Chapter 452: I'm Serious
Chapter 452: I'm Serious
Kunlun City got busy searching for the person in the video over the next few days, while Xiang Ning took his time to digest the benefits he had received from the expedition. First, his rank was upgraded to Gold thanks to the excellent completeness of the mission, and also due to Bo Yans nudging. Of course, without breaking any rules.
He went to the commercial area to buy another twenty beast cores. Although the Devourer hungered for cores, its appetite had limits of about one every two days. And the beast cores of the Kunlun Mountains were of higher quality than Marsh and Hang Cities, too, containing much more concentrated energy. Over the past few days, the Devourer had grown stronger at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Xiang Ning felt that if the Devourer met the general of the Shura race now, it would definitely not chip off upon impact. One notable observation was that it was also slowly digesting the ax he had taken from the Shura general. That was also why he hadnt used it during the expedition.
Returning back to his hotel room, Xiang Ning studied the Devourer in his hand. It hadnt changed in terms of length, width, or thickness, but based on its shine and sharpness and the heaviness in his arm, he knew that it was growing.
He had a feeling that if he continued to feed it over another two weeks or so, it would become so heavy it wouldnt be suitable for battle. Right now, it was already a little too heavy to wield in battle, though it shouldnt be a problem with the Eight Gates technique.
He was about to feed it another beast core when someone knocked on the door. Come in. He put away the Devourer, stood up, and the door was opened. Xiang Ning glanced over. There was no one? Then, he looked down. Boss?
Hmmph, theres a girl named Ye Lingling looking for you downstairs. Shes been here two or three times while you were out.
Ye Lingling? Xiang Ning didnt notice the boss ladys resentful glare, all he did was grunt and follow her downstairs.
Xiang Ning! Ye Lingling looked delighted to see him. Xiang Ning, my mother woke up! I told her all about you and she wants you over at our house for dinner.
Seeing Ye Lingling blushing, the boss lady snickered and punched Xiang Nings thigh. Not bad, dude. Its only been a few days and you got yourself a girl.
Xiang Ning rolled his eyes. She wouldnt think that if she had seen Ye Linglings true face. But when he saw Ye Linglings smile, his brows knitted slightly, though he still nodded. Alright.
Ye Lingling thought Xiang Ning would have declined the offer and was ready to fight him about it, but his direct acceptance threw her off balance. It even made her panic a little.
But it all passed quickly.
Lets go. Xiang Ning wasted no time and let her lead the way.
They rode for fifteen minutes by bike until they reached a courtyard.
Xiang Ning didnt say anything when he saw their destination. He merely walked past the stuttering, hesitant Ye Lingling and immediately entered. Seeing him walk past her without any reservations or questions, Ye Linglings mouth was agape. She didnt end up speaking, only keeping her head down as she walked behind him.
Xiang Ning previously hadnt been sure before he arrived, but now that he was in the courtyard, he knew. He didnt blame Ye Lingling, for he knew the feeling.
The courtyard was gigantic, at least three to four thousand square meters. Within a city with limited space, this must have been very expensive. He stood in front of the house, looking at the person standing on the balcony. It was Ya Wen, the guy he had traumatized.
Hehe, I dont know if youre an idiot or you already know. Wasted the strong guy I planted at the door.
Heh, all I know is that youre asking for a beating again.
What?! All of the fear rushed back again, though it also triggered Ya Wens hatred for Xiang Ning.
Fury Points +999
Hehehe, you must be so mad for it to be nine hundred and ninety-nine. Xiang Ning looked at the furious Ya Wen while Ye Lingling was very confused.
Although Ya Wen didnt know what the number meant, he could sense the mockery in Xiang Ning's tone. When he was about to storm off, Xiang Ning waved. Dont waste my time, get Zhao Youlong out. Youre too weak for me.
Fuck you!
Dont you know any better insults? Xiang Ning scoffed, pursing his lips.
Ya Wen was speechless.
Alright, Ya Wen, go downstairs first. Zhao Youlong, who was watching in the house, facepalmed. He really didnt know what to say at this point. He had really wanted to let Ya Wen show off his skills, but it looked like his attitude wouldnt do.
Big Brother. Ya Wen wanted to say something but when he saw that Zhao Youlong had stepped out, he didnt say anything and retreated.
Clap-clap! Zhao Youlong wasted no time. He clapped twice and gun barrels peeked out of the windows and roof at the same time. More than ten strong cultivators surrounded Xiang Ning. Well, kid, we know each other already and so I wont waste my time. I only want you to sell the sweetsop to me, and Ill let her family go, Zhao Youlong grinned.
Zhao Youlong was rich, and he had no problems buying a sweetsop, but the problem was that there were none to be bought. He had initially thought Xiang Ning might put it up for auction and he could get the fruit there, but unfortunately, he heard no news about it after so many days.
If the benefits werent so great, Zhao Youlong definitely wouldnt voluntarily cause trouble, but the profits to be made were astronomical. Jerry Constructions! A strand of hair from Jerrys boss was worth more than his entire net worth. And it wasnt just money, he would gain status from it, too. After working with Jerry Constructions, it would be his springboard out of Kunlun City, and subsequently, he could even become an international titan.
Im sorry, I mailed it back to my hometown, said Xiang Ning, shrugging.
Hehe. Zhao Youlong looked at him. Do you think Im stupid?
To be honest, Xiang Ning was exasperated. Why doesnt anyone believe the truth?!
Lets not waste time. Deal or no deal? Zhao Youlongs patience was wearing thin.
I want to, but I really dont have it. Xiang Ning shrugged again.
Im serious. Dont make me do this. Zhao Youlong maliciously sneered.
Doge & Chacha's Thoughts
Hoho, looks like someone have a deathwish!
