106: Smart people have their own way of communicating
“This Junior Brother, are you new here? Do you need someone to show you around the palace?”
Leng Ningyue's first words upon arriving did not directly ask Wang Feng if he was a transmigrator.
“Senior Sister, for our first meeting, what should one typically do?”
Wang Feng rubbed his fingers, his meaning obvious, causing Leng Ningyue’s expression to darken.
She could only reluctantly take out a storage bag, then fiddled with it for a while before finally handing it to Wang Feng.
“This should be enough, right?”
“Thank you, Senior Sister!”
Wang Feng unceremoniously took the storage bag, cupped his hands to her, and then...
Turned and left.
He was playing hard to get; he absolutely couldn't let himself fall into a passive position.
“Hey! Why are you just taking it and leaving!”
Leng Ningyue grabbed Wang Feng’s sleeve, pulling him to a stop.
“Senior Sister, may I ask if you need anything else?”
Wang Feng pulled his arm back, shaking off Leng Ningyue’s hand.
Is this guy a eunuch? He isn't even moved by a woman like me, who's like a fairy?
Seeing this, Leng Ningyue couldn't help but grumble inwardly.
“Junior Brother is truly impressive, fighting against a group of females alone. Although he was chased around, essentially, he had already achieved a great victory.”
“He is also the first truly male disciple in the palace for countless years. Senior Sister truly admires you.”
“Senior Sister, just say what you want to say directly.”
Wang Feng’s expression darkened. Why was this person speaking in such a 'tea-like' manner, subtly insulting him? He really wanted to slap her to make her sober up.
“Junior Brother, may I borrow a moment to speak?”
Leng Ningyue saw passersby looking at them strangely and could only ask Wang Feng for his opinion first.
“Alright.”
Wang Feng followed Leng Ningyue to her Saintess Hall, which was Leng Ningyue’s exclusive residence as the Saintess.
As soon as Leng Ningyue entered the hall, she couldn't hold back and immediately started: “Two tigers ~ Two tigers ~”
Wang Feng’s mouth twitched fiercely, feeling utterly awkward.
“No, Big Sister, aren’t you embarrassed?”
“Run fast ~ Run fast ~”
Although Wang Feng complained about Leng Ningyue, he still continued her secret code.
Then he found a seat and sat down without ceremony.
And this proved his identity as a transmigrator.
As for why he dared to reveal this identity, he valued Leng Ningyue's status as the Ice Palace Saintess.
To have attained the status of Ice Palace Saintess, he believed Leng Ningyue should be an intelligent person.
Intelligent people have intelligent ways of communicating. If he didn’t reveal his identity, Leng Ningyue would probably immediately drive him away.
Then his idea of getting resources would fall through, and she was also a trump card; if used well, she would definitely be a big winner.
Leng Ningyue’s expression was surprised, and she exclaimed in astonishment: “You really are a transmigrator like me!?”
“Hehe, just kidding. I transmigrated at one year old, tempered my body at two, gathered spirit at three, became invincible in the mortal world at four, discovered this world had cultivators at five, cultivated diligently at six, became an Emperor at seven, manipulated the Ice Empress at eight, and at nine...”
“Stop, stop, are you going to talk endlessly?”
Leng Ningyue quickly told Wang Feng to stop; she had many more questions to ask.
“Wait a moment, you said you manipulated the Ice Empress!?”
“I said I was joking, and you believed it?”
Leng Ningyue was speechless by Wang Feng. She had thought his first joke was just a filler word.
But indeed, at eight years old, how could it be possible? Though in the Cultivation World, it was indeed possible, just extremely rare.
“What’s your transmigration age?”
“Transmigration age?”
Wang Feng was confused. What kind of word was that?
“It means, how long have you been transmigrated until now?”
“Oh~, not much, not much, just about a thousand years or so. I don’t know the exact duration.”
Wang Feng waved his hand, answering the question casually. He really didn't expect her to come up with the term 'transmigration age'.
“Ah?? That long!”
“Then how did you, a Condensation Spirit Realm Ninth Layer, live so long?”
Wang Feng heard this and began to realize that this person’s brain seemed a bit unintelligent. Why did she believe everything he said?
He hesitated and asked, “You... haven’t left the Ice Palace since you transmigrated, have you?”
“Otherwise?”
Leng Ningyue seemed to have changed into a different person, sitting down on a chair by the table.
Then she propped up her cheeks with both hands, pouting her lips, which didn't match her cold temperament at all.
It's over! Wang Feng looked at her like this, and a bad premonition vaguely rose in his heart.
“Have you ever killed anyone?”
Wang Feng threw out another question, which changed Leng Ningyue’s expression.
“Killing people!? Killing people is illegal. Oh, right, this isn't Blue Star...”
Leng Ningyue seemed to suddenly realize, and in an instant, she became somewhat dejected.
She was truly going crazy wanting to return to Blue Star.
Who would want to come to a Cultivation World where one could die at any time, when they could stay in a stable place?
And hearing this, Wang Feng’s bad premonition grew stronger and stronger.
“How many years have you been here?”
“Thirty-eight years, eleven months, thirty days.”
Leng Ningyue answered instantly, then began to talk about how she came to this world.
“Let me tell you, I was hit and killed by a big truck and transmigrated here. I never expected something that only happens in novels would happen to me, boo hoo hoo~”
As she spoke, Leng Ningyue even started crying, crying like a pear blossom bathed in rain, making Wang Feng’s forehead twitch.
But Leng Ningyue seemed oblivious, wiping her tears and continuing to speak.
After all, she had finally met an Old friend, and now she finally had a place to vent all her grievances from these many years.
“The most hateful thing is that the original body’s memories, except for some basic Cultivation World common sense, were not inherited by me.”
“I only knew that when I woke up, I was in this world and had become a fairy. I was happy for quite some time.”
“Until... the moment the Grand Elder discovered something was wrong and searched my spiritual sea, that’s when I realized this was a world of cultivation!”
“Fortunately, my soul seemed to be meant for this body.”
“The Grand Elder found nothing amiss and thought it was because I cultivated too hastily, causing damage to my brain.”
Blah blah blah a lot...
Wang Feng listened silently beside her and finally came to a conclusion.
Leng Ningyue, soul transmigration, didn't inherit all memories, Ice Palace Saintess, 100% soul compatibility, hasn't left the Ice Palace since transmigration.
The most, most, most important point: foolish!
Why say she was foolish? Because this person actually told Wang Feng the entire process of her past and present life.
The only thing she hadn't told Wang Feng was whether she had ever been intimate with a man.
She even told Wang Feng all her trump cards, just because Wang Feng was her Old friend from Blue Star.
It could almost be said that she was completely unguarded against Wang Feng, but Wang Feng also had to guard against her deceiving him.
Wang Feng also confirmed the bad premonition in his heart. Indeed, as soon as he heard her speak, he felt something was off.
Now Wang Feng silently retracted his previous thought: Intelligent people have intelligent ways of communicating.
“So, your current plan is to never leave the Ice Palace, is that right?”
