Chapter 385: Chapter 0385: Scared (Sixth Update)

The huge noise was inaudible to those outside.

But those inside could hear it clearly.

Because of this noise, Nangong Man Sha even felt the windows shake with it.

"What’s going on?" Tang Xin looked up anxiously at the pitch-black poison fog and asked.

Nangong Man Sha shook her head slightly; she looked up at the roiling poison fog, somehow feeling that it didn’t seem as dark and gloomy as before.

"Miss Man Sha, look there!" Tang Xin seemed to have seen something, her eyes widened in shock, "Was that a dragon just now? A white dragon?"

Nangong Man Sha also saw the white dragon; her nervous heart calmed down the moment she saw it.

He’s alright!

Chu Ge is alright, and he has even laid out an array.

She had seen this array only once, but it was branded in her heart as if seared with an iron.

The White Dragon roared incessantly, causing long cries to echo as it shuttled through the poison fog, wherever it went, the color of the poison fog would become paler.

The Ghost Poison Sect Master, no matter how he tried to control, couldn’t keep it under control anymore, this set of arrays was completely ruined.

To prevent himself from being backfired by the remaining poison fog, the Ghost Poison Sect Master immediately stopped and tried to leave.

But someone was quicker than him; a black figure seemingly descended from the sky appeared swiftly before him.

Chu Ge smiled slowly, "Ghost Poison Sect Master, Elder Gui, after all, we can be considered old friends. Aren’t you going to say goodbye before you leave?"

Goodbye my ass!

Elder Gui snorted inwardly, "Kid, it looks like you have some skills, but it’s just an array. You might save the Tang Family, but do you think you can save the whole Su City?"

Chu Ge narrowed his eyes slightly; he looked at the man before him. Although the man was wearing a silver mask, he could discern from his features that this was a middle-aged man in his thirties, and a handsome one at that.

But in his memory, the faces of Ghost Poison Sect disciples were all rotten and unseeable.

Chu Ge was curious about his appearance and even more so about why a man who seemed not that old would call himself Elder Gui.

Elder Gui seemed to see the doubts in his heart, his lips curling with scorn, then suddenly, a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out. Elder Gui fell to the ground in a hurry, clutching his chest, looking up at Chu Ge in disbelief, "Impossible!"

Chu Ge shook his head somewhat helplessly, "What’s impossible? When you set up the double array, you should have considered the backlash effect it brings. The harm you caused with the double array will be inflicted back on you in equal measure."

Elder Gui looked up at Chu Ge in disbelief, "I had calculated all of this thoroughly, and you, you’re merely at the Late Innate stage, not a Grandmaster. How could you possibly be my opponent!"

Chu Ge shook his head with a hint of sympathy, "Don’t you understand yet? You used Deceitful Techniques to artificially boost your abilities to Innate Grandmaster level, but the practice you cultivated is ultimately unorthodox and will not stand the test of the journey. You have no solid foundation, forcibly breaking through from Late Stage to Grandmaster is actually consuming your own energy and life force."

Elder Gui looked up, shocked at Chu Ge, "How did you know?"

"Just now, when we were confronting each other, I could see that the power you mustered was hollow and unsubstantial. You have the title of Innate Grandmaster, but not the ability of a Grandmaster. To put it bluntly, you are not even as good as Ghost Futu, one of the elders of your own Ghost Poison Sect."

Chu Ge had no intention of further verbal exchange with Elder Gui; he had said all that needed to be said. During their recent conversation, he distinctly felt that Elder Gui’s internal organs had already been hollowed out.

As expected, just as Chu Ge was about to stand up and leave, he suddenly heard Elder Gui let out a mournful howl. When Chu Ge turned back, he saw Elder Gui’s physical body dissolving into a pool of black liquid, and a black insect emerged from it, circled in the air a few times, and then flew away.

Chu Ge slightly narrowed his eyes, channeling his power swiftly and pushing his palm through the air, directly shattering the black flying insect from afar.

Another devotee of the Black Witch Sect using another person to nurture a Gu bug, with his body hollowed out, what capability does he think he has to match the power of an Innate Grandmaster?

The poison fog around Elder Gui’s death was gradually dissipating, and the majestic Little White Dragon was still circling overhead. Seemingly sensing that there was no longer any danger around, it stopped roaring and nestled contentedly in place.

Chu Ge approached from a distance, and the Little White Dragon seemed to recognize him, like a tame little pet, quickly flying behind him.

The people inside the villa saw the clearing weather outside with some hesitation, not daring to step out of the villa. It was Nangong Man Sha who took the lead, walking out of the villa first and strode towards Chu Ge. Her smile was blooming, "Mr. Chu, you’ve saved my life again."

Chu Ge’s lips curled slightly, "Even if you weren’t here, I would have saved them."

Nangong Man Sha was a bit speechless, "Mr. Chu, must you be so heartless?"

Chu Ge rubbed his forehead helplessly, "I’m just telling the truth."

"..." Conversation can’t continue properly!

Tang Xin followed behind Tang Haowan obediently, still holding Chu Ge’s mobile phone in her hand, hesitating in her heart whether or not to tell Chu Ge about the call.

But a voice inside her kept telling herself, she didn’t want to pass on this message to him.

Yet, she had no right not to tell.

As Tang Xin was hesitating, Tang Haowan spoke up, "Mr. Chu, I really must thank you. You’ve saved all of our lives again."

Chu Ge shook his head, "Truthfully, Elder Gui was actually coming for me. I’m the one who should apologize; it is I who have implicated everyone."

"No, no, no," Tang Haowan quickly waved his hands, "What are you talking about, Mr. Chu? If it weren’t for you, we would have probably been gone long ago."

Such polite talk was never Chu Ge’s forte. After exchanging a mere few words with Tang Haowan, his gaze fell on Tang Xin, "Was Lady Tang Xin scared?"

Tang Xin’s complexion was already very pale, coupled with feeling guilty, it was only natural to be mistaken as having been frightened when she kept her head down.

Yet Tang Xin felt inexplicably angry, and she threw the phone forcefully at Chu Ge, "Your fiancée was on the phone."

Having said that, she turned and ran quickly back into the villa.

Chu Ge wore a look of bewilderment. He turned to look at Tang Haowan, asking in confusion, "What’s going on with Lady Tang Xin?"

"I’m sorry, I’m sorry, she might have really been scared."

Tang Haowan also didn’t know why Tang Xin suddenly lashed out, showing such disrespect to Mr. Chu publicly.

Nangong Man Sha walked up with her arms crossed and a light laugh, "Does Mr. Chu really not know, or are you pretending not to know?"

"What?" Chu Ge was puzzled.

Nangong Man Sha, looking at Tang Xin’s retreating back, said, "Lady Tang Xin may seem quite arrogant and wilful, but when it comes to emotions, she is a girl who protects herself very well."
