Chapter 856 Not Very Smart
In the dungeon.
Yue Xincheng holds Qingrou into his arms.
“Don’t be afraid. When Boss arrives, I will kill him first,” Yue Xincheng says fiercely.
Qingrou chuckles and says in a low voice, “Do you think I’m afraid?”
“You are not indeed.” Yue Xincheng laughs.
“By the way, did you really give him the map?”
“Yeah.” Yue Xincheng nods, “It’s not a big deal. If they cannot find it, I will go and find it then. If they do... Well. I suppose they cannot. As far as I think, Boss must be arriving soon.”
Qingrou raises her head. There seem to be stars hidden in her eyes.
“You are so confident.”
With a burst of laughter, Yue Xincheng doesn’t reply.
“Oh right, I’ve also got some information when I was outside. I heard that the opening ceremony of the Star Sect was about to be held.”
“The Star Sect?” Yue Xincheng is taken aback and then presses his lips together disdainfully, “It’s none of our business.”
“You are the deputy sovereign of the Star Sect,” Qingrou says with a sweet smile.
“Um? What is this Star Sect? How can it try to get involved with me? This is too much. It is literally riding the wave of my popularity. I cannot stand it. When I get out, I must talk to the people of the Star Sect. They cannot do this to me...”
Yue Xincheng cannot continue talking anymore.
He finds that Qingrou leaning against his arms is smiling more and more weirdly.
He immediately has sweat on his head.
“The Star Sect? The one in Jiangnan City?”
“Haha, you react quite fast!” Qingrou bursts out laughing.
Yue Xincheng smiles bitterly, “Don’t tell Boss about this. He will kick my ass for sure...” Despite that, even an idiot can tell that Yue Xincheng is actually quite touched.
...
A taxi stops at the gate.
Gao Ge and Xia Shengtang get out of the taxi and it just leaves.
“This is it?”
“Yeah.” Xia Shengtang nods and then says, “Wait! Are you sure that we don’t need to make any preparations?”
“That’s not necessary,” Gao Ge says calmly.
Xia Shengtang laughs, “Mate, you are so full of yourself.”
Then, he says, “I’ve met the master of the Jin Family several times. Let’s go inside together and I will chat with him while you find a chance to run away and find Yue Xincheng.”
“Okay,” Gao Ge replies and then adds with embarrassment, “Thank you.”
“Never mind. After we go back, give me 1,000 spiritual jades. I know you have a lot,” Xia Shengtang says.
Gao Ge dithers over it and then asks in a low voice, “What about you waiting for me outside?”
The corner of Xia Shengtang’s mouth twitch, “Can you be a bit generous? You’ve got so many spiritual jades. Why can’t you give any to me? After all, I’m your brother-in-law. Do you think it right to be so stingy to me?”
“Yes.”
Xia Shengtang feels that what he has said is in vain.
“Haha. I was kidding. I will give you 2,000 when we go back!” Gao Ge says.
“Um?” Xia Shengtang looks at Gao Ge in disbelief as if he met Gao Ge for the first time.
“However, when you are done using them, you must return the used spiritual jades to me,” Gao Ge says.
Xia Shengtang nods and then suddenly realizes something. He stares at Gao Ge with his eyes wide open.
Seeing that Xia Shengtang wants to say something, Gao Ge waves his hand.
“I won’t admit it no matter what you say.”
Xia Shengtang grins and then says confidently, “It means that I guess it right.”
Gao Ge is noncommittal.
They walk to the gate. The iron gate that is three meters high stops them like a tiger blocking the way.
They look around through the iron fence. Gao Ge gasps. This manor of the Jin Family looks quite big, which causes a lot of trouble for him. Even though he has time to look for Yue Xincheng, it is still difficult to find Yue Xincheng in such a big manor.
“What’s the problem of the Jin Family? Why do they live in such a big house? Do they have too much money?” Gao Ge snaps angrily.
“Enough. The whole Star Sect is your territory. Is it smaller than this place?” Xia Shengtang says grumpily.
Gao Ge thinks about it and finds that Xia Shengtang is right.
“Who’s there?” When the two of them approach, several people come out of the cabin next to the gate and stand behind the gate, staring at Gao Ge and Xia Shengtang.
“Tell Jin that Xia Shengtang is here,” Xia Shengtang says.
“Jin?” The three of them look at each other in confusion.
“I mean your master.” Xia Shengtang heaves a sigh. The members of the Jin Family don’t look smart.
The three people of the Jin Family are all startled and instantly fly into a rage.
“Watch your mouth! How dare you call our master in this way?” A young man shouts with a red face.
Xia Shengtang stares at him and says, “Oh? How I should call him? Jin Changgui? Changgui? Gui?”
Gao Ge widens his eyes and stares at Xia Shengtang.
Dang.
Is the name of the master of the Jin Family so down-to-earth?
The three people are also astonished. Probably they have never seen this before.
“Enough. Don’t block the way here. Do I need to tear off your gate?” Xia Shengtang says.
“Humph. You’ve got some nerve! How can you deserve to know our master? Besides, do you have the guts to...”
Before he finishes talking, Xia Shengtang who is short-tempered has been impatient. He strikes a kick, causing the iron gate to directly fly away with a bang.
“You are such slowpokes. What are you doing? Waffling with me?” Xia Shengtang snorts.
“You... You...”
The three of them are also shocked.
“I’ve torn down your gate now. If you don’t go to get Jin Changgui here, believe it or not, I will rip off your heads then.” Xia Shengtang sneers.
Gao Ge standing aside only wants to give a shoutout to Xia Shengtang.
“You... Wait here!” One of them runs away and also tells the two others to watch Gao Ge and Xia Shengtang.
The two people left here look so depressed.
When Xia Shengtang kicks the gate down, the momentum exuding from him also causes much pressure on them. It is good enough for them to still stand here at the moment. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a difficult thing for the Qi given off by a cultivator at the realm of Grand Master to directly press them on the ground.
“Sir... Sir, would you like to come in and have a rest?” One of the two people points at the cabin aside and ventures to say.
Xia Shengtang pays no heed to him.
The man doesn’t feel embarrassed but sighs with relief.
In his eyes, it is great that Xia Shengtang pays no heed to him.
Shortly, the man who left before rushes here with a group of people.
“Second Young Master, it’s him!”
The middle-aged man walking in front is probably somewhere between 35 and 40 years of age. He is coming in a threatening manner.
“I want to see who dares to make a scene at the gate of the Jin Family!”
“This is the second son of Jin Changgui. He is also not smart,” Xia Shengtang says to Gao Ge aside.
Gao Ge nods and looks around, thinking about where Yue Xincheng is currently.
