# Chapter 1179: Boom
With a loud "BANG," Luo Tianqing, still wearing a bathrobe, leaped onto the Sky Island with smoke practically shooting from her eyes!
(☄️😡☄️ꐦ) "Jiangnan?! I'm going to pluck him bald too, I swear!"
Her eyes swept across the island, but there was no trace of Jiangnan!
Zhong Yingxue was stunned: "Instructor Tianqing? Xiao Nan just left. Is there something you need him for?"
Luo Tianqing panicked. He ran fast—where was she supposed to chase him?
She quickly approached the two girls to vent her frustrations.
(°¯᷄😢¯᷅°) "So, listen. Last night I soaked in Da Li to cultivate and fell asleep!"
"This morning when I woke up... I... I was..."
Luo Tianqing's face was twisted with horror, blushing bright red as she tried to describe it but couldn't find the words.
˚‧º·୧(⑉Ծ😭Ծ⑉)୨‧º·˚
Zhong Yingxue's expression shifted to understanding.
(๑ᵒ̌🤤ᵒ̌) "Then you're still pretty lucky. Your hair and eyebrows are still intact."
Xia Yao snickered secretly.
(˵ಡ🤤ಡ˵) "Must be desertification, right? Lost all your vegetation coverage?"
Luo Tianqing covered her face and nodded. Where did she even come up with such a perfectly fitting metaphor?
She hadn't noticed when she lay down, but when she got up in the morning—it was all gone!
Xia Yao comforted her softly.
(.ớ₃ờ)ھ "Don't worry, we've all been through it, right? It's actually pretty convenient. Let me tell you, gurgle gurgle~"
Luo Tianqing looked at her in utter shock!
(ᵒ̴̶̷̥́😱ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀)!!!
This... this... none of you have it either?!
Just how freakish is this Da Li stuff?!
Good thing I didn't wash my face or hair, or I'd be beating Jiangnan to death in the Academy right now!
...
At Rongcheng Airport, Jiangnan was strolling through the waiting area holding Mila by her legs.
Mila, clutching two Pocket Rabbits, was looking around for any sign of Haitii.
This combo definitely drew a ton of stares.
Not to mention, the lipstick marks all over Jiangnan's face and body were eye-catching enough!
"Oh my god! It's Nan Shen! Is he heading to the Fish Country on a diplomatic mission? I saw the news yesterday!"
"Tsk~ Nan Shen's nightlife is that wild? He didn't even wipe off the lipstick? Slurp~"
"Is that the War God? I want a life that wild too!"
In an instant, Jiangnan became the center of gossip.
Because of the lipstick marks, no girls came up asking him to sign their faces!
Xuexue and Lang Mie's safety measures had been quite successful!
[From Luo Tianqing: Resentment +1000!]
Jiangnan shuddered hard.
Tianqing Pillar must have caught that hairless disease, right?
ƪ(･᷄😐･᷅๑) "Jiangnan Gege, I can't find her anywhere~"
Jiangnan pulled out his phone and called directly.
(•︠😮•︡)ᕤ "Yo? I'm here. Where are you? Weren't you supposed to come pick me up?"
On the other end, Haitii's trembling, nervous voice came through.
ᕦ(๑😣😣๑) "Ah~ Jiang... Jiangnan Ge? I'm waiting at Zone Y2! I'm wearing a blue sun hat and a white dress!"
Jiangnan: (๑•̌.•̑๑)?
Zone Y2?
With a teleport, Jiangnan appeared in Zone Y2.
Sure enough, there was Haitii in a white dress, her deep blue hair falling to her waist.
Her sapphire eyes seemed to reflect an endless ocean.
And beside her, Roberta was still in her maid outfit—round glasses, two braids, and a Spirit-Binding Steel greatsword strapped to her back.
Her rank was already Diamond Nine.
Quite a few people had gathered around, some even taking photos with their phones.
After all, the two of them had incredible presence.
Anyone watching might think it was a cosplay shoot!
The moment Roberta saw Nan Shen, she was startled—what's with all the lipstick marks?
Then she nodded at Jiangnan with a look of disgust and turned away.
Haitii, on the other hand, ran over excitedly, arms open for a reunion hug.
Jiangnan smiled and opened his arms too.
But Haitii's face slammed into the two Pocket Rabbits instead, her big eyes full of confusion.
Mila held the two Pocket Rabbits up against Haitii's face.
(՞｡😶😶｡՞)ᵒ̌😐ᵒ̌(՞｡😶😶｡՞)
With a dead serious expression.
(｡˘•😐•˘) "No princess-carry!"
She was on a mission!
Sister Xue and Sister Yao had bribed her with 100 lollipops!
Keep an eye on Jiangnan Gege and make sure he doesn't get kidnapped by a princess!
Jiangnan covered his face. Princess-carry wasn't supposed to mean that, right?
(ﾉ)😭(ヾ)
When did Mila start going off track too?
Haitii looked a little disappointed, but immediately perked up, happily rubbing the Pocket Rabbits' heads.
"Are these Pocket Rabbits? They're so cute~"
Jiangnan cleared his throat. (｡˘ก˘｡) "They might look cute, but when they get mad, they're terrifying. Most Diamond ranks can't beat them."
"They love playing beat-'em-up!"
Haitii yanked her hands back in fright, too scared to touch them but wanting to.
ԅ(☍😣⁰ԅ)
Mila placed one Pocket Rabbit on top of Haitii's head.
Haitii started trembling, frozen in place as if sealed.
(՞｡😏😏｡՞)
(๑😣😣๑)
Roberta: "Lord Jiang Military Governor! Please board the plane. It's ready for you."
Jiangnan rolled his eyes. "We're old friends. Don't bother with the formality!"
He placed the other Pocket Rabbit on Roberta's head.
Roberta: ...
(՞｡😑😑｡՞)
(˵¯͒😐¯͒˵)...
The four of them headed for the boarding gate without even going through security.
Jiangnan had expected a check—at which point the alarm would definitely go off.
After all, his steel-like will couldn't be hidden from the scanners!
...
At 30,000 feet, the cabin played soothing music with lavish decor.
The four sat facing each other in aviation massage chairs, which were busy massaging Jiangnan and Mila.
Both of them wore blissed-out expressions.
(ૢᵔ😇ᵔ)ૢ⁼̴😇⁼̴)...
"Private jets are way too luxurious. I thought we were flying commercial!"
Haitii giggled. "You're a Military Governor, silly! Of course we have to greet you with state-level礼仪!"
"A lot of my siblings want to meet you!"
At this, Roberta's face showed concern.
She seemed to want to say something but held back.
Haitii kept chattering on.
"When we get to Fish Country, there's a welcome party. Tonight, we've prepared a grand banquet—super lively!"
"Oh, and we have to visit the Landis Academy. The students you saved during the Abyss mission really want to see you!"
"And also, Starlight Beach is gorgeous. We have to go! If you're interested, we can go diving in the Landis Ruins. The coral is beautiful!"
Haitii rambled on like a little girl showing off all her treasures to her best friend.
Her eyes were so clear, without a hint of scheming.
Jiangnan just smiled and listened attentively.
Being around Haitii, he felt relaxed—at least she never played mind games.
Just then, a flight attendant in a pencil skirt pushed a cart over.
Her blonde hair was tied in a bun, her makeup flawless. She carried herself elegantly.
She poured black tea for Haitii and Roberta.
Then she turned to Jiangnan with a professional smile.
(✽⌒😊⌒) "What would you like to drink, sir? Black tea? Or perhaps tequila?"
Jiangnan was sizing her up, his eyes wandering.
Hey, seeing a pretty lady always brightens the mood, right?
(･᷅😏･᷄) "Got any Nutri-Express? Or maybe AD Calcium? You Super Yogurt works too."
The flight attendant's smile froze.
(٥⌒😊⌒)...
[From Kunsha: Resentment +666!]
"We... we don't have those, sir. Would you like something else?"
Roberta turned her head to the window, her face tight with held-back laughter, her hands nearly shredding her skirt.
(◦Ծ😄Ծ) Mmm~
A Chinese Military Governor!
The Jiang Devil! World's Strongest Platinum!
And he wants Nutri-Express?!
Jiangnan pouted. (•̀😐•́｡) "Then two glasses of milk."
Kunsha quickly poured two glasses of milk for Jiangnan, who downed them with Mila.
Haitii, feeling thirsty from all the talking, reached for her black tea.
But Roberta stopped her.
She took the teacup herself, took a small sip, and savored it on her tongue.
Then she gave a slight nod.
Haitii seemed used to this and took the cup to drink.
Jiangnan licked his upper lip, somewhat surprised.
A poison test too?
On her own family's plane, what kind of precautions were these?
His gaze casually drifted to the flight attendant's legs.
(•︠😏•︡❥) "So, do Fish Country private jet flight attendants have to undergo close-combat physical training?"
"Royal standards, I guess?"
Roberta's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean?"
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow.
(❥◔😏◔ิ❥) "Her calf muscles are unusually tight, and her Achilles tendon is long."
"The soleus muscle is well-developed. You can't get that without a lot of physical training and hand-to-hand combat drills."
The moment he said that, the cabin atmosphere froze.
The flight attendant pushing the cart paused, a chill flashing in her eyes.
Jiangnan was confused. "What? Why's everyone gone quiet..."
Before he finished, Roberta grabbed her steel greatsword, vaulted over the seat, and swung at the flight attendant!
Kunsha didn't hesitate—she snatched the cart and slammed it hard at Roberta!
Her other hand pressed the button on her collar!
"Worry about your own master first! Hmph!"
The next moment, the wooden table beneath the booth exploded!
An overwhelming burst of light and heat erupted!
Thousands of tiny steel pellets shot out in all directions from the blast!
Jiangnan: !!!
Holy crap!
A bomb under the table? And this power?
How many blocks of C4 did they stuff in there? A custom Spirit-Binding bomb?!
Those pellets were all Spirit-Binding Steel!
From the explosion to the pellets flying—everything happened in a flash!
At this range, it was practically point-blank!
Roberta's eyes were wide with fury!
"Master!"
Jiangnan propped his chin up, looking completely unfazed.
(͡°😐ก°)✧ "So riding a plane is this exciting, huh?"
