Chapter 858 - 856: The Plan Proceeds Smoothly
"This is Shi Xiaohong, from the Celestial Pill Sect, and the other two are also disciples of the Celestial Pill Sect, very powerful." Mo Shaoyun quickly introduced.
"Celestial Pill Sect? Isn’t that the legendary paradise for cultivators?" Hao Shuai’s eyes widened. He had heard of the Celestial Pill Sect, a place full of cultivators, and everyone who came out of there was a formidable person.
If these three in front of him really were from the Celestial Pill Sect, then he was lucky to have just saved his life.
"Is there any doubt? We are indeed disciples of the Celestial Pill Sect. Alright, Young Master Hao, today the three of us are in a good mood. Why don’t you treat us to a meal?" Shi Xiaohong shamelessly said, having just beaten someone up and now asking them to buy dinner, only he could do such a thing.
However, Hao Shuai was just this type of person, able to let things go. As long as it helped him achieve his goals, this bit of humiliation was nothing.
"No problem, I’ll treat. Young Master Mo, join us." Hao Shuai smiled as he spoke; although half of his face was swollen, he didn’t mind at all.
Shi Xiaohong saw Hao Shuai’s boldness, still grinning despite the circumstances and knew this person was not simple.
"Sorry, Young Master Hao, I’m back this time with some important matters to discuss with my father, so I can’t join you." Mo Shaoyun said honestly.
"Hehe, no worries, maybe another time." Hao Shuai was simply making conversation; whether Mo Shaoyun joined or not made no difference. He just wanted to take the opportunity to persuade the Celestial Pill Sect people to work for him.
Twenty minutes later, two luxury cars pulled into a five-star hotel parking lot. The four quickly reached the upper floor. After sitting down, Hao Shuai proactively handed the menu to Shi Xiaohong’s group with great respect, saying, "Feel free to order, I’m treating."
Shi Xiaohong nodded in satisfaction, and soon a table full of delicious dishes was served.
After everyone had their fill, Hao Shuai knew the time was ripe, so he said, "I apologize, today I was blind and offended the three of you from the Celestial Pill Sect. Here, I’ll continue with a toast to express my apologies."
Saying that, Hao Shuai tilted his head back and downed a large glass of wine in one go.
"Nice!"
Shi Xiaohong liked bold people like this, and his impression of Hao Shuai improved a bit.
"I wonder what brings the three of you to South Sea City? Is there any way I might be of assistance?" Hao Shuai asked deliberately to probe.
"Ah, don’t mention it. Not long ago, we wanted to teach a brat a lesson but were too careless and let him escape." Shi Xiaohong didn’t clarify the embarrassing situation, just mentioned Chen Tianlong escaped.
"Oh? What’s that guy’s name? Tell me and see if I know him."
"Chen Tianlong!"
"Ah? So it’s him."
Hearing this, Hao Shuai was also quite surprised. With so many experts from the Celestial Pill Sect, it shouldn’t be that they couldn’t defeat Chen Tianlong.
"You also know Chen Tianlong?" Shi Xiaohong saw Hao Shuai’s strong reaction and asked.
"Not just know him, I’m very familiar with him. He’s my nemesis." At this point, Hao Shuai suddenly thought of something and said, "Do you know, he has a girlfriend named Wu Mengting."
"Wu Mengting? Who’s that?"
Shi Xiaohong was bewildered; Chen Tianlong having a girlfriend was not surprising, but why mention her? Was Young Master Hao trying to set them up for fun?
"Haha, you may not know, she has quite a background. I heard her physique is special, called something like the Sponge Physique..."
"What!"
Hearing this, Lao Jiu showed a face full of surprise, others might not know, but Lao Jiu, as a more senior disciple of the Celestial Pill Sect, had heard of this kind of rare physique, particularly the Sponge Physique, which was very rare.
The Sect Leader had mentioned this physique could serve as one of the energy providers when opening a certain place, and it was a valuable aid for cultivation, something everyone desired to obtain.
"Young Master Hao, who else knows about this?"
Lao Jiu’s first reaction was to ask who else knew because this matter could be big. If too many people knew, taking away Wu Mengting now would stir up a hornet’s nest, attracting non-stop trouble, likely getting them wiped out before reaching the Celestial Pill Sect.
"No one, just me and you guys." Hao Shuai lied; he didn’t mention the Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall, fearing it would cause trouble.
"Phew, that’s good. Don’t tell anyone else, you understand?" Lao Jiu reminded once more.
"Okay, okay, I’m not really interested in cultivation, so it doesn’t matter to me. If you find it useful, deal with it as you see fit." Hao Shuai quickly expressed his stance to avoid suspicion.
Sure enough, Lao Jiu nodded in satisfaction.
At this moment, Hao Shuai suddenly said, "However, it might not be easy for you to capture her."
"Why? Catching someone is quite easy for the three of us." Shi Xiaohong said coolly, feeling confident about this.
"Haha, it’s not doubting your strength, but I mean to say, Wu Mengting is not in South Sea City. She went to Ice City with Chen Tianlong, left in the morning, and I’d guess they are on their way now." Hao Shuai finally guided the three into his plan.
"Oh? Ice City? What are they doing there?"
"I’m not clear on that, maybe took some girls for a trip, like sightseeing or something." As Hao Shuai said this, he changed the subject directly, "Alright, let’s have another drink; I have things to attend to and must leave first."
"Sure, let’s have a drink." Shi Xiaohong got the information he wanted, didn’t delay, and they all raised their glasses to drink.
On the road to Ice City.
It was already two in the afternoon, and everyone had been jolting in the car for four hours, feeling a bit tired. After chatting for a while, the three girls closed their eyes and began to sleep.
Chen Tianlong looked at the sleeping expressions of the three through the rearview mirror in the car and grinned.
There were only three hours left to reach Ouyang Manor. Ouyang Meijia had sent him a text, saying she had prepared dinner at home for them, urging them to come quickly.
Chen Tianlong was naturally pleased, unexpectedly, there were acquaintances to take care of them wherever they went, how wonderful.
In a blink, three hours passed, and the three girls in the car were awake, chatting. Chen Tianlong smiled wryly, they were indeed three women, a show was ongoing, chatting for two hours about clothes and cosmetics, and still going strong.
"Ladies, get ready, we’re about to arrive at Meijia’s, get ready." Looking at the imposing city walls ahead, Chen Tianlong knew they were near Ouyang Manor.
"Wow, this place is beautiful!" Shen Yan came here for the first time, when she saw the beautiful scenery outside, she immediately felt rejuvenated.
"Yes, when you reach Ice City, you’ll find it even more beautiful." Wu Mengting, like a tour guide, started telling the two girls about her Ice City trip.
