Chapter 528: Chapter 528: Feiyan’s Appointment
At this moment, Long Lan, who was previously calm and undisturbed, had turned ashen, stunned beyond explanation, as if bereft of her very spirit!
She had been poisoned by a Gu today!
Moreover, it was the infamous “chain Gu” from the legends.
Long Lan herself was a grandmaster in handling Gu, so she knew full well the potency and complexity of the chain Gu. In fact, she had researched the chain Gu but never succeeded in mastering it.
She once suspected that the chain Gu was but an invention, a nonexistent technique. However, today she had not only witnessed it firsthand, but had also personally validated it.
“Hahaha~~~ You can break your vow now, right?” Huang Xiaolong’s voice came from outside, followed by a huge crowd of villagers, including the son of the village chief.
Everyone saw that Long Lan’s face had turned a ghastly shade and her heart was shaking non-stop, clear indications of having been infiltrated by the Gu.
“Aunt Long Lan… are… are you poisoned?” The son of the village chief asked incredulously.
Long Lan looked at Huang Xiaolong with a strange gaze, muttering, “First you planted a centipede Gu on my daughter, then you concealed another Gu within the centipede Gu. When I tried to unravel the centipede Gu from my daughter, the concealed Gu attacked me unprepared. This is an incredibly cunning ploy, specifically designed to target a Gu Master…”
“Hmm,” Huang Xiaolong nodded.
At this time, Ji Yianxue had also regained consciousness. She looked dazedly at Huang Xiaolong, then turned to Long Lan, tremblingly saying, “Mom… Mom… you’re my mother…”
“Good… dear daughter… My vow has been broken, from now on, I can stay by your side, travel far places with you… and we… and we can also visit that unfaithful man…” Long Lan held Ji Yianxue tightly, her eyes glistening with tears.
The mother and daughter had finally recognized each other.
Weeping bitterly, the scene was profoundly touching.
“Well, I told you so, this is a happy ending. Quite good,” Huang Xiaolong also let out a satisfied smile.
Ouyang Lingling glared at Huang Xiaolong, “You really startled me just now. You actually used a Gu on Miss. You’re too bad.”
At this time, Long Lan began to recite a mantra in an attempt to expel the Gu bug from her body.
Huang Xiaolong laughed and said, “It’s no use. Only I can remove the Gu bugs that I place.”
Proceeding with a thought, Huang Xiaolong chanted the ancient Gu tongue. The next second, a tiny transparent insect flew out magically from Long Lan’s heart, without causing any harm to her skin.
Huang Xiaolong opened his palm, and the bug poison landed on it. Its transparency made it look incredibly eerie.
“What Gu is this?” Long Lan, a lifetime Gu breeder, was unable to recognize Huang Xiaolong’s Gu.
“Oh, it’s nothing, merely bug poison, much stronger than your Golden Silkworm Gu. I have already nurtured it, and for now, it is probably the most powerful Gu in the world. It can kill humans and exterminate ghosts.” Huang Xiaolong wasn’t exaggerating. This bug poison was indeed as powerful as the Purple Cloth Ghost!
Long Lan was left dumbstruck, truly terrified.
Huang Xiaolong took back the bug poison into the Yin Soul Tube to continue nourishing it with the Yin Qi.
Right then, the people in the valley dug pits and buried all the bodies, including those of numerous enemies.
Returning to the village.
The villagers slaughtered chickens and sheep to honor Huang Xiaolong and others.
Everyone ate heartily and drank merrily. In the evening, there was a bonfire party with songs and dances.
Huang Xiaolong recited several scriptures to send off the deceased villagers, fulfilling his duty to the best of his abilities.
The next day, Huang Xiaolong, Ji Yianxue, Ouyang Lingling, Xia Jian, and Long Lan, all set off to leave Long’s village.
Now that they had the protection of the formidable Gu Master, Long Lan, most assassins would not dare to attempt to kill Ji Yianxue again. Recklessly acting could cost them their lives. After all, the Golden Silkworm was known to be the strongest Gu, closely followed by Huang Xiaolong’s bug poison – neither of them were insignificant.
They got into a car and returned to Binhai City.
Huang Xiaolong bid farewell to Ji Yianxue and others.
“Xiaolong! Thanks a lot for this time!” Ji Yianxue gazed longingly at Huang Xiaolong. “We’re friends, right?”
“Hmm.” Huang Xiaolong smiled and nodded.
“So… so in the future, I can come to play with you anytime, and if I need help, you will assist me, won’t you?” Ji Yianxue looked at Huang Xiaolong expectantly.
“Um… as long as you pay me, I’ll help you.” Huang Xiaolong laughed and replied. “After all, I am just a money-minded boy from a rural area.”
“You!” Ouyang Lingling was actually rather unreceptive. “Am I considered to be your friend too?”
“You? Well, you are too fierce. Let’s be friends when you turn gentle.” Huang Xiaolong laughed out loud and walked away.
Xia Jian watched Huang Xiaolong’s retreating figure and murmured, “Mr. Huang is truly a unique and extraordinary character. With his natural talent at such a young age, he is without a doubt comparable to the geniuses of the top ten ancient martial art families in Huaxia…”
Arriving back at his residence in the Binhai villa area, Huang Xiaolong had a quick lunch in the neighborhood.
Getting home, taking a shower, and making a phone call to the village elder confirmed that 30 billion had indeed been ready into the account.
On the phone, the village elder was so overjoyed, he kept praising Huang Xiaolong for his abilities and stated that he was truly the hope and pride of the entire village.
Reportedly, the village had already contacted the county’s construction team and even a renowned real estate developer from the provincial city with the intention to use that money to build roads, bridges, schools, and hospitals.
Huang Xiaolong was extremely gratified by this. Having been in the city for so long, he had finally made a contribution to his impoverished hometown!
After lying down for a nap and being awakened by a phone call, he picked up the phone and saw that it was Cui Feiyan who had called.
Huang Xiaolong instantly recalled the various scenes where he and Cui Feiyan had acquainted, as well as some intimate encounters with her.
Thinking of these, he felt quite warm.
He answered the call.
“Xiaolong~~” Cui Feiyan’s voice was very soft.
“Hmm. Feiyan, what can I help you with?” Huang Xiaolong smiled.
“Can’t I find you if I don’t have anything to do?” The arrogant female CEO surprisingly started behaving coquettishly.
“No, you can contact me anytime. Have you been feeling unwell recently, needing my massages again? Alright, you can book a room, change into a leather skirt, and I’ll drive over immediately.” Huang Xiaolong smirked and offered.
“Tsk~~ Xiaolong, you’re becoming naughtier. Actually… I… I… just wanted… I just miss you. So, I want to take you out for dinner.” Cui Feiyan said blushingly.
“Alright, I am free tonight, I’ll accompany you for dinner, then give you a massage afterward.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
“Tsk~~ Who needs a room with you.” Cui Feiyan faux reproached him, and then lowered her voice, “I… I have my own apartment. Why would I need to book a hotel room?”
Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaolong burst out laughing; he had a promising night ahead!
The time was ripe to win over this iceberg-cold, haughty female CEO, and make her his obedient wife!
Both of them agreed on a place for dinner.
When it was about time, Huang Xiaolong dressed in new clothes, whistling cheerfully, drove his BYD F3 directly to the place where he and Cui Feiyan had arranged to meet!
