NOVEL NEXT Chapter 309: Sister Is Not Interested in You!
As Ji Ning Xuan spoke, she took a step forward, ready to rush up and check on the Netherworld Blood Worms herself!
But Ye Fan moved swiftly, intending to advance with Ji Ning Xuan.
"Little brother, you're not listening," Ji Ning Xuan frowned at Ye Fan and chuckled, "I already said it's dangerous here, I told you to leave, why aren't you obeying? Brother, there's a time and place to act cool in front of a lady, but I'm already taken, so you're wasting your time!"
"Even if you act bravely, I won't be interested in you!"
While speaking, Ji Ning Xuan couldn't help but let out a long sigh in her heart.
As the Miss of the Prime Minister Manor, Heaven's Pampered Girl, and the direct disciple of the Sage Master of the Jade Pool Sacred Land, not to mention the future Empress!
Such a distinguished status was something countless girls throughout Great Xia probably envied!
And as the Miss Prime Minister, Ji Ning Xuan was fully aware of the responsibilities she carried, always behaving and doing what she was supposed to do. This included her arranged marriage with the Emperor, both having grown up together, making them childhood sweethearts. Indeed, she did not dislike him, but he was not the one to make Ji Ning Xuan's heart flutter either.
But since the family arranged it that way, Ji Ning Xuan instinctively thought it was her duty to follow through!
Ji Ning Xuan was actually patient enough to explain so much to a stranger?
The two grey-robed elders beside Ji Ning Xuan exchanged glances, their brows furrowing slightly.
The Miss was not like this in front of others before!

The usual men, the Miss would not even spare a glance.
"You think too much, I…" Ye Fan was about to explain when Ji Ning Xuan interrupted him and said to the two bodyguards beside her, "You two, keep an eye on him here, don't let him get close! It's best to take him away from here!"
Ji Ning Xuan gave Ye Fan a deep look, not even sure herself why she was so talkative tonight.
It was an incredibly strange feeling. Ye Fan was indeed very handsome and radiant, and there was a peculiar magic power about him that drew Ji Ning Xuan to want to get closer, to want to say a few more words!
No, that's not right!
I am the chosen Empress, next month is my grand wedding, how could I have other thoughts?
With these thoughts in mind, Ji Ning Xuan immediately cast aside her inner distractions and, with a slight push of her ankle, dashed toward the temple with great speed!
At the temple, the commotion was growing louder and louder.
Countless Netherworld Blood Worms had crawled out from underground, some flying in the air, and they seemed to form a defensive formation.
"You…" Ye Fan was a bit helpless. This silly girl, charging like this, wasn't it just delivering herself to the enemy?
But before Ye Fan could speak, the two bodyguards beside him coldly said, "Kid, if you want to stay here, just keep your mouth shut and don't make a sound! Don't make it hard for us, or we will have to forcefully remove you!"
The bodyguards were relatively polite to Ye Fan; they could tell that the Miss had a somewhat special attitude toward him.
Ye Fan felt a bit helpless!
With his current strength as an Eighth Rank Martial Emperor, all the bodyguards combined were not his match. But Ye Fan also wanted to observe and see what tactics these Netherworld Blood Worms had.
Whoosh!
On Ji Ning Xuan's side, in the blink of an eye, the first wave of people was less than ten meters away from the temple.
"Audacious monsters, daring to cause chaos in Great Xia, come out and meet your death!" As Ji Ning Xuan shouted, she quickly drew out the two battle sabers from her waist, sending two ferocious Qi Forces toward the Netherworld Blood Worms inside the temple.
Ye Fan's eyes narrowed sharply!
This woman, she's got something.
The Qi Forces surging from the two battle sabers faintly took on the shape of a green snake... with signs of dragon transformation.
Clearly, she had been guided by a high-level master!
The key point is, this young beauty, probably not even a year older than me, yet the Martial Arts Qi unleashed by her two battle sabers was actually at the peak of the Martial Venerable Realm!
Are Martial Venerables of today really so devalued?
Five years ago, Ye Fan, at the age of fifteen, stepped into the Grandmaster Realm and was acclaimed as the number one monstrous talent of Great Xia... But as Ye Fan progressively improved, he now realized his previous insights were just too limited. The further he went, the higher he climbed, the more he discovered that there were too many hidden masters and experts in this world.
It was only because he hadn't reached this level before that he hadn't seen them!
Boom! Boom!
The two battle sabers emitted an intense Qi Force blast, easily shattering the dilapidated three-story temple in front of them, causing it to collapse!
"Hee hee!"
There seemed to be a sound of teeth grinding, and at the same time, a whining noise came from beneath the temple.
Whizz!
The instant the temple building collapsed and exploded, a huge dark shadow burst out, also instantly exploding!
Countless Netherworld Blood Worms, the size of soccer balls, began to make whining noises, scurrying everywhere.
Under the impact of the powerful Qi Force, a large number of black Netherworld Blood Worm carcasses had already fallen to the ground, some directly blown apart, others cleaved in two.
The remaining scurrying Netherworld Blood Worms, after confirming Ji Ningxuan's location, retreated several meters back as a whole, hovering in the air with some trepidation.
"Hmph! Netherworld Blood Worms, are just so-so!" Ji Ningxuan, having succeeded with one move, became somewhat complacent and lightly yelled, "One slash can reap so many Netherworld Blood Worms, everyone join in, these beasts will soon be wiped out!"
Ji Ningxuan signaled her bodyguards and then prepared to strike again!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Suddenly, the Netherworld Blood Worms three feet away exposed their abdomens and, in the next instant, collectively spat out thick yellow poisonous smoke, assaulting Ji Ningxuan and her people.
The speed was so fast, it could match that of a Martial Venerable Realm expert.
Some weeds and trees that were touched by the smoke instantaneously withered, turned pitch black, and then crumbled into dust that dispersed with the wind.
Even the stones on the ground shattered instantly upon contact with the poison smoke!
This indicated just how potent the poisonous smoke was!
"Miss, be careful!"
Seeing the poison smoke about to envelop Ji Ningxuan, the several bodyguards next to her didn't hesitate to flash in front of her, activating their powerful Martial Arts Qi to block the spread of the poison smoke.
The two grey-robed old men beside Ji Ningxuan also took action!
The powerful strength at the Martial Emperor level was displayed, and the Qi Force surged in the air, creating visible ripples. Tangible Gang Qi blocked most of the poison smoke!
"Not good! This poison smoke can corrode Martial Arts Qi, everyone be careful!" The two grey-robed old men soon realized something was wrong!
The poison smoke of the Netherworld Blood Worms could not only corrode plants but also invade and spread along Martial Arts Qi, penetrating into the body!
This was terrifying!
"Ahh!"
The two Grandmasters in front of them didn't have time to react as their Martial Arts Qi was corroded and their bodies tainted by the poison. Their bodies rapidly disintegrated... In the blink of an eye, two Grandmasters became a pool of blood...
The power of the Netherworld Blood Worms' poison smoke was terrifying to such an extent!
"Retreat!" Ji Ningxuan quickly moved back as her expression also began to grow serious!
It seems that these Netherworld Blood Worms are not as easy to deal with as I had imagined...
