Free Web NovelHe remembered that Bai Xue was hit by the Purple Gold Flame Scorpion and had her nutrients extracted.
But he intervened just in time!
Could it be that she wasn't saved?
Bai Xue is a top-tier combatant!
It would be such a pity if she died.
Sun Yaoyao tilted her head and said:
"It's nothing, Sister Xue'Er just needs a couple more days to recover."
"Hmm?"
Wang Hao looked at her, then at the woman, and suddenly an absurd thought popped into his mind.
He stared wide-eyed at the woman in disbelief and asked, "Beauty, are you...?"
"I'm Bai Xue! Brother Hao, are you still not clear-headed?"
Bai Xue looked at Wang Hao oddly.
"What?"
Wang Hao was so shocked he almost stood up.
Thinking of Bai Xue's previous appearance, then looking at the woman now.
He would rather believe he was Emperor Qin Shi Huang than believe this beauty was Bai Xue!
"Oh come on, Brother Hao, no need to be so surprised. I just lost some weight."
Bai Xue had a slightly smug smile on her face.
She was quite pleased with her current looks.
"What happened here?"
Wang Hao looked at Sun Yaoyao.
Is this place turning people around?
"It's all thanks to that Purple Gold Flame Scorpion. It extracted most of Sister Xue'Er's nutrients. I removed the excess skin, used healing superpower, and she slimmed down."
Sun Yaoyao shrugged, continuing, "It's fortunate Sister Xue'Er had some weight, otherwise losing so many nutrients could have been fatal."
"Wow, that's quite a move!"
Wang Hao was still in a daze.
He couldn't help but think, indeed, every chubby person is a hidden potential!
That Lao Liu really struck gold.
A beauty of Bai Xue's level doesn't come by easily.
Not to mention she's a powerful superpower user.
....
At night
Chen Lingxue dragged her tired body back to the villa.
These days, there were so many issues in the gathering place.
Not just post-disaster reconstruction, but also handling the numerous scorpion corpses and fending off zombie attacks.
Additionally, there was external pressure.
Luckily, she was there, otherwise, with just Sun Yaoyao, the little girl would probably cry from stress.
"Lingxue!"
In the living room, Wang Hao greeted Chen Lingxue.
Chen Lingxue walked over quickly, sat beside him, leaned back on the sofa, and rubbed her temples.
"You've worked hard these past few days."
Wang Hao said with a smile.
"It's nothing, I was born to work hard."
Chen Lingxue smiled lightly, then her expression became serious:
"Wang Hao, other matters are secondary, but offending that one from the North is rather problematic."
"What, he can actually send troops to attack me?"
Wang Hao responded with a bit of humor.
He was somewhat wary of Emperor Wushuang.
Despite having previously overpowered him, torturing and flaying him.
It must be noted that that was only an avatar constructed from one of the nine tripods.
If his true form came with the other eight tripods, even with the Vajra Indestructible Body, he might not be able to win.
The nine tripods are of significant origin.
They are genuine Emperor Dao Divine Artifacts, possessing numerous mysterious abilities.
Additionally, his settlement camp is teeming with experts.
If they truly launched an attack, his gathering place wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Sending troops isn't realistic. The North isn't fully under his control yet, plus with the rampant spirit beasts, if he diverts too many superpower users to attack, their internal defenses would drop significantly. He wouldn't dare push you to the brink."
Chen Lingxue said calmly.
If a powerhouse of Wang Hao's caliber were to have no scruples, it would be extremely dangerous.
In many cultivation novels, people would rather offend a sect-backed top-tier powerhouse than a powerful loose cultivator.
These people, unburdened and unrestrained, would stop at nothing if provoked.
"However, they're very angry and demand you hand over the Yangzhou Tripod immediately, or else there will be a complete fallout."
Chen Lingxue looked at Wang Hao helplessly.
The weight of Emperor Wushuang's name was overwhelming.
If possible, she didn't want Wang Hao to fall out with him.
However, she had heard about the previous incident and didn't blame Wang Hao.
They had already come knocking. If he didn't fight back, it would be cowardly.
"A fallout it is, am I supposed to be scared?"
Wang Hao sneered disdainfully: "Notify immediately, have Dongfeng Express lock onto his lair, if there's a war, I'll let him watch fireworks."
Chen Lingxue: ....
"Ignore that Northern guy for now. I have nothing to lose, he can't afford to gamble. Let's talk about the current events at the first, second settlement camps, and Modu Settlement Camp."
Wang Hao poured himself a cup of tea and said nonchalantly.
"No news from the second settlement camp. Seems they haven't given up on Yan Feng and his group, likely having secretly sent experts for rescue.
The first settlement camp sent congratulations, expressing their full support for you to become the spokesman for the Changsanjiang Alliance and supporting your unification of the South.
Modu's stance is ambiguous, they're actively in contact with us, seeking cooperation, but haven't mentioned selecting you as the spokesman."
Chen Lingxue paused, gazed at Wang Hao, and continued:
"I suspect they're waiting. If you manage to take down Yan Feng, they'll accept it completely and fully support you as the spokesman. freewebnσvel.cѳm
If Yan Feng escapes by luck, that would prove he's got Emperor Dao's fortune, meaning temporary success doesn't represent anything, as long as he lives, there's hope on their side."
"Yan Feng has lived long enough, he should be finished."
Wang Hao said lightly.
Yan Feng and his group have already been closely surrounded, their active range is quite limited, making it easy to find them.
But the Charming Man and Black Mist Man dare not fight directly.
If they go all out, unknown lives would be lost.
Thus, this final battle still requires Wang Hao to take action personally.
"Lingxue, what do you think? Isn't my place nice? Want to stay here?"
Wang Hao put his arm around Chen Lingxue, with a faint smile on his face:
"That Emperor Wushuang boasts a lot, but wasn't he beaten like a dead dog by me? I'm the most heroic man."
He felt a bit aggrieved towards Chen Lingxue.
But he didn't blame her, after all, she comes from a well-considered family with many considerations.
Plus, she has to respect her father's opinion.
In the battle of Xuanwu Lake, she stood by his side rather than choosing to remain passive, which was already commendable.
Far beyond Wang Hao's expectations.
Now that Chen Tingting is gone, the villa community needs a strong woman for management.
Chen Lingxue is clearly the best candidate, and if she doesn't stay, he might have to rely on Yang Lu.
That woman isn't as well understood as Chen Lingxue.
Besides, he doesn't have much interest in Yang Lu, not planning to bring her into the harem for now.
"I can help manage things here for a while, but there's a lot to handle back at my shelter.
I might have to return there occasionally."
Chen Lingxue pondered for a moment before replying.
Though she favors Wang Hao personally, it's not a decision she can make alone.
In terms of cultivation, choosing Emperor Wushuang or even Xu Tian would be more advantageous than Wang Hao.
After all, with harmony of dragon and phoenix, dual cultivation could rapidly boost strength, and superpowers might even transform.
"Alright then, I'll entrust things here to you temporarily."
Wang Hao patted Chen Lingxue's shoulder: "I'll head out to kill Yan Feng soon, and when I return, I'll take you around a bit. My place doesn't have as many things as the first settlement camp.
I'll take you and Xu Xiang to explore there, since it would be a waste to come here and not buy some home goods."
"Thank you!"
Chen Lingxue expressed her gratitude.
Part of their intent in coming was also exactly this.
