Chapter 1358 The Terrifying Great Devil
Mengmeng and the other girls contacted their old classmates.
Mengmeng made a call and said, “Muen, shall we have dinner together tonight?”
“Hey, Mengmeng, you’re back?” Li Muen said in a high-pitched voice, “You didn’t even take the final exam, and I couldn’t get in touch with you no matter what. Did you go to outer space?”
“Hahaha, you’re right. I did go to outer space,” Mengmeng said with a smile.
However, sometimes no one believed the truth.
“All right, all right, let’s stop joking. Mengmeng, what will you do when you go to high school?” Li Muen asked.
“I’ll just go. The procedures of the school have been completed. It doesn’t matter whether I take the exam or not. Anyway, I’ll rank first if I take the exam,” Mengmeng said indifferently.
“I like your self-confidence.” Li Muen harrumphed and smiled again. “I did very well in the exam. I’ll still be in the advanced class. Maybe we will be in the same class.”
“I just called Teacher Bai. The girls and I will be in Class 11, Grade One,” Mengmeng said.
“That’s a pity. I’ll be in Class 21.” Li Muen sighed and said, “I thought we would be in the same class. Alas, forget it. It’s fine anyway. We don’t know how long you can stay in school.”
“Yeah.” Mengmeng said, “See you later.”
Li Muen said with a silly smile, “Okay. I’ll wait for you. I usually can’t go out now, but as long as you ask me out, I can even stay out.”
“Hah.”
After hanging up the phone, Mengmeng and the other girls got in an extended Bentley. Mu Xue drove the car, and Chu Qingyi was in the passenger seat.
Driving on the street, they looked at the pedestrians on both sides of the road. Some of them were smiling and full of energy. Some were wearing suits and leather shoes while frowning slightly. It seemed that they were worried about work. Some looked a little numb and at a loss as if they could not stand the pressure of life. There were also young couples walking hand in hand. However, the most touching ones were the old couples walking side by side.
The complexity in life was presented.
Of course, this was the observation in Chu Qingyi’s eyes.
Mengmeng and the others behind were chatting. In their eyes, the city was full of vitality. The streets were familiar, the smell was familiar, and they were in a good mood when they were about to hang around.
“Mengmeng! Sister Nao! Nina, Felina!”
When they arrived at Li Muen’s place, she and her mother were standing at the gate of the community. After seeing Mengmeng and the others, Li Muen ran over excitedly.
“Hey, Mengmeng, you’ve grown taller again. You’re really slim.” Li Muen looked her up and down, quietly approached Mengmeng, and whispered, “Your boobs are also bigger, not as small as before.”
Although her voice was low, everyone present has heard.
Even Mu Xue and Chu Qingyi, who were in the car, heard her clearly.
In the car, Mu Xue was rocking back and forth with laughter.
Nina, Felina, and Yue Xiaonao all had strange looks on their faces.
Mengmeng’s face darkened and she rolled her eyes. “What are you talking about? We’re in public.”
“Mengmeng is much taller.”
Li Muen’s mother came over and said with a smile, “You are getting more and more beautiful. Muen wants to go out these days. I thought she was only using you as an excuse, but it turns out that you’re really back. Since Muen will go out with you guys, I’m reassured.”
“Ma’am, don’t worry.” Mengmeng said, “We’ll go out for a meal and come back after shopping for a while.”
“Well, go ahead.” Li Muen’s mother waved goodbye with a smile.
Seeing that even the driver and the bodyguard in the passenger seat were women in the car, Li Muen’s mother was even more relieved.
Li Muen looked at Yue Xiaonao carefully and said, “Sister Nao, you seem to have gained some weight,”
“What do you mean by that?!” Yue Xiaonao’s face changed slightly. “I think that you can’t speak properly. Am I heavy? Are you kidding me?”
“Still wouldn’t admit it?” Mengmeng said with a smile, “I said you gained some weight last time, and you ended up getting heavier.”
“I’ve only gained a few pounds.” Yue Xiaonao snorted.
“A few pounds still count.” Li Muen said seriously, “Sister Nao, it’s not good to be too heavy. You should eat less.”
“That won’t be possible.” Yue Xiaonao heaved a long sigh and said, “I’m crazy for food.”
“Nina and Felina have grown taller. I’m five centimeters taller than before. At first, I was proud of myself. I thought I would be taller than you, but I didn’t expect you to raise yourselves faster,” Li Muen said.
“That’s why I said we all should eat more. We’re at a growing phase.” Yue Xiaonao came to a final conclusion.
They went to the restaurant where they would meet their classmates.
They chatted a lot along the way.
“You didn’t come for the final exam. It terrified me,” Li Muen said, “I thought you were dropping out of school.
“Teacher Bai Yilin, as well as several other teachers, were reluctant to part with us when we left. Even I was crying by then.
“There was a graduation party. Teacher Bai invited us to a restaurant. It was very lively. Everyone was talking about you. I guess if you were there, many male classmates would confess their love to you.
“When I observed the high school students back then, those boys and girls held hands and often came to our junior high to date. Now we’ll be going to high school. I heard that many high school students would be dating,” Li Muen said with curiosity.
“Isn’t that a normal thing to do?” Yue Xiaonao said, “You had several pursuers in junior high. If you had said yes to one of them, you would be dating as well, wouldn’t you?”
“They weren’t good enough for me. They’re not excellent. The most important thing is that they’re not handsome. I like handsome and nice guys,” Li Muen said.
Then, she became curious. “Mengmeng, what kind of guy do you like?”
Swoosh!
Mu Xue pricked up her ears.
“If she tells the answer to this question, it will be huge news for Master!”
“You don’t need to ask her that. If you do, the answer will only be someone like her dad,” Felina spoke precisely.
“That’s true.” Nina smiled and said, “All these years, I haven’t found out what kind of guy Mengmeng likes. At the very least, it’s very, very difficult for a guy to make Uncle Zhang nod his head in agreement.”
“Agree? That’ll be impossible!” Yue Xiaoshi cried out, “He’ll never agree. I think he’s likely to give that guy a few slaps.”
“…”
Listening to the conversations of the girls behind her, Mu Xue enjoyed it very much.
“What should one’s youth be like? This is the way it should be like!”
Chu Qingyi listened a bit absent-mindedly. She seemed to be thinking about something else.
She seemed to understand why everyone liked Mengmeng so much.
Because she would inadvertently make the atmosphere cheerful.
The two of them escorted the girls to the restaurant. The other students were waiting in the lounge on the first floor of the restaurant.
When they gathered together, the place became even more lively.
Mu Xue and Chu Qingyi rejected their invitation and stayed outside.
“How do you feel here?” Mu Xue asked.
“Pretty good.” Chu Qingyi gave a simple reply.
“After experiencing the outside world, we know that the ordinary society here is also very precious,” Mu Xue said.
“It is indeed precious.” Chu Qingyi lightly nodded her head.
She also knew that there were many ordinary people in the Cultivation World, and even quite a large proportion of them. However, this world here consisted of the martial arts world, worldlets, Kunlun Immortal World, Ancient Mine, and King’s Domain. Most people here were ordinary people with a small number of martial artists and even cultivators.
This sort of nearly perfect system was extremely rare.
“We should be able to stay here for a while this time. Your villa is on the right side of Jiang Yanlan’s. I’ll take you to the mall in the evening to buy some clothes here,” Mu Xue said.
Zhang Han asked her to take Chu Qingyi with her. Mu Xue had done her best.
Chu Qingyi was silent for a moment before expressing her thanks.
She scanned her surroundings with her divine sense and found that people were not paying with crystal stones. Some even made a deal by scanning the QR code with their mobile phones. She didn’t know what they used to make the deal. Later, she saw bills one after another in a store.
After talking for a while, Mu Xue stopped talking and closed her eyes to rest.
On the other hand, Chu Qingyi was silent before she suddenly asked, “Has Master been living here all the time?”
“Huh?” Mu Xue opened her eyes and thought for a moment. “Yes, he has been living here all the time. What’s wrong?”
“Has he gone out before?” Chu Qingyi kept asking.
“Why are you asking so many questions?” Mu Xue rolled her eyes.
“Just out of curiosity,” said Chu Qingyi.
“This is where Master stays. This city is called Xiangjiang. It is where he started to make a name for himself in the martial arts world. It seems that his strength was not particularly strong before,” Mu Xue said.
“No,” Chu Qingyi retorted. “He has always been very strong.”
“How do you know that?” Mu Xue fixed her eyes on her.
“Because I got his martial arts heritage 16 years ago in the Cultivation World,” Chu Qingyi answered seriously.
Mu Xue was speechless.
“So he’s always been very powerful,” Chu Qingyi added.
This made Mu Xue wear a strange expression. She stared at Chu Qingyi for a few seconds, which made the latter a bit scared.
“What is she doing?”
All of a sudden, Mu Xue’s expression changed. She put on the demeanor of a senior and said lightly, “Since you already know, then I won’t hide the truth anymore.”
Swoosh!
Chu Qingyi’s eyes lit up.
“Am I finally getting to know something about Master?”
Under her expectant gaze, Mu Xue was silent for five seconds before she said slowly, “Our master is a great devil! I saw it. I know this and so do you, but Zhao Feng doesn’t know it, and Jiang Yanlan doesn’t either. Among the four of us, only you and I know some inside information.”
“What inside information?” Chu Qingyi was even more curious.
“Yes…” Mu Xue was about to say something when she suddenly leaned back in her seat and said, “If you want to know my stuff, you have to tell me yours first.”
Chu Qingyi was a bit speechless and focused.
But she couldn’t suppress the curiosity in her heart.
She briefly told her story, “Sixteen years ago, I was injured seriously and almost died. I entered a cultivator’s abode by chance and got some stunning medicinal pellets as well as some spirit treasures and many ancient books. Later, I activated the martial arts heritage of adobe’s predecessors and saw the back of Master. He looked so extraordinary, domineering, and unworldly. The back of him holding his sword kept replaying in my mind. That’s why I’ve been looking for him all these years.”
“It’s the first time I’ve heard you talk so much at once.”
Mu Xue sat up straight and said, “It’s quite an amazing story. Let’s talk about it in detail later. Now I’ll tell you what I know.”
When Chu Qingyi heard this, she leaned forward slightly and listened carefully.
Mu Xue said, “At that time, our Master, Zhang Hanyang, was equally famous as me. I suffered a bit in a Relic, so I used a great treasure to find someplace. Unexpectedly, when Master was careless, I saw a picture in his memory. He…”
Speaking of this, Mu Xue looked a little nervous and her tone became low and slow.
“There were corpses everywhere. Hundreds of thousands of men are dead. That’s not right. What I saw might be a million corpses. Some were several meters high, some were dozens of meters high, and they all looked different. But they all had one thing in common, which was that I also felt pressure from those corpses. However, the one who stepped on these corpses was a man with murderous intent, which was our Master. So I am sure that our master used to be a great devil! A horrible great devil!”
