528 Frosted Red Maple Leaves, Riders in Black (2/2)

Sangsang's face was slightly red and said, ”Ning Que, your words sound more and more pleasant now.”

Ning Que asked with a smile, ”Why are you not calling me young master?”

Sangsang said, ”You are not my young master when we are talking about love.”

Ning Que muttered, ”That makes sense.”

Sangsang said suddenly, ”But you also like other women.”

Ning Que felt startled, and said, ”Who are they?”

”Her Highness?”

”That was a juvenile sentimentality and a sense of impulse without direction. If you looked deeper, you could probably see that it was all the poor children's fantasy to be with the princess.”

”What about Sister Dewdrop?”

”She is the Headmaster's cup of tea, you must not be so disrespectful to her.”

”But you said you wanted to touch her and rub her.”

”That was about the feeling of touch, about desire.”

”...You mean I don't feel good to the touch?”

”Next, next.”

”What about the Calligraphy Addict?”

”Ah, it is a little bit windy. We might as well return to the room.”

The Big Black Horse, who was taking shelter and doing self-training under the maple trees, had awakened when Ning Que and Sangsang started to talk about certain topics. It listened keenly and stared at them with wide eyes for fear that it would miss one of their conversations, or some of Ning Que's embarrassments.

Looking at Ning Que who was ready to help Sangsang get into the temple, the big black horse felt bored and cursed Ning Que for his brazenness in its heart. Suddenly, it faintly smelled a slight smell coming from the autumn rain and looked up curiously.

Sangsang looked at the gate of the temple in the rain and said: ”Someone is coming.”

Ning Que stood still for a moment, and said suddenly, ”Get on the carriage.”

Their important packages were all in the carriage, so they could be ready to leave quickly without a coachman.

The Big Black Horse's mane was soaked by the autumn rain. It wasn't loose and sticky, but stalked like a sword.

It was irritable at this time.

Because it confirmed that the faint smell he caught earlier in the rain was the smell of blood.

It had never smelled such a heavy yet extremely chilly smell of blood, even on the battlefield.

A hurried sound of horseshoes came from the autumn rain, which should still be at the base of the hill. It was very far away, and it shouldn't be heard. Only Ning Que, Sangsang, and the Big Black Horse could listen to it clearly.

The black carriage pulled out of the Red Lotus Temple.

Ning Que lifted the curtain, and looked down from the mountain.

There were no trees among the blue mountains, but only the wild grass. Since it was in the late autumn, the grass turned yellow and was covered by frost. Plagued by the rain and wind in autumn, the blades began to fall one after another, making the already excellent view clearer.

The autumn rain was doleful but not dense enough to block people's sights.

One could see more than a dozen black riders riding at a high speed following three mountain paths.

The riders on darkish horses were all wearing black taoist robes. They were dressed completely in black, as if the night had come to the world in daytime, which gave it a taste of coldness and seriousness.

These black riders were lightning fast.

The horses' hooves crushed the mud on the road, while the taoist robes collided with the fine rain.

Ning Que looked through the window; he kept silent and knew it was too late to leave.

The big black horse was uneasy, kicking the rain on the ground with irritability. It seemed like it wanted to get out to have a fight at once.

Sangsang lowered her head, coughing gently; the darkish iron bow in her small hands was already assembled.

Ning Que suddenly asked, ”What level?”

Sangsang looked up, holding the big black umbrella in her right hand; she watched the black riders across the window while frowning slightly. It seemed that she could not believe her own Perception State and said, ”All of them are in the Seethrough Realm...”

Then she added, ”Five of them are in Peak of Seethrough Realm, and one of them has reached the peak level.”

Ning Que had a slightly heavy look in his eyes while remaining calm, but he felt somewhat puzzled.
