466: Chapter 476 A Strong Sense of Crisis! Zhu Nanrong Wants It Too!
"No! I am going to find Su Feng and ask him to make things clear!"
Zhu Nanrong's chest heaved violently.
With the addition of Qiao Miaotong and Yu Niaoniao, two experts at the Late Stage of the Great Emperor Realm, the frontline battle situation gained temporary breathing room, and Zhu Nanrong no longer had any thoughts of defending.
Right now, there was only one thought in her mind: She had to go ask Su Feng why he would enter a marriage alliance with a vixen like Qiao Miaotong?!
At this thought, Zhu Nanrong yanked off the communication talisman from her waist, which had been personally refined by Su Feng.
However, when her Divine Sense probed into the talisman and the words reached her lips, she suddenly choked up.
She suddenly realized an awkward problem—in what capacity should she question Su Feng?
Because Su Feng possessed the rare-through-the-ages Pure Yang Sacred Body, and when he expelled the cold poison for her back then in the Winter Abyss, the two of them had also shared intimate physical contact, Zhu Nanrong had long defaulted in her heart that Su Feng was her future Dao Companion.
However, the two of them had never officially clarified this relationship in any public occasion!
Without any official title, to meddle in someone else's marriage alliance, what was this called?
This was called meddling in other people's business!
"Odious! That shameless woman!"
Zhu Nanrong gritted her pearly white teeth in anger. "What kind of ability is it to seduce another person's man?! If you have the guts, fight me one-on-one on the battlefield!"
The more she thought about it, the angrier Zhu Nanrong became. Unable to suppress the soreness in her heart, she finally began injecting her Divine Thought into the communication talisman.
"Su... Su Feng, are you there?"
As soon as the words left her mouth, Zhu Nanrong's breathing hitched.
She wished she could slap herself across the face.
As the dignified Empress of Winter, who was usually as cold and proud as frost, how could her tone become as humble as a pitiful kitten begging for affection the moment she opened her mouth?
If her clansmen saw her looking like this, where would her majesty as an Empress remain?
"What is it, Nanrong?"
Soon, Su Feng's deep, magnetically husky response came from the talisman.
Although the two of them had actually only been apart for a period of time, hearing this familiar voice now made Zhu Nanrong feel as though a very long, long time had passed, and the tip of her nose inexplicably grew somewhat sore.
"Um... I heard..."
Zhu Nanrong's fingers holding the talisman trembled slightly, and she tried her best to make her tone sound calm. "I heard that Luoxia Mountain and Lingshui Pavilion... have formed a marriage alliance with you?"
"Ah, I am not questioning you or anything! I just... hearing this news felt too sudden, I am just confirming it..."
The more Zhu Nanrong spoke, the softer her voice became. She felt that she was utterly hypocritical at this moment. Her heart was clearly empty, and an inexplicable, intense jealousy surged out like a tsunami, impossible to suppress no matter how hard she tried.
She never expected that she, an expert of the Great Emperor Realm who had experienced thousands of life-and-death hardships, would turn into such a timid and insecure person in the face of romance.
On the other end of the communication talisman, there was a sudden silence.
This brief quiet allowed Zhu Nanrong to even clearly hear her own heartbeat sounding like rolling drums.
A moment later, Su Feng's voice came over again: "Mm, I did indeed form a marriage alliance with them. The Great Thousand Star Domain is suffering such a catastrophe, and they are willing to offer their foundations to preserve their clansmen. As the head of the Su Family, I have no reason to refuse."
Hearing this affirmative reply, although she was mentally prepared, a nameless stifled anger still rose from the bottom of Zhu Nanrong's heart.
So as long as one offers their foundation, they can form a marriage alliance? Then didn't I give my entire Winter Abyss to you long ago?!
"The two of them also said..." Zhu Nanrong bit her red lips, a trace of deep unwillingness flashing in the depths of her eyes.
"They broke through to the Late Stage of the Great Emperor Realm through your help."
"Su Feng, could it be... that I cannot?"
On the other end of the talisman, Su Feng, who was closing his eyes to rest, instantly opened them, stunned all over.
That woman Qiao Miaotong... what on earth did she do outside?!
She had only been out for a little while, yet she directly provoked the cold and aloof Zhu Nanrong into proactively throwing herself at him?!
She was not just a talent; she was damn well a Genius!
Su Feng took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the corners of his mouth that were curving up wildly, and slowly said:
"Nanrong, that method of Breakthrough... does not suit you."
Su Feng was actually speaking the truth here.
For someone like Qiao Miaotong, matters like Dual Cultivation were fine as long as the interests were applied in the right place.
But for Zhu Nanrong, who was conservative by nature, the psychological gap was indeed too large, and carrying it out forcefully might lead to resistance.
However, this truth fell into Zhu Nanrong's ears and completely changed its flavor.
Does not suit me?!
Hearing this, Zhu Nanrong became anxious instantly, her competitive spirit instantly exploding!
"Without trying it, how can you be sure it doesn't suit me?!"
Zhu Nanrong protested loudly into the talisman: "In terms of Dao Heart and perseverance, in what way am I inferior to that enchantress Qiao Miaotong? I am coming to find you right now! I believe that for this kind of test to acquire the Opportunity, I will definitely do better than them!"
Su Feng's expression on this end of the communication became colorful.
Regarding Zhu Nanrong, he had originally thought it would take a long time to melt that iceberg little by little.
He hadn't expected that Qiao Miaotong would just go out, brag a few words casually, and completely ignite her desire to win and her sense of crisis.
Was this the legendary inner harem involution?!
"Nanrong! Calm down first and listen to me!"
Su Feng forcefully restrained his smile and continued playing hard to get: "You are different from them! That method of breaking through realms requires a price, and you even have to lay down your dignity as an empress!"
Zhu Nanrong had already lost her reason, angered by Qiao Miaotong's earlier "petty person tasting success" expression, so how could she still listen to these warnings?
"Su Feng! You don't need to persuade me anymore!"
Zhu Nanrong's gaze was incomparably firm.
"I know that good fortune of instantly breaking through barriers must require enduring pain that ordinary people can hardly imagine!"
"But I will definitely be able to withstand the test! No matter how difficult it is, no matter how much sweat I have to shed, I will definitely persist to the end and never cry out once!"
Zhu Nanrong still naively believed that Su Feng held some kind of Opportunity in his hands, which required a baptism of suffering through all kinds of torment to succeed.
But as long as Qiao Miaotong and Yu Niaoniao could "endure" through it, there was no reason she, Zhu Nanrong, couldn't endure it!
Su Feng opened his mouth, listening to the resolute tone from the other end of the talisman, and finally let out a slow sigh, his tone full of helplessness.
"Alright... Since your mind is made up. Stay right there, I'll come pick you up."
Putting down the talisman, Su Feng rubbed his temples, a hint of a smile flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"Sweating is definitely going to happen... As for whether you cry out or not, that won't be up to you anymore."
