Chapter 1000 - 998: Betrayal
"Xiaoting, I’m discussing serious matters with you. Women are the most dangerous, and they are Chen Tianlong’s weak spot. If Celestial Pill Sect sneak in a spy as a woman, he’ll be done for."
"Oh? Didn’t someone just call him a punk? Why are you concerned about him now?" Lin Xiaoting deliberately countered.
"Hmph, who’s concerned about him? I’m worried if he dies, I won’t be able to settle scores with him later." The Red-eyed Eagle retorted.
"Alright, the president is really farsighted, I admire that, haha." Lin Xiaoting said and then leaned forward. The two chatted about other things.
In the eyes of others, these two are definitely ruthless, but in their own space, they’re just two eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls with lives they yearn for and boys they like.
Same Black Alliance headquarters, in a certain villa.
Sitting in the hall are two people, looking like they’re in their thirties or forties, these are the Black Alliance’s Second-in-Command Thunder Tiger and Third-in-Command Niu Xiaosan.
Thunder Tiger has been training in a Demon Skill recently, specializing in absorbing Evil Qi, it’s weirdly enhancing him. In less than three months, he shot up from Celestial Dao six stars to Celestial Dao five stars.
In fact, besides the Demon Skill, he also had someone buy a Super Qi Gathering Pill from the Huaxia Cultivator Association.
This Super Qi Gathering Pill had been waited on for five years before finally getting it, spending three billion nine hundred million, it really hurt. But to be able to unconditionally rise two levels in Celestial Dao between one star and five stars, for a Divine Medicine, no cost is too high for Thunder Tiger.
After all, wealth is external, you can’t take it with you in life or death, if one’s strength isn’t enough, and they get slapped dead, what’s the point of having so much money?
"Old Three, I think the president is going too far. Last time Old Five and Old Six died, it was all Chen Tianlong’s doing, yet she still protects him. Does she even care about us Black Alliance brothers?" Thunder Tiger was clearly instigating, knowing Niu Xiaosan is the Gang Leader’s third most powerful in Celestial Dao.
If he assists, almost no one in the Black Alliance can resist.
Originally, Thunder Tiger thought of swallowing Black Alliance alone, but recently found out that the Red-eyed Eagle chick also broke through, her strength matching his own.
That’s not the crux, Red-eyed Eagle’s unique Heart Method makes him afraid to act hastily, so he’s currently working on convincing Niu Xiaosan, trying to recruit him.
"Haha, you know the president is just a kid, she’s always growing. Young people are a bit reckless, be understanding. After all, Mei Zifeng was kind to us; she’s his only child, we must not fail him." Niu Xiaosan was clearly on the Red-eyed Eagle’s side, showing such loyalty, making Thunder Tiger even more frustrated.
After several hints, Niu Xiaosan remained stubborn, Thunder Tiger could only abandon the thought. But this guy knows too much, definitely needing a time to eliminate him, only dead people keep secrets.
Ice City, Yannian Snow Mountain.
The branches Chen Tianlong gathered had already caught fire, everyone gathered around the fire for a while, feeling warm. Snow fell outside, while inside they ate dry rations, Lu Xiaoyu even brought a chicken leg.
"Tianlong, do you want a chicken leg?" Lu Xiaoyu took a few bites and suddenly realized everyone was watching.
"..." Chen Tianlong was speechless, with his girlfriend right there, wanting to eat but not daring.
"Silly Xiaoyu, who wants to eat your saliva? You glutton, just eat quietly yourself instead of making such loud noises." Lin Wushuang gave her a look and said.
"Hehe, if I don’t eat loudly, how will I make you all drool?" Lu Xiaoyu replied nonchalantly.
Everyone went speechless, taking out their own biscuits and water to eat.
The snow was heavy, not knowing when it’d stop, and now it’s after three p.m.; given the circumstances, they should be spending the night in the cave.
"Everyone, prepared for the night yet? We might be stuck here overnight." Chen Tianlong said with a wry smile.
"I’m ready, just didn’t bathe though. If it’s alright, I’ll sleep next to you." Speaking was still Lu Xiaoyu, the ambiguity in her words seemed unnoticed by her, while Liu Ting and Shen Yan were embarrassed, Lu Xiaoyu was indeed bold, saying whatever she wants.
"Haha, Xiaoyu, what are you saying? I’m worried there might be beasts on the mountainside, I can’t stay with you at night, I need to keep watch." Chen Tianlong explained to break the awkwardness.
"Oh, what a shame, I was going to say I’m warm, give you a hug at night, keep us cozy."
"Xiaoyu, stop talking nonsense, or I’ll knock you." Lin Wushuang noticed Wu Mengting’s discomfort and immediately put a stop to Lu Xiaoyu’s words. While others might not see it, Lin Wushuang couldn’t miss that these words were for Wu Mengting, gauging her reaction.
Clearly, Wu Mengting was tolerating it, not wanting to ruin the relationship more so cause trouble for Chen Tianlong. After so much had happened, everyone matured, some things can’t solely depend on promises to last forever.
Chen Tianlong unusually stayed silent, handing a piece of beef jerky to Wu Mengting, then placing a bottle of mineral water near the fire, shaking it back and forth, trying to warm it up for Wu Mengting to drink.
Seeing such meticulous actions, the beauties fell silent, clearly showing in Chen Tianlong’s heart, whom he valued more.
Wu Mengting smiled sweetly, everything was understood without words.
Time passed slowly, the sky darkened, night arrived, and their fire was dwindling.
With no choice, Chen Tianlong set out again to gather branches.
This was snow, not rain, so the branches could still catch fire, just needed some time near the flames.
The sky was dark, the snowfall wasn’t as heavy. Chen Tianlong spoke to the girls then went out.
The sky was dark, without the reflection of the snow, the way was hard to see.
However, for Chen Tianlong, day and night were the same, running Heart Method made everything visible, his vision even better than daytime with such domineering prowess.
As usual, Chen Tianlong climbed a tree, breaking off withered branches from above.
Suddenly, a huge roar almost made Chen Tianlong fall off the tree. The surrounding wind and snow intensified, but couldn’t stop the strong Powerful Qi Wave. Chen Tianlong knew it must be a super Spirit Beast; otherwise, it wouldn’t emit such a powerful Qi Wave.
Even Chen Tianlong, already a Celestial Dao two-star expert, felt the shock; imagine what a mighty presence it was.
While searching, a giant Snow Leopard leaped from the trees, instinctively, Chen Tianlong furrowed his brow — a Celestial Dao three-star Spirit Beast.
