Chapter 21 Meng Yiran
The well-developed and convenient transportation makes Soto a brightly lit and bustling city at night, even more so than during the day.
Throughout the entire Kingdom of Barak, only Soto City boasts such a magnificent scene.
In addition, its proximity to the Star Dou Great Forest is a natural advantage that makes many academy forces choose to rest here when they go to hunt for spirit rings.
And those colleges will also relax their control over students here, allowing them to have some fun.
After all, for these young boys and girls, returning from their first hunt in the great forest inevitably leads to several days of nightmares.
At this moment, inside a tavern.
"Oh, Yiran, it's okay, it's just a little bit. Didn't the teacher say we can do whatever we want this time?"
In a corner, several boys and girls dressed in school uniforms sat around a table. One of them looked at the beautiful figure sitting at the head of the table and pleaded.
"Yes, Sister Yiran. Besides, this is all barley wine, so it won't make you drunk."
"Sister Yiran, please, Vice Captain, please!"
"I really want to try it and see what it tastes like."
However, no matter what they said, the girl sitting in the first seat remained unmoved.
The girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with neat and tidy short blue-gray hair, skin as smooth as cream, a straight nose, and beautiful blue-gray eyes. She was spirited yet had a unique charm.
The simple school uniform accentuated her shapely figure, paired with her long, beautiful legs, making one want to conquer her.
"If I say no, then no."
The girl, known as Sister Yiran, frowned and shook her head, her beautiful eyes sweeping around the room, her tone slightly stern.
"We'll be entering the Star Dou Great Forest in a few days, so now is not the time to let loose. If it weren't for my teacher's instructions, I wouldn't have allowed you to come here today."
Upon hearing this, the expectant young men and women fell into an awkward silence.
Seemingly realizing she had spoken too harshly, the girl softened her expression, "Although you can't drink alcohol, you can order whatever you like – drinks and meat are on me."
"I'm going to wash my hands, you guys order."
The girl got up and left.
After a brief silence, a boy spoke up indignantly.
"What's with the arrogance? Not allowing this or that, does being a vice-captain really make you think you're something special?"
His words seemed to resonate with the crowd, and several voices immediately rang out.
"Yes, yes, if it weren't for his kind grandparents, who would care about her?"
"I heard that this time, the peerless dragon snake took someone to hunt for spirit rings, but the person didn't want to go. They said they had to take care of the academy's team members. Tsk tsk tsk, what a show-off."
"Exactly! If you really want to help, why not let the Peerless Dragon and Snake help us?"
I've disliked her for a long time.
The chatter grew louder and louder as they talked, becoming more and more excited and venting their jealousy and resentment.
Why are you so talented?
Why do you have grandparents who are very famous in mainland China?
Given your current state, why do you still try to control us?
The group was engrossed in their conversation, completely unaware that the girl was standing not far away, watching them.
Those beautiful blue-gray eyes were filled with disappointment and confusion.
In an instant, Meng Yiran recalled her grandparents' words: she should stay by their side instead of joining some academy.
As the granddaughter of a peerless dragon and snake, she was born not to belong to this social class.
But she stubbornly refused, because she felt that she was no different from everyone else.
Because of her grandparents' status, she received tremendous attention upon entering the academy. However, Meng Yiran never used the privileges granted to her by the principal. In order to get along with her classmates, she often shared her cultivation resources with others.
This time, she even begged her grandparents to help her classmate hunt for a spirit ring.
Even after doing so much, is that all I am in their eyes?
"So, she should actually drop out of school; she always acts superior."
A boy was still talking when he noticed that the students around him had all fallen silent, staring at him with fear in their eyes.
Gumbling—
His heart skipped a beat, and he stiffly turned his head, only to see a tall, slender girl with short, blue-gray hair standing behind him.
"Sister Yiran, it's me, it's us."
The boy was so scared that he stammered an explanation, and the others were also trembling with fear.
We were caught red-handed talking badly behind their backs. With the other party's power, they could expel them from school with just one word!
The thought of the consequences filled them with despair.
However, the storm they had anticipated did not come. Meng Yiran merely glanced at them, picked up the bottle of ale on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.
Then she turned and left, leaving them only with her delicate and beautiful figure.
"this"
The group looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.
"Wait, this bottle of wine!!!"
One of the boys suddenly realized something, and his face turned terrified.
"What's wrong with the alcohol?"
Another person asked, puzzled.
"I...I put something in it. If...if people only drink one cup, it will make them make strange noises."
He swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice.
"How about drinking one bottle?"
Everyone sensed something was wrong and quickly asked.
"I...I don't know either! I just wanted to embarrass her. The old man who sold the medicine didn't say anything, he just said not to let her finish the whole bottle!!"
The boy, his voice trembling with tears, cried out, "It's all over! The Dragon Serpent will definitely kill us!!"
Done! !
Upon hearing this, the group of people turned ashen-faced, as if they had already foreseen the inevitable end.
"Hmm"
As Meng Yiran pushed open the door and stepped out of the tavern, her steps faltered, and she suddenly felt a little dizzy.
"Strange, what's going on?"
The slightly cool night breeze helped her wake up a little. The girl shook her head and felt her cheeks starting to burn, and a strange heat spreading through her body.
"Is this alcohol that strong?"
Meng Yiran parted her cherry lips slightly, exhaled a breath of hot air, and her pretty face was flushed with an alluring blush.
For some reason, she suddenly had an urge to take off her clothes.
I should have known better than to do that.
The girl felt a pang of regret for drinking the entire bottle of ale in her anger.
Sensing the growing strange looks from those around her, Meng Yiran gritted her teeth and quickly left the tavern.
My grandparents live in the city. As long as I send a signal, they can arrive in less than three minutes.
But the girl's sense of shame made her reluctant to let her elders see her in her current state.
"It's just alcohol, I should be able to handle it myself, so I won't trouble Grandpa and Grandma."
She felt her legs getting weaker and her body getting hotter and hotter, a burning sensation that seemed to come from the depths of her soul, making her want to jump into ice water.
We need to find a place where there's no one around.
Meng Yiran, panting, struggled forward, leaning against the wall.
She was completely unaware that several pairs of eyes were watching her from behind.
