These two people, or rather one person and one dragon, are none other than Tu Hongwu and Old Long of the Dragon Race.
These past few days, watching Su Mo and the others get closer and closer, made them anxious enough to scratch their insides out.
The distance wasn’t that far to begin with, opening a special Space Channel only takes about a day.
But Bai Yuanhao simply refused to go, insisting on taking them through the ordinary Space Channel, though he knew well enough that Bai Yuanhao was giving him ti to prepare.
But what’s there to prepare for this situation? You make a mistake, you own up to it; if you’re going to be punished, you face it head-on!
Now that it’s all out in the open, do you really think Tu Hongwu can just run away?
Actually, Tu Hongwu’s first thought at the ti was to run, but unfortunately, not only did Old Long not let him run, but even the outside environnt wouldn’t allow it.
Helpless, he could only think of other solutions, but under these circumstances, what solution could there possibly be?
Running was not an option, hiding wasn’t either; all he could do was wait here and let the inner tornt continue.
If he didn’t know that Bai Yuanhao wasn’t that kind of person, he would have suspected Old Bai of doing it on purpose.
His current state of mind is more tornted than a student waiting for a teacher’s spot check because they haven’t done their howork.
At least during a spot check, the teacher might not pick you, but his disciple was definitely going to find him!
So in this situation, all he can do is hope that his disciple arrives soon and this matter can pass quickly, easing his inner tornt.
Old Long feels the sa way, even more afraid than Tu Hongwu, as Tu Hongwu is Su Mo’s master, so nothing much will happen to him.
But it’s different for him; he was once exiled by Su Mo to the Extre East.
So his heart is even more uneasy.
Su Mo had just exited the Space Channel and hadn’t even had a chance to speak when he saw a figure with a full head of red hair and a red beard, wearing a blood-red robe, rushing towards him.
Su Mo was not only familiar with this figure, but he had also seen him not long ago in the dungeon.
"Good disciple, your master has missed you to death!"
As he spoke, Tu Hongwu kept patting Su Mo’s back, truly displaying a picture of deep master-disciple love and harmony.
Su Mo, being suddenly hugged by his master, spoke excitedly: "Master, I’ve missed you to death too!"
Tu Hongwu: ???
Did my disciple misspeak just now? Whatever, young people are prone to saying the wrong thing when excited. This ti, as his master, I will magnanimously forgive him.
"Disciple, you know, although this ti your master went a bit too far, the main reason was to cultivate you.
To prepare you to carry the banner of the Human Race early on, so you wouldn’t end up like so Chu—only knowing to fight. Do you know how much determination it took !
Although I could imagine how sad and heartbroken you’d be upon hearing the news of my ’death,’ my heart was even more pained!
You don’t know how I’ve been these days. Every ti I thought about your sadness, my heart ached even more. I couldn’t eat or sleep, I was just torn apart!"
Tu Hongwu, getting to the sad part, burst into tears, truly heartbroken, perfectly illustrating what it ans to cry old tears of sorrow.
At this mont, not only was Su Mo stunned, but even Chu Tian and Bai Yuanhao, standing not far away, were stupefied.
So, what on earth is going on!
The evil one files the complaint first? Or pretending to be pitiful.
But before you act pitiful, could you look in the mirror to see if you really can pull it off!
Su Mo hadn’t even spoken yet, and you started crying first, seizing the opportunity first—if you’re late, you suffer, so you believed in crying first, huh?
Bai Yuanhao didn’t believe Tu Hongwu’s act at all, and Chu Tian was even more direct. He was finding a good position to land a couple of kicks when Su Mo made a move.
He knew Su Mo wouldn’t dare to hit hard, but he would!
This disciple of his was just too soft-hearted. Even though Tu Hongwu had deceived him like this, he also prepared a World Origin-level core as a gift for him.
So such tasks can only be handled by soone like , his other master.
They weren’t wrong in their thinking. This was the decision Tu Hongwu had co to after pondering it day and night for several days.
Anyway, the beating is inevitable, so might as well find a way to lessen the suffering.
Thus, the scene before them unfolded.
However, Tu Hongwu sensed sothing amiss from a single sentence Su Mo had said earlier.
Actually, when he rushed over, he had already prepared himself for receiving a punch from his disciple and then hugging him tightly and crying.
But Su Mo was surprisingly calm; the calr he was, the more uneasy Tu Hongwu felt.
For he knew his disciple all too well. From any angle, he wasn’t the type to hold back.
Sothing was definitely off!
"Good disciple, you’ve lost weight from your travels. Co, I’ve prepared so delicious food for you. These are good things from the Dragon Race. I’ll take you to try so."
Despite feeling sothing off, Tu Hongwu still planned to stick to his original plan. There’s supposedly nothing one al can’t solve.
If it can’t be solved, then two als.
Su Mo removed Tu Hongwu’s hand, gently shaking his head.
Seeing this scene, both Tu Hongwu and Old Long’s hearts skipped a beat, knowing that what they anticipated was inevitably coming!
"No rush, I actually brought a gift for my master this ti..."
Su Mo’s words were cut off by Tu Hongwu: "Why be so formal between us as master and disciple? What’s with the talk of gifts? I’m already so happy to see you today. Co, let’s enjoy so good food together."
"But, Master, it’s really worth a look, it’s quite sothing."
Tu Hongwu’s face changed, as Old Long had previously said that his disciple wanted to embed him in a coffin. So what he could bring out as a gift was obvious.
"It’s genuinely good. I got it from clearing a World Core Dungeon—it’s a world’s core, an Origin treasure. I thought it would suit you, so I specially brought it over."
The originally prepared Tu Hongwu, expecting his disciple to bring out a coffin, relaxed seeing these words, even showing a hint of a delighted expression.
"Oh, as expected of my good disciple, already thinking of gifts for your master—what exactly is this wonderful thing? Show your master, world cores are hard to co by.
Since my disciple is so thoughtful, as your master, I will accept it gratefully."
As he spoke, Tu Hongwu even turned to Chu Tian with a proud expression, gesturing for him to see how deep the relationship between him and Su Mo was.
Even though you are also Su Mo’s master, the closest bond is with !
Even after deceiving Su Mo, he still rembered to prepare a gift for . It appears he got the item when he went out to find dicine for earlier.
Perhaps he was planning to give it to after saving .
To think such a dutiful child is willing to be deceived like this by .
When I think of Su Mo retrieving the dicine for and preparing an Origin treasure as a gift, originally coming back in high spirits only to find out half an hour ago that I had passed away—how sad and desperate he must have been!
I’m such a terrible person!
At this mont, Tu Hongwu felt imnse guilt and even considered slapping himself twice.
"Master, see how this is. I just got it yesterday and brought it to you today. Do you like it?"
"Like... li...?!?"
Tu Hongwu agreed heartily, but when he saw what Su Mo took out, his expression froze on his face.
