Chapter 1170: eting an Old Classmate
Yang Xinxin was right. Zhang Yi was indeed very concerned about Guan Longyue.
After arriving in Shengjing, he had thought he would be able to et that legendary ceiling of combat power for the Shengjing Region, but she had never appeared.
However, Zhang Yi still said to Yang Xinxin, "For , your safety is the most important thing. If that woman might pose a threat to you, I don't think it's necessary to go."
Yang Xinxin's gaze as she looked at Zhang Yi slowly lted, a sweet smile playing at the corner of her mouth.
"Brother, I'm so happy that you're thinking about my safety!"
"Still, I'd like to go. Even if it's just to gather so information."
Seeing Yang Xinxin's persistent insistence, Zhang Yi said, "Alright then. But when you go there, I'll accompany you."
"Mm, okay."
Yang Xinxin nodded.
Zhang Yi imdiately notified Deng Shentong that they could let Yang Xinxin go et Guan Longyue.
Deng Shentong also promptly contacted the other side. They arranged a ti for nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Soone would co to pick up Yang Xinxin and Zhang Yi and take them to the Earth God Temple where Guan Longyue resided.
On the other side, after being warned by Zhang Yi, Fatty Xu was initially sowhat uneasy.
He felt conflicted and uncertain, not knowing how he should handle his relationship with Li Yangyang.
Although they hadn't known each other long, they shared common interests.
For example, gas, figurines, dakimakura, and a whole series of ani-related rchandise.
There was a feeling called 'feeling like old friends at first sight.' He had that distinct feeling when he t Li Yangyang.
Fatty Xu knew deep down that it wasn't fake.
Because being an otaku wasn't that easy. Without years of experience in the 'erciyuan' world, you wouldn't understand the various bits of knowledge within the industry so well.
So, Li Yangyang's shared interests with him had to be genuine.
But how should he handle the relationship between the two of them?
All his lancholy crumbled to dust the instant he encountered Li Yangyang outside his door.
Li Yangyang stood with her hands behind her back, looking at him with a beaming smile.
"Classmate Chunlei, are you finished with your work?"
As she spoke, she produced a ga console from behind her, waving it in her palm.
"You absolutely have to help clear this level today!"
The gloom on Fatty Xu's face vanished instantly, his eyes lighting up. "Sure! With here, it'll be a piece of cake!"
The two went to a room next door. Li Yangyang sat down beside Fatty Xu without any reservation. "Co on, co on, I've been stuck on this level for ages, just can't get past it. Today, you have to show exactly how to get through it."
As she sat beside Fatty Xu, a sweet fragrance wafted into his nostrils.
Li Yangyang's actions showed no distance from Fatty Xu. Every accidental touch of her arm against his made Fatty Xu's heart flutter and his face flush.
He secretly glanced at Li Yangyang, who was intently focused on playing the ga beside him. While feeling fortunate to have t such a great girl, he also began to have so self-doubt.
"Would a girl this great really like a fat otaku like ?"
"I'm fat, not handso, and I don't have the powerful strength or excellent eloquence that Boss Zhang Yi has."
"Does she like , or is she just treating as a regular gaming buddy?"
Fatty Xu couldn't help but think of what Zhang Yi had said to him. He also began to wonder if there was so purpose behind such a great girl like Li Yangyang actively getting close to him.
But all of that vanished without a trace after Li Yangyang gently nudged him with her elbow and pouted, playfully complaining, "Hey, what are you spacing out for? Hurry up and log in!"
"Yangyang definitely likes , hehe!"
Fatty Xu thought to himself, feeling pleased.
...
The next morning, the people sent by Shengjing arrived at the entrance of Zhang Yi's residence.
A black luxury RV was parked there, respectfully inviting Zhang Yi and Yang Xinxin to board.
Zhang Yi and Yang Xinxin exchanged a glance. Smiling, he led her onto the vehicle.
The roads in Shengjing were very wide, easily accommodating ten vehicles side-by-side without any pressure.
At this ti, the roads were clean and deserted. Apart from the Dragon's Roar Guards of Shengjing and a small number of special operations personnel, practically no one was moving about outside.
The vehicle headed north, arriving at the central area of Ming Imperial City.
Passing through several layers of palace gates, they finally reached Guan Longyue's residence, the Earth God Temple.
This was the most heavily guarded place in all of Shengjing.
After approaching this area, just the squad leader-level superhumans Zhang Yi detected numbered in the double digits.
Furthermore, there were at least a hundred superhuman guards patrolling the vicinity with power levels above 5000 points.
Today, the place was very grand. On both sides of the broad road, standing at intervals of several ters, were superhumans with straight postures and imposing, extraordinary auras.
Passing through the palace gate, one could see from afar that majestic great hall standing right in the center of the palace walls.
It was a retro-modern architectural structure, standing over twenty ters tall and covering an area of over a thousand square ters. The bright yellow glazed tiles on the roof weren't made of ordinary glazed material, yet they exuded the sa majestic and imposing air as an ancient imperial palace.
All around the Earth God Temple were vast open spaces. Just the courtyards covered dozens of acres.
In such an environnt, no one would be given any opportunity to approach stealthily.
Because around the palace, there were powerful firepower networks everywhere, and no shortage of top-tier superhumans standing guard!
Seeing this, Zhang Yi had so thoughts.
After the vehicle arrived here, its speed slowed.
At the end of the road, they saw the Grand General of the Dragon's Roar Guards, Shang Daowen, dressed in white attire with blue patterns, waiting for them with a smile.
Zhang Yi squeezed Yang Xinxin's hand. "If anything happens, just follow our plan."
He said to her.
Yang Xinxin nodded, smiling. "Don't worry, brother. There won't be any problems."
The vehicle stopped. Guards imdiately ca over to open the doors, respectfully inviting the two to disembark.
Zhang Yi held Yang Xinxin's hand and led her before Shang Daowen.
Behind Shang Daowen stood that massive, magnificent Earth God Temple.
Up close, the feeling it gave was even more awe-inspiring. It was like a colossal heavenly palace standing in the very center of Shengjing, forcing one to crane their neck to see its full form.
"Mr. Chaos, Miss Yang. Welco to both of you! Houtu has been waiting for you for so ti."
His gaze fell on Yang Xinxin, a gentlemanly smile on his face.
Then he glanced at Zhang Yi. "As for Mr. Chaos, please wait outside the hall for a mont."
Zhang Yi looked at Yang Xinxin. Yang Xinxin gave him a reassuring look.
Zhang Yi nodded. "Alright."
Guided by Shang Daowen's gesture, Yang Xinxin walked forward. She looked up ahead. The steps leading to the Earth God Temple were so high it seed like climbing to heaven.
She gently lifted the hem of her skirt with her fingers, then began walking up step by step with light, graceful steps.
