83.

Xue Bailing asked, ”What do you mean by that? You're not really looking for Liu Ming, are you?”

”Sooner or later.” Chu Ming picked up the scabbard and returned the four techniques to the scabbard.

”What do you mean sooner or later? Although Liu Ming is not on the Divine Wall List, I'm afraid that his strength is not much weaker than Dragon King's River. Furthermore, his scheming is extremely powerful, you can't win against him!” Xue Bailing looked at Chu Ming with a serious expression. She did not want to lose Chu Ming because of Liu Ming.

Chu Ming paused for a moment, then said, ”Don't worry, I don't plan on looking for him so early. I sent the message to him because I wanted to see how Liu Ming would react.”

”Are you speaking the truth?” Xue Bailing couldn't believe it.

Chu Ming smiled and said, ”I swear to the heavens.”

Xue Bailing bit his lips. Seeing that Chu Ming was serious, he thought for a moment and decided not to say anything more.

Chu Ming raised his head to look at the sky and laughed coldly.

What's the use of the heavens?

Six years ago, ”Heaven” was not in my eyes!

When the two of them returned to the Ji Shi hall, they coincidentally met Bian Jie walking over. When Ping Jie saw Chu Ming, he was overjoyed. He shouted from afar, ”Ming'er!”

Chu Ming saw Bian Jie and was very excited. He walked up to him and knelt down. ”Your son is unfilial and has come to see you.”

He could only say, ”Hurry up and get up, let him take a good look at you. I've missed you so much these past few months.”

Chu Ming quickly got up and smiled at Bian Jie. ”Your son also misses your foster father.”

”I've grown up quite a bit these past few months. Do you think the experience of the martial arts world is of any help to you?” Bian Jie looked at Chu Ming happily.

Chu Ming bitterly smiled and said, ”That's right, foster father, do you know about the matter regarding the Gu worm in Yangzhou city?”

Bian Jie looked at Xue Bailing and said, ”Ling'er has already told me, and I know the gist of it. This Shao Zhi really deserves to die. He actually did all these heinous things.”

Chu Ming nodded and said, ”That's right. It's all thanks to Brother Zi You, otherwise …” Chu Ming hadn't finished speaking when he thought of Zi You. He had nearly forgotten about this friend of his when he returned. Thus, he quickly changed his tone and said, ”Where did Zi You go?”

”He went with us to find you. After he found you, he said he still had some things to do, so he left first.”

”Oh.” Chu Ming replied. When he thought of Zi You, he unconsciously thought of the secrets behind him. For no reason at all, he shouldn't have risked his life to find trouble with Shao Zhi and Dugu Qi Ye.

Bian Jie looked at Chu Ming blankly and asked, ”What do you want to talk about tomorrow?”

”I was wondering why Zi You was looking for those two people's bad luck.” Chu Ming muttered.

”What?” Bian Jie didn't quite understand.

Chu Ming quickly waved his hand and said, ”Forget it, it's useless to talk about this. Foster father, take me to see the gold.”

”Yes, but it's been badly injured this time.” Bian Jie paused for a moment before he said, ”My body was bitten by an old crow and I bled profusely. I even got hit by a poison arrow on my wing. I'm afraid I won't be able to recover in a year or so.”

Chu Ming was shocked, ”Even my foster father said that. It seems like the damage to the gold is not light. I need to go take a look.”

Bian Jie nodded and led Chu Ming and Xue Bailing through several corridors to a house.

Chu Ming opened it and saw that the gold was still the same. It was 30 feet wide and occupied half of the room, and its body was also wrapped in a white cloth. There was even some blood on the cloth, and when the gold saw the light, it immediately became spirited. This divine beast that had been following him since the Fallen Phoenix Abyss six years ago had shed its glorious golden wings for him. What was left on its body were the white gauze that completely wrapped itself around its body, and he did not dare to look at the injuries underneath the white cloth. This was simply reminiscent of the wounds on Dugu Xian`er's back.

Chu Ming slowly walked up and held Gold's head. He gently touched it and said in a hoarse voice, ”Gold, gold, your master is useless and can't protect you.”

Hearing this, Jin squawked a few more times and nuzzled his head against Chu Ming's chest, as if to say don't mind it.

Chu Ming held Jin Yu's head and said, ”Every time I'm in danger, you'll be able to immediately come to my side. Ever since I left Fallen Phoenix Abyss, I've stopped playing around with you. I truly feel very sorry for you.”

Jin didn't cry out as he looked at Chu Ming.

Chu Ming smiled slightly and said, ”Once you've recovered, I'll definitely play with you. I'll sit on your back, and we'll take a tour around the world.”
