Chapter 555: Chapter 142 Change of Heart (Vote for monthly tickets!)

Inside the room.

When Jiang Ning pushed open the door, he saw Xiao Emei’s somewhat indecent attire.

One of her creamy shoulders was exposed, and a pair of white legs extended from beneath the long robe, gleaming white in the flickering candlelight.

The wide sleeves also made Xiao Emei’s hands appear very delicate.

Clearly, she was wearing nothing but a long robe over her entire body.

This half-concealed, alluring style of dress clearly showed that Xiao Emei understood men.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xiao Emei tugged at the collar, deliberately covering the cleavage at her chest.

She had already made up her mind just now.

Based on her limited knowledge, any god that was reincarnated once dominated as a great deity.

These deities chose to reincarnate as humans to escape the confines of their divine forms and certain restrictions.

Who in the entire Dongling County could compare to such an existence?

Having realized this, Xiao Emei calmly accepted her current situation.

In her view, this might even be an opportunity.

At Water Moon Sword Palace, the highest she could ever reach would be to catch up to the current Xiao Qiushui; becoming a Grandmaster was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

But following a reincarnated god with boundless potential, the future was immeasurable.

The next moment.

Xiao Emei’s expression instantly froze, her eyes bewildered.

Because she saw not only Jiang Ning entering the room but also a green-dressed young girl following behind him.

Embarrassed by the presence of a third party, Xiao Emei quickly pulled her collar tighter, covering her exposed shoulders.

The pale, reflective legs also retracted into the long robe.

"Little Lv, take her to rest," Jiang Ning said, "and give her a set of clothes!"

"Yes!" Hearing Jiang Ning’s words, Lv Yi was puzzled, but she responded regardless.

A moment later.

Xiao Emei was taken out by Lv Yi.

The door was closed again.

Jiang Ning scanned the room.

The most damaged part was the pit in front of his bed.

During his recent explosion of punching power.

Although Xiao Emei had not been killed by his move, the wooden floor and the ground could not withstand the destructive force, immediately forming a pit.

The damage to the wooden planks underfoot was even more severe, and they had carbonized.

But the extent of the damage in the room was under control and did not spread to other areas.

After a quick glance, Jiang Ning went to bed to sleep.

...

The next day.

Cloud Inn.

Bai Luoyu stepped out of his room and glanced next door.

"Has Xiao Emei not returned yet?"

Then his gaze shifted toward the direction where Jiangning Mansion was located.

"Let’s go take a look!" The thought rose in his mind.

He then walked down to the first floor of the inn.

As he exited the main door of the inn,

He immediately saw Xiao Emei approaching from afar.

Unlike the white clothes she usually favored, she was wearing a set of green garments this time.

Seeing Xiao Emei, Bai Luoyu’s eyes showed a hint of surprise.

He couldn’t help but take a second look at her attire, especially at the bun atop Xiao Emei’s head.

Because he remembered, every time he had seen Xiao Emei before, she had her hair down like a waterfall.

This indicated that Xiao Emei liked to wear her hair down, but now it was neatly tied up on her head.

This was the first time he’d seen it, and his gaze lingered for a moment.

More questions arose in his mind.

"Miss Xiao, where have you been?" After Xiao Emei approached, Bai Luoyu greeted her with a smile, opening his folding fan.

"Just took a casual stroll and grabbed some breakfast along the way!" Xiao Emei stopped and responded.

"Miss Xiao indeed has the leisure for elegance!" Bai Luoyu chose not to expose her, despite having seen her climbing out of the window the night before, clearly heading for Jiang Ning.

Moreover, there had been no sound of Xiao Emei returning throughout the night, so how could he believe her words.

But Bai Luoyun was still filled with a bit of curiosity.

After pondering for a moment without any clue, Bai Luoyu thought of Jiang Ning and thus did not dwell on it any further.

"Miss Xiao, I was thinking of paying another visit to Jiang Ning’s mansion, would you like to join?"

Hearing the name Jiang Ning, Xiao Emei’s eyes flickered with an unidentifiable look.

The events of the previous night had left deep impressions on her, and she had been reflecting on them all night.

The events of that night had been too shocking.

The next moment.

She nodded, "Yes, but I need to go back to my room to freshen up and change clothes. Would Master Bai mind waiting for a moment?"

"No hurry!" Bai Luoyu gently waived his folding fan, "I have nothing particular to do, so waiting a bit is no trouble."

...

Shortly after.

Xiao Emei returned to her room.

She went to her bedside, turned out several pills, and found the Healing Medicine she needed, then swallowed one.

The pill entered her body, she sat cross-legged on the bed, and began the healing process.

Her encounter the previous night had left severe internal injuries.

There was hidden damage to her organs and intestines.

All over her limbs and body, there were both big and small hidden injuries.

Her internal veins and arteries were in a mess.

This was even with the protection of Inner Breath; without it, the severity of the injuries would have been unimaginable.

But even so, the internal injuries were quite severe; after a night of circulating Inner Breath to heal, the injuries had only stabilized but had not improved much.

At this moment.

As she was healing with the exercise of her power, the pill she had just ingested quickly dissolved in her body, and a vast Medicinal Power began to permeate every part of her.

Half an incense stick later.

Knock knock knock—

The door was knocked upon.

"Guest, your hot water is ready!" Came the voice of a rough-voiced old lady.

Hearing this, Xiao Emei opened her eyes, glanced at the door, and with a wave of her hand and a sweep of Inner Breath, the door latch fell.
