The two old men stood up simultaneously.
Neither of them said anything.
They looked at each other.
In an instant, an invisible pressure brought some kind of oppressive aura to the entire hall of Chunjiang Restaurant, causing everyone present to feel a sharp pain in their minds as their heads buzzed.
Erniu, who had been eating a drumstick, dropped the chicken in her hand onto the ground. The forceful pressure made her head hurt and she cried, unable to take it.
Qi Qingyao also found it hard to endure, and pulled Erniu into her arms to comfort her.
Pang Juan heard Erniu crying and met eyes with Gongsun She. The two then retracted their power.
Gongsun She smiled very leisurely. “The entire restaurant wouldn’t be able to stand it if we fought here.”
“Then we’ll go on water! Lest we involve any innocent people,” Pang Juan suggested.
Gongsun She thought, ‘I was just taking pity on the little girl… Why mention the public?’
The two immediately flew out the window with smiles on their faces, like some celestial beings, and gradually went to Qingyang Lake beside them.
All of the guests of Chunjiang Restaurant felt as if they had been reborn after surviving a catastrophe.
They breathed in big mouthfuls of air.
They looked around blankly.
Suddenly, the pressure across the entire land became lower, and the sunlight seemed to have been taken away by something. The sky was gloomy and the clouds formed a shroud. A storm of wind and rain rolled in from Qingyang Lake, spreading to the sh.o.r.e. Heavy rain began pouring over Chunjiang Restaurant in no time.
A typhoon came rapidly.
The entire street was caught off guard.
Dense mist rose and enshrouded the surface of the lake because of the torrential rain, and the delicate fog cast a heavy shadow and blurring effect on the landscape.
This sudden change in the weather made Qi Qingyao frown. She walked to the window with Erniu in her arms and looked at the scenery on Qingyang Lake from a distance.
Those two people… could not be seen.
They could only see in the distance that the water surface had suddenly risen ten meters high.
It was like a “tsunami” was about to happen in the lake.
Then, the huge wave was abruptly swallowed by another force.
A moment later, killing intent covered the entire surface of Qingyang Lake. Standing behind this window in Chunjiang Restaurant, Qi Qingyao could still feel the murderous aura almost scaling off her scalp.
It hurt so much that she hurriedly crouched, leaning against the wall with Erniu in her arms.
The battle on Qingyang Lake had also attracted the attention of a lot of cultivators. The cultivators were of various ranks, with people from rank five to rank nine standing on the lakeside, overlooking the battle on the lake.
There were hungry gazes in their eyes.
Gu Cheng and Gu Shanshan, as well as Zhu Shen, could not help but watch the ruckus, crouched by the window.
Qi Qingyao, meanwhile, was sitting at the foot of the wall and contemplating things.
So this was the power of a grand master…
Si Jin’s power when he took on Jiang Yeqian and Li Ruoxuan together the other day should not be inferior to this, which was why the aftereffects of that fight still remained.
Those men said Erniu had natural talent.
Could Erniu perhaps grow up to reach this point in the future?
Qi Qingyao looked at her daughter in her arms with disbelief.
…
…
After learning that Gu Cheng and his group were in Chunjiang Restaurant, Xiao Wuji and Mo Yang rushed toward Chunjiang Restaurant on horseback, but they were shocked by the change in weather and the turbulence of the lake soon after they set off.
After they got off their horses, they led their mounts and stopped under the eaves nearby, sheltering themselves from the rain, while watching the commotion on the lake in the distance.
The two said nothing.
While their subordinates were shocked.
And obviously terrified.
Xiao Wuji thought to himself that this rain was unlikely to stop that soon.
He gave one of his subordinates a look.
The subordinate immediately rode their horse and hurried back. Soon, a carriage pulled by two tall horses drove past them.
After the two pa.s.sed the reins to their horses to their subordinates, they got onto the carriage and once again hurried toward Chunjiang Restaurant.
Only two subordinates sat in front of the frame and followed along. The others remained waiting for the rain to stop where they were.
Inside the carriage, Mo Yang and Xiao Wuji each lifted the carriage curtains and watched the intensity of the rain outside.
Xiao Wuji said, “This rain came very strangely.”
Mo Yang whispered, “It’s obvious the two grand masters have crossed swords.”
Xiao Wuji paused. He rubbed his chin and sighed. “I wonder if Shanshan and the others are still alive and well…”
“…”
Mo Yang immediately thought of that little miss who looked just like him. Who knew if…
….She was still alive?
