Chapter 935: Li Lu, Is It You? (1/2)

Huang Xiaolong looked away from the main terrace, his gaze sweeping over the rest of the participants.

Soon, he saw Devil Son Mo Su amongst the participants, but when his gaze moved onto the figure clad in a white dress next to Mo Su, Huang Xiaolong trembled slightly. Excitement rose to his eyes.

Li Lu!

‘Is it Li Lu?!’

‘Yes, it’s her! It’s Li Lu!’

Although she was wearing a veil, Huang Xiaolong recognized her at a glance. This person could only be Li Lu.

Huang Xiaolong walked over to Li Lu in hurried steps.

It was obvious that she saw Huang Xiaolong walking towards herself. For a split second, there was panic in her beautiful eyes.

In a span of two to three breaths, Huang Xiaolong reached Li Lu, his eyes bright like stars fixed on her, “Li Lu, is it you?”

A second before this, Huang Xiaolong had thought that his past with Li Lu had faded into memories that were sealed away in the deepest parts of him, yet now, seeing her right in front of him again, Huang Xiaolong realized that she has always been on his mind.

“I’m sorry, you’ve got the wrong person.” Li Lu’s response to Huang Xiaolong seemed cold as she added: “I don’t know you.”

Huang Xiaolong was stupefied.

Although Li Lu hid it very well, the flash of agitation in the depth of her eyes was clearly captured by Huang Xiaolong. He was convinced that she recognized him.

She was lying!

That year, after he killed the Deities Templar’s Preceptor, Li Lu’s memories and consciousness should have recovered.

Mo Su interjected, his tone hostile, “Did you hear that, Huang Xiaolong? Miss Li Lu says she doesn’t know you! Quickly scram!”

After seeing Li Lu, Mo Su was completely conquered. Though his hundred over concubines were beautiful, they couldn't compare to Li Lu. In Mo Su’s heart and mind, she already belonged to him. Once he reined her in, she would be the empress of his harem.

Now, right in front of him, this Huang Xiaolong actually struck up a conversation with his woman, Mo Su was extremely upset. Naturally, if this was someone else instead of Huang Xiaolong, he would have killed the bastard with a punch.

Huang Xiaolong turned to Mo Su, looking at Mo Su with a chilling killing intent as he spoke in a low voice: “Get lost!”

Get lost!

Huang Xiaolong’s voice thundered, containing overwhelming murderous aura.

Other disciples all turned to look in Huang Xiaolong and Mo Su’s direction.

The anger in Mo Su’s heart spiraled into a frenzy. In his life, there were only times he told others to scram, and this, this Huang Xiaolong was telling him to get lost? In front of so many people?! His knuckles turned white from clenching his fists hard, devil qi surged around him, but the scene from two days ago when he was sent flying by Huang Xiaolong flashed in his mind.

The flashback was equivalent to icy cold water poured down Mo Su’s head, extinguishing his anger.

“Good, good!” Mo Su took a deep breath while glaring at Huang Xiaolong. He then fumed through gritted teeth, “Huang Xiaolong, I admit that you’re a tad stronger than me, but dare you compete with me in alchemy refining skills? Later, we’ll determine the winner according to our ranking in the semi-finals!”

Huang Xiaolong retorted, “In terms of strength, you’re inferior to me, and in pill concocting you’re even less qualified to compete with me.”

Mo Su laughed madly in anger, “You say I’m not qualified to compete in alchemy with you? I’m the first ranker of the preliminary round, whereas you, you’re number two! Don’t overestimate yourself, don’t you feel ashamed to say that I’m not qualified to compete with you? It’s you who isn't qualified!”

Huang Xiaolong scoffed, “Since you’re adamant to compete, let’s put our lives on the line!”

Betting their lives! Mo Su choked.

“Bet your life and mine. Whoever loses shall implode their godhead on the spot!” Huang Xiaolong coldly stated the terms.

Destroy their own godhead on the spot! Mo Su’s expression was getting uglier. Although he was confident that his alchemy refining skills were a level above Huang Xiaolong’s, he didn't have the guts to stake his life on it.
