Chapter 628: Chapter 628: The Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon!
Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth twitched uncontrollably, he was shocked by Huo Shuyu’s bizarre behavior!
She’s sick, definitely sick!
Without a second thought, Jiang Xiaobai took a step back, pointing at Huo Shuyu, shouting.
“I knew at first sight that you weren’t human!”
“Monster, show your true colors!”
“Otherwise, I will unleash my dragon power!”
Jiang Xiaobai yelled, behaving utterly like a typical teenager.
Even Huo Shuyu was taken aback by his antics.
So because she’s schizophrenic, you’re also behaving like a teenager?
The pair of you are made for each other!
Shouldn’t this be a joyous match made in heaven?
“Ahem, got a bit carried away there.”
Jiang Xiaobai quickly composed himself, cleared his throat and asked Huo Shuyu, “Enough of the nonsense, are you sure that as long as I go back to the Huo Family with you, everything will be taken care of?”
“Yes, just come back to the Huo Family with me, that’s all it takes!”
Huo Shuyu replied, her tears starting to drip down again.
Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t stand to see her like this anymore.
With a swish of his sleeve, he turned around and walked away.
“I got it, let me take a few days to recover my mood.”
“When I’m in a better mood, I’ll go back to the Huo Family with you.”
With that, Jiang Xiaobai simply walked out without looking back, planning to take a look at the city outside.
After all, he was a big foodie. Arriving at a new place without sampling their cuisine would be a big regret in his life!
Just as he was making his way out, he heard Huo Shuyu giggling foolishly from behind.
“Well, we can’t go back right now, we might have to wait for about two months?”
Thud!
Upon hearing these words, Jiang Xiaobai almost tripped and fell flat on his face.
This woman!
Says nothing useful!
Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth in frustration, deciding to ignore her for now.
He felt extremely affected by what just happened.
No kidding, anyone would be bothered after dealing with such a mental case!
So Jiang Xiaobai ran off and disappeared from sight, leaving behind Huo Shuyu standing alone, looking like an abandoned lover.
Time passed and Huo Shuyu’s expressions changed dramatically before settling into a calm demeanor.
“You lot, always causing trouble.”
“Do you have to act up at a time like this?”
“Are you acting weird because the seal is loosening?”
“There’s still two months, just hold on for a bit!”
Huo Shuyu reproached into thin air.
If anyone were around, they would surely be shocked. Was she talking to a ghost?
Of course, Jiang Xiaobai was oblivious to what had just happened. By the time Huo Shuyu began talking to herself, he had already left Azure Dragon Academy.
As for Huo Shuyu’s identity, Jiang Xiaobai had a hunch.
This woman, she wasn’t from this world of Starry Hell.
But he wasn’t so sure why his swordsmanship could help the Huo Family.
Well, he got nothing else to do. It would be nice to travel around and see the sights.
After all, he wouldn’t be staying in this world of Starry Hell for long and he had no plans to stay for long.
Stepping outside the academy, the streets were bustling with carriages and pedestrians.
Jiang Xiaobai was strolling and shopping while scanning his surroundings for delicious food with sharp eyes.
Very soon, he spotted an array of delectable food. Just as he was about to go over there and have a great meal.
Suddenly, a figure shot out from the crowd and bumped fiercely into him.
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t have time to react.
He was about to check the situation only to realize the person who bumped into him had already fled.
He disappeared into the crowd, leaving only a retreating figure.
Before he could say anything, a few more people came rushing from behind, chasing after the guy.
Jiang Xiaobai shrugged, not wanting to get involved.
However, just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly felt something new inside his belt!
He removed it to find out that it was a storage ring.
After a glance, Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback.
Damn, it was full of strange gems!
And not just one, but three of them!
Playing with the storage ring in his hand and looking towards the direction the man had fled, a smirk spread across Jiang Xiaobai’s face.
“Interesting, trying to frame me, are we?”
“Tsk tsk tsk, since you started it, don’t blame me for playing along.”
Then, as if nothing had happened, Jiang Xiaobai continued roaming the streets and enjoying the food.
But of course, he wasn’t just aimlessly wandering around. He planned to find a place where he could gather more information.
However, he knew next to nothing about this world and this city.
He didn’t have the slightest clue.
So he decided to go to a trading house first to ask for information. However, just as he was about to reach the trading house, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Benefactor?”
“It’s really you, Benefactor!”
“Hahaha, I, Mr. Sun, knew it. That old fortune-teller didn’t lie to me. I never thought we could meet again. You must be my benefactor!”
The person was none other than Sun Gangniang, who insisted on treating Jiang Xiaobai as a benefactor.
Well, that’s a very domineering name!
Upon a close examination, it’s domineering to the extreme!
You must not be having a good time, huh, Mrs. Gang?
“Ahem, what a coincidence.”
Jiang Xiaobai responded with a fake smile, feeling no fondness for him. He intended to avoid him and head straight for the trading house.
But to his surprise, Sun Gangniang shamelessly knelt down, hugging Jiang Xiaobai’s thigh.
“Benefactor, are you trying to abandon me?”
“Don’t, I can help! That fortune-teller said so. When my benefactor appears, I’m bound to be of great help!”
Sun Gangniang was holding onto Jiang Xiaobai’s thigh, begging earnestly.
Jiang Xiaobai was dumbstruck. What kind of fortune-teller is so powerful to predict this?
But he somehow felt a hint of interest rising in his heart.
“Fine, I’m asking you, where can I gather information?”
As soon as he finished, Sun Gangniang’s eyes lit up. He jumped up and was enthusiastic about to say something before he quickly collected himself.
“Benefactor, I can tell you, but you have to take me with you!”
“It’s not easy to meet a benefactor, I can’t miss this chance!”
Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth twitched endlessly and even his teeth hurt a bit.
The way he put it, it was as if they were in a gay relationship?
“Alright, alright, with you, hurry up and spill it. You’re hemming and hawing like a woman.”
Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes.
Upon hearing that, Sun Gangniang was ecstatic.
The benefactor just agreed to himself?
Then he told Jiang Xiaobai about a place — Tianya Pavilion.
This was the most famous organization in the entire city, specializing in gathering and selling information.
It could be said that they knew everything about the Yan Dynasty that the dynasty itself didn’t know about!
Jiang Xiaobai took a deep breath upon hearing this.
Such a great place, he must go and check it out!
Soon, the two of them arrived in front of a grand structure in the center of the city, the Tianya Pavilion.
But just as Jiang Xiaobai was about to go in, his eyebrows furrowed suddenly as he turned towards a corner.
There he saw a figure immediately rushing into the crowd.
This figure, it seemed familiar…
