Chapter 478: Bringing Her Back To His Room
As the saying goes, the heavens follow the wishes of people. Yesterday, Tang San had exhausted his Blue Silver Emperor\'s foundation while cultivating yin-yang energy. Today\'s match allowed him to obtain bloodline power from plant nymphs to replenish and upgrade his Blue Silver Emperor, preventing the yin-yang energy from becoming unstable.
Just as he and Mei Gongzi were talking, they encountered familiar faces. The Dark Gold Demon Bear and the Demon Infant, whom they had seen in the waiting area, had also finished their match and were coming out from another stage.
The Demon Infant sat on the Dark Gold Demon Bear\'s shoulder, grinning. Its large head gave off a particularly sinister feeling.
The Dark Gold Demon Bear\'s eyes glowed faintly red, and judging by the blood on its bear claws, their previous opponents probably had a grim fate.
The Demon Infant cackled at them, then made a throat-slitting gesture.
Asura\'s expression instantly turned cold. He wouldn\'t care about this if it were just him, but the Demon Infant had directed the gesture at Mei Gongzi.
"I hope we meet you in the next round," Asura said coldly.
The Dark Gold Demon Bear didn\'t expect the human to say this and let out a low growl.
The Demon Infant\'s shrill voice echoed, "Calm down. You need to stay calm and control your bloodthirst. We\'ll meet them sooner or later since we\'re in the same group and they seem to have won. On the stage, you can feast. Be good." As it spoke, it patted the Dark Gold Demon Bear\'s head.
Strangely enough, the formidable Dark Gold Demon Bear calmed down under the Demon Infant\'s soothing.
Asura squinted his eyes; he sensed a special connection between the Demon Infant and the Dark Gold Demon Bear.
Mei Gongzi frowned slightly. "Let\'s go."
She clearly had no good impressions of these demons.
"Alright." He just ignored them. As the Demon Infant said, as long as they continued they would meet eventually if they could continue competing.
"Stay and watch, or leave?" Asura asked Mei Gongzi after exiting the competition area.
Mei Gongzi replied, "Didn\'t you say you had a combat technique to teach me? Let\'s do it now. Where are you staying?"
Asura was taken aback. "To my place?"
"Where else? Do you think we should go to my place? My father is there," Mei Gongzi said irritably.
"Ah, right, makes sense, makes sense," Asura said hastily, overjoyed at the opportunity for such private interaction.
Mei Gongzi looked at him suspiciously, seeing his obvious excitement. "You don\'t have any ulterior motives, do you?"
"No, no. I can\'t even beat you. You\'re so strong now. Besides, don\'t you trust my character?" Tang San said with a smile.
"You won\'t even remove your mask to show me your real face. How can I trust you?" Mei Gongzi snorted.
Asura sighed. "I have my reasons. Please understand."
"Let\'s go," Mei Gongzi said without further comment.
Tang San left the Ancestral Court Plaza, leading Mei Gongzi back to the White Tiger Hotel. Many carriages were waiting outside the plaza, as today\'s event had drawn a large crowd, making it a great business opportunity. Tang San rented a carriage and gave the hotel\'s name.
The carriage was small and enclosed, and Asura quickly smelled the faint fragrance emanating from Mei Gongzi.
He wanted to say something but didn\'t know how to start. Mei Gongzi remained silent, making the atmosphere inside the carriage a bit awkward.
There was quite a distance between the competition venue and the White Tiger Hotel. After a while, he couldn\'t help but say something. "Why aren\'t you talking?"
Mei Gongzi glanced at him and said, "Didn\'t you say \'please understand\'? What else is there to say? You know what I want to know."
Tang San hesitated for a moment and then said, "Wait for a bit longer, please. When you become the leader of the Peacock Demon clan and the ruler of Kali City, I\'ll take off my mask and tell you everything. Is that fine?"
Mei Gongzi\'s beautiful eyes stared at him intently. "Will you help me get there?"
Asura nodded without hesitation. "Of course."
"Alright." A faint smile appeared on her pretty face, and she nodded lightly.
"By the way, I asked you to help me find Tang San. Did you look for him?" she suddenly asked.
Hearing the name ""Tang San"" really startled him.
"Uh... I haven\'t had the chance yet. After this competition, I\'ll look for him. Maybe he\'ll be back by the time you return to Kali City. What\'s your relationship with this Tang San?" Although he knew he shouldn\'t ask, he couldn\'t help it, even if the truth might lead to social suicide in the future...
Mei Gongzi thought momentarily and said, "A friend, I suppose. A little guy. He\'s younger than me and usually sweeps the grounds at Kali Academy. He\'s very nice and a bit shy, but for some reason, every time I see him..."
She paused and looked away, as if reminiscing about something.
He really wanted to ask her about her feelings for Tang San, and almost blurted out his thoughts.
I\'m Asura, I\'ve been so good to you, yet you wouldn\'t even give me a milk tea cup, but you gave it to Tang San. Why?
Could it be that fate truly works in mysterious ways? Theoretically, she shouldn\'t retain any impressions from her previous life after reincarnation into another world. Yet, she feels differently about Tang San.
Once the competition ends, Janitor Tang has to return to his role quickly. Little Sweeper Tang seems to have a better chance than Asura, who fights life and death-battles for her.
"What happens when you see him?" Asura asked.
"I can\'t really say," Mei Gongzi shook her head, not revealing her true feelings.
Asura asked, "What about me? Besides not showing you my true face, do you have any other feelings about me?"
Mei Gongzi looked at him, "You\'ve always been helping me, I know that. You also pledged that oath, so I believe that your intentions are honest. But ... I just don’t feel the trust I’m supposed to feelI can\'t fully trust you until I see your true face and know your real intentions. That\'s honestly it."
Seeing her gaze, he felt an urge to just take the mask off and reveal his face. But now wasn\'t the right time. Until the major issues in Kali City were resolved, Asura\'s identity was more convenient for helping her, and he didn’t want to have to explain his bloodline issues for the time being.
"I understand. But please believe that everything I do for you is without expecting anything in return. I will continue to prove with my actions that I am trustworthy," Asura said softly.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Mei Gongzi\'s eyes. She simply replied, "Hmm..." and said nothing more.
Upon arriving at the White Tiger Hotel, Tang San helped Mei Gongzi off the carriage. As they walked into the hotel, he asked, "By the way, where are you staying here in the Ancestral Court?"
Mei Gongzi replied, "Family property."
Tang San immediately understood. The Peacock demon clan had produced a Demon Emperor before, so having family properties in the Ancestral Court was completely normal.
He led Mei Gongzi upstairs to his room.
