Yang Xiao stood at the entrance of Magic City University, inquiring about the whereabouts of Gong Yu. The four young gatekeepers exchanged glances, and one of them asked:
"What’s your relationship with Gong Yu?"
"I’m his friend, from Dongli College."
Yang Xiao spun a lie, knowing that Zhou Jian was from Dongli College, yet unaware that Gong Yu had been rescued by Zhou Jian and others not long ago, a fabrication that undoubtedly exposed him.
One of them chuckled:
"Bro, are you really from Dongli College?"
Yang Xiao nodded, thinking that since no one knew his true identity, how could his pretense be seen through on a whim?
"Hey, what’s going on here? What happened?"
From afar, Wang ng approached with a patrol team.
Wang ng now served as the captain of a hundred-person squad under Xie Dong’s command. This week, it was his turn to lead the patrol on duty, and in terms of both status and Genetic Evolution Level, he was much higher than the four young gatekeepers.
Upon seeing Wang ng, the four imdiately said:
"ng bro, this person is looking for, looking for..."
Everyone knew that it was Gong Yu who had blinded Wang ng’s eyes, and Wang ng harbored a bone-deep hatred towards Gong Yu, so people generally didn’t ntion Gong Yu in front of him.
"Looking for who? Stop mumbling and spit it out."
"He’s looking for Gong Yu."
One of the youths whispered.
"Looking for Gong Yu?"
Wang ng paused for a mont and then glanced at Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao had an average height and handso appearance. Although his Evolution Level of genetic evolution was not apparent, it was estimated not to be too high, at least he didn’t exude a powerful aura.
However, the fiery red horse that Yang Xiao rode caught his eye.
Indeed, a horse that could run freely outdoors around minus 30 degrees Celsius was rarely seen.
Wang ng wanted to probe Yang Xiao’s background and asked:
"What’s your relationship with Gong Yu? What do you need him for?"
"I’m Gong Yu’s friend. I just happened to be passing by today, so I thought I’d drop in to chat with him."
"ng bro, this brother says he’s from Dongli College."
One of the youths walked up to Wang ng and murmured.
Wang ng was taken aback and, intending to verify the truth of Yang Xiao’s identity, smiled and asked:
"Ah, brother from Dongli College, who is your leader?"
"Du Tianxing ah!"
Yang Xiao had just t Du Tianxing at a banquet the night before.
However, knowing that Du Tianxing was the leader of Dongli College was not unusual, as almost everyone in Magic City knew that Du Tianxing, known as Du Tianwang, was the king of Magic City.
"Um, who do you usually hang out with?"
"Zhou Jian, Zhou Jian is my boss."
Yang Xiao blurted out.
Wang ng sneered inwardly, thinking, ’Damn, gotcha, trying to act smart in front of , you’re still not seasoned enough.’
Not long ago, Zhou Jian had just taken Gong Yu back to Dongli College. If Yang Xiao was with Zhou Jian, how could he not know about such a thing?
Without revealing anything, Wang ng smiled and said:
"I see, well, Gong Yu isn’t at the school right now; he’s gone out to handle so business. I’m a friend of Gong Yu’s, so if you’re in a hurry to find him, I can take you to him. If you’re not in a hurry, you can co back in a few days."
"You’re also Gong Yu’s friend? What’s your na?"
"I’m Wang ng, a good friend of Gong Yu’s."
"Then I’ll trouble you to guide there."
Yang Xiao didn’t have much ti to go back and forth looking for Gong Yu. If Wang ng really was Gong Yu’s friend and could lead the way to him, he would gladly accept.
Wang ng turned to the five people behind him and made a gesture with his eyes before saying:
"You guys don’t have anything pressing to do, so co with for a stroll, and let’s find my good brother Gong Yu along the way."
These five people were classmates familiar with Wang ng, and they understood him well. Seeing how Wang ng suddenly referred to Gong Yu as "brother" and enthusiastically took Yang Xiao to find Gong Yu, they understood what was going on and imdiately replied:
"Sure, let’s accompany Brother ng on a trip."
Wang ng glanced at the mount beneath Yang Xiao and asked:
"Brother, I have yet to ask for your esteed na?"
"Yang Xiao, ’Yang’ as in poplar, ’Xiao’ as in a roar that resounds through the heavens."
"Mmm, a good na, full of vigor."
"Heh heh, Brother Wang ng is too kind, sorry to trouble you."
"Heh heh, no worries, we’re all friends of Gong Yu, no need to be polite."
Imdiately, along with his five companions, he walked outside along the street near Magic City University. The so-called street was nothing more than a winding mountain path-like street covered with thick snow.
The buildings on either side had collapsed long ago, burying the street.
There were still so people moving around the vicinity of the school, but as they walked further out, there were fewer and fewer passersby, giving Yang Xiao a bad premonition.
Yang Xiao suddenly felt a pang in his heart and asked:
"I heard from Gong Yu that he has a friend nad Xie Dong, right?"
Wang ng was taken aback, then quickly replied:
"Yeah, those two are the best of friends, and Xie Dong is now my boss."
"Mmm, then I must et Brother Xie Dong if I get the chance."
"Of course, of course."
...
Yang Xiao and Wang ng chatted idly, and after a while, Wang ng led Yang Xiao into a deserted alley. The houses here were in ruins, with no pedestrians and the snow on the ground almost untouched by footprints.
Wang ng suddenly stopped and turned around to give Yang Xiao a sinister smile:
"Brother Yang, dismount."
"Have we arrived?"
"Heh heh, we’re here."
Yang Xiao deliberately looked around and asked, "Where is Gong Yu?"
"Cut it out, you’re not from Dongli College, and whether you’re Gong Yu’s friend or not, I don’t care. Leave your horse, and I’ll let you live. Guys, surround him."
With a loud shout from Wang ng, the five people behind him instantly drew their longswords and encircled Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao quickly pulled out the Longquan Spear from his Space Ring, holding it horizontally, he sneered:
"Heh heh, you want to steal my horse? I have a giant eagle in the sky too, want to try stealing that as well?"
Yang Xiao pointed upwards at the Giant Eagle overhead, its wingspan over a hundred ters, casting a shadow like a cloud, its presence awe-inspiring.
Wang ng laughed:
"So what if it’s just a Giant Eagle? Nothing to be scared about, I’ll deal with you first, then take care of that eagle."
With those words, Wang ng leaped up, his sword aid towards Yang Xiao who was still atop his horse.
The Fla Horse stood three ters tall. To kill Yang Xiao, Wang ng had to leap up to attack. However, this was not difficult for Wang ng, who was at the Enhanced Gene Interdiate Stage, and even among the other five people, two were at the Enhanced Gene Primary Level and three at the Primordial Gene Advanced Level, each could easily leap five or six ters.
Wang ng’s sword pierced towards Yang Xiao like lightning, determined to end it.
However, when Wang ng’s sword thrust towards Yang Xiao, the Fla Horse instantly leaped forward, easily dodging Wang ng’s strike.
"Wow, never expected this, your red horse is quite extraordinary. I’m definitely taking this horse for myself."
Yang Xiao brandished his long spear, saying:
"Hold on."
"What’s wrong, scared?"
"I have no grudge against you, and you want to kill just because you fancy my mount?"
Wang ng sneered:
"I didn’t want to kill you at first, but since you’re a friend of Gong Yu’s, you must die."
