Chapter 362: The Trembling Cherry Blossoms

The moment Jiangnan threw a pair of slippers onto the ground!
Nightingale immediately became alert!
It was almost six o'clock, and knowing Jiangnan's nature, he would definitely try every possible way to escape!
"What are you going to do?"
Jiangnan put on the Extreme-Speed Slippers, and they fit perfectly!
In an instant, he felt confident. Hands on his hips, his face was full of arrogance!
"I'm going to escape! You can never shackle a heart that yearns for freedom!"
Aren't you fast?
I've got triple movement speed, stacked with teleportation!
I refuse to believe you can catch up!
Nightingale's eyes widened: "You're not even hiding it now? Try running, and let me see!"
She looked Jiangnan up and down. All he had on was a pair of shorts printed with Cherry Maruko!
With that getup, where are you going to run to?
"See? I'll show you!"
In an instant, Jiangnan's figure vanished from the room!
Sure enough!
With the Extreme-Speed Slippers on, his feet were light as the wind!
Triple movement speed was stacked on him!
The cooldown interval for teleportation almost completely disappeared!
In just one second, he had covered five kilometers!
Heading straight for the university town!
He looked back! There was no sign of Nightingale at all!
"Freedom! Here I come!"
"Stinky Nightingale! Just eat my dust, haha!"
At the same time Jiangnan teleported away, Nightingale activated her ability and gave chase!
But all she saw was a back view, wearing Cherry Maruko shorts, sprinting wildly through the snow!
A plume of snow dust rose behind him!
He vanished in an instant!
Nightingale was shocked! Normally, at her speed, catching Jiangnan was a piece of cake!
But now, she was being shaken off?
"H-How... is this possible? So fast?"
What was up with Jiangnan?
Seriously, how determined were you to go set up that street stall?
Running through the snow in just shorts?
Aren't you cold?
"Spiritual Art: Swift Steps!"
"Boom!"
Spiritual light flared wildly around Nightingale. With a sudden burst of acceleration, her speed increased again!
Finally, she caught sight of Jiangnan's "taillights"!
(Note: "Taillights" refers to the two red blush spots on Cherry Maruko's cheeks!)
As shown: (●❛ัヮ❛ั●)
Jiangnan looked back and panicked!
She was actually catching up?
"Ahhh! I'm going all out! Blood Incineration!"
With Blood Incineration activated, white steam rose from Jiangnan's body!
His speed surged, and in an instant, he disappeared from Nightingale's sight again!
Nightingale: !!!
Hey hey hey!
Is this really a Silver rank? Don't joke around, okay?
Even Li Daotian wasn't this impressive when he was Silver, was he?
No, no! You can't find a more impressive Silver, can you?
"Spiritual Art: Snail Turbine Screaming Duck!"
A signature skill from the Snail Duckbill! The acceleration effect is terrifying!"
Nightingale's speed suddenly skyrocketed! This time, she directly caught up to Jiangnan!
The two of them were running side-by-side!
Nightingale looked at Jiangnan leisurely, her face full of contentment: "Not cold? How about we go home, cutie?"
Jiangnan: (・᷄ὢ・᷅)
Do you think I've run out of tricks?
This is an insult!
A blatant insult!
The university town was almost there! For freedom!
I'll give it my all!
Jiangnan casually grabbed a handful of snow from the ground and pressed it hard against his own back!
"Ouch! Cold! Cold!"
In an instant, Jiangnan's speed increased again, leaving only a constantly trembling "taillight" for Nightingale!
Nightingale: =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
Th-This... To shake me off, he's already using physical cheats?
Do you have to be so cruel to yourself?
I'm starting to feel a bit sorry for you, you know?
But Jiangnan had clearly underestimated the speed of a Diamond-tier powerhouse!
Nightingale caught up again, still looking relaxed!
She even had the leisure to pull out her phone and take a few quick shots of Jiangnan!
After all! This kind of scene of the Southern God was rare!
Jiangnan was going crazy! You're still taking pictures of me?
How shameless!
Nightingale stifled a laugh: "Come home, okay? You'll freeze to death! Look! Even Cherry Maruko is shivering!"
Jiangnan was full of reluctance!
He knew he could go even faster if he drank some 'Da Li', but unfortunately, he just couldn't muster the courage!
"Alright then!"
Failed to escape again?
How frustrating~
So Jiangnan decided to stop running!
He prepared to come to a halt!
Because it was indeed quite cold!
"Hm... stop... stop... stop..."
Jiangnan: !!!
Why the hell can't I stop?
At this moment, Jiangnan realized!
His feet were completely out of his control!
They were stepping wildly, without pause!
From the side, Jiangnan's two legs were just a blur!
Like a continuously spinning wheel!
Jiangnan's face was extremely dark at this moment!
He finally understood the side effect of the Extreme-Speed Slippers!
Can't brake!
Once you start running, you absolutely cannot stop!
At this moment, Jiangnan felt like crashing into a wall and dying!
As expected! The participation prizes were getting more and more ridiculous!
How long did this side effect last?
If it's another goddamn 24 hours, I'll be exhausted to death!
Scared, Jiangnan didn't dare use teleportation anymore, or he would definitely be drained dry!
But even without teleportation, his speed wasn't slow!
His two legs were completely like a pair of invincible "Fiery Wind Wheels"!
Even though Jiangnan wanted to take off the Extreme-Speed Slippers, he couldn't find a way!
Nightingale was full of confusion: "Didn't you say you weren't running anymore?"
Jiangnan's face turned even darker, and he didn't want to say a single word!
Amidst vast white snow and biting cold wind!
What slipped from the corner of his eye was the passing of his youth!
At this moment!
Even though it was six o'clock in the evening, the university town was still packed with people!
A massive crowd, all there because of Jiangnan's Weibo post!
There were even many streamers, influencers, and reporters!
They were all eagerly waiting!
"Ugh~ It's already 6:01! Why isn't the Southern God here yet?"
"Could he be messing with us?"
"Knowing the Southern God's nature, that's definitely possible!"
"Ahhh! I really miss the Southern God! Why isn't he here yet?"
"Whoa! What's that?"
One person stared in shock at the street beside him!
Everyone followed their gaze!
They saw a rolling cloud of snow dust charging wildly towards the university town!
A figure could vaguely be seen!
But before they could get a clear look!
That figure made a big leap, riding the momentum of its speed, and jumped straight into the air above the crowd!
Silhouetted against the full moon, people finally saw the figure clearly!
It was Jiangnan, wearing only a pair of Cherry Maruko shorts!
And on his feet, a pair of smoking slippers!
"Brothers and sisters! We'll have to postpone today!"
"See you tomorrow at six! For sure!"
Everyone's expressions were identical!
∑(ŐдŐ๑)
In an instant, countless cameras and phones were aimed at Jiangnan's figure!
A frenzy of camera flashes!
In the blink of an eye, Jiangnan landed, stirring up another cloud of snow dust, turning onto the ramp!
He charged straight onto the Jiang-Qing Expressway!
Immediately after, a shadow chased after Jiangnan!
At this moment, the university town was a sea of people, yet completely silent!
What the heck was that?!
Everyone looked at the photos they had just taken!
In the picture, the night sky was full of stars! A full moon was exceptionally bright!
Jiangnan, wearing Cherry Maruko shorts and slippers!
Posed as if leaping over a hurdle, as graceful as a flying goddess!
So stylish!
Because of his high speed, the image was even a bit blurry!
The media was ecstatic!
They didn't get to see the Southern God setting up his stall! But this photo was clearly even more explosive than setting up a stall!
"Hurry, hurry! Get it online!"
"Are... are you sure that's okay?"
"The Southern God himself doesn't care about his face anymore, so why the hell should you?"
