Chapter 801 - 799: Hao Shuai Informs
"What? Are you sure you didn’t hear it wrong?" Shangguan Ba was somewhat surprised. This physique had been rumored about over a decade ago, but had never been discovered until now. Wu Mengting having this physique was truly unexpected.
"Yeah, it was Ye Feng who said it personally, and he secretly arranged for Chen Tianlong to protect Wu Mengting. I was wondering why, out of nowhere, the King of Assassins’ disciple would go to school, it’s really strange." Hao Shuai obviously understood it now too.
"Hiss..."
Hearing Hao Shuai’s words, Shangguan Ba took a deep breath. If this was true, then the martial world might see another blood-soaked battle for snatching again.
"Young Master Hao, besides you, does anyone else know about this?" Shangguan Ba was a shrewd person, knowing if others find out, it would undoubtedly spell disaster.
"No, after I found out about it, I came directly to the Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall without telling anyone." Hao Shuai wasn’t aware of the body’s power and didn’t spread it around.
"Very good, Young Master Xu, continue keeping this secret. As for Chen Tianlong, in a while, I’ll send my junior brother to visit him, rest assured, they will make a move, and Chen Tianlong will have to wait for death." Shangguan Ba said to reassure Hao Shuai.
Right now, he wasn’t overly concerned about Chen Tianlong’s problem but had shifted his focus to Wu Mengting. Once possessing Wu Mengting, it would be like having a cultivation artifact, never worrying about upgrading or breaking through.
The Sponge Physique can automatically absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and has a gathering effect. Once she’s done absorbing it, other cultivators can come close to her body to cultivate and absorb it.
"Alright then, Hall Master, I’ll head back now, have some matters at home." Hao Shuai, having successfully gathered reinforcements, considered his job done and planned to head home.
But after only taking a couple of steps, he heard Shangguan Ba say, "Young Master Xu, you must remember, the secret of Wu Mengting’s special physique, never tell anyone."
Hao Shuai was taken aback, seeing how serious Shangguan Ba was about this, it seemed like this special physique was very important.
Although he had overheard before that it promotes cultivation, Hao Shuai, being career-focused, wasn’t particularly interested in cultivation, so he hadn’t paid much attention.
Seeing Shangguan Ba so tense now, he became intrigued and planned to thoroughly understand the Sponge Physique after getting home.
"No problem, I promise." Hao Shuai nodded, then turned around and left.
Lin Family Mansion.
After settling Li Bingshuang in, Chen Tianlong drove towards the Lin Family. At this time, in the mansion, Lin Wushuang and Lu Xiaoyu were already prepared to go out.
This time, Lin Wushuang dressed herself up beautifully, wearing a white long dress that enhanced her elegance. With a light makeup, she exuded a fresh and refined aura.
"Wow, Wushuang, it feels like you’re going to a party or something?" Lu Xiaoyu was a bit taken aback. Weren’t they just going to have a meal with Chen Tianlong? Was it necessary to dress up so nicely?
"Oh, so what, can’t I?" Being teased by her best friend, Lin Wushuang immediately blushed.
"Hehe, of course you can. A woman dresses for her admirer after all, I understand." Lu Xiaoyu teased with a mischievous grin.
"Hmph, you understand nothing!" Lin Wushuang rolled her eyes at Lu Xiaoyu after being seen through.
"Haha, Wushuang, you’re really cute. Actually, you can just admit it, especially since Tianlong isn’t here. And no matter how pretty you dress, you need to take action. Why not just seduce him and push him down?"
"...."
Hearing this, Lin Wushuang was speechless. This friend was too naughty, she couldn’t take it.
Just at this moment, a figure appeared at the door. Looking up, they saw it was Chen Tianlong.
"Wow, Tianlong, we’ve been waiting for you to come back. Ever since you bought the house, you’ve been with Wu Mengting all the time, ignoring us big and little wives, it’s heartbreaking." Lu Xiaoyu was straightforward in her speech, making Chen Tianlong momentarily speechless, unsure if she was joking or doing it on purpose.
"Xiaoyu, are you asking for trouble? How many times do I have to tell you, stop talking about big and little wives. If you want to be Chen Tianlong’s little wife, go ahead, don’t drag me into it." The young lady was embarrassed to hear that, especially in front of Chen Tianlong.
"Wushuang, you’re not being fair. We agreed to stand together, now...."
"Xiaoyu, my lady, let’s go eat." Chen Tianlong cut in, seeing the tension between the two, trying to change the subject.
"Alright, let’s go for a feast." Lu Xiaoyu immediately perked up at the mention of food, grinning at Chen Tianlong as if everything before had vanished into thin air.
In no time, the three got into the Audi. At this time, Chen Tianlong began to ask, "Ladies, should we have seafood this time?"
"No, I’d like to try something different. There’s a place called Li’s Steak on West Street, how about we give it a shot?" Lin Wushuang suggested after thinking for a moment.
"No problem, what do you think, Xiaoyu?" Chen Tianlong was indifferent; to him, any place was the same.
"Haha, do you think Xiaoyu cares where we go? As long as there’s meat, she’s fine!" Lu Xiaoyu readily agreed with a carefree attitude.
Chen Tianlong smiled wryly, nodded, and drove the car towards West Street in East City, South Sea.
West Street was a relatively bustling street on the eastern part of South Sea City, on the edge of a drive to another city. Chen Tianlong rarely ate there as it was a 30-minute drive from both the Lin Family and the school.
Nonetheless, to let these two girls enjoy the food they liked, Chen Tianlong didn’t mind the time, as he had promised to accompany them.
However, as they left the Lin Family, a car suddenly appeared behind them. The driver wasn’t anyone else but the third senior brother of the Celestial Martial Sect, Xuan Yu.
Xuan Yu was truly displeased. Chen Tianlong was clearly a Yellow Dao six-star, yet back at the Celestial Wolf Headquarters, he’d fought Chen Tianlong for dozens of rounds to no avail, and Chen Tianlong even seemed to have the upper hand. It was hard for Xuan Yu to accept.
Crucially, his master had asked him to come down the mountain to avenge the junior brothers. Now that revenge wasn’t achieved, how could Xuan Yu face his master, Zhou Bin?
Therefore, Xuan Yu meticulously tracked Chen Tianlong’s car all the way to the West City.
Originally, Xuan Yu planned to intercept them on the way, but unexpectedly, on the highway, Chen Tianlong drove like a rocket, and Xuan Yu had no idea how the two girls in Chen Tianlong’s car could endure it.
Little did he know, Lin Wushuang and Lu Xiaoyu were already accustomed to Chen Tianlong’s fast driving. If he drove slower, it would feel odd to them.
In about twenty-five minutes, Chen Tianlong’s car arrived in West City, a couple of minutes earlier than expected, thanks to his speed.
"Wushuang, is this the place?" Chen Tianlong asked, glancing at the sign of Li’s Steak on the building.
"Yeah, on the third floor."
Lin Wushuang nodded.
Understanding her hint, Chen Tianlong smiled and led the two girls into the elevator. Just as the elevator was about to close, a familiar face appeared in Chen Tianlong’s view.
It’s him!
Why is he here?
Chen Tianlong wondered. Although Xuan Yu was strong, he wasn’t overwhelmingly powerful. However, in order for Chen Tianlong to match him, he’d have to give his all. Now, with two girls by his side, a fight would mean too many considerations, putting him at a disadvantage.
