Chapter 24 Hard to Choose!
Gao Ge seems to enter a state of meditation.
He sits on the stone, motionless, like an old monk.
He is still thinking about four words.
Holding the strength inside.
The tree in his body seems to resonate with the stars in the sky. Perhaps they belong to a natural integration, but Gao Ge has not yet been clarified. He only knows now that the Star Tree inside can absorb the power of the stars in the sky, and he can take advantage of this. Although only a little bit left after the Star Tree’s absorbing, but for him, it is also a great energy.
And now this power is helping him push his martial meridians.
Gao Ge nearly cries after realizing that.
Given that he has eaten so many fruits in the secret realm, and also taken a bath in the Linghe River, the number of open martial meridians in his body has increased to more than 10. And now, he is certain that after leaving Mount Duanlong, 20 martial meridians could be gotten through with this stripe of purple aura’s assistance.
Now with the help of the power of the stars, it is not impossible to open more than 20 martial meridians.
Yet his face is lighted up by surprise after having that thought.
His martial meridians are gotten through successfully at a rather high speed after being washed by that force.
36 martial meridians are open at a blink!
Gao Ge is highly surprised at this.
Smoothly...
Everything is happening so smoothly!
At such an unbelievably high speed.
Even if he previously noticed the peculiarities and enormous strength of the tree, his psychological expectations were merely struck between 20 and 30 open martial meridians with the help of the star power.
However, his happiness does not last long, now a pot of cold water is poured.
Just as he plans to stand up and sing a cheerful song under the sky, he suddenly feels the vast energy boiling in his body uneasily.
And “boom”!
A sudden pain comes.
Just like someone rushing in and squatting his body with an axe, aiming at cutting off thorns.
Those former 36 martial meridians seem to be chopped off by a knife.
The power which did not absorbed by the Star Tree is torturing him. It is like a stupid driver who tries to slow down by stepping on the gas pedal and continues to move forward. After a “bang,” a sharp pain sweeps his whole body, instantly Gao Ge can only hear various pieces of broken voices, his body falls from the boulder, and squats heavily on the ground. Fortunately, a soft land is below, and there is a lawn there to slow down the impact, otherwise Gao Ge would have a severe concussion even if he survived.
“Gao Ge!”
Rui is shocked.
She rushes to the front and finds Gao Ge lying on the ground with his body curling up. He shivers, like an epileptic.
Looking at him, she dares not to stretch her hand out to touch him. Her mind is totally confused and stopped working under horror.
Is the toxicity of those wild fruits that strong?
Then why would she be fine after eating those fruits?
Not only is there no problem, but after eating the wild fruit, her body gets lighter, as if she ate some magic pills which make her so strong that she could walk up five flights of stairs without gasping. In fact, Rui has never realized how scary it would be if a human stopped breathing.
Deep in the jungle.
Yue Xincheng is now as tired as an old dog, he finally stops.
“Xia Lu, do you think my boss is dead now?”
Sitting in the distance, Xia Lu crosses her legs and closes her eyes in order to raise his spirit. She then asks, “Do you have any confidence in your boss?”
“I still can’t find him after all these hours!”
“Since we didn’t find his body, it means he hasn’t died yet.”
historical
Yue Xincheng pumps his mouth after listening to her words.
Sounds not that reasonable!
“You’d better mind your own business now. You would definitely die without my protection.” Says Xia Lu, sighing.
She is actually right.
Along the way, they did encounter many dangers in the process of searching for Gao Ge, such as some low-level monsters. Fortunately, they did not meet a middle-level monster like the Thunder Tiger. Otherwise, Yue Xincheng would be dead even he was protected by Xia Lu.
“A strong man in need of a girl’s protection.” Sighs Xia Lu.
“Well, that’s because my boss is not around!”
Hearing him, she hesitates and asks, “So are you going to become a superman if your boss is here?”
“No, but I would be protected by him instead of a girl!” Yue Xincheng’s voice becomes louder.
Xia Lu smiles ironically.
So bloody reasonable.
Mama nearly kneels before you.
After a while, she asks, “Do you think Gao Ge has something to do with Lyu You’s death?”
Yue Xincheng’s pupils suddenly tightened.
Though she insists that Lyu You was eaten by a Thunder Tiger.
Yue Xincheng gets the definite impression that that guy’s death involved Gao Ge.
After all, Gao Ge has dreamed of killing Lyu You for a long period of time. Over the days, he has been looking for opportunities.
Yue Xincheng takes a deep breath and smiles, “Seriously? Do you think he is powerful enough to kill Lyu You? You definitely overestimated him!”
Though he could find that Xia Lu and Lyu You aren’t that intimate.
On the contrary, Xia Lu seems to loathe Lyu You quite a lot.
Yet this would not make him trust her.
Nobody knows whether she will sell Gao Ge or not when danger comes.
Yue Xincheng is rather firm on this issue.
Xia Lu just smiles after hearing his words.
“Yeah, indeed. You know, although Gao Ge’s Qi conduction is quite good, he is limited to this. It is not really a good thing to practice. With the strength of Lyu You, a hundred Gao Ge are not his opponents.”
Listening to Xia Lu, Yue Xincheng is still somewhat unhappy. Though he manages to shut his mouth. He does not discuss too much with Xia Lu on this issue, but he keeps sneering inside his heart.
Pathetic Lyu You.
You were totally, completely dead.
And the woman you loved might become my boss’s wife!
No wonder you have such a sinister name...
He takes a glimpse at Xia Lu, thinking that she is quite gorgeous and definitely a fine match for Gao Ge.
Wait, no... What about Meng Jing?
Yue Xincheng can’t help sticking his nose where it doesn’t belong. “Both Meng Jing and Xia Lu are awesome women, which one is my boss’s Miss. Right?”
Then he starts to pull his hair and swear, “Bloody Libras!”
