"This stuff is really effective!" Zhang nglong temporarily ignored the cursing outside and the provocative sounds coming from the toilet.
An entire night of soaking had stabilized Gu Xiao's body at Fourth-grade Spiritual Body. As for Zhang nglong himself, his body was gradually advancing towards a Level Seven perfect being.
"My physical fitness has improved significantly. Absorbing two drops tonight shouldn't be a problem," Zhang nglong muttered to himself as he looked at the pool that had entirely turned into clear water.
Even though the energy of the Cold Marrow Jade Dew was exhausted, the entire room still shimred with a frost that had been silent for millions of years, with sharp icicles everywhere. Zhang nglong released a surge of Strange Fire energy, and the room's temperature returned to normal.
Zhang nglong opened the door and walked to the toilet.
The room where two people were imprisoned was very close to Zhang nglong's training room, so the whole night it was like a pitch-black ice cellar, and the two shivered in this cold temperature for an entire night.
They were not like Zhang nglong, and didn't have Strange Fire for protection. The temperature of the Cold Marrow Jade Dew was not sothing they could endure with just flesh and blood, even using the energy inside their bodies to fight the cold almost reached their physical limits.
They even had to hold each other for warmth. A whole night passed, and they had dark circles under their eyes, looking almost like two over-indulging drug addicts.
The door opened, and a beam of glaring light made the two swearing individuals close their eyes.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what an overflowing bromance," Zhang nglong said with a peculiar expression upon seeing the two still hugging each other, adding another strange couple to his list.
Monts later, Zhang nglong displayed an embarrassed expression, "Sorry, sorry, did I interrupt you? I shouldn't have!"
At this mont, as Hong Yang and Mu Xiang felt the surrounding temperature starting to rise, they finally ca to their senses and realized their ambiguous and inappropriate posture. They imdiately let go of each other.
"What's going on?" Zhang nglong said, "Continue, don't suppress your nature just because I'm here. What century is this now? I'm very progressive; although I can't accept it myself, I don't discriminate against it. After all, different strokes for different folks!"
"Gu Tianle, you'd better release us imdiately," Hong Yang directly ignored Zhang nglong's dirty words, "Elders from our families have arrived. If you release us now, there might still be a chance for you. I advise you not to be ignorant of the situation!"
"That's right!" With his grandfather here, Mu Xiang's confidence surged, "Do you know what kind of people our grandfathers are? I know you have a Dao Realm puppet, but a puppet is a puppet; it will never compare to a true Dao Realm expert. Your resistance is futile. Even if you exhaust all your Divine Crystals, it's a drop in the bucket. The ans of a true Dao Realm expert are beyond your imagination."
"I know," Zhang nglong said casually, "I know my puppet is useless against your elders. I don't like wasting money. They're formidable, but don't forget, you both are still in my hands. If they kill , neither of you will survive!"
Their expressions froze because they hadn't forgotten that when they were captured yesterday, Zhang nglong forced them to swallow a pill first. They didn't believe it was any sort of miraculous dicine but sothing to threaten their elders.
"I'm a very fair person," Zhang nglong said, "As long as your elders co with the money to ransom you, I promise to let you go without hesitation! But if they co to force my hand, don't bla for being unkind."
"You want to die with us?" They looked at Zhang nglong with so trepidation. Although they believed their elders had the ability to rescue them, if Zhang nglong died, there'd be no one to neutralize the poison in them.
Even though the Hong Yun Empire had many skilled Alchemists and Pharmacists capable of concocting all kinds of elixirs, including Detoxification Pills, with a high chance of finding an antidote for their poison.
But better safe than sorry — if Zhang nglong's poison was incurable, or it just happened to be in the blind spot of those Alchemists' knowledge?
Even if they dismbered Zhang nglong, they would still face inevitable death!
...
"Except for that kid nad Gu Tianle, all irrelevant people have one minute to leave this hotel imdiately!" Another wave of thunderous voices sounded from outside.
Two figures drifted above the hotel, dressed simply, with calm expressions on their faces, looking down at all the Heavenly Prides below as if gazing at ants.
In their eyes, although these people had the potential to obtain the eighteen superpower disciple slots, they were ultimately young. Even if so were favored by the superpowers, reaching their level was still a rarity. Even if so could surpass them, it was sothing years into the future.
The Dao Realm expert of the Hong Yun Empire's Royal Family, Hong He, and the old patriarch of the Mu Family, Mu Yifeng, were the ones who established the vast family foundation of the Royal Family and the Mu Family. After becoming Dao Realm experts, they gained eternal life. Having passed their power to the next generation, their only reason to continue living was to explore the end of cultivation.
Yet, despite countless years passing, they still remained at the First-grade Dao Realm, unable to make any progress.
They were initially in secluded cultivation within the Royal Family and the Mu Family. Yesterday, they inexplicably first encountered the Warcraft siege. The Warcraft, comparable to a Second-grade Dao Realm, almost brought the entire Hong Yun Empire to the brink of destruction. Even their combined forces with another Dao Realm expert couldn't fend off the white-feathered bird and were forced into retreat. Without intervention from the superpowers, the Imperial City might now already be ruins.
However, despite repelling the Ice Dragon Clear Sky Sparrow, both of them suffered so injuries. At this ti, news ca that another young man had directly snatched Hong Yang from the Royal Family and Mu Feng from the Mu Family in front of all the Heavenly Prides. Even the Royal Family's Imperial Guards didn't dare utter a word.
The one who kidnapped them was rely a teenager, who audaciously demanded they bring 26 quadrillion Divine Crystals for ransom!
With their hearts already simring with rage, this news was like a fuse that nearly caused them to explode.
Soone dared to seize a Royal Prince and the son of the Mu Family's patriarch. Even though one was not directly related, and the other rely a bastard, it was still a slap to both families!
"I know; they must be here to demand the hostages."
"I also heard that yesterday, soone nad Gu Tianle captured the Royal Family's Prince Hong Yang and the Mu Family's illegitimate young master."
"Not only that, he even insulted a core disciple of a superpower. I've never seen soone so arrogant in my life."
"Isn't he just courting death? Now with two Dao Realm experts at his doorstep, the scale of the situation is surely massive."
"Why is this guy staying in the sa hotel as us? Isn't this inviting trouble?"
"Stop talking, hurry and leave!"
Within less than half a minute, the entire hotel was vacated. Even the hotel owner didn't dare utter a single word of complaint. At this point, provoking these two powerhouses was a death wish!
Hong He's aura swept through, imdiately pinpointing the location of Zhang nglong and the others in the hotel.
"Brat, bring them out to ! If Hong Yang and Mu Xiang lose a single hair, you'll be pulverized!"
"Ah!" A scream echoed from within the building.
Then, Zhang nglong, grabbing a person with each hand, appeared on the hotel rooftop, where Hong Yang and Mu Xiang had astonishingly beco shiny bald heads.
"Not only did I touch their hair, but I turned them into baldies," Zhang nglong taunted, "What can you do about it?"
