Uncle Lu and Xie Zhuolian communicate for a long time and they are finally on the same page.
After figuring out Uncle Lu’s worry, Xie Zhuolian chuckles.
“Uncle Lu, rest assured. I did make the offer to Gao Ge but he rejected it with determination. He didn’t give me any chance of persuasion.”
Uncle Lu would feel disappointed to hear so before this. After all, Gao Ge’s refusal means they fail the mission.
Now, the situation is different.
Uncle Lu feels so relieved to gain such a result. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know how to explain it to the Xie Family and Gao Ge. At that time, he and Xie Zhuolian will be really embarrassed. It is a good thing that Gao Ge’s stand is firm enough and he doesn’t have to face that kind of situation.
“Well, based on what you said, it seems that my family doesn’t want Gao Ge to join the Xie Family?” Xie Zhuolian asks.
She has seen Uncle Lu’s previous reaction. Of
When he meets Xie Zhuolian, Gao Ge finds that the master following her is gone. He is a bit curious and asks about it. Xie Zhuolian comes clean without any concealment. After hearing her out, Gao Ge pulls a wry face and shakes his head, saying, “It seems that the Xie Family doesn’t show any sincerity on roping me in.”Despite saying that, Gao Ge can understand it. After all, the Xie Family is mistaken for him. It is as if a company wants to poach a talent but unexpectedly, the talent has been in trouble. Of course, the company won’t get into the mess, which is completely reasonable but a bit disappointing.Gao Ge thought that the people of the Xie Family must be kind people like Xie Zhuolian. As it appears, he has a deep misunderstanding of the Xie Family as if the Xie Family does of him. It is fair enough to say that one member cannot represent the whole family. For example, Yue Xincheng and Yue Tuzhi are birth brothers while Gao Ge and Yue Xincheng
“Jing, I’ve told you that this man is not reliable but you didn’t believe me. Now, you see? I wasn’t lying.”The old woman holding the stick walks on the mountainous path with Meng Jing, her lips curling into a sneer.“You are right.” Meng Jing nods.The old woman heaves a sigh and continues saying, “When we were in Qiu City, I saw him exchange amorous glances with Xia Lu. Back then, I didn’t think too much. Come to think of it now, I really found his true color quite in time.”Meng Jing looks rather sulky and doesn’t respond.“However, it is nothing. There are so many disciples in the Ghost Sect. It is not a difficult thing to find a good man for you. When we return to the Ghost Sect, I will start to arrange it for you. Humph. When they know about your situation, they will surely strive to marry you,” the old woman continues saying.Meng Jing is disgruntled and hastens to say, “Granny, forget about
Gao Ge didn’t expect that Heaven Dragon should take him here.Yet, it is understandable.There is no safer place than here in Huaxia.Looking at the four glistening words in the sun, Gao Ge can’t help reading them.“The Dragon Court Compound?”Heaven Dragon laughs and says, “Enough with muttering. Come with me.”“Okay.”Following behind Heaven Dragon, Gao Ge enters the Dragon Court Compound and suddenly feels nervous.Gao Ge also figures out why Heaven Dragon refuses to let Xia Lu come along. After all, Meng Jing’s parents also live in the Dragon Court Compound. If they see Xia Lu, things will become complicated. Although Gao Ge doesn’t mean to conceal anything deliberately, he can’t upset Meng Jing’s parents.Actually, he hasn’t seen his parents for a long time.Therefore, Gao Ge inevitably feels afraid when he is about to meet them.
Gao Ge’s thought is quite simple.He knows that his parents and Meng Jing’s parents all want to return to Jiangnan City. The reason why they couldn’t stay in Jiangnan City is that he was worried that he might implicate them. However, the situation is different now. Gao Ge is about to establish a sect in Jiangnan City. By then, there will be quite some masters in Jiangnan City and he can probably reside permanently in Jiangnan City. In that case, it will be okay to let his parents and Meng Jing’s parents stay in Jiangnan City.Of course, it still takes some time. And Gao Ge has to make sure that Jiangnan City is absolutely safe before making such an arrangement but it is good to cheer them up by telling them the news.Those around their age just don’t want to stay away from home.Gao Ge is aware of it.Gao Ge stays in the Dragon Court Compound for two days. After all, he doesn’t have to carry out any mission.
Before that, Gao Ge knows something about Drunken Fairy Powder. Afterward, he kind of understands it completely after Xie Zhuolian explains it to him.As such, Gao Ge is totally fine with taking the Drunken Fairy Powder.In fact, Drunken Fairy Powder is not poisonous. It can only resist the strength or aura of the cultivator.Unless Xie Zhuolian triggers the Drunken Fairy Powder within his body, he won’t be impacted at all.“How does it taste?” Heaven Dragon says smilingly.“I think you can give it a try,” Gao Ge says, “It actually tastes nice. It is a bit like the Throat Herbal Powder.”Heaven Dragon nods and looks somewhat surprised.Gao Ge asks curiously, “What’s wrong?”“I’m just a bit curious,” Heaven Dragon says, “How close are you to this girl? Why do you trust her so much?”Hearing Heaven Dragon’s words, Lurking Dragon, Fire Dragon and the others all lo
In the dark cave, several blue flames are flickering on the cliffs. Shone by the fire, the three people in the cave look somewhat gloomy and spooky.The old woman sits on the ground cross-legged. The stick has been thrown aside. She is healing the injury she has got in Qiu City quickly with the help of the Yin Qi in the cave.Meng Jing is standing aside quietly but the glance by Li Lang makes her quite uncomfortable.Finally, Li Lang says, “I didn’t expect that I should meet you here.”Meng Jing takes a glance at him and sneers without attention to him.“Haha. Thinking of that, I’m really happy. Who can imagine the arrogant Gao Ge’s beloved woman should join the Ghost Sect? Doesn’t he always want to exterminate the Ghost Sect? If he knows that you’ve joined the Ghost Sect, will he kill you too?” Li Lang says wildly.The old woman sitting in meditation doesn’t know what has happened around. Neither d
Li Lang is so happy beyond words.He never expected that he could have a chance to marry such a beauty.Meng Jing is disgruntled aside but in his eyes, she is simply bashful!“Granny, are you serious?” Li Lang asks in disbelief.Hearing that, the old woman is disgruntled.“What do you mean? I won’t lie to you,” the old woman says with a frown.Li Lang hastens to smile obsequiously, “No, you’ve got me wrong. Of course I won’t think so. I just can’t believe it...”“Why don’t you believe it?” The old woman laughs. She is quite satisfied with Li Lang’s current attitude and performance. With a nod, she says, “I can tell that you do like Jing. I’m her master, which makes me kind of her mother. I’ve always wanted to find a good man for her.”Hearing that, Meng Jing literally wants to kill the old woman.She is so perplexed.Who told the old woman that she
Red Fish Village is the name of the fishing village where Gao Ge and Xie Zhuolian stay.Actually, there is a story behind the fishing village’s name.According to Cai, a tsunami happened many years ago and the surging waves were about to engulf the whole fishing village. At that moment, all the villagers were despairing because the waves struck them off guard. However, when the village was about to disappear from the world, there came a miracle.A colossal red fish suddenly jumped out of the water and engulfed the waves with one bite. Then it returned to the sea, which saved the villagers from the disaster.In memory of the big red fish, the fishing village was renamed as Red Fish Village.There are not many residents in Red Fish Village, probably a few hundred people. The villagers live on fishing. Quite some boats are parked outside the fishing village.Cai’s father is also a fisher but he hasn’t
