Chapter 314: Chapter 237 Fifth Star Gate_2

When she lifted her tail, a satisfied expression filled her face. No matter when she wrapped it up, it was heavier than she imagined, and when she treated Hui Yue like he was a sack of potatoes, her puzzled look quickly turned into a smile and surprise.

Xu Yue had long given up trying to gain freedom without harming Sha Yun, so he allowed the Snake Woman to carry him, especially since he could feel how carefully she handled him in her own cautious way.

"What did you just say?" The manager’s face darkened upon hearing Hui Yue’s earlier statement. "The restroom has already been destroyed." Hui Yue repeated, his expression showing an almost careless indifference typically unseen in managers. Before the manager could truly become angry, Hui Yue flicked his fingers, and a black coin became visible between them.

Waving the coin toward the manager, Hui Yue said coldly, "I believe this covers the damages," and then turned and left, leaving behind a stunned manager.

The coin in his hand was black, with a square hole in the center. It bore no engravings and lacked any metal to offset the black iron. Instead, a pure surge of energy radiated from it, causing the manager’s hand to feel slightly warm as he clutched the precious treasure.

"Such a wealthy young lord," the manager muttered to himself. Trying to think of which family could produce such an affluent young man, he was utterly bewildered. While Huili was famed throughout Liluo City, his reputation spread mainly among the upper echelons of society. Few commoners or average shopkeepers knew of him directly—they had only heard whispers of a rumored expert connected to a student from the Royal Art Academy, a student who had briefly visited this city nearly a year ago. How could someone as simple as this manager have guessed?

Xu Yue felt a bit annoyed as he realized that, although he found himself liking Sha Yun, the reason wasn’t merely due to who she was—it was because she was someone he felt he could trust. This thought made him frown slightly. Did this mean he didn’t genuinely care about her as a friend? Or was it simply because she had submitted to him, so he couldn’t see her in any other way?

As Hui Yue pondered this, he suddenly noticed someone approaching him. His earlier doubts were replaced as he greeted Yan Xiaobao and the Rong twins with a smile, followed by the market guards. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

This particular market was owned by the Deng Family. Whenever high-ranking individuals walked through its premises, guards typically accompanied them for safety and service. This custom was commonplace in many places. However, Hui Yue received no such treatment because the Deng Family highly valued his privacy, and those who had encountered him chose not to reveal his status to authorities.

"We’ll be leaving soon," Rong Xing said with a smile, observing how Rong Ming dashed toward Sha Yun, trying to help her choose bracelets. Rong Ming’s face was filled with excitement, his cheeks flushed with healthy rosiness that reminded Hui Yue of the time he proposed marriage.

Those memories made Hui Yue wince whenever he thought of them, but now he couldn’t help feeling a little sorry for Rong Ming. His first love had turned into a boy, and then into his next magical beast.

Later that day, Hui Yue once again borrowed a magical horse from the City Lord’s estate, leaving behind Liluo City’s towering walls as he and the Rong twins set off toward the Academy.

The distance was such that they could have walked it quickly, but today they took their time. Sha Yun turned her head left and right, looking around in awe as they traveled leisurely. The mix of cultivated lands and barren terrain was strikingly similar to what they had seen during their journey from the Magic Forest to Liluo City. However, that time, the group had rushed to make it to the city gates before they closed. Today was the first day she could slowly take in the sights and gain a deeper understanding of how people outside the forest lived.

Riding beside Sha Yun was Rong Ming, who was busy narrating and explaining various sights like rice paddies, water wheels, and small villages. While the brother was occupied with Sha Yun, Rong Xing and Hui Yue finally had time to discuss their future plans.

The National Royal Art Academy competition was about to begin, and Rong Xing intended to participate. Having fought for her life in the Magic Forest for three weeks, she had already grasped the value of battling others to gain insight into her own abilities.

"Hui Yue!" A voice called out from behind, interrupting the youths’ conversation and causing them to turn and see who had arrived. Behind them was a Qilin—a magnificent steed radiating an air of arrogance. It was clear this Qilin came from the wild, unlike the domesticated beasts raised by the Rong twins.

Riding the Qilin was Wang Julong, with Wang Jingshen and several other young members of the Wang Family trailing behind her.

"I’ll catch up with the Academy," Wang Julong said to the group trailing behind her. They didn’t argue but sighed heavily, urging their mounts to increase their speed and race toward the Academy.

Seeing a new addition to the group, Sha Yun immediately focused her attention on the newcomer. But once their eyes met, it felt as if sparks ignited between them.

Like a flash, Sha Yun appeared beside Yan Xiaobao, her tail clattering loudly. Her lips hissed as her eyes shimmered silver, piercing as she gazed at Wang Julong.

Seeing the shifting shadow, Wang Julong let out a disdainful snort. Though Sha Yun was fast, Wang Julong did not doubt her Thunder Lightning skills would once again prevail against this strange beast.

Wang Julong was no fool. It wasn’t hard to see that the silver markings in this female beast’s gaze represented a magical beast’s oath of service. She was clearly under the control of one of three individuals, and the way she protected Hui Yue made it glaringly obvious to Wang Julong that this Snake Woman belonged to him.

"Why would you tame a bug?" Wang Julong sneered, her eyes filled with contempt as she looked at the Snake Woman whom she had derisively called a worm.

At this point, all magical beasts stopped moving and gathered together. Hui Yue was about to speak up in defense of Sha Yun, but before he had the chance, the Snake Woman let out a massive roar from her throat. She began whipping her tail against the ground, clearly preparing to demonstrate dominance between the two. Instinctively, Sha Yun disliked Wang Julong, and the feelings were mutual.

"Do you think a beast like you has the right to show off in front of me?" Wang Julong sneered as she dismounted her Qilin, ordering it to stay put and wait.

Although she suspected Yan Xiaobao’s friendliness toward this impudent creature, the truth was she was holding back her fury as Sha Yun continued to roar and hiss furiously.

Hui Yue watched the scene unfolding before him with a skeptical gaze, shaking his head before finally letting out a laugh.

"If you two want to duel, I won’t stop you," he said lightly, chuckling. "But neither of you is allowed to seriously harm the other. Sha Yun, Wang Julong is my friend. Likewise, Sha Yun is under my protection, so I can’t let her suffer grave injuries."

Upon hearing this, both participants felt angry but complied with the rules he laid out, nodding solemnly. For them, defeating their rival wasn’t the priority—proving their strength was.

"This will be interesting," Lan Feng said from Qi Mountain Cave. "I’d love to see how powerful Wang Julong truly is."

Hui Yue stepped aside, following Sha Yun and Wang Julong. The path they currently traveled was lined on both sides with villages and agricultural fields. Golden corn grew in abundance on either side, reflecting the summer sunlight, creating the illusion of two glimmering golden seas stretching as far as the eye could see.

As Hui Ya turned to the two women prepared for battle, her face showed a deep sigh of exasperation.

"We need to find a barren plot of land," Hui Yue said bluntly. Without waiting for a response, he steered his horse down the dusty road to select an appropriate location.
