Chapter 732 Saying no is the same as saying yes
Xu Ning was slightly puzzled by the attitude the young master was displaying.
Just now, while confronting Navelette, Xu Ning felt a faint call coming from the Dust Concealment Gourd.
The source of the call was clear: it was the water-based divine eye that the young master had given him.
The Eye of God was tossed into the Dust Concealment Gourd. Qingyi tried to feed it to the dragon head above Ganlin, but the dragon head seemed to disdain such a low-grade thing and could only casually slap it onto the blue stone next to Ganlin Spring, treating it as a decoration.
So when Xu Ning looked at the young master, he found that he also felt the call coming from the northern sea. The two of them naturally had the same thought.
Confess!
After all, the place where that thought resided happened to be the location of Petersburg, Melo.
However, during her conversation with the young master, Xu Ning discovered that the young master seemed to have a very unfriendly sense of the "it" that was making the call.
But I clearly felt joy and excitement at the reunion in that call.
What's going on here? Could it be that there are two calls coming from there?
It sounds like there's only one call, but this call seems even more absurd because it expresses different attitudes towards himself and the young master.
"Forget it, we won't get any results here. I'll go and see for myself when I have time."
Xu Ning waved his hand, turned around and glanced at Vilette behind him.
A large question mark appeared on the face of the Supreme Judge.
You don't understand, right? Even I, the person involved, don't understand the situation, so you can forget about guessing.
When Navelette saw the mocking expression on Xu Ning's face, even her usually calm and collected heart stirred with a slight displeasure.
"I feel obligated to remind Mr. Xu Ning that Mello Petersburg, as an important part of the Fontainebleau Trials process, is not a place that can be entered and exited at will. Your so-called wish to find time to go in and take a look is probably unlikely to be fulfilled..."
Xu Ning, who was drinking, almost burst out laughing. "Your Honor, I believe you can't come and go as you please, but if you say I can't even go in and take a look... how about I handle a couple of cases so we can go through the procedures?"
A few dark lines appeared on Villette's forehead. She really didn't want to say anything more to this drunkard. She flicked her sleeves and turned to leave.
"Hey? Don't you want to go to Lujingquan and see what's going on?"
Xu Ning called out from behind, but received no response. He turned to Esmond, one of the security guards beside him, and urged, "Let's go. Can't you see that guy is eager to jump into the water?"
When Esmond saw that Navelette did not refute Xu Ning and the other man's claim that "Lu Jingquan is haunted," despite having no liking for Xu Ning for daring to mock the judge, he still led Marcel toward Lu Jingquan outside the gate.
Upon hearing from Kong that the pure water spirit in the form of Vinier was here, Marcel jumped into the pool almost without hesitation.
“Veneer, my Venere, are you here...? Talk to me... I am Vasher…”
Marcel called out in vain, but received no response.
"What's going on? Didn't you say..."
"Don't worry, I won't lie to you."
Xu Ning walked over and listened to the increasingly clear "Vashe" in his ears. He said to Marcellus expressionlessly, "The reason you can't hear it is because your perception of water elements is too weak. The little white-haired girl over there who can fly was originally deaf like you, but after she accidentally drank the primordial water of the womb that you prepared for Navia, she was able to hear it."
"The water of the primordial womb?"
Marcel looked somewhat bewildered. He had lost Viner because of this damned Primal Sea of Pregnancy water, and he never expected that he would still need this Primal Sea of Pregnancy water to see her in the end.
Marcellus pleaded with Esmond, "Um... I have it in my evidence, could I use it first, and then..."
Esmond's face turned ashen as he rebuked, "Are you kidding me? You know that's evidence. How could I let you use it for anything else?"
Xu Ning reached out and patted Marcel on the shoulder.
"I do have something similar here, it just depends on whether you're willing to drink it."
Xu Ning flipped his right hand, revealing a celadon bowl. A stream of clear spring water flowed from the Dust-Hidden Gourd, filling the entire bowl.
Esmond's expression changed, and he reached out to stop him.
Xu Ning dodged with the bowl in hand, his grip incredibly steady, not spilling a single drop of water.
"Are you in such a hurry to send me to Mero Petersburg? If I had just spilled a little, you could have been offered sacrifices in this pool and waited to be reincarnated."
Upon hearing this, the security guards, including Esmond, all took a step back in unison.
Esmond's face looked even worse than before.
"According to the escort procedure, he is not allowed to accept anything from anyone other than the guards, including this bowl of water of yours, which may have been laced with something."
Xu Ning handed the porcelain bowl to Marcel without a care in the world. The guards all saw it, but no one dared to stop him.
Xu Ning smiled and asked, "What would happen if I actually gave it to him?"
As Esmond watched Marcellus drink it without hesitation, he could only suppress his anger and reply, "Then you will bear all the consequences that may arise because of this."
"So you didn't kill me on the spot? That's good."
Xu Ning teased the earnest guard, then turned to look at Marcel, whose mind was gradually becoming dazed.
Are you ready to accept your fate?
Just as I was about to immerse myself in that blue world, Kong suddenly grabbed my arm.
"Brother Xu, something seems off here..."
Kong listened intently with a solemn expression. The Pure Water Spirit's calls came one after another, as if they had become extremely urgent.
“When we last saw that water sprite, Vinier, didn’t she tell Vasher not to come looking for her again? But why is she still calling his name here, and… and the emotion in her voice is a bit off…”
"Sora, you're getting more and more sensitive!"
Xu Ning patted Kong on the shoulder and said, "However, there's a little knowledge you should learn about girls."
"When they say no, that's often when they want it most..."
Kong was puzzled. "I don't think we can generalize. After all, if she really didn't want it, we might have misunderstood that she did."
Xu Ning shook his head. "If they really didn't want it, they wouldn't say no, they would say 'Idiot, get lost!'"
He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word for a long time. "Then...then she said no..."
Xu Ning smiled meaningfully and said, "That means they really want to see Vasher!"
