Fool Emperor and Hartless Consort - C168
Bu Jinghua’s “disappearance” was hard for people to accept, but it did not hinder the earth’s rotation. The earth was still spinning, and the sun was still rising and setting, rising and setting.
The day of Bu Jinghua’s challenge had also come at the right time. Today was the day for Bu Jinghua and Long Yi to compete, and the sun was bright and beautiful today. Waves of cool breeze were slowly blowing. This kind of weather was the most comfortable in this hot summer.
However, many people had forgotten about this important day, because many people believed that it was impossible for Bu Jinghua to appear all of a sudden. Everyone was very clear about the significance of Bu Jinghua’s disappearance, and even the dragon shield could not be faked. Even Bai Ling had secretly searched for Bu Jinghua, but she did not find him, so Bu Jinghua’s disappearance was slowly becoming an out-of-date legend.
However, there were quite a few people who did not forget about Bu Jinghua. Until now, they had always believed that Bu Jinghua would definitely return. Just like the previous battle with Gongzi Ying, didn’t everyone think that she would not appear? At the last moment, didn’t she appear so arrogantly?
They even believed that Bu Jinghua’s reappearance would definitely cause them to be taken aback. Bu Jinghua was always like this, but once he appeared, everything would change. Because, she was a rare legend!
Today, Long Yi had even set up the biggest battle arena in the history of the city, and was even preaching loudly, as if afraid that some people wouldn’t know about it. Early in the morning, the entire area was surrounded by spectators, but after waiting for a long time, they didn’t see any fights, and then these people gradually dispersed, and after leaving, they even pointed at Bu Jinghua, saying that he wouldn’t appear, and Bu Jinghua was dead for sure.
However, Long Yi didn’t give up at all, nor did he intend to leave the arena. He took a chair and quietly sat on the stage, waiting.
“Second brother, don’t wait anymore, she won’t come. She’s already gone, she might already be dead! “Let’s go back!” Long Lie and Long Da really couldn’t bear to see Long Yi’s actions any longer. Some people in the crowd even heard that the Second Prince was also stupid, so they didn’t have the heart to do so. They did their best to persuade Long Yi, who was still waiting on the stage.
“Nonsense, how could that woman have died so easily? Today, I must wait. Otherwise, she will use this as an excuse to say that I am afraid of him! ” This was Long Yi’s explanation. In fact, he himself wasn’t too sure of his own outcome. All he knew was that he had to continue waiting. He didn’t want to end up in the hands of that icy woman in the future.
Long Lie and Long Da could only helplessly shake their heads when they saw such a stubborn dragon feed. They then silently accompanied Long Yi and unwillingly waited by his side.
“Kid, is that girl still not here?” In Old Iron’s iron shop, Old Iron put down what he was doing and looked at Long Yun, who was standing at the side, and said with a little sadness.
“En!” Long Yun nodded, changed from the previous evil aura, and said slowly, “However, I believe that she will definitely come back, and that it will be today!” His gaze became abnormally certain. “Old man, have you finished preparing the item?”
“Yes, it’s been prepared. I’ve been waiting for you to come get it!” The size and pattern were the same as Bu Jinghua’s small silver spear, but the color and material were a little different. It was actually made of purple amethyst stone, the shiny purple made the pistol look like a pocket size, but the power of this weapon was indeed made of high quality amethyst stone, it was definitely not something Bu Jinghua’s small silver spear could compare to.
“Hm!” “Thank you!” Long Yun took the two Amethyst Rock pistols, put them into the ring, and put the silver on the table.
“Boy, this is for that girl!” Old man Tie sighed, asking faintly with certainty, “You should take this money back. It’s my responsibility for that girl to be in such a predicament today, I …” His expression was one of extreme self-blame, “Ai …” Old man Tie sighed and finally couldn’t help but wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes. It seemed that he really blamed himself.
“Old man, don’t be like this, she will definitely be fine!” Long Yun didn’t know why he was so sure. Perhaps he felt that the cold girl wasn’t that cowardly.
“Also, when you see her, tell her that I won’t tell a fourth person about the secret of the small silver spear. In the future, I’ll only make her small silver spear …” Old man Tie said sincerely. He restrained the grief on his face, and then he began to refine iron again.
“Well, I’ll tell her!” Long Yun took back his silver and nodded, before turning to leave. He did not want to make this old man sad, as he did not want this outcome to happen. If they dared to enter the Ghost Valley Mountain, they were destined to lose their lives, weren’t they?
She started to slowly descend the mountain, using the last bit of the afterglow to scatter across the land. She dyed the land with a layer of faint pink sunset, making it look especially beautiful, but no one was able to appreciate such a beautiful scene. On the contrary, she felt that time had passed so quickly, the damn sun had actually gone down the mountain, it couldn’t be, because Bu Jinghua had yet to appear.
Long Yi was still waiting at the arena. As he watched the sky darken, his expression became more and more disappointed … Perhaps, she really wouldn’t come back!
Reality made him believe that Bu Jinghua’s disappearance was real. It was very likely that he was already dead …
“Second Brother, don’t wait anymore. It’s going to be dark soon. You haven’t eaten properly for an entire day. Let’s go back quickly!” Long Lie comforted her.
“Yeah, second brother, we’ve waited for so long, but she still hasn’t appeared. She probably won’t appear, let’s go back!” Long Da also agreed.
This time, Long Yi had lost his reason to refute. In his heart, he had admitted that Bu Jinghua was not coming back …
“Let’s go back!” Long Yi let out a deep sigh. He felt disappointed and his mood wasn’t very good either. He didn’t know whether it was because he had been promised or for some other reason, but his mood was rather bad right now. He couldn’t help but think of the face that had always been trying to curry favor with him, followed by that cold face … He thought she was funny, but then she got married, even disappeared, and it was amazing, but were you trying to mess with him?
Just as Long Yi was about to give up waiting, an extremely cold voice broke the silent atmosphere.
“It’s not over yet, why are you closing up so quickly? Are you really looking down on me, Bu Jinghua?!” A slightly young but still domineering voice sounded. Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice and found that Bu Jinghua had actually appeared at the other side of the stage.
They didn’t even know when this girl had arrived. She must have come up here on purpose. Otherwise, how could her movements be so fast?
With the appearance of Bu Jinghua, it was no doubt that the three of them were surprised, especially Long Yi, who was pleasantly surprised. He could not help but slightly raise the corner of his mouth, as if his mood had instantly improved.
The news scouts who had come here without any business were planning to disperse just like that. They also thought that things would turn for the better at the last moment, so they immediately ran back to spread the news: Bu Jinghua had appeared and appeared out of nowhere. They were now preparing to compete with the Second Prince.
“Bu Jinghua, you’re finally here!” He stared at the young girl in front of him with shining eyes. But why did he feel that something was wrong?
Was this really Bu Jinghua?
“Bu Jinghua, why have you lost so much weight?” In his mind, he had a very deep impression of that fat as a pig, Bu Jinghua. That was the fattest and ugliest woman he had ever seen, and people had a very deep impression of the most beautiful and ugly things … However, this Bu Jinghua in front of him was obviously not as large as he was before.
Bu Jinghua did not respond to Long Da’s words. Instead, he stared at Long Yi with a pair of cold, watery eyes, and a smile that was not a smile.
Had she lost weight? She herself did not notice that in the past few days, she had been constantly training. Other than having time to eat and go to the toilet, she had never even stopped training. This kind of hard training made her slim down, but most importantly — the teacher had said that as long as her inner force was close to the five stages’ advanced level which would cause her ‘beauty trouble’, her figure would gradually return to her original appearance. She became thinner, which probably had something to do with her inner force increasing.
She had been bitterly cultivating for the past few days, but the results had not reached the desired result. Fourth phase, she still had not broken through, although she had raised her internal energy from the third phase to the peak of the third phase in just a few days, it was still a monstrous event for anyone.
Everyone knew that this was a stupid thing to do. However, Bu Jinghua would not give up just because he was afraid of losing. Even if he lost, she would not let him, the Bu Clan, lose too much face.
“Bu Jinghua, you are not my opponent! “Admit defeat!” Long Yi stared closely at the young girl in front of him. This young girl was much prettier than that ugly pig-like woman, but her figure was still rather fat. She had only recovered to the range of a normal person’s obesity. However, he still looked much more pleasing to the eye than that fatty.
With just a glance, Long Yi could tell that Bu Jinghua’s internal energy was not even at the fourth phase yet. Although he did not know why the suppression feeling of her internal energy, which was not even at the fourth phase, made him feel stronger than the other people at the peak of the third phase, but wanting to use his internal energy at the fourth phase to deal with the internal energy that he had already reached the sixth phase, hmph, he was underestimating Long Yi too much.
“Hmph, admitting defeat before the battle even begins? It seems that you think of me, Bu Jinghua, as a bold and talkative little kid! Let me tell you, I, Bu Jinghua, have not come here today to admit defeat. Even if I lose, you better not dream of winning too easily! ” Bu Jinghua lifted up his right hand, pointed with his index finger, and made a hook. His provocation could not be any clearer.
“Hmph, that’s more like Bu Jinghua, isn’t it!?” Long Yi didn’t get angry in the face of such arrogant provocation. Instead, he laughed heartily as if he was quite happy. Long Da and Long Lie who were watching on the side were a bit at a loss for what to do. Bu Jinghua’s appearance had already piqued Long Dingzi’s interest, and his words made him feel that this woman in front of him was something he should not underestimate. Moreover, his bitter training these days would always come in handy, and he was more interested to see what kind of ability this woman had to dare to say such arrogant words to him.
He had heard that she had won many thrilling victories and even won many monstrous victories. If she had missed that one time, it would truly make Long Yi feel a little bit of regret, but today, as the main protagonist, she could finally personally meet this legendary ‘enchanter’, how could he not be excited?
Moreover, a few days ago this woman had only recently advanced to the third phase, she didn’t expect to reach the peak of the third phase in just a few days, this woman, she really couldn’t make others underestimate her. Looking at her calm demeanor, it was likely that this wasn’t the result of using forbidden drugs … This woman might be even more monstrous than what he’d heard.
