novelThe Other Ling Pingan
| ← Ch.469 | Ch.471 → |
"It really is him!" Princess Lotus was extremely excited. Her blue eyes were exuberant with joy.
Thus, her attitude immediately became humble.
She even started to choose her words carefully.
"I heard of an ancient Chinese saying, 'Any mountain can be famous with the presence of an immortal and any river can be holy with the presence of a dragon'." She carefully asked, "Young Master's bookstore must be a hall that gathers the secrets of the world and contains countless precious knowledge, right?"
Li An'an listened and was slightly shocked.
Little Ping'an's bookstore?
She had lived in it since she was young, and there didn't seem to be anything special about it.
In other words...
It should be cleaner and quieter, right?
Just as she was about to deny it, she remembered the character that she was going to set up now. Li An'an smiled mysteriously and said, "Princess, you flatter me!"
"A vulgar bookstore is not worth mentioning. The books in it are just ordinary!"
As she said this, the corner of her mouth slightly curled up. She said in a domineering but restrained tone, "Although that's the case..."
"But..."
"Even if an immortal god descends to the mortal world and a true dragon rises from the abyss..."
"If anyone wants to borrow my books... it has to depend on opportunities!"
"The opportunities don't come even for... immortal god? True dragon?"
She held her eyes and said firmly, "Even for those, they have to wait at the door obediently!"
As the Princess Lotus listened, realization slowly boomed in her eyes.
"It's him!" A voice shouted in her heart.
There was no doubt!
It could only be him.
Other than him, who else in this world could be so confident and overbearing?
They didn't even care about immortals and gods?
It must be known that now was the time when the spirit aura was restored and the return of the gods.
Gods did indeed exist, but they were illusory things.
Not only did they exist, but most of them had a close relationship with the modern world.
Many small countries, because they did not have gods, were like meat on the chopping block!
If they received the blessings of the gods, even small countries in Kunlun State could defend themselves.
They could even beat up the surrounding areas!
Just like Egypt in Kunlun State, with the protection of the Cat Goddess, they were now cleaning up the remaining rebels in the territory, and even began to spy on the entire Nile Valley.
This was the role of the gods.
Even if they did not make a move, the side that had the protection of the gods would have an additional trump card. They were already in an invincible position!
Who would dare to easily invade a country that had the protection of the gods?
When the gods were angry, blood would flow. Who would be able to bear this responsibility?
Princess Lotus swallowed her saliva. Her hands could not help but tremble.
"Young Master is right..." She echoed and carefully made her request."I wonder if I have that opportunity?"
After saying that, her heart couldn't help but thump.
Her heart was extremely perturbed.
Li An'an was somewhat confused.
"What's going on with Princess Lotus?" She thought.
"Could it be..." She looked at the princess in front of her.
In her eyes, Princess Lotus of Ceylon was like a student who had met her life mentor. She was very careful and even lowered her body.
She didn't look like a princess. Instead, she looked like a maid waiting for orders.
This made Li An'an a little uneasy.
But on second thought, "The princess is flirting with Ling Ping'an. What does it have to do with me, Li An'an?"
Thus, she boldly continued to pretend to be her own character.
"If Your Highness is willing..." Li An'an pretended to be mysterious and said, "There will naturally be fate!"
Princess Lotus immediately lowered her head."Young Master is right!"
"But..."
"I am stupid. I don't know how to fight for this opportunity."
Ceylon was a small country and did not have much to offer.
The only things that could be offered were the lotus under the pagoda and the transcendent gemstones produced by the transcendent spirit mines.
However, in front of Young Master X, these things did not even have the chance to be looked at.
Li An'an gently rubbed her hands. She tried hard to maintain her aloof image. She slowly looked at the princess in front of her."This so-called fate, isn't everything done by humans?"
"If the princess gets what she wants, of course there will be fate!"
Yes...
As long as she obediently followed little Ping'an back to Jiangcheng City.
Forget about going to the bookstore to read.
Even if she was lying on the bookshelf, no one would care about her!
Princess Lotus listened, but she sighed in her heart.
Then she slowly stood up, pinched her skirt, and gracefully bowed. A submissive look flowed through her blue eyes."If Young Master does not mind, I would like to serve you in bed..."
Li An'an was stunned.
"So simple?"
She felt like she had gone too far.
............
Ling Ping'an held his phone and waited for a long time, but he didn't get an answer from his aunt.
The uneasiness in his heart grew stronger.
"What is aunt doing?"
He was restless.
The worries in his heart were magnified in the uneasiness.
Thus, his gaze slowly changed.
His eyes also slowly became blurry.
The entire room seemed to be in a trance because of this.
"My myopia..." Ling Ping'an looked at the blurry world as if he had been hit by a mosaic."It's back again?"
His eyes were a little sore.
He couldn't help but reach out and rub his eyes.
It would be fine if he didn't rub them, but once he rubbed them, they became dry and itchy.
Moreover, the more he rubbed them, the more itchy they became!
Ling Ping'an was really too uncomfortable, so he could only get off the bed and grope his way to the bathroom.
He held the bathroom sink and followed his memory to grab a towel. Then, he turned on the tap and wet the towel before applying it to his eyes.
After a few minutes, he finally felt a little better.
So, he took the towel away and raised his head again.
"It seems that I am not short-sighted again!" He said.
However, his perspective had also changed because of this.
What exactly was different?
He could not tell.
He just felt that the entire world seemed to be different.
It was as if the light was brighter.
The entire room had also become a little more beautiful.
"Strange!" He scratched his head. He could not understand the current situation.
But what he did not know was.
In the mirror that he could not see.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
In the mirror, there was another him.
This one was talking.
"My aunt is on the seventh floor of the World Exhibition Center..."
"She is pretending to be me!"
In the mirror, he slowly raised his hand.
Under the skin of his arm, the muscles were slowly squirming.
Threads of flesh blossomed like buds, bearing fruit.
Tentacles crawled out from under his skin and circled behind him. In the mirror, countless tentacles bloomed like peacocks flailing their tails.
The mouthparts on the top of the tentacles opened one by one, emitting a terrifying sound that humans could not hear.
But this sound reverberated in the void crevices of space and time.
Roar!
One ancient being after another woke up from the nightmare.
They shivered and curled up together.
They sensed danger.
The danger of being hunted!
As long as they dared to show their heads!
They would be eaten!
In the mirror, surrounded by these tentacles, he said wickedly, "Since my aunt likes it... then let her play!"
Ling Ping'an ignored him.
He turned his head slightly.
For some reason, he suddenly turned his head and looked toward the south of the Monsoon Villa.
He vaguely felt that his aunt was there.
Then, he shook his head."My imagination is running wild again!"
