Chapter 1952
Watching Ye Zhangqing and Huang Lao on the fighting platform, everyone present felt mixed emotions, for a moment not knowing whether to be happy or shocked.
Ye Zhangqing is the Young City Lord of the Cooking King Immortal City, and Huang Lao is his Protector of the Way—so what the hell is Huang Lao's relationship with the Cooking King Immortal City now?
Ji Le Gong Er Zu gritted his teeth in hatred, damn it, did the Cooking King Immortal City really cozy up to Huang Lao?
Old geezer, back then the Extreme Bliss Palace expended tremendous effort trying to win him over, but this old geezer just refused.
In the end he oddly chose the Cooking King Immortal City as his place of seclusion, and sure enough, this old geezer still joined the Cooking King Immortal City.
"Huang Lao, this time my Extreme Bliss Palace has overstepped; I will surely give the Cooking King Immortal City a satisfactory explanation later. If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave."
Things having come to this, Ji Le Gong Er Zu said in a deep voice.
He wasn't worried that Huang Lao would suddenly lash out and kill; first, there was no deadly grudge between the two sides, so there was no need to fight to the death.
A young disciple—dead is dead, what more can be done?
Secondly, Ye Zhangqing didn't suffer a loss either; the one who died was the Young Palace Master of his Extreme Bliss Palace.
Now the Extreme Bliss Palace not only reaps what it sowed, but also has to give the Cooking King Immortal City an explanation in return—isn't that enough?
Furthermore, it's their identities; if they really were killed, even Huang Lao would probably find it troublesome.
You should know that the Grand Ancestor of the Extreme Bliss Palace is an existence of the same level as him.
So Ji Le Gong Er Zu had anticipated that Huang Lao wouldn't make a move; as soon as his words fell, he directly swept up the corpse of that Young Palace Master, taking the Palace Master of the Extreme Bliss Palace with him, and left.
Zhang Xiaohuai also didn't try to stop them; even if he tried, he couldn't have stopped them—being able to kill a junior Young City Lord today was already a gain.
In Zhang Xiaohuai's dictionary, not losing is winning, and a small win is a big win.
They didn't linger there; as the Extreme Bliss Palace's people departed, Ye Zhangqing followed Huang Lao and Zhang Xiaohuai away.
Although the people had left, as expected, today's affair would soon spread throughout the Immortal Realm.
By then all the major powers will know that the Cooking King Immortal City has gained a Fourth Young City Lord, and its Protector of the Way is still the enigmatic Huang Lao.
One could say Ye Zhangqing became famous because of Huang Lao.
However, for these matters, Ye Zhangqing currently doesn't care; at this moment the three of them continue their unfinished banquet.
Just after remaking a few dishes and just placing them on the table, Zhang Xiaohuai seemed to suddenly recall something and let out a howl.
"Oh no............."
"Huh???"
"How come I didn't snatch that kid's Space Ring earlier? What a huge loss."
"Huh???"
I thought it was something serious, but seeing Zhang Xiaohuai's regretful, pained expression, Ye Zhangqing was speechless.
Even if a Young Palace Master's Space Ring held some treasures, how much could it possibly contain?
It's not even a minor loss—how could it be a huge loss?
Before Ye Zhangqing could speak, Zhang Xiaohuai's gaze turned to him, asking.
"You say I should go after him now—would there still be time?"
"That wouldn't be necessary, City Lord."
Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing's mouth twitched as he said, "Just for a Space Ring, you still want to chase after him?"
"Aren't you afraid their old ancestor will mess you up?"
Upon hearing that, Zhang Xiaohuai seemed to have dismissed the idea of pursuing, yet he still wore a face of regret as he spoke.
"What a huge loss, what a huge loss."
For a moment, even the immortal brew didn't seem as fragrant and sweet.
After keeping Zhang Xiaohuai company for a meal, once it was over Ye Zhangqing returned to his own Dong Fu.
Seeing Ye Zhangqing return, Huang Chong had already been waiting, brewing tea for Ye Zhangqing while he spoke.
"Shī xiōng, today really scared me to death; I was really worried................"
"You have so little confidence in me?"
"How could I not? After all, the other party is ultimately the Young Palace Master of the Extreme Bliss Palace."
As they were talking, suddenly the token at Huang Chong's waist flickered; this token can control the entire Dong Fu's Formation.
If someone wants to enter or leave the Dong Fu, the token will react.
Through the light curtain raised by the token, Huang Chong saw who the visitor was, and with a somewhat complexion he said to Ye Zhangqing.
"Shī xiōng, Tang Shī jiě wants to pay you a visit."
"Tang Shī jiě? Who's that?"
"It's Tang Xin Shī jiě."
"Is it her? Let her come in."
"Yes."
I had seen Tang Xin on the fighting platform before, and I still had some impression of him, but the two of us had never interacted before; now, just after returning, he came to the door to pay a visit, which is a bit strange.
Could it be because of Huang Lao?
Ye Zhangqing thought it over and over, and it seemed the only possibility was that the other party wanted to contact Huang Lao through him.
But if that were really the case, that would be overthinking it—Huang Lao wouldn't give him that face.
Huang Chong went to greet Tang Xin, while Ye Zhangqing sat in the Yuàn zhōng drinking tea; suddenly a notification from the dog system sounded in his mind, and then, with the final Good Review Points being recorded,
Ye Zhangqing's cultivation immediately began to surge like rising water lifting a boat.
His aura suddenly swelled greatly, and not long after he broke through the perfected Emperor Sovereign Realm.
Just at that moment, Huang Chong also brought Tang Xin and a few others inside.
"You stay here."
To show respect, Tang Xin specifically left her four junior martial sisters outside the Yuàn zhōng, and she alone followed Huang Chong into the Yuàn zhōng.
But as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he instantly felt a violent surge of Línglì.
Huh???
He stared, only to see Ye Zhangqing sitting on the bamboo chair in Yuàn zhōng, leisurely sipping tea, and...... and breaking through his cultivation?
Tang Xin had never seen such a situation before; she was instantly dumbfounded, stood frozen in place, and only after a moment did she turn her head to look at Huang Chong and say.
"What are you doing?"
"Senior sister, don't panic, Shī xiōng just had a simple breakthrough."
"I'm not panicking, and I know this is a cultivation breakthrough, but he's breaking through like this..............."
Which good person breaks through cultivation like this?
But Huang Chong, having seen it before, still replied calmly.
"Shī xiōng has always broken through like this, with no bottleneck."
Huh???
This is so outrageous?
Even though it's said that when this top-tier Yāoniè breaks through a minor realm, there truly is no bottleneck, it's not really like that.
At least find a quieter place; there should be some sense of ceremony.
Just drinking tea, legs up, and with a bang he broke through? Is it really that outrageous?
Tang Xin was just staring blankly, and Ye Zhangqing, who had just broken through, didn't notice the two's arrival at all, instead looking at his personal panel.
