Chapter 556: Chapter 362: Then Let’s Kill

So, when Ling Xiao emerged from the main entrance of the girls’ dormitory with two young women, everyone outside was completely stunned.

Silence.

Absolute silence.

So quiet you could hear a pin drop.

It was so quiet that everyone could hear their own hearts beating. No one dared to make the slightest sound, and even their breathing grew faint. It was as if an immense pressure advanced with each of their footsteps... STEP... STEP...

The pressure, following the young man’s silhouette, settled over everyone, pressing down into the depths of their souls.

Then, as if a pot had boiled over, the crowd gathered at the dormitory entrance erupted.

’Damn it, who is that?’

’How did he get the two most beautiful girls in Nia Academy to walk out with him, one on each arm? Heavens, are our eyes playing tricks on us? Or has the world gone mad?’

Every student capable of entering Nia Academy was proud. Who among them would ever readily admit they were inferior to another?

For ninety-nine percent of the people in this world, the hidden aristocratic families and the Mortal World had no interaction whatsoever.

Nobles still held power, the rich still had money... As for being wary of the hidden families and their sects, only those at the true pinnacle of secular power would even consider it.

Otherwise, even the Ling Family in its day had never bothered to think about the hidden families. Their primary concern was, rather, how to topple the wretched Wulan Clan!

Therefore, while many students here at Nia Academy had heard of the hidden families, very few had any real concept of what they were.

Besides, this was just about pursuing beautiful girls.

’Where the hell did this asshole come from?’

This question hung in everyone’s mind. As for the handsome young man holding a bouquet of scarlet Fire Flame Flowers, he was so mortified by the surrounding stares that he wished the ground would open up and swallow him.

However, the subsequent rage nearly burned away all his sanity, making him wish he could immediately order the two super-powered experts of the Sword Emperor Realm at his side to tear that damned man with the two beauties to pieces!

But... this was Nia Academy. Even if he came from a hidden family, he knew better than anyone who protected this place!

It was a super-family; a single Elder-level expert from the Gongsun Family could easily annihilate his entire clan. So, he didn’t dare go too far. Still, the cold, venomous look in his eyes was impossible to conceal.

To his surprise, however, he could clearly feel that the onlookers, almost all of them, were on his side. He was taken aback for a moment before he understood why.

To the students of Nia Academy, all the beautiful girls were the academy’s precious resources. They could compete for them internally, even compete fiercely, but that was an internal affair.

But now, a complete stranger had monopolized two of them all to himself. Very few students who made it to the academy had low emotional intelligence; how could they fail to see the bliss on the faces of two of Nia Academy’s most beautiful women, or the endless love in the glances they occasionally shot at the young man?

And so, they were united against a common enemy.

Song Mingyue reluctantly let go of Ling Xiao’s arm and walked over to the young man holding the Fire Flame Flowers. This time, she didn’t face him with her usual frosty expression and stern glare. On the contrary, Song Mingyue’s face held a faint smile... and a hint of shyness!

Many in the crowd couldn’t help but gulp. ’Who would have thought that Song Mingyue, that ice-cold woman, could actually smile? It’s like seeing a ghost!’

’Turns out she’s even more beautiful when she smiles!’

At that moment, this same thought rose in the minds of countless people.

"Wang Yu, please stop pestering me. My husband is here to get me, and I’ll be leaving in a couple of days. I’m sorry if I hurt you in the past," Song Mingyue said with a gentle expression.

Wang Yu, still holding the fiery red Fire Flame Flowers, was left completely dumbfounded. He had been clinging to a sliver of hope. ’Maybe that young man is Ming Yue’s brother? How else could it be possible? Two women of such peerless, nation-toppling beauty... with a single man? Heavens, who is he? The young master of a super-family?’

On top of that, Song Mingyue had greeted him with a smile, completely contrary to her usual self. This had ignited a blazing fire in Wang Yu’s heart. ’My perseverance has paid off! I finally saw her smile at me!’

He had considered every possibility, but he never imagined Song Mingyue would say something like that to him. Her words completely choked off the speech he had just prepared. Moreover, from the sounds of it, that handsome young man was her husband!

Ah!

Wang Yu felt as if his brain was about to explode. It was buzzing loudly.

’Calm down! I have to stay calm! Especially at a time like this, I can’t lose the bearing of a scion from a great family! I’m a young and promising Sword Sect expert! My future is bright, my prospects are limitless! I’m someone who has a chance to ascend to the Holy Sanctuary...’

But the more he tried to calm down, the more fiercely the anger in Wang Yu’s heart blazed. For his entire life, he had been the apple of his family’s eye. He had lived a life of luxury—eating the best food, using the best things, and attending the best school! No one had ever dared to compete with him for anything!
