Ling Xiangyang sprang to his feet abruptly, "Is this information reliable?"
"Absolutely certain," the man nodded repeatedly, "It's reported by our insider in Dragon Hall, there can't be any mistake."
Ye Wujie's face turned incredibly grim as he suddenly clenched his hand, crushing the wine glass in it on the spot!
"Trash! A bunch of trash!"
Enraged, Ye Wujie cursed, "I even handed out the Burst Spirit Pills, and yet they can't even deal with a Qin Jiang. What's the use of them anyway?"
All those present shuddered in fear from Ye Wujie's bellowing.
Not one dared even lift their head.
"Mr. Ye, it seems that I won't have the chance to receive your gift now," Zhao Mulong said softly, a hint of displeasure flickering across his face before he continued sternly, "It looks like I'll have to take matters into my hands."
"I'm truly sorry, Mr. Zhao," Ye Wujie offered an awkward smile, "After taking the Burst Spirit Pill, Zhang Yun's strength was supposed to reach Half-step Heavenly Realm. But now he's been defeated. It seems that Qin Jiang has improved once again."
Zhao Mulong was dismissive, "He's only faced a drug-enhanced Half-step Heavenly Realm. He's no threat when facing ."
Ye Wujie cautioned, "Even so, Qin Jiang is no ordinary man. I've fought with him ti and again, yet never managed to get the upper hand. Don't underestimate him."
Zhao Mulong wasn't in a hurry, instead tapping his fingers on the table, pondering, "Don't tell you have another plan?"
Ye Wujie nodded slightly, "Elder Han will arrive in Zhonghai tomorrow night. He will extend an invitation to Qin Jiang then..."
Hearing Ye Wujie's plan, Zhao Mulong instantly revealed a sinister smile.
"Mr. Ye, when it cos to sches, you are the one to beat!"
Zhao Mulong said with admiration, and then added, "You'll have to help make contact with Elder Han about this matter."
"Mr. Zhao, rest assured. We are all in the sa boat and should help each other. There's no need for such formalities," Ye Wujie replied, a trace of coldness flitting across his eyes. Did he really believe that Qin Jiang would turn the tide every ti?
anwhile, inside the No.1 villa at Dinglong Bay.
Xu Muge was too anxious to bother with work, her pretty face full of concern.
After a long wait without any news from Qin Jiang, she picked up her phone and dialed his number.
Beep... Beep... Beep...
Amidst the waiting ringtone, Xu Muge grew anxious. Why wasn't he answering the phone?
Could sothing have happened?
No sooner had this thought erged than Xu Muge imdiately shook her head and dismissed it.
It can't be!
Qin Jiang wouldn't have an accident!
At last, the call was reluctantly answered, and Xu Muge hurriedly asked with concern, "Qin Jiang, how did it go? Are you hurt?"
"I..."
The weak voice of Qin Jiang ca through the phone, "Muge, I want to tell you right now..."
Xu Muge's heart twitched violently, she quickly said, "You're still in Dragon Hall, aren't you?"
"Stay where you are, tell your location. I'm coming to find you right now! Wait for !"
Xu Muge, in her haste, did not bother with anything else and grabbed her car keys, rushing out the door.
But just as she opened the villa door, she ran straight into a sturdy chest, nearly falling over.
However, a large hand soon wrapped tightly around her slender waist, pulling her into an embrace.
Xu Muge looked up and seeing Qin Jiang before her, her heart surged with joy.
She quickly checked Qin Jiang's body for injuries, "Qin Jiang, are you hurt anywhere?"
Qin Jiang once again embraced Xu Muge into his arms and said to her, "I'm not injured."
"What?"
Xu Muge was slightly stunned, "Then... were you just trying to scare ?"
Qin Jiang smiled, "I was just playing a prank on you."
"Qin Jiang, you jerk!" Xu Muge swung her fist onto Qin Jiang's chest, "How dare you fool again, see how I will deal with you!"
"Ouch ouch ouch..." Qin Jiang pretended to be in pain, "Stop hitting, or I really will get hurt."
Seeing this, Xu Muge imdiately stopped her hand, worried that she might have actually hurt Qin Jiang by accident.
However, she still said with a cold face, "If you really got hurt, it would serve you right! Do you know how worried I was about you? Next ti, if you dare to trick with this again, I will really get angry!"
Realizing she was truly angry, Qin Jiang dropped his teasing deanor and again stepped forward to embrace Xu Muge, "Alright, don't be angry, I do actually have sothing to tell you."
"What is it..."
Before Xu Muge could finish speaking, a bouquet of red roses appeared in front of her, "Muge, these are for you."
Xu Muge was slightly startled, surprise showing in her eyes, "Why are you suddenly giving flowers?"
Qin Jiang smiled, "On my way back, I happened to pass by a flower shop. I thought to myself that I haven't given you any flowers since I returned, so I went in and bought a bouquet."
Xu Muge's heart ward.
Although she didn't care for flowers and such, when Qin Jiang gave them to her in person, she couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
"Qin Jiang, thank you, I really like them."
"Hmph! Seeing that you were sowhat thoughtful, I'll forgive your immature antics this ti." After speaking, Xu Muge tiptoed, her lips approaching Qin Jiang's.
Then, Qin Jiang brought out a bag of sothing else, "Let's go inside. I'll cook dinner for you myself today."
"Okay." After they entered the house, Xu Muge wanted to help Qin Jiang, but he insisted on doing it himself and would not let her get involved, so she had no choice but to give up.
She sat on the couch, quietly watching Qin Jiang busy himself in the kitchen, gradually becoming sowhat absent-minded.
It was like a dream!
The ups and downs of her life were all because of the man in front of her.
Fortunately, she had always had the support and company of Qin Jiang on her journey.
Her feelings for Qin Jiang had long been deeply etched into her flesh and blood.
Now this warm mont, she hoped, and strongly desired, could continue forever.
After dinner.
The two of them were affectionate for a while, and then Qin Jiang continued to concentrate on his cultivation.
In two days, he would face an even stronger opponent in the competition for the position of Hall Master.
He dared not relax in the slightest and must enhance his strength as quickly as possible.
It wasn't until the next afternoon that Qin Jiang stopped cultivating.
"How do you feel?"
The mont Qin Jiang stepped out of the room, Xu Muge imdiately prepared a cup of boiled water for him.
After taking a sip, Qin Jiang slowly said, "Not bad, but I still haven't made a breakthrough."
"Take your ti, don't put too much pressure on yourself," Xu Muge comforted.
"Mhm." Qin Jiang nodded. He had just co out to the yard to clear his mind when a guard ca to report, "Mr. Qin, soone outside has delivered a letter for you."
