Huang Wujing could see through the thoughts of the Black Clothed Guard at a glance.
He spoke in a deep voice, "It's best if you don't reveal your cultivation in front of him, and you definitely must not expose my identity. I want to keep him by my side."
"Your Majesty, why?" the Black Clothed Guard asked, puzzled. "Even if you find this mortal interesting and want him to follow you, there's no need for you to hide your identity!"
"Because once he knows your identity, he will beg to follow you. Then, whatever you want him to do, he'll obediently do it," Huang Wujing explained. "What's this? Are you trying to argue with me?"
The furrowed brows of Huang Wujing indicated his displeasure.
"I dare not, Your Majesty," the Black Clothed Guard hastily lowered his head. "It's just that I can't stand seeing that mortal disrespect you. Your Majesty, who you are and who he is, he has no right to be on equal footing with you."
"What do you understand?" Huang Wujing reprimanded in a stern voice. "What I value is the feeling I get from interacting with him."
"Let me warn you once again, you must not expose my identity, and you must not reveal your cultivation in front of him. Although this young man has a good character, he is still just a mortal. What if he becomes frightened?"
"I don't want to encounter someone interesting only to have them become submissive in front of me."
"Very well, understood!" The Black Clothed Guard respectfully lowered his head, refraining from further argument.
"Haha, old friend, sorry for the wait," Yi Feng returned to the table after delivering food to his dog and apologized.
"No need to be polite, brother," Huang Wujing smiled. "By the way, brother, do you have any specific business in coming here?"
"I don't have any particular business. Since it's my first time in Nansha, I thought I'd take a stroll and enjoy the scenery, like a spring outing!" Yi Feng replied with a smile.
"Oh?" Huang Wujing's eyes lit up. "So, brother, we're the same. Why don't we travel together? I happen to know many interesting places nearby that I can show you."
"That would be wonderful," Yi Feng said joyfully.
As an outsider, he felt like a headless fly in Nansha. Now that he had someone to guide him, it was a blessing in disguise!
After having their fill of food and drink, the group finally left the restaurant.
Outside the entrance, Yi Feng's carriage was parked.
Beside the carriage, Lu Benwei and his dog were waiting.
"Who is this?" Huang Wujing looked at Lu Benwei with a hint of confusion in his voice.
"Uh..." Yi Feng scratched his head and came up with an idea. "Just like you, he's another guard I brought along. After all, Nansha is far away, and it's safer to have someone accompany me."
Yi Feng said this because he was afraid of scaring others with Lu Benwei's skeletal appearance.
Remembering that Huang Wujing also had a Black Clothed Guard with him, he made up this explanation.
"Oh, I see," Huang Wujing nodded. Because this person in black robes, like Yi Feng, was just an ordinary mortal without any cultivation, he was merely a guard. There was no need to pay any attention to him.
It was the dog next to him that puzzled Huang Wujing a bit.
However, after looking for a while, I couldn't make any sense of it, so I withdrew my gaze.
However, the black-clothed guard behind him showed a disdainful expression upon hearing Yi Feng's words.
You have an escort just like the master?
Hmph!
Can you even compare?
Leaving aside who the master is and who you are, just based on the escorts, does that short, insignificant thing deserve to be called an escort?
You're just putting on a show, wearing a mask, thinking that dressing in black makes you comparable to him?
However, he dared not reveal these thoughts in front of Huang Wujing.
Following Huang Wujing, they arrived directly at the riverbank.
The scenery here was indeed beautiful. The breeze brushed past, refreshing and cool. Both sides of the river were filled with peach blossoms, and on the stone-paved road, groups of young girls walked by.
There were also various boats floating on the river, with talented men and beautiful women exchanging verses and young couples playing around...
"What a beautiful place!" Yi Feng's mood instantly improved upon seeing this scene.
"How about it, little brother? Are you satisfied?" Huang Wujing smiled.
"Satisfied, satisfied," Yi Feng quickly replied, "Thank you, big brother."
"Let's go, we'll take a boat and have some fun on the river."
Huang Wujing smiled and led Yi Feng towards the shore.
Several small boats were docked by the shore, similar to some of the scenic spots Yi Feng had seen in his past life. All it took was a certain amount of gold coins to rent one.
However, these boats were very small, typically accommodating only two or three people.
Helpless, Yi Feng's group rented two boats.
Yi Feng, Huang Wujing, and the dog boarded the first boat, while the two remaining guards took the other boat.
The two small boats slowly drifted towards the center of the river, and the view from the river was even more delightful.
But the black-clothed guard, looking at Lu Benwei sitting across from him, felt extremely unwilling.
Who was he?
As someone of high status, why should he let this short, inferior commoner sit in the same boat as him?
And why was he just standing there without saying a word?
Trying to appear profound?
He couldn't stand Lu Benwei's appearance, and he wanted to intimidate this short guy and make him cower in fear with his cultivated aura.
However, under Huang Wujing's command, he didn't dare to do so.
But...
He raised an eyebrow slightly.
That didn't prevent him from finding other ways to tease this short guy.
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces.

Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples.
