My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 943 - 941: Hao Shuai’s Instigation

"Going to the Fire Domain?"

Hao Shuai let out a cold laugh, suddenly lifting his head. With a somewhat sinister gaze, he said, "Don’t blame me for not warning you. If Chen Tianlong makes a trip to the Ice Hall, he can take over the North City’s army for his own use. He has the Commander’s Seal for the forty thousand strong army of the North City. If he’s allowed to leave the city, you know what the consequences will be....."

"Hiss~"

Upon hearing Hao Shuai’s words, Lin Kaifeng was evidently a bit worried. Although Chen Tianlong seemed friendly with him on the surface, it was only because, under the pretext of protection, Chen Tianlong reluctantly agreed to work for him. However, now this guy seems to be beyond even Fang Dali’s match and also holds military power. The Ice Hall Master is also his friend. If Chen Tianlong really wanted to rebel, East City would be done for.

Being naturally suspicious, Lin Kaifeng couldn’t ignore these facts.

"I still believe in Chen Tianlong. He shouldn’t have any designs on East City." Lin Kaifeng recalled Chen Tianlong’s character, and how he once saved them from dire straits. Such loyalty is not something everyone possesses.

"I know him better than you do. Chen Tianlong is best at fooling people. Don’t let your eyes be deceived by everything he does. You know what kind of person he is better than I do. Even the three elders of the Fang Family bowed to him, let alone East City." Hao Shuai continued to press, knowing that East City’s army is the only force that can deal with Chen Tianlong.

Using the army to eliminate Chen Tianlong is Hao Shuai’s current best thought.

"Alright, you go back first. Let me think it over. I still believe Chen Tianlong isn’t that kind of person." Lin Kaifeng’s suspicious nature erupted again. Though he said he trusted Chen Tianlong, deep down he was very anxious. Chen Tianlong’s strength was rising rapidly, to the point where even he couldn’t handle it.

Moreover, the key point is that, evidently, Chen Tianlong holds the military power of the North City, and the Ice Hall is also on his side. If he wanted to destroy East City, it would be an easy task. If Chen Tianlong really went to the Fire Domain and played a trick, leaving the city under that pretense and then returning with an army to attack, wouldn’t they be doomed?

Previously, he hadn’t come to attack, as Lin Kaifeng thought, because of that girl Lin Wushuang.

In recent days, he finally realized that Chen Tianlong was very fond of Lin Wushuang, even to the point of being deeply in love. It was not impossible for him to be so attentive for a girl.

After Hao Shuai left, Lin Kaifeng paced back and forth in the room. His decision would affect the friendship between him and Chen Tianlong. Once executed, there would be no turning back.....

The next morning, Chen Tianlong drove with Lin Wushuang, preparing to leave the city and head to the Fire Domain.

However, just at the entrance, Wu Mengting was waiting with a bag. She was Chen Tianlong’s girlfriend, willing to die with him, but she couldn’t bear to see him risk his life for another woman while she remained powerless.

"Mengting, you are..."

"Chen Tianlong, let me go with you. No matter how dangerous, I hope to always be by your side, accompanying you." Wu Mengting became exceptionally serious, neither soft nor weak, but unusually determined.

Chen Tianlong took a deep breath, realizing he had been hasty in his actions. Wu Mengting was his fiancée, yet he was taking the young lady to the Fire Domain without regard for life or death. Who wouldn’t misunderstand? Even Young Master Ye would probably be confused.

"Alright then, get in the car." Chen Tianlong nodded. Protecting one is protection; protecting two is also protection. Simply, he didn’t overthink it; come what may, he would deal with it.

Wu Mengting smiled sweetly, climbing into the car, and then sat in the passenger seat.

Seeing Wu Mengting’s slightly flushed face, as if she had done something wrong, Chen Tianlong knew the girl was embarrassed. She was being a little cheeky.

"Mengting, I can take you, but you must behave and not wander around." Chen Tianlong instructed.

Wu Mengting nodded. How dare she disobey? What if Chen Tianlong decided not to let her go with him later?

Seeing this, Chen Tianlong smiled with satisfaction, restarted the engine, and set off again. But just as they hadn’t gone far, a shout came from outside: "Tianlong bro, wait for me, I want to go too."

Upon hearing this, Chen Tianlong looked in the rearview mirror and was rendered speechless. It was Lu Xiaoyu, the big-breasted girl, running towards them. Her chest heaved dramatically as she sprinted, causing Chen Tianlong a nosebleed.

In no time, Lu Xiaoyu reached the car, knocking on the window, and shouted, "Tianlong bro, I’m here, I want to go too, to take care of Wushuang."

"Oh."

Chen Tianlong didn’t know how to refuse with any other words. The personalities of these girls were well-known to him. If they considered something dangerous, they’d be content creating a fuss over it.

Unfortunately, they were stubborn and hardheaded.

"Get in!"

Chen Tianlong simply didn’t resist anymore and allowed Lu Xiaoyu into the car. Otherwise, this quirky girl might come up with some other way to trouble him.

To prevent others from following, Chen Tianlong smartened up this time. He directly started the car and stepped on the gas, speeding off. Nearly hitting Lu Xiaoyu, causing her to hold her head and yell, "Stupid Chen Tianlong, didn’t even give a warning, made me hit my head. Knew I shouldn’t have followed!"

"...."

Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting were both speechless. Lu Xiaoyu truly had no qualms about saying anything, flaunting being Chen Tianlong’s little wife even with his legitimate girlfriend present.

"Cough, cough, Xiaoyu, sit tight, we’re leaving the city." Chen Tianlong hurriedly diverted the topic, worried Wu Mengting might feel awkward.

"Oh, okay."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoyu quickly settled down, holding onto the still-unconscious Lin Wushuang.

The car drove steadily towards the border of East City. Now it was evidently not as chaotic as before, with the Fire Domain people having dispersed after two days, and East City and the Fire Domain’s junction returning to its usual peace. Many people began setting up stalls, making the area lively again.

Reaching the city gate, Chen Tianlong prepared to greet the guarding soldiers, only to find the gate closed.

"Chen Tianlong, I think something’s off. Why did they close the gate when they saw us coming?" Wu Mengting, keenly observant, quickly sensed something amiss.

Clearly, Chen Tianlong felt the same.

"Xiaoyu, Mengting, both of you stay in the car, don’t get out. I’ll go check things out," instructed Chen Tianlong, and he stepped out, heading for the gate.

Under the city gate, two rows of city guards stood, about forty of them, each holding a gun. It was quite unusual; in Ice City, guns were seldom used as it went against the Cultivator Association’s regulations.

Yet here they were, unusually prepared. What was the intent?

"Excuse me, brother, why is the gate closed? We plan to head out," Chen Tianlong didn’t reveal his identity. If these people were specifically arranged by Lin Kaifeng, they would already know who he was.

"The City Lord said, recently there’s been some conflict with the Fire Domain, no one is allowed in or out." A man in his thirties, rather arrogantly, replied.

He was just a small captain and knew nothing of Chen Tianlong’s reputation. Lin Kaifeng instructed firmly not to let this license plate out of the city, so he could only concoct this excuse.
