Chapter 948: Chapter 0948: He Was Bewildered by the Mother and Daughters Trio
Wuweizi listened but didn’t nod.
He was now worried that Luo Yang might be playing him.
In the past, he thought Luo Yang was an easy-to-deceive young man, but later he realized it was far from the case.
As the saying goes: ginger gets spicier with age.
However, Wuweizi discovered that he himself didn’t seem to be spicier than Luo Yang; on several occasions, he almost fell into Luo Yang’s traps.
Looking back, Wuweizi had to admit that youth could be fearso.
“Little brother, I’ll be direct with you. You’re not an honest kid, and I’m worried…”
He was interrupted by a burst of laughter.
“Elder, let ask you, what use do I have for the Blood Devil?”
Wuweizi honestly didn’t understand why Luo Yang needed the Blood Devil for cultivating Ferocious Power, and he truly felt it was of no use to him.
In the Blood Devil Sect, barely anyone understood Ferocious Power; even if soone had the Blood Devil, it would be difficult to find soone to teach them the technique.
“Little brother, I trust you! Please handle Xiao Xiao Niu’s matter for . Once it’s settled, I’ll reward you handsoly!” Wuweizi said generously.
“Elder, I already told you—I didn’t co for rewards, only to settle our grievances.”
The subject shifted.
“That said, Elder, you don’t give a sense of safety. Let finish the arena battle first; after that, I’ll give you the Blood Devil. I still don’t know if the thod you ntioned can fend off Chaos Powder. If I get killed, wouldn’t I lose out big ti?”
“Oh, co on! Little brother, we’re family. How could I possibly harm you?!”
Seeing Wuweizi act as though he was baring his heart and soul to prove his sincerity, Luo Yang smiled and nodded.
Both of them were putting on a show—like seasoned actors—so there was no need for either to get angry.
Luo Yang could only laugh.
“Elder, I don’t need the Blood Devil, I just want to keep it with for a day. Is that really not possible? Or do you actually intend to harm ?” Luo Yang questioned.
“Little brother, why are you so paranoid? I, an elder of the Blood Devil Sect, would deceive you?” Wuweizi was almost ready to stomp his feet.
Having witnessed Wuweizi’s true nature during a soul-out-of-body experience, Luo Yang didn’t trust him.
Otherwise, it’d be like getting sold off and still helping soone count their money.
“Elder, ti is precious. If you agree, we’ll continue working together; if not, let’s drop it and go our separate ways.” Luo Yang said coldly.
“Little brother, you don’t intend to hoard the Blood Devil all to yourself, do you?” Wuweizi said, lengthening his face.
In truth, both wanted the Blood Devil for the sa reason: to cultivate Ferocious Power.
Luo Yang didn’t want to waste ti chatting with Wuweizi and said, “I know you don’t fully trust , but you have no choice but to trust . I really ca here to resolve the grievances between us. Don’t try anything tricky, or I’ll turn hostile.”
These words made Wuweizi’s old face turn red, then black, then red again.
“Little brother, are you threatening ?” Wuweizi’s gaze grew colder.
“Elder, maybe you don’t intend to kill , but Elder Chang Zhenzi does. If I don’t keep an ace up my sleeve, how can I just let you all kill at will?” Luo Yang countered.
At this point, any further conversation might lead to a physical conflict.
Wuweizi said darkly, “Little brother, why make things so complicated? We’re all on the sa side, you don’t need to act so distant!”
From his tone, it sounded like he was prepared to compromise.
Luo Yang seized the opportunity and said, “Elder, you can co watch compete in the arena. After I finish the battle, if nothing happens to , the Blood Devil will be yours. How’s that? A little compromise from both sides, yes?”
Seeing Wuweizi about to object, Luo Yang didn’t give him the chance to speak.
“Elder, no offense, but I’ve already been quite respectful of you. If that’s still not acceptable, forget it—we’ll never et again!”
Saying so, he lifted his foot to leave.
“Little brother! Fine! I’ll trust you this once! Deal—after the battle, you must hand over the Blood Devil to , no delays!”
Wuweizi grudgingly agreed.
At this point, Luo Yang had managed to placate both Xiao Xiao Niu and Wuweizi.
The next step was to make clever arrangents to ensure the Blood Devil ended up in his possession—that would suffice.
However, succeeding would require him to adapt to changing circumstances.
Luo Yang didn’t need to keep the Blood Devil for too long. Once he had mastered Ferocious Power, the Blood Devil’s fate was of no interest to him.
Given Luo Yang’s Super mory and innate talent for martial arts, he only needed to watch others use Ferocious Power once or twice to learn it.
In other words, keeping the Blood Devil for about a week would be more than enough.
Later, when Xiao Xiao Niu and the others wanted to fight over the Blood Devil again, Luo Yang wouldn’t care to get involved.
During breakfast, a dozen or so people gathered in a large hall.
Most of them were Luo Yang’s people; after all, his “wives” made up five of the attendees—Hong Jiaxin, Zhu Zishan, and the three Gu sisters.
Among them were three female guests, one of whom was, naturally, Xiao Xiao Niu.
The remaining two shocked Luo Yang.
One was Zhang Jing’s “daughter,” the one with a scar on her left thigh.
The other had no scar on her thigh, and Luo Yang initially thought it was Zhang Jing herself!
However, the eyes of this Zhang Jing differed from the one he had seen before in the Hongyun Brigade.
These two won looked exactly like Zhang Jing!
Had Luo Yang not used his X-Ray Ability to examine them from head to toe several tis, it would’ve been nearly impossible to distinguish between them.
Earlier, Xiao Xiao Niu had ntioned that once Zhang Jing’s “daughter” appeared, there was a high chance she would co in pairs.
Now, facing these two won, Luo Yang couldn’t tell whether they were both Zhang Jing’s “daughters” or if one of them was Zhang Jing herself.
“Such a coincidence?”
Luo Yang greeted the Zhang Jing with no thigh scar.
When acquaintances et—even if they’re enemies—they exchange at least a glance or a gesture.
But these two Zhang Jings were colder than enemies: they neither replied nor looked at Luo Yang.
It left Luo Yang feeling awkward!
After all, Zhang Jing had once acknowledged him as her master.
A master speaks, yet the disciple ignores—what a disgrace!
Luo Yang’s anger boiled, and he sneered, “Pretending not to know ?”
At this mont, Hua XiYi chuckled, “Hehe! They’ve never t you; why would they recognize you?”
Could it be that both were Zhang Jing’s “daughters”?!
Luo Yang’s head was spinning.
Since obtaining the Shennong Scripture, he had encountered nurous bizarre events.
For instance, Wandering Souls and Wild Ghosts—now there was even a Soul Beast residing in his ntal sea.
One could say he was used to strange occurrences.
Despite being young, he was quite experienced.
But these two Zhang Jings were unprecedented—he had never heard of anything like it, let alone seen it.
A mother and daughter looking exactly the sa age—how many people in the world could say they’d encountered such a thing?
Of course, if the mother had so anti-aging technique and stood next to her daughter, it might be hard to tell them apart by facial features alone, making them seem like sisters.
But these two Zhang Jings—whether in facial features or figure—clearly looked like twenty-sothing beauties. How could they possibly be mother and daughter?
Then a small incident made Luo Yang even more shocked.
While he was racking his brain, trying to make sense of it, he received a call from Zhang Jing!
Unbelievable! A downright ghostly encounter!
Staring at his phone’s screen, showing Zhang Jing’s incoming call, Luo Yang was stunned for quite a while.
Having two extrely cold Zhang Jings right in front of him was already plenty for him to digest over the next few days.
Now, another Zhang Jing was calling him—what was going on here?
Luo Yang suspected the person on the other end of the line might not be Zhang Jing but soone pretending to be her.
Still, all he had to do was answer the call—he could identify the voice.
