The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

Thinking hard, Anthony murmured in bewilderment:

"That's hardly a small punishment!"

……

……

On the other side of the ball, Rod stood solemnly holding a wine glass, oblivious to the people passing by. He stood like a nail in the middle of the hall.

He kept thinking about one thing, repeatedly recalling a sentence.

As Ning Feng brushed past him, the other man whispered those words in Luo De's ear with a soft laugh.

After a long silence, Rod looked up, somewhat puzzled, and murmured to himself with deep emotion:

"Could this be considered a blessing in disguise?"

I thought I was going to lose everything this time, but I was surprised to be favored by the Watchers!

"After that, he asked me to go to Bincheng to find him... What was it about?"

Not far behind Rhodes, who was deep in thought, Fran, the vampire awakener, twitched her nose in a strange way.

After Ning Feng and Xi Lin left, she stared at the ground they had passed, and finally murmured to herself with some uncertainty:

"Could it be..."

……

……

"So why did you run away on your own?"

Ariana, as if she had been holding it in for a long time, kept asking Ning Feng questions incessantly:

"According to the conventional storyline, you should be there enjoying the adulation of beautiful women and getting involved with those legends who are interested in you, shouldn't you?"

That's probably the best way to handle it!

The black cat was excited, but Ning Feng refused.

"I think what you said is secondary, so there's no need to dwell on it anymore."

Stop, stop, let me tell you.

"Actually, I just don't want to lose a friend."

Number 86, a friend who knows a few secrets of his, though not many.

We got along quite well before, there's no need to make things so awkward.

In addition, Ning Feng genuinely felt that those things were unimportant; he had already obtained the most precious thing.

"And what I said to Andrew wasn't a lie; I really hated the way they talked and the way they looked at me."

They weren't looking at Ning Feng, but at his background, his talent, and the possible stargazer watching from behind.

They didn't care about Ning Feng himself, or rather, at this moment he only accounted for a very small part.

Ultimately, it all boils down to a lack of power; Ning Feng himself wasn't that important to them.

"And, most importantly, I really want to go home."

"I miss home so much right now, and I miss her so much."

"Wow! What a touching thought! How could you say such a scumbag thing as missing other women while hugging a woman!"

"But I don't mind at all~ because you're already having a pleasant chat with another woman."

Ha ha……

Ning Feng caught a glimpse of Xilin out of the corner of his eye, smiled slightly, tightened his grip on her arm, and said:

"She doesn't have time to think about these things now; what she needs more time is to process the shock she just experienced."

There were so many shocks, not only about their first experience in Sky City, but also about a lot of other news.

And in a half-dreaming, half-awake state, she agreed to Ning Feng's request to attend the banquet in a masquerade-like manner.

Xilin used to hate these kinds of occasions, but Ning Feng felt that she couldn't possibly stay at home all her life.

Although it's a bit late to make changes now, he thinks it's worth a try.

You can't just say you hate it without experiencing it, right?

If Xilin still dislikes it after trying it, then Ning Feng thinks it doesn't matter if she stays at home, since she's lived like this for over two hundred years anyway.

Instead of returning in the most traditional way, Shirin used the Sky City's teleportation array to teleport directly to the Coastal Branch.

Ning Feng did not see the Stargazer again, and he did not know whether the other party was deliberately hiding or had not shown up for some other reason.

But Ning Feng knew that while they were waiting, a pair of eyes were quietly watching down from the city's tall tower.

She kept watching them, never looking away.

She kept her eyes on him.

This time, Ning Feng no longer felt uneasy; instead, he felt at ease.

He pulled the bewildered Shirin to bow towards the tower before calmly stepping into the teleportation array.

Upon returning to the Bincheng Watch Society, Xilin, who had been in a daze, suddenly stepped out of Ning Feng's arms.

Ok?

Ning Feng looked at her, puzzled, wondering what she was suddenly doing, while Xilin said earnestly:

"I still have some other things to take care of! You go back first, I... I'll go now!"

Before Ning Feng could ask, she teleported away from the teleportation array, leaving Ning Feng alone to watch her disappear with a strange expression.

Ning Feng: ? ? ?

Although Xilin's words sounded grand and had seemingly legitimate reasons, Ning Feng always felt that there were some problems he had overlooked.

What's going on?

Before he could figure it out, another desire in his heart had already left him no time to think about these trivial matters.

After he came out of the teleportation array room, he quickly walked towards Shirin's room on the top floor.

bang.

Ning Feng pushed open the door and, before he could even look around, he saw the figure he had been longing for.

Jiang Wan!

Even though it had only been a few days, Ning Feng felt as if a long time had passed.

He was about to speak when he heard Jiang Wan's cold, angry voice:

"You still know how to come back?"

Ning Feng: ?

Dangerous!

Chapter 259 Avoiding the problem won't solve it, but...

Anger, resentment, gnashing of teeth...

It's hard to imagine that Ning Feng could glean so much emotion from Jiang Wan's short sentence.

It was at that very moment, upon hearing that harsh tone, that Ning Feng's perception of life and death suddenly spiked to its extreme!

Danger! Ning Feng! Danger!

Danger!

He had never been this nervous, not even when facing the negative false gods of the ascended gods.

Something's definitely wrong!

No, no, no!

In less than a breath, Ning Feng's mind was constantly analyzing the source of the danger.

Could it be because he didn't win the championship?

No, Jiang Wan isn't the type to care about that kind of thing.

That means...

As if seeing a large, bright red, blood-red character before his eyes, Ning Feng suddenly realized that his return was extremely ill-timed.

He had been ignoring one thing all along.

Ning Feng did indeed ask Jiang Wan and Xi Lin to wait for him at home, and the two agreed to his willful behavior and obediently stayed at home.

But if Xilin slips into the Star Chaser competition, what about Jiang Wan?

Where is she?

Unlike Xilin, Jiang Wan didn't sneak in; instead, she stayed obediently at home...

one person!

Recalling how Xilin had frantically teleported away earlier, Ning Feng already had the answer in his mind.

"Shirin, you sold me..."

A young elf, fearing retribution later, betrayed her lover, with whom she had just shared a bed, to her rival.

[Shirin sneaked away!]

[Xilin used the item card "Barehead - Ningfeng" on Jiang Wan!]

[Exceptionally effective!]

Shirin has successfully escaped!

! ]

Wow!

How could you do this?
