Chapter 698 Impersonate 10 ” (2/2)
“If you could please.” For the offer, she didn’t reject and kindly accepted it with a nod.
And then, without so much as another word, her figure was gone from the spot, leaving behind only a blurring afterimage in her wake.
“How did Yan’er move so fast? That’s not a speed an Earth Rank cultivator should have.” Despite his own doubts and astonishment, Zhongnan didn’t want to delay and tossed the dilemma aside.
The urgent task at hand was to help his precious disciple save someone important, the rest could wait until they are back.
……
More and more onlookers are beginning to gather around the river bank after news of the dragon’s capture.
For Ho Cui Cui who had always been a nosy person by nature, she of course couldn’t bear to miss out on such a huge event. Taking advantage of the guard’s lack of attention, the former chubby girl snuck out on her own again and came to the sight where she soon noticed a certain female. “Miss Huan Yin!”
Originally Huan Yin herself wanted to ignore the fraudster when she noticed the other side’s arrival, but to be called out in the open, it’s now impossible to pretend. Therefore, the only response was a faint nod to affirm the greeting.
Ignorant to the point of not seeing the lack of reception, Ho Cui Cui actually had the face to get all friendly despite the other side’s unwillingness to chat. “The evil dragon is finally caught, we can now get revenge for ourselves Miss Huan Yin, aren’t you happy?”
“Slaying the dragon for doing evil deeds is fine, but I fear this creature will face a fate worse than death while in Elder Muzhen’s hand.” Sighing at the thought, Huan Yin felt pity for the serpent that’s covered in a pool of blood right now.
As painful as it was for her heart, the girl herself knew this was how the world works. The strong eats the strong, it’s the ironclad rule of every living being.
And regarding this Ho Cui Cui’s claim about getting revenge for them both, Huan Yin wasn’t so sure about that. She may not have evidence yet but it’s just a matter of time before her father discovers the truth, that much the girl was certain.
With each tick of the clock, everyone grew increasingly more wary as they waited in silence around the river bank. But everything eventually comes to an end.
“Elder, we couldn’t find another dragon inside the river.” One of the members of the search group reports after surfacing.
