Chapter 117 Ningbing, who loves to overthink
Ningbing: I'm sorry for being born a dragon.
Finally, under Ling Yue's strange gaze, Ning Bing's expression kept changing. The two of them stood in the earth elemental power elevator that could rise and move left and right, and arrived at the entrance of the training camp.
As soon as the two came out, they saw Yuan Gang running out anxiously.
"Ling Yue, where did you run off to?! And this one... uh?" Yuan Gang, who had been looking anxious, changed his expression instantly upon seeing Ning Bing's attire.
"Damn! I didn't expect you to be so wild! I was worried about you for nothing." Seeing the beautiful red-haired woman still wearing Ling Yue's clothes, Yuan Gang's gaze towards Ling Yue changed slightly. He hadn't expected this kid to have this kind of taste. Then, without giving Ling Yue time to explain, he continued:
"I just sensed the presence of a [medium], and with your sudden disappearance, I thought you'd run into some danger again, but I never expected..."
Yuan Gang's gaze shifted back and forth between Ling Yue and Ning Bing, his meaning being quite clear.
Seeing that Yuan Gang finally stopped speaking, Ling Yue spoke slowly and deliberately, and with one sentence, Yuan Gang was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
"I just had a fight with the main body of the babbling."
"What?!" Sure enough, Yuan Gang immediately opened his mouth in shock, wondering if he had misheard.
“I said I fought with the main body of the babbling, then the [medium] team came and scared the babbling away. In the end, I even chatted with their captain for a while.”
Ling Yue briefly summarized the previous chapters, his face expressionless, as if these things were just ordinary occurrences in his life.
In fact, Ling Yue's inner thoughts are completely different from his outward appearance: I would give myself 101 points for this, and I'll keep the last point for my own pride!
"Then this one..." Yuan Gang looked at Ning Bing, who was standing to the side, with a questioning gaze. However, before he could finish speaking, he saw that the Five Spirit Lock on Ning Bing's snow-white wrist was almost identical in appearance to the one on Ling Yue's wrist.
Yuan Gang instinctively pointed at Ling Yue and said, "You? You shared your abilities with her??"
Upon hearing Yuan Gang's words, Ling Yue's smiling face instantly darkened.
"I just felt like you were always after my Five Spirits Lock!"
Yuan Gang: Oh no, we've been exposed!
In the end, Ling Yue told the truth, "Her name is Ning Bing, and she is the Flame Vein Earth Dragon from the foot of Jinnan Mountain. Don't worry, I have already controlled her with the Five Element Locks."
"Oh, oh??" Yuan Gang didn't notice anything wrong at first, but a second later he realized:
"What?! She's the Fiery Earth Dragon?! And her name is Ningbing?! What idiot came up with that name?"
It's worth noting that Yuan Gang's primary focus wasn't on how the Five Elemental Lock could turn the Flame Vein Earth Dragon into a human, but rather on Ning Bing's name.
Upon hearing this, Ling Yue's expression darkened completely, while Ning Bing behind him covered her mouth and chuckled, giving Yuan Gang a thumbs up.
Ningbing was clearly very happy. After all, it was rare for someone to understand her difficulties. This man was practically her soulmate.
"What, you don't like the name I chose?" Ling Yue looked at Yuan Gang with a threatening gaze, as if he would attack if Yuan Gang said 'no' again.
"Do not--"
"Hmm?" Ling Yue's fire spirit power continued to condense in his hand as he pondered where to place Yuan Gang's ashes.
"No—I mean, it sounds absolutely wonderful! The name Ningbing is such a perfect match for the Flame Vein Earth Dragon!"
For Ningbing, Yuan Gang's swift change of heart was like a bolt from the blue; she never expected that this confidant, whom she hadn't even had a chance to acknowledge, would betray her so quickly.
At this moment, Ling Yue suddenly turned to look at Ning Bing, who looked dejected, and asked, "Ning Bing, are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied, so satisfied, boohoo." Ningbing whimpered pitifully, but she dared not object due to Ling Yue's tyrannical power. It was simply too torturous for the dragon.
Afterwards, Yuan Gang asked Ling Yue what exactly was going on with the delirium. Ling Yue honestly explained and then took Ning Bing back to his luxurious dormitory.
Of course, Ling Yue didn't say anything extra. He only said that he sensed the aura of the whispers underground and went in for Ning Bing's safety. These words moved Ning Bing to tears. Her opinion about Ling Yue's random name disappeared instantly, and she looked at Ling Yue with eyes full of gratitude.
'As expected, Master fought that slut for her sake. How touching!'
At night, Ling Yue looked at his two-meter-wide bed and Ning Bing in the room, lost in thought...
"You sleep on the floor, I'll sleep on the bed." Finally, Ling Yue's calm voice rang out.
In fact, Ling Yue wasn't pondering who should sleep on the bed and who should sleep on the floor; he was hesitating between letting Ning Bing sleep on the floor or the sofa. In the end, Ling Yue chose to let her sleep on the floor.
Icebound: ?_?
Ningbing suddenly pouted her lips, her usually cold voice turning into a sweet one: "But Master, I've never slept in this bed before, I want to sleep in a bed too..." As she spoke, Ningbing pointed her finger as if by magic.
"Fine, since you've been so obedient, you can sleep on the sofa. Don't even think about the bed; I don't like having anyone next to me."
In the end, Ling Yue hardened his heart and let Ning Bing sleep on the sofa, while he slept alone on the soft bed. And since it was summer, Ling Yue turned on the air conditioner to keep cool, even inconsiderately moving the outdoor unit into the living room...
Ningbing stared at the suddenly appearing, heating air conditioner unit and began to think: Her master must be afraid that she and he had different habits, so he made her sleep on the sofa, and the thing in front of her that was heating up was proof of that!
Ningbing wiped away the sweat that had trickled down her face because she had just transformed into human form but her strength hadn't kept pace. "Waaah, Master is so thoughtful! I'm so happy!"
That night, Ling Yue, who was sleeping soundly on the Simmons mattress in the room, slept very well, while Ning Bing, who was sleeping on the sofa in the living room, couldn't sleep at all.
The next day, Ling Yue got up very early because it was the day the Night Watchmen swore their oath and left the training camp.
"Holy crap!" Ling Yue opened the bedroom door and looked at the sofa in the living room. The sofa was almost completely soaked with sweat, and Ning Bing was squatting on the ground with a wronged and scared look on her face.
