Chapter 542: Sheng Xiao Helping His Wife Grab the Umbrella (2)
Was this considered a slaughterhouse?
Yu Huang broke a tree branch and squatted on the ground to draw two matchstick figures.
The stick figure on the left was her. The stick figure on the right had a leg in the middle. It was obvious that it was a man. Yu Huang drew a heart between the two stick figures. She pointed at the stick figure with a tree branch and said to Evelyn, “This is me and Sheng Xiao. We are husband and wife.”
How could Evelyn not understand when she saw the painting?
So she was overthinking.
Yu Huang had no such feelings for her!
Damn language barrier!
Evelyn stared at Yu Huang with resentment, but she was still unwilling to accept it.
It was not like married couples couldn’t divorce!
Evelyn squatted down and used a tree branch to draw a cross on the heart between the two stickmen. She looked up and asked Yu Huang, “Will you guys get a divorce? If you will, I… I’m still willing to look for you.” It was rare to meet a girl who she was satisfied with in everything. Evelyn was unwilling to lose Yu Huang like this.
…Yu Huang’s expression was awkward.
Sheng Xiao looked at Yu Huang coldly.
Yu Huang suddenly held Sheng Xiao’s face and tiptoed to kiss his lips. Yu Huang leaned against Sheng Xiao’s chest and lowered her head to say to Evelyn, “This is my answer.”
Evelyn suddenly threw away the tree branch and stood up. She stomped her feet and scolded, “Yu Huang, you better never appear in front of me ever again. If you dare to let me see you, I’ll tie you up and lock you up at home!” With that, Evelyn turned around and left.
Seeing that Evelyn had finally left, Yu Huang heaved a sigh of relief.
“What did you do to make her covet you so much?” Sheng Xiao’s tone was cold, but he grabbed Yu Huang’s wrist tightly.
Yu Huang felt wronged.
“I didn’t do anything. I don’t know why she would misunderstand me like that. We don’t speak the same language. What could I possibly do to her?”
Sheng Xiao snorted and suddenly asked, “Have you held hands before?”
Yu Huang was stunned. Then, she rubbed her nose awkwardly and lowered her head to look at the ground without daring to say a word.
Sheng Xiao said expressionlessly, “It seems like you have.”
Yu Huang hurriedly explained, “It was too cold back then. I thought she just wanted to hold hands and warm up…”
Sheng Xiao interrupted Yu Huang’s explanation impatiently. “Have you hugged her before?”
Yu Huang thought of the hug last night and felt even more guilty.
Sheng Xiao was furious. “Yu Huang, we’ve only been apart for a few days, but you’re already holding hands and hugging someone else behind my back. Your ex-fiancé is also still in love with you. The participants from the Upper World are also in love with you. You’re indeed a superstar. You’re so charming.”
After saying these sarcastic words, Sheng Xiao turned around and left.
Scumbag!
She was a jerk who didn’t know how charming she was!
Yu Huang quickly caught up with Sheng Xiao. She wanted to hold Sheng Xiao’s hand, but Sheng Xiao refused to let her touch it. The two of them pulled and tugged as they moved forward when the hot weather suddenly arrived.
Sensing that the weather was rising, Yu Huang was about to mobilize her spiritual power to keep cool when a white cherry blossom umbrella suddenly appeared above her head.
Yu Huang raised her head and stared at the umbrella in surprise. “You brought an umbrella?”
Sheng Xiao held the umbrella above Yu Huang’s head. The shadow protected Yu Huang’s delicate body while Sheng Xiao was completely exposed to the hot sun.
Sweat flowed from his forehead to his eyes. Sheng Xiao wiped his sweat and explained, “I didn’t bring it. I snatched it.”
“Huh?” Yu Huang was extremely shocked. “You actually know how to snatch others’ things.”
Sheng Xiao remained silent.
On the way south yesterday, Sheng Xiao met a female Beast Tamer. The lady was a Master. The weather was very hot at that time. The lady walked very quickly with an umbrella. She didn’t look very affected by the hot weather.
Sheng Xiao guessed that the umbrella she was holding might be a spiritual weapon that could withstand high temperature. He showed his Grand Master strength and forced the lady to give him the umbrella.
If this matter got out, Sheng Xiao’s reputation would be ruined.
Yu Huang could guess why Sheng Xiao snatched the umbrella. She was touched.
Sheng Xiao said angrily, “I risked my reputation to snatch the umbrella for you, but you went around fooling around behind my back. Yu Huang, do you have a conscience?”
“Thank you.” After a pause, Yu Huang called out awkwardly, “Hubby.”
Sheng Xiao stopped in his tracks and blushed.
After being married for so long, Yu Huang rarely called him hubby. She didn’t even call him that in bed.
Today, pigs flew.
After a while, Sheng Xiao suddenly said, “Call me that again.”
Yu Huang couldn’t call out anymore. “No.”
Sheng Xiao was disappointed, but he didn’t force her.
With Sheng Xiao accompanying her, the two of them bickered and flirted. Soon, they finished enduring the extreme weather. When the snowstorm in the afternoon stopped, Sheng Xiao carried Yu Huang and flew south. Grand Masters flew much faster than Masters. In the evening, they arrived at an abandoned city.
There was a dilapidated city wall outside the city. On the city wall, there stood three Beast Tamers.
Outside the city wall, there was also a large group of Beast Tamers.
After entering the Doomsday Battlefield for so long, this was the first time they had encountered a large group of Beast Tamers.
Yu Huang saw participants from the Holy Spirit Continent among the Beast Tamers. Among them were people she and Sheng Xiao knew.
“Your Highness,” Yu Huang called out to Beatrice, who was looking around.
Hearing the familiar voice, Beatrice immediately turned around. When she saw Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang, the aloof beauty looked excited.
Yu Huang noticed that Beatrice’s fair skin was covered in dead skin from the scorching sun. She looked a little disheveled.
But there was vigor hidden in her eyes that would never be extinguished.
She was an extremely resilient woman.
“Young Master Sheng, Master Yu Huang!” Beatrice walked towards them quickly. She only felt relieved when she saw that Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao weren’t injured.
Sheng Xiao stared at the people on the city wall. He asked Beatrice, “What is going on here?”
Beatrice said, “I’ve asked around. There are a total of 100 cities in the Doomsday Battlefield. This is the first city. The people standing on the city wall are the city guards selected by the Administration. Only participants who successfully defeat these 100 city guards are qualified to participate in the Central Pagoda’s hunting battle.”
Beatrice pointed at the leftmost city guard and said to Yu Huang, “That’s a Master.”
She pointed at the city guard in the middle and said, “That’s a Supreme Master. The one on the right is a Grand Master.”
After hearing Beatrice’s introduction, Yu Huang said thoughtfully, “In other words, if we want to successfully reach the Central Pagoda and top the Ten Thousand Ranking List, we must first successfully defeat these 100 city guards? We can’t lose a single match?”
“That’s right.”
Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao looked at each other and saw the fighting spirit in each other’s eyes.
“I’ll wait for you in the Central Pagoda.” Then, Sheng Xiao suddenly jumped up and appeared in front of the broken city wall.
Sheng Xiao nodded at him. “Sheng Xiao, the Grand Master Beast Tamer of the Holy Spirit Continent, is here to challenge you!”
The Grand Master city guard was wearing a translator device in his ear. He stared at Sheng Xiao for a moment. After the device translated Sheng Xiao’s words, he nodded and said calmly, “City Guard No. 100 accepts the challenge!”
