C81 (1/2)
When he returned to his residence, Lin Qianyin saw that Lanyu was covered in sweat, so she boiled some water for her to soak in. When she finished bathing and left the small room, he discovered that the table was actually filled with delicious food.
After she picked up a pair of chopsticks, Lanyu was pleasantly surprised. ”Qiao Yin, you did this?”
With a gentle smile, Lin Qianyin said, ”I just casually cooked a few dishes and cooked some rice. I don't know if you like it or not.” As she spoke to here, a blush appeared on Lin Qianyin's cheeks.
”I didn't expect that you, the dignified young mistress of the Lin Clan, would be capable of cooking!” Lanyu said as she ate.
”Delicious!” Lanyu sighed in praise again.
As Lin Qianyin watched Lanyu eat, she gently smiled and said, ”Then eat more. I'll cook for you every day.”
And at this time, neither Lin Qianyin nor Lanyu noticed that Huangfu Xueruo was watching them through the gap in the second floor cover. Her expression was extremely ugly.
”Cooking? ”I know how to …”
Ten days later, all of Lanyu's accumulated training time on the outer space meteorite had been completely used up. He had been able to seamlessly switch between the two movement techniques in the three times gravity region, and his physical strength had also increased with his cultivation by a level. He was able to punch through an ordinary low grade spirit artifact with a single punch, and his cultivation had also successfully risen to the fourth level of martial arts master after completely absorbing the energy liquid.
Imperial City, Royal Manor.
Huangfu Xiong's mansion was located in the east side of the Imperial City and covered an area of over five hundred acres. Although it wasn't as big as the Imperial Guard City, as long as it was something that was owned by the Imperial Palace, it could be seen how luxurious it was.
In the great hall, Huangfu Xiong had sent all the servants away. Then, he looked at Hu Diechang, whose eyes were blazing and exuding a cold aura, and said, ”Silence. If you have anything you want to say, you can say it now.”
Ka-cha! *
The teacup in Hu Yan's hand broke into powder, and the tea water was frozen into a ball of ice by the cold Qi.
”To tell you the truth, Your Highness, I've come this time for a little bastard named Lanyu. I request that Your Highness help me get rid of him.” Hu Dian said in an eerie tone.
As the general of the Unpolished Jade Empire, he had a good relationship with Huangfu Xiong privately. He had failed to send people to assassinate Lanyu many times, and this had already made him extremely angry. Why was he so worried about the battle in front of him?
This time when he came to the Imperial City, he had still taken the time out of all his busy hours. He had to return after he finished with all these matters.
”Lanyu?” Are you talking about that Lan Yu from the Lan Clan in Qing Sha City? How could he have a grudge against you? ” Huangfu Xiong was stunned for a moment before he asked coldly.
Hu Dian's tone was filled with sorrow and killing intent, ”That little bastard killed my brother, then crippled one of my father's arms, and then actually dared to massacre my Hu family! If I don't take revenge for this, how can I let my brother's soul perish?! ”
Huangfu Xiong lightly tapped on the table and said: ”I didn't expect that little bastard to have such a great ability. He can even exterminate your Hu family? Don't worry, even if you didn't come looking for me, I would have still thought of a way to get rid of him! ”This little bastard, if I let him grow up, he will definitely become a huge threat to me in the future.”
”Oh? Your Highness actually has a grudge with that little bastard? ” Hu Dian was surprised.
Pondering for a moment, an obscure light flashed through his eyes. Huangfu Xiong waved his hand and said, ”Hmph, that little bastard actually dares to rob me of the things I want. He doesn't know the limits of heaven and earth, and you know my temper.
He didn't say anything and smiled. Huangfu Xiong said there were some inconsistencies between what he said and what he wanted to kill Lanyu with. However, he didn't dare ask. He got up, bowed, and said, ”My lord, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll go first.”
”Hmm, silent. You have sacrificed your life for the country with outstanding battle achievements. This King completely respects you. There will be some things in the future that This King will have to rely on you to accomplish.” Huangfu Xiong said meaningfully after sending Hu Yan out of the living room.
”Prince, don't worry. If you don't say anything, you'll definitely be able to help!”
Hu Changzai's voice was still reverberating in the air, but he had already left the main entrance and was nowhere to be seen.
Returning to the living room, Huangfu Xiong spoke as if he was speaking to the air, ”During this period of time, pay close attention to the Long family's movements. If the Long family does anything that goes against the rules, kill them without mercy!”
”Tsk tsk, you're afraid of a mere little trash like you? And you are still the prince! ” A sound that seemed to originate from another world came from the wall. The moment this sound was heard, the temperature of the surrounding air plummeted and a layer of frost covered the ground.
In his heart, Huangfu Xiong was furious and actually didn't dare to flare up. He gloomily said, ”There is a saying, 'Take precautions and you will be caught unawares'.”
At the edge of the strange forest.
”Lanyu, you really want to enter this strange forest?” There were even Class 3 Magical Beasts here, which was very dangerous! Even I do not dare to go deeper! ” Huangfu Xue gently said as she gazed at the vast and boundless forest that was suffused with a demonic aura.
Huangfu Xueluo's status was noble, and she had never lacked cultivation resources. Naturally, she did not want to enter the forest.
”Of course I'm going. You couldn't have been scared by the word 'strange', right?” Lanyu said as she spread out her hands.
All of the energy and liquid that he had refined from the Martial Emperor's arm bones had been used up. Lanyu now had to draw up a spirit swallowing array to increase her speed of cultivation. Naturally, she had to go into the strange forest to hunt down magical beasts.
”With the three of us combined, as long as we don't encounter too powerful magical beasts, we should be able to deal with them.” Lin Qianyin said.
She patted Huangfu Xue's shoulder and comforted, ”Don't worry. Those magical beasts won't be able to harm you with me around.”
