Chapter 1571: Shouldn’t Lose Too Badly, Right? (2/2)
Li Lu’s face reddened as she retorted, “Who’s your woman?!”
Huang Xiaolong held her hands tightly and smiled, “Of course it’s you! Even my mother acknowledged you as her daughter-in-law!”
Li Lu felt a burst of sweetness in her heart. When she thought of Su Yan and the other members of the Huang Family, a melancholic light flashed through her eyes. “I wonder how Uncle and Auntie are doing in the lower planes?”
Huang Xiaolong sighed, “I wonder how my mother is doing...”
Xiao Fei, are you doing well in the lower planes?
Huang Xiaolong secretly wondered in his heart.
During his trip to the Floating Twilight Land, he had asked Jiang Hong if there were ways of bringing him back to the lower planes. However, Jiang Hong was helpless about this matter as well.
The lower planes were considered Mortal Worlds. Both Divine Worlds and Mortal Worlds had their rules and laws. Even an existence surpassing the Emperor Realm like Jiang Hong would be helpless in the face of the laws set by Heavens and Earth.
If Huang Xiaolong wanted to return to the lower planes, there was only one way. It was just as the little cow had said, he had to look for the Ancient Chaos Formation.
After the selections, Huang Xiaolong was planning to make a trip to the headquarters of the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce. With their connections and resources, there might be a chance for them to locate the lower planes’ envoy.
“What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about Xiao Fei, Uncle, and Auntie?” Li Lu gently asked when she saw that he was lost in thoughts. Huang Xiaolong nodded in response.
“Oh right, did Xuanxuan mention if her older brother will be back for the selections this time?” Huang Xiaolong suddenly asked.
Li Lu was startled, and shook her head, “She doesn’t know either. However, it’s unlikely that he’s coming back as there still isn’t news about him.”
Huang Xiaolong’s mood dipped a little when he heard the news.
He had originally thought that Fang Xuanxuan's older brother would be back in time to join the selections. However, from the looks of it, he wouldn’t be able to make it back in time.
It was a little strange as the Battle of the Heavenly Court was a major event...
Did he meet with some trouble when cultivating in the Hell Asura World?!
“Xuanxuan is actually very worried about her brother.” Li Lu continued, “Even though her older brother is quite strong, the Hell Asura World is chaotic and dangerous. Even an Emperor would think twice before entering. I really don’t understand why her brother chose that place!”
Huang Xiaolong’s heart shook. “Perhaps her brother is cultivating a unique skill that requires him to enter the Hell Asura World.”
Li Lu came to a realization, “That sounds reasonable!” She smiled and continued, “Didn’t you head over to the Floating Twilight Land to temper yourself?! Sometimes, I really don’t understand men’s thought process…”
The two of them continued chatting, and before they knew it, the first rays of daylight broke through the darkness of night.
Twenty days passed in a flash and the day of the selections was upon them.
Huang Xiaolong was consolidating his knowledge on formations when he saw Sun Shihai flying towards him. Looking at the cocky expression on Sun Shihai’s face, his face turned cold.
“Why are you here?” Huang Xiaolong’s voice was flat.
Sun Shihai chuckled, “Why does junior brother Huang seem to not welcome me? Oh, that’s right, tomorrow is the day of selection. After tomorrow, your Palace will belong to me.” He sauntered into the palace and nodded with every step he took. “Not bad, the spiritual qi here is a lot richer than that in my palace. I like it.”
“Is that really what you think?” Huang Xiaolong asked indifferently.
