—------------------—
For the next few days, Xuan Ming stayed in the Soto Hotel, and Zhu Zhuqing returned to her usual practice. Except for eating, the two of them did not leave the room.
Qian Renxue also left Soto City after that day and returned to Tiandou City.
After all, Prince Xue Qinghe cannot be missing for too long.
There is really nothing for two taciturn people to talk about when they are together. Their daily interactions are basically zero. Apart from eating, Xuan Ming will also release his domain suppression and serve as a special training ground for Zhu Zhuqing.
The comprehensive suppression brought by his domain is still very beneficial to the explosive power training of soul masters. If they stay in this environment for a long time, the purity of soul power will also be improved to a certain extent.
Of course, the prerequisite is that one can endure the psychological pressure of being completely suppressed and half-dead.
Moreover, in order to resist suppression, the body will instinctively accelerate the consumption of soul power, physical strength, and mental strength.
Being enveloped by his domain, even if you do nothing but just stand there, is an extremely high-load training.
After all, if you don't resist hard, you will really die.
Fortunately, Zhu Zhuqing has a good ability to withstand pressure. As long as she can become stronger, she can accept any method.
"The little rabbit is coming."
In the hotel lobby, just after lunch, the voice of the Ice Dragon King sounded in Xuan Ming's mind.
"I'm going out for a while." Xuan Ming said.
"And you?"
Zhu Zhuqing was slightly stunned, "Yeah."
"Let's go." Xuan Ming stood up.
Zhu Zhuqing stood up subconsciously and followed Xuan Ming silently without asking any questions.
All she can do now is to keep up with Xuan Ming's pace as much as possible and seize every opportunity to become stronger.
…
"Mom, I have a bad feeling."
As soon as she entered Soto City, Xiao Wu felt a creepy feeling. Even though it was such a hot day, her heart felt cold!
"I have one too." Arou's face looked a little unnatural.
Ever since they got closer to Soto City, she had become nervous, and she didn't know why.
"Aunt Rou, are you okay?"
Seeing the strangeness of Arou and Xiaowu, Tang San couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Although he has lived two lives as a human, he has been without a mother since childhood. Although he has a father in this life, that father...it's better not to mention him.
Over the years in Notting City, Arou treated him very well, and he respected Xiaowu's mother almost as his own mother.
"It's okay." Arou shook her head, but she already had a guess in her mind.
This feeling might be that the dragon elder is nearby, or even that he came to find them on purpose.
But, how could it be so fast...
"Mom...Mom..." Xiao Wu suddenly grabbed Arou's hand and leaned closely against her. With a trembling voice, she looked at a unique figure that appeared not far away in the long street.
Following Xiao Wu's nervous gaze, at the end of the long street, Xuan Ming was standing there quietly, looking over here.
Ah Rou took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She gently patted Xiao Wu's hand and comforted her softly, "Xiao Wu, don't be afraid. Mom is here."
As she spoke, she took Xiao Wu's hand and walked towards Xuan Ming together, each step being extremely heavy.
She has been practicing hard over the years. Even though she knows that this effort is meaningless, it at least makes her feel a little more at ease.
But at this moment, when she saw this person again, she didn't have the slightest thought of running away, let alone resisting.
Seeing this, Tang San frowned, subconsciously took out a hidden weapon, hid it behind him, and followed Xiao Wu and A Rou.
Xuan Ming looked at the three people who were slowly walking towards him. His expression was as calm as water, and an invisible pressure emanated from his body, making the air around him seem to solidify a little.
Ah Rou brought Xiao Wu to a place a few steps away from Xuan Ming and stopped. She bowed slightly, and said with a hint of nervousness that was difficult to conceal: "What a coincidence, I actually met you here."
Xuan Ming said nothing, his eyes calmly scanning the three people, finally falling on Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu's body trembled slightly, and she hid behind Arou, with only half of her face showing. The carefree big sister in the past was now like a mouse seeing a cat, weak and helpless.
Tang San stared at Xuan Ming closely and held the hidden weapon in his hand even tighter. As long as Xuan Ming made any unusual movement, he would attack without hesitation.
Noticing a hint of murderous intent, Xuan Ming glanced sideways at Tang San.
With just one glance, Tang San felt an invisible pressure coming towards him, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe. The hand holding the hidden weapon also trembled slightly unconsciously, but he still suppressed his inner fear and gritted his teeth to look Xuan Ming in the face.
"You want to fight with me?" Xuan Ming said indifferently.
Tang San was shocked. He didn't expect that his action was so covert, but still seen by the other party.
When hidden weapons lose their concealment and unexpectedness, their effectiveness is greatly reduced.
What's more, the gap in strength between the opponent and himself is obviously outrageous!
"Xiao San, put your things away." A Rou said quickly.
Tang San's moves can indeed catch people by surprise when facing those who are not much different in strength from him, but facing Xuan Ming, such tricks are meaningless!
"It seems that it is not convenient for you. I will come back at another time."
Seeing Arou and Xiaowu so nervous, Xuan Ming didn't say much, turned around and walked away, and Zhu Zhuqing quickly followed him.
It was not until this moment that Arou and the others noticed that there was another person behind Xuan Ming.
"Who... who is he?" Tang San felt relieved, his back wet with cold sweat.
He had never felt such horrible pressure before. This person's aura was obviously not very strong, only about the same as the dean of Notting College, but it was extremely depressing!
But if the level 42 Dean of the Soul Weapon Sect of Notting College were here, facing this person, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to withstand a single move!
"A...special friend." Arou didn't know how to describe it.
"Xiao San, next time you see him, don't take out those things of yours."
"I understand." Tang San put away the hidden weapon in his hand.
With only what he had in his hands, even if he risked his life, he would not be able to pose any threat to that person. He needed to make a stronger hidden weapon...
…
As the sky gradually darkened, Xuan Ming once again moved closer to where Arou and Xiaowu were.
Another hotel not far from Soto Grand Hotel.
Sensing the special dragon aura, Arou also came out with Xiaowu.
"Let's talk somewhere else." Xuan Ming turned around and led the way.
Ah Rou and Xiao Wu followed quickly behind. Tang San, who noticed something was wrong, also came out of the hotel and followed behind.
After a while, Xuan Ming brought A Rou and Xiao Wu back to the Soto Hotel.
In the restaurant, Zhu Zhuqing was waiting early in front of the table filled with delicious food.
"Let's eat first." Xuan Ming walked over and sat down.
Arou hesitated for a moment, but still pulled Xiaowu to sit down.
"If you don't like it, order a new table." Xuan Ming said.
"Is this... the last meal before execution?" Xiao Wu asked nervously.
Xuan Ming was stunned. "What is the last meal?"
"You're not... here for that?" Xiao Wu asked nervously.
"It's still early." Xuan Ming said.
"I just came by to see you guys, don't think too much."
"Oh..." Xiaowu and Arou breathed a sigh of relief.
"Waiter, please give me some vegetarian food!" Xiao Wu raised her hand and regained her former energy.
"How have you been these years?" Xuan Ming asked casually.
"Not bad." Arou said.
"Is the money enough?" Xuan Ming asked.
"It's enough, there's still a lot left." Arou said.
"No need to be frugal, spend whenever you want." Xuan Ming took out a pink bracelet storage soul guide.
"Here's a million, spend it as you like."
"??!"
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned, and Xiao Wu looked confused.
"One million...copper coins?" Xiao Wu said.
"Gold." Xuan Ming said.
"You...robbed?" Xiao Wu asked strangely.
Xuan Ming glanced at Xiao Wu speechlessly, "I should be one of the richest people in Douluo Continent now, there is no need to rob."
In the Great Soul Fighting Arena, he had won a thousand games in a row, and the prize money he had received from winning the matches alone was tens of millions. Add to that the prize money he had received from betting on himself to win, and his current net worth was more than 20 million Gold Soul Coins.
Money. The thing he has the most right now is money.
