Chapter 1353: Chapter 1366
The girl frowned deeply. She had only heard others ntion the na Nangong Yunxi; he was a descendant of the Nangong Family!
The girl stomped her foot in anger. What’s so great about being a descendant of the Nangong Family! Just because he’s from the Nangong Family, does he have to be so domineering and arrogant?
"So what if I took the initiative? Why did you have to accept?" the girl angrily retorted.
She glanced at the business card and then threw it on the table in frustration, "Consider your sister! I can’t be bothered to consider it!"
The girl snorted coldly and turned to leave. However, after taking just a few steps, she turned back and picked up the business card again.
She gazed at the business card deeply, struggling internally for a while.
Honestly, she wasn’t tempted at all when he ntioned five million, but when he offered to help her return to the country, she was genuinely moved.
It had been three years since she last returned ho, and now that her family mbers were both hospitalized, she truly wanted to go back. But the company wouldn’t allow it, and even when she wanted to quit in anger, they had enough reasons to prevent her from leaving.
Gripping the business card tightly, she hesitated for a long ti before finally putting it into her bag.
...
After Nangong Yunxi left the hotel, he received a call from Xia Xuan. On the phone, Xia Xuan inford him that Mr. Nangong had called, inquiring about Nangong Yunxi’s situation.
After Xia Xuan answered truthfully, it seed, judging from Old Master Nangong’s tone, that he was willing to let Nangong Yunxi return to the country.
After conveying this news to Nangong Yunxi, Xia Xuan waited for a response, but when none ca, he couldn’t help asking, "Yunxi, last night with that girl..."
"Everything is under control," Nangong Yunxi said calmly. "Alright, I’ll head back soon. Let’s talk when I get back."
Nangong Yunxi drove back to the villa. When he returned, Tian Yu was busy preparing lunch in the kitchen and didn’t notice his arrival.
He went straight to the bedroom, where Xia Xuan was waiting for him.
"Old Master Nangong finally relented; this is good news."
Xia Xuan couldn’t hide his excitent. They had been scheming for years, and finally, the day had co.
"It’s not ti to celebrate yet. I need Mr. Nangong to change his mind within these three days and let us return!"
Nangong Yunxi stated, giving himself only three days.
"Three days?"
Xia Xuan looked at Nangong Yunxi, puzzled. "Why only three days?"
Nangong Yunxi shook his head slightly, "The Ti-Space Mirror is malfunctioning and has reached its limit. Five tilines appearing simultaneously can last only three days. After that, even if Chu Ge doesn’t want to co back, he will disappear from the Fifth Space-Ti and return here."
Xia Xuan still didn’t understand.
Nangong Yunxi let out a cold laugh and said, "The reason I sent Chu Ge to the Fifth Space-Ti was not to let him stay there forever but to prevent him from causing trouble for ."
"Why did you also send Ye Liang to the Fifth Space-Ti then?"
Xia Xuan was even more confused.
It turned out Ye Liang was a Shadow Killer trained by Nangong Yunxi. To ensure Chu Ge behaved in the Fifth Space-Ti, he orchestrated Ye Liang’s soul transfer into the body of a foolish girl in the Fifth Space-Ti.
"Because of the ti difference, our three days are equivalent to three months in the Fifth Space-Ti, and I wouldn’t feel at ease without soone watching over Chu Ge during this ti."
"But keeping Ye Liang’s consciousness there for three months, is that really feasible?"
Xia Xuan questioned.
"Why wouldn’t it be? She has always been ant to serve . I’ve trained her for so long, waiting for this day."
Nangong Yunxi showed not a hint of compassion.
Xia Xuan understood as well. People like them, especially those like Nangong Yunxi, must be ruthless. Only the ruthless can remain unbothered by worldly attachnts and enmities, which is why Nangong Yunxi is the way he is.
"By the way, what about that girl? Last night, did you two really..." Xia Xuan found it awkward to broach the subject.
Nangong Yunxi nodded, "Everything is going according to plan. I used a little trick, and she took the bait. Such a simple girl is really rare these days."
Xia Xuan looked at Nangong Yunxi speechlessly, "Yunxi, don’t you have a misunderstanding about what simple ans?"
Nangong Yunxi looked puzzled at him, "What do you an?"
"With your ticulous plan, any girl would have taken the bait. It has nothing to do with being simple," he said, though he didn’t dare speak the last part about intelligence out loud.
"Anyway, let’s just wait for her news now."
Whether she’s simple or not, as long as she helps him complete the plan and break through the martial arts bottleneck, everything will be fine.
...
At this ti, within the Forbidden Land of the Man Yue Clan.
Old Wang and Fang Lang rushed into the Forbidden Land quickly after lighting the Wolf Smoke Tower.
To their surprise, it was a complete ss inside, but not a single soul was found.
"What’s going on?"
Old Wang looked at Fang Lang, puzzled.
Fang Lang glared at Old Wang, "Why are you asking ? Who should I ask?"
It was his first ti there as well, how was he supposed to know what had happened before!
Old Wang pursed his lips tightly and glared at Fang Lang. He didn’t have the mind to argue with him now.
"Let’s look around first. Maybe no one has run far and they’re just hiding!"
Old Wang said as he was about to look around.
But after just a couple of steps, Fang Lang pulled him back.
"What are you trying to do?" Old Wang glared at him, asking.
"Look quickly."
Fang Lang pointed at the Ti-Space Mirror, "Doesn’t it look different from before?"
Old Wang frowned and looked in the direction of Fang Lang’s pointing. He saw five cracks had appeared on the Ti-Space Mirror.
Suddenly, Old Wang’s brows furrowed even tighter.
"What’s going on? Why are there five cracks?"
Though the Ti-Space Mirror was in the Forbidden Land, they had been fortunate to see it during the Great Elder’s succession. At the ti, the mirror was flat, like an ordinary mirror.
But now, there were five cracks, and it seed uneven.
Old Wang squinted his eyes at the Ti-Space Mirror. It seed as if a mysterious force inside was surging, about to burst out at any mont.
"Fang Lang, go and light another Wolf Smoke Tower quickly!"
Old Wang grew tense all of a sudden.
Fang Lang didn’t understand and stared at Old Wang, "What do you an? What do these five cracks signify?"
