2988 Too Disliked
Qiao Mu pursed her petite lips, her gaze fixed upon Holy Son Miyan, whose face and neck had flushed a deep crimson. She let out a disdainful snort and remarked, “How absurd.”
Engaging in a dispute with Her Ladyship Qiaoqiao over a trivial matter of prestige was undeniably tedious.
Her Ladyship Qiaoqiao hadn’t initially intended to reprimand her, but she was compelled to approach and implore her.
Holy Son Miyan felt so stifled that she no longer wished to cast another glance at the young stoic.
Once everyone successfully endorsed the covenant, Holy Son Miyan couldn’t help but release a deep sigh while casting her gaze toward Qiao Mu and Mo Lian. The more she surveyed them, the greater her antipathy toward them swelled.
As they hadn’t signed the covenant, they remained unbound by the laws of heaven and earth.
If they happened to stumble upon more than one treasure within the mystic realm, wouldn’t it be to the benefit of these two individuals…
Bah, bah!
Holy Son Miyan swiftly dispelled this notion from her mind.
How could they possibly be so fortunate? Discovering one or two treasures within a mystic realm teeming with mechanisms was already quite an achievement!
Though the cultivation of these two individuals was commendable, there was no guarantee that they wouldn’t be tormented by mechanisms, array formations, and the secret realm’s spiritual beasts. Hmph!
Holy Son Miyan raised her head and reinstated her facade of sanctity and haughtiness. She addressed the assembly in a low tone, “Since no one harbors objections, let us prepare to depart.”
“Our initial destination is to assemble at the teleportation array north of North Wangda Forest.”
Holy Son Miyan retrieved a large-scale aerial conveyance spiritual device and gathered everyone.
This aerial conveyance spiritual device somewhat resembled a broadsword. It could comfortably accommodate approximately forty individuals.
With thirty-two academy students and the addition of Holy Son Miyan and a few priests, there were now nearly thirty-nine individuals, rendering the interior of the conveyance spiritual tool quite cramped.
Her Ladyship Qiaoqiao sat in the innermost seat, her expression indifferent. She rested her hands on her knees, impeccably adhering to a standard posture.
As the conveyance spiritual tool was activated, it experienced mild turbulence.
Zhongli Zhiwei glanced about and spotted His Highness the Crown Prince supporting the young crown prince consort’s supple waist. A pang of discomfort coursed through her.
Good grief!
Did this couple need to be so affectionate?
The young crown prince consort maintained proper decorum in her standard seating, so how could she be tossed about due to the conveyance spiritual tool’s bumps? His Highness the Crown Prince remained perennially fixated on her, kindling a storm of jealousy that raged within Zhongli Zhiwei’s chest.
Qiao Mu detected a penetrating gaze trained on her and cast an unhappy upward glance in Zhongli Zhiwei’s direction.
The young stoic’s lips curled into an icy smile.
Zhongli Zhiwei shivered as an unsettling chill swept over her.
Beside Zhongli Zhiwei, Chen Baojia, sensing the tension, promptly extended a stiff smile toward Qiao Mu, then gently tugged on Zhongli Zhiwei’s sleeve.
Inside the conveyance spiritual tool, each occupant was left to their own thoughts. Some covertly observed Qiao Mu and Mo Lian, while others exchanged furtive glances and engaged in hushed conversations.
Nonetheless, the students had successfully embarked on their journey.
Before their departure, Dean Yun beamed at them and affectionately admonished, “Remember, your life is your most precious possession! While treasures may be enticing, your life surpasses all. Do not endanger yourselves for the sake of worldly gains!”
After sitting for approximately five minutes, Her Ladyship Qiaoqiao retrieved an orange from her inner world and tugged at her husband’s sleeve.
Mo Lian smiled reflexively, extending his hand to accept the orange, which he then began peeling with a contented expression.
The young stoic was indeed a genuine food enthusiast
