Chapter 290: Young People Show Off PDA, Regardless of the Situation
To be honest, Yu Huang acting coquettish was scarier than her being angry. Sheng Xiao had goosebumps.
Sheng Xiao touched the goosebumps on the back of his hand secretly. Then, he put on his gloves and cut a piece of pork ribs for Yu Huang with a knife.
He placed the lamb ribs in his bowl and used a knife to carefully remove the meat from the ribs before placing them all on Yu Huang’s plate.
“Here.”
His meticulousness made Lin Jiansheng envious. A dangerous thought surfaced in Lin Jiansheng’s mind: He wanted to become a woman and find a boyfriend.
He took a sip of the medicine and felt a chill down his spine.
Young people nowadays were really mushy when they fell in love.
It was nothing like their era. Back then, they liked a person very reservedly. They acted coquettishly and showed their love behind closed doors.
Now, they were showing off their love in broad daylight and did not care about the feelings of the elderly.
Yu Huang stared at the mutton in her bowl. She felt that it was strange when she acted coquettishly to Sheng Xiao. She picked up her chopsticks and ate the mutton quietly. She was so embarrassed that she did not say anything else.
After having her fill, Yu Huang took off her gloves and picked up a wet tissue to wipe her hands.
She inserted her fingers into Yu Huang’s smooth fur and massaged the back of his neck while saying to Lin Jiansheng, “Mentor, I want to go to Broken Cliff with you.”
Lin Jiansheng had drunk a few glasses of wine and seemed to be drunk. Hearing that, he looked at Yu Huang for a few seconds before burping.
“Broken Cliff? Sure.”
Lin Jiansheng put down the wine glass and took a bone that he had eaten clean from before from the plate that was filled with leftover food. He placed it in his mouth again and bit it. He kept biting and biting, but he could not bite off any meat.
Sheng Xiao said to Yu Huang, “Mentor, you’re drunk.” He was so drunk that he looked like a dog gnawing on a piece of pork ribs.
Yu Huang pressed her hand to her forehead and shook her head helplessly. “Settle the bill.”
“Okay.”
Sheng Xiao got up and went to settle the bill. When he returned, he helped Lin Jiansheng up from behind the table with Yu Huang. Yu Huang asked Lin Jiansheng, “Mentor, which hotel are you staying in?”
Lin Jiansheng leaned against Sheng Xiao’s shoulder weakly and said nothing.
Sheng Xiao said, “Bring him to our place for the night.” There were two bedrooms in the presidential suite, one big and one small. If they brought Lin Jiansheng to their suite, they would have to squeeze on one bed.
Yu Huang nodded. The two of them carried Lin Jiansheng back to their room. Lying on the bed, Lin Jiansheng slept soundly and was not on his guard at all.
After they had barbeque, everyone smelled like barbeque. Sheng Xiao said to Yu Huang, “I’ll take a shower. Take care of Mentor first.”
“Okay.”
Yu Huang poured a glass of water for Lin Jiansheng and brought it to the bed. She stared at the sleepy man on the bed and said expressionlessly, “Stop acting, Mentor.”
Lin Jiansheng did not react.
Yu Huang continued to expose Lin Jiansheng’s disguise. “The Holy Spirit Continent has a preferential policy for high-level Clear Spirit Masters. Every country’s first-tier cities have a free hostel for high-level Purifying Spirit Masters. However, the Rakshasa Empire is the only exception. Mentor, isn’t it just to save on the hotel fees for one night? Do you have to act to this extent?”
The person on the bed slowly opened his eyes.
Lin Jiansheng scratched his bald head in embarrassment and asked Yu Huang, “How could you tell that I was acting?” He felt that his acting skills were not bad.
“Father said before that you loved to drink the most when you were young. There was never a time when he could drink more than you.” How could a mere seven glasses of medicinal wine make Lin Jiansheng drunk?
Lin Jiansheng sat up on the bed and sneered. He explained, “Your mentor is embarrassingly poor now. The Spirit Nurturing Drum is an eighth-grade spirit weapon. If I don’t spend money sparingly, how can I participate in the auction?”
Yu Huang sneered. She did not believe Lin Jiansheng at all. “You’re a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master. How can you be poor?”
In this world, a Purifying Spirit Master was also known as a Wealth Beckoning Master. If a Purifying Spirit Master could purify all living creatures, naturally, there would be Beast Tamers with low beast forms who would pay Lin Jiansheng to help them.
Lin Jiansheng was the president of the Prosperous Capital’s Purifying Spirit Master. Yu Huang did not believe that he was poor.
Lin Jiansheng couldn’t quibble anymore. He rolled his eyes and said, “I just love money. If I can spend less on myself, I’ll cheat others. Even if you look down on me, your mentor, you won’t be able to change your mentor anymore.”
Yu Huang was caught between laughter and tears. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Lin Jiansheng pointed at the cup of water. “Pour me a cup of water.”
“Okay.”
Yu Huang poured a glass of water for Lin Jiansheng.
Lin Jiansheng drank the water and asked Yu Huang, “Did you gain anything from this trip to the Cong Lang Mystic Realm?”
Yu Huang took out her identity card and handed it to Lin Jiansheng.
Lin Jiansheng held the document and lowered his head to see two lines of energy light up on Yu Huang’s document. His hand trembled, and he raised his head to stare at Yu Huang in disbelief as he exclaimed, “You’re a Master?”
Yu Huang nodded. “Yes, I’m a Master.”
“Your speed is really…” Lin Jiansheng held his forehead and lowered his head while laughing. He lamented,”Everyone says that Young Master Sheng is the number one genius on the continent. I think he’s still a long way off from you. ”
Yu Huang took back her identity card and carefully put it into her wallet before saying, “The Cong Lang Mystic Realm has been destroyed.”
Lin Jiansheng was shocked. “How could it be destroyed? What happened?”
Yu Huang directly took out Cong Lang’s Beast Heart. The moment that Beast Heart appeared, Lin Jiansheng felt a powerful and pure energy from it.
“Whose Beast Heart is it?”
Yu Huang said, “It’s from Prime Emperor Cong Lang.”
Lin Jiansheng took a light breath. “Impressive. Other people go in to absorb Prime Emperor Cong Lang’s energy, but you stole his energy source.”
Good heavens!
Yu Huang had to explain. “It wasn’t stolen. The Prime Emperor gave it to me.”
Hearing Yu Huang’s explanation, Lin Jiansheng expressed his doubt. “Why would he give it to you? Could it be because you’re beautiful?”
At the mention of beautiful, Lin Jiansheng couldn’t help but reach out and pinch Yu Huang’s cheeks. He said, “You’ve done a good job at making this human skin mask. It’s even more exquisite than your father’s mask. It’s just like a real person’s skin when you touch it. You can’t even feel any burn marks. Who did you find?”
Yu Huang was caught between laughter and tears. “What human skin mask?! This is my own face.”
“You regained your looks?”
“Okay.”
Lin Jiansheng asked, “Are the baby fish in the Cong Lang Mystic Realm really that magical?”
“It’s not the baby fish’s effect, but tribulation lightning,” Yu Huang told Lin Jiansheng. “The tribulation lightning I suffered this time was extremely powerful. There was actually resentment from the Black Qing Sky Dragon Race hidden in the lightning. After I was struck by the lightning tribulation, my body was seriously injured, and my skin ruptured. Later, when my muscles recombined, my appearance recovered.”
“The tribulation lightning has the aura of the heavens. Perhaps this is why it helped me recover my appearance.”
Lin Jiansheng sighed with emotion. “This is really a blessing in disguise.”
He touched Yu Huang’s face carefully again to confirm that it was really Yu Huang’s face. He was instantly relieved. “This is great. Now that you’ve recovered your looks, no one will dare to say that you’re not worthy of that boy from the Sheng family!”
Lin Jiansheng knew that some people were secretly slandering Yu Huang for being ugly and not worthy of the Sheng family’s chosen one. Naturally, he felt upset.
Now, Yu Huang had recovered her looks, and no one could criticize her again.
“Rest early. After the auction is over, we’ll go to Broken Cliff.” Lin Jiansheng had long wanted to bring Yu Huang to Broken Cliff to train in seclusion.
Yu Huang said, “I have to go back to the academy first. After I give the Prime Emperor Beast Heart to the Principal, I will accompany you on a long journey.”
Lin Jiansheng was shocked. “You want to hand the Prime Emperor’s Beast Heart to the dean? Keep it for yourself. It will definitely be useful when you break through the cultivation limits in the future.”
Yu Huang shook her head. She said, “Mentor, you once said the cultivation path depends on diligence. Therefore, be it learning knowledge or cultivating, you have to take it one step at a time. You have to walk a path and see the scenery along the way before you can appreciate the scenery.”
Hearing Yu Huang’s words, Lin Jiansheng felt a little ashamed. “Hearing you say such things, I actually feel like I’m listening to a senior impart her knowledge. You’re young, but you’re levelheaded and mature.”
She was as mature as an old witch.
Yu Huang smiled but didn’t say anything.
“Rest early, Mentor.”
That night, Yu Huang slept with Sheng Xiao.
This was not the first time the two of them had slept on the same bed. They did not feel uncomfortable lying together. However, Sheng Xiao controlled himself. He did not dare to get too close to Yu Huang. He was afraid that he would lose control.
Yu Huang noticed Sheng Xiao’s attitude, so she did not tease him.
She would let him off first. When they got married, she could tease him however she wanted.
