Chapter 1005: Chapter 1002: You Were Fooled by That Guy
Xu Wendong smiled and said, "I am President Jiang’s bodyguard. Everything I do is to better serve my employer, so no need for any reward."
"Thank you!" Jiang Xueyao felt a warm surge in her heart. Although Xu Wendong did not ask for any reward, she felt indebted to him in her heart.
As for how to repay him, she had not yet figured it out.
She sat cross-legged and once again entered a state of cultivation, absorbing the water element between heaven and earth into her body, refining it into True Qi and storing it in her Dantian.
In the blink of an eye, it was evening.
The sunset gradually descended, dyeing the sky a golden hue.
The waves gently lapped against the beach, making a melodious sound. The afterglow of the sunset sprinkled over the sea, shimmering like gold.
The sea and sky were one, as if the glow of the sky and the sea had merged into one.
On the beach, the fine sand was golden under the sunset, giving a warm tone that imparted a feeling of tranquility.
In the distance, a flock of seabirds soared in the glow of the sunset, occasionally diving into the sea, catching the setting sun.
The shadows of the coconut trees swayed, and under the setting sun, the shadows of the coconut trees reflected on the sea surface, like a beautiful painting.
The sea breeze blew by, lifting strands of hair, bringing a trace of coolness, intoxicating people in this peaceful seaside.
Jiang Xueyao stopped cultivating, slowly opened her cold and beautiful eyes, and immediately smelled a fishy and foul odor from her body.
Instantly showing a look of disdain, she looked at Xu Wendong in confusion: "What’s with this dark brown liquid on me?"
Xu Wendong replied, "These are impurities being expelled from your body. Just rinse off, and it will be fine."
Jiang Xueyao came to a sudden realization, stood up, and walked towards the villa.
After an afternoon of cultivation.
She felt inexplicably relaxed, not just physically, even her once anxious and restless heart was calm at this moment.
While Jiang Xueyao went to take a bath, Xu Wendong came into the kitchen, where Yang Tao and Liu Yi were making dumplings, with some prepared ingredients beside them.
It looked quite hearty.
"We’re in for a treat tonight!" Xu Wendong unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Although he had returned to the secular world for almost a month, he hadn’t eaten a dumpling meal yet.
Seeing Yang Tao and Liu Yi’s slow pace in making dumplings, he joined in on the dumpling-making too.
The three of them chatted and laughed, with a warm atmosphere.
A moment later.
Jiang Xueyao finished her bath, changed into a white fitted skirt, and elegantly came to the dining room, joining the dumpling-making squad.
Before today, she was very averse to the kitchen, and even the Feng Shui Master she consulted earlier said that the kitchen was fiery, and she should stay away.
But at this moment, even though she entered the kitchen, she didn’t feel any discomfort.
On the other side.
Zhou Sheng arrived at the manor where his master Wu Yongheng cultivated and reported today’s events to him in detail.
"What an arrogant man, daring to disregard the existence of this old man."
"I want to see if that fellow has three heads and six arms, enough to make this old man die and disappear!"
As an expert in the Golden Core Late Stage realm, Wu Yongheng’s strength was top-tier even in the Kunlun Mountains Minor World.
Now, to be disdained by a junior in the secular world, a strong anger rose in his heart.
On the side, Chen Jie added fuel to the fire, saying, "Senior Wu, you are right. That guy is extremely arrogant, not placing you in his eyes at all. He must pay a heavy price!"
"Let him know the terror of you, Senior."
Having been kicked by Xu Wendong, although he had taken healing elixirs, his abdomen still burned with pain.
So, he wanted to use Wu Yongheng’s hand to take Xu Wendong out.
"Master, I always felt that guy had some unknown methods." Zhou Sheng said worriedly, "I could feel it. I have never seen him, yet he spoke my identity and background, even knowing I was your disciple."
Wu Yongheng snorted coldly, "Fool, you got deceived by that guy."
Zhou Sheng shivered, then couldn’t help but say, "Master, do you mean that he was also present at the gathering we attended last time?"
They had attended a gathering of cultivators some time ago, with over a hundred attendees.
Golden Core Realm cultivators were really few and far between.
Wu Yongheng displayed a face full of pride: "In Magic Capital, there are just a few Golden Core Realm cultivators. For him to speak your name and say you’re my disciple, what’s so surprising about that?"
Zhou Sheng suddenly understood, a chill flashed in his eyes, "Unexpectedly, as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, I actually got deceived by that junior. If this spreads, I will definitely be laughed at!"
"Master, I will now go to Magic Capital to take that young man’s head!"
Wu Yongheng shook his head, "Since the opponent dares to disregard me, it means he has some skills. Even if you take action, you might not be able to kill this kid."
"Forget it, I’m free anyway, so I’ll accompany you to meet that guy!"
Zhou Sheng bowed, "Yes!"
Under Wu Yongheng’s feet, a gleaming longsword appeared, carrying Zhou Sheng out of the villa like a shadow, flying towards Chongming Island.
Seeing the master and disciple flying on the sword, Chen Jie grinned widely.
Because he knew.
The moment Wu Yongheng decided to make a personal move, Xu Wendong was already destined to be a dead man.
The cultivation level of the Mid-Late Golden Core Stage truly could crush everything.
------
On Chongming Island.
Yang Tao already brought the dishes to the dining table.
Xu Wendong also brought the steaming hot dumplings into the dining room.
Jiang Xueyao opened a bottle of high-end red wine.
As the four sat down one after another, Yang Tao, with great insight, picked up the decanter and poured a glass for Jiang Xueyao and Liu Yi.
But when she was about to pour wine for Xu Wendong, he refused: "I’m at work now, I can’t drink!"
Jiang Xueyao had a faint smile on her face, "It’s okay, we’re happy today, have a little exception."
In her heart, Xu Wendong’s image had changed and was no longer just a simple bodyguard.
But a friend.
"Alright then!" Xu Wendong did not insist further, not to mention two glasses of red wine, even if he drank two bottles of high-proof baijiu, it wouldn’t affect his work.
After pouring the wine, the four of them clinked glasses and drank together, eating and drinking happily.
However.
Liu Yi was quite unruly, extending her tender, delicate jade foot under the table and placing it on Xu Wendong’s leg, with a playful expression on her face.
Xu Wendong felt a surge of wicked fire, not expecting this woman to be so bold, planning to make her cry after the meal.
But just at this moment.
He clearly felt the aura of a Golden Core realm expert rapidly approaching from the west.
In addition to the aura of this Golden Core realm expert, there was another familiar Foundation Establishment cultivator’s aura.
He knew, Zhou Sheng had come with his master to cause trouble.
But.
How could a mere Golden Core realm cultivator pose a threat to him?
