Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Your Research Is Very In-Depth!

With a heart full of reluctance, Ling Feng still made his way to the Book Collection Pavilion to honor Qin Wanwan’s ”invitation.”

The Heavenly Position Academy’s Book Collection Pavilion was divided into two parts.

The first part held the cultural and literary collections from within the Empire. Naturally, the second part was filled with all sorts of exquisite Martial Techniques, Cultivation Techniques, and Secret Techniques.

Therefore, based on their own ranks, the areas that the students were allowed to enter were limited.

However, relatively speaking, the management of the first part was much more relaxed compared to the second part.

It wasn’t long before Ling Feng arrived at the section reserved for the Yellow Character Disciples to borrow books. Among the crowd, he spotted Qin Wanwan at a glance.

It had to be said that this woman, even when placed in a crowd, could not disguise her beauty and stunning presence.

At the moment, the reading room was sparse with people. After all, the Heavenly Position Academy revered the martial culture and there were but a few who genuinely liked to research the Empire’s culture and knowledge of various domains.

And the Sky White Empire had specially established the ”Imperial College” for the sole purpose of cultivating civil officials.

Qin Wanwan was seated towards the back, flipping through a thick book. Compared to her usual brash and hysteric demeanor, the calm and focused way she read added an intellectual charm to her presence.

Behind her, there were more than a dozen ”beasts” who ostensibly were reading but whose thievish eyes were darting around, seemingly watching something else.

”I’m here,” Ling Feng said, his voice still very cold.

Many Yellow Character Disciples from the other four courtyards looked up and saw Ling Feng approaching their coveted ”Goddess” and could not help but snort softly, thinking, ”Who is this guy, greeting a beauty like that? Isn’t he a bit too full of himself!”

After all, many male students, who thought they had some charm, had already met with rejection from Qin Wanwan.

Unexpectedly, Qin Wanwan actually looked up at Ling Feng, giving him an annoyed glance and frowned, ”What took you so long? I asked you to wait for me, and yet you made me wait for you instead!”

Damn!

The surrounding students felt a whirlwind hit them!

What’s going on?

The aloof Goddess was actually speaking, and from her tone, there was a hint of grievance, a hint of lingering affection?

Just who was this guy?

His cultivation didn’t seem anything special, just at the Early-stage Pulse Condensation!

Some students from the East Courtyard secretly envied him, thinking that being the Chief surely had its perks, as even the belle of their courtyard was so docile and compliant.

”If you have something to say, say it,” Ling Feng frowned and got straight to the point, not wishing to waste too much time here.

”Hmph!” Qin Wanwan, already accustomed to Ling Feng’s icy demeanor, didn’t say much more, just closed her thick book and said with slightly parted red lips, ”This book on the ancient history of the Sky White Sacred Dynasty is beyond my authority to borrow. You are the Chief of the East Courtyard, and your privileges are sufficient. So, I hope you can lend me your Identity Token for a moment so I can complete the borrowing procedure.”

”Is it just for something so trivial?” Ling Feng threw his Identity Token to Qin Wanwan, ”Does this count as a condition, then?”

”Hmph, not at all!”

Qin Wanwan pouted, snatched Ling Feng’s Identity Token, and with the thick book in hand, she strode away.

”You!” Ling Feng’s brow furrowed, and he couldn’t help but feel frantic inside: Ah! This mad woman!!!

Taking a deep breath, Ling Feng tried to calm his emotions and found a corner to sit down.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he saw a familiar figure.

Wasn’t that the only roommate in Tianshu East Courtyard who ”loved to study,” Feng Mo?

Seeing how earnestly Feng Mo was reading, Ling Feng inwardly admired him.

Although Feng Mo’s talent was not considered top-notch in the East Courtyard, his diligence in studying meant that he might well become something like a ”Military Advisor” in the future, which was not a bad prospect at all.

Thinking of this, Ling Feng walked up behind Feng Mo and gently patted his shoulder.

Feng Mo jerked as if electrocuted, shivering all over, then turning his head and seeing it was Ling Feng, he finally relaxed.

Only, his ”thief with a guilty conscience” reaction didn’t seem quite normal!

”So it’s Brother Feen!” Feng Mo exhaled several times, and it seemed like cold sweat even broke out on his forehead.

”What book has got you so engrossed?” Ling Feng casually pulled out a book from Feng Mo’s hands and looked at the cover.

”Imperial Concubines: A Lustful History!”

”Pfft...”

Ling Feng almost spat out a mouthful of blood, randomly flipping it open.

Damn, it even had illustrations!

Ling Feng slapped the very ”substantial” book onto the table and said indifferently, ”Feng Mo, the stuff you study is quite profound, huh!”

”Hm-hmm!” Feng Mo said seriously, ”Literature such as this shouldn’t only be judged by its appearance. We must look beyond the surface to understand the essence. This book tells the story of a woman contending with fate, and I find it quite educational.”

As he spoke, a sense of world-weariness even permeated Feng Mo’s voice, faintly carrying a critical tone.

Damn!

He’d seen shameless, but never this shameless—he was blatantly spouting nonsense!

Ling Feng’s mouth twitched slightly, ”Well, you continue your research, Master Feng. I won’t disturb you.”

”Hehe...” Feng Mo smiled slyly, ”Brother Feen, this will be our little secret, okay...”

”What little secret?”

The two were whispering conspiratorially when suddenly a crisp, pleasant voice came from behind. Of course, it was Qin Wanwan.

Feng Mo shivered and quickly hugged the table, covering up that awesome book ”Imperial Concubines: A Lustful History.”

Ling Feng also felt a bit like a thief being caught, as he went over to change the subject, ”Oh, did you finish borrowing your book? Give me back my Identity Token.”

”Hmph, it’s not like you’ll be missing it!” Qin Wanwan stuffed the Token back into Ling Feng’s hands, ”Here, here, here!”

Ling Feng sweat internally; if Qin Wanwan were to discover that he had been looking at that indescribable book, he might be at risk of ruin and disgrace at any moment!

”Have you eaten yet? Let’s go, let’s go for a meal!”

After saying this, Ling Feng unceremoniously grabbed Qin Wanwan and left the Book Collection Pavilion, staying there was too dangerous!

Feng Mo watched Ling Feng’s diligent effort to ”cover for him,” feeling moved, a glimmer of tears twinkling in his eyes.

This was what true brotherhood was about!

...

Having left the Book Collection Pavilion, Ling Feng let go of Qin Wanwan and saw her bright eyes staring straight at him, unable to help saying, ”What?”

”Strange, you actually took me out for a meal?” Qin Wanwan stared at Ling Feng, interrogating him like a criminal with a frown, ”Spill it, what other ulterior motive do you have?”

”If you don’t want to go, forget it!” Ling Feng waved his hand, glad to be rid of the problem!

”I happen to be hungry, so fine, let’s go!” Qin Wanwan huffed arrogantly with a snort, then quickly headed toward the cafeteria.

Ling Feng shrugged his shoulders, counting the days, and remembered that tonight was also the day to administer acupuncture to Yan Cangtian to suppress the poison in his body, so having a meal to replenish his strength was a good idea.

With that in mind, Ling Feng also quickened his pace and followed suit.
