Chapter 2371 How Can People Who Have Seen a True Dragon Be Willing To Stay Beside A Serpent? (1)
After a round of battles, w.a.n.g Teng was already exhausted—the opponents he faced far beyond his own realm.
Having forcibly unleashed various physical abilities earlier undoubtedly depleted a significant amount of his physical and spiritual strength. Coupled with the pressure from Elder Hui, his body was cracking, many wounds were left unhealed. Even with his const.i.tution, he needed a good rest.
At this moment, Guizang Yan, Yizang Xinnuo, and the others flew over.
"Brother Han… Brother w.a.n.g Teng!" Yizang Xinnuo looked at the somewhat unfamiliar face before her, seemingly searching for a hint of familiarity belonging to Han Zhu.
Upon close observation, she surprisingly found a trace of Han Zhu"s shadow on w.a.n.g Teng"s face.
Previously, when the two stood together, she had not noticed any anomalies.
But now, knowing the relations.h.i.+p between w.a.n.g Teng and Han Zhu, she inexplicably felt that there were still many similarities between the two.
The eyes, nose, mouth, and so on, although all adjusted, still had some details that overlapped with the present w.a.n.g Teng, indicating that Han Zhu"s appearance was merely a modification based on w.a.n.g Teng"s appearance.
No wonder he was so handsome!
Councilor w.a.n.g Teng was ridiculously handsome, even more so than Han Zhu.
With such thoughts, Yizang Xinnuo suddenly felt that the matter of w.a.n.g Teng being Han Zhu wasn"t so difficult to accept after all.
"Miss Xinnuo!" w.a.n.g Teng nodded.
He suddenly felt a bit awkward, looking at her gaze, feeling as if he were a sc.u.mbag deceiving someone"s feelings, even though he hadn"t done anything.
Well, yes, he hadn"t deceived anyone"s feelings, just normal interaction, nothing deceitful.
w.a.n.g Teng immediately dismissed his thoughts, finding ten thousand reasons in his heart. He wasn"t a sc.u.mbag!
The strange atmosphere between Yizang Xinnuo and w.a.n.g Teng caught the attention of the family heads and the ancestors of the five major families.
Especially their expressions, it seemed…
They seemed to have discovered something astonis.h.i.+ng!
Everyone present was astute, able to discern that Yizang Xinnuo"s expression seemed slightly off.
At that moment, they pondered many things, then exchanged glances one by one, their faces revealing profound smiles.
w.a.n.g Teng had inherited the five major family"s most powerful talent, and they were unsure how to handle it.
But now, seeing the two"s demeanor, they suddenly understood!
They had a solution!!!
Yizang Xinnuo and w.a.n.g Teng didn"t notice the strange behavior of these old-timers.
On the side, Guizang Yan, Hengzang Mo, and others watched w.a.n.g Teng with equally complex gazes, yet they didn"t detect anything unusual about their ancestors" expressions.
"Let"s go, let"s head back first," One of the five major family"s eternal-stage ancestors suddenly chuckled, speaking up.
Without any doubt, everyone immediately flew towards the Fifth Burial Star.
w.a.n.g Teng"s gaze swept across the starry sky, gathering all the attribute bubbles without rus.h.i.+ng to sort them out, preparing to return first before anything else.
Many martial warriors in the starry sky followed suit, heading towards the Five Burial Stars since the Black Skull Universe Pirates had departed, and they saw no need to leave in haste.
Many of these martial warriors were natives of the Five Burial Stars, deeply rooted there and not easily moved.
Some were already prepared to leave this place for good. After this incident, many believed the Five Burial Stars was no longer safe. However, they needed time to handle family affairs, and leaving the Five Burial Stars wasn"t so simple.
Everyone had different thoughts. Although the crisis on the Five Burial Stars had been resolved, everyone"s hearts were fluctuating. Their morale and prestige suffered a huge blow.
The heads of the five major families and eternal-stage ancestors naturally understood this point. Their expressions grew somewhat heavy, but they didn"t say much.
If someone wanted to leave, they wouldn"t stop them because they couldn"t stop them anyway.
Forcing these individuals to stay would only tarnish the reputation of the Five Burial Stars, discouraging other factions from settling there in the future.
Though the crisis had been resolved, restoring the former prosperity wouldn"t be easy. The Five Burial Stars were about to face its greatest difficulty in history.
Hence, the Five Burial Stars people harbored extreme resentment towards the Black Skull Universe Pirates. If not for the existence of the Black Skull Universe Pirates, they would have pursued them relentlessly.
If not for the Heishan Royal Clan, they would have fought the Black Skull Universe Pirates to the death.
Returning to the Five Burial Stars, the eternal-stage figures of the five major families learned that w.a.n.g Teng had previously resided in Yizang Xinnuo"s estate. Consequently, they did not arrange alternative accommodations for him and allowed him to continue staying there.
This situation only deepened w.a.n.g Teng"s embarra.s.sment. He truly didn"t know how to face Yizang Xinnuo and the others now.
"w.a.n.g Teng, you are the benefactor of my Five Burial Stars. Let bygones be bygones; there"s no need to dwell on the past," Yizang Xinnuo seemed to understand w.a.n.g Teng"s thoughts. She led the way and spoke calmly without turning back.
Beside her, Shouzang Caiyun"s eyes flickered. A woman"s intuition told her that something was amiss between these two.
Initially, both she and Yizang Xinnuo were interested in Han Zhu. However, some things happened later on, so she misunderstood w.a.n.g Teng. Their relations.h.i.+p wasn"t as good as Yizang Xinnuo"s.
Despite attempts to mend the situation later on, it hadn"t made much of a difference. A sense of distance had already formed.
Now, witnessing w.a.n.g Teng"s display of immense power and talent, she couldn"t help but marvel and feel a tinge of regret.
If she had maintained a good relations.h.i.+p with him, perhaps they could have gotten closer now.
