Chapter 73 The Eve of the Martial Arts Tournament
He Xiao waited anxiously for a whole night but Lu Shaoang didn't show up. He was so anxious that he kept turning around in place.
"Why hasn't the captain come back yet? He said he would be back soon, so I should have followed him. What if...what if something happens to the captain, I won't be able to live!"
"Brother, can you please calm down for a while? You've been wandering around for almost a day. We have no other choice but to wait for the captain to contact us." Li Haotian couldn't help but said, "Besides, are you too anxious? What could happen to the captain? Maybe he's trying to coax his wife."
"What nonsense are you talking about? The captain hasn't gotten married yet. Don't talk nonsense, or you might lose your life." He Xiao said seriously.
"Brother, stop pretending. Who in the Flying Eagle Army doesn't know that our Hades Gate was blown up by the captain's wife? If the captain didn't acquiesce, who would dare to mess around in this Hades Gate?"
He Xiao:……
I knew I couldn't hide anything from them, the captain's reputation...
"Well... we can't talk nonsense. We are not sure about the captain's current situation. Let's wait for his news." He Xiao said with some guilt.
The martial arts competition will be held tomorrow. If it had been before, the Hades Gate would not have taken it seriously, but today is different. The Hades Gate was blown up and the captain has not returned yet. He Xiao is almost getting anxious.
The communicator suddenly stood up and said, "Report, there is news."
He Xiao immediately took it and asked anxiously: "Boss, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, don't worry about me." Lu Shaoang said lazily.
Lu Shaoang knew He Xiao's character. If he didn't go back for a day, he would be anxious and unable to sleep. He called He Xiao through the internal channel.
He Xiao: "Boss, what about the martial arts competition? It's about to start, and we haven't even discussed our strategy yet? Everyone is waiting for you!"
Lu Shaoang looked up at Su Jinyi who was treating Mo Ye's wound, raised his lips and said: "Training will continue as usual. I will go back."
He had finally gotten injured, and wanted Su Jinyi to help him "properly" treat it. After all... opportunities are hard to come by, and once lost, they will never come back.
Mo Ye felt Lu Shaoang's gaze and said coldly: "Why are you looking at me? I know I'm handsome, and there's no need for you to look at me with hungry eyes, right?"
"Oh, it's no use if you like me, I don't like men!"
Lu Shaoang: ...Who gave him the confidence?
Lu Shaoang automatically ignored Mo Ye's noise, looked at Su Jin gently and said, "Yi Yi, I also need to treat my wound." His tone sounded a little aggrieved.
Mo Ye was disgusted by him and wanted to vomit. He made an exaggerated expression and imitated Lu Shaoang's tone: "Yi Yi~, I also need to treat my wound~~~~"
Su Jinyi:……
Su Jin glanced at Lu Shaoang. She had seen the two men's ability to be weird. But seeing that he looked like he had suffered a great injustice, she couldn't say no.
"Wait." Su Jin threw down these two words, but the hand that was treating Mo Ye's wound unconsciously quickened its pace.
Lu Shaoang looked at her faster hand speed with a smile on his face. It seemed that his journey to pursue his wife was not very long. At least... there was still hope.
After Su Jinyi treated his wound, Lu Shaoang left. He knew that Ziyun Sect was also going to participate in the martial arts competition and didn't want to disrupt their rhythm here.
The most important thing is that he should know when to quit. This matter should be done step by step and he should not let Yi Yi think that he is a nuisance.
The venue for the martial arts competition is at the top of the mountain, and each gang needs to walk there by themselves. There are a total of 6,366 steps from the bottom of the mountain to the top. It would take an ordinary person at least two days to climb them.
However, since there are still many elderly people in the gang who are not suitable for long-distance mountain climbing, an escalator has been built here. However, many gangs will climb the mountain on foot in order to show that they are strong.
Su Jinyi felt that climbing the mountain would not bring any physical benefits and would not achieve the effect of physical exercise, so he decisively chose to take the escalator.
Lin Jiangye didn't want to be too tired, so he pulled Li Cheng to take the escalator with her. Mo Ye, as the face of Ziyun Sect, took a few people to climb the mountain.
Most people still chose to climb the mountain, secretly comparing their climbing speed to bring honor to their gang.
A blond, blue-eyed man panted as he climbed halfway up the ladder. When he saw Lin Jiangye sitting on the escalator, he immediately mocked him:
"Sweetheart, are you here to participate in the martial arts competition as well?" He looked at Lin Jiangye's fair skin, his eyes full of greed and said: "Why don't you follow me? I have good skills, and you don't need to go to the martial arts competition to attract others. I will take you in and guarantee that you will be satisfied. How about it?" The man did not forget to show off his muscles that were already wet with sweat.
Lin Jiangye was about to get angry, but Li Cheng held him in his arms.
Li Cheng said coldly: "I don't need you to spy on my people. I hope you can live longer." He emphasized the words "longer".
The man shuddered at Li Cheng's aura, glanced at Lin Jiangye cautiously, and still didn't give up. It was not easy to find such a handsome duck in Serdo, and he didn't want to give up easily, but... he looked at Li Cheng and had to move forward reluctantly.
Lin Jiangye frowned: "He is so disgusting."
Li Cheng patted his head and said lovingly: "He will never appear in front of you again."
Lin Jiangye felt a little better, and then he looked at Su Jinyi again, worriedly: "Boss, the people inside are more terrifying than that man, what if... what if they target you?"
Su Jinyi chuckled: "If you've set your sights on me, just kill me. Why are you still worried about me?"
Lin Jiangye didn't care about the danger he was in, but he was worried about Su Jinyi. In Lin Jiangye's subconscious mind, Su Jinyi was still a little girl who needed their protection.
"Xiao Ye, anyone who sets his sights on Yi Yi is the one with the shortest lifespan in the world. Don't worry, she will grow up." Li Cheng gently smoothed his brows.
Only then did Lin Jiangye feel relieved.
"Boss, the number of people in the Tiger Hall has increased several times compared to before," He Xiao frowned and said, "It seems that... except for the Purple Cloud Sect, which has the same number of people as in previous years, the number of people in other gangs has almost doubled."
"Boss, I'm afraid this year won't be peaceful. Do you want me to bring some more people over..."
Lu Shaoang suddenly asked: "Is Ziyun Sect still the same as usual?"
"Yes"
Lu Shaoang said thoughtfully: "No need to bring more people, keep an eye on the Ziyun Sect, and notify me immediately if there is any danger."
He Xiao: ...Boss, do you want to listen to what you are saying? Or you can just say it directly and keep an eye on your wife? Is there any need to beat around the bush?
The Gate of Hades had climbed to the top of the mountain before dark, checked out all possible hidden dangers, and made foolproof preparations.
Gather at the top of the mountain and wait for the competition to begin.
As soon as Su Jin got on the escalator, she felt someone was staring at her, but those were members of the Flying Eagle Army, whom she had seen before. They were obviously sent by Lu Shaoang to protect her.
But... there was another person, very strange, without any murderous aura, but he was following me all the way.
When Su Jin turned around, a shadow flashed by quickly, and the movement was quite agile.
