Qing found out, she said in a sarcastic tone:

"Hmph! I didn't expect my junior brother to be so strong and vigorous. Even after your senior sister and your sister Tang Yue have been feeding you for so long, you still can't get enough."

"Stop being sarcastic. Cheng Xiao is tired. Let him have some nourishment." Tang Yue pushed the pigeon soup in front of Cheng Xiao.

"Thank you, Sister Tang Yue." Cheng Xiao looked happy.

Although these supplements are of no use to him, since he now possesses the physique of a monarch.

But it was my sister's kind gesture, so I couldn't refuse.

"You just keep spoiling him! Aren't you afraid of spoiling him rotten?" Leng Qing said unhappily.

"Back then, you were always bragging about Cheng Xiao in front of me, saying you doted on him the most." Tang Yue scoffed at her best friend.

"Cheng Xiao doesn't just belong to you anymore. There are many people who love Cheng Xiao, but you're not happy."

"On the surface, you're jealous, but actually you're trying to win favor by making Cheng Xiao love you more, right?"

"Leng Qing, Leng Qing, where is your former aloof and arrogant nature?"

"Or are you afraid you can't compete with me, or with those younger girls?"

Tang Yue mercilessly exposed her best friend's shameful act, leaving Leng Qing's face turning pale and then red.

"You think I'm afraid of you and those little girls competing with me for my favor?" Leng Qing was flustered inside, but her words remained defiant:

"Fine, let's team up then! Tonight I'll show you what true difference there is!"

After saying that, Leng Qing pretended not to care and left, but the blush that reached her ears betrayed her shame at that moment.

Seeing Leng Qing flee as if escaping, Cheng Xiao couldn't help but lean against Tang Yue's chest and sighed:

"Sister Tang Yue, it's so good to have you."

"Good little brother~~"
