Chapter 386 - Hu Chong Again

However, just when Wang Yuanba thought that this time, he would return empty-handed, the creaking sound of the door opening startled him, and caused him to stop in his tracks.

Turning his head to look, Wang Yuanba could not believe what he just saw, his eyes widened, because he saw the tightly shut doors of the Old Man Green Bamboo courtyard actually opening.

"How … How is this possible? I was rejected when I came here to speak loudly." Wang Yuanba then stared at Ling Xiao's back and muttered to himself.

However, at this time, Ling Xiao was not paying attention to Wang Yuanba's performance, but was instead looking at the person walking out of the courtyard with a smile.

It was a very familiar face, and he believed that the other party had not forgotten about him either. Ling Xiao did not speak, and only smiled at him, while the other party's calm and tranquil expression from the start had gradually become solemn and nervous.

Even after a period of separation, it was still Ling Xiao's complete victory.

"Ling Xiao, you are still as overbearing as before, your aura is still as terrifying as before." Hu Chong took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Ling Xiao gave a bland laugh, "Seems like you still remember me."

The fox faced his face and pretended to be calm as it said, "Naturally, I will engrave it in my heart. You are the strongest person I've ever met."

Wang Yuanba, who was at the side, had a face full of doubt as he heard the conversation between the two, because he didn't know what had happened. But Wang Yuanba knew about Linghu Chong, and he also knew that he was from Huashan Mountain.

Originally, Wang Yuanba wanted to see some expression of disdain or disrespect towards Ling Xiao from Linghu Chong's face, but he didn't expect that with just a few words, Hu Chong's imposing aura was completely suppressed by Ling Xiao.

Could it be that Ling Xiao was really that scary?

After Wang Yuanba thought for a while, he decided to not provoke Ling Xiao.

This was the first time Wang Yuanba was afraid of others in his own territory.

"I came here today to visit the Old Man Green Bamboo, but I didn't expect you to be here. What a coincidence." Ling Xiao said.

Hearing this, Hu Chong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and say: "Then you have to thank me. If it wasn't for me, Old Man Green Bamboo definitely wouldn't have opened the door."

Looking at Hu Chong's arrogant expression, Ling Xiao did not seem to care at all. Smiling lightly, he said, "Really? Then we should thank you well. If there's a chance, we should consider it carefully. After all, it's been a long time since we've seen each other."

It was only then that he realized that not only was Ling Xiao strong, his skin was also thick and honest to a certain extent.

"Since you're here, why don't you come in and take a seat. But I have to remind you, Old Man Green Bamboo doesn't like people with a purpose." After speaking to Ling Xiao, Hu Chong once again turned to look at Wang Yuanba. It was obvious that he had a deep impression of this person who frequently came to disturb him.

Wang Yuanba laughed awkwardly, and did not dare say much.

Although Hu Chong was just a young lad, Wang Yuanba didn't dare to do anything since he was following Old Man Green Bamboo.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao nodded: "This should be the intentions of the old man from Old Man Green Bamboo.

With that said, Ling Xiao immediately walked into the courtyard. Wang Yuanba who was behind him, upon seeing this, immediately followed him in, speeding up his pace and following, afraid that if he was even a few steps too late, he would not be allowed in.

After entering the courtyard, Ling Xiao saw that the entire courtyard was filled with flowers and plants, it looked more like a flower garden.

After Hu Chong closed the courtyard door, he came to the two of them and explained, "Old Man Green Bamboo usually likes to fiddle around with these flowers and grasses, you must be careful when you go over there, don't trample on Old Mr's treasures."

Hearing that Hu Chong spoke of Old Mr with such respect, Wang Yuanba did not dare be rash, and nodded in agreement.

Ling Xiao only nodded slightly, and said: "When you come to my place, you should be careful in everything you do, but you shouldn't be so cautious just because certain things are the master's treasures.

Hearing this, Hu Chong was startled, thinking that it was no wonder that Ling Xiao was able to tame so many people in Huashan Mountain, he then made a gesture to invite him in, and said: "Ling Xiao, please."

After passing through the flower beds, they arrived at the courtyard. It was a thatched cottage. The room was very large, and one could feel a sense of emptiness when entering it.

In the center of the room, Old Man Green Bamboo was holding onto a book and reading it with interest. It was as if he did not notice Ling Xiao and the others had arrived.

After bringing Ling Xiao and Wang Yuanba into the house, Hu Chong walked straight up to Old Man Green Bamboo's side and poured Old Man Green Bamboo a cup of tea.

Seeing that, Ling Xiao squinted his eyes, then walked over and directly sat opposite of Old Man Green Bamboo.

When Wang Yuanba saw Ling Xiao being so straightforward, his heart skipped a beat. However, Ling Xiao was simply too fast, and couldn't be stopped even if he wanted to. Even if he stood where he was, he wouldn't dare to go, and he couldn't retreat either.

Hu Chong didn't think that Ling Xiao would be so arrogant, he didn't even respect the Old Man Green Bamboo and just sat down, looking at Ling Xiao with a gaze of ridicule, as if saying that he was finished, and actually had the guts to sit opposite the Old Man Green Bamboo.

But after a while, Old Man Green Bamboo was still reading. He opened his mouth and said, "Since there is a guest here, why don't you serve him some tea? If this were to spread, wouldn't it be too rude for my Old Man Green Bamboo to treat others like this?"

It was obvious that he did not expect Old Man Green Bamboo to not be angry, he was extremely confused in his heart, but he did not dare to ask, so he could only obediently serve Ling Xiao tea.

When Wang Yuanba, who was not far away saw this scene, was also startled. After reacting to the situation, he immediately walked to Ling Xiao's side and sat down, waiting for Hu Chong to pour him some tea. However, after a period of time, Ling Xiao's tea-water had already become fresh, and in front of him, it was still empty.

Just like this, the sound of pages flipping and the sound of Hu Qian pouring water could be heard from time to time in the room. After which, Ling Xiao sipped his tea and waited for Old Man Green Bamboo to finish reading it while looking at the three of them with extreme helplessness.

With a "pa" sound, the book in Old Man Green Bamboo's hands closed and he raised his head to look at Ling Xiao.

"I didn't want to open the door to see you when I found out who was next to you." The Old Man Green Bamboo said.

"Oh? "So what if I'm the only one here?" Ling Xiao put down the teacup in his hand and asked with interest.

Old Man Green Bamboo smiled and said, "Of course I'm very welcome. I'm very interested in the story of Sect Leader Ling, I just don't know if Sect Leader Ling is willing to tell it to me."
