1282 Sheng Xiao: Grandfather?
When Sheng Xiao arrived in front of him and the burly man stared at Sheng Xiao’s handsome face at a close distance, he was stunned by his good looks.
“Student?” Sheng Xiao shouted again.
The burly man’s companion b.u.mped his shoulder before the man finally came back to his senses.
Realizing that he was actually mesmerized by a man’s handsome face, the burly man felt a little awkward and rubbed his face as he introduced himself. “h.e.l.lo, I’m an uppercla.s.smen from the previous batch. My name is Du Kai.”
!!Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiao changed his address. “h.e.l.lo, Mr. Du.”
When he saw how polite Sheng Xiao was, Du Kai’s impression of him improved and he asked Sheng Xiao, “You want to buy a large number of Spirit Gra.s.s and Spirit Fruits, right?”
Sheng Xiao nodded. “Yes, do you have it?”
“Of course I don’t, but…” Du Kai pointed at Teaching Area No. 2 and said to Sheng Xiao,” If you want Spirit Gra.s.s and Spirit Fruits, it’s best if you ask the Alchemist Department. Alchemists don’t lack natural treasures. ”
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiao’s eyes lit up. “Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Du. I’ll go to the announcement hall of Teaching Area No. 2 to issue the announcement later.”
“Don’t be so polite. Just treat it as us becoming friends.”
“Thank you!”
Sheng Xiao went to Teaching Area No. 2 again. After making the same announcement, he returned to the villa. When he returned to the room, he saw Yu Huang resting. The study door was open and there was an empty box on the table. Sheng Xiao recognized it as the box that contained the Netherworld Fruit.
After he came to the bed and sat down, he stared at Yu Huang’s face for a moment. Then, the student badge on his shoulder suddenly flickered.
This was the first time Sheng Xiao’s badge lit up.
He stared at the flashing badge for a moment. Then, he reached out and tapped the badge. A voice message sounded. “h.e.l.lo, Sheng Xiao. I’m Lie Wenshan, an alumni of the Pharmaceutical Department. Do you need level 8 Snake Pattern Gra.s.s and level 8 Ice Divine Fruit? If you need them, I’m willing to give them to you. However, I need you to go to the training area and get a strand of a level 9 Succubus Witch’s hair for me. I need its hair as a medicine primer. I look forward to your reply.”
Lie Wenshan?
Wasn’t that the blond woman who had reminded Donor to pay more attention to Dongshen Hanyu in the Ice Blazing City and who had a crush on Prime Master Chengwen?
So it was an old friend.
Level 8 Snake Pattern Gra.s.s was a great tonic for flying demon beasts, while the Ice Divine Fruit was a great tonic for the Sky Dragon Race.
These two things were the Spirit Gra.s.s that Sheng Xiao wanted the most.
However, a Level 9 Succubus Witch was a cunning demon beast that was difficult to deal with. Ordinary Grand Masters were not its match at all.
After Sheng Xiao looked at Yu Huang, who was sleeping soundly, he decided to agree to the deal with Lie Wenshan. He took off the badge and studied it carefully for a long time. Then, he realized that this badge wasn’t only a symbol of a student’s ident.i.ty, but also an in-school communication device.
After Sheng Xiao gave Lie Wenshan an affirmative reply, he laid down beside Yu Huang and slept for two hours. Then, under the moonlight, he headed to the training area all alone.
When Yu Huang woke up in the morning, she found that there were traces of someone sleeping on the other pillow. However, Sheng Xiao wasn’t in the room. There was a note on the dressing table. It said, “I’m going to the training area to do a mission to earn Spirit Gra.s.s for our children. The badge is also a communication device. Remember to study it.”
The badge had such a function?
After Yu Huang studied the school badge for a while and found the alumni call function, she searched for Sheng Xiao and sent him a message with two letters on it:[LG]
Sheng Xiao was lying in ambush in the forest and observing the Succubus Witch’s actions patiently.
When the badge lit up, Sheng Xiao glanced at it and realized that the content of the message was two simple letters. However, the sender’s profile picture was a 1 x 1-inch photo taken by Yu Huang when she entered the school. Sheng Xiao became distracted when he saw that it was a message from Yu Huang and thought about what LG meant.
Sheng Xiao couldn’t think of an answer after thinking for a while, so he asked, “What is that thing you sent?”
When Yu Huang received the reply, she replied mischievously: “If you guess correctly, I’ll give you a pa.s.sionate kiss. If your guess is wrong, I’ll beat you up.”
Sheng Xiao racked his brains but couldn’t think of an answer.
After all, there were no English letters in their world, let alone English.
Sheng Xiao: “I admit defeat.”
Only then did Yu Huang tell him the correct answer: “Hubby.”
Sheng Xiao’s heart softened when he saw this answer. As he looked at the Succubus Witch, who was crawling on the ground in a twisted posture, he even felt that it looked beautiful and cute at the moment.
Sheng Xiao told Yu Huang, “I won’t talk to you anymore. I’m doing a mission.”
After turning off the communication function, Sheng Xiao stared at the Succubus Witch in the depths of the forest. It looked like a gorilla, but had long black hair on its back and could only rely on crawling to move. He thought of the legends about Succubus Witches. Legend had it that Succubus Witches were greedy demon beasts that were so vicious that they devoured cubs.
The more demon beast cubs they devoured, the longer their hair would be.
A newly born Succubus Witch was actually bald.
The Level 9 Succubus Witch in front of him had extremely long hair that reached the floor, so it had probably eaten countless cubs already.
For the sake of his children, Sheng Xiao decided to kill this hairy monster today and sell its hair on the commercial street. He might be able to earn another sum of spirit stones.
Earn money.
This was something that Sheng Xiao had never thought about before.
Now, he was going to become a father, which required a large amount of money. In the future, after the children were born, raising children would be even more costly.
The carefree Young Master of Yufu City had to start earning money.
At the thought of that, Sheng Xiao walked out of the forest brazenly and shouted at the Succubus Witch, “Long-haired monster!”
Upon hearing his voice, the Succubus Witch paused.
The next second, the Succubus Witch stood up stiffly. After it stood up completely, Sheng Xiao realized that it was three to four meters tall. The joints of it legs were distorted and fragile. Its hair, which fell to the ground from the top of her head, was five meters long.
The Succubus Witch slowly turned around and revealed its face.
It was a terrifying demon beast with rotten flesh and blood. It had no eyes, and its two fist-sized holes were hanging on its face. It looked utterly disgusting. Even Sheng Xiao, who was used to seeing all sorts of nasty things, couldn’t help but vomit when he saw its face!
No wonder Lie Wenshan was willing to offer such tempting conditions just for him to obtain two strands of the Succubus Witch’s hair.
The Succubus Witch was too disgusting.
“Hohoho.” The Succubus Witch let out a strange laugh. In the next second, it suddenly appeared in front of Sheng Xiao. The Succubus Witch’s black hair fluttered as it turned into thousands of thin ropes that attacked Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao summoned the Dragon Sword and was about to attack when he suddenly heard the Succubus Witch say in a hoa.r.s.e and eerie voice, “Hang a hundred ghosts!”
When Sheng Xiao heard these words, the sword that was raised above his head stopped.
Sheng Xiao blurted out in shock, “Grandpa?”
While Sheng Xiao was distracted, the long hair ropes that filled the sky wrapped around Sheng Xiao’s body at the same time. As they were about to separate his head from his shoulder, Sheng Xiao came back to his senses and roared. Then, he turned into Black Qing Sky Dragon and broke free from the restraints.
After all the ropes were destroyed, Sheng Xiao looked ahead and realized that the Succubus Witch had disappeared.
Sheng Xiao’s eyes quivered for a long time. Then, he muttered in confusion, “Isn’t that the Divine Hunt move that Grandpa cultivates?”
Sheng Xiao’s grandfather’s name was Sheng Pinghui, and his grandmother’s name was Jiang Mingzhu.
Jiang Mingzhu was a civilian, but Sheng Pinghui married this ordinary but extraordinary civilian. Three years after the two of them got married, they gave birth to their only son, Sheng Lingfeng. When Sheng Lingfeng was 20 years old, Jiang Mingzhu died of acute liver failure. After she pa.s.sed away, Sheng Pinghui, who was already a Grand Master at that time, went to the Great World to further his studies.
But he never returned.
When Sheng Lingfeng was 40 years old, he realized that the soul lamp Sheng Pinghui had left in the family had been extinguished. Although his heart ached, he could only accept this harsh reality. Even now, whenever Sheng Lingfeng mentioned his father, Sheng Lingfeng’s face would be filled with sorrow.
Sheng Xiao didn’t expect to find traces of his grandfather in the Cang Lang Continent.
Staring at the forest where the Succubus Witch had been, Sheng Xiao muttered to himself, “Why does this Succubus Witch know my grandfather’s cultivation technique and moves? Could it have met my grandfather, killed him, and secretly learned his cultivation technique?”
Sheng Xiao wanted to kill the Succubus Witch even more when he thought about how it might be the culprit who killed his grandfather.
