Chapter 835 - The Immortal Skeleton Is Gone (1/2)

Taoist Master Xuantian leaves in dejection.

No one knows what kind of agreement he has reached with Gao Ge.

However, there is one thing for sure. The reason Taoist Master Xuantian has stayed in Red Fish Village for such a long time is to wait for Gao Ge. Yet, after Gao Ge wakes up, he doesn’t seem to get any good news.

Gao Ge feels a bit embarrassed.

The Demon Quelling Seal’s being destroyed has nothing to do with him indeed but the Taoist conception did get into his body. If it were not for the powerful Taoist conception, it would be really difficult for him to reach the realm of Grand Master.

Therefore, it is the Demon Quelling Seal that facilitated his progress in cultivation.

However, Gao Ge will not tell Taoist Master Xuantian about it. Otherwise, the Celestial Master Sect would definitely make trouble for him. After all, Taoist Master Xuantian attaches so much importance to the Demon Quelling Seal.

Actually, the tomb under the sea in Red Fish Village is not surprising at all. Gao Ge has been there several times. Besides, the formation back then was not successfully made so there is nothing special about digging the tomb. Fire Dragon and the others stay here only in case of an accident.

“It is time for us to leave too,” Gao Ge says to Meng Jing.

“Yeah.” Meng Jing nods and looks a bit embarrassed.

After arriving at the airport, she suddenly says, “Gao Ge, since you are going to the capital, I will go to Jiangnan City first.”

Gao Ge is going to the capital simply because Lord Dragon King wants to meet him and he also wants to take Xia Lu back. After he came to Red Fish Village in Julang City, Xia Lu has been in the base of the Dragon Court in the capital for him.

After saying that, Meng Jing just keeps hanging her head. It seems that she doesn’t dare to meet Gao Ge’s gaze.

Gao Ge was a bit confused at first but upon seeing Meng Jing’s current reaction, he realizes why. His eyes are full of guilt.

He knows why Meng Jing doesn’t want to go to the capital with him. She is afraid that it will be awkward to meet Xia Lu.

This is all his fault.

“I’m sorry…”

Meng Jing immediately holds Gao Ge’s hand and says with a smile, “Why do you apologize? It was me who asked someone to call you so I knew about the matter. Besides, I have never meant to blame you or Xia Lu. Actually, I’ve been long prepared.”

Gao Ge believes she sincerely means what she said.

Anyone can tell that something is going on between Xia Lu and Gao Ge, except that it has never been laid bare.

Of course Meng Jing knows about it but she has never taken any action, which implies that Meng Jing has really been long prepared for this.

However, at the thought of meeting Xia Lu, Meng Jing suddenly shows the white feather.

“I haven’t figured out how I should face Xia Lu. I don’t even know what to say first when I meet her,” Meng Jing says with a bitter smile, “So, give me some more time. I believe that Xia Lu also hasn’t thought through what she should say to me now.”

Gao Ge says nothing.

“Okay? I’ll wait for you in Jiangnan City. What do you say?”

Faced with the imploration in Meng Jing’s eyes, how can Gao Ge force her to go to the capital together?

Moreover, Gao Ge can understand Meng Jing’s current thoughts.

After pondering briefly for a while, he immediately nods.

“Okay, deal then. Remember to contact me after you return to Jiangnan City.”

“Okay!” As Gao Ge agrees to her request, Meng Jing puts on a happy look and also feels relieved as if a burden were lifted off her heart.

…

On the plane towards the capital, Gao Ge sits by the window with a patch over his eyes.

After three hours or so, the plane lands in the airport of the capital.

The moment he walks out of the airport, he hears a familiar voice.

“Gao Ge, here!”

Xia Lu waves at him with her face beaming with smiles. She is still looking behind Gao Ge as if searching for something.
