Quick Transmigration: The Most Popular Girl: Even an Ordinary Girl Can Have Her Spring

Chapter 279 The Hehuan Sect Master Who Snatches People Everywhere in the Cultivation World (21)

Mi Luo cried with restraint, clenching his teeth to keep from making a sound, but large tears fell down, turning into crystal-clear pearls in the water.

He was already extremely handsome, and now, with his eyes red from crying, he looked even more beautiful, making people want him to cry even harder.

Le Yan tilted her head slightly, dismissing this somewhat perverse thought.

She sighed, "Why are you crying?"

He reached out and gently stroked around Mi Luo's eyes, as if to wipe away his tears.

Mi Luo bit her lip, trying her best to suppress her sobs: "You want to kick me out, can't I even cry?"

No one else was sent away, only him, only he was to be sent out of the Hehuan Sect, why?

Why?

Mi Luo grabbed Le Yan's hand and pressed it tightly against his face, his eyes meeting hers with a pair of seemingly expressive eyes. "Could you... please not send me away?"

His expression was sorrowful, filled with anxiety at the prospect of rejection, as if he would be devastated and heartbroken if Le Yan truly rejected him.

Le Yan said helplessly, "I'm not kicking you out, I'm taking you home."

Mi Luo wouldn't listen, "You just want to get rid of me!"

"You didn't drive anyone else away, so why can't I stay?"

He was referring to Sheng An and the others. He knew that those people were still staying in the Hehuan Sect and could see her from time to time.

Only he, being a minor, could not transform his fishtail into legs and could not go to her on his own. He could only wait for her to occasionally remember him and come to see him.

Mi Luo was very sad. He wondered why his coming-of-age ceremony was not yet over.

He also longed to have human legs so he could stay close to her, instead of being confined to this spirit pool, anxiously wondering every day if she would come to see him.

Le Yan was taken aback by his sorrowful expression. "But you are a merman, you don't live in the deep sea, it must have an impact on you, right?"

The implication is that Mi Luo is different from others, at least in terms of race.

Mi Luo pursed her lips. "It has no effect!"

He said firmly, "I'm almost an adult. Whether I live in the deep sea or not makes no difference to me."

"Please don't send me away, okay?"

Fearing that Le Yan would still insist on driving him away, Mi Luo quickly scooped up the pearls from the spirit pool with his other free hand and presented them to her like a treasure.

"Look, I can cry, and my tears will turn into pearls. I'll use them to bribe you. Will you let me stay?"

Mi Luo looked extremely anxious. If this still didn't work, he didn't know what to do.

He had no power to resist Leyan's decision, so he could only try every possible method in the hope that she would soften her heart towards him.

Seeing the fear on his face, and seeing him holding the pearl as if he were offering her everything, Le Yan readily agreed, "Alright, since you don't want to go back to the West Sea, then stay for now."

"When you want to go back someday, I'll send you away."

Finally getting her to relent, Mi Luo's face lit up with ecstasy. His red eyes were filled with excitement as he looked at Le Yan, somewhat at a loss for words, "Th-thank you, I won't go back, I-I want to stay by your side."

As he finished speaking, he lowered his head somewhat shyly, his fish tail, hidden underwater, swaying uncontrollably, silently expressing the turmoil in his heart.

Le Yan saw everything but said nothing.

She simply withdrew her hand, and while Mi Luo was slightly taken aback, she asked, "You just said you're almost an adult? Around when? Do you need anything to help you?"

Mi Luo snapped out of her reverie and shook her head, replying, "I don't need any assistance. I'll be an adult in three months."

"Our Merfolk race, once we reach adulthood, can disregard the constraints of water, transforming our fish tails into legs, and freely roam the world."

And also...

Every time they reach adulthood, the merfolk face a choice.

That will change their lives.

Mi Luo's eyes flickered, and she tentatively looked at Le Yan, asking softly, "Immortal Venerable, do you prefer men or women?"

Le Yan was taken aback by his question. After realizing what he meant, she raised an eyebrow slightly and replied, "I like them all."

"Huh?" Mi Luo was somewhat stunned, clearly not expecting such an answer.

He stammered, "You...you like them all?"

This put him in a bit of a difficult position.

emmm ... ...

Le Yan looked at him curiously, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Mi Luo shook his head repeatedly, already having made up his mind. He smiled gently, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Le Yan, "No, I was just thinking of giving the Immortal Venerable a surprise."

Le Yan pressed, "What surprise?"

Mi Luo smiled mysteriously, "A surprise isn't a surprise if you tell it out loud."

He reached out and hooked his hand around Leyan's little finger, pleading with a touch of lingering affection, "Immortal Venerable, will you be with me on the day I come of age?"

Worried that Leyan might disagree, he weakly added, "I'm afraid."

Le Yan nodded, "Okay, I'll protect you then."

It's just a small matter, why not agree?

she thinks.

When they returned to the Floating Life Palace, it was quiet and deserted, as if no one was there.

Le Yan stood still for a moment, remaining outside the hall without making a move.

Her intuition told her that something was wrong.

It doesn't seem dangerous, but it also doesn't seem very safe.

Le Yan's hair stood on end, and she remained motionless in the Floating Life Palace for a long time.

With a slight movement of her wrist, spiritual energy subtly swirled around her fingertips, invisible yet carrying a sharp killing intent.

If anything happens inside the palace, she is not someone to be trifled with.

She never imagined that she would be bound and have her consciousness completely sealed as soon as she pushed open the palace door and before she could even see who the tall figure inside was.

It was as if countless chains extended from her sea of ​​consciousness, tightly binding her divine sense.

She can still perceive the outside world, but because she cannot open her eyes and cannot break free from the constraints, she can only perceive a part of it.

She knew that someone had picked her up and taken her away from the Hehuan Sect.

She had no idea who did it or where they were taking her.

So Leyan began to think and investigate.

In this vast cultivation world, there seem to be very few people who could remain undiscovered without alerting the Second Elder and Ah Zhao, who were all Mahayana cultivators, and without being discovered by the mighty Dragon God who was soaking in the Cliff Pool.

But who it is remains to be discussed.

Le Yan carefully listed several names, all of which were among the most powerful figures in the cultivation world.

For example, there's Changheng Sword Master, the first person to transcend tribulation; Xi Tingsi, the male protagonist who was half a step into tribulation; and the Demon Lord from the Demon Clan, and so on.

Among this group of people, Le Yan racked her brains but still couldn't figure out who she had offended.

She remembered that, apart from the beginning of her life in this world, which was at an auction held by the Nine Heavens Chamber of Commerce, she had always stayed at the Hehuan Sect and been a serious homebody!

She shouldn't have any chance of offending those big shots, right?

Le Yan was having a headache from thinking about it, and when she realized she couldn't come up with an answer, she decided to give up.

Rather than making things difficult for yourself, you might as well sit and wait for your doom.

Since the other party didn't seem to want to kill her, she would eventually find out who they were.

So—lie down and go to sleep!
