Chapter 771: He’s Into You! (2/2)

“No,” Nie Tian answered, looking very calm.

The flame of hope reignited in the eyes of the Bliss Mountain Sect disciples as soon as they heard this.

Jiang Feng gasped. “Then what are you...”

Nie Tian didn’t answer him right away.

Instead, he glanced around, and realized that the Bliss Mountain Sect disciples hadn’t touched a single blade of grass in their surroundings. Everything remained the way it had been.

He figured that he would demand something from these people from the Bliss Mountain Sect, yet he hadn’t thought of what to demand yet.

He pondered the matter in silence for a while before his eyes suddenly landed on Mu Biqiong and he said with a smile, “I’ll reverse the grand spell formation later. Then, the restrictions in the layer of mixed energies that wreaths this continent will be lifted, and you’ll be able to sail away in this golden starship. I’ll allow you to leave, but you’ll have to leave your Holy Daughter here.”

“Our Holy Daughter?!” Jiang Feng went blank, fixing Mu Biqiong with a confused look.

Mu Biqiong, however, looked surprisingly calm as she said, “Alright, I’ll stay as long as you let them go.”

“Why do you want our Holy Daughter to stay, Nie Tian?” Jiang Feng asked, frowning.

The other Bliss Mountain Sect Qi warriors also looked secretly furious, though none of them dared to say a word.

“Perhaps I’ll visit the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries and have a good talk with your sect in the near future,” Nie Tian said in a meaningful fashion.

“Talk?” Jiang Feng pondered Nie Tian’s intentions. “Little Qiong’s beauty is known throughout the entire Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries. Could it be that he’s after Little Qiong’s unearthly good looks? That must be it! He’s at the right age. It seems that the man is a lecher! I should have thought of it long ago, considering the way he treated Yin Yanan and Qiao Yunxi!”

With these thoughts in mind, not only did Jiang Feng not get angry, but he even got a bit excited.

“Little Qiong is more beautiful than either of those girls. Plus, Little Qiong is very smart and knows how to use her beauty. If she takes the initiative, this green hand will surely throw himself at her feet!

“He’s from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace and the owner of this blessed land. His future will be very promising!

“If Little Qiong is to win him over and become his wife, then the Bliss Mountain Sect will be able to cling to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, this invincible colossus!”

A train of thoughts rapidly flashed across Jiang Feng’s mind, a smile slowly appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Fine! We’ll let Little Qiong stay here with you!” Jiang Feng said, not sounding reluctant at all.

Nie Tian smiled. “Good. Besides that, I’d like for you to keep the fact that I’ve killed those people from the Thousandsword Mountain Sect a secret.”

Jiang Feng glanced around at his sect members, and said to Nie Tian with a solemn tone, “Don’t you worry about that. All these survivors are old members with tight lips. After our return, we’ll tell people that we never saw Xing Beichen or people from the Thousandsword Mountain Sect.

“This is such a vast region, and outsiders came as well. Xing Beichen could have died anywhere.”

With an approving look in his eyes, Nie Tian nodded and said, “I like talking to smart men like you. Alright, it’s about time your Holy Daughter came with me.”

“Wait!” After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Feng asked with an embarrassed expression, “Could I have a few words with Little Qiong in private?”

“Sure, I’ll be over there waiting for you.” With these words, Nie Tian steered the Star Boat away from the ancient golden starship.

After watching the Star Boat fly away, Jiang Feng took a deep breath and said to Mu Biqiong, delight and excitement filling his face, “Kiddo, I’m afraid that guy has his eyes on you!”

A furious look appeared in Mu Biqiong’s eyes as she asked, “Is he not keeping me as his prisoner and a hostage?”

Jiang Feng shook his head. “I don’t think so. You must have noticed yourself that he’s been taking good care of Qiao Yunxi from the Divine Flame Sect and Yin Yanan from the Beast-controlling Sect. The way I see it, the reason why the Divine Flame Sect was able to cling to him was mostly because of Qiao Yunxi! Hahaha, but that girl is green and inexperienced. How can she compete with you?

“Little Qiong, whether our sect will be able to win the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s favor and rise to a whole new level will depend on you.”

The fury in Mu Biqiong’s eyes grew even stronger as she spat, “You want me to cater to his pleasure?”

“You’ve got to understand that this is a good chance for you, kiddo!” Jiang Feng tried hard to persuade her. “He’s from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, and I’m afraid the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace attaches great importance to him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been acknowledged by this palace! If you can marry him, your future achievements will no longer be limited to the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries!”

“Yin Yanan and Qiao Yunxi are not enough, and he still wants me?!” Mu Biqiong said with an icy expression. “Men like him are so disgusting!”

“Don’t act on impulse here!” Jiang Feng said, frowning. “This is for your own good!”

“I’ll never take the initiative to approach him!” Mu Biqiong said with great determination.

After hearing Jiang Feng’s words, both Yao Zhilan and Tian Ziping realized the opportunities that lay behind this, and thus joined him in an attempt to persuade her.

However, Mu Biqiong still shook her head and refused to listen to them.

Finally, Jiang Feng was at his wits’ end. He let out a sigh and said, “How about this: you won’t have to take the initiative to approach him, but don’t ever offend him. Consider this a favor to our sect. Okay?”

“Okay, I’ll try,” Mu Biqiong said reluctantly.

Jiang Feng waved at her. “Now go. He’s waiting for you.”
