The Demonic King Chases His Wife

This sort of fusion required a lot of time to cultivate and settle, but what Su Luo currently lacked the most was time. As the assessment was nearing, Su Luo could only accept it without thinking and ‘ingest’ her Strength Arm Bone, letting it settle slowly sometime in the future instead.

Leng Xiao and Old Ning arrived at the Midstream Mountain together.

When they arrived, there were still two hours left until the assessment began.

There were already many candidates standing in front of the Tower of Trials. It was bustling and noisy like a busy square.

Leng Xiao subconsciously looked for Su Luo and was disappointed when he couldn’t find her. How strange!

Leng Xiao turned around and asked the gatekeeper, “Has anyone from the Downstream Mountain entered yet?”

As Su Luo and the others were from Downstream Mountain, they had to provide verification that they were ranked in the top three if they wanted to enter.

He remembered that only Su Luo and Big Sister Wei came to the assessment this time. As for the third-place Rong Jun, he had given up and decided to try taking the assessment again the following month.

The gatekeeper shook his head: “Not yet.”

A sharp look flashed in Leng Xiao’s eyes, and he grabbed the gatekeeper by the collar: “Are you certain?!”

The gatekeeper turned pale but still shook his head affirmatively: “I’m certain. The people from Downstream Mountain truly haven’t arrived!”

Leng Xiao pushed the gatekeeper to the side.

Hadn’t arrived, hadn’t arrived...! In other words, Su Luo still had yet to arrive???

He had been chasing her so relentlessly, desperately wanting to kill her. Yet Su Luo had turned back? Wasn’t this a bit too absurd?

As if to support this absurdity, Su Luo along with Big Sister Wei strutted in through the door right at that moment. When they stepped inside, they even waved their ranking verification in front of the gatekeeper.

“From Downstream Mountain!” The gatekeeper subconsciously raised his voice, glaring at Su Luo!

Su Luo glanced at him suspiciously. Why was there such a fuss about coming from Downstream Mountain?

Hearing this exclamation, Leng Xiao, who had not yet gone far ahead, turned around and saw Su Luo and Big Sister Wei.

Leng Xiao: “...”

He wanted to give himself a slap in the face! He had been chasing to kill these people, but in the end, they were walking right behind him? What a joke!

Leng Xiao stood there, with his sullen eyes piercing straight towards Su Luo.

However, Su Luo walked past him like nothing was wrong…

Leng Xiao: “...”

“Stop right there!” Leng Xiao said. He looked at Su Luo’s back and questioned with a murderously cold voice: “Where have you been?”

Su Luo smirked and turned to him with a bored look: “And who are you?”

Who are you? These were such arrogant words being said towards Leng Xiao, who ranked first in the Midstream Mountain!

At this time, onlookers watched with amusement at this reckless [1] girl who just came over to Midstream Mountain.

“Tsk, tsk. She is indeed really pretty. But only her face matured; her brain didn’t. She even dared to offend Boss Leng?”

“Yeah, so what if they’re ranked among the top three in Downstream Mountain? Don’t they know they are now in the bottom three after coming to our Midstream Mountain? What useless pride!”

“She’ll suffer for offending our Boss Xiao. This girl is too reckless.”

The two people were now facing each other, standing about three meters apart. Around them, a crowd that was growing larger and larger gathered to watch. All of them were gossiping happily as if watching a show, wishing the two of them would fight on the spot.

The onlookers’ discussions didn’t seem to quiet down. Instead, all of them raised their voices as if in fear that the two people would be unable to hear them. Various provocations filled the air.
