Glamorous Journey Of The Female Protagonist - Chapter 248

“Master….”

Xiao Heng almost whined but soon stopped himself. His actions could have granted him even worse punishments.

In the end, he just bowed to his Master and after giving a final glance at the girl, he walked away from there.

However, the Master kept standing there in silence as he watched the girl.

To others, the girl appeared scared and nervous in her current situation. Not because she actually was scared but rather because that’s what everyone wanted to believe.

But unlike others, he could see the twinkle in her eyes. The confidence and calmness that was present in her even though she was surrounded by hundreds of dangerous beasts.

As the man stood on the high terrace at the edge of the little cliff that showed the beautiful view of the ocean, the setting sun, and soft breeze gave his already ethereal appearance another boost.

His sharp jawline and dark obsidian eyes gave him a strong and powerful appearance that matched his position and title perfectly.

While he was busy in observing the girl and her next move, Li Ming had no idea that she was being stalked by a particular person.

“Aaah! Why so many of you are here? I can only deal with one at a time and if necessary then maybe five to seven. But look at you all, being totally shameless. Huh!” Li Ming said with a scoff before she settled down on a small rock.

“What’s so special about this smell that it can lure so many of you here? Will I need to become a beast like you to know the answer? Or maybe I can use it on Snowy or Mallow to make them answer this question!”

She kept muttering on her own while observing the different races of spirit beasts that had gathered around her.

It was a surprising thing that not a single one of them had taken the initiative to attack her yet.

It was more like they were waiting for something.

Li Ming took out a huge basket from her space. The basket was filled with grilled chicken that held stored spiritual qi inside them.

“Since it’s our very first meeting, consider this as my gift. You all will owe me a favor for feeding you all such delicious food. Since you can’t pay me with money, don’t think that I’ll let you all enjoy free food that has taken a lot of my hard work.”

She kept muttering while pointing at the groups of beasts around her while preparing a spell that would distribute the food to the beasts at the same time.

Li Ming was completely oblivious that her cuteness had succeeded in bringing an almost unnoticeable smile on the lips of the man who had been observing her actions all this time.

The smile only helped in increasing his charisma and beauty. It was almost impossible for anyone to make him show emotions other than indifference and coldness.

However, Li Ming even succeeded in making him smile even though it was for a few mere seconds.

If Xiao Heng would have seen his Master smiling just now, he would even have forgotten how to breathe in shock.

Li Ming watched in silence as the beasts around her hurriedly gulped down the chicken pieces.

Soon enough they were looking at her with hopeful eyes as they waited for more food.

“Nope! Don’t give me those puppy eyes. I’m not giving you more. It’s already late evening now, I should be leaving this forest.” Li Ming said as she stood up and dusted her dress.

Just that moment, a little raccoon-like baby beast walked out of the group and wrapped its body around her feet.

A smile bloomed on her face as the little baby rubbed its head against her ankle. Its cute way of showing affection made her heart filled with warmth.

She crouched down and rubbed its head softly before planting a sift kiss on its forehead.

“Be good. When the next time we meet each other, I want to see a more powerful and better version of yourself. Alright?” She said as she smiled softly.

The little baby nodded its head before turning around to return to its group.

Li Ming gave them all a soft polite nod before disappearing from the forest. Just as she left one after the other, each of the spirit beasts started breaking through their current cultivation levels to reach the next one.

They all felt gratitude towards Li Ming in their hearts for the beautiful and amazing gift that she had given them.

In all this, the preparation that Wu Ying and her team did to stop Li Ming from fleeing away from the forest went completely useless.

They really underestimated their opponent. How could they never thought that she could always teleport away, especially when everyone knew that she used teleportation to pass her first exam?

***

“Sister Wu, you don’t have to worry. There’s no way that little girl can make out of the forest unscathed. And if she somehow succeeded in failing our first plan, then we also have our second plan.”

Wu Ying and her group were already back inside their Sect grounds as they whispered about their plans.

They all walked towards the three elders who were sitting under the biggest pavilion of the Medical Sect while playing ‘Go’.

“Your disciples greet the Elders!”

The group chorused as they greeted the three elders.

“You all did a nice job. You all can go and receive your spirit points from the Study Hall.” One of the elders said as he kept his attention on the board that was set up on the table.

“Thank you Elders for your generosity.” The group again chorused as they passed each other quick excited glances.

“Your elders are indeed generous…!”

The sudden cold and powerful words disturbed the calm and exciting environment of the pavilion.

The three elders immediately stood up from their seats as they watched the man slowly walking towards them.

He was the last person they all expected to see. Moreover, the presence of that person in their medical sect was definitely not good news.

“Se……uhh-Lotus Pavilion Master, these mere humans greet you. It’s been quite a bit of time since we last get to see the Pavilion Master. We never knew that you will be coming out today.” One of the Elders hurriedly said as he smiled at the man.

The rest of the two elders also followed the suit of their friend and greeted the man.

While Wu Ying and her group immediately kneeled down on the floor to greet the man with the utmost respect.

Only two people in the entire Guixian Island held the status and power that could make ninety-five percent of the Island’s population kneel down on the ground to greet them.

The first one was undoubtedly the Ruler of the Island and the head of the Academy, the Supreme Immortal – Wen Guiying.

And the second person was none other than the Lotus Pavilion Master, the Sect Leader of the Array Sect.

It was known throughout the mortal realm that the Lotus Pavilion Master was actually a royal from the Heaven Realm, but very few people were aware of his true identity and his relations with the Heaven Realm.

Nonetheless, he had earned this respect not only because of his high status but also because of his actions and contributions to the Academy.

He held the most powers in his hands after the Supreme Immortal. These two people, Supreme Immortal and Lotus Pavilion Master, together formed the most formidable and powerful team of leaders in the entire Immortal World.

The only other team that came anywhere near these two was the team of Ruoshan and Hei Long. However, since the Demon realm was not really in any shape to compete with the Guixian academy, the Demon Princes couldn’t snatch away the title.

“Sect Leader Lu, how come you decided to visit our lowly Medical sect today out of nowhere?”

Suddenly another person appeared there in the pavilion and asked the question while bowing her head to greet the man.

“Madam Bao, it will be a good thing if you can keep an eye on your sect and what’s going on in there.” Sect Leader Lu said in an indifferent tone as he did not bother to either reply to her question or return the greetings.

“This- Sect Leader Lu, did something happened? If my disciples have somehow offended you or your sect in any way then don’t worry, I’ll make sure to punish them.” Madam Bao immediately replied. Her tone and eyes both were serious as she looked at the great man in front of her.

“Since you say so then I’ll let you interrogate these people here to find out exactly what they are up to. I don’t like meddling in such dirty plans but I also won’t sit back and watch others attacking my disciples.” Sect Leader Lu said in a cold tone that made everyone shiver in fear.

They were not prepared to handle this formidable Immortal and his anger!
