Chapter 2005: Chapter 2005: My Name Is Ming Guang (3)
Lun Yi sighed quietly, turned around and placed the tray on the table, though a contemptuous curve appeared at the corner of her mouth. But when she turned back again, her expression had returned to normal.
Gu Qingheng indeed didn’t leave the General Residence but went to the study room. He wanted to fetch a book to read while accompanying his wife.
However, as soon as he arrived at the outer courtyard, he sensed... a different atmosphere.
Nian Qianqian was standing there watching Xiaozi engage in a battle with a scruffy old man.
Xiaozi’s speed was fast, but the old man’s speed was not slow either. The two... no, it was a man and a fox fiercely battling.
Although guards surrounded them on all sides, not one dared to step forward.
"Senior?" Gu Qingheng frowned, "What’s going on here?"
Nian Qianqian glanced at Gu Qingheng: "How did your wife get involved with such a big demon?"
"Huh?" Gu Qingheng didn’t understand.
"You might not know as you’re not in the martial world. Back in the day... it’s been about twenty years now, right? Your mother probably hadn’t married yet then." Nian Qianqian’s gaze fell once more on the scruffy old man fighting with Xiaozi, "One night, a Wansheng Sect appeared, led by King Hades whose martial arts were unfathomably deep, but it was dark magic. He needed to drink human blood every month..."
Gu Qingheng frowned, isn’t this a monster?
"With the appearance of Wansheng Sect, it threw the entire martial world into chaos, nearly slaughtering half of Wulin in a single night..."
Gu Qingheng sharply inhaled.
"Later, it was the combined effort of Tianxuan and Dehuan elders who subdued him. They are also your grandmasters." Nian Qianqian sighed softly, "Since then, Wulin calmed down, and King Hades vanished... but I never thought..."
"He’s King Hades?"
"I wouldn’t mistake it, just never thought he’d be hiding in Beijing, looking like this..."
"How did he come here?"
"He followed Xinxin here." Nian Qianqian turned her head to look at Gu Qingheng, "I dare say, he’s definitely got his eye on your wife’s blood..."
Gu Qingheng’s face immediately turned grim.
Meanwhile, the battle there had also reached a stalemate, as neither the man nor the fox seemed able to overpower the other, and after fighting for quite a while, they appeared somewhat tired.
"You little beast." The scruffy old man sat atop the wall, looking at Xiaozi perched on the opposite eaves, with a face full of helplessness, "If it weren’t for my old body’s blocked acupoints, I’d have slaughtered you already..."
Xiaozi chirped twice, it was unclear what that meant.
"Xiaozi." Nian Qianqian called out.
Xiaozi instantly darted into Nian Qianqian’s arms.
"You wretched woman, why did you unleash that little beast on me?" The scruffy old man jumped down, and slapped the already colorless and torn hem of his robes.
"Who would’ve thought the renowned King Hades would fall to such a state?" Nian Qianqian sneered coldly.
"King Hades? Who’s King Hades?" The old man scratched his head, "Why are you randomly naming people? My name is Ming Guang, meaning pure and bright." He smiled with a Heihei laugh, revealing a set of bright teeth.
Nian Qianqian frowned.
"I want to find that girl." The old man claiming to be Ming Guang said and proceeded to go inside.
Gu Qingheng, however, reached out and stopped him: "Senior, we do not know each other, please leave."
"I don’t know you, but I know that girl." Ming Guang waved his hand, "She treated me to roasted chicken, it was delicious."
