"Do you have a death wish?" Xiu looked up or at least, tried to look at Dylan as he went on, "Why are you drinking so much?"

He tried to s.n.a.t.c.h the drink from her hand and she resisted. "What does that have to do with you? We don't even know each other. Don't hold my drink hostage!"

Dylan's face twitched uncontrollably. "Missy, there is a thing called compa.s.sion. Although I lack that a lot, I still find it my responsibility to remind you that this is not good for health."

Xiu was about to drop a comeback when a voice from behind halted her movements. 

"Didi, what's going on here?" 

Xiu's eyes sparkled as if a fire had lit up inside them. His voice reminded her of whiskey. It was velvety smooth and yet it had that touch of a slow burn. But this was the kind of burn that awakened her soul.

"Great! Your green bean is back," said Dylan and Xiu turned around to face him.

"Green bean?" asked Darren in confusion as he looked at Dylan and then his eyes fell on Xiu. "And who is she?"

Dylan raised his hands, shrugged his shoulders and casually replied, "I have no idea. But she's looking for you." And then he fell back on the couch since he felt like his job was done. It wasn't like Xiu was there to look for him and from the starstruck look on Xiu's face, he could tell that she won't look at him again.

Darren raised his brows at Dylan's response and walked close to Xiu as he asked doubtfully, "You're looking for me?" The more Xiu heard his voice, the more she felt that euphoric bliss bubbling inside of her. In her daze, she bobbed her head up and down. Getting that nod of affirmation, he added, "O-kay. How can I help you?"

Xiu took a step towards him with a fascinated look on her face and Darren took a step back on instinct. They continued until Darren's back hit the wall behind him. "What are you doing?" he finally managed to question.

"Honestly, green bean doesn't do you justice. I have never seen such beautiful eyes from such close distance." Her eyes bore into his as if to search for his soul as she continued, "Fascinating. Or perhaps, I should say spellbinding. Because I certainly feel spellbound now." 

Darren's brows were raised as he felt awkward being pressed against the wall by a girl. It was a first for him and the way she was looking at him was making it hard for him to stay calm as well. 

Xiu's hand lifted up as if to touch his face but her other hand slapped her own hand as she rebuked it with, "Don't get unruly." Darren's lips lifted up as she continued, "Sorry about that. I think my hands have some improper ideas. But I don't. I am a very decent person." Leaning close to him, she smiled up at him and added, "By the way, I was wondering... Do you have a place to stay? If not, my heart is available 24/7."

"Cough! Cough!"

That cough came from Dylan who chocked on the peanuts he had yet to swallow. Xiu gave him a sideway threatening look before looking back at Darren with a smile and went on, "It's even free of charge. Would you like to check-in?"

Darren stifled his laughter and said, "Hmmm. That offer sounds really enticing."

"I know, right?" She placed her hand at the wall behind him and said, "Sorry for staring but the fault lies with your eyes. They are seducing me on purpose. I'm innocent."

"Really?" asked Darren and Xiu nodded her head innocently. "Should I close my eyes?"

"No, don't!" said Xiu hastily. "There is no need for that. I'm very willing to drown in these grey orbs."

"Huh?"

"Grey is your eyes color, just how can it make my heart flutter? Your looks are making me a sucker, would you like to be my lover? Your skin is like milk b.u.t.ter, why are you leaving my heart on a cutter? Just write down your number, don't make me suffer. After making my heart stutter, you can't leave me like any other. You're making me wonder, can't you really be my lover?" As Xiu went on and on, both Darren and Dylan had a look of disbelief palpable on their faces.

"Wow! This is the most unique way of flirting I have ever seen," said Dylan.

"You're really hitting on me, Red?" asked Darren staring back at her.

"Isn't that obvious?" was Xiu's response. "How much more obvious should I be?"

Darren stayed quiet for a minute before he held her shoulders and swapped their positions. Now, Xiu was pressed against the wall while Darren looked at her with mirth flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes. "You don't have to be more obvious for me to know that you're new to this. But for a first-timer, you're doing pretty fine."

"Really?" She smiled as if she accomplished something huge. "That was a compliment, right?"

"Mhmm..." His face leaned down as he whispered close to her ear, "You just need a little practice. Would you like me to teach you?" Xiu felt a euphoria resonating inside of her with his voice. And since her heartbeat was slow and as her breathing was uneven, she blamed it all on him.

"A person should always be willing to learn something new. Because knowledge can't do any harm to us," said Xiu.

Darren played with a lock of her hair as he mumbled, "Aiya, little Red, you don't even know what you're saying. But if you're willing then..." His one hand wrapped around her waist while his eyes went down to stare at her lips before meeting her gaze again. He bit his bottom lip and said, "Little Red... I've found heaven in your eyes, now I'm curious what it tastes like."

Xiu was so engrossed in the texture of his voice that context didn't matter to her at all. All she saw was the way his perfectly shaped lips moved as he spoke. She even saw him moving closer. His lips, only inches away from hers stopped as he lifted his eyes to look at her as if asking for her permission.

But he didn't need it since Xiu pushed herself towards him as she threw her safe-self out the window of caution. If she was meant to be reckless tonight, she was gonna be exactly that!

“What's……that……?”

With her mouth open, Tiraiza looks up at the sky. Floating in the sky is a huge unknown weapon. Seeing the arrows of light falling from it, Tiraiza screams.

“Get down!”

Everyone lies down, but that action was unnecessary. However, they headed only for the enemies.

“Was that an attack from an ally?”

Jamie gets up.

“I've never seen a magic like this.”

It's only natural for Iris to never have seen it.

The four spirit attributes----it’s not fire, not water, not earth, and not wind. It's neither light nor dark. The seventh element, evil attributed magic. It's an attribute unknown to humans.

The same thing can be said for demons.

“What was that just now? Dangerous.”

The high ranking demon in front of their eyes avoided the arrow by dodging it. It looked up at the sky, but the third dimensional magic formation had already disappeared.

“I guess it doesn't matter. For the time being, I'll just kill you guys.”

The demon focuses on the 3 in front of him. The 3 gradually begin to retreat. They were in an inferior position.

“Guwahaa!”

Getting hit by Jeko, high ranking demon gets blown away. Breaking through many buildings, the demon’s body finally stops. The buildings fell one by one.

The 3 took the chance to retreat.

“I heard the building was strengthened by magic, but it was a lot weaker than I thought. I guess it can't be helped.” “b.a.s.t.a.r.d, who are you?”

The high ranking demons rises from the debris.

“I won't answer that question. I don't have the right to.” “What are you saying!?”

The high ranking demon gets enraged, and attacks Jeko.

“Dieyaaaaaaaa!”

Those were the demon’s last words. The moment it prepared its sickle. Jako drew his katana.

“Plus, there's no point to telling it to someone who's about to die.”

The demon heard those words from behind it. The demon was cut in two at a speed which couldn't be seen with eyes.

Click. Jeko puts his katana back into its sheath.

“Just one more.”

Jeko’s figure disappeared back into darkness.

“I didn't think we'd have this much trouble……”

Fiona's mind was upset. She, as a hero with Krau Solas was unable to kill a high ranking demon. She realized they had already been defeated, but after that there were a few unknown phenomena.

What happened, and how was the situation? She pushed those thoughts to the back of her head, and focused on the high ranking demon in front of her.

“That's my line.”

As expected, as it had no choice but to be wary of the Divine Sword, the demon wasn't able to attack very often.

“But, let's finish this already----Bufaoto!”

The demon suddenly soared high into the sky. At a speed unseenable with bare eyes, the demon is kicked away by Jeko.

“Evil Burst.”

A large explosion of evil attributed magic occurs in the sky above the capital Rhodan. The high ranking demon who was blown into the sky began getting erased.

“What was that now……? Who……are you?”

Fiona asks while being way.

“c.r.a.p. There was someone here.”

Jeko was acting puzzled.

“I haven't received any instructions on what to do in this situation.”

Jeko is troubled.

“What's with this guy……he isn't understanding me.” “I guess I should erase her.”

Hearing Jeko's words, Fiona retreats without thinking. Jeko's aura is jaki. An unknown aura to mankind.

The unknown is feared. Compelled by that fear, Fiona backs away from him.

“Seyaaaaaa!”

She attacks him with Krau Solas. Jeko accepts it with his bare hand. He grabs it with his hand.

“No way! To stop it with your bare hands!?”

Fiona opens her eyes with surprise.

“Ow, ow. I thought it was a sharp sword, but it was Krau Solas. How nostalgic.”

Jeko laughed while showing his broken hand. However, that will heal immediately.

“What's so nostalgic? This sword has been pa.s.sed down to heroes since the fourth demonic calamity.” “That's why I said it was nostalgic. It'd take awhile to tell you the story----I’ll have you die here.”

Then, Jeko disappeared from Fiona's sight. While rotating, he blew away. Then, his head is smashed to the ground, and is *pikupiku* trembling.

“Excuse me. Lady, are you hurt?”

A gentlemanly young man calls out to her.

“Wa, yes. Who is it now?” “What did you say?” “That guy who's fallen over there----hey what? No one's there.”

Without making any sounds, Jeko disappeared.

“Did you see an illusion or something? I heard that the other hero fell down earlier and was carried into the castle.” “Eh, Yufi was? Thank you.”

Fiona bowed, and hurried to the castle.

“I deeply apologize.”

After confirming that Fiona left, Jeko reappears and apologizes.

“She's one of the heroes. Stop thinking of killing her.” “It was because she saw me fighting……” “It's difficult for humans to tell that us when we have our jaki released are the same person as us without it released.” “My clothes are……” “Yeah, I understand. Although they're common janitor clothes, they have the Cantabridge Academy embroidery is attached.”

Julius releases a sigh.

“Why were you wearing those…” “I'm sorry, I didn't think about it and wore my normal clothes.”

While Jeko was apologizing, he suddenly notices something, and rebuts.

“Ashtal-sama was also wearing his uniform!” “His way of fighting can't be noticed by humans. Also, so he wasn't exposed, we fought too. This time he just used a third dimensional magic formation from far away. Now he just has the duel outside the city. There are no problems.”

He confirmed that n.o.body was around before he released his jaki.

“Julius-sama rarely isn't wearing a tuxedo or a suit. You have a rough look today.” “I'm not used to it, so it's actually embarra.s.sing.”

Julius looks at himself. A flashy shirt pattern that young people would wear. It was his first time wearing such clothes.

Julius-sama walks out as is.

“Where are you going?”

Jeko asks.

“I’m cleaning up. I'm hiding evidence of what we did.” “Eh, can you hide this?”

Jeko is unable to understand.

“On the contrary, how do you think humans will judge today?” “Err, that we evil G.o.ds……” “Humans don't know anything about evil G.o.ds.”

Thus, no one will think that this is the work of evil G.o.ds.

“However, some definitely saw us. That overwhelming power and jaki.” “If no one says anything, they'll be lots of discussions, about who did this and how.” “Wa, haaa……”

Jeko wasn't able to keep up with the conversation.

“Then I'll skip to the conclusion. We'll say someone did it.” “Eh, are you going to tell everyone about Ashtal-sama?” “If I did that, we’d be putting the cart before the horse. If we convince the people that someone else did it, they'll consent to it. There are people who are fitting for that role near us.” “Were there?”

Julius smiles bitterly at Jeko's dullness. If it was Ashtal, he'd probably be beating him by now.

“50 years ago, there was someone who did something more amazing than this. If we said it was her, most people wouldn't suspect anything.”

While tilting his head, Jeko nodded. He didn't understand, but it was a pain, so he pretended like he did. If it was Ashtal, he would've socked him, but Julius didn't do such a thing. He just sighed.

“Over time, it'll be accepted as the truth. We're fine with that.”

For her, it'll probably become hard to live as a human. While thinking he was sorry for the inconvenience, Julius returned to the academy.

Chapter 1026: Wei Ran Return Wind (4)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

White Lemon: Wei Ran Ran Ran, have you decided to take on the manga adaptation that I mentioned to you the last time?

Just as Ming Shu made to turn off her phone, a message popped out.

W: Why are you asking me this in the middle of the night.

This was not working hours. Are editors all so dedicated?

White Lemon: … It is not easy for me to catch you online!

W: …

White Lemon: Hurry up and make a decision. The manga industry is not bad now.

W: I will consider it.

White Lemon: I will wait for your news. Don’t disappear for another half a month again. Sob.

White Lemon: Oh right, your novel End of the Road might sell its film copyright. The price that the other party gave is not high so we are still negotiating.

W: Okay. I know.

End of the Road was one of the first novels that the Host wrote. It was a detective novel.

The film copyrights that she sold most of the time were of her recent works. End of the Road might be sold because detective films were popular among the viewers recently.

Ming Shu threw her cellphone away and changed into her sleepwear.

When she lay on her bed, she had the feeling that she missed something… she ate her snacks, bathed, gained some Hatred Points. Nothing seemed to be amiss.

Let’s just sleep!

The readers that were waiting on a certain website wondered, Why didn’t the writer upload a new chapter today?

When Ming Shu woke up the next morning, she remembered that she was an author and had to publish a new chapter each day.

She ate the breakfast sent by the hotel and opened her laptop.

Her mind was blank. What should she write?

By the time Ming Shu finished her breakfast, her doc.u.ment was still blank.

I should go into the financial industry.

If not, I can go into the entertainment industry. With the Host’s face, she could earn money by being a flower vase.

Ming Shu looked at the mirror.

Perfect!

As Ming Shu was being narcissistic, Zhang Mu came over and asked her what she was doing.

Ming Shu pointed at her laptop wearily.

Zhang Mu said, “The gathering is in the afternoon. I will take my laptop over. We can work together.

Ming Shu: “…”

I was planning to change my career.

Zhang Mu took his laptop over and managed to get into the mood quickly. Ming Shu looked at his progress. She slowly looked back at her own screen.

Ming Shu pulled out the summary of the novel the Host wrote. It was very detailed. There was nothing for her to think about. She just needed to write based on the summary.

The Host’s writing style was beautiful and calm. Her readers felt very comfortable reading her novels.

Ming Shu learned the Host’s writing style. She was a little slow at the start but after she got used to it, her pace started to pick up.

Zhang Mu glanced at the lady opposite him while he was taking a break.

The lady’s fingers were slender. They flew over the keyboard without pause.

Zhang Mu remembered what happened yesterday night. He went into a daze.

She didn’t seem bothered by it…

Ding—

A message woke Zhang Mu up from his stupor. He took out his cellphone.

“Wei Lan, I have to go and pick up a friend.”

“Okay.” Ming Shu raised her head and smiled gently. “Bring back some snacks. Good people will be blessed.”

Zhang Mu: “…”

Are you not afraid of getting fat?

…

Zhang Mu hurried down the building and found the person in the main hall.

“I thought that you were not coming.” Zhang Mu gave the person a bear hug. “Have you straightened out your thoughts?”

The teenager scratched his head. He pointed to the person next to him. “Ice Lake Snow wanted to come so he dragged me along.”

Zhang Mu followed his finger. The man beside them was dressed casually. He sat properly on the sofa. One look and you knew that he was a well-mannered person.

“Guru Ice Lake Snow…” Zhang Mu greeted the man. Ice Lake Snow nodded slightly. Zhang Mu dragged the teenager to the side. “When did you become close with him?”

“I knew him all along,” the teenager said. “Didn’t I tell you before?”

“You never told me anything!”

The teenager was puzzled. “… I might have forgotten.”

Zhang Mu: “…”

How can you forget such an important thing!

Ice Lake Snow!

If they went by the terms of the entertainment industry, they were considered B-list actors while Wei Lan was an A-list actress. Ice Lake Snow was the movie king of the entertainment industry.

“h.e.l.lo, are you Ice Lake Snow?”

Two ladies appeared suddenly. Zhang Mu and the young man looked over. Zhang Mu frowned. It was Lin Yuxin again.

He didn’t know who was in the wrong yesterday, but he felt that Wei Lan was not an unreasonable person.

“Yes.” Ice Lake Snow nodded.

Meteor Rain winked at Lin Yuxin. Lin Yuxin appeared helpless. “Guru, my friend loves your books. Can you sign for my friend?”

“Today is not a signing session.”

He meant that he would not sign for her.

Meteor Rain was disappointed. However, the man’s aura was dominating so she didn’t dare to pester him.

Lin Yuxin shrugged at Meteor Rain. She had no way out, either. Meteor Rain whispered something to Lin Yuxin. Lin Yuxin seemed hesitant.

Meteor Rain pleaded with her.

Lin Yuxin had no choice but to ask, “Guru, will you partic.i.p.ate in the event today?”

Ice Lake Snow suddenly stood up and looked behind Zhang Mu and the young man.

“Everyone is here. Let’s go.”

The teenager looked back.

A young man dragged a silver luggage case over. His hairstyle was the most popular grandma-gry color and he had a pair of earphones on. His style was sort of hip-hop.

The young man was extremely pretty. He was like the rare and exquisite product of an artist. He was charming and enchanted people.

“Is that a celebrity?”

“I don’t think so. I’ve never seen him before.”

“He is so handsome.”

People in the main hall all looked at the young man. The young man smiled slightly. He glanced arrogantly at the people that were looking at him.

The young man pushed his luggage in front of himself. Ice Lake Snow caught the luggage and asked Zhang Mu, “Which floor?”

Zhang Mu replied instinctively, “21st floor.”

The young man had his hands in his pockets. When he pa.s.sed Zhang Mu, he even winked at him.

Zhang Mu: “…”

Zhang Mu grabbed the teenager. “Who is this?”

“I don’t know. I was just told to wait for someone. I have never seen this person before.” The teenager was puzzled too.

Zhang Mu lowered his voice. “Weren’t there rumors that Ice Lake Snow is gay? Could this young man be…”

The teenager looked frightened.

“Let’s hurry up and follow them.” The teenager ignored his feelings and dragged Zhang Mu into the elevator.

“Yuxin, who was that young man just now?” Meteor Rain asked Lin Yuxin.

Lin Yuxin retracted the surprise in her eyes. She shook her head. “I don’t recognize him.”

“He is so handsome…” Meteor Rain suddenly got excited. “Did you see how well Ice Lake Snow treated the young man? There are rumors that the guru is gay. Do you think that it’s true?”

Lin Yuxin frowned. “Don’t talk about things that have no basis.”

Meteor Rain said, “Ice Lake Snow is very handsome. The young man is pretty too. They look compatible with each other.”

Lin Yuxin stopped her. “Let’s go.”

Meteor Rain chased after Lin Yuxin. “Yuxin, don’t you think that guru is very handsome? He is the face of the industry…”

Chapter 775: The Prince Is Well (24)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the middle of the night…

A sneaky figure ran into the old temple. Someonce was already waiting at the dome. The other party saw someone coming in and immediately went forward.

Before the other party could say anything, the person that came exploded first. “I asked you all to a.s.sa.s.sinate Prince Six, I didn’t ask you to poison him. Are you trying to kill me?”

Song Yunjiao only heard that there was poison on the a.s.sa.s.sins’ swords after she left.

The a.s.sa.s.sin that came to meet her frowned. “We followed your orders. We didn’t put any poison on anything.”

“If you didn’t put the poison, why was that lady poisoned?” Song Yunjiao wore a shawl over her face and she lowered her voice. Her voice sounded a little deep.

The a.s.sa.s.sin said, “Are you trying to repudiate your debt?”

Song Yunjiao sneered. “Repudiate my debt? Why don’t you go and find out for yourself if I am talking nonsense or speaking the truth!”

She suddenly rejoiced a little that she didn’t go and block that attack.

If she did, the one that was dying now would be her.

The a.s.sa.s.sin saw how certain Song Yunjiao was and started to doubt himself.

The a.s.sa.s.sination today was a loss to them. A lot of his men didn’t make it back.

The a.s.sa.s.sin sent a letter and asked someone to inquire about it. This issue just happened so news about it was everywhere.

The a.s.sa.s.sin got his reply very quickly.

Read more chapter on vipnovel.com

The a.s.sa.s.sin that caused all this was dead so they didn’t know why this happened, either.

“No matter what, you still need to pay the remaining sum to us. After all, so many of my brothers died.”

Song Yunjiao: “You still have the face to ask me for money?”

The a.s.sa.s.sin said coldly, “The information that you gave us was wrong too. You didn’t tell us that there would be so many covert guards around.”

Song Yunjiao choked.

Her understanding of Prince Six was still too little.

Prince Six just showed his crippled body to the public. He didn’t portray himself as a stupid person. Thus, it was reasonable for him to have covert guards.

The a.s.sa.s.sin said again, “Miss, we made a mistake in this order so you only need to pay half of the remaining sum to us.”

Song Yunjiao felt stifled in her heart. “You almost killed me and you still have the face to ask me for money!”

The a.s.sa.s.sin looked at her coldly.

Song Yunjiao looked at the sword in his hand and suddenly felt anxious.

These people were outlaws.

–

Song Yunjiao didn’t want to pay the money, but from the stance of the a.s.sa.s.sin, they might kill her if she didn’t pay them. She had no choice.

But…

Who wanted to harm her?

Or rather, harm Prince Six?

If no one blocked that sword for him, the one that was hurt now would be him.

Qin Wu…

Qin Wu?

She grabbed her and prevented her from going over.

It must be her!!

“The second lady is here.”

Song Yunjiao heard the voice and her heart started pounding furiously. She looked around her and tried to find a place to hide.

However, there was no one on the streets now. Before she could find a hiding spot, the people from the Song Mansion appeared in front of her.

They grabbed her and took her without saying anything.

Song Yunjiao couldn’t resist at all. She was dragged back to the Song Mansion.

Pa!

Mother Song slapped her on the face and pulled a long face as she scolded, “How dare you still run away, you b.i.t.c.h. Why don’t you look at what you are now?”

Song Yunjiao’s face stung from the pain. An iron taste spread in her mouth.

She glared fiercely at Mother Song.

“How dare you still stare at me. Lock her up in the woodshed. If she runs away again, you will all be punished.” Mother Song pointed at the servants. “Don’t give her any food. Let me see if she will still have the energy to run away.”

The servants didn’t dare to disobey Mother Song so they hurriedly dragged Song Yunjiao to the woodshed.

“I’m so angry.” Mother Song said with a sarcastic face. “Everyone is giving me trouble. Have you found the first young lady?”

“Not… yet.”

“It is already late, but she is still outside.” There was no concern on Mother Song’s face. “Go and look for her again. If not, the master will say that I am not showing her enough love.”

Mother Song only had one daughter. That was the youngest daughter of the Song family.

The oldest daughter was given birth to by Father Song’s first wife. However, she pa.s.sed away soon after giving birth.

Hence, Mother Song only symbolically asked people to look for Song Yunyan. She was not worried at all.

–

“Prince Six, this way please…”

Song Yunjiao had not eaten for an entire day. Her stomach was hurting from hunger when she suddenly heard the voice outside.

Prince Six?

Prince Six is here?

Song Yunjiao tidied her appearance instinctively.

The door of the woodshed opened and Prince Six was pushed in by someone.

“Your Highness…” Song Yunjiao’s tears fell immediately. She ran toward Prince Six but someone stopped her. “Your Highness, I…”

“Song Yunjiao, the antidote.” Prince Six interrupted her. His tone was cold and distant, just like the first time they met.

Song Yunjiao parted her dry lips. “Your Highness… what antidote?”

“You know what I mean.”

Song Yunjiao shook her head. “I don’t.”

Prince Six waved his hand at the bodyguard and brought someone inside. He threw the person in front of Song Yunjiao.

This was the a.s.sa.s.sin she hired…

Song Yunjiao’s body started shaking.

She must not admit it.

She must not admit it…

“Your Highness, who is this?” Song Yunjiao just managed to control her emotions.

There was only one last breath left in the a.s.sa.s.sin. He was forced to look up by the bodyguard.

His eyes landed on Song Yunjiao’s body and he identified her weakly. “It… it is her.”

Song Yunjiao looked at the a.s.sa.s.sin in disbelief. She was wearing a shawl and changed her voice. How could he still recognize her?

“She… she was wearing these clothes just now.”

Song Yunjiao felt as though she was struck by lightning.

She was caught by the people from the Song Mansion so she didn’t have the time to change her attire.

“Song Yunjiao, antidote.” Prince Six’s patience was almost gone.

“I… it wasn’t me. I don’t know any antidote. It wasn’t me…”

Song Yunjiao started spouting nonsense.

“a.s.sa.s.sinating a prince means a death penalty.” The bodyguard threatened her at the side. “Miss Song should hurry up and give us the antidote. His Highness will spare you on behalf of your relationship with him in the past.”

Death penalty…

She couldn’t die.

She didn’t want to kill him, either.

She just…

“It was Qin Wu…” Song Yunjiao suddenly raised her head. Her eyes were filled with hatred. “It was Qin Wu, she did it, it must be her… that day…”

Song Yunjiao admitted that she hired the a.s.sa.s.sins, but her motive was not to kill him.

It was Ming Shu who stopped her.

She must have done something.

Prince Six frowned deeply. Song Yunjiao didn’t apply the poison.

Who else could it be?

The a.s.sa.s.sins that came to kill him were all dead. This one that he caught was useless. Hence, there was nowhere they could start to investigate who placed the poison.

Is it really that woman?

“Go to Yi’an Mansion,” Prince Six said.

“Your Highness… Your Highness, I know my mistake…” Song Yunjiao looked really pitiful. “Your Highness, I just didn’t want to lose you. I don’t want to hurt you.”

Prince Six face was really cold. “Persecute her according to the crime she committed.”

“Yes…”

“Your Highness…” Song Yunjiao widened her eyes. She screamed even louder, “No, Your Highness…!”

Prince Six was shortly pushed out by someone. Song Yunjiao was left inside.

She watched as Prince Six’s wheelchair disappeared in the sunlight.

Song Yunjiao fell onto the floor without any energy left in her. Her face looked hideous as hatred and hopelessness appeared on it.

a.s.sa.s.sinating a prince…

Death penalty.

1313 Bargaining Chip.

Once the chattering subsided, the host of the conference opened his mouth. “Let’s invite the three candidates to explain their future plans for the 23rd division.”

Lan Luofeng took a deep breath and stood up. She walked up the stage slowly.

This was the first time Lan Luofeng went up on stage as the main speaker. She wasn’t following Ling Xiao up as she did in the past. However, her footsteps were firm just like in the past. She didn’t seem nervous at all.

He Xuyang finally felt at ease when he saw Lan Luofeng’s confident posture.

No one noticed that when Lan Luofeng got up, Ren Feiyu (Ling Xiao), who was wearing an indifferent expression all these while, suddenly straightened his body and glanced quickly at Lan Luofeng.

Lan Luofeng was Ling Xiao’s widow so Qiao Zhenyu and Yang Tie naturally took a step back to let Lan Luofeng speak first.

Lan Luofeng politely rejected their offer but the other two people remained firm. Thus, she nodded and went up to the center of the stage.

Lan Luofeng stood on the stage and looked at the huge number of people below her. She felt that her heart was going to jump out of her throat. She had already mentally prepared herself beforehand but when she actually faced the situation, she was still nervous.

She wouldn’t be worried if it was only for herself since she didn’t mind losing. However, she was fighting for Ling Lan. Hence, she was afraid that her mistake would affect Ling Lan’s succession of the 23rd division.

For a moment, Lan Luofeng didn’t know what to say. She remained silent.

Ling Xiao clasped his hands together tightly. This was the first time Lan Luofeng left his protection and faced the public to speak. He knew that Lan Luofeng had a strong personality. At first, he started liking Lan Luofeng because of her voice. However, as he got to know her better and understood her personality more, he fell in love with her. From then onwards, he couldn’t leave her anymore.

That year, he left his wife a little more than a month after she got pregnant. Although he had to leave because it was a command from the military, he knew Lan Luofeng would be able to pull through it with her personality. She would find a suitable way to survive without him.

Because of trust, he left her and went to the battlefield. Because of trust, he kept his vows to her for 16 years. Because of trust, he fought desperately to find a way home. Because of trust, he chose to hide his ident.i.ty and protect her secretly.

Ling Xiao released his right hand slowly and his gaze turned indifferent again. He believed his Luofeng. She would definitely pa.s.s this test with flying colors.

Lan Luofeng started speaking. Her voice was clear and stable. She wasn’t nervous even though there were so many people present.

“First, I would like to thank all the members of the 23rd division for their love for Ling Xiao. They were willing to give all their trust to his judgement that Ling Lan would be the best candidate for the position as the general of the 23rd division. They applied internally to allow Ling Lan to have this precious opportunity to become a candidate for the general’s position.”

“The war with Twilight caused me to lose Ling Xiao. At the same time, I also lost contact with Ling Lan. Hence, when he was pushed into this position, I was initially opposed to the idea. The 23rd division was built by Ling Xiao and he had gained the respect and trust of all his soldiers. It couldn’t be denied that many people labeled the 23rd division as Ling Xiao’s division. However, I would like to say that the 23rd division is the same as the other 22 divisions of the Federation. There’s nothing special or unique about it. It doesn’t belong to Ling Xiao. I, Lan Luofeng, don’t mind who becomes the general of the 23rd division. I’m sure that if Ling Xiao was still alive, he would feel the same way.”

Lan Luofeng’s speech was magnanimous. The representatives below started applauding loudly. At first, they just respected her because she was Ling Xiao’s wife. Now, they realised that she was a reasonable and selfless person. Their impression of her got better and they admired her even more.

The First Marshal frowned slightly when he heard Lan Luofeng’s speech. Lan Luofeng’s words had put him at a disadvantage. If the representatives below felt that Ling Lan and Lan Luofeng didn’t want the position of 23rd division’s general, the faction of the Second Marshal and the Third Marshal would benefit. After hearing Lan Luofeng’s speech, the Second Marshal and Third Marshal’s expressions got gentler.

The representatives from the 23rd division all had stunned expressions. This speech was entirely different from the materials they had prepared. They didn’t know what to do.

He Xuyang tapped his thighs silently. He decided to watch quietly. He believed that the lady his general loved wasn’t a stupid person. Major General Lan must have something up her sleeve.

Only Ling Xiao closed his eyes after listening to Lan Luofeng. He looked as though he didn’t care about this matter anymore but if you look closely, you would realise that there was a tiny smile on his face. He completely understood what Lan Luofeng was doing.

“However, the representatives from the 23rd division convinced me. They respected Ling Xiao. If the 23rd division was taken over by someone else right after Ling Xiao pa.s.sed away, they won’t be able to accept it. They actually feel strongly against it too. They recommended Ling Lan because he’s Ling Xiao’s son. They hoped that he could inherit Ling Xiao’s unfulfilled wish and lead the 23rd division to glory. Since Ling Lan is missing, they requested me to be his representative to solve the problem.” Lan Luofeng’s eyes were filled with tears as she continued speaking. Her voice was full of emotions. “I can’t reject their earnest request. I have my own selfish thoughts too. I want to see the 23rd division, which Ling Xiao regarded as his pride, becoming the 23rd division wished it will become.”

He Xuyang clenched his fist tightly. Without a doubt, Lan Luofeng was starting to give more bargaining chips to Ling Lan. She pointed out the att.i.tude of the soldiers in the 23rd division so that the representatives below knew how much they would reject the arrival of a new general. If they didn’t do it right, the new general might be just a mindless puppet. The only way the military could change the general to whoever they wanted was to sweep away all the main officers of the 23rd division.

But, this would shake the hearts of all the soldiers in the 23rd division. If the anger of the soldiers was ignited, it might affect the other divisions too. Thus, unless there was no other way, the military wouldn’t touch the 23rd division so soon after Ling Xiao’s death.

But, Lan Luofeng’s actions pushed the higher authorities of the 23rd division out. These people would be blacklisted by the military and their path in the future would be heavily affected. They might have a hard time rising in rank.

Many representatives from the 23rd division had an unhappy look on their faces.

‘Since they wanted to use Young Master Lan and mistress, they must be prepared to pay the price.’ He Xuyang smiled lightly. Not everyone wanted to protect the 23rd division sincerely like him. Some people respected Ling Xiao but as the saying goes, the tea cools down when the person is gone. Without a powerful person suppressing the majority of the people, some of them would turn greedy. However, everyone had the same thing. In that case, he would make use of them too. Once everything had settled down, he would slowly count the debt.

Chapter 116 - A Troubled Song Lingshan

 

“Wh-wha-? Huh??” Mengyao almost tripped! Boyfriend? Moving in together? Was Shu trying to p.i.s.s her off to death?!! Mengyao only put on a straight face as she turned to Yushu, thinking of changing the subject. “Shu… You’re a lady you know… You should stop using words like p.i.s.s or p.o.o.p… it’s quite vulgar, isn’t it? Don’t say stuff like that anymore……”

“Okay, I won’t say anything.” Yushu nodded.

“Good……” Mengyao sighed.

“Well, I’ll tell Pingy about you and Shield Guy tomorrow then, if you’re fine with it……” Yushu continued.

“......” Mengyao really wanted to beat the girl up- didn’t they just agree not to say anything? The girl was clearly still h.e.l.lbent on announcing to Zhong Pinliang her relationship with Lin Yi!!

“Shu, the time’s not ripe yet you know… Lin Yi just transferred in, and we’ve made it clear that we don’t know him at all- doesn’t it sound a little forced if you… tell them about us? Everything works with a lot of proper steps involved, and it’s the same with this. So, don’t say anything yet!” Mengyao said.

“Oh. It’s your call, Yao Yao.” Yushu said with a nod. “Well, it doesn’t really matter to me anyway, you’re the first wife and I’m the second… You’re the one choosing the guy……”

“Shu!” Mengyao wanted to hammer Yushu to death. “Why’re you always bringing that up? You’re not stupid, you know you can’t just marry the guy I marry!!”

“Don’t be too sure.” Yushu said, leaning forward and embracing Mengyao. “That’s just how I’m gonna do it if I don’t wanna be apart from you……”

“...You’re really… What should I do with you, Shu.” Mengyao shook her head, a little speechless. She held Yushu’s hand, and the two of them walked up the stairs together. Mengyao made sure to give the general an order as they went up. “General Wei Wu, good performance so far! Keep guarding that spot, don’t let that man come up!”

“Woof, woof……” The general responded, troubled. That man wasn’t someone he could just stop if he actually tried to go up……

 

Song Lingshan was quite troubled indeed- Pin Jieyan’s death meant a dead end! He had more distinct features, like his bald head, and it was a lot easier to search for him in comparison to his common-looking lakeys……

From what the autopsy had reported, the man had died unprepared and vulnerable- it was instant death with one bullet. The other corpse had died in the same manner as well.

They’d made a thorough search of the surrounding area, but these were the only two corpses they had. It meant that the remaining members of the group were still alive.

This was actually good news- Ling Shan would’ve grown even more troubled if the entire group had perished. It wasn’t that big of a problem with just two deaths: it was either an inner conflict or a superior tying up loose ends.

They’d found out about the other corpse’s ident.i.ty online, as well: Ma Liu, a twenty-nine-year-old unemployed male, from the Shelf County Cattle Village area, a thug known for his laziness in the village.

He’d said he was leaving the village for work, and had disappeared since then……

Evidently, Ma Liu only met Pin Jieyan after leaving the village, and there wasn’t

much to go on with only that clue……

Lingshan hesitated a while longer before deciding to give Huaijun a call. She needed his advice- she’d claimed that she’d have the case solved in ten days already, and while the director wouldn’t go as far as to fire her, it’d look really bad for the Song family as well as herself… Her father would have to lower his head in shame in front of the other relatives……

“Yang Bro, it’s me……” Lingshan greeted, uneasy. After all, the call was informing Huaijun of her inability even after following in Huaijun’s footsteps for so long… It was quite embarra.s.sing for her……

Huaijun would always act as commander while Lingshan stayed in the vanguard, completely obliterating even the most violent of criminals with her experience as special ops coach backing her up. High-stakes missions were always Lingshan’s specialty, and this was something the department had recognized! A female captain wouldn’t have sat well with people otherwise, after all.

“What’s up, Song?” Huaijun was just about to go for a checkup at the Eastern doctor’s before going to the provincial office for a meeting later. His sickness had acted up again that day, and while it was because of Lin Yi agitating him, his body did deteriorate with each pa.s.sing day. Huaijun noticed at least that much.

“Cap’n… The 313 bank robbery case… We still don’t have any leads- the two suspects we located were dead, and the whereabouts of the other remaining group members are unknown as well……” Lingshan said carefully.

“Ah……” Huaijun, naturally, understood Lingshan’s position- the girl didn’t set out for detective work, after all, and she hadn’t been properly trained before. “Well, I’ve heard about this already, so let me tell you what my thoughts are: I think that the ‘cutting loose ends’ scenario isn’t too likely. If that were the case, we’d have more than just two corpses.”

“Yeah……. But what if the two were killed off by the others, because they weren’t part of the inner circle?” Lingshan asked softly.

“It wouldn’t add up- why would they bring two guys they don’t trust with them, for what purpose? It has to be either a team of inside people, or a team of non-insiders……” Huaijun said with a smile. “So, an inner conflict is the most plausible scenario. It could be a dispute with the distribution of the money they’d robbed on Pin Jieyan and Ma Liu’s part, resulting in their teammates killing them off.”

“Ah, that makes sense…… That should be it.” Linghan nodded in agreement.

“Now, if that were the case, all we need to do is increase the search radius. Unless they don’t care about the money, they’ll find a hard time moving around. We’ve got our men in the traffic police searching for us too, and the chances of them leaving Songshan’s very low, as well. Do another search where you found the corpses, you might find some new clues……” Huaijun continued.

“Alright, got it.” Lingshan said, suddenly feeling enlightened.

“Haha, Song, I heard about you having some fun with Lin Yi?” Huaijun sighed, deciding to ask her about it after all. The news of Song Lingshan’s forwardness had been spread around the police department already, about her servicing her boyfriend at the hospital……

Huaijun didn’t quite believe Lin Yi becoming a couple with Lingshan- Lin Yi wasn’t the type to make commitments like that just anywhere, and there hadn’t been any bad rumors regarding Lingshan ever since she’d entered the department…… She’d even rejected a man as outstanding as Chen Yutian, after all……

But every girl found herself attracted to someone eventually, as the saying went. As fine a man Chen Yutian was, he was still quite lacking when compared to someone like Lin Yi. Even a girl as exceptional as Yi was head over heels for Lin Yi, let alone Song Lingshan…...

Chapter 1288

Qiao feng'er simply took off himself, and then looked at the summer with his chest outstretched: "don't you want to see this? Let you see enough! "

"Well, I'll see enough first." In summer, looking at Qiao Fenger, he scanned her carefully and commented on her while looking at her. "Well, the skin is good. If the waist is thinner, the legs are very thin. It seems that they are too thin. If they are a little thicker, they look better. Ah, stand up straight. It seems that they are the most beautiful b.r.e.a.s.t.s. What I press is different..."

Poor Qiao Fenger can't stand it any more. She quickly takes care of her key parts with her hands, but her hands can't cover three points, which makes her very difficult. So she can only stare at summer fiercely: "Hey, do you still watch?"

"You let me see enough!" Summer looks innocent, and then a discontented look, "Hey, don't think I really want to see you, but you let me see. If I don't, I'm afraid you will feel inferior. In fact, I tell you, frost girl is much better than you......"

"Well, you've had enough of that. I don't look good. Do you still enjoy it?" Qiao Fenger is a little broken. She finds that what she is most dissatisfied with is not that the rogue has taken advantage of her, but that after the rogue has taken advantage of her in summer, she still feels that this one doesn't think that one, touching her chest will feel that she has a big chest. Now looking at her body, she even feels that she has a bad body!

At first, Qiao huang'er felt that the scene was really embarra.s.sing, which made her uncomfortable. But after listening to the quarrel between them for a while, she finally couldn't help it. She said, "Hey, can you two stop flirting and do business first?"

"Don't talk nonsense, yur. Who is flirting with him?" Qiao Fenger apologizes immediately.

"Yes, she is not my wife. Why do I flirt with her?" Summer finally and Qiao Fenger agree.

After looking at Qiao Yuer, summer said, "but you are right. I am very busy, so I won't waste time. Now I will wash the marrow."

In the summer, Qiao feng'er took out the silver needle and stuck it on Qiao feng'er without any sign. Qiao feng'er suddenly felt that she was soft and could not stand stably. She fell to the bathroom floor. Fortunately, there was a reclining chair in the bathroom. In the summer, Qiao feng'er fell on the reclining chair as soon as she made a move. Then, he continued to carry the needle like flying and quickly performed the fourth st.i.tch against the sky.

The fourth day against the sky is totally a pediatrics in summer. In less than ten minutes, Qiao Fenger has finished washing the marrow. She was originally naked, but now although she is still naked, she put on a dress made of mud, covering the spring light on her body.

"Take a bath for her first, and then I'll take the marrow for you." In the summer, he put away the silver needle and said to Qiao huanger.

Qiao huang'er did as she said, and soon cleaned Qiao feng'er clean. Then, when Qiao feng'er began to wear clothes, Qiao huang'er was also very conscious to take off her clothes.

Summer at this time said: "do not take off clothes."

"Ah?" Qiao huanger is stunned.

Qiao Fenger was also shocked: "Hey, what do you mean? Don't you want to wash her marrow? You promised me to wash the marrow for both of us. "

"Can't you be smarter?" Summer a little unhappy, "I just said that she does not need to take off clothes, not to say that do not need to wash pulp, do not take off clothes can also wash pulp."

"Then why do you want me to undress?" Qiao Fenger felt a little sad and angry at once. Who is this? Why do you have to go with her?

"Oh, for the sake of making me a dinner, I don't think I can stain your clothes, so I'll let you undress." Summer solemnly said.

"You!" Qiao Fenger is depressed. Naturally, she doesn't believe in the reason of summer. She has understood that in summer, the s.e.x wolf deliberately tricked her to take off her clothes and let him see enough.

Qiao huang'er can't cry or laugh. She really doesn't know what to think this summer. With the understanding of her onlooker, she is sure that if she climbs on Qiao feng'er's bed in the middle of the night in summer, Qiao feng'er may scold her, but she will never get him out of bed. She doesn't believe that she can't see this in summer. If Qiao feng'er doesn't care about him, how can she really let him ma.s.sage her chest Just let him have a look?

This clearly wants to see to be able to take off each other directly to see enough matter, summer just wants to cheat Qiao Fenger to take off clothes, is this person really has the eccentricity?

Confused, Qiao huang'er is relieved to hear that she doesn't need to take off her clothes. After all, she doesn't know summer so well, and she doesn't want to have any ambiguity with summer. She thinks that she should keep her duty and be an ordinary servant girl.

"You go to the chair." Summer at this time said to Qiao huang'er.

Qiao huang'er lies down in accordance with the words, and Qiao feng'er doesn't say anything anymore, because she's afraid that she will make trouble again. If she doesn't make it right, she will lose the chance to wash the marrow. If she wants to scold, she will have to wait until she has washed the marrow in summer.

However, after washing the marrow for Qiao huang'er in summer, Qiao feng'er had to stay in the bathroom first to bathe Qiao huang'er, and ran away directly in summer, so Qiao feng'er can't scold summer for the time being.

************The night is deep.

In summer, he still sits on the sofa in the living room, because Gu Hanshuang's transportation is not over yet. Although there should be no problem, he still needs to guard for the time being for the sake of safety.

Qiao feng'er and Qiao huang'er had already come out of the bathroom and dressed neatly. Then they all went upstairs. Before Qiao feng'er went upstairs, he just glared at summer and didn't scold him. It's a bit unusual. Of course, it's probably too late now. Qiao feng'er is afraid that her voice will disturb Qiao Xiaoqiao upstairs, because Qiao Xiaoqiao has already fallen asleep.

This villa is very cold tonight. The goblin and Princess SAMA are not here. Except for Qiao Xiaoqiao and Phoenix, there is only summer and Gu Hanshuang.

"I have to wait about an hour." Summer simply closed his eyes, lying on the sofa, with his current skill, even if so, he can still know the situation of everyone in the villa, so he knows that Qiao Fenger and Qiao huanger have gone to bed, but they haven't fallen asleep, he also knows that Qiao Xiaoqiao is sleeping very well at the moment, he knows better, Gu Hanshuang still needs to work for about an hour to make her body's golden elixir Completely stable, then, she will become a real golden elixir, and really step into the door of cultivating immortals.

Waiting is a very boring thing. Waiting in summer, he enters a state of half asleep and half awake. I don't know how long it takes. He suddenly feels that there is movement around him. Then he subconsciously asks, "frost girl, have you made it?"

"Honey, it's me." A soft voice is heard in summer.

Finally, I'm glad to see Qiao Xiaoqiao in pajamas when I open my eyes and sit up straight in summer.

"Wife, aren't you asleep?" It's a little strange in summer, "Why are you getting up again?"

"I'm a little thirsty. Get up and drink some water. When I see you sleeping on the sofa, I'll come and have a look." Qiao Xiaoqiao's voice is very gentle, but with a trace of incomprehension in his eyes, "husband, why do you sleep on the sofa? It's not that there's no room here. Besides, you can go to my room to sleep. "

"I'm protecting the frost girl." Summer will not hide from Qiao Xiaoqiao naturally. After checking it out, Ning Shen said, "I used the fifth needle against the sky for Shuangya today. It will take about half an hour for her to make a real golden achievement. I want to watch it so as not to be disturbed."

"That's right." Qiao Xiaoqiao went to the sofa and sat down next to the summer. "My husband, sister Yunman called me and listened to her. How many days will you go away again?"

"Yes." Summer think of this immediately a little depressed, "fairy sister let me coax the dead woman of yeyumei to be a wife, I think this is really too difficult."

"The night is beautiful?" Qiao Xiaoqiao is also a little surprised.

"Yes, although the dead woman is very beautiful, and she did save fairy sister before, and fairy sister is also very good, but I always want to beat her, now fairy sister actually wants me to coax her." Summer listless said: "and that dead woman does not like me, I do not know what that dead woman likes, to coax her must be very troublesome, also do not know how long to coax her into a wife."

"Husband, don't worry. Without what you can't do, I believe you can do it quickly." Qiao Xiaoqiao encouraged summer, just finished, but couldn't control yawn.

"Wife, you look sleepy. Go to bed first." In summer, I look at Qiao Xiaoqiao, and then smile, "you're going to sleep well tonight. You may not be able to sleep tomorrow night."

Qiao Xiaoqiao didn't respond at the moment: "honey, what's up tomorrow night?"

"My wife, we went to church a few years ago to get married, but we haven't had a wedding. Tomorrow night is our wedding night." Summer said with a smile.

Qiao Xiaoqiao blushed a little and nodded softly: "well, honey, I'll go to sleep first."

Qiao Xiaoqiao quickly went upstairs again. In summer, he didn't stop it. It's not that he didn't want to come here tonight, but he still needs to take care of frost protection. Moreover, the most important reason is that it's already two o'clock in the morning. If we start to do it now, isn't it too short? He and Joe can't be in such a hurry.

Qiao Xiaoqiao was really sleepy, so she went upstairs not long ago, and immediately fell asleep again, and waited for a while. In summer, she got up and went upstairs and pushed the door into Gu Hanshan's room.

"Young master." Gu Hanshuang also opened her eyes at this time. Although it was in the night, although the lights inside were not open, her eyes still gave people a very bright and divine feeling. At this moment, she has become a real golden elixir, stepping into the real world of cultivating immortals!

"Frost girl, now I will give you extra reward." Summer came to the edge of the bed, a hand to her chest, flexible slide into the clothes.

Chapter 1933: You Are Responsible

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Oh? You really finished your homework?”

Pei Ge’s eyes were smiling as she looked into Ran Ran’s eyes. “Then, show me now. I want to see if you’ve really written it or if you’re just lying to me. Am I not strict enough with the three of you?”

“How could that be? Mommy, you’re the best person in the world. If you’re not strict enough with us, then who else in the world would be strict with us? Daddy has a cold face every day and doesn’t even want to smile at me. I’m so sad. I don’t know how Mommy can tolerate Daddy. If it were me, I wouldn’t want to find a husband like Daddy.”

Ran Ran finally managed to s.h.i.+ft the topic to Ji Ziming. At this moment, Ji Ziming, who was showering in the bathroom, suddenly sneezed. Needless to say, he knew that the three children at home might be talking about him.

“Ran Ran, aren’t you afraid that your daddy will find out if you say that? You have to know that your daddy is much worse than me.”

Pei Ge blinked and looked at the unwilling Ran Ran. “Do you want me to inform him? Let him see how his most precious daughter slanders him behind his back. Look at you, little la.s.s…”

“Don’t do that, Mommy. We should show mercy when possible. This is an ancient Chinese saying. Don’t do this, it’s not good.”

Ran Ran’s back was covered in a thin layer of sweat. If Ji Ziming knew that she was badmouthing him behind his back, the house would be turned upside down very quickly.

“Then quickly get up, get out of bed, wash up, and go downstairs for breakfast. I don’t have the patience to wait for you. Ran Ran, if you still don’t get up, I really want to see your homework.”

Of course, Pei Ge knew that Ran Ran did not do anything. The teachers her family hired for the three children were basically all driven away by Ran Ran. She had not even grown up yet she had already learned how to play tricks.

“Okay, Mommy. I understand. I’ll get up and get dressed now.”

Ran Ran blinked her eyes at Pei Ge and said, “Mommy, mommy, then quickly go out. I’ll go get dressed now. Quickly go get my brothers to get up.”

She could not let her mother target her alone. She had to find a way or else she would not be able to make Pei Ge leave her.

“Oh? What else do you want? My dearest daughter, you are…”

“Mommy, if you don’t go out, I’m going to look for Daddy.”

“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll go out now.”

Pei Ge coughed lightly. How could she not know what Ran Ran was up to?

“Then mommy, hurry up and leave.”

“Okay.”

Pei Ge nodded her head lightly and walked out of Ran Ran’s room. Standing at the door, she laughed softly. This la.s.s is trying to hide from her. Looks like she really had to teach her properly.

Ran Ran, of course, did not know what Pei Ge was thinking. She was only thinking about how to finish her one week’s worth of homework in these twenty five minutes.

In reality, Ran Ran did. When she was done with the last question, An An pushed open the door to her room. “Sister, why aren’t you downstairs for breakfast?”

“You scared me. Brother, quickly close the door. I just finished my homework.”

Ran Ran was shocked. She was afraid that Pei Ge would walk in and see her doing her homework. If that happened, Ran Ran would not be able to be lazy anymore.

“You… Didn’t I tell you to hurry up and finish your homework? You didn’t listen to me. Now that Mommy is here to check on your homework, you’re anxious, aren’t you?”

“How can I not be nervous? Dear brother, hurry up and go out. Don’t say that I’m doing my homework. I just finished it and the ink hasn’t dried yet.”

Ran Ran opened her workbook again and placed it under the sunlight.

“Okay, I’m going back. Remember to have breakfast.”

An An walked out and closed the door to Ran Ran’s room, but Pei Ge did not look for her immediately.

After leaving Ran Ran’s room in the morning, Pei Ge returned to Ji Ziming’s room and kept her pajamas by the balcony. She was about to hand them over to Auntie Zhang when Ji Ziming, who had just walked out of the bathroom, picked her up. “You came to find me so early. Did you miss me?”

Who misses you? h.e.l.l no. Anyway, Pei Ge did not.

“Stop fooling around. I just came in to get my clothes.”

“Why are you bringing clothes? Auntie Zhang is cleaning the house. You’re making breakfast and cleaning the room. Which CEO’s wife is like you? Can’t you rest well?”

Ji Ziming’s eyes were deep as he looked at Pei Ge. His voice was warm and infectious. When it blew past Pei Ge’s ears, it sounded even more alluring.

Pei Ge’s entire body went limp.

“I’m used to it, so if you ask me to stop now, I’ll feel even more bored.”

She tilted her head, not wanting to hear his seductive voice.

“Then get used to looking for me. I’m right here. You can use me however you want. How about this?”

“Ziming, I…”

Before she could finish speaking, she was thrown onto the bed by him. Her body suddenly sank into the soft bed and her entire body was pressed tightly against his.

“I don’t care. If you’re here for me, then you’ll have to be responsible. I don’t have any more exercise this morning, either. If you’re here, then the two of us can do some exercise together.”

Ji Ziming’s gaze was so deep that one could not see the bottom of it. As long as he looked into Pei Ge’s eyes, he seemed to be able to lose control of himself. His mind was filled with Pei Ge’s figure and the temptation that this woman brought him.

“Ziming, get up quickly. I just woke up the three children. I’ll…”

Before she could finish speaking, Ji Ziming pressed his lips tightly against hers, making it difficult for her to breathe. This woman was always like this. No matter what she wore or said, as long as they looked at each other, Ji Ziming seemed to have found many ways to be with her.

“Stop fooling around, Ziming.”

She reached out her slender hands and tried to resist, but there was nothing she could do. She could only let him hold her close as they removed their clothes swiftly.

A beautiful and peaceful morning exercise was filled with joy.

The sunlight and the temperature in the room rose together. It was as beautiful as honey.

1220 Chapter 8 Jiu Wei Love Story

But somehow this boy's face resembled Mian Xiang instead of Ge Lifen making him looked graceful instead of bulky or cool. Still, he would be a super handsome man once he grew up, that's for sure.

"Mian Xiang is really a mother now, huh…" Jiu Wei whispered to Li s.h.i.+ Ying with somehow a complicated expression on his face. He squatted down like the other two but he would sometimes tip-toed a little seemingly trying to look for someone.

This behaviour caught Li s.h.i.+ Ying's eyes. The girl couldn't help but poke Jiu Wei's cheek again while asking. "What are you doing? You look anxious. So what is Mian Xiang already have children?" This time, Li s.h.i.+ Ying tilted her head in confusion.

"Don't tell me...you are jealous since you don't even have a girlfriend yet?"

Li s.h.i.+ Ying snickered intending to tease Jiu Wei but she didn't think it would hit the man right to his heart. Jiu Wei suddenly flinched when Li s.h.i.+ Ying said so making his whole body froze for a brief second.

"N-no I'm not jealous or anything…"

Jiu Wei shook his head refusing to admit that what the girl said is actually true. The man turned his head around with a hint of blush on his cheek.

Ahhh he's clearly embarra.s.sed.

"Sure, sure, you're not jealous. Why not find a girlfriend now? I think Baihu Sei is a good match for you-" Li s.h.i.+ Ying had just about to finish her words when she saw Baihu Sei appeared from behind Mian Xiang while holding the hand of an 8 years old girl.

!!

"That's Baihu Sei! Jiu Wei, look, look!" Li s.h.i.+ Ying grabbed Jiu Wei sleeve and pointed her finger to that direction. Her ponytail swayed as she excitedly told Jiu Wei about who she saw.

That's Baihu Sei and she's holding a little girl! The girl is wearing a cape with a hoodie so she couldn't see her face clearly but since Baihu Sei is with her...that girl should be her daughter?

Jiu Wei looked at Baihu Sei direction and upon seeing the little girl, somehow his heart ached. He found it difficult to breathe and a surge of emotion hit his chest. It felt heavy and..irritating at the same time.

"That's...her daughter?" The man asked in a low, threatening voice that he himself didn't realize it.

Li s.h.i.+ Ying didn't think much and thought that the little girl might be Baihu Sei's daughter. After all, Mian Xiang already had 3 boys how could she have another daughter? Thinking like this, the girl nodded her head while answering.

"Yes, I think so. I can't see the little girl's face but since Sei is holding her hand...it should be her daughter?" Li s.h.i.+ Ying shrugged her shoulder casually as she turned to look at Jiu Wei.

She thought that Jiu Wei would also be happy for that girl but who knows when she saw his face, it was so dark that she thought he's angry at the moment.

!!

"Jiu...Wei..? You look angry….what's wrong?" Li s.h.i.+ Ying averted her eyes trying not to see Jiu Wei's angry face which she saw for the first time. The girl still tugged on Jiu Wei's sleeve while asking though.

"...nothing. We have seen them enough, let's go"

The man suddenly stood up and left the place without looking back anymore, making Li s.h.i.+ Ying startled beyond relief. The girl also hurriedly stood up before dragging Long Ao Zhen who was still squatting down, to follow her.

"What's wrong with Jiu Wei??" Li s.h.i.+ Ying was half-shouting as she fastened her speed to catch up with Jiu Wei. She really didn't understand what is that guy doing just now and why she seemed angry.

"You ask me?" Long Ao Zhen subconsciously rolled his eyes as an answer to Li s.h.i.+ Ying's question. How could he know ah? He's just an innocent bystander! He isn't that excited to meet those beasts. He only wanted to see his children and maybe...Mao Mao.

So why would he pay attention to whatever happened around that Gryphon and the others??

"Jiu Wei...he looks angry. I don't know what's wrong with him!" Li s.h.i.+ Ying bit her lips as she told what she was thinking just now. The girl looked worried for a second before she turned to look at Long Ao Zhen abruptly.

"Is he...jealous again?" Li s.h.i.+ Ying raised one of her eyebrows in confusion. The girl seeks an answer from her husband since he's the only one she could ask but a pity, her husband is as clueless as her.

"...dear wife, I don't even pay attention to what happened earlier," Long Ao Zhen let out a big sigh. "So, how can I know what's wrong with Jiu Wei?"

Long Ao Zhen confessed the truth. He really wasn't paying attention to anyone and just squatted there unmoving. How could he answer this question??

Hearing what Long Ao Zhen said, Li s.h.i.+ Ying stomped her feet angrily. "You!! Ughhh, forget it!" She slapped away Long Ao Zhen's hand on her wrist before das.h.i.+ng toward Jiu Wei to check on his condition.

Her husband is a dummy! Idiot! Not sensible! She's worried about Jiu Wei okay??

Long Ao Zhen: ? wut?

"Wifey!! Wait, wait!!" Long Ao Zhen snapped out of his daze being left alone by his dear wife and hurriedly ran to chase after her. Why the h.e.l.l he's at wrong when Jiu Wei is the problem here??

789 Chapter 789 “Exchange“

An hour later…

"This is the Pink Sand country. As you can see, the sand here is pink and that is why this country became the most favourite tourist destination. If they come to the desert continent," Mian Xiang explained as she pointed her finger outside the window to show Li s.h.i.+ Ying the Pink Sand country that they were heading to.

"The sand is really pink…" Li s.h.i.+ Ying's eyes widened with shock when she saw the huge area filled with only pink sand, not far from their place. So that's the Pink Sand Country. Looks really beautiful for a honeymoon.

The building too...a lot of them used white stone or blue paint, giving off a really cute vibe for a country in the middle of this vast desert. Such a unique country, no wonder it became the top tourist choice to go on holiday at in this desert continent.

"This country is famous for its love charm. Every couple that goes here and takes a pink sand bath in front of my statue will last forever. A married couple will have children soon and they will live happily ever after," Mian Xiang whispered to Li s.h.i.+ Ying with a subtle smirk on her face.

She was so kind as to tell his princess about this right? Princess should use this to make her relations.h.i.+p with that dragon last forever.

"S-sand bathing? You mean...taking a bath with sand? And we have to do it together?" Li s.h.i.+ Ying face turned red again when she heard what Mian Xiang told her. She had a feeling that this country was indeed suitable for couples and married people, but to actually have such a legend too…

What a good marketing strategy!

"You only need to be naked together and dip yourself inside a bathtub filled with pink sand. The bathtub is located in front of my statue and every couple will only have 5 minutes to do this ritual, since there are a lot of other tourists waiting to try the legend."

Mian Xiang giggled seeing Li s.h.i.+ Ying's innocent reaction. Don't tell her these two hadn't done it? But she was sure these two had done more than just kissing….

"W-why in front of your statue?" Li s.h.i.+ Ying tried to divert the conversation when she heard that both people had to go naked. There's no way she would do this. Never!

"Because, even though people feared me, they also think of me as the guardian of the desert continent, like their G.o.d or something, that's why they placed the bathtub in front of my statue as to get my blessing or something."

Mian Xiang shrugged her shoulder as she looked outside the window to see the bustling street inside the country. Since the whole place looked cute with white, blue and pink colour somehow she felt uncomfortable. She never liked anything too girly like this, but she can't help it.

That thief went here after all!

"I see...so where's the cactus? It should be in this town right?" Li s.h.i.+ Ying rubbed her chin and after making sure she could change the topic, the girl hurriedly asked about the cactus. She cared more about the cactus than anything right now. Let's forget about the legend for a second and get the cactus first.

"Yes it is in this town and I sensed the cactus at a certain inn. This inn is located very far from this place...it is at the very corner of the town, we will arrive there at night. It's a coincidence that the bathtub in the legend I told you about is right next to the inn."

Mian Xiang couldn't help but furrow her eyebrows as she said this. Somehow, she had a bad feeling, but she didn't know what. She had to protect her princess no matter what the cost. Their enemy this time might be stronger than they thought!

"Okay, we can immediately ambush the thief when we arrive at the inn," Li s.h.i.+ Ying nodded her head as she took a glance at Long Ao Zhen who appeared to be sleeping. Maybe the man was preserving his energy for the battle tonight, but why he was frowning in his sleep?

The man also sweats a lot as if he got a nightmare...well she hoped Long Ao Zhen would be alright.

Inside Long Ao Zhen's mind.

"You! What are you doing inside my mind? How the h.e.l.l you get in?" Long Ao Zhen shouted at the girl who suddenly entered his subconscious mind just recently. He was so shocked that his mind was invaded, but he was more shocked to see who the h.e.l.l dares to do so.

It was none other than Meng Yue Ming!

"Well, I have my own way. Let's not waste time with the chit chat I'm here to offer you an exchange," Chi Tian giggled as she approached Long Ao Zhen with a light step. The girl didn't really enter Long Ao Zhen's mind. It was only a part of her spirit.

Of course, she could do this thanks to the AI's help in exchange for another point deducted. Still, it's worth it!

"State your business or I'll expel you out from my mind," Long Ao Zhen gritted his teeth and tried to threaten the girl, but its a pity he couldn't do anything to chase away the girl since she was just in the form of a spirit.

Just how the h.e.l.l this girl do this, and for what purpose? Whatever it is...it won't be good!

Chapter 1316: The Mountain Summit is Quiet, the Foot of the Mountain is Madness

Fangzheng ran as fast as he could. w.a.n.g Yougui roared, “Fangzheng, stop right there! Take this!”

…

In the end, the two of them sat down and chatted.

w.a.n.g Yougui shared his thoughts.

Fangzheng said, “You can deal with the Frost Bamboo at the foot of the mountain yourselves. However, This Penniless Monk does not plan on selling the Frost Bamboo on the mountain.”

w.a.n.g Yougui asked, “Not at all?”

Fangzheng shook his head and said, “Patron, in fact, ordinary Frost Bamboo tea isn’t any worse than other good tea. Ours are truly pure, natural, and uncontaminated tea. Furthermore, it’s rare Frost Bamboo tea. As for the ones on the mountain, This Penniless Monk does not plan on selling them. In the future, This Penniless Monk will just keep it for himself.”

Although w.a.n.g Yougui felt a little disappointed, he eventually gave up.

Seeing w.a.n.g Yougui leave, Fangzheng felt as though he saw a huge stack of cash leave him. His tears were about to fall. His heart ached!

Fangzheng’s heart ached at the thought of money.

Finally, after closing the monastery’s door in the evening, Fangzheng roared, “Let’s go. Let’s open the box to check on the money!”

Therefore, Fangzheng led a group of disciples and came to the front yard in a valiant and spirited manner. First, he checked the money that was thrown at Salted Fish daily. Since he had not collected it for some time, the money had formed a small mountain pile.

However, with Red Boy’s Dharma spells protecting it, the money wasn’t affected by the humidity or destroyed despite being left out here for so long.

Fangzheng took his disciples and carefully searched the area three times. Only after confirming that there was not a single coin left did he take the money to the backyard.

Fangzheng smiled when he counted it. There was a total of 18,000 yuan!

“Haha… System, is the money that isn’t thrown into the Merit Box mine?” Fangzheng smiled smugly.

“Heh heh… If it’s not thrown into the Merit Box, it wouldn’t be your money. Have you forgotten the rules? You can’t accept money from other sources,” said the System lightly.

Fangzheng’s smile froze when he heard that. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, “You are ruthless!”

Then, Fangzheng handed the money to Red Boy. “Put it in the Merit Box!”

“Uh, Master, why is that?” Red Boy was dumbfounded.

However, with Fangzheng looking like he was about to eat him up, he obediently stuffed the money into the Merit Box.

Fangzheng looked at the Merit Box and then looked at the time. There were still twenty days left until the lunar new year. Finally, he resisted the urge to open the box to check on the money.

However, he was extremely disgusted by the System. He closed the door and returned to his room to sleep.

In the next two days, Fangzheng continued squatting in the Frost Bamboo forest to carve his Frost Bamboo. Everything seemed to return to its peaceful days.

However, the world was getting more and more lively.

The Chinese and America’s allies discussed a few times, but nothing came out of it.

America requested for sky-high prices and broke many international rules. In the end, even its allies couldn’t bear to watch any longer. Many used their media to criticize them…

Even so, America refused to let China off unless it obtained something beneficial.

Especially at yesterday’s negotiation, America actually allowed China to export tea leaves to them. Top tea also had to be made available for purchase at a maximum price of three times higher than common tea leaves!

At the start, the Chinese negotiation party was stunned by the sudden request from America. However, they immediately snapped back to their senses. No matter why they raised this request, it was definitely unreasonable. Hence, they stalled for time to better understand the reason why.

Then, after finding out what was going on, they directly said to America, “Dream on!”

Hence, America claimed that China would regret it…

China could not be bothered with them.

The two nations spat at each other, allowing for plenty of discussion at the dinner table. However, there were still some who were worried. Although it wasn’t clear if they were really worried or faking it.

At that moment, Fangzheng continued his carving.

“Master, you have already carved so many armor pieces. How many are you planning to carve?” Monkey asked out of curiosity.

Fangzheng thought for a moment and said, “There are some that are done. There are some that aren’t satisfactory. Therefore, few are actually satisfactory despite the numbers.”

“Uh, Master, don’t you say that the seven to eight pieces on my right are ones you are satisfied with…” Monkey pointed at the few lonely ones on the right. He originally thought that Fangzheng had casually thrown them away.

Fangzheng nodded slightly. “Yes.”

Monkey covered his face and said, “This… The two piles seem similar.”

Fangzheng shook his head. “If I’m making it, I want perfection. Otherwise, I’d rather not do it.”

“Then what should we do with these unwanted ones?” asked Monkey.

Fangzheng said, “Leave them for now. Once I’m done, I’ll take it down and give it to Patron w.a.n.g Yougui. It should be able to sell for quite a bit of money.”

Monkey said, “Can’t we sell it ourselves?”

Fangzheng sighed and did not say a word. His heart was bleeding. He wanted to!

After Monkey left, Fangzheng looked at the flawed piece of armor in his hand. He frowned and mumbled. “Indeed, I can’t have people disturbing me. Otherwise, the error rate would be too high.”

Therefore, Fangzheng made a sign with the words: “Do Not Disturb!”

Then, Fangzheng hung the signboard outside. When Monkey returned. Fangzheng directly told him, “Don’t come without me summoning you. I’m preparing to enter seclusion and quietly gain Zen enlightenment!”

“Master, can we not make such lofty claims? Aren’t you just carving armor?” Monkey said disapprovingly.

Fangzheng rolled his eyes at him. “What do you know? Zen is everywhere in life. As long as one puts his mind to it, it’s possible to gain enlightenment. As the ancients say: there’s always something to learn from others. Regardless of who it is, there will always be something you can learn from them, much less something like Zen carvings.”

Monkey nodded as though he understood something. He bade farewell.

With this signboard and warning, Fangzheng’s tiny world became completely silent.

Taking a deep breath, Fangzheng held his breath and focused. He slowly closed his eyes.

For a moment, it was as if the entire world had fallen silent. All that could be heard was the sound of rustling bamboo leaves, the chirping of birds and the wind…

It was the pulse of nature. He listened carefully and carefully tried to take it in. The frustration in Fangzheng’s heart began to vanish before it turned still.

The moment Fangzheng landed the carving knife again, he fell silent. The knife in his hand lacked his usual impetuousness and deliberateness, but had an additional natural charm.

However, he wasn’t fast. As he carved down repeatedly, it was as if he was using the rhythm of nature. It was beautiful and pleasant to the ears.

Fangzheng was at peace, but One Finger Village was about to go crazy.

There was a deafening sound of engines as a convoy of hummers entered One Finger Village!

When w.a.n.g Yougui heard this, he immediately rushed out to check on the situation. The moment he came out, he saw the men in suits and sungla.s.ses! They looked like they came from the triads…

w.a.n.g Yougui subconsciously took out his cell phone and prepared to call the police. He thought to himself, “Has some triad boss taken a fancy to our profits? He’s really gutsy. He even dares to target us!”

Chapter 578: Pretty interesting

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Li Du helped Alicia get up and asked in a puzzled tone, "Gemstone pit? What's that?"

Brendan was just about to open his mouth, before Alicia gave him a punch and angrily said, "Are you trying to get us killed? Why did you let go of the handle?"

Although he had taken a beating, Brendan was not angry at all. He and his cousin Stephen were very much alike in this aspect. They had the characteristic of a yes-man.

Facing his angry wife, he forced a smile and said, "I got too excited. We should hurry to the gemstone pit or else there will be nothing left if we are late."

"Gemstone pit?" Sophie asked. "What's that? Are there a lot of gemstones?"

Li Du shook his head. "Yes and no. An "opal gemstone pit" refers to an area with a lot of boulder opals."

All natural mineral gemstones were derived from silicon dioxide. The reason for the formation of opals could be found approximately one billion years ago, in some regions where there were extremely high temperatures, due to a volcanic eruption or the impact of a meteorite. The high temperatures then melted the rocks into pure silicon dioxide.

The silicon dioxide, which was melted into liquid form, then flowed like magma into the crevices in the ground and empty mineral areas, where they were deposited.

Generally speaking, such depositions were only effective at around 400 feet deep from the earth's surface. Approximately every five million years, deposited sediments would add a centimeter of thickness, causing the silicon dioxide to slowly coagulate together.

Within the one to two million year period after that phase, the deposited sediments had slowly solidified as the weather changed. Opals and the deposited sediments had not bonded together. After yet another long period of time, only a part of the silicon dioxide was solidified.

While the silicon dioxide solidified, some of it might not be able to separate from the surrounding rocks and possibly fuse with the rocks or dust.

Under such conditions, boulder opals were formed. Boulder opals referred to opals that were fused together with rocks to form a single ent.i.ty. When dug up, they referred to the rocks that encased an opal and also rocks with opals embedded in them.

Of course, there were also many other reasons for opals to have such beautiful shapes and patterns. The reasons involved a very complex physical process, which Li Du had only managed to comprehend after much difficulty.

He gained the knowledge of both gemstone pits and boulder opals while he learned the information regarding their formation.

The conditions for the formation of boulder opal were different to those of pure opal. Nearly all of the liquid silicon dioxide came into contact with surrounding rocks during the flowing and solidifying process.

However, only a part of it formed boulder opals, while most of it still formed pure opals. A complex physical process was also involved in this.

It was during the physical process that the difference between boulder opal and pure opal emerged. Pure opals were usually found alone, whereas boulder opals were found in large quant.i.ties.

Compared to pure opal, the prices of boulder opal were slightly lower as it was usually fused together with some ugly-looking rocks.

If a gemstone was ugly, it was not worth a single cent.

However, with the advancements in modern science and technology, the value of boulder opal had increased.

Some machines were capable of grinding away the external layer of rock from a boulder opal, hence revealing the opal inside. There were also machines that could sculpt the layer of rock into valuable patterns.

With the two methods, the value of a boulder opal could increase by ten fold. This was especially so for the latter method, as opals themselves were very valuable. Hence, when people bought them, they would not be willing to grind them and would keep them in their original states.

But, it was different when there was a layer of rock as the rock was not valuable and so could be sculpted at will.

Li Du had heard in the news that this kind of boulder opal was rather popular in the market.

He had seen a small horse whose body was opal, and its head, tail, and limbs were sculpted from the rock layer. He had also seen a hawk whose pair of wings were opal, while its body was carved from the rock layer.

Hearing the news from Brendan got Li Du rather excited.

Since the gemstone pit had been discovered by someone else, it belonged to them and Li Du had no way to profit from it.

However, having the opportunity to widen his horizons was also good. Also, gemstone pits were rarer than pure opals, where finding at least one every year was unlikely.

Besides, it wasn't like there was absolutely nothing to gain from it.

Seeing Li Du express an interest in viewing the pit, Brendan waved and said, "Let's go and have a look. Maybe we'll be lucky enough to dig one up?"

A gemstone pit was not limited to a small area, and instead spanned a considerable area containing boulder opals. The area could be one hectare and one square mile, or even ten square miles.

Despite that, from nature's perspective, a few hectares and a few square miles was very small.

Therefore, if someone found a gemstone pit, everyone would go over to try their luck as there was a very high chance to find boulder opals in the surrounding areas. This was where profits could be gained.

Li Du followed Brendan's motorcycle in his truck and rushed over to the pit.

In the end, the more he drove, the more puzzled he felt. Sophie, who leaned against the window, curiously asked, "Why is this stretch of road so familiar? Isn't this the place where we stayed for two days?"

Li Du also felt the same way. However, compared to the two days when they were here, the area of crushed rocks was much more lively. Dozens of people were gathered here, with some more rus.h.i.+ng over.

Brendan got off his motorcycle and beckoned to Li Du before anxiously wandering around the area.

At the barren land not far from here, several people were excitedly shouting.

"Oh, f*ck f*ck, I found a piece! Awesome, I found another piece!"

"Darn it, Steve is so lucky. He actually managed to find a gemstone pit. He's making so much money!"

"This b.a.s.t.a.r.d is becoming a millionaire, can't you see? They've already found hundreds of boulder opals. He's made a fortune!"

"Millionaire? Mate, he could be a multimillionaire! It's hundreds of boulder opals!"

Li Du rubbed his chin and looked with interest at the people who were enthusiastically discussing. He felt that something was amiss as judging from their words, the gemstone pit was in this area.

But, there was no boulder opal in this area. Maybe there might still be some gemstones, there was definitely no boulder opal. The little bug began sweeping through the entire area as though it were plowing a piece of land.

Where are all the boulder opals coming from? Where is the gemstone pit at?

Gemstone "pit" was just a name and did not literally mean a small pit. Even if the little bug had an oversight when searching the area, it was still not possible that it did not find a single boulder opal.

Despite that, boulder opals were undoubtedly appearing. In the crowd was a muscular man holding a gun and guarding a box in front of him, which contained boulder opals.

Under the sun's rays, the rocks and opals appeared as one. They radiated a strange glow, and together with the ebullience of the gem hunters, the atmosphere of the place became even more strange.

While Li Du was trying to comprehend the situation, he was dragged into it.

Noticing his silhouette, someone promptly pointed at him and shouted, "That's the Chinaman who rented this area before us."

Ye Lang nodded his head and said: “Yep, it’s all the same, I don’t know where I’m supposed to go anyways!”

 

“Then come with us. Right now, we just happen to be going to the Vermillion Bird Empire’s Fire Dragon City.” The big sister replied.

 

If Ye Lanyu and company were here right now, they would definitely stop Ye Lang from going off with strangers and getting kidnapped.

 

However, they were all absent, so Ye Lang very simply nodded and said: “Okay, this way is best!”

 

Just like this, Ye Lang was “kidnapped” by this unfamiliar big sister…

 

When Ye Lang followed the big sister to an inn where several drunkards were drinking wine, they suddenly leaped over and looked at Ye Lang like he was a fat lamb being brought to the slaughter and used a weird voice to shout:

 

“Sister Mandy, is this the new boss?”

 

These circ.u.mstances would very much cause people to think of one thing, this was a ploy!

 

“You guys- you guys wouldn’t be bad people would you! If you want money you can have it, but nothing else is up for grabs!” Ye Lang directly spouted out what was within his heart.

 

“…“ The big sister, that is to say sister Mandy, fell silent, and then with a dark expression, she started yelling at the drunkards: “You b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, don’t start drinking just because you have nothing to do, you have work to do! Take people’s money, help fix people’s problems! Also, remember, this is a little brother I just met. He’s traveling with us to the Fire Dragon city, not some boss!”

 

“Sorry to have shown you this, little brother, my subordinates are all these kinds of people, don’t misunderstand, they’re all mercenaries!” Sister Mandy hurriedly explained to Ye Lang. She had lost a lot of face.

 

“Ah, he’s not, judging by his clothes, he’s dressed like the prince of a n.o.ble family. How is he not a new boss you found while looking for extra income… *cough cough* right, we will go protect the boss…” Those people noticed that sister Mandy’s eyes were starting to burn with anger and immediately greased up their feet and ran away.

 

“Oh so you were all mercenaries, this is the best, I have people to protect me. When everything ends, I will definitely reward you.” Ye Lang understood now. So this big sister is in the mercenary business and right now she just happens to be going to the Fire Dragon city on business.

 

“Don’t listen to their blind talk, you’re just coming along for the ride, you don’t need to pay!” Sister Mandy hurriedly explained. She didn’t want Ye Lang to misunderstand her intentions as impure.

 

Towards words like these, Ye Lang’s reply, I’m sure many people can guess, were:

 

“No, if I can spend money, I definitely will. I am a prodigal son; Don’t worry about saving me money.” Ye Lang, as expected, didn’t let down everyone and continued to follow his goal of being prodigal.

 

“…” Sister Mandy had seen many prodigal sons before, but this was her first time seeing one so confident.

 

“It’s decided! Boss, give me the best room in the house… What? Somebody’s already living in it? Tell him to give it to me, sir, I have lots of money!&r

dquo; Ye Lang appeared to be trying to spend all the money in his pocket until he only had pocket lint left.

 

He already had no relation to the current Ye family, as long as he spent all the money on his person, he would reach rock bottom. That way he could fulfill his greatest wish: Waste away an entire family fortune, walk away with hands empty!

 

“…” Sister Mandy suddenly asked herself why she had found this youngster so likable. At this time, he was clearly doing very despicable things.

 

Under Ye Lang’s prodigal a.s.sault, the tenant of the number one room gave in and did so happily because he had benefitted more than he could have imagined.

 

“Boss, bring a bowl of shark fin soup to rinse my mouth with…” This was something Ye Lang would say at the 3 meals of the day, and every time he would really use shark fin soup to rinse his mouth and then place it to the side and not eat it.

 

“Sister Mandy, where did you find this kind of rich young master, does he have a grudge against money?” Looking at these events, the mercenaries started feeling apprehensive.

 

“Has a grudge? That’s not it, it should be said he doesn’t care about money at all. He’s treating it like toilet paper!” Another mercenary expressed it in vulgar terms.

 

“Right, big sis Mandy, you have to take a big payment from him. He’s going to spend it all anyways if you don’t take it, rather than let other people take his money, why don’t we take it!”

 

“Agreed!”

 

“Seconded!”

 

“…..”

 

“Stop blabbering, we are mercenaries, the most important thing is to abide by the terms of contract. Since I said we won’t take his money, we won’t!” Sister Mandy very firmly said. As a mercenary, she had a mercenary’s sense of ethics. Although she only led a little known small mercenary group, she still had principles.

 

But in reality, in her heart she was also feeling regretful. Why had she said those words at that time, if she hadn’t, she could’ve earned a lot of money. It looked like it would definitely be even more than her payment for the current job.

 

“Ai, what a shame, truly, what a shame…” A group of people sighed and shook their heads making a magnificent spectacle.

 

“It can’t be counted as a shame, at least throughout the journey, our food, clothing and other supplies will be of the highest quality, that’s comfortable enough!” Sister Mandy said.

 

“That’s true, this rich young master already bought it all, and it’s all the best quality too.” Everyone nodded and agreed.

 

“That’s the way! As people, you have to learn to be satisfied!” Sister Mandy rebuked them.

 

“Sister Mandy, you’re satisfied, you got to eat the delicacies he brought, but we didn’t!” Among the crowd, one gourmand ground his teeth and complained. It seemed he was unhappy that he didn’t get to eat what Ye Lang brought.

 

Everyone here knew that even though Ye Lang ordered from the menu, he would never eat it himself. He would only eat the food he had brought with him, only sister Mandy was lucky enough to eat that food, and she did so in front of everyone else, showing off.

 

In the end, Ye Lang was also very “generous” and gave out a little, but this was just a little, and only amounted to a sample. It was not enough for them to eat!

 

Ye Lang treasured this food greatly, as Zhen Xiaoyan had only prepared a year’s worth for him and it wasn’t enough for him alone…

 

Wait a second, currently, Zhen Xiaoyan was running away with him and didn’t go to the practice. That meant that she could make more food for him to eat later.

 

In reality, Ye Lang had already forgotten this point. He was still thinking that Zhen Xiaoyan wouldn’t be able to make food for him in the near future, so he cherished the food especially and was extra stingy with it…

 

Something made by others especially for him obviously had to be cherished. These were special feelings for him and couldn’t be shared with others, or the person gave him the feelings would definitely feel unhappy.

 

This was definitely the case, if Zhen Xiaoyan knew Ye Lang gave the food she slaved away to make for other people to eat, she would definitely throw a fit.

 

“If other people want to eat your food and don’t know how to cook for themselves, I can help them cook, but you definitely can’t let them eat what I make for you!”

 

That was what Zhen Xiaoyan said. In the past and in the future, as long as she found out Ye Lang gave away her food for others to eat, she would get angry and say words like those.

 

This wasn’t her being stingy, but her caring about Ye Lang very much!

 

Like this, Ye Lang was bit late, but he could be considered to have finally stepped on the route to Vermillion Bird Empire. As for Ye Lanyu and company, they were also currently heading towards Vermillion Bird Empire.

 

Both groups were headed towards Vermillion Bird Empire, but the chance of the two meeting was very very small. Not only was it an issue of time, but Ye Lang’s destination was random.

 

If the two groups were to happen to meet, then it could only be called a coincidence, a very coincidental coincidence!
