Chapter 2370: Little Guy, What’s Your Name? (1/2)

Li Li and the others covered their mouths to reduce the sounds of their giggles after listening to Lin Xiaoying’s explanation.

“Thirteen!” Li Li tried calling Huang Xialong, and then laughed so hard that her shoulders were shaking.

The other three female disciples were trying hard not to laugh as they looked at Huang Xiaolong, as if they had discovered an interesting item.

Huang Xiaolong felt awkward being stared at by the four female disciples.

Wasn’t he being called Thirteen? Was it so funny?

“I don’t seem to remember admitting to be your little brother, right?” Huang Xiaolong questioned Lin Xiaoying.

Lin Xiaoying widened her eyes and shot him a fierce glare, “You are if I say you are. You got an opinion?!”

Huang Xiaolong was rendered speechless.

In the beginning, Huang Xiaolong had felt that Lin Xiaoying was quite cute, but after so many days of getting along, he had realized that Lin Xiaoying was indeed cute一a cute tigress!

Li Li and the others exchanged an astonished glance, seeing Lin Xiaoying’s spoiled behavior. Never had any of them seen this side of Senior Sister Lin Xiaoying.

The four of them couldn’t help taking a closer look at Huang Xiaolong.

Then again, no matter how they observe, they couldn’t tell what was so special about this Seventh Order Venerable Realm young man.

Their Senior Sister Lin Xiaoying’s goddess status in the eyes of various holy grounds’ Holy Princes was no secret. Not to mention, the numerous families’ young masters.

Randomly picking one of them would have more advantages than this young man.

They really could not see what motivated their Senior Sister Lin Xiaoying to accept this young man as her ‘little brother.’

Though it was said that Thirteen was her little brother, it was also clear to the four of them that there was no master-servant relationship between Thirteen and Lin Xiaoying.

Shortly after, the six people left the scene and went looking for a suitable place for Li Li and the others to heal their injuries.

While Li Li and others swallowed the Vitality Rejuvenating Pill and meditated to heal their injuries, Lin Xiaoying took out a jade fruit and tossed it at Huang Xiaolong. She pouted with her small mouth and asked, “Thirteen, who are you really? Which holy ground are you from?”

Huang Xiaolong caught the jade fruit firmly, smiling the entire time, “Are you really that curious?”

Lin Xiaoying harrumphed coldly, “Go away if you don’t want to tell me!”

She looked at Huang Xiaolong from head to toe with undisguised suspicion in her eyes, “I have a nagging feeling that you’re someone familiar, especially your eyes.”

Huang Xiaolong’s heart jumped to his throat. She won’t recognize me, right?

“Of course you’ve seen me before, don’t you remember that you first met me at the Profound City.” Huang Xiaolong responded half-jokingly to shift her attention.

Lin Xiaoying was deadly serious as she shook her head, “Not at the Profound City. I am talking about a time before the Profound City. It is likely that I’ve seen you before.” She leaned forward to get closer to Huang Xiaolong, muttering under her breath, “Strangely though, your current face shouldn’t be an illusion.”

This was the most baffling point to her. Had it been an illusion trick, she wouldn't have failed to differentiate it.

Huang Xiaolong grinned sheepishly and ‘admitted’ honestly, “Of course my face is not an illusion disguise.” Then he got up and left, leaving the words, “I’m going to walk around and see what good food I can find.”

His current facial features were definitely not an illusion disguise as he had merely changed his entire body’s skeletal build and muscle proportions.

“Don’t wander off too far, or I won’t have a way to save you!” Lin Xiaoying shouted after him.

“I know!” Came Huang Xiaolong’s reply from afar.

After leaving, Huang Xiaolong flew southward for several hours, and descended on a medium-sized mountain peak.

Looking at the opposite mountain, Huang Xiaolong suddenly punched at it, sending the mountain peak crumbling to the ground. A second later, a dark shadow shot out from the crumbling mountain and stopped in midair. This was none other than the holy beast class Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast!
