# Chapter 1134: Right in Front of Everyone?
On the villa roof tiles, Mountain Cat sat hugging her knees, gazing at the night sky, her big eyes filled with grievance!
(๐˃̣̣̥᷄～˂̣̣̥᷅)
The Luo Clan was still the same Luo Clan!
Wanting to keep to themselves while also trying to gain benefits from the country.
Seeing that the Chen Clan had completed their Spirit Gauze and were doing well in the Western Frontier, had they also started to have ideas?
Clearly, father wanted Jiangnan to complete the Luo Clan's Spiritual Muscle Jade Bone technique, but didn't want it to spread!
So he thought of using marriage to bind Jiangnan and herself together.
Making her ask Jiangnan for help herself...
Thinking of this, Mountain Cat angrily tugged at her hair, quietly sobbing.
୧(°¯᷄﹏¯᷅°)୨
She knew that Xiao Nan's condition for helping complete the spirit technique was to include it in the textbook, allowing everyone to cultivate it and have the opportunity to strengthen themselves!
To have the capital to face the unknown in this unpredictable era!
But the Luo Clan clearly didn't want that, still wanting to keep the spirit technique hidden and stand above others.
Mountain Cat pulled out her phone, looking at Jiangnan in her special attention list, teardrops pattering onto the screen!
She didn't want to open her mouth and ask Jiangnan for help with this matter!
She knew that once she spoke, Jiangnan would definitely do it!
But Mountain Cat didn't want that...
She had always wanted to be the older sister who protected Xiao Nan!
Always worked hard not to be left behind by him!
Jiangnan was too outstanding!
So outstanding that she had to cultivate with all her might just to not fall behind!
She didn't want to trouble Xiao Nan over personal matters. Would Xiao Nan start to dislike her because of this?
And her family wanted to match her with Jiangnan, this... this was simply mortifying!
But on one side was her family, the place that raised her, and on the other side was Jiangnan. Mountain Cat was caught in the middle, not knowing what to do.
She tightly hugged her knees, buried her head deeply into them, shoulders trembling slightly as she quietly sobbed...
(☍﹏ก̀)
Just then, her phone vibrated. She saw a WeChat message from Luo Tianqing!
She wiped her tears and began to reply.
"Conspiring to deceive me, huh? Stinky sister! Go die!"
Luo Tianqing lay on the ground, grinning slyly, her two little O's lightly bouncing as they patted the mattress, making a "boom boom boom" sound!
In the room downstairs, Gong Lin curled up under the covers, trembling as she stared at the cracks on the ceiling...
Tianqing Pillar: "(｡ớ.̮ờ) Dad asked me to cooperate. The condition is that he won't rush me to find a partner anymore, hahahaha!"
"Hey~ this is for your own good too, just agree, okay? Besides, Jiangnan really wants to learn Spiritual Muscle Jade Bone!"
Luo Tianhong: ???
"How do you know?"
Tianqing Pillar: (Image).jpg×3
The pictures were of Jiangnan with a bruised and swollen face, covered in bumps!
Clearly taken in the physical training room!
In the picture, Jiangnan looked wronged and pitiful, even trying to grab the phone!
(︶.̮︶✽)ﾉ "I've already inspected the goods for you. He can fight pretty well, but he's no match for me, hehehe~"
"Let me tell you, Jiangnan is amazing, and he's really skilled, with incredible foundation. You'll definitely get along!"
"If you don't want him, I might just make a move myself, yo~"
Mountain Cat: !!!
Looking at the picture, she jumped up from the rooftop instantly, eyes wide open!
(๑ŏ口ŏ๑)
Inspected the goods? Amazing? Really skilled?
Hiss~ What did you do to Xiao Nan?!
How does sis have a picture of Xiao Nan? Did she go to Pioneer Academy?
In an instant, countless images flashed through Mountain Cat's mind!
War God Tianqing rushed to Pioneer Academy, beat up Jiangnan, and the wronged Jiangnan fought back desperately but ultimately couldn't escape her sister's clutches!
Not only was he inspected, but pictures were taken as a threat so he wouldn't tell anyone?
Luo Tianhong: (•̥́口•̀ू) "Sis! You you you... went to the academy and did that to Xiao Nan?!"
At this moment, Mountain Cat completely exploded, staring at the picture of a shirtless Jiangnan!
Her mind went blank!
Tianqing Pillar: (˵¯͒ꇴ¯͒) "Yahaha~ That's right! I beat him up right in front of everyone! You don't know, he cried so pitifully~"
"He fought desperately, but he was no match for me at all!"
Mountain Cat almost coughed up blood from her heart. Right in front of everyone?
You... how could you dare?
Did Xiao Nan suffer serious psychological trauma?
In an instant, Mountain Cat felt like she couldn't breathe, like something precious was being taken away from her.
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "You're not human! How could you do this to him?! You you you... ptooey! Shameless!"
Luo Tianqing grinned wickedly. Hmph! How could she let Xiao Hong know she actually lost?
Doesn't sister need to save face?
(˵ಡ‿ಡ˵) "He's really quite good, you know? Consider it, okay? It's for your own good and for the family's good too!"
"I'm now a mentor at Pioneer Academy. Tomorrow I'm going to the Ant Nest Maze near Kun City!"
"Once I enter the Ling Xu, I won't be reachable. You need to hurry up, sister is worried for you!"
Luo Tianhong: !!!
٩(*･᷅口･᷄*)۶ "Warning you! Don't you dare lay a hand on Xiao Nan again! Don't you dare!"
Tianqing Pillar: (ಡωಡ) "Ah la la~ Still saying you don't love him? Then why such a strong reaction?"
With that, she sent another picture of Jiangnan looking wronged!
"Bang!"
The newly replaced phone was crushed by Mountain Cat again, smoking and bubbling in her hand!
Another Xiao Yi comrade had fallen...
Mountain Cat was furious. Her own sister did that to Xiao Nan?!
How could she?!
She wanted to ask Jiangnan about it, but looking at the smoking phone, Mountain Cat's face darkened!
Now she wanted nothing more than to rush straight to the academy!
But then she thought, if Jiangnan found out it was her sister who... you-know-what-ed him...
How would he see her?
He might even start to dislike her!
(ง˃᷄口˂᷅)ง "Ahhh! Stinky sister! Go die!"
...
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Kun City, at the entrance of the Ant Nest Ling Xu Tiankeng Karst Cave!
Even late at night, it was still bustling here!
Near the Tiankeng was a market spontaneously organized by Explorers!
For trading spirit pearls, spirit materials, and such!
At the Tiankeng entrance, Explorers and Spirit Martial Force members could be seen coming and going!
The cleanup operation had been going on for a while.
And Hua Yin, Fu Lei, and a few others, all in black clothing, arrived near the Tiankeng entrance!
Fu Lei whispered, "Have all the personnel from each family been arranged? Don't cause any trouble!"
001 chuckled softly, "Don't worry, they're all disguised as Explorers and stationed inside the Ant Nest Maze!"
"The complex terrain of this Ling Xu is perfect for us to operate. Once those freshmen come in, they'll be lambs to the slaughter!"
Cowboy Milan Duo sneered, "This is a gift of an opportunity. They can only blame themselves!"
"Not doing the test at the Toy House, but coming to this Ant Nest Maze instead?"
Hua Yin frowned, "Are the retreat arrangements prepared after the operation? After all, this is on Hua Xia's turf. Don't let them trap us like turtles in a jar!"
001 sneered, "Don't worry, with me here. Besides, the space gate of the Ant Nest Ling Xu isn't limited to this one location!"
Fu Lei took a deep breath, "Alright! This is the first collaboration of our Rabbit-Stealing Alliance. Don't screw it up!"
"Let's enter the Ling Xu! But our identity levels might be a bit troublesome."
Hua Yin chuckled, "Leave that to me!"
As she spoke, hundreds of thousands of slugs crawled out from under her clothes and attached themselves to the three of them!
The slugs began to deform and disguise!
In the end, they transformed all three into unremarkable Eastern faces, with their levels disguised as just above Platinum rank!
Milan Duo's eyes sparkled, "That's convenient of you, but also kinda disgusting."
Hua Yin glared, "Shut up! Want to rot away? Why so much nonsense! Down into the Ant Nest!"
The trio successfully slipped through the screening and plunged into the Ling Xu, starting their plan!
The Rabbit-Stealing Alliance's plan was simple. Since they couldn't deal with Pioneer Academy,
They could always deal with the freshmen, right?
Just capture them and threaten the academy's high-level officials, and they'd have to agree to any conditions.
By then, to ensure the hostages' safety, the Pocket Rabbits would naturally be handed over.
All preparations were made, the plan was watertight. All they had to do was wait for the arrivals.
That same night!
Guan Hu, Ling Feng, and a group of mentors stood by the Tiankeng, pulling black hoods over their heads!
Only their eyes and mouths were visible!
Guan Hu: (◉෴◉) "Hehe~ Follow me down. Let's make some preparations first and give the little ones some excitement!"
The other mentors excitedly acknowledged and dove into the Ling Xu one by one!
...
And for the freshmen, this night was destined to be sleepless!
All freshmen stood on their balconies with legs stiff, staring at the pitch-black night sky, eyes hollow, as if they had lost all ambition!
Damn it! They couldn't fall asleep at all!
The moment they lay down, they couldn't control themselves and started kicking!
[From Xie Xie's Resentment Value +1000!]
[From Luo Changge...]
Standing in his room, Jiangnan slept especially soundly under the refresh of resentment values!
The next morning, Jiangnan excitedly ran to call Xuexue and Lang Mie to go catch mice!
But Xuexue and the others had already gotten up early to cultivate, even skipping the activities!
Do they have to be this hardworking?
Jiangnan left a note and ran out. He charged straight to the Toy House, ready to show his skills!
But Han Menglu told him that Cat and Mouse was canceled and wouldn't be held here this year.
Jiangnan was stunned. Why didn't anyone inform him beforehand?
Still, the trip wasn't wasted. He left the Star Gate star chart and the large piece of Void Sea core fragment here.
He planned to have Sister Menglu and Jiang Ning work on repairing the Star Gate!
He also left many duplicate space-type spirit pearls and that conch key!
After all, if the Star Gate was fixed, it would be a great treasure that could go to the Proxima Centauri star system!
As for the safety of the Sky Island Pocket Rabbits, Jiangnan wasn't worried, since Jiang Ning and the uncles and aunties were there!
So he dashed to the playground. By now, ten thousand freshmen had already assembled!
Even many senior students had come over. The Itch Men Group led by Qin Shou had finally gotten rid of the itch curse!
They made it just in time. Seeing Jiangnan approach,
Countless freshmen with big dark circles under their eyes looked over, including Qin Shou and the others, with resentful gazes!
(ꐦ◉～◉)
Resentment values were refreshing like crazy!
