Chapter 172 Pagoda: 1st floor (1/2)
Mo Xie remained calm, he waited for Shang Ting to digest what he had said.
Still, he had little hope inside him that Shang Ting will accept him. After all, he's a lot older than Shang Ting, although he's a young man right now, his mental age already surpassed the ordinary by too far.
Shang Ting frowns, the center of her brows then arches up, her lips slightly opened as she looked at Mo Xie in a bewildering manner.
Mo Xie chuckles to himself; 'Right, who would even accept such an old man like me?'
Then Shang Ting opened her eyes widely like she entered enlightenment, she opened her left hand and hit it with the bottom of her hand: ”Ah! Then does that mean that my husband is blessed to have two lives?!”
Mo Xie looked at her in shock: ”You're not mad? Or even disgusted?”
Shang Ting looked at Mo Xie as she tilts her head: ”Why should I?”
Mo Xie hearing this felt weird: ”I'm really old?”
Shang Ting frowns: ”It's rebirth right? Reincarnation? Well, whatever it is, I may have had experienced something like that too, the only difference is... I never retained my past experience... And... I maybe even older than you, who knows if I'm older than you by millions, billions, or even gazillions of years...”
Shang Ting paused, she looked at the Pagoda and spoke: ”Then... Would you be disgusted by me?”
As she finished speaking, she looked at Mo Xie with a smile.
Mo Xie looked at Shang Ting for a few seconds before he chuckles: ”I would never.”
Shang Ting leans on her husband's shoulder: ”I'll never leave you, no matter what.”
Mo Xie felt gratitude deep inside, he nods his head as he held Shang Ting's hand: ”Should we go in?”
Shang Ting looked at the entrance, the experts are starting to destroy the stones with symbols on it.
Mo Xie smiled: ”Those trials are for untalented individuals, so you have nothing to worry about.”
”Umm... Okay.” Shang Ting nods her head as she followed Mo Xie's lead.
Meanwhile, Pang Choo So and the others started to use their skills in order to breakthrough.
”I'll allow all of you to enter inside, break this stone together with me!” Pang Choo So howls.
Every minute that passes by will be a huge disadvantage for them as the two that entered before them, Mo Tian and Mo Duan take all the treasures for themselves.
Pang Choo So, Ei Sen, and Lu Tang Ki have one final choice, it's to kill the twin and get their treasures.
But out of expectation, nobody helped Pang Choo So, and the other two.
”What are you all doing... Why aren't you helping?”
Meng Kou chuckles: ”Who would even help a person that tried to kill us and hoard the Pagoda all to himself earlier? Now that someone took advantage of you, wouldn't it better for us, who was supposed to take the leftovers and wait for them instead?”
Meng Kou then added: ”Go on, spend all of your Spiritual Energy and break that stone for us.”
There's a limit to how many items two people can get from the Pagoda, without connected information from the others, they would definitely not be able to solve the mystery and proceed to the upper floors, hence, they can wait and join later after Pang Choo So breaks the stone barrier. If that ever happened, they'll have an advance of unused Spiritual Energy over Pang Choo So's group.
Ei Sen frowns: ”Brother Pang, stop now.”
Pang Choo So is clearly irritated right now, hearing Ei Sen's words, he felt rage: ”Why should I stop, I can hoard all the treasures as soon as we break through this.”
This time, Lu Tang Ki spoke: ”Brother Pang, if we use our Spiritual Energy, we will have lesser power to defend ourselves from them.”
Like a fire splashed with cold water, Pang Choo So immediately cooled down: ”Meng Kou you bastard.”
Pang Choo So's rage immediately directed to Meng Kou: ”You sly fox, I should kill you immediately.”
Meng Kou chuckles: ”It's not that I'm stopping you or anything, you're always free to try.”
As Meng Kou finished speaking, his elite guards started to gather around him.
The two group's power clashes as it intensified, all those that gathered immediately scattered and made distance again.
