Chapter 220: Your Research Has Depth!

With a heart full of resignation, Ling Feng made his way to the library to fulfill Qin Wanwan's whims.

The library at Tianwei Academy was divided into two sections.

The first section housed various cultural and literary works within the empire. The second section contained collections of various martial skills, techniques, and secret methods.

Students were only allowed access to areas according to their respective levels.

However, when comparing the first section to the second, the first was much more lenient than the second.

Before long, Ling Feng arrived at the area designated for yellow-tier students to borrow books. In the crowd, he immediately spotted Qin Wanwan.

It had to be said that even amidst the crowd, Qin Wanwan's beauty and allure were undeniable.

At this moment, the reading room was sparsely populated. After all, Tianwei Academy advocated martial prowess, and those genuinely interested in studying imperial culture and various fields of knowledge were few and far between.

Moreover, the Tianbai Empire had specifically established the Imperial Academy for the exclusive training of civil officials.

Qin Wanwan sat in a seat towards the back, flipping through a thick book. In contrast to her usual spirited and feisty demeanor, the sight of her quietly engrossed in reading exuded a newfound intellectual charm.

Behind her, there were a dozen or so rascals who, though ostensibly reading, were darting their mischievous eyes around. It was unknown what their true focus was.

"I'm here." Ling Feng's voice remained cold.

Many yellow-tier students from other courts, upon seeing Ling Feng approaching their admired goddess, couldn't help but snort disdainfully, thinking to themselves: Who does he think he is, greeting a beauty like that? How arrogant!

After all, there had been many male students who thought they had some charm but had been rejected by Qin Wanwan before.

Unexpectedly, Qin Wanwan actually raised her head, glared at Ling Feng, and frowned. "Why did you take so long to come? I asked you to wait for me, but instead, you made me wait for you!"

What in the world!?

The surrounding students felt dizzy for a moment!

What's going on?

That aloof goddess actually spoke, and judging by her tone, sounded somewhat plaintive, and also somewhat affectionate?

Who is this guy exactly?

Looking at his cultivation, he's nothing remarkable. He’s only at the early stages of the Pulse Formation Realm.

Some students from East Court also secretly envied him. Being a chief meant even the beauty of the campus was so obedient.

As he spoke, Feng Mo's voice carried a sense of weariness at the world and also a hint of criticism.

Damn!

I have seen shameless people before, but never someone this shameless. He's spouting nonsense with a straight face!

"Keep studying then. I won't disturb you, Master Feng," Ling Feng said with a slight twitch of his lips.

"Hehe..." Feng Mo smiled faintly. "Brother Feng, this will be our little secret from now on..."

"What little secret?"

The two were whispering to each other when they suddenly heard a clear and pleasant voice behind them, which naturally belonged to Qin Wanwan.

Feng Mo jumped as if startled, quickly hugged the table, and shielded the impressive book, The Emperor's Concubine: A History of Romance, from Qin Wanwan’s eyes.

Ling Feng also felt a bit guilty and approached, changing the subject. "Um, did you borrow the book? Give me back my token of identity."

"Hmph, it's not like I'm keeping it from you!" Qin Wanwan shoved the token into Ling Feng's hand. "Here you go!"

Ling Feng felt cold sweat forming. If Qin Wanwan found out he had been reading such unspeakable books, it might just ruin his reputation!

"Have you eaten yet? Come on, let's go eat!"

Without waiting for a response, Ling Feng grabbed Qin Wanwan and left the library. It's too risky to stay here!

Feng Mo was touched by Ling Feng's effort to cover for him and felt a hint of tears in his eyes.

This is a true friend!

...

Outside the library, Ling Feng released Qin Wanwan and saw her bright eyes fixed on him. Unable to hold back, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's strange. Why did you suddenly invite me to eat?" Qin Wanwan stared at Ling Feng like an interrogator, frowning. "Tell me, what other bad ideas do you have?"

"Forget it if you don't want to go!" Ling Feng waved his hand, relieved to be free.

"I happen to be hungry, so I'll go!" Qin Wanwan huffed with a touch of arrogance and headed towards the cafeteria.

Ling Feng shrugged. It was time for him to give acupuncture to Yan Cangtian tonight to suppress the medicinal toxicity in his body, so a meal to replenish his strength wouldn't hurt.

With that in mind, Ling Feng quickened his pace and followed behind.
