Chapter 78
Elder Zhang pushed open the car door and stumbled out of the car.
The driver hurriedly came forward to support him.
"What's going on?" A young woman walked out from the house, she exuded a chilly aura, her gaze devoid of warmth fell on Elder Zhang.
"Mas..." Elder Zhang had barely uttered a syllable when he felt the spiritual power within his body become chaotic, all rushing towards his dantian, his eyes widening in horror, "Help..."
The woman sensed something was amiss and quickly dodged away.
The next moment, there was a "bang!" sound of self-detonation, Elder Zhang exploded like a balloon into a cloud of blood, taking with him the driver who was supporting him and the car behind them.
The woman looked at the carnage in the distance, her eyes piercing with bone-chilling coldness, "No matter who you are, for killing my disciple, I will never let you off lightly. Find out who Zhang Yi came into contact with today."
Ling Yue returned to the hotel in high spirits. Her gains were huge today, just the Raw Stone King alone that she had opened earned her over a hundred billion, she would never have to worry about money in this world again. There were also those two mines she obtained from Dantuo, she planned to find someone trustworthy to help her manage the mining of the ores.
As for the person behind Elder Zhang, she was not afraid, perhaps her current strength was inferior to the other party's, but it was not so easy for the other party to find her either.
The Divine Consciousness mark she had left on Elder Zhang had disappeared without a trace along with his death. Moreover, through the Divine Consciousness mark, she had also learned the identity of the person behind Elder Zhang, before her strength was inferior to the other party's, she would try her best to avoid them.
"We'll be going back tomorrow, I'm really going to miss this place," Tang Xin said wistfully, leaning on her palm as she gazed out at the scenery.
"There will be opportunities in the future." Ling Yue picked up the tea on the table and walked over to Tang Xin, looking out at the scenery together with her.
At this moment, the market downstairs was bustling with people, especially the few shops playing with Raw Stones which had a constant stream of people coming and going.
"Why don't we go open a few more Raw Stones?" Tang Xin saw that some of the people who had come to Myanmar with them had entered one of the Raw Stone gambling shops, and she felt a little itch too.
"I won't go, do you want me to ask my cousin Lan Ji if he wants to go?" Ling Yue had already lost interest in gambling Raw Stones. Previously she had only played with Raw Stones for money.
Tang Xin's face turned red, "If you're not going, then I won't go either." She didn't feel comfortable being alone with Ling Yue's cousin Lan Ji.
Ling Yue raised an eyebrow, "I thought you two were getting along quite well?" She had seen them chatting all the way back.
"That's because you were there," Tang Xin said with a reddened face, twisting her fingers. Lan Ji was indeed her type.
There was a knock on the door at this moment.
Ling Yue went to open the door, seeing her cousin Lan Ji outside, "Cousin!"
Hearing this, Tang Xin's face turned even redder, she stole a glance at Lan Ji, pretending to look out the window at the scenery.
"Do you guys want to go out for dinner? I heard from the hotel staff that there's a pretty good restaurant nearby."
"Xin Xin, do you want to go?" Ling Yue asked Tang Xin.
Tang Xin took a deep breath and turned to look at Ling Yue, "I'll go if you go."
"Okay, then let's go out for dinner." Ling Yue decided.
The three of them left the hotel and walked towards the location the staff had mentioned, after about ten minutes they saw a restaurant.
They entered the restaurant, finding it was almost full with hardly any empty seats, only a small table in the corner was vacant, so the three of them walked over there.
The three had just sat down when a waitress came over with menus, "What would the three of you like to order?"
Lan Ji took the menus and passed them to Ling Yue and Tang Xin, "You two order."
Ling Yue and Tang Xin each ordered a few dishes.
"You can try our house special fruit juice, it tastes really good," the waitress suggested, pointing to the drink on the table next to them.
Ling Yue glanced at the reddish-purple liquid the waitress was pointing at, it looked like grape juice. "No need, just give us three Cokes."
"Okay." The waitress took the menus and left, a hint of disappointment flashing across her eyes as she turned away.
"Yue Yue, why didn't we order the fruit juice?" Tang Xin asked, turning her gaze back. She had seen the two people at the next table seemed to really enjoy drinking that fruit juice, and she wanted to try what it tasted like too.
Ling Yue leaned close to Tang Xin's ear, "The juice is spiked, if you drink it you'll get addicted." As a cultivator, her five senses were naturally more acute than ordinary people's, she could smell that the fruit juice had been adulterated with prohibited substances just by smelling it.
Tang Xin was stunned, "Really?" That was really terrifying.
Ling Yue nodded slightly.
"What if the food is also spiked?" Tang Xin asked worriedly. She didn't really feel like eating anymore.
"We'll see in a bit, my cousin is a doctor, he'll be able to smell it, right Cousin?" Ling Yue stopped the topic when the waitress brought their dishes. After all, there was no place that was absolutely safe in the Golden Triangle, it could be said to be a paradise for crime, human trafficking, drug dealing, and telecommunications fraud were rampant here.
Tang Xin looked at the vividly colored dishes, her questioning gaze turning to Lan Ji.
Lan Ji nodded, indicating it was safe to eat.
Only then did Tang Xin dare to pick up her chopsticks and dish up some food. Originally she had been reluctant to leave this place, but now she only wanted to leave as soon as possible, Xia Country was still the safest.
Ling Yue lowered her mask and picked up her chopsticks, putting a piece of meat in her mouth, finding the dishes still tasted pretty good.
"Yue Yue, school is starting again next week, are you going?" Tang Xin thought of this question, swallowing the food in her mouth and looking at Ling Yue. Previously, Ling Yue had told her that after marrying Zhou Mucheng, she had taken a leave of absence from school to stay at home and take care of her husband.
"Of course." Ling Yue nodded. She understood the importance of education in this world, and she also wanted to experience what it was like to go to school.
"That's great," Tang Xin said happily. She had persuaded Ling Yue several times before, telling her not to focus all her attention on Zhou Mucheng, feeling that Zhou Mucheng was not a good match for Ling Yue. Sure enough, as soon as Ling Yue was disfigured, that scumbag Zhou Mucheng had called off the marriage.
Her gaze fell on Ling Yue's exquisitely beautiful face. The current Ling Yue was even more beautiful than before, and her temperament had also changed, no longer the meek, subservient girl who let everyone bully her. She really liked the current Ling Yue, beautiful, graceful, confident, and smart. She was certain that scumbag Zhou Mucheng would one day regret it.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" Seeing Tang Xin grinning foolishly while staring at her, Ling Yue raised her eyes to look at her.
"I think that scumbag Zhou Mucheng will regret calling off your marriage one day. Yue Yue, you absolutely must not give him another chance."
"I won't." Ling Yue's tone was firm. Whether Zhou Mucheng regretted it or not had nothing to do with her, she was not the original owner of this body.
