Chapter 430 - Still Your Boss
“Drive over?” Jiang Xiaoyue blinked. “Boss, did you buy a carriage?”
“I wonder what kind of demon beast is pulling his carriage…” She looked up into the sky and said, “It can’t be as good as mine! My mount is a prehistoric rare beast, the best of the best; I’ll scare the dumb boss a little with it!”
She smiled smugly. After all, she was no longer the girl who had no money but had a big appetite.
Meanwhile, Mr. Fang had gotten in the car. “You guys watch the shop for me. I’ll go pick up someone and be back soon.”
“Well… Guild President.” Li Lanruo looked at the doors of the spiritual artifact that were opened like a pair of metal wings, saying, “No flying spiritual artifacts can fly inside Yuanyang City. Can your small flying boat… can it work?”
Different from Half City and Jiuhua City, Yuanyang City’s array deactivated all the flight spiritual spells and thus didn’t need guards to patrol the city. Even the people with powerful backgrounds and privileges couldn’t fly in the city.
“Look! This hillbilly from somewhere wants to activate a spiritual boat inside Yuanyang City?” Many passing cultivators said in disdain while looking at Fang Qi and riding on their demonic horses.
In the next moment, with the sound of tires grinding on the ground, a blue shadow shot out, leaving a puff of dust behind it.
“!!??”
“What was that?”
“How come there is such a spiritual artifact?!”
“Today, Gongzi Xun invited all the geniuses to a banquet in Essence Celestial Pavilion and to ride around the city together afterwards…” A young man riding a black tiger laughed and said, “I’m surprised that I’m on Gongzi Xun’s list; he is inviting me to this gathering.”
“Congratulations!” His guards immediately offered their congratulations.
“I spent a fortune on this nine-patterned demonic tiger.” He pointed at his mount smugly and asked, “Do you think Gongzi Xun will like…”
Before he could finish, a weird-shaped sapphire-blue spiritual artifact flashed past them.
“What was that?!” They looked baffled.
Even the demonic tiger blinked in shock, thinking that its eyes played tricks on it.
“I think it’s a spiritual boat…?”
“How can a spiritual boat run on the ground?” That young master waved his hand. “Let’s go and have a look!”
…
“Sir! Sir! You have a pair of sharp eyes. This wind-patterned horse is absolutely a treasure in my shop! It runs so steadily that you’ll feel nothing riding on it.”
A young man led a big handsome horse out of a shop.
He patted the horse on the back and said, “Not bad. Not…”
He looked up and saw a blue tornado flashing past him.
It was so fast and steady that it looked like it floated along the road.
The young man pointed at the fast disappearing spiritual artifact and asked, “Can it be as steady as that thing?”
The shop owner’s face turned dark and didn’t reply.
The young man immediately mounted the horse. “Go! Follow it!”
He was curious. What was that thing?!
…
– In front of the beast stables of the Taiwang Inn –
“Gongzi Xun! Please!”
“Brother Nangong! Brother Xu! Gentlemen! Please!” A dignified-looking young man wearing a green robe cupped his hands to the people around him.
The guy that he called Brother Nangong was a big figure, and he had a wide face, a wide forehead, and a mild expression.
Suddenly, someone pointed at the entrance. “Isn’t she…”
A cute loli wearing a plain white dress walked out the gate while dragging a rare and majestic white deer with her.
“Well! It has been a long time since I came out with Little Bell.” The loli rubbed the big white deer’s fluffy head, looking quite pleased.
The white deer had a pair of silver bells hanging on its neck, and they tinkled while it walked.
“Isn’t she the little princess of the Jiang Family?”
“How come she’s here?”
“She declined Gongzi Xun’s invitation. I wonder where she’s going?”
With a polite smile, Xun Yuan walked over and asked, “Sister Jiang, where are you going? Should I give you a lift?”
“No! I don’t need it!” Jiang Xiaoyue shook her head and patted the big white deer’s head. “Little Bell, let’s go!”
At this moment, piercing roars that sounded like they came from tigers and dragons appeared from the depth of the beast stables. Instantly, dark clouds gathered in the sky as if an ultimate demon was about to come out!
Then, they heard a series of ear-deafening roars.
Hearing this roar, the other demon beasts inside the stables all knelt as if they were at the bottom of the food chain and had heard the roar of an existence at the top. The fear that came from the bottom of their hearts turned the whole stables into an uproar!
“Ugh?! Little Bell? What’s wrong?!” Jiang Xiaoyue’s big white deer also had panic in its eyes and couldn’t move even though she pulled.
Nangong Zhuo’s face turned dark. “That damn beast of mine is making trouble again. Wait for me for a few seconds.”
After a black flash, he vanished. Then, he came out from the beast stables while riding on a black horse with one horn. Covered in pitch-black scales, it looked as if it had been transformed from some other demon beast.
When the black horse walked out, Jiang Xiaoyue’s white deer’s legs turned to jelly and couldn’t move at all.
“Hey! Little Bell, what’s wrong?!” Jiang Xiaoyue pulled, but it didn’t budge. Angry, she rested her hands on her waist and stomped her feet.
Someone chuckled on the side and said, “I think this little deer is frightened.”
At this moment, she received a message on her communication jade. [Xiaoyue, where are you?]
[I’m in front of the beast stables of the Taiwang Inn.]
She was furious!
After sending the message in anger, she glared at her big white deer. “Why are you so cowardly?!”
“Brother Nangong!” With a light sigh, Xun Yuan shook his head and said, “Your mount is perfect in every aspect other than its bad temper. Princess Jiang, if you are in a hurry, you can ride my mount.”
“Who wants to take your mount?!” Jiang Xiaoyue was furious that such a thing would happen when she took her Little Bell for an outing.
At this moment, they heard a strange sound coming from the distance.
Then, with a blue flash, a weird-shaped ‘spiritual artifact’ raced over and steadily stopped before Xiaoyue.
The car window slid down, and Mr. Fang poked out his head. “Xiaoyue, get in the car.”
“Ahh?!” Dumbfounded, Jiang Xiao pointed at Mr. Fang’s car. “Isn’t… it…?!”
“Its the Pagassi Osiris supercar. Very awesome. Do you want to have a ride in it?” Mr. Fang arched his eyebrows.
“Yes! Yes! Yes!” Jiang Xiaoyue yelled cheerfully and then glanced at Little Bell by her side. “But… my Little Bell can’t move now!”
Mr. Fang got out of the car and pressed a button on the car key. The roof of the car retracted, and Mr. Fang threw the big white deer onto the backseat.
“Let’s go! Get in!” He put on his wind-blocking sunglasses and drove away with the excited Jiang Xiaoyue and the baffled white deer.
The others were left behind in the dust. “!!??”
