"So many people." Ning Yue looked at the bustling street in surprise.
"They are here for the event tomorrow, I guess." Yun Lintian thought he could come here to relax, but the number of people was too big. He would need to squeeze through people along the street at this rate.
"Well, since we're here, let's find something to eat and go back later." Yun Lintian stated.
Ning Yue naturally had no objection and followed Yun Lintian closely behind while holding his sleeve.
After walking for a while, Yun Lintian suddenly saw a commotion ahead. When he carefully looked through the crowd, a familiar face appeared in his sight, making his expression turn strange.
At this moment, a little girl in a dirty robe quarreled with a young man clad in the Heavenhold Divine Academy attire. They seemed to haggle each other over food.
"You're a big guy. Why don't you give me this last bowl of noodles?" The little girl said in dissatisfaction.
The young man looked at her in disgust. "I told you to get this money and leave. My senior brother wants to eat this."
The noodle stall uncle hurriedly said. "My lord, if you can wait, you can come back in three hours. I will prepare the ingredients and make another pot."
The uncle was helpless about this. His noodle stall was regarded as the number one stall in the city. It would be sold out every day, no matter how much he prepared.
The little girl clearly came first, and the last bowl of noodles should have belonged to her. However, this young man used his status as an academy student to chase the little girl away.
Although the uncle didn't want to offend the young man, he couldn't stand injustice. Especially when he saw the little girl's pitiful appearance. He even intended to give her for free.
The young man was dissatisfied. "Three hours? Do you think my senior brother can wait that long? Get the money, and I will take this bowl away."
andasnovel.com Yun Lintian's face twitched slightly upon seeing this scene. He broke a cold sweat for the young man. The little girl was precisely the Divine Emperor he met before.
At the same time, he was puzzled by the little girl's actions. She was obviously a dignified Divine Emperor, yet she acted like a beggar. What was her purpose in doing this?
"Brother, isn't that the little sister we met before?" Ning Yue tugged Yun Lintian's sleeve and asked.
"Yeah. It's her. Let's take a look." Yun Lintian nodded slightly and walked toward the little girl.
At this moment, the young man stretched his hand out to grab the noodle bowl, but the little girl stubbornly blocked the way. Seeing this, the young man was angry and channeled his divine energy, intending to push the little girl away.
The noodle stall uncle exclaimed in shock, but it was too late for him to do anything. He could only watch as the young man's palm moved toward the little girl's petite body.
Pa!
Just as everyone thought the girl would be sent flying, Ning Yue suddenly appeared beside her and pulled the little girl away, avoiding the young man's slap.
The young man was surprised and looked at Ning Yue coldly. "Who are you? Why do you want to meddle with my business?"
Ning Yue's movement technique was good, but she was at a lower level than the young man who was a Divine Foundation Realm practitioner. Hence, he wasn't afraid of her at all.
Ning Yue ignored him and looked at the little girl. "Are you okay, little sister?"
The little girl looked at Ning Yue, who was slightly taller than her, with a strange expression. She shook her head and said. "I'm fine. Thank you, big sister."
Yun Lintian looked at the scene helplessly. He didn't want to make a move at all, as he wanted to see how the little girl was going to do. Unexpectedly, Ning Yue took action first. Perhaps she wanted to test her newly gained power.
"This is good as well." He muttered to himself and walked toward the two. He didn't blame Ning Yue because of this, as it was probably her first time taking the initiative to fight. It was good for her to be courageous.
"As a dignified student of the divine academy. Don't you think it's a bit funny for you to haggle with a young girl over a bowl of noodles?" Yun Lintian said with a faint smile.
The little girl looked at Yun Lintian with a mischievous smile. With her Divine Sense, how could she not notice Yun Lintian from the beginning? She put on a show on purpose to see his reaction.
The young man frowned in dissatisfaction. He seized Yun Lintian up and down. "Are you with her?"
Yun Lintian picked up the noodle bowl and threw it at the young man. "Take it and go away."
The young man skillfully caught the bowl and stared at Yun Lintian coldly.
Yun Lintian completely ignored him and said to Ning Yue and the little girl. "Let's go. I'll take you to eat something delicious."
The little girl pouted and reluctantly said. "Fine."
Yun Lintian threw a few Divine Stones to the noodle stall uncle and said. "I'll come back to taste your noodle later."
The uncle quickly replied. "Thank you."
Yun Lintian waved his hand and brought Ning Yue and the little girl away under everyone's disappointing gaze. They didn't expect the good show to end just like that.
The young man was immediately furious as he felt he was being looked down on by Yun Lintian. However, before he could do or say anything, his entire body was enveloped by a cold killing intent, making him unable to move.
The source of the killing intent came from the ordinary-looking middle-aged man in the crowd. If it wasn't because his young miss prevented him from taking action, he would slap this trash into a blood mist by now.
The young man looked left and right briefly before quickly running away.
The middle-aged man didn't follow. He turned to look at Yun Lintian's departing back and said to himself. "What a sharp perception."
Before Yun Lintian appeared, the middle-aged man had already noticed that he had discovered him and seemingly waited to see how he would react. Obviously, Yun Lintian could tell that he came with the little girl.
"No wonder young miss is interested in him." The middle-aged man muttered and quickly followed them.
