Chapter 164 - 54: Severing Ties on the Lake (Part 1)
Xie Yu’s drunkenness this time truly caused a significant debacle, a tremendous one indeed.
When he awoke, he was first frightened into breaking out in a cold sweat. With his reputation as the Jade Finger Killing God on the Eastern Continent, one incident of drunkenness was already enough for him to have been executed countless times.
One mistake could be understood, but to repeat it two or three times and to fall into the hands of the same person each time, that was a grave error.
Demon indeed, she really was a demon. Xie Yu reached into his bosom, finding it empty. The Dan Xuan Card he always carried was gone.
But then, he remembered the scene before his drunkenness.
Recalling his earlier encounter with Yue Jinghua, his complexion turned both red and green, and he swiftly dashed out.
Outside the annex, his palanquin had already been dismantled beyond recognition, especially the ludicrously large quilt and the luxurious bed inside, which had been moved out entirely.
Xie Yu’s face became terrifyingly grim, his fists clenched unconsciously, and an unexpected murderous intent, barely contained, loomed over him, "Yue Jinghua, you, if you really dare..."
He gave a muffled hum, and his figure darted towards the banks of Cuiwei Lake.
Cuiwei Lake is a renowned scenic spot in Shang Kingdom, located outside Poluo City, at an elevation of over five hundred meters on the hillside of Cuiwei Mountain.
Amidst mountains and dense forests where neither waterfalls nor large rivers, lakes or seas exist, this patch of emerald lake sparkles like a jade, showcasing the marvels of the Creator.
Every autumn, when it’s time to admire the maple leaves, the shores are covered with millet-sized chrysanthemums, the trees adorned with yellow maples, and the sky bathed in golden light, offering an incomparably splendid sight.
