Indestructible God King - Chapter 148.3
Chapter 148.3 Bring Him to the Dragon Gate Assembly (3/3)
Zi Bufan’s eyes were filled with gentleness and care. She remained silent for a moment before saying, “I will be using it for the coming Dragon Gate Assembly!”
“The Dragon Gate Assembly?” Zhu Hongyi was a little confused. He could not figure out what its purpose would be.
“All right then. May I leave now?” Zi Bufan asked.
“That dragon inside Zhu Yan may explode at any moment!” Zhu Hongyi warned with a frown.
Before Zi Bufan could reply—Wang Ke interjected, “Parlor Lord Zhu is worried that the explosion might hurt you!”
“Wang Ke, keep quiet!” Zhu Hongyi shot him a stare.
Zi Bufan and I are talking. Why do you always butt in and twist my words to sound that I care for her? Are you nuts?
Wang Ke had no other choice. The two of you talk as if quarreling. Zi Bufan just spared me from past grudges. What if she goes back on her word if things heat up?
“Parlor Lord Zi, expressing feelings is not Parlor Lord Zhu’s forte. You’ve known him for so many years; please be a bit more understanding!” Wang Ke kept on with the pandering act.
Zi Bufan was no longer angry, she looked gently at Zhu Hongyi and said, “Zhu Hongyi, looks like you still have a heart!”
Zhu Hongyi: “……………….!”
Zi Bufan walked up to Zhu Hongyi with an affectionate look and compromised with a gentle tone, “If you are really concerned about my safety, bring him to me during the Dragon Gate Assembly! You just have to take him there, and that is all!”
Zhu Hongyi: “…………………………!”
Damn. I only wanted to know why you captured the gold dragon. You’re being misled by Wang Ke!
I’ll be kicked out of the house if I look for you during the Dragon Gate Assembly and Qing’er finds out!
“No way. I’m not going to the Dragon Gate Assembly!” Zhu Hongyi rejected her immediately.
“Hmm?” Zi Bufan frowned.
“I’m just asking about the purpose of using that dragon!” Zhu Hongyi repeated his question.
Zi Bufan shook her head. “I can’t say. Let’s just settle things this way; I will wait for you at the Dragon Gate Assembly.”
“I won’t be there!” Zhu Hongyi insisted.
“You!” Zi Bufan stared at him.
“Parlor Lord Zi, please stay calm. Parlor Lord Zhu is more of the rough sort. Take it slowly, slowly!” Wang Ke persuaded her again.
Zi Bufan thought about it and agreed with Wang Ke.
“Humph, Zhu Hongyi, I don’t care what you say. I’ll be waiting for you at the assembly. Zhu Yan will pay if you don’t bring him yourself!” Zi Bufan said grudgingly.
“This has nothing to do with me!” Zhu Yan exclaimed in despair.
Zi Bufan shouted to her subordinates in the distance.“You guys, take a look and see if the Golden Crow Sect disciples are still around. Bring them along!”
“Parlor Lord, I couldn’t find any of them. They may have been crushed to a pulp or buried alive under the rubble!” a demonic sect disciple reported.
“All gone? Forget it then! We should be leaving now!” Zi Bufan said.
“Understood!” the demonic minions responded.
Zi Bufan took a step forward, almost leaning onto Zhu Hongyi.
“Zhu Hongyi, remember. Bring Zhu Yan to the Dragon Gate Assembly. Be there or be a square!” Zi Bufan reminded him with a smile.
Before Zhu Hongyi could react and reject her—Zi Bufan suddenly closed in on Zhu Hongyi’s face.
“Pop!”
She gave Zhu Hongyi a peck, and Zhu Hongyi opened his eyes wide.
“Hehehe. I will see you at the Dragon Gate Assembly!” Zi Bufan burst out laughing.
Then, she flung her sleeves—a massive black cloud appeared, like countless bats flocking together. The cloud carried Zi Bufan and her subordinates, along with Tong An’an, up into the sky.
Zhu Hongyi stretched out his hand, feeling greatly annoyed.
Be there or be a square? You must be joking! Qing’er will kick me out if she hears word of this!
The fuming Zhu Hongyi turned to glare at Wang Ke, the one who caused all that trouble.
“Parlor Lord Zhu, this has nothing to do with me!” Wang Ke quickly jumped to defend himself.
“Nothing to do with you? Humph, fine; it’s unrelated to you. So, Wang Ke, I helped you quite a bit this time, wouldn’t you say?” Zhu Hongyi asked sternly.
“Uhh, I guess? Sadly, the Royal Palace has turned into ruins; I will need to pay a lot of money to rebuild it… But you did help me resolve Parlor Lord Zi’s misunderstanding!” Wang Ke replied with a smile.
“Good. Since I helped you, you should help me in return!” Zhu Hongyi said.
“Parlor Lord Zhu, say the word. I can try if it’s within my capacity!” Wang Ke replied cautiously.
“Take Zhu Yan to the Dragon Gate Assembly on my behalf. When the time comes, have Zi Bufan remove the draconic ley line from him!” Zhu Hongyi said.
“What? Me? Take Zhu Yan to that event? No way!” Wang Ke cried out in shock.
Zi Bufan asked for you by name. Wouldn’t she get me for being a busybody if I go instead of you?
Besides, Zhu Yan is infamously good at getting in trouble! I would only be pulled into his mess if I travel with him! Also, the gold dragon in his belly may explode at any moment; why would I carry a time bomb with me?
“Ancestral uncle, I don’t want to travel with Wang Ke!” Zhu Yan cried out in dismay.
“Yeah, yeah! You have so many subordinates. Any of them would be better than me! Have them take Zhu Yan there!” Wang Ke quickly pushed the task away.
A bunch of Zhu Hongyi’s subordinates quickly objected, “No, no! Zhu Yan’s a troublemaker; we don’t want him. Brother Wang, we thank you in advance for your hard work!”
Wang Ke: “………………….!”
Zhu Yan: “……………………..!”
Everyone is sick of Zhu Yan?
“Enough, Wang Ke! Since your Divine Dragon Branch doesn’t have a disciple yet, Zhu Yan will be your first! This decision is final!” Zhu Hongyi declared seriously.
“Why!?” Wang Ke cried out reluctantly.
“No!” Zhu Yan also objected.
Me? Become Wang Ke’s disciple? That’s ridiculous! Wouldn’t I need to obey his every command?
“Zhu Yan? He’s indeed a real troublemaker. My subordinates can’t handle him; they all hate him. But you, Wang Ke, should be capable of doing it! You just worked together to capture Tong An’an! There’s good chemistry between you! I know you can pull it off!” Zhu Hongyi encouraged Wang Ke.
“I don’t think I can! Most importantly, I also dislike him!” Wang Ke anxiously refused the arrangement.
Zhu Hongyi stared at him and said, “It’s settled then! Wang Ke, you’re not allowed to reject this! I just helped you big time, and yet you’re trying to shy away from such a small favor?”
Wang Ke: “………………….!”
I knew it! There’s no free lunch in this world!
“You’ll be held accountable if Zhu Yan comes to harm before the Dragon Gate Assembly takes place. Humph!” Zhu Hongyi shot him a stare.
Wang Ke: “………………!”
Zhu Hongyi turned and said to his ancestral nephew, “Did you hear what I said just now? You are Wang Ke’s subordinate now. I will slap you good if you dare to disobey him!”
Zhu Yan: “……………………..!”
Despair was written all over Zhu Yan’s face. Why am I so unlucky!
Zhu Hongyi issued his warnings and left before they could complain further. He leaped into the air and flew back toward Divine Dragon Island.
Wang Ke and Zhu Yan watched as the Parlor Lord left. They exchanged looks, and both chose the cold-shoulder treatment. Damn it! What the hell is this all about?
“Hmm? That’s not right! Parlor Lord Zhu just left like that?” Wang Ke said in bewilderment.
“Brother Wang, what’s wrong? If I’m guessing correctly, the Parlor Lord is returning to Divine Dragon Island to see She Qingqing… There’s nothing wrong with that, is there?” a demonic sect disciple asked curiously.
“That’s not the problem. The problem is that Zi Bufan left him with a huge kiss mark on his face! If She Qingqing sees him like that, won’t he…!” Wang Ke hinted.
All the demons were taken aback. They could foresee the kind of domestic tragedy that was to come!
