Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl

Chapter 490: Chapter 490: I’ve Made Up My Mind

Yes, I was indeed in seclusion before.

But…

Qingxuan City?

A pill-making competition?

He suddenly remembered. Apparently, there was such an event. After seeing Kong Yuhuai for the first time, he had mentioned taking part in a pill-making competition.

According to the time, it should be happening right now!

And it’s being held in Qingxuan City, of all places!

“I’m at Zijing Pavilion. Come over tomorrow and we’ll have a good drink together, brother.”

Jiang Xiaobai then sent this message and stopped thinking about it.

As expected, the whole of Qingxuan City was aflutter the next morning. Representatives from all the pill-making forces had arrived!

Qingxuan City was bustling, overflowing with people!

Even within Zijing Pavilion, you could feel the lively atmosphere outside. In the morning, Jiang Xiaobai had even heard that the pill-making competition was going to be held on the massive square across from Zijing Pavilion.

What a coincidence!

“Ao Cheng, let’s go. We’re about to receive a good friend!”

Jiang Xiaobai found Ao Cheng, who was sneaking peaks at Lin Zi and Ao Yan’s conversation, and called out to him.

Ao Cheng had a puzzled look on his face: “A good friend? Who has such a big ego that they need to be received personally?”

“You’ll find out when you see it. Besides, the city is going to be lively these days. Let’s go join in the fun. We’re not in a hurry to leave anyway. If we do decide to leave, we can use a teleportation array.”

Jiang Xiaobai spoke and then left, dragging Ao Cheng along by the shoulder.

Upon stepping out of Zijing Pavilion, the outside was indeed bustling. Many stages were being set up on the massive square not far off.

In the sea of people, Ao Cheng followed Jiang Xiaobai in the direction of the city gate.

After walking for a while, Ao Cheng suddenly realized something: “Wait, are we leaving the city?”

“Of course we are!”

“But the Creepy Dude, the grave keeper from the holy city, is still outside. Are you sure?” Ao Cheng asked in astonishment.

He then saw a cold smile appear on Jiang Xiaobai’s face.

“Of course. Other than receiving a friend of ours this time, there’s another matter. The Creepy Dude will be a permanent problem.”

After learning about Gu Ning’s massacre last night, Jiang Xiaobai had been thinking of a plan for the Creepy Dude.

Otherwise, it wasn’t right for this guy to keep bothering him.

Especially since they were going to enter the secret location in a few days. If the Creepy Dude came this time, he might also follow them there.

It would be a big problem at that time then.

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t want unnecessary trouble, since he didn’t know what the situation would be like inside the secret location.

As expected, once the two of them left the city, the Creepy Dude appeared suddenly in front of Jiang Xiaobai.

The guy really hadn’t left!

“Jiang Xiaobai, you’ve got guts, huh? You dare to come out alone?”

“Are you blind or just messing with me? Can’t you see me here?” Ao Cheng was instantly infuriated!

His father! Just because he was a bit more powerful, he thought he could look down on others?

Yet the Creepy Dude didn’t pay any attention to Ao Cheng. He totally ignored him.

“So you came out so fearlessly. What do you want?”

“What’s your back-up plan? Or have you thought it through and decided to hand over the stuff to me?”

The Creepy Dude sneered.

He wasn’t a fool. Knowing Jiang Xiaobai, if he saw him, he would avoid him at all costs. Suddenly approaching him on his own indicated something was fishy.

“I’ve thought it through, but I have a condition.” Jiang Xiaobai said nonchalantly: “I can give you the item, but you must compensate me for it.”

“What kind of compensation do you want, spirit stones or celestial stones?” The Creepy Dude scoffed: “Don’t get your hopes up. If I spare your life, that’ll be more than enough face for you.”

“Is that so? Then, it appears there’s no room for negotiation. Worst case, we all die together.”

Jiang Xiaobai said, as a red light sphere appeared in his hand.

The Slaying Immortal Sword Array!

Seeing this object, the color drained from the Creepy Dude’s face.

He knew he was no match for this thing. The terrifying aura it emitted was heart-stopping.

The Creepy Dude even had the feeling that he wouldn’t be able to withstand a single hit from this thing!

Just what was Jiang Xiaobai made of? Not only was his strength increasing at a rapid pace, his methods were also numerous!

“As a grave keeper from the holy city, you must know the situation of the War God Temple at the time, right?”

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the startled Creepy Dude and said indifferently, “What do you think? How many swords would it take for my master to kill you?”

At these words, the Creepy Dude’s expression changed drastically.

Being from the holy city, he of course knew about the situation of the War God Temple. Despite there being numerous powers in the holy city, the situation sent chills down people’s backs. Especially Jiang Xiaobai’s master, he was terrifying.

However, the Creepy Dude had always believed that since he was at the Emperor rank, even if the other party was strong, they wouldn’t dare to move against him.

Moreover, because of his unique status, the Creepy Dude always acted arrogantly and recklessly and didn’t take what happened at the War God Temple to heart.

But now that Jiang Xiaobai had brought it up, it caused the Creepy Dude to frown.

“What are you trying to say?”

“Nothing much, I’m just asking for some benefits. I can’t just give you these items for free, right?” Jiang Xiaobai said with a beaming smile.

The Creepy Dude was at a loss on how to react to Jiang Xiaobai’s behavior.

If he said that Jiang Xiaobai was threatening him, he couldn’t because he was really scared of that red light sphere.

If he said that Jiang Xiaobai had thought it through, it wouldn’t make sense either.

Showever, thinking of the task given by the Emperor rank, the Creepy Dude clenched his teeth.

“Alright, I’ll give you ten celestial stones. Is that enough?”

“That’s enough! Absolutely enough!”

Jiang Xiaobai was still grinning. He took out the world stone from his storage space and threw it to the Creepy Dude.

The Creepy Dude was straightforward and threw the celestial stones to Jiang Xiaobai without any hesitation.

Looking at the world stone in his hand, the Creepy Dude felt like he was dreaming.

No matter what, as long as the item was in his hand, that was enough!

His priority was to complete the task given by the Emperor rank, that was more important than anything else.

Thinking about it, the Creepy Dude suddenly smiled and threw Jiang Xiaobai a communication token.

“Kid, take this. If you find any more of these things in the future, just give them to me. I’ll definitely give you adequate compensation, and I can even let you strut around freely in the holy city!”

“Of course, of course!”

Jiang Xiaobai was still grinning from ear to ear.

Until the Creepy Dude left, he felt like something was off, but he didn’t think too much. After all, in his view, Jiang Xiaobai wouldn’t be a threat to him.

Meanwhile, Ao Cheng was still confused: “Jiang Xiaobai, what did you mean?”

“I’ve never seen you spit out something you’ve swallowed before!”

“Hehe, of course.” Jiang Xiaobai’s smile turned into a cold one: “I just want to store the item with him temporarily for the sake of the smooth progression of our next steps, to avoid any mishaps.”

“If you want to take my things, you’re going to have to pay the price.”

Just as he was saying this, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them.

The two people in the lead were ones that both Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Cheng recognized.

“Kong Yuhuai, Xu Nianliang?”

Ao Cheng was stunned: “Damn it, the guy really came!”
