Chapter 20

Of course, he would not put everything on display.

Ying Ziyu was very clear about the importance of hidden cards.

It was enough for him to reveal a force sufficient to deter Great Qin.

Jiang Yuyan was also wise enough not to ask more, but continued to accompany Ying Ziyu quietly.

Not only did she not have the slightest worry in her heart, but she was actually very happy.

The more powerful her master was, the happier she became.

In her view, her master's strength was a matter of course.

No matter what kind of powerhouse they were, they should all submit at her master's feet!

Southern Song, Jiaxing.

Guo Jing was eating with Huang Rong.

"Miss Huang, do you think I can ascend the Heaven's Pride List?"

Guo Jing scratched his head in a silly, honest way, his tone of inquiry very uncertain.

Huang Rong ignored Guo Jing; she had not come out of Taohuadao to answer this question for Guo Jing, but to search for that heartless man, the Carefree Traveler.

To find him, Huang Rong had searched many places, but she had not even heard a shred of news.

Huang Rong did not have the slightest intention of giving up.

No matter what, she had to find the Carefree Traveler and properly question this heartless man.

Why did he just walk away!

Seeing that Huang Rong ignored him, Guo Jing could not help but feel a bit disappointed.

Although he looked a bit silly, he was not stupid at all; he knew that there had always been another man in Huang Rong's heart.

This man was very important to Huang Rong.

Therefore, Guo Jing did not have too many thoughts about Huang Rong; his question just now was purely because he was not very sure and wanted to get an answer.

Just at this moment, a man's frivolous laughter came from outside the inn.

"Guo Jing, with your silly and foolish nature, how are you worthy of the Heaven's Pride List? The one who should be able to ascend such a list is a genius like me, a noble young master!"

The person speaking was Ouyang Ke!

After walking into the inn, Ouyang Ke did not even look at Guo Jing directly, but kept staring at Huang Rong.

"Miss Huang, what a coincidence, I didn't expect you to be here too!"

"I have already told my uncle that we will go to Taohuadao to propose marriage in a few days."

"By then, you will become my wife!"

Ouyang Ke said with a face full of smiles.

If it were anyone else, they would certainly be deceived by his appearance as a gentle and jade-like noble young master.

However, was Huang Rong an ordinary person?

Ever since she first saw Ouyang Ke, she had seen the greed and lust in his eyes.

This man was just lusting after her body!

Despicable!

"I advise you to give up this idea."

"Of course, if you and your uncle are looking for death, I don't mind sending you on your way!"

A cold light flashed in Huang Rong's eyes.

If it were not for the fact that she did not want to provoke trouble for no reason and disturb her progress in finding that heartless man, the Carefree Traveler.

She would have long since solved this annoying fly, Ouyang Ke, with one palm!

"Miss Huang, don't be so angry."

"We will be family sooner or later!"

As Ouyang Ke spoke, he was about to start getting handsy.

Seeing this, Guo Jing, who was on the side, immediately blocked Ouyang Ke and scolded loudly: "Ouyang Ke, what are you doing!"

Although he did not have other thoughts about Huang Rong.

However, after spending many days together, he had already come to regard Huang Rong as a good friend.

He would not allow Ouyang Ke to be impolite to Huang Rong.

"You fool who can't even ascend the Heaven's Pride List, what qualifications do you have to bark here? Get lost!"

Ouyang Ke said angrily, trying his best to knock Guo Jing flying.

However, no matter how much force he used, Guo Jing did not move a single bit.

This made Ouyang Ke somewhat embarrassed and furious.

Just as he was about to make a move, the Heaven's Pride List in the sky refreshed once again.

【Heaven's Pride List · 25th Place!】

【Guo Jing!】

【Identity: Disciple of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, Disciple of Hong Qigong!】

【Realm: Perfected Innate!】

【Techniques: Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Nine Yin Manual!】

【Reward: Mystic Grade, Lower Tier Elixir: Five Dragon Five Elephant Pill; after consumption, it can increase internal energy by sixty years, increase strength by five dragons and five elephants, and enhance the power of the Dragon Elephant technique by fifty percent!】

Seeing Guo Jing ascend the list, Ouyang Ke's face became very ugly.

A second ago, he was still mocking Guo Jing for definitely not being able to ascend the Heaven's Pride List, but in the end, the person ascended it right after.

And he even obtained such a generous reward.

Ouyang Ke now felt as if someone had slapped him hard in the face.

His heart was filled with even more envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Why could a fool like Guo Jing ascend the Heaven's Pride List, while a noble young master like him, Ouyang Ke, could not?

"Guo Jing, I'll kill you!"

Ouyang Ke, in a fit of rage, could not care about anything else, and the fan in his hand went straight for Guo Jing's neck.

After Guo Jing dodged, he struck Ouyang Ke's body with one palm.

With this strike, he used all his strength.

Immediately after, Guo Jing did not give Ouyang Ke a moment to catch his breath, and unleashed the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

A golden dragon shadow appeared and struck Ouyang Ke's body heavily.

Ouyang Ke spat out a large mouthful of blood and dragged his heavily injured body away quickly.

"Miss Huang, I let him run away!"

Guo Jing said with some regret.

Immediately after, he took out the Five Dragon Five Elephant Pill and said: "Miss Huang, if it weren't for your help, I would not have been able to apprentice under Qigong, nor would I have been able to learn the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Nine Yin Manual."

"This elixir shall be my gift of thanks!"

Guo Jing spoke very sincerely, without any falsehood.

He was just that kind of person; whoever was good to him, he would return the favor twofold.

Huang Rong waved her hand and said: "Brother Guo, there is no need for this; this is your reward, I cannot take it."

"What's more, this elixir is of no use to me."

"The fact that you stepped in just now to help me repel that bad guy Ouyang Ke is already a huge help to me."

"It is time for you and me to part ways!"

She had seen very clearly just now that the meridians in Ouyang Ke's body had been destroyed.

Even if he ran away, he would not live for long.

As for the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Nine Yin Manual, Huang Rong did not look down on them at all.

What she cultivated was the Innate Universe Skill that the heartless man had taught her, which could reach the Earth Immortal Realm, far more powerful than these Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Nine Yin Manual.

After Huang Rong and Guo Jing parted ways, she began to continue searching for the heartless man!

"I must find you!"
